More than Human

This tread dying? I hope not.
Shit was about to get real.
@Chaos Wolf you want to continue? Post an epic mental battle between Mira and the mind invasion?

The Blood Compact

Throughout the ride Martin had barely given Void a chance to think, let alone asked him a serious question. So this one came as a surprise. Martin was being suspiciously mysterious about the cottage, the castle. While Void weighed his options Martin took off in the car again. Assuming that Void would be fine on his own. He was in good hands here, and if he would follow, they could give him directions.

Several hours later and finally chronically aligning his story line with his mark Martin arrived at the Castle. It seemed like just another expensive mansion. But a glance at his phone revealed signs of tampering. "Illusions... fun." He muttered as he parked the car on the other side of the street and got out.

Martin took a deep breath... And with feigned confidence he marched over to the front gate.
There was certainly no sneaking up on this mansion. He didn't see any guards or camera's, but that didn't mean they weren't there. Assuming even the least, someone would notice him either way. Thus there was no point in stealth.

Now all there was to do, all that he could do, was wait. Wait for someone to greet him, and bring him inside.
Be it as guest or prisoner. They always bring you inside.

Hello again people. It's been 5 days, so I'm going to move my pieces along.
Void is fast enough to catch up if @Grombus comes back and decides Void want's to go to Carfax. Otherwise he can go into the cottage.

I'll be active.

I'm going to leave Hale in Kilo Point, he can't fly.

Gonna start on my post for Martin now.

The Blood Compact

Martin and Void are not anywhere near Camelot.
Martin wished he knew where Camelot was. Or even knew for sure it exists.
They are standing in front of a lovely bed and breakfast cottage in the middle of nowhere.

The Blood Compact

After jacking a car, getting on a plane and driving another long drive trough endless countryside, they finally arrived at a small cottage on some field in Wales.
Martin had talked pretty much throughout the journey about all manner of sorts of supernatural creatures, and the variation of powers documented in the most powerful among them. How it inspired the world of humans to create cultures of myth and religion around the creatures.
How it was up to the gifted to choose, if they would be gods to the world, would they save or condemn the world.

The car stopped and so did Martin's talking.
He was silent for a moment as he checked his phone again while Void looked around him confused.
Without a word he stepped out of the car and picked up a bag standing next to the neatly painted white picket fence.
He put it in the trunk and got back in the car where Void was looking at him like he was insane.
"Yes we are here, this is home. And now you have to make a choice.
I am going to the famous Castle Carfax."
He showed a blurry picture on his phone showing a plane painted in British colors.
"Satellite pictures or something, weather balloons, I don't know. But I got coordinates to probably Contagion, probably a nest full of vampires and most likely: at least one old blood.
But you got to see shit through to the end right?
You however can choose to come with me on that mission.
Or you can choose to go in there and and our team will help you finish your training.

Do you want to secure your sword? Or learn to be as powerful as you were meant to be?"

The Blood Compact

Who is going to play the queen?

The Blood Compact

I'll go work some more. Tonight I post again.

The Blood Compact

So if Void comes along to Wales.
Can I write a timeskip so they can catch up with the rest?
The travel would bog down the game speed and make people in England wait for ever.
I assume you guys will do the same with the other characters in kilo point that are going to England.

If Magnus is invited, will he bring Hale too? Consider my last post involving Hale to be 'end scene' for him there, It's not really exiting to watch him make his way back home. So assume he does and go along with whatever Magnus has planned next.

The Blood Compact

"That's right, all they do is fight. Humanity is doomed as the inevitable vampire threat will wipe them all out eventually...
And in result they will wipe out themselves. We are at the edge of the end times and knowing the ending makes it all quite.. predictable."
Martin gestured suddenly and wildly with his arms.
"So let's add some chaos then! Let's do something that'll throw the status quo in disarray. And maybe save the world!"
Martin smiled wide while his voice got more and more exited.
"Let's kill all the old bloods."

Martin pulled out his phone.
"To do that we'll be going back to the British isles. We'll catch a plane to Wales. Where we'll learn you to kill and cure.
Meanwhile I'll see if I can find Contagion.. Hold on."
He dialed a single tone and plugged the phone into his headphones.
"Hello? Yes, still alive... #7251 status:. ehm.. interested.. yes. #7252 status: unclear, perceived to be in the hands of the old blood 'Mithias Varomere'. I'll send you his data, including phone number. Yes, please track his phone. I suspect him to be in great Britain... I'll send you the footage of the plane that I pulled from the control tower.
Oh and one more thing, the airport here has been put out of commission indefinitely, I could use an extraction. Houston Airport? Ok. Martin out."

The Blood Compact

Martin could hardly believe himself when Void sat down and agreed to sit and await capture.
Not that he was in any way capable of capturing him now...
Well.. best not to disappoint him and go talk to him.
The speakers were broken.
Martin walked out of the control tower, again in his hazmat suit he strolled out over the field to meet Void.
He waved calmly, then sat down.
"Sorry for the messy welcome. I'll admit it wasn't my intention to draw all those people in."
His voice sounded muffled trough the plexiglas mask, but a vampires heightened hearing would have no trouble with that.
"Now then. You've had a taste of the world outside. Was it as you expected it to be? Can I convince you to come back to the lab now?"
