In the void I see a memory, one from long ago during that night, me and Cole are the only ones left and the creatures are advancing toward us, some of them our former squad mates, knowing we were about to die Cole turn to me "Sarge promise me you'll kill me if I turn into one of those things" I can remember feeling unsure and distracted, until I said "I will Cole don't worry, and I ask the same of you" Just as Cole was able to reply the creatures lunged, I rolled away but Cole wasn't fast enough and was quickly bitten and mauled at until they stopped and turned to me, along with my friend and squad mate now shifted into a wolf like form. I remember the silver blade I had found earlier and pull it out.
The creatures then backed away from me and started to run, "Hell no" I mutter with hate and I charge at them, slicing at the creatures trying to make it to Cole to end his suffering, but I was surrounded and the being who was once Cole just disappeared.
Aftering seeing this play through I remember what was attempted to be pulled from my mind and I reach the light.
I wake up on the ground a couple hundred feet from where I was knocked out, feeling exhausted, "I made a promise and I mean to fulfill it" I say as I slowly walk back to the chateau. I make it to where I was but I fallout, the last thing I can remember was something either dragging me or carrying me towards the doors, "Not much longer buddy" I whisper as I leave the waking world for a needed rest.

"Wraiths? Are you serious?"
I look down a hallway and see a shadowy figure beckoning.
"Hell, I'm too tired to care, see you guys in the morning."
I follow the shadow to a decent looking bedroom, I slide my deposit box under the bead, throw my coat, hat and shirt over the chair and try to get some rest.

The banshee pair screeches as it stops outside a metallica chamber door.
"Thank you." Polo extends while entering the room and looking around. "Hmm, cozy."
He touches some of the decorations on the dresser before stripping down to his skivvies and jumping on the huge, comfortable bed.

I phase through the door to see Polo in nothing but his bare ass self. "Ahem..." I clear my throat.

Polo shoots his head up from the bed and sees Kammie standing before him with her arms crossed and eyebrows raised. He sits up, thinks for a bit, then in common courtesy he pulls the sheets over himself.
"What? I haven't changed my clothes all day, they're all dirty and stuff. Plus it's kinda hot." He explains. "Anyways, you looking for something?"

"Yes actually, I am. What are you...? You're not a Christain Myth..." I ask as a Banshee comes with a vast selection of clothing.

Polo rises up, impressed at the long line of clothing. He walks over to the wide rack, covering himself for the ladies--both "living" and dead--and picks out a stylish, comfortable silk robe. He tied himself while deciding where he should start.
"Well, I don't care whether you're trustworthy or not." he tells her apathetically while sitting on the bed. "I don't remember much from when before I was resurrected, but I do know I was born in the Philippines sometime in the mid-1300s, then was killed after my 22nd birthday. Then like 150 years later I was resurrected by shamen along with 80 others to help combat the Spanish conquistadors. We were labled "Revenants" by the shamen, were given enchanted weaponry, and were gifted with powers that are amplified during nightfall but are weakened in daylight."
He takes his Kris and places it on the table.
"Enough about me, what's it like being Death?" he asked with interest.

"Oh yeah, it'll do that." he says while inspecting Kammie's hands making sure she's alright. "Heh, I'm really sorry, should've warned you."
Polo picks up his Kris, grips the blade with one hand and the handle with the other, glaring at it for a few moments.
"There, now you can check it out." He says while offering the blade back to Kammie with a reassuring expression. "Though a heads up. You may feel a few...million things."

"I'm very well trained against mystical safeguards..." Isay as I pick up the Kris. "Oo..h..." I say as I become lightheaded. "What the hell...?" I ask as my vision becomes distorted and I see myself. "am I looking through your eyes...?" I ask.

"It's happening with you?" Polo asks while waving his hand in front of his face. "Interesting, it's only worked with two other people before...hey, try this out: concentrate on looking into the past. You should see some of my memories from the past 600 years."

