[Everette Jason Evans]

He walked through the darkness, his red iris's glowing. The world - everything, we now in a red blur. He could feel everything, but it was new. It wasn't the beautiful lights of LA he was seeing anymore, it was darkness. She - she did something to him, and the blood was pounding in his ears. Falling to his knees, he fell in a puddle of his own vomit. It poured out of his mouth, whatever it was she was forcing down his throat. He felt - evil. More darkness then anything. The magic inside him, his friends and family weren't in his mind right now. It was just - destruction and death. A tormented psyche was being slashed deep like the razor claws that replaced his hands. He looked around, and could hear noises so quickly he moved. Before he knew it, his claws her stabbing into the bricks as he scaled himself up the wall, looking down. What he saw was something he now wishes he didn't, but at that time he was licking his lips in delight. He could hear their hearts beating, and he wanted his teeth ripping into them right now. And this was all because of two people, Axel and Farra.

After seeing Lily off, he was taken by Farra. He tried to put up a fight, but when Axel appeared he was no match. They tied him down in Farra's penthouse, a beautiful place where the owners could be found in pieces in the closet. He remembered some chanting, no language he had ever heard before, he remembered the demonic laugh of Axel's and everything going dark. He awoke in an alleyway feeling strong, but tainted. Feeling invulnerable, but covered in darkness. The taste of the potion stinging his throat, and blood covering his hands as claws errupted from them. Now he was on a wall, looking down at juicy specimens as they passed like a kid in a candy-store, his mouth dripping with saliva until the time was right. But Ev knew what was happening to him. Being annoited by a hell itself, the claws, the animalistic tendancies - he was a hellhound. Just his luck right? Looking at them, he released from the wall.

A loud growl escaped his mouth as he fell towards them. Two girls and a guy as they looked up. Ev could hear them scream oh too well, and landed between them. The girls screamed as they backed towards the wall, and the guy stepped up to play the tough guy. Ev's viciously red eyes haunted through the shadows as clear as day as he moved towards the guy. He felt a punch across his face, forcing Ev's head to move to the side slightly before he launched a swing back at the dude. He slashed the guy across the face, feeling his claws break the skin and rip the guy a new mouth as the girls screamed. Grabbing the guy by the shirt, he tosses him across the alley and at the wall. Upon impact, the guy fell to the ground and Ev spun to look at the girl. Which one first? Too many decisions, and looking at the girls he moved closer to the point that he almost breathing on them. He could smell the tears falling down their face, hear the shaking of thei bones in fear and hear the sobs from them. It was beautiful!

[kido]

Something wasn't right... His brother should be here by now... It was supposed to be an easy job... Just escort a couple of older brother's daughters to school if they went out for to long tonight... Jyo went on ahead despite his head telling him to stay with those girls through it all... He only knew this was him knowing what he shouldn't, but he couldn't understand what was happening... He wished these feelings were more direct.

Jyo cursed, it was just make sure a couple of girls new to town stayed in their dorm for the first week... It should be that easy... Why was this that hard? He started at a run towards where the girls should be coming from. They had to be safe, they were his nieces, his brother would never forgive his own siblings if these girls were hurt.

He didn't take long to find them, but it wasn't good. "What the hell?" he asked the open air. The girls were screaming, trying to protect each other from some creature in front of them... Jyo felt that he shouldn't harm the beast but at the same time, his sisters. He pulled his weapon and pointed it straight... He had taken it from his sister Yolie, it was built to take out Vampires and Werewolves... Would it work on this thing?

"Hey!" he called out. "How about you pick on someone with more meat on him?" His teeth showed in a vicious smile. His shoulders were down and relaxed, he was ready to move... What would happen here? What would happen tonight? What was happened? He kept his breathing regular so he wouldn't panic, he had to be strong for his nieces...

[Everette Jason Evans]

Blood red eyes turned to the voice. His claws were just seconds away from slashing at the girls when the man's voice distracted him. It rang behind him as he looked at them and at the weapon they held. Cool, but it wasn't going to stop him. No one could, and as his eyes gazed over him he took a glance to this guy. He didn't recognize him, that little hint of Everette left in this animal didn't remember who this man was. But he was standing up to him, up to a monster and holding his ground. But he was scared. He could tell, it wasn't hard too. The fanged teeth of Ev's bared themselves as a low ruble came from his mouth, drool falling down his chin as he looked at him. Words weren't going to cut it, but action was definitely needed. Looking at the weapon again, it made him angry. No one - repeat - no one, stands up against him right now. But there was something this dude didn't know. Ev wasn't just a hell-hound right now, but a three-sided witch. He looked at the guy, and then trailed his eyes in the path of the flying weapon as it hit the wall. Ev had telekinetically sent the weapon souring into the wall, as his red eyes trailed back to the guy. He had no idea how much Ev was going to enjoy carving the most unique shapes into this guys flesh. To play fetch with this guys still-beating heart, to endulge on his flesh. More meat on him? He wasn't lying.

