Path of the Vampire forum

Mortll lead him to her office and sat down she called and had some drinks brought from the bar . She motioned for him to sit down on the chair opposite her desk. She looked at him levelly. She really needed to find out what all he had been told had her childe breached the masquerade and told him everything . "I think you need to tell me about this cousin of yours I may be able to help you find him " She smiled and offered him a drink .

He sat the drink down on the desk in front of him. "Why do you want to know about my cousin?" She did know something he was on the right track! He studied the room his eyes narrowed as he awaited her answer. This woman was named by his cousin trusted her and now he was missing so what was it that she knew of his disappearance and why was she so curious about him if she already knew who he was?

(The following was a live chat rp ))

Mortll: She leveled her gaze on him " You want to find him don't you I cant help you do that if I don't know anything about him or who you are looking for ?" she smiled and put her feet up on her desk leaning back in the chair



Leonitus: He studied her what was her angle what was her game "He was a farmer, and then just up and left and then just appears in this city, some of his hands say he died but then he didn't cause he turned up here. His name was Kalamity. So how do you know my cousin?" he asked bluntly



Mortll: Her face remained straight She tried to reach into his mind and pull exactly what he knew forward but it was everywhere she couldn't grasp on what he was thinking at the moment. "Ahhhh Kalamity yes i knew him He was a good guy but I haven't heard from him in quite awhile .... I don't know where he got off to ."



Leonitus: "Why don't you start by telling me how you know my cousin?" his look became stern and gruff "and how did you ever get to meeting him"Mortll: "He's a farmer i own a flower shop ... i like organic fertilizer He had plenty of cow **** " she let herself smile a bit it wasn't a lie but not exactly the truth .



Leonitus: "he was half a world away what were you doing in Ireland?" I think you are not telling me the truth" his intuition was always right on and now he felt he had to be more guarded then ever before what was this woman's game and why did her stair make him so uneasy?



Mortll: Mortll smile didn't waver "I was on a working vacation I was looking at a variety of native Irish wild flowers to possibly add to the shop Your cousin had a nice place many of those flowers grew in the region "



Leonitus: "My cousin ran cows or did till they started being slaughtered in the fields!" his voice grew stern and full of anger "How did you know my cousin?" he asked bluntly



Mortll: "I met him while i was searching his fields and we got to talking about the plants and fertilizer... he was something else i offered to bring him over for a bit if he could help me set up a organic situation here Run a small operation he could take all the profit from the cows if he sold me all the organic cow **** ... It was going quite good until he disappeared "

(the following was live rp chat)

Leonitus: "I want to know what happened to my cousin he demanded!!"Mortll: "Didn't your cousin tell you anything when he left ?"



Leonitus: "no he just disappeared said the cows were being killed and the hands were running off and then he just disappeared. I got a letter from him a couple months back saying he was in Harpers Rock and had met someone, I am assuming it was you since he mentioned I should come find you if anything happened to him."



Mortll: "He was living with a girl that he met while he was here ... She is a waitress at a friend of mines Tea house. Her name was Karema. But she doesn't know where he got off to either . He just up and left .



Leonitus: "Mort I like you but I am not sure you are being straight up with me, what's going on in this town? What's with all the night life and why do people seem so strange? Karema who is this Karema?"



Mortll: She could tell he wasn't going to let up asking questions she needed to ask a few more of her own before she made up her mind though "Did you contact the authority's about your cousin disappearing ?"



Leonitus: "authorities here in this place what a joke, they don't know half of what's going on under their noses. No I didn't contact anyone except myself and I plan on finding my cousin!"



Mortll: He was going to keep digging and digging she knew what he would find . She closed her eyes She had slipped the lock on the door as they had come in . "You really shouldn't keep on looking for him ... He wouldn't want you to I don't see how he would want you to suffer what happened to him" She looked at him levelly "If you leave now and know that your cousin is where he wants to be Go back to Ireland and run his Ranch ill even set you up to buy livestock go live and be happy If you keep digging here It will only lead to bad things "



Leonitus: He stood up, "digging I haven't even begun to dig into this town, I will find him and when I do it had better be for the best or someone is gonna pay dearly." Now he was angry with her he didn't trust her one bit and he was sure she was hiding something but what was it?

Mortll: "Sit down " her eyes darkened ..."He's not here He's not anywhere ... He's gone simply gone He couldn't deal with what he become or he just didn't want to keep on but he is gone ..." Sit down .... But I cant tell you what happened to him I just cant not without you staying alive or" She stopped realizing what she almost said Was she going to give him that choice because once she started that story he would have to make that choice either he stayed here in Harper Rock and upheld the Masquerade or he would die .



