Tales from th lost city

[grdybiwife]

"From what I can tell the wolves are making friends with girl with the dragon over some sort of charred me while the alpha she-wolf is laying claim to the human who claims not to be a wizard," she said absently running her nails over Edward's chest. "Rest assured Handler, your team is being as civil as can be expected for a cabal of misfits."

Lem lay there for a time, simply listening to him breath and enjoying the warmth his body brought to her being. Being cold-blooded had it's perks, especially with someone so warm so close. Edward's body heat radiated through her in a way she had never experienced before. Sure she had bedded many a human in her long life, but never had any been able to melt the coldness that dwell within her so thoroughly. She didn't want to move from that heat, in fact she found herself curling around his body so that every inch of her touched him from the tip of her toes tucked snugly under his legs to the top of her head nestled comfortably under his chin. For the first time in a long time Serkalem found herself content.

Edward murmured an affirmative already gone and off to dream land. For the first time in a while he slept peacefully free of any thing that might have troubled or bothered him. He wasn’t usually a deep sleeper but with her he felt himself finally relaxing enough to actually get some decent sleep.

The next day

Edward heard the alarm going off and groaned stretching and opening his eyes. He realized it wasn’t his bed and the memories of last nigh returned to him of heated sex and the vampire who had captured his interest. He noticed said vampire in bed next to him and brought her closer. Curling her into his chest as he pressed his heated body against her.

“Morning” He murmured his voice husky with sleep “I hope you rested comfortably” He remarked yawning “I hope my sleeping didn’t bore you as well” He said kissing the top of her head and breathing in her scent.

“So is this a one time only thing?” Edward asked raising an eyebrow “because if not I would very much like to do this again”

………

Jack got up ignoring the sleeping wolf next to him. He pulled his black boxer briefs back on and and went over to the window watching a few dragons circling overhead playing with some Harpies. He glanced back over at her and thought about waking her up or crawling back into bed with her. Last night was good…. Amazingly good. He hadn’t felt so alive in such a long time or so connected with some one. He could feel the tethers of their mind link even now and he knew if he wanted to he could take a peak at what she was dreaming.

The thought made him slightly uncomfortable so he instead went into the shower turning the hot water on and stepping in. He didn’t know what his new boss had planned for him today or how this was going to work but after the battle and hot sex he needed to get clean.

Lem found herself blushing at that, though there was no rise in color to her cheeks but she grinned like a girl whose crush had just asked her to go steady. Even despite the fact she could not hide her reaction she made an attempt to seem indifferent to his suggestion. "Then we must do something about that awful snoring of yours," she said with a smirk and she sat up to look down at him. The sheet they had been under fell away, revealing her full bust and taut abs as she reached up to stretch her long limbs. "But seeing as I don't often sleep at night that shouldn't be too much of an issue."

At the mention of her usual schedule Serkalem remembered her belongings left at her old place. Particularly the salve that allowed her to venture out during the day. "Some one will need to go to that shitty basement and get my stuff. I would call Ezera but I doubt you want our location known to any who are not involved...or I could just wait until dusk," she added, all of a sudden not interested in anyone poking through her place, even if she wouldn't be there any longer.

With a quiet squeel of joy, emma hopped off her stool and went to peck her mate on the cheek. She twirled around and lead the way out the door. She checked her watch and smiled. 7 o'clock, just enough time for a fun night out. she got her bearings and turned to look at Mayna.
"I'm pretty sure Needful Things is on the way. Bell's been there before, but it'll be my first time."

 

[Mairu]

Kitty watched everyone and smiled, starting to feel like she belonged somewhere, and let it happen, letting the emotions go through her.

 

[katalynn]

"I need to make a quick pit stop in the park first. It is on the way, there is someone I've been meaning to talk with today but haven't had a chance. With all the fun entertainment going on."

She laughed a little as the three of them walked out. On the way out she noticed the time and kind of sighed a little. For her this day has been wasted, loss of money and since that .... human... promised her payment, yet he left to go have his own fun... Mayna was a bit frustrated. Though she didn't show it, nor say anything, to her humans were untrustworthy anyway so it really wasn't a shocker that promise was broken.