So Ev charged forwards. As fast as what he hated, he shot at the guy like a vicious creature. Well - duh! Claws bared, his right one going into the air and preparing for the ultimate strike. You don't stand up to something like this with brutality and blood on the mind, a thirst for destruction that may never be fulfilled. He was going to kill these girls, maybe one after another, maybe at the same time. He was excited, and the little piece of him at the back of his own mind was disgusted. That little piece of humanity left behind to watch and scream as Ev brought down a razor sharp claw towards the guy. He hated that he tried to stop him - he really shouldn't have done it. But Ev decided to take it with a grand-assult, and watch the party start here. If he was actually going to get this guy or not was in question. In LA, nothing is what it seems. Who knows what could happen?

[kido]

He saw it comeing and released the gun... He doubted this thing would answer to silver and holy water anyway right? Not everything was related to... What was it called Judus-demons? He thought that's what Yolie called them... He watched as his only weapon flew away, not letting the beast out of his field of vision... He had two options... Niether looked very welcoming... He could stand and fight now, and die now. Or he could hold his own until the girls were gone and run himself. The later came with a hope that the beast would be mad enough at loosing the simpler meal and chase him till he could kill it.

Jyo didn't stand a chance at that speed... Holy Snake that was fast! Jyo lunged forward, under the initial attack, leaving his back open for the end of the swipe to catch him and tried to wrap his arms around the foul smelling beast. Somethings you don't see on tv about death. When someone dies violently, say with a gun shot in the back of the head for snitching, their body expels everything that had been in the intestines... Which is why you can tell what they had for the last meal, but not for the day before. Another things about death. The police don't always find the body right away, and it left an odor that never left your nose. Between the two scents... Jyo felt he could handle the stench this thing gave off...

"Run! Leave, NOW!" he shouted against the animal, looking for some way to hurt it. Quickly through his head he ran through a mental list of things that Yolie had told him to look out for... Iron, Salt, Silver, Water... The most holy items always held some sort of sway one way or another to harm a beast that would kill... To bad he was short on slaying supplies... Suddenly he knew... Run! There would be salt not far from here! He didn't know where, and he didn't know how, but he had to get there, and fast...

[Everette Jason Evans]

What the hell? As he swipped his claw down, the guy moved. He was hoping for a quick kill, but this guy was asking for it. His arms wrapped around Ev, forcing him to staggered slightly as the guy started yelling. He loved it when they screamed, but red eyes cast down to this guys back. How easy it would be to rip his spinal chord out and floss his teeth with it. He stood his ground now as the guy tried to hold him, but it wouldn't work. This wasn't a werewolf, this wasn't a wendigo or a monster. This was the pet of the depths of hell in this guy's presence. Fangs dripped with saliva as he calmly grabbed the guy over by the shoulder, prying him off of him without cutting him. This one had something, something that Ev knew he could have fun with. He didn't want to kill him just yet, soon but not right now. He wanted to have some fun with this guy first, so he ripped him off and sent him through the air, hoping to hurt him a bit. Oh, the joys of being an animal. All the fun without those pesky emotions.

SMACK! Someone hit him, and it swung his head to the side. What the? Again, something hit him in the stomach and forced him to bow before instantly being hit in the face again. Okay, what the fuck!? He swung in the air but then felt another hit, and another, and another. Finally it stopped as he barked, looking up and saw some entity lunging around the walls - like a cat. As a drop of blood came from his mouth, he grinned as he looked up the wall. Oh, this could be fun. But he had might as well make his own fun too, maybe piss this kitty off. He shot across the alley towards the guy he had smacked across and growled at him, preparing to swipe down on him once again with a loud roar. Oh, this was going to be soooooo fun! Little did he know how close to this cat he actually was. He was a friend, a confidont, a partner.

[Cruise Joseph Webster]

"Bitch, Ah'm movin'!". From the end of the alley, Cruise charged. Cruise was on the phone to Valla, who was basically screaming in his ear in Egyptian. Like he knows that, he might be an Egyptian Guardian and infused with the powers of a goddess, but he had no fucking idea about that language. He just addressed it as dead, and pretended not to hear it. All he knew right now was that Valla had a vision of a hellhound rising. He had no idea what it was, but it was sent from hell and in a powerful vessel, and was going after people. So he tracked it, and found it down in this alleyway. And he was just in time because as Cruise approached, his vision perception centred on the guy flying and the creature growling. Cruise didn't know if it was a wolf because it wasn't exactly grizzly, but all he knew was that this creature didn't have thoughts. It was blank - empty and fragmented as Cruise approached quietly. Okay, he had to act fast so hanging up on Valla as she kept screaming, he slipped his phone into his pocket as he took a breath, and shot forwards.