Leonitus: "Or what he demanded from her, what are you hiding from me?"



Leonitus: He paced the room and was growing volatile, he felt the walls closing in, what was this god damn secret this town held and what happened to Mity? The questions were piling up. finally he looked at her straight eye to glaring eye. "Show me!"



Mortll: 'I really ,really wish you had stayed in Ireland ... If i Show you, you stay here in this town forever or you die Its your choice "



Mortll: Or you can leave now and never come back "



Leonitus: He looked at her what choice did Mity make, cause I need to find him. or what's left of him. Show me the secrets this town holds"



Mortll: "Sit down ' She motioned and waited for him to take is seat .



Leonitus: He sat down his eyes fixed on her, Mort, what the hell is this place and who are you, tell me so I know what happened to him, please...."



Mortll: "Are you sure you want this because once i start You will be stuck here I cant let you go its that simple "



Leonitus: "Cant let me go what the hell are you talking about?" His agitation was growing again "I want the truth Mort the damn truth with all this, you, this town, every last bit of my cousin, what the hell is going on here?"



Mortll: **** it she thought ' "Your cousin died in Ireland before he came here "



Leonitus: "his face went white "what the hell are you talking about?"



Mortll: 'His cattle were being mutilated along with other farmers in the area I was on vacation and got curious so decided to track and see what it was ... It was a rouge vampire doing away with your cousins livestock " she looked at him like that would explain a lot .



Leonitus: "Vampire?" what the hell are you talking about?"



Mortll: "I'm talking about what i am and why i cant let you go "



Leonitus: He stood back up looking into her eyes deep and foreboding, " A vampire?" he chuckled "ok you have lost your bloody mind" he looked at her in astonishment "what your gonna bite me and turn me into some Vampire? " The very thought made him laugh out loud. " Ok then lets see how this works" He raised his head and closed his eyes "ok vampire turn me!" he said with a chuckle



Mortll: He was taller than she was but she was across the desk in a second and had him by his shirt his feet were lifted off the ground despite his obvious weight and height advantage .Her fangs were bared and she smacked him hard across the face ... "Dont joke with me or i will do it right now before you fully understand what you've gotten yourself into "



Leonitus: He was astonished at her strength and agility and when he saw the fangs he almost lost it. "is this what happened to him is this the secret you changed him?" He was not intimidated by the creature before him but confused at why she didnt just kill him where he stood, he knew there was a secret her just had to push the right buttons and now he had.



Mortll: "Now your going to sit down and listen to what i have to say .. 'Your cousin was a good man ... and i didn't want to turn him ... There was a accident This Rouge vampire that i found had been slaughtering his cattle i killed it but not before It had stampeded the cattle .. Your cousin had come out to see what all the commotion was about and got caught in the stampede .... He was dying by the time i reached him he was almost gone i couldn't do anything except offer him this cursed life and he chose it instead of dying. That's why he came to Harper Rock . I guess he didn't like the lifestyle much i don't know why but hes gone. "



Leonitus: He looked at her and for the first time he saw the truth in her eyes, "so that's why he left the farm, and everything, and you, you tried to save him? Mity was never good around people, or whatever this town is full of" He smiled at her " Thank you for the truth Mort" He knew when people were honest or lying just one of the many talents he had, he could judge them in seconds. "So I guess this towns secret is you?"



Mortll: "She sighed No its more than that its why i cant let you leave now you have a choice either you become like me and uphold the secret or you die "



Leonitus: He looked at her, I am the last of my line, with Mity gone there is nothing left of our people, we are an ancient people, Tell me Mortll if I choose to walk out that door, you would erase my line from the earth, or I can walk a cursed path and forever hold true to our name, I choose the cursed path, we can not die out that easily," He sat there and waited....



Mortll: If i do this you have to understand you can never tell any humans what you are and you have to protect the masquerade the fact that we exist from being known ."



Leonitus: "Mortll, If I am to die I want to do it along the same path as Mity, to know what he knew, So do what needs to be done."



Mortll: "I will make this as painless as possible but you will feel weak and you will die she brought out a large stainless pan and pulled the knife from her boot she sat the pan on her desk "Take off your shirt and pants we don't want to get them bloody "



Leonitus : He slips from his clothes and sits back in the chair, "I find out what happens to Mity, and those responsible will pay. Do what you need to do."

Mortll: Mitty left on his own nobody did anything to him you are already on the road she looked at the nude man sitting in her chair levely. She placed her hand on his head and cut his throat in one swift movement and placed the pan where it was catching the majority of his blood .