"After that though, we can go wherever... maybe even to a bar that is actually open!!"

She grinned playfully though, she really did need good drink after today.

Gregor groaned hearing the pounding on the door. He felt the girl between his legs shaking and ran his hand through her hair briefly touching her ears before roughly pulling her away. He grabbed her by her hair and dragged her over to the next room locking her up and then locking the door before he came out. He hurriedly stuffed his cock back into his pants and fixed his silver cross before opening the door.

“Hello Rhodes” Gregor said taking in his appearance “I hope you have good news for me those inhuman scum I sent you out to take down caused more than enough damage this M.C.P is a vile threat these human agents are disregarding their god”

He led him inside and dipped his hands in holy water anointing his bald head before sitting down and sipping his glass of red wine.

"It's not good. In fact, I'd say we're thoroughly fucked." Alex said sitting down heavily in the chair across from Gregor. "The M.P.C. has a team of monsters working for them now. Ones an ancient vamp. She killed half of my men herself. I saw a pack of wolves, a Mage, and God knows what else they've picked up. Those fucks killed all of the untouchables. I would be dead too but a gnome pulled me out of my wreaked humvee." Alex shook his head and dusted his shoulders in disgust. "Just the thought of that thing touching me is disgusting. I couldn't shoot it fast enough.

Alex paused, grabbing the bottle of wine next to Gregor. He took a long pull from the bottle before setting it back down, shaking his head at the bitter taste. "We're out gunned here Gregor. They took out our best squad without breaking a sweat. You're going to have to even the odds, or we've lost."

 

[Belladorma]

"Well then lead the way lovely lady!" Emma said as she shifted her ears and tail. When walking through the park, she'd learned to let the inhabitants know she wasn't a human. "And if we're going to a bar, the drinks are on me." She said pumping her fidt into the air. "Bell, Dawson and I made a huge score on our lat assignment. So I've had a home burning into my pocket for the past few weeks!" She looked at the other two and smiled. Why don't we all go get some new outfits too!? That's sure to put the outro in anyone's step! All on me off course and I won't take no for an answer." She giggled. "I'm an only child and I always wanted sisters to pamper. Consider it a favor to me and just play along if it bothers you."

 

[Belladorma]

Running. Always running. Darting past trees and bushes chasing after... something. She stopped, sniffed. No she wasn't hunting, she was being hunted. A growl sounded behind her and she bolted. Rain began to pour around her and her foot became caught. She couldn't get free!!! Panic engulfed her. She tried to call for help but her howls wouldn't sound. The hunter stepped forward, shrouded in black. A long blade of silver in his hand. He approached as he raised the sword. He was going to kill her. She had to fight back!
Bell lunged from the bed in wolf form, snarling and growling as she looked for the threat. When none presented itself she took a second look at her surroundings. Water?... the shower. Someone was in the shower. She looked at the bed and memories came flooding back causing her skin to heat instantly.

Lem woke up alone and in the dark. A lesser woman might have felt used by the quiet departure of her most recent lover but Lem was not such a woman. Call it perks of being undead but she had no feeling on the matter. He was alive enough to leave and that was all that mattered to her. Being alone gave her time to think of the situation she found herself in and perhaps get to know the beings she was now found herself connected to. The not wizard. The girl with the tails and dragon for a pet. The wolves, their alpha in particular. Of all of them, Serkalem was the most intrigued by her. She was powerful and had a commanding presence, regardless of her species Lem found those awesome qualities in a women.

The smell of sex hung heavily in the air still and she gave herself a sniff, chuckled when she realized it was coming from her. "Perhaps a shower would be a better first step," she mumbled to herself as she went to one of the two other doors in her room. It was a closet, more specifically a weapons cache and she smiled at what it beheld. They had really done their homework on her. There were two swords that when she lifted into her hands seemed utterly weightless, complete with a backstrap harness, a set of throwing blades, a pistol that she'd probably never use but she appreciated the gesture none the less, and a tactical vest to put it all in. There were a few pairs of black cargo pants and t-shirts that seemed to be about her size as well. It was looking like all she'd need was that salve from her old place, she thought with a shrug as she pulled out a pair of pants and a shirt, then went to the other door and found the bathroom. It was nothing special, a shower, sink, and toilet, but that was all she needed anyway so she went in a turned the water on immediately, making sure to shut the door behind her.