Shooting, he leapt as his hands gripped the edge of a dumpster and shot him further forwards, shooting towards the creature through the air and into the shadows. Landing right in front of the creature, she spun and shot a high kick up the creatures jaw. It staggered slightly as a smile curled over his lips. Okay, this might be easier then he thought. Sending a punch into its stomach on his knees, the creature bowed and he swung his foot over the back of him and his foot hit him in the face. The creatures head shot up, but he wasn't finished. Cruise followed through with the kick and flipped in the air, landing on his feet as he looked at it. It did seemed - familiar. Like he had seen this before. Ducking a claw, his head swung back as it whistled past. This thing wasn't going to get him, so he was just going to entertain himself a bit before tending to this other guy, and he could smell the blood of the guy laying against the wall with half of his face ripped off but focused on fighting this guy.

Shooting back up, a hard punch followed through and hit the creature in the nose. He had to get away soon before it got too pissed, so he swung a kick and floggered the creature across the face. Spinning with the kick until his back was facing it, he did a handspring and felt both his feet kick it in the face. His feet fell back as he found himself facing the wall. Okay, time to get away a little bit. So running forwards a few steps, he kicked off of the wall and launched into the air and towards the parallel wall, landing on it. Cruise galloped in a cat-like fashion across the wall fast. Okay, now he had to do something. Like a pole to stab through its face, or some wood. For fuck sake, trust this cat to be unprepared. No suit, no weapons, nothing. He didn't even have his ear-com in, so he was just five by five right now. But pouncing along the wall, he saw the creature going for the guy again. Thinking fast, he gripped onto a bar on a window vent on the wall and ripped it out. Losing momentum on the wall, Cruise tossed the bar into the air as he pushed off the wall, spinning and kicking the bar. It shot into the opposite wall, rebounding off of it and at the creature. That is the awesome thing about Cruise, he never misses. And he smiled in delight as he fell back down into the alley and faced his attacker once again.

[Marina Anne Sinclaire]

Mari came at a much slower pace than Cruise. She'd been out patrolling for her brother when Cruise had gotten a call and started running, "Sparks you douche you gotta warn me when you go all BA like that!!" she called to him as she popped on the scene and scanned a bit ahead with her empathy to get a heads up, "Jyo! Over here!" she called as she tried to get him out of the fray so Cruise could deal with this dog. She looked at it and it almost made her wanna vomit. There was something wrong with it; well apart from the obvious that it shouldn't even BE here.

"Time to put Frankinweenie down for the count, Sparks." she called as she tried her best to get to Jyo and offer some assistance. She was a long way from fighting. Keeping her eyes out she saw Cruise do his specialty before she herself was glancing about for anything that could be of use. This giant demon dog was not going to go down without a fight. She had to get Jyo out of here. "Jyo let Sparks handle this. Lets get you to a hospital to get patched up." the first rule was to get the civilians to safety. She exhaled and looked at the hell hound. This was gonna hurt.

Biting her lip she let her soul mending power loose, a gold light emanating from her and outwards like a star that was flaring. She staggered back as her power radiated and honed in on the hell hound trying to surround it. She didn't know what would happen. Would it blow up or would it totally turn into a puppy? Who knew?

[kido]

He felt himself peeled off the beast like a banana peel and tossed to the side like a used tissue. He grunted as he hit the floor... Beastie's mistake! He landed on his gun. Sure there would be a bruise there, and there was likely some damage to his arm where he'd landed on it to brace his fall, but none of this was new damage to him. He laid there for a moment, gripping his weapon.

But new noises started coming down wind, Jyo glanced up at the sound of a gun, and voices. He looked up to see the beast getting his ass handed to him. Suddenly it was no longer self preservation, but preservation of the beast. He understood fellowship, but why this beast and guy were chums he had no clue... He just had to stop them from killing each other. A new piece entered the puzzel that just made Jyo cus. Mari! Was she the salt? He shifted away from her, not likely the action she wanted.

Jyo shifted his shoulders as the beast ran at him. The gun went off, but certainly, that didn't mean anything... This thing came straight from the mouth of hell, one shot was not going to stop it. as it came bounding for him, Jyo's mind was clear. His only thoughts were that these guys were like him and Richard or him and Ken, and if they were about to kill eachother he'd want someone to stop them. At the same time however, he couldn't let Mari in this fight... She'd said one good thump could make her blind, and Jyo had just had a tase of one good thump.

"Stop, this thing it's..." He stopped rolling just as it got to him, he could only hope that it wasn't fast enough to stop before it hit the wall behind him. "It's human!" he panted as he rolled to a stop back on his feet gun changing postion between the beast and the new comer. "There's still a human in there!"
