What kind of sandwich? This is important, because reasons.

>>35776929

>>35776689
[x] powder

Anon who gave the original idea for potassium chloride as a weapon in:

Lets see if we can't get some hydrogen peroxide next time we're at the request stores. That shit can dissolves blood and can kill via bubbles of gas from the reaction in your blood stream.

I grab the bag of powder and stow it in my pack, if I don't use it during the job, i can use it in baking.
I look at the bullet of best and see a cartoonish green cat smiling with a mouth full of knives ontop of a golden coin on the right breast. I look at the counter guy, and he chuckles

"Custom made just for you" he says smiling wide. A few awkward moments pass, in which I try to decide whether to smile or stab him in the neck.

*Kroom*

The door bursts open, and a very angry looking agent comes in, dragging my maria. I look at the agent and notice he has a bandage over his arm. his mask is off and he glares at me with a look that can only be describe as pure unfiltered hatred. I wave at him, and he snarls at me

"Layla?" Maria says groggily "what happened?"

"We're going on a job" I say "no matter what you say". She looks at me, confused.

"it better be worth it" the agent says sulking off "little whore nearly tore out my throat"

Wait, his voice sounds somewhat familiar

Its not that lethal in a human body when used as gas, the concentration wouldn't be high enough, but it is really painful and will probably knock everyone in a room down. So I approve.

Ok, can't blame the sandwich on that one

>>35777131
Would you believe me if I said I learned about the properties of those two substances in secondary school biology?

And seeing as H2O2 can dissolve blood, we can also use it to clean our hands if we get bloody. We could also torture the nun with it.

Hydrogen peroxide is also used as an oxidiser in rockets as well, so if we get some kerosene we could mix the two and make a new explosive assassination method.

>>35777116

We can grab the stuff later, now?

SHENANIGANS!

>>35777365
Its traditionally used for disinfection, so its practical for our tendency to get cut and shot all the time too.

"Do I know you from somewhere?" I ask as the counter guy leads the utterly out of it Maria to a chair, where she stares ahead, blinking and shaking her head, trying to clear her head, I think.

The agent glares at me, and walks out, mumbling under his breath as he goes.

what an odd man, I think to myself as Maria suddenly comes back to the world of the living.

"Hmm" She says rubbing her eyes.

"Oh nothing" I say pulling her out of the chair "going on a mission, and you're coming, it's going to be fun".

"Don't I get any say in this?" She asks fearfully

"none at all, you did the same to me" I say happily.

Soon

"Well I walked out, and saw some things that made little sense" I say "also any info on Mr Delanore, as much as i want to waste time wandering New york, I don't have time to"

"Comin right up darlin" he says.

A screen flickers and the following appears on the screen
Francis Delanore.
age: 56
sex:M
height: 5ft 10in
weight in pounds: 110

Current location: our intel suggests he'll be visiting a costumed ball for the elite in the recently Black cat hotel, guards a plenty due to the paranoid nature of the party goers.

Bonus objectives: do not kill either of the rival assassins reward, a special little trinket (something a tad like the lucky coins)

do not get found out (lucky coin, current lucky coins (1) )

"Hey maria" I say looking at maria with her head in her hands "don't look so glum, we're going to a party"

"rival assassins" she says grumpily "We're going to die"

"Bah, no one can kill us when we're together" I say smiling

"They've come very close, however" Maria says

"well if I die, I'll haunt you" I say "not in a bad way, I'd be a helpful ghost". Maria shakes her head

"So you have no plan for this then?" She asks

"Poison the punch" I say "or just level the whole building if we can't get in". Maria looks at me wide eyed

"Joking" I lie, which makes Maria smile

>>35777839
>[] buy a costume for me and maria (cook or maid)
Lets see if we can't try and poison food or try to assassinate the target with minimal fingerprints.

Another idea we could use for target assassination could be some kind of fragmenting bullet covered with powdered Polonium 210. As it's a radiation source we could use it to ensure target elimination.

Alternately we could try and procure