Freshly washed and dressed, Serkalem sat on the sofa to slip on her boots. She started to leave the room and stop, turned to look at the desk where she had laid her blades. "A safehouse does not always mean safe," she mumbled to herself as she pulled them up. With her primary weapons secured to her waist, Serkalem went up the stairs to do something she hadn't done in ages. Socialize.

Mayna lead them through the park as she went to go talk to one of the fae for afew minutes. The girls could see her handing the dragon over to him as they talked. Then she looked behind him in a little hut and frowned slightly, when she went back to where the girls were waiting for her, she looked back to the fae.

"He says he found a girl unconscious earlier today in the park.... she was... ummm... holding a mans ... umm penis."

Mayna had a confused look on her face, not quite sure why anyone would be holding a random penis like that.

"It wasn't a toy one either.. it was a real one.."

 

[Belladorma]

With a groan, Jewel placed the weights back on their rack and sat up from the bench press. She swiped her forehead and stood to stretch her arms. She'd been furious at being ordered to stay behind when the news had broken about the monsters in times square and the workout had kept her from disobeying. It was hours later now and she decided to shower and go see what had happened.
------------
Refreshed from the shower, Jewel made her way to Gregor's room wearing her robes and knocked on the door. She was done just sitting around. She needed action.

 

[silvertongue217]

“You forget yourself!” Gregor growled rising up pushing his chair back and letting it drag against the floor. He clamped his hands behind his back staring Alex down. He felt the anger inside of him bubbling and pushed it away instead focusing on his breathing.

“Forgive me” He said clearing his throat “what I mean is that our mission is one ordained from god we will not stop to their level we will use our faith and our holy army to prevail over any thing”

He placed a hand on the young man’s soldier “you did well soldier your report was… enlightening I will have to go and look into this matter for now get some food and rest I will have use for you soon Alex and we must be ready for the tests these demons will no doubt throw at us”

Gregor heard a knock on his door and turned nodding at Alex “go on son I will message you when I have word” He said ushering him out the back door before going over to his throne. He sat down and sipped more wine calling out a “come in” before he turned to stare at the fires. He mulled over what his captain reported new players….. They would fall just as easily.

It was God’s will after all

[silvertongue217]

Jack came out toweling his hair off standing naked before her. He heard her getting around or well sensed it with their recent mind link. “good morning” He mentally said toweling off his hair his sapphire eyes coming into view as they assessed her noticing her in wolf form but shrugging it off “you looked so beautiful I didn’t want to wake you no matter how good the thought of showering with you sounded” He winked at her before going over and sitting on the bed.

"You know you dont have to slide into wolf form" Jack remarked out loud scratching her ears and rubbing her snout "It's not like I am going to hurt you.... especially after the night we shared I dont know what it was but the connection and the feelings we shared they were intense it was the best sex of my life.... and no im not just saying that" He said leaning back to stare into her eyes.

He cleared his throat and got up turning and presenting her with a view of his ass as he began to pull back on his clothes.

……………

“Just another day in the office” Edward murmured pulling on his suit jacket and running a hand through his mop of hair. Memories of his night with Lem sprang forward in his mind and he felt his cheeks beginning to heat up. He ignored it however and instead settled into the ops center buried underneath the safe house. He keyed in the password and watched as the information came in. He studied the data from Matilda first. The autopsy done revealed their suspicions the monster was at one point an Ogre until some one had done advanced genetic testing and experimentation on them. It was human work but done on mythical beast which meant some human had decided to take the supernatural and turn it unnatural.

“Where are you” Edward murmured staring at Matilda’s body “where are you creating these unholy beast?” He murmured stroking his chin and narrowing his eyes. He knew that White Wolf would want the team on it which meant he would have to corral them all together and send them out to search. Jackie and Lem would probably be the best in this search because they knew the city well…. Or at least the seedier side of it. He resolved to ask them and kept going checking the reports.

