OOC: Nope, just insanely busy. I'm procrastinating right now though, so it's all good.

Sending his thoughts into the room below, Daniel finds that the Tremere have not yet reached the place. He takes the time to roughly shape his right hand into a battle axe and then sees them entering the top floor below him. They are dragging the unconscious vovoide with them, the girl is being carried by a young-looking tremere.

"Are you sure we can get your message to Mercurius in time?", the mage carrying the prayer beads asks.

"What other choice do we have!?" the thickly beared man roars back, "it's this or death at the hands of these savage scum!"

He walks with a limp, focusing on his leg Daniel sees that a hole has been crafted into the leg, the bone warped around it - as if the man had been punched there by the vovoide.

Daniel waits for the others to get into the room and begin attacking before beginning his flank. If the mages start casting any rituals of sorts, he'll surprise attack them while their attention is focused away.

OOC: Now when you say others, do you mean your guys? Because it'll be a while before they get here.

And if you mean the bad guys - how do you expect to flank people when there's no one to flank them with?

OOC: Fark it then. Let's see how tough the vovoide really was on his own!

BIC: Daniel surprise attacks the mage who isn't holding the vovoide's ex-girlfriend and buffs his strength (+3) to really crunch the guy.

The mage carrying what appeared to be prayer beads is completely and absolutely caught off guard by the horrid creature waiting behind the door for him, swinging its axe arm into his face. The hand/axe cleaves through his skull like butter, and he is summarily incapacitated by the near fatal blow.

The thickly bearded mage with the limp looks with no small bit of surprise, before beginning his own incantation. The young man holding the vovoide's "ex-girlfriend" looks on horrified, but grabs a dagger from his belt with a trembling hand.

This can only end well...  :-[

With a manic blood-thirst in his eyes, Daniel cries, "Die... DIE!"

He swings his axe in the direction of the bearded mage, once again spending three blood points to buff his strength.

Daniel's arm swings through air, smashing into the floor and sending stone chips flying as the Tremere takes a dive to avoid the undoubtedly fatal blow.

His arms bright and coursing with some unknown energy, the mage points at him and a deafening crack sounds as lightning springs forth impossibly fast to strike him full in the body, flinging him through the doorway he'd come in from. Picking himself up Daniel lets go a groan of discomfort, taking a brief moment to examine his body before standing. Some bad electrical burns adorn his left shoulder and his back feels a little twisted. Nothing a little blood shouldn't fix.

The smell of smoke drags Daniel's attention back to his enemies.

"What the hell are you doing?!" he hears the lightning mage yell from inside the room.

"I'm sorry! He spooked me and you got him out so fast..."

Definitely something burning. The younger one must have set part of the room on fire.

Three blood into health before unrelentingly bursting back into the room and axing the lightning mage. The youngling is next...

As the blood diffuses into his wounds to reshape his injuries, a dull ache springs into action within his mouth, as a raging thirst suddenly overtakes him.

Ah, he has used quite a bit of blood lately, hasn't he...

Daniel springs back into the next room - but this time the lightning mage is ready for him, and sends a blast ripping through the doorway before he even fully enters line of sight. Daniel is forced to back away or take another one of those lightning blasts right to the face - likely not a pleasant outcome.

Inside the room, the magus taunts him - "Come in here you ugly Farker, you too much of a little bitch to fight when the other guy knows you're there?"

Daniel looks around the room for any furniture. He also checks what the walls are made of and their overall composition.

The room is lacking in furniture, and only contains an empty rack that must have been meant to hold bow staves or other weapons in times of siege. The place must be meant as a defensive position to attack from in a siege, the slits in the walls and an rusted orange-brown grate over the entrance of the tower through which one could pour boiling oil only serving to support Daniel's assessment.

"You think you're safe from me? You die now, filthy mongrel!"

Daniel throws the rack through the doorway as a feint without stepping into sight himself. Should the coming lightning foolishly strike the flying furniture, the murderous vampire will charge through the doorway once more and attack the lightning mage. (Spend 2 blood on strength for that one!  ;) )

Noted. In that case, one blood into Fortitude should Daniel get stricken by a spell of any sort (particularly that pesky lightning). Finally, one Willpower point shall be spent to help assure the odds of striking the lightning mage with that happily lethal axe Daniel created.

