The vovoide smiles, a rather unpleasant sight - "What do I make of it? I make that we should attack as soon as possible! You shall receive two of my best men and a pack of the rabid beasts that patrol my lands as soon as you leave. I already have the location."

Daniel inquires, "Have these men already been altered to your tastes?"

"They wouldn't be my best if they hadn't would they?" The vovoide asks, in an almost questioning tone.

"I shall heal your wounds, once you have fully recuperated you will depart immediately. Understood?"

The vovoide smiles.

"Good."

With surprising speed, he reaches out - a thin arm seizing him in a painful grip, throwing him off the castle wall.

Before he can turn into a bird, Daniel strikes the earth - and is swallowed into it. He feels the earth close against him, and then everything goes black...

---

Four hours later

Daniel feels water splash over him, and his eyes open. He sees a water elemental encompassing his lower body, cleaning the dirt off of him. His burns are gone.

"I hope you enjoyed your nap. Your command has assembled at the gate."

The voice is the vovoide's who Daniel turns to see standing behind him.

Daniel nods respectfully at the vovoide and starts walking towards the gates to join his units.

As he leaves the vovoide's presence, he gleefully says to himself in a tone loud enough for the vovoide to hear, "Oh, the nightmares they'll have..."

Waiting at the gate for him are two, surprisingly graceful, monstrous creations. One is a man with long bone spikes sprouting from around his shoulders and neck, as well as his wrists and elbows. Most apparent are the fact that his ribs have been inverted, and sprout threateningly outside of his body. He wears no shirt, showing off the full extent of the modifications to his skeletal structure - he looks almost like some sort of carnivorous flower, with the spines around his head looking like they would close around him.

The other does not appear to be human, though that could simply be a result of the extensive fleshcrafting. In place of arms are to long, deadly-looking scythes. It stands crookedly, yet Daniel does not doubt that it would be able to move very quickly. It seems to be almost all bone, with very little fat or flesh on it, bearing an alien look in its eyes. Its head has been modified to look like an insectoid's, and it appears to have some sort of outer skeleton. It moves in small, quick twitches and jerks.

The carnivorous flower-man speaks to him first, bowing briefly.

"Good evening my lord. We shall be your two escorts for this endeavour."

In an attempt to be friendly and get close to these two abominations (Thinking this because they weren't made by him.), Daniel puts on his best smile and says, "Well met, friend. What are your names?"

"I am Immanis Florem."

The other man introduces himself with a series of seemingly haphazard clicks.

Immanis carefully replicates the exact series of Haphazard clicks the insectoid had spawned. Daniel doesn't dare try himself, he knows he would only fail and make himself look the fool.

The armoured man chitters in an almost satisfactory-like manner.

Daniel and the two servants leave the vovoide's castle, ready to accomplish their given mission. Soon, coming out of the castle, The group is approached by a pack of monstrous, seemingly feral wolves.

They quickly surround Daniel and his command, snarling threateningly as they seemingly prepare to attack. On his guard, Daniel prepares to do whatever it is he does before fighting, when the largest of the pack approached him, lowering its head to Daniel and seemingly waiting for something.

Daniel addresses Immanis and the insectoid follower over his shoulder, "They're not attacking just yet. Have you two inherited any expertise with animals from your master's blood?"

In preparation for a surprise charge (should one take place), Daniel spends one blood point to buff his Dexterity for the scene.

Daniel contemplates whether these wolves are expendable or not. As he does so, he gently caresses the top of the wolf's nose with the back of his hand; allowing the wolf to familiarize itself and become comfortable with his scent.

This could be fun.

Removing his hand, Daniel gently says, "You will follow us to where we're going. That is all, for now."

Most fleshcrafted wolf packs are treated as scouts or daytime raiding parties by the Tzimisce. No fleshcrafted servant can truly be called expendable, them being much more effective for combat purposes than their more common unaltered counterparts - if only for the horror that their malformed bodies can so easily invoke.

However when considering the goal ahead of him, Daniel can only assume that as long as he succeeds in his task, the loss of any servants will be overlooked.