 

[grdybiwife]

Lem felt a smile creep across her lips as she heard Edward mumbling to himself. Funny she'd walked right past the ops room and hadn't noticed him sitting there, eyeing the huge LED screen. Even if he wasn't preoccupied he wouldn't have heard her near silent steps as she moved past the door. She paused to watch him at the door a moment before she tapped at the door frame so she didn't startle him on her way in.

"Early bird gets the worm I see...or should I say gets the ugly four armed beast," she corrected with a smirk as she came to stand beside him. Her hand went to the back of his neck before she could stop herself. There was something like affection in that touch, her fingers squeezed a little before she released him and lean forward to study the screen as he did. "Somebody made that thing?"

 

[Belladorma]

Emma gasped and covered her mouth. it took a moment for her mind to catch up.
"Someone must have REALLY pissed her off." She said before nodding. "That's happened in this world too. More than a few times.

 

[silvertongue217]

“Morning sexy” He murmured feeling her hands on his neck and sighing in pleasure. He leaned in and kissed the back of her hand and held it for a few seconds before removing it. He nodded at the creature and leaned back putting it on the main screen along with all the information.

“A human did” He corrected her shaking his head “some humans been tampering with supernatural monsters this used to be just an ogre now it’s barely recognizable we’ve heard vague rumors about some thing like this but we didn’t believe it I mean who would think a human did this but we here is the final proof” He said nodding at the screen “home base is going to want us on this do you know any thing about it?” He asked.

 

[Belladorma]

She enjoyed the scratching and it helped her to relax. The nightmare had left her jittery. I kind of wish you'd woken me. But then we'd get nothing done. She gave a wolf smile and shifted to human form, now kneeling on the floor. She gave a loud yawn and sat up stretching one arm towards the ceiling with the other behind her head.

 

[grdybiwife]

"You been around as long as I have you don't put anything past humans Handler," she said absently as she studied the information on the screen, none of which looked familiar to her at all. And she told him as much. "I have no idea who would do such a thing, then again anybody looking to chop a vampire would probably steer clear of me. I'm no easy target," she said with a nudge of her hips to his shoulder as she leaned over her him to tap a few keys, zooming in on an autopsy photo.

It showed the back of the monsters neck. A series of parallel lines. A bar code, cut in half by her garrote. "Looks like somebody marked their work though," Lem said as she pointed it out to Edward. "There has to be others. I wonder what would happen if you guys scanned it. I'm sure the MPC has some sort of loophole into anybody's database."

 

[silvertongue217]

“We could still not get any work done” He thought back to her pulling on his shirt and watching as she stretched “especially if you keep stretching like that” He thought running his eyes up and down her body appraisingly. He winked and came over leaning down to capture her mouth in a heated kiss. He picked her up pressing her naked body against his and cradling her in his strong arms. He felt the desire coursing through his body again and pulled away his eyes wolf like and tinged with lust.

…………

“I already sent the bar to be analyzed” Edward said nodding “Hopefully we’re dealing with an ego some one who wants his work to be recognized” He said chuckling and shaking his head “Evil people tend to be idiots like that always trying to take credit for illegal work”

He shuddered at her words “I would hate to see what this guy could do with a vampire no offense but you guys are terrifying and strong enough who knows what this guy would do to your DNA”

"I don't care about God's will." Alex said standing. "Just give me more monsters to shoot." He said turning and passing Jewel as he left Gregor's office. "Fucking zealots." Alex muttered as he walked towards the mess hall. Alex was a good shoulder, but Gregor always seemed to forget that Alex wasn't fighting for God. Alex was fighting for revenge. The only reason Alex had joined the Templars was to have equipment and good fighting men. He wasn't into the whole "army of God" thing. He just wanted to kill monsters.

Alex made his way to the mess hall. He grabbed a sloppy joe, tater tots, and a beer, before he found an unoccupied table. He sat down and began to eat, waiting for his next assignment to come in.

