From beneath his shirt, a faint glow appeared on either bicep as Jonas felt the renewed strength flow through his arms as the Vis contained within the tattoos enhanced his body. With a powerful shove, Jonas tossed the newly transformed Lou against the nearby lockers, giving himself some breathing room as he looked around to take in the scene. Aside from Lou who seemed to be concentrated solely on following in the direction that Aiden had taken Elroy, the other werewolves were herding the students into the gym. Not exactly typical hunting partners from Jonas' experience, werewolves were seldom this organized let alone this brash. Dropping into a boxing stance as Lou reared up again, Jonas feinted an attack before stepping out of the monster's way and delivering a swift knee to the creature's windpipe. Gasping echoed in the hallway as the frenzied lycan dropped to the ground allowing Jonas the opportunity to to climb on its back and wrap an arm around Lou's throat. Squeezing tightly, Jonas felt the beast struggle beneath him but as a minute passed, all fight disappeared as the beast slunk into unconsciousness. Standing up, Jonas turned back towards the gym, noting that there had to be nearly twelve lycans currently within the school. Far too many for even his old Master to take on without a proper weapon, and Jonas was no where near the old man's skill level. Turning towards the staff lounge, Jonas sprinted down the hallway all the while cursing the casual shoes he wore to blend into his cover as he nearly wiped out rounding a corner. Entering the lounge, Jonas spotted his briefcase, sitting exactly where he had left as he quickly popped it open. To another teacher, the contents wouldn't have looked out of place as graded assignments and tests greeted Jonas. Placing his thumb on the latch though, a subtle beep could be heard as a concealed finger print scanner acknowledged the correct print pressed up on it. A soft click released the false bottom as the tests were folded into the upper half of the case revealing its true contents. While Hollywood might have the public fooled into thinking monster hunters used more traditional weapons, Jonas had always been one to appreciate the benefits of modern technology. A pair of Beretta 92's stared up at Jonas as their silver finish highlighted the numerous runes carved into their casings. Loading a clip of 9mm silver tipped hollowpoint bullets into each of the guns, Jonas holstered one into his belt while arming himself with the other. It was convenient that werewolves, like many other things that went bump in the night, were afflicted by silver. Were it vampyres attacking tonight, Jonas would have found himself without a proper counter measure.[/INDENT][/INDENT] [URL=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGXzlRoNtHU][COLOR=SLATEGRAY][INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][H3][COLOR=STEELBLUE]S E B A S T I A N S C O T T[/COLOR]:[/H3][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][/COLOR][INDENT][sup][color=silver]8:05 PM, Night of the Dance | [i]Mather Memorial High School[/i][/color][/sup][/INDENT][/URL] [INDENT][INDENT]Turning to Winter, Sebastian's jaw was open in sort of an awestruck manner at Winter's absolute trust in Mr. Lehrer, the teacher was literally a mystery to his peers and students alike and yet Winter seemed content to leave it to the man to take on a pack of werewolves. [COLOR=STEELBLUE][B]"Look I know your lady flower is in full bloom for Lehrer, but I really don't think any one man can take on a horde of werewolves. Me? I'm fast, damn fast at that. Must have got it from my old man, don't really care how or why but I can get us out of here."[/B][/COLOR] He paused looking down below as his jaw dropped even lower at the sight of Rita's hand through a skull of one of the wolves while ice and fire seemed to emit from the hands. [COLOR=STEELBLUE][B]"Oh I can just join in with the other freak shows!"[/B][/COLOR] Sebastian added with a shrug as he turned to Winter with a wink. [COLOR=STEELBLUE][B]"Stay put Ice Queen, I'll be back to melt your heart in a wink."[/B][/COLOR] Sebastian said before back-flipping over the edge and disappearing in a whoosh of air and blur of motion. Running along the walls of the gymnasium, Sebastian tackled any wolf that got too close to huddled student body as he formed his own perimeter around the furry freaks. Suddenly a hand full of claws caught Sebastian across the chest causing him to lose his footing, falling from the wall and dropping to the ground as a werewolf stood over him, it's mouth open and snarling as saliva dripped onto Sebastian's face. It lowered its face to his, growling as the long claws descended on Sebastian before the slamming of the gym doors suddenly caught the beast's attention as it backed off. Turning his head to the door, Sebastian felt a sensation of dread wash over him as a figure entered the room.[/INDENT][/INDENT] [URL=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDyvClUsCJU][COLOR=SLATEGRAY][INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][H3]M A T H E R M E M O R I A L L O B B Y:[/H3][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][/COLOR][INDENT][sup][color=silver]8:10 PM, Day of the Dance | [i]Mather Memorial High School[/i][/color][/sup][/INDENT][/URL] [INDENT][INDENT]The hooded man entered into the school as he inhaled deeply, savouring the smell of burning flesh and acrid smoke. The frenzied sounds of chaos and fear rang in his ears like one of London's finest symphonies. Stepping over the body of a fallen wolf, the man in the cloak looked towards the gymnasium doors, a lip flaring in disgust as he noticed it was open. A girl had opened it, encouraging her class mates to flee while several 'abominations' had decided to use their grotesque abilities to defend the student body. Raising a hand, a silence seemed to fall over the room as the werewolves suddenly stopped, taking several steps back as they stood almost in a salute as the hooded figure took command of the room. [B]"[i]Cúlaigh[/i]!"[/B] He suddenly yelled performing a quick hand movement before Belle and any other students by the door found themselves lifted into the air and suddenly thrown into the middle of the gymnasium as the man took several strides forward. Entering the room, the doors slammed behind him as he looked around the room, studying the faces only for his lip to curl in disappointment once again. [B]"Out!"