The large wolf that had come to Daniel accepts his pat, and then barks out something to the other wolves. The beasts disappear into the surrounding countryside, while the large wolf remains at Daniel's side.

Turning back to the wolf, Daniel informs it, "I will address you as Alpha, for now."

Taking a step back to face the entire group, Daniel concludes, "Unless there's anything else, let us move on."

The rest of the journey is uneventful. As far as Daniel is aware, the enemy has not yet found him, Alpha has remained relatively docile and neither Immanis or the Insectoid have reacted aversely - unless the enemy possesses detective powers far beyond their own abilities, they will not have been discovered.

After some few hours of travel through the rolling hills of the transylvanian countryside, the hairs on Alpha's neck begin to rise and it stops moving. A low rumble escapes its throat.

"She says we have arrived at our destination, sir. Over the crest of that hill over there, that's where the chantry should be."

The bones on his wrists all move towards the direction he raises his arm towards. The insectoid clicks and stretches out the scythes in its arms.

"The first order of business would be to make sure that the chantry doesn't have any escape routes. Unless we face an unpleasant encounter, we should take the time to check the surrounding areas for their hidey-holes."

With a malevolent grin, Daniel also says, "We wouldn't want any to survive, would we?"

Cresting the side of the hill, Daniel prepares himself to see the great Tremere chantry that has so horribly plagued his vovoide, to do combat with sorcerers whose will and magic was enough to frighten a monster of centuries - only to find nothing. Over the hill there no chantry, no great castle, no towering spires of magically raised structures, there is but more empty rolling hills, and, at the edge of his sight, what appears to be little more than a hut.

Feeling a little ridiculous, Daniel says, "Alright, then. Let's move on then."

The moment they get within 50ft of the hut, however, he uses the Path of Spirit to scan around the area. He does NOT trust the tremere.

They approach the hut undetected. 50 ft away Daniel silently calls for a stop, where he uses Path of the Spirit to look into the small structure.

Inside wait two gargoyles, hideous squat creatures with small wings that cannot possibly help them fly, heavy as they look and small as the wings are. Along with the gargoyles is an attractive young woman who Daniel recognizes as the one he was sent here to rescue. She does not appear to be bound but there is no way she could escape the gargoyles even if she could escape.

After a moment, a thought occurs to Daniel... this is pathetic. Two gargoyles in a hut? In what world is this a chantry? That old vovoide was full of shit.

Daniel, not having any knowledge on the Tremere beyond what the vovoide had given him, is unable to make the distinction. The Tremere are a new clan after all, and a secretive one at that. Little is known about them.

He looks to Alpha, "Summon your pack. I want you to ransack that hut and draw them out."

Turning the the rest of the group. "When they come out to face us, we will strike. If there are preparations you two do before combat, now's the time. Let's move."

Taking his own advice, he spends three blood points to buff each of his physical attributes by one and then spending another blood point to change into a grizzly bear. All this in preparation, of course.

The operation starts off well. Daniel, Immanis and the Insectoid wait at the top of the hill, looking down at the hut while the wolves flush the gargoyles out of the hut. Using the Way of Spirit, Daniel keeps track of the situation from his place on the hilltop.

The Alpha barges in immediately through the front door, snarling and barking in a wildly intimidating fashion while two of her lessers rush in after the gargoyles. The woman shrieks and backs away into a corner within the room, while her guards move in front of her to stop the wolves from attacking. The gargoyles seem inept to Daniel's eye, as they seem to have difficulty handling the beasts.

The other two wolves break into the hut and one of the gargoyles smashes open the back wall, grabbing the girl as he does so and preparing to fly away. The other stays back and keeps the impromptu exit shut off, holding off Daniel's wolves.

Daniel immediately spends three blood points to buff his Dexterity (even if it's for only a turn) and attempts to charge and maul the gargoyle that's attempting escape. Also making the effort to not accidentally rip the lady in two as well.