 

[grdybiwife]

"I hate to break it to you Handler but they've probably already done it," Lem said with a huff as she turned away from the screen shaking her head. She ran her hands over her face as she leaned against the control panel. "The young ones aren't nearly as resilient and they tend to be cocky little bastards who think they can take the world on by themselves. I didn't last this long being stupid but I'm sure there's no shortage of idiot bloodsuckers for somebody to pick up. Let's just hope whatever they made isn't any stronger or more terrifying than I am," she said with a little smirk before she reached out to touch him again. This time her hand on his, ran her nails along his fingers before she stepped away.

"I was going to head over to my place...my old place I mean and pick up a few things. I know a guy who may know a thing or two about strange happenings in the inhuman world. If you want I could ask him if he's heard anything...and don't worry I'll be civil. I swear," she said with a little smile, her hand over her unbeating heart.

Quinn took a pull off of his cigarette staring at the building. It had been a hub of activity for the past week, M.C.P. people moving in and out carrying heavy and interesting looking equipment into the building. And then, a few hours ago, a group of varying non humans had entered the building. "Some cool shit's happening in there." Quinn muttered to himself watching the building, his curiousty burning.

Quinn heard a slight squeaking and looked down to see a small mouse climb onto his shoe. "Hey buddy." Quinn said leaning down and picking up the mouse. He raised the small rodent to eye level and stared intently at it. After a moment Quinn broke into a sastifactied smile. "Thanks buddy." He said placing the mouse on the ground. "And, as promised, your payment!" Quinn pulled a jar of extra crunchy peanutbutter from his sweatshirt pocket, and unscrewed the lid. He took a long sniff from the peanutbutter before scooping a large glob onto his finger and wiping it on the ground infront of the mouse. Quinn licked the rest of the peanutbutter off of his finger, before screwing the lid on, and returning the jar to his pocket. "Now lets see what you guys are doing in there." He said to himself crossing the street.

Quinn crossed the street quickly and walked into the alleyway next M.C.P. base. He groaned as he felt his body begin to change. His skin rippled and sprouted corse blonde fur, as his bones popped out of place and rearranged. "The shrinking is the worse part." Quinn thought to himself as his transformation ended. The young man standing in the alley way had disappeared, and been replaced by a large blonde rat sitting in a pile of clothing. The rat rose on its hind legs sniffing the air before taking off at a run towards the building.

"Right where he said." Quinn said sniffing a small hole at the base of the wall. He squeezed his way into the hole and wriggled his way through a small tunnel. When he got to the other end of the tunnel he was overpowered by the strong scent in the room he entered. "Smells like vampire. And pussy." Quinn thought to himself looking around the small bedroom. He could hear a man and woman softly talking in the next room, but he couldn't make out what they were saying.

Quinn changed again to his half form. He now appeared to be a giant, three foot tall rat, with slightly human qualities. He sniffed around the room for a moment before walking over to a door. He opened the door to reveal a small weapons cache. He ignored the swords and throwing knives, and instead reached for the pistol hanging on the wall. "Ssswwwweeeetttt." He said to himself changing back to human form. He quickly pulled a pair of cargo pants and t-shirt from the closet and pulled them on. They weren't the greatest fit but they would work until he got back to his old clothes. "Now... To explore or to leave, that is the question." Quinn thought, tucking the pistol into the waist of his pants.

Quinn quietly opened the door that led out of the bedroom. It led him to what looked like a small command center. He could see a man and a woman talking. He inhaled deeply and smiled. "That guy got lucky with a vampire. Good for him." Quinn thought as he began sneaking through the command center towards the exit, hoping to avoid alerting the occupied couple.

Jewel stared hard at the back of Alex's head as he walked away from Gregor's quarters. His blasphamy was a thorn in her side. But as long as Gregor wanted him in the ranks, she would tolerate him. With a scowl and a flourish of her robes, she entered and stood before Gregor. She slightly bowed her head in reapect to him and his guidance, but her anger at not having her talents utilized kept the view short.
"What news from the fight?" She said and, examining her nails, gave a bored expression. "I'm sure the peons you sent were more than enough." Her voice dripped in sarcasm.