After a few hours sleep I roll over and notice a will o wisp floating around. Glowing silently.
"Y'know what, this is probably the best time to get to work."
I go into an adjoining bathroom and wash up. Then grab my gear.
"Going out on the job. Tell the guys I'll see them later eh?"
The wisp rolls through the air a few times. I'll take that as a yes. I head out the front door trying not to disturb anything in the garden.
"Okay, first I need to find infromation about this town." I take a matchbook out to light a cigarette, then look at it for a minute.
"Valkyries."
I'm getting the calling again, I head back down the street and take the Kompressor.

No sooner would the angel have gotten into the Kompressor than he would hear something stirring on the back seat...
And Chezzy would slowly sit up, his fur ruffled and with twigs and leaves caught in it, a huge grin on his face. "Mnrr.. Hehe, I Told you you'd come back.. one cat-scratch is neve... oh." He blinked a few times, and then snickered. "Mornin'.

Chezzy tilted his head a little, pulling his jacket up over himself so it was only his furry chest visible again. Eep. Looks like he hadn't bothered to get dressed in the morning xD "Hmm? Oh, Sorry." He snapped his fingers, and he was fully clothed again, the twigs gone, one paw being licked before being used to slick down his headfur again. Seems the "get out" hint had been missed
"Where ya going? Hehe, Ditching your girlfriend little miss Death already?" He snickered some, nudging him with his elbow. "you playa."

"She is not my....why am I even explaining myself to you?"
I start the car up and head towards the vegas strip, following the address on the matchbook.
"Maybe I can find a vets on the way, have you put to sleep."

Chezzy just grinned widely, leaning back in his seat and stretching his arms out on either side, watching the world go by as they drive out. He didn't even seem to be bothering with a seatbelt. "Heh, because I'm just that cool, man." He grinned, and then laughed. "Hehe. I remember last time that happened to me. The colooouuurrs! Kekeke."

I pull over where the club should be, nothing but a run down builiding with steps leading downwards. I leave the car with the Cheshire.
"Why don't you go play somewhere? I'm trying not to get any un-needed attention."
I head down the steps into a tunnel leading to a door, two huge hooded bouncers stand outside, one seems to havea nose ring. The other carries a large blackjack, suited to his size.
"Check it M. Somebody looks lost."
"I see him T. Maybe he'd like to head the other way." Replies nose ring.
"I'm going no-where but inside." I tell them, better be forceful.
"Then you won't mind handing over your weapons."
I throw my gun and knuckles into a tray next to the door, 'T' slides it into a slot and gives me a ticket.
"Keep that with you if you want your stuff back."
'M' opens the door, then snorts at me as I walk inside.
ooc: Gotta go to my classes, see y'all later.

Chezzy just laughs and nods, scooting up into the driver's seat. "Hehe, I'll be keeping an eye on you.. I've got a feeling that You'll need me." He grins that Crescent Moon Grin of his. "I'll be back later to scrape you off the sidewalk. Hehe."
OOC: I best head too, really, got an exam at one.

I slowly wake up to a sight of a dark and Gothic style building, I guess it is inside of the chateau. I stumble up with effort and I notice my pendant glowing slightly, I grab it in my hand and I open it up, to see a amount of rune type characters glowing beneath the wolfsbane, I haven't noticed those before, then I get a unintentional flash a second into the possible future.
I see myself stumbling away from where I was asleep aimlessly. I look back down to my pendant and I notice the runes glowing brighter. Confused I get up and start stumbling around barely conscious, and not know where I was going.
OOC: the runes on the pendant makes his mind slightly stronger allowing him to access a more powerful ability to his precog ability's, among other things unknown.

Kammie begins to feel very uneasy as the images of Polo's past flashes before her eyes. She sees various terrible events throughout recent history; running across ferocious battlefields, she witnesses grisly deaths everywhere see turns before finding herself on the deck of a ship somewhere in the Mid-Pacific seconds before the crewmen in front of her is literally blown to pieces when he is hit by a cannon, only to see the next recollection of a street littered with dozens of poor, starving peoples in a village in Africa. The images flash by more and more quickly, and she catches glimpses of cataclysms, massacres, catastrophes, but on a more lighter note--the friends and women Polo's encountered through his years. In every flashback, the people seem to call Polo a different name.
"Whoa!" Polo exclaims worriedly, startling Kammie to drop the sword and bringing her back to reality as she takes on a queasy demeanor, looking as if she's going to faint or something. "Are you okay?"