Leonitus: He sat there feeling the life drain from his body

Mortll: Mortll moved the pan and pulled his head back she closed her mouth over the now barley gushing wound she could feel his heart slowing as she drank heavily going ,going .... she stopped and cut her wrist lengthwise bringing forth a fount of blood Mortll forced his head back and put her wrist to his mouth letting the blood flow inside .

Leonitus: he choked as the warm blood trickled into his mouth he could feel his instincts to fight back but it was to no use


Mortll: She laughed " Not afraid of dying ?

Leonitus: Nope why would I be?

Leonitus: Why would I be afraid of what comes natural to all living things *he says through choked words*

Mortll: The wound from her wrist was already healing "Just wait " she laughed a bit she was feeling weak from her blood loss she turned the pan up and started to drink his blood . She paused and wiped her mouth keeping a close eye on him for the death process to begin. Death was usually messy no matter how well it was planed .

Leonitus: *he smiled up and gave her a look then his eyes fell silent*

Mortll : She watched Usually dead people evacuated she didn't know why but it was something muscular at least it wasn't a expensive rug she looked at the bit of blood that already was staining it she chose these rugs because of the backing if she ever was messy they were easily disposed of and burned leaving no evidence anywhere but on the rugs themselves .

Leonitus: His body lay still and cold in the chair*

Mortll: She waited maybe It did not take ... Sometimes it took longer sometimes it was almost instant. She started to clean up the mess She wiped her knife and put the pan under the chair just in case. She walked over and lifted one of his eye lids nothing seemed to be happening there. There was no breath but that wasn't unusual vampires did not have to breath. She hoped she wasn't going to have to dispose of a whole body .

Leonitus: *the light was bright, he could see movement but not make out the objects quiet yet, he heard her movement it was loud and clear the clinging of the stainless steel the smell the smell was strange yet satisfying, he felt the first bit of air reenter his lungs * So this is it he whispered

Leonitus: She turned as she heard him whisper. "Not yet your body hasn't finished dying but it will. but you will feel an awakening too. You will have new powers every day but you must feed daily to grow them ."

Leonitus: feed???

Mortll: Blood you have to drink daily well nightly you have to get used to the night life your days of loving the sun are over.

Leonitus: He groaned and moved his hands he tried to grip the arms of the chair, he wanted to stand, * how long will this last?

Mortll: She went to the refrigerator and grabbed a blood pack she brought it over to him here this should tide you over until you can feed she held the pack out to him seeing that he couldn't take it she ripped it open with her fangs and held it to his mouth .

Leonitus: He drank the cold blood it tasted much differently then he had expected he could feel it almost coursed through his body, *

Leonitus; So what now Mortll, you own my soul or what?"
He was surprised to see his wounds had healed and he could felt stronger, it took but a few seconds and his body reacted to the nutrients in the blood he stood up stretched his long frame and felt the new sensations of being dead.

Mortll: "No it doesn't work like that You are free but its my job to instruct you and make sure you know the rules so that we all can stay alive "

Leonitus: He looked at her with deep strong gaze* "Well I guess then you should know I am still gonna look for Mity even if it means I die trying

Mortll: 'I don't think you understand when i say he's gone ... This place has a pull on us ... there is this void here that you go to when you die ... and here it is thin the veil between life and death if you are strong enough even if you die as a vampire you are able to come back ."

Leonitus: Then Mitty will be back I know it

Mortll: "No he's not there ... from what i can tell he moved on to whatever happens He is no more "

Mortll: "I may be wrong but ... she shrugged . I will need to show you how to feed those blood packs can be found in a lot of pawn shops around town along with illegal weapons and a few other things they aren't hard to find ."

Leonitus: He looked at her and a growl hinted in his voice I will find a ways to find him......

Mortll: He was my childe he was tied to me . But i can see your going to have to see for yourself you can grow your powers and gain those that will help your search but you can go to any telepath and they can show you that the tie is gone .

Mortll: Only one way that tie goes

Leonitus: So you cared about him?

Mortll: Yes i cared about him ... he was a good man

Leonitus: He walked over to her and hugged her tightly* "then thank you, but you must understand the need I have too look"

Mortll: She hugged him back but felt a bit uncomfortable having a totally nude guy hugging her. I think you might want to clean up there is a sink over there and you wont be able to see yourself in mirrors anymore ....Use a laptop to see yourself .
Mortll: And get some clothes on .

Leonitus: "don't know kind of like the fresh air feeling you know under a kilt there is nothing either " He laughed

Mortll: "Well it gets below zero here in Canada if you want to keep your jingle bells from getting frost bit i would suggest Undies when wearing a kilt "
He giggled at her comment*
