Age of Darkness

[Ookalf]

Yeah, looks like this all we're getting.

[Sam]

I'm ready to go when you guys are

[Haylie]

Alicia just sneers and shakes her head. She turns and leads the way up the street still littered with the dead undead.

"Make sure you don't make any sudden loud noises, we don't want it to know we know where it is."

How would she know where it is, or that it was a vampire in the first place? Maybe someone could ask?

[Ookalf]

Are you sure you know where we're going?

[Zoey]

"How do you know it was a vampire?" asked Lenalee. "The better question would be, why are you so confident the vampire can be defeated?" added Uther as he looked attentively at Alicia.

[Haylie]

"Vampires have a very distinctive smell," Alicia answers in her signature monotone while leading the way through the now relatively clean streets of greater Las Vegas. "If you know what it is, you can tell one's approach long before you see it." A disturbing thought for vampires, to be sure.

"I'm certain of the direction because this is the way the horde came from. The undead aren't particularly intelligent even under the more powerful vampires. Judging by the resistance-- or lack thereof-- from the horde we just faced, this vampire can't be very powerful."

She positively oozes arrogance, as well as power. Even the humans can feel it. Another scream pierces the night air.

[Ookalf]

I hope it's not.

[Zoey]

Lenalee reats to the scream. "What was that?!" she said as she looked around. Uther didn't take his eyes off Alicia not only because she was beautiful, but he didn't trust her.

[Haylie]

Alicia speaks coldly and calmly. "Another victim of our vampire. It can't be helped if it were powerful, all we can do is kill it."

After another moment or two of walking, Alicia spins around and speaks accusingly to Uther. "Why are you staring at me?"

[Zoey]

Uther smiled back at her. "You have a nice ass!" he said as he gave her a thumps up. "Uther!" shouted Lenalee as she face palmed.
In reality Uther was trying to measure her power. Alicia was something he had never seen before, he couldn't wait for the vampire to come to see her in action.

[Haylie]

Alicia's accusing glare quickly switches to one of anger. The raven on her shoulder caws and flies away. "Don't try my patience, old man. I have more power than you."

Uther would have a hard time gauging Alicia's power. It seems to... fluctuate. At the moment, as she's losing her temper, she's intimidatingly strong. A moment or two before, when they were just walking, the power was only slightly higher than moderate. Whether this is a cause for concern or not depends on Uther's own level of power.

A slight breeze passes through the group as the temperature drops. There's something close by.

[Ookalf]

*Liz tenses up.* You all feel that?

[Zoey]

Uther laughs as he straches his head. As the temperature drops, Uther changes his expresion. "Lenalee stay close to me..." he said as she followed his orders.
Uther placed his hand on the ground, trying to pin point the location of the enemy, but Alicia's power fluctuations make it hard for his sensory abilities to work efficiantly. "Can anyone trace the vampire?" he asked.

[Haylie]

Alicia turns her head back down the street. She doesn't answer Uther, nor does she completely ignore him. It's as though she's listening to something else, but there is no noise beyond a stray breeze traveling through the empty streets, making it even chillier.

Another scream pierces the air, much closer this time. Without warning, Alicia turns on her high heels and dashes down an alley. She stops and motions for the group to follow her quietly.

[Ookalf]

*Liz follows after Alicia.*