It's a myth only place, must have some kind of enchantment to make the normals ignore it. Everyone seems to have a talent going on. The waitresses and the girl working the bar seem to be sirens, humming gently to create an easy going mood. I pull up a stool at the bar.
"What can I get ya?" The girl tending bar asks.
"Three measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it very well until it's ice-cold, then add a large thin slice of lemon peel."
"Comin' up." She winks.
I take a look around, seems mostly people here to chill, better wait a while.
"Jake Angelo?"
I turn only to recieve a powerful slap from one of the waitresses.
"That's for walking out on me!" She storms off.
What the hell did I do? I'm beginning to wonder if I want my memories back.
"If you're quite done been a heartbreaker sir." I turn at the voice. It's 'T' again. "The owner would like to see you."
He shows me up some stairs to an office.
ooc: I'll continue after the next post.

I continue wandering around half awake and half asleep, with the memory of that night keeping me going until I completely pass out from exhaustion, the last thing I hear before I pass out however is a loud screeching.

Post by Scorpio on Jun 7, 2007 16:51:22 GMT
I open the door to the office, inside is a wizned looking orientla man in traditional Mandarin clothing.
"Jake Angelo, it's been too long. How've you been?"
"Umm, fine. Keeping busy. How about you?"
A smile forms across his face.
"You okay Jake? You seem a little....confused."
"I'm fine, what did you want?"
He pulls a key out of his desk drawer. It looks like it might fit my deposit box.
"You asked me to hold this until you get back." He holds it out.
"Great, I'll just take it then." He pulls it back.
"Not so fast Jake, it doesn't take an idiot to see that you've got no idea who I am. What happend to your memory Jake?"
"Fine, I don't know. ut maybe I can find out if you give me that key."
"and lose my leverage?"
I lunge across the table and slam his head on it.
"Would you rather lose your life?"
"Ay-ah. Fine! Take it." I take the key and put it in my pocket.
"Much obliged." I head back down into the main club area, most have cleared out except for the staff and three identical stockbroker types playing pool. 'M' and 'T' block the exit. A p.a clicks on.
"Get that assh*le! I want his wings for a trophy!"
ooc: I'm just doing this in bursts.

As I lay there I begin to dream. *dream* "Damn spooks" I say to myself, "I bet they knew what was going on over there, but sent us anyways." I exit the main gate waving to the Private manning it. I walk back to my apartment to find a note on the TV, I walk over to pick it up. Opening it I find a letter saying my wife had left me. I throw it down commenting "Bah better anyway, she don't need to be around me anymore." I go over my bed and grab a box out from under it.
I open the box and take out the silver blade from the night weeks ago and hold it in my hand, "Might as well take this to the general" I say as I put it back in the back and leave the apartment. It is night now and a moon is shown full. As I walk down the street back to the base I notice someone following me, I turn into an alley. "Who are you?" I ask as more people start to show up around me, I notice the moon come from behind a cloud and the people start to change "Oh sh*t not again" I mutter as I open the box ad take out the blade, "You want me, well come and get it" I say to the now wolfin figured hulking towards me.
One lunges at me and I swipe at it with my blade sending it into painful spasms. Another two lunge at me, I dodge one and swipe the blade down on the others neck, decapitating it, the other one regains its footing as it charges at me, while the rest are now charging at me also.
I am fighting fiercely and avoiding bite attempts, I slice open at least 5 or 6 more, making the others back away before lunging again. As one of them is closing it's jaws on me a high powered gun shot cuts into the chaos. The one that was about to bite me head exploded. A Old man jumps down from the roof tops with a shotgun in hand, "Need some help son?" He asks me as other lunges at me, I swipe at it making it fall back, "What do you think" I say to the older man as he raises the gun, firing into a group of them, leaving only 2 or 3 left, which I quickly take down.
I walk over to the man who introduces himself, "Names Gus son, you alright?" "I'm fine, thank you sir" I say as I walk up to him. "It's been a long time since I have seen somebody fight Wolf like that, that must mean the rumors are true" He says to me while looking around slightly. "What rumors?" I ask the old man, "that a Wolf village was practically wiped out by a special force unit, with only one survivor, which I take it as your him as only people who have fought Wolfs before would have kept there cool" He says to me. "What of it old man?", "Well I need a nice young man to take my place, you see I am a hunter, I kill super natural beings for money or other things, and they way you handled those wolfs you could be the best" "yeah well I ain't interested, thanks for helping me anyway" I say as I begin walking away, "There was another rumor though, that one of the men was turned and got away" I turn back to him surprised, "What do you know?" I ask him, "Only that if you take me up on my offer that there is a better chance of finding him then by yourself, safer to."
I think about it and I say, "Fine but on one condition, I don't get paid for Wolf jobs" The man thinks for a bit, "Alright then I guess, follow me" I do and we leave the alley and head to a old laundry store.
Back at the alley where the corpses were beginning to rot a cold wind passes through and a Asian women steps out of the void wielding a scythe, and reaped the souls and bodies of the Wolves.
*dream over*
(OOC: hope you don't mind I put you there jax, after all it doesn't effect what is going on ATM,at least much, as this is a memory.)