Before doing so, he throws a speedy look at Immanis and Mr. Click Click as the best signal he can muster; this and a growl. Hopefully, those two get the message and try to attack the gargoyles to safe the lady.

OOC: I'm off to camp now. I'll check back in two weeks. If fatigue will allow, I may even check back in five hours. Let's hope that RNG Jesus is on vovoide's side; lest his pawns fail.

Mr. Click Click dashes ahead of Daniel, moving far more quickly than the vambear and easily clearing the distance between himself and the gargoyle. The flying statue had already taken a running start by then and had taken off with the girl - but Click leaps through the air and drives its scythes into the gargoyle, bringing it down by virtue of its weight and the pain it was causing.

The gargoyle drops the girl, where she lands unharmed - it was a short distance after all - and begins flying upwards with Click, grabbing the insectoid into a clinch.

Meanwhile, in the hut, two of the wolves dart forward at the gargoyle, going for its legs. The statuesque vampire does not bother with any finer maneuvers and simply outright attacks the beasts before they can deal any significant damage, grabbing one of the wolves and launching it straight through the hole in the wall, then braining the other with a fist that could crush marble.

Daniel and Immanis catch up to the girl, who looks at them both with plain fear.

"Good evening madam." Immanis says, bowing servilely to her, the spines along his body rippling as he does so.

Daniel simply attempts to rip the gargoyle that tried to fly away in half with Mr. Click Click while Immanis handles the girl. The wolves can surely hold out for a few more moments.

Daniel leaps through the air and swipes at Click - only to miss by the skin of his teeth. The gargoyle escapes the Gangrel, though it still struggles against Click up in the air. The thing fights ferociously against the gargoyle, trying to escape its grasp, but its claws are doing little-to-no damage to the durable creature's body, and it is too strong to escape. It flies ever higher into the air, by now Daniel supposes it is around a hundred feet into the air.

It's right about then that he realizes something's burning. What the hell?

Daniel feels a distinct and frightening heat behind him. Turning in surprise he sees and smells Immanis burning, his few clothes having been caught on fire, and the woman he'd come to save chanting some dark spell in a forgotten language.

Goddamit, was she...?

Immanis does not wait around. He moves surprisingly quickly, his bone spines twisting about impossibly and ripping what little clothes he wore off of him, while he sped around her. There his spines, all along his body, locked around her own body completely. She could not move an inch, so completely was she held.

With perhaps some surprise, Daniel realizes that Immanis' spines had even stabbed through the girl entirely in some places. No blood exited the wounds. A test by Immanis to verify the dread truth, or petty vengeance for being burned? Either way, a mortal would have been horrifically injured.

Immanis holds his arms out, and the girl does likewise, not nearly strong enough to resist. She remains restrained.

Daniel then hears several howls of pain, as the gargoyle continues his vicious fight against the wolf pack. Turning his gaze onto them he sees another wolf dead and each injured in some way, though the gargoyle appears to be losing. The wolf he'd thrown through the hole in the wall earlier had come back, now he was being pulled down and attacked on every side. Several large open gashes, even now regenerating, riddle his body.

Daniel attempts to incapacitate the woman. He even spends a blood point to buff his strength to truly do her in.

The woman, entirely helpless (and unable to fight back anyway, making this whole thing more than a little unecessary), is struck once by Daniel with horrible force, breaking several bones in her body. Misjudging his strength, Daniel, in striking her a second time, strikes a killing blow - his claws tearing a massive gash in her stomach and eviscerating her.

Once more, however, no blood. It should have been spraying everywhere by now.



The gargoyle flying in the air rises ever higher - and then drops Click. The insectoid falls over two hundred feet to his death, its exoskeleton-like body in pieces once it hits the ground. It twitches slightly.

No reaction from Immanis.

The gargoyle comes down for a fly-by, supporting its other brother down where the wolves are busily fighting.

The gargoyle rips the wolf on his brother's back off, while the injured gargoyle at the door fights off the other two remaining wolves. From the look of it Daniel does not believe the wolves will last another few rounds.

In that case, Daniel moves on to helping the wolves.