Daniel's clever use of the stand works well, throwing it in it is immediately blasted apart by a powerful surge of energy exiting the mage's palms. Bits of wood fly into Daniel's face, obscuring his vision as he rushes in right after the stand, roaring and madly swinging his axe-hand. The mage lets loose another surge of energy that strikes Daniel square in the chest stopping him in place for a bit, stunning and numbing him from the sudden shock.

It lasts but a moment. Daniel's muscles unlock and his axe continues swinging. He could feel the desperation in the eyes of the magus in the moments before his death, and then nothing at all when his hand obliterates the man's body.

The smell of smoke still pervades the room. Swinging around, Daniel sees the boy clutching the hand of the woman, his lips pressed against her knuckles. He looks like he might be crying.

She is currently lying down in a bed of fire. Whether it's what the boy lit accidentally, what he lit now, or of her own making Daniel cannot know. What he does know is that he has been robbed of a prize. She'll die before he can put the fire out.

At least the vovoide is still alive. Probably?

Daniel moves to the lightning mage's corpse and mutters, "Bastard."  Before drinking his fill of the dead man's blood.
 Once done, he heals himself of what he can before scavenging any blood from the remaining mage except for the woman. Respect to a vovoide he might still care of her body's dignity. Well, that and he doesn't want to insult someone who may very well kill Daniel at the drop of a hat.

Activating his Way of the Spirit (spending the standard willpower point necessary to do so), Daniel begins stealthily searching around the tower for the rest of the vovoide's flock.

Daniel wouldn't have had much opportunity to do anything to the girl, her having killed herself in the fire and being burned to ashes.

The young man gets up and tries to run when Daniel starts to drink the dead lightning mage's blood.

Crap. Can't have any reoccurring villains.

Daniel stops drinking, making do with whatever he got in that moment, and chases down the lone mage. His death will be slow and bloody.

Daniel releases the dead Tremere and chases after the one still living, bursting through the doorway and running down the young vampire.

Before he attacks, however, Daniel manages to pick up some chatter from the mage, and sees a glow forming around the tips of his fingers

One blood into Fortitude and a willpower point into boosting initiative so I can end that bastard before he lets off a spell.

Daniel surges forward, prepared to savage the mage - only to have a bit of fire flare up before his eyes when the mage turns, prepared to send a fireball off towards him! His resolve fails him at the sight of the inferno prepared to burn him down, and he begins to flee... but stops.

It would be a disgrace to run now. He would only be cut down from behind, and what kind of an end would that be to one such as him? (Spend additional willpower point)

When he turns his head back onto the mage, he finds the lad's fire is barely a weak handful of heat, nothing to fear. He launches it at Daniel and the fire begins to eat away at the gangrel's clothes. Daniel moves quickly and rips open the boy's stomach, reaching up through his ribcage, seizing his heart and tearing it out, crushing it in his clawed hands as he does so, destroying the seat of the Tremere's vampiric powers.

He is still on fire, however. Right now just his clothes but in seconds it will be him the flames start to consume...

Daniel stops what he's doing, drops to the floor in the prone position, and starts rolling around on the floor to suffocate and put out the flames. More blood into Fortitude should the need arise.

(Blood points in fortitude only guard against physical damage. Fire, Faith and Sunlight remain immune to the automatic fortitude successes).

Daniel's rolling proves to be largely innefective, the flames persisting through the temporary choking and starting to eat away at his flesh as well as his clothes. He resist the flames for now, however - and is soon saved by a large large body of water that seems to fall upon him from literally nowhere.

Well, that settles that.

Daniel bolts up immediately to confront who threw the water.

It seems no one. The vovoide stands at the doorway, tall, healthy and hale (apparently) once more, showing no signs of pain despite the fact that he had been beaten and incapacitated mere moments ago.

The water that quenched the fire around Daniel recollects itself. It takes Daniel a second but he recognizes it as one of the vovoide's elementals.

"A GREAT success! Fantastic! Stupendous!", the vovoide says, his voice carrying a forced manic happiness not unlike the voice he'd used when speaking to his "lady love".