Chezzy would poof into existence at the bar, turning for a moment to tip his hat to the siren waitress and give her a wink.. before picking himself up and padding over so he was behind Jake, putting his paw on his shoulder and leaning over some. "Trouble, Hun? Hehe, want a little help?"

"Why don't you just go play with a yarn ball?"
'T' and 'M' step up and pull down their hoods. 'M' exposes his elongated jaw and his horns, whilst 'T' shows off his stone like skin. 'T'roll and 'M'inotaur.
"Go get yourself a drink M, I'm gonna flatten this punk."
T steps forward hefting his smackjack. I hold my hands out signaling for him to wait.
"Hey hold on, this is a little one sided. I mean, you're about 8 feet tall, I'm just over 6 and a half. You got that club, I got nothing."
"Yeah, that's how we win."
"Don't you know the rules to this kind of thing?"
"Rules?"
"Yeah, first off, you can't do this!" I kick him in the crotch, bringing him down to his knees.
"You can't do this." I poke both his eyes.
"And you never do this!" I floor him with a barstool. M starts fuming, hot air billowing from his nostrils.
"You'll be a stain on the wall in a minute hot shot!"
He charges, I step to one side grabbing his nose ring, running him head first into the wall, his head jamming straight into it. I look at the deteached ring in my hands, must have came out. Looks expensive.
"I'll be taking this as compensation." I head for the door, the P.A clicks on again.
"Morons! Morons on my payroll! You three! Free drinks forever if you kill him!"
The three men playing pool turn towards me. The one in the centre bursts into flames, the left one shifts his lower body into a small tornado and the right one turns into a man shaped tower of water.
"Elementals. Eh?"

Chezzy shrugged some. "Huh. If you insist." He then grinned, padding over to the bar to both catch a drink while he watched the fun.. and see if he could best his personal record at charming the pants off a woman =P

Fire leaps toward me and starts swinging. Water slinks along the floor and attacks from behind. I duck around them almost recieving a burn across my face.
"I hear opposites attract. Tell me if that works."
I dive aside their next punches and let them hit each other. Fire gets his arm doused out whilst water gets part of his stomach boiled.
"Guess not."
I get thrown across the room by a huge gust, landing against the pool table. I grab a cue and get up to face the wind elemental.
"You're gonna regret this the rest of your life. Both seconds of it."
I start swinging, but the cue goes right through him.
"Can't catch the wind jackass!"
I look up towards the ceiling fan. Throwing the cue like a javelin I dislodge it sending the spinning blades right at him. He gets dispersed across the room.
"Okay. I'm leaving now. I hope no-one objects to that."
I hand my ticket in at the coat room to get my stuff returned and head back to the car.