[/B] He ordered motioning to the remaining wolves. [B]"Return to the woods."[/B] Several barks and howls echoed through the gym as the pack made their way through the door leaving the hooded man and the cowering student body. [B]"Where is the one called Elroy Bain?"[/B] The man demanded though he was only met with silence save for the occasional whimper. [B]"No harm will come to him should you turn him over to me now."[/B] He paced towards Evander and Rita, noting the female's defiant look before spinning on his heel and coming towards Aiden. [B]"Your thoughts betray you boy."[/B] He hissed. [B]"For that, your classmates burn."[/B] As he began to move his hands before raising his left towards Aiden and uttering a single word. [B]"[i]Lámhach[/i]"[/B] As he spoke, Aiden's hands seemed to leave his body, flames erupted out of them against his will, roaring as their colour changed to a brilliant blue. All around Aiden, the heat became nigh unbearable for those close by as the flames escaped their creator, unleashing themselves on the dance floor. Out of the teen's control, the fire jumped onto the decorations, and spread throughout the gymnasium as alarms rang out while a cloud of smoke quickly descended over the scene. [B]"[i]Dearmad[/i]"[/B] The hooded figure spoke again as a ripple went out from his hand, passing over each student like a wave as their memories become foggy. The sight of werewolves replaced with images of flames igniting in the gym as the events of the night were wiped away and blurred together to tell a different story. Electronic devices fizzled and died as recordings and photos were deleted. Spinning around, the hooded figure disappeared out the double doors and into the hallway. For the first time that night, the blaring music was finally halted as Winter looked down on the unfolding scene, unbeknownst to her completely unaffected by the hooded man's spell.[/INDENT][/INDENT] [URL=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qi8q_t3le60][COLOR=SLATEGRAY][INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][H3]J O N A S L E H R E R:[/H3][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][/COLOR][INDENT][sup][color=silver]8:15 PM, Day of the Dance | [i]Mather Memorial High School[/i][/color][/sup][/INDENT][/URL] [INDENT][INDENT]Making his way through the hallways of the school back towards the gym, Jonas rounded a corner only to see the hooded man emerging from the gymnasium in a cloud of smoke as the reflection of flames illuminated the dimmed hallways. [COLOR=SLATEGRAY][B]"Stop!"[/B][/COLOR] Jonas yelled, keeping the guns concealed until he was absolutely sure. The man's hood turned to look at Jonas, before he started to move his hands. Raising his weapon, Jonas didn't hesitate to fire only for the man to react faster than the bullet could fly as he held up his hand, catching the bullet. A bemused smirk crossed the unconcealed chin before the man tossed it aside. [B]"A Venari? Here? I'm shocked."[/B] Mused the hooded man. [COLOR=SLATEGRAY][B]"Just as shocked as I am to find a Draoi no doubt."[/B][/COLOR] Jonas countered as his free hand hovered above the second gun. Circling one another, the two men stared each other down. Hurling a ball of flame, the hooded man made the first move as Jonas drew his second gun and fired a shot, followed by another as the Draoi countered the first. Dodging the second bullet, the Draoi waved his arms, sending a shockwave out that carried Jonas into the air and sent him sliding backwards. The Draoi clapped his hands, the ceiling above Jonas collapsing, burying the teacher as the Draoi turned and continued towards Elroy's location. Entering the girl's locker room as he ripped the door from its hinges, the Draoi moved towards the showers, finding not only Elroy but another girl with him. Looking at her, his luminescent red eyes seemed to glow beneath the hood as he knelt down and took a deep, audible sniff of the girl. [B]"I'll be back for you."[/B] He said, a cruel chuckle of mirth echoing in his throat as gloved hand reached out and gently stroked Tavia's face. [B]"[I]Dearmad[/I]"[/B] He cooed before disappearing with Elroy in a swirling mass of darkness. [hr] Coughing as he freed himself from the debris that he had been buried under, Jonas scrambled to the wall. Running along it, he pulled the nearest fire alarm before running back towards the gym. As sprinklers went off across the school, Jonas smashed an elbow through the glass window of the double doors. Reaching a hand inside, the rune on it glowed as he cried out. [COLOR=SLATEGRAY][B]"[I]Mhúchadh![/I]"[/B][/COLOR] Jonas watched as most of the flames were quelled before he broke the door open and ushered the students outside. Sirens echoed in the darkness as flashes of red and blue lit up the front of the school as fire, police and paramedics alike arrived. Tucking his weapons into the back of his belt, Jonas slumped onto the damp grass as he took a breath of the fresh air. This mission has just gotten a lot more complicated.[/INDENT][/INDENT] [URL=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6LGi2Y9GYk][COLOR=SLATEGRAY][INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][H3][COLOR=STEELBLUE]S E B A S T I A N S C O T T[/COLOR]:[/H3][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][/COLOR][INDENT][sup][color=silver]8:25 PM, Night of the Dance | [i]Mather Memorial High School[/i][/color][/sup][/INDENT][/URL] [INDENT][INDENT]Still reeling from the heat of the fire, Sebastian stumbled outside along with the rest of the students as he looked around for Winter. His head was pounding, worse than any hangover he had ever had. He remembered dancing with Winter and then being torn away by Rita, but after that it was just screams, heat and flame. He felt weak, as though he had been using his abilities, his stomach growled in demand of refueling but Sebastian couldn't will himself to move at the moment as the cool grass felt ever so inviting. His chest burned, as he looked down and noticed the scratch marks, and they weren't even the fun ones. Holding his head in his hands, Sebastian groaned as he sat up. [COLOR=STEELBLUE][B]"What the damn hell was in that drink?"[/B][/COLOR] He muttered to no one in particular.[/INDENT][/INDENT]
