Murphy was now officially out of money. No more hand outs i spose he said prowling the streets. He needed to find a job. . . or something to steel he thought prowling the streets No, i can't just go around steeling money. Thats wrong. . . He decided to head back to the cemetery district, maybe he could find work around that bar.

He pulled himself up on the roof and started to sprint at full speed using his arms to propel himself across roof tops.

He reached the bar and saw the man that gave him coins head to the graveyard.

"Cross" he called right before he saw him pull open doors to an underground catacomb.

Fuck that, i'll just wait here he thought from atop the closest house to the gate.

There's no one in there except a dead girl, Connor and Sylvester are right outside and im running away..

Alencian sprinted past the small shack and grew too tired to keep following. The man was far out of eyesight by now.

What the..
He noticed blood leaking from one of the big barrels that stood up by the house.
Alencian peeked inside and discovered a man lying there in his own blood. Throat was cut, he was wearing old scrummy looking clothes, big beard and long dirty hair. He looked much dirtier than the man Alencian had spoken too earlier.

Ah man... it was a trap. He must already have the ring and he's tying up the loose ends.. damn it!
Alencian put the lid back on and walked inside the house. If he was going to find anything indicating towards who was sent to kill him, it should be in there.

Cross though he heard someone call out him name

"I'll deal with it later" he thought

He began to climed deeper down into the catacombs and ran through some sections.

Eventually he reached a large open chamber and Yelled "Conner" as lound as he could.

Connor chased after the man in white, he knew the old gravedigger wouldn't have a chance to protect himself if things got rough. Connor's wings spring out again giving him the speed he catch up and made another rough landing outside of the old shack. A familiar scent hung heavy in the air that caused Connor's stomach to growl with hunger, "Blood..." he mutters to himself as he walks into the shack to see the man in white searching through the gravedigger's belongings, "So can I ask what you did with the old man or should we just get straight to the ass kicking?"

 

[jad4400]

Cross looked around the chamber some more, but saw nothing

"Maybe I'm in the wrong place" he thought

After climbing out of the catacombs, Cross saw a winged figure hunched over a person and after coming a little closer, he reazlied that it was Conner

"Hey Conner, catch somthing?" he called out

Spoiler: ooc

In terms of what his apperence when his powers are active, Cross essentialy looks an eight foot tall metal giant with a larger than normal sword and shield

 

[Jav3lin]

ME?!
Alencian turned around.

That man in the barrel is the real gravedigger... that man i was following was an assassin, sent to kill me

Alencian unsheathed his sword and pointed it towards Connor.
Why are you following me? Who sent you?

 

[SimpleChimp]

Murphy watched as the chase scene unfurled. What. . the. . .fuck?

He slipped on his mask and climbed off the roof. He sunk into the shadows waiting for the scene to unfold.

 

[Xero Scythe]

Damien was walking past, heading back towards Cemetary distict, when he chanced upon three men who looked as if they were about to leap at each other's throats. one was a metal giant of a man."This looks interesting," he thought, "I think i'll stick around and see what happens."

 

[FeralPhantom]

"Sent me? Snowflake I work for no man, but once I found out you where going after the poor old gravedigger I came to put a stop to it." Connor inhales and exhales deeply, "But the smell of blood tells me I was a little late for that."

Connor smacks Alencian's sword to the side with his his own and in one quick move has the Ninjato pressed against his throat, "I liked that gravedigger, he brought in a lot of business for me, so why don't you tell me why he was killed before I drain every drop of blood from your body."

 

[Xero Scythe]

Damien's eye twitched. "the hell? He killed Hulian? Bastard!" Damien leaped over to where the people were. He raised his left arm meanacingly and asked, "Which one of you killed Hulian?" in a stone cold voice.

 

[SimpleChimp]

"What the fuck is going on!" Murph exclaimed in frustration. It was about to be a battle royal, and one guy was still running for the gate.

One would think the gate guard would try to stop the fight, or stop people from getting in the graveyard, but he was about as useful as wearing sunscreen while your on fire.

 

[Jav3lin]

Get your hands off of me you sprung up *****! I don't have time for games here! I told you, that man i followed was here to kill me and...

His eyes trailed off as he noticed something in the distance. He used The Eye to focus in on it.
Can't be...

 

[jad4400]

Cross realized that conner didn't see him and was still walking towards the group. He abruptly stped when his sword accidentally dug into the ground and it took a few secounds of wiggling to get it free before he continued towards the group.

"Conner, I think this guy might have been set up" he said.

I can't help but feel i keep explaining the gloves wrong. Imagine that from the start of your nail to about a half inch to full inch is the tip of a knife. That blade then connects to the front of your finger down to the first knuckle (i.e. the knuckle farthest from the hand). This is so that they can stab and cut. If this is confusing to any one i can explain further. I just dont want people to assume i am catwoman, or freddy kruger . . .

Murphy tapped his fingers against his palms, the metal blades meeting the metal plate. Something was happening for sure, and Murphy didn't want to miss a minute of the action.

 

[Xero Scythe]

Damien noticed the metal giant walking towards the group. "He better have been set up, or he's a dead man." Lier snarled.

 

[Jav3lin]

Alencian stepped forward and past Connor.
Look at this!

Alencian picked up a bronze rusty ring from a table next to the door.
He looked outside the shack's open door and then back to Connor.

This is what he was after...why did he lea
Alencian dropped the ring and instantly collapsed to the floor. He started shaking and white goo started squirting out of his mouth. His eyes soon enough became white and blank.

The inside of the ring revealed a spike. It had been poisoned with a paralyze poison, to whom ever touched the spike.

 

[jad4400]

Cross reached the group and looked down at the man that Conner had pinned

"Why would he be after a rusty old ring?"

 

[FeralPhantom]

"Oh Cross, you should know by now things are never as they seem."

Connor hides his Ninjato, convinced their would be no confrontation, and takes the ring from Alencian, "Knowing that old bastard, he had no idea what this was for or what it was capable of....." Connor trails of as he examines the ring, he then flips the ring back over to Alencian, "Something tells me you DO know what that can do, so get talking before me, the Iron Giant, and who ever the hell this guy is beat it out of you." says while motioning to Cross and Damien.

 

[Xero Scythe]

Damien's claw started to burn with the power of the void, as he reached down and slammed the claw into the man's chest. The void quickly spread to the poisoned area and neutralized it. Lier banished the void as soon as its work was done." It'll hurt like hell, but you'll stay alive... after all, can't have a little thing like poison kill you. you have way too much to answer to."

 

[jad4400]

"Humm, I think that I've seen somthing like this before, but I'm not too sure what it is" Cross said

He ponders for a moment and then

"I've definentally seen a posion like that, It's was used in the Urban district amoung feuding nobels to settle diferences, if I remember correctaly it's incredibly rare. An order of assasins in the Jungle District made it from a plant that blooms once every fifty years. But the assasins were wiped out almost a hundred years and they were the only ones that knew how to make this posion."

Cross looks at the ring in more detail

"It definentaly has their marking" he indicate a small symbol on the rings interior band "But I'm supprised that the posion still works given this ring's age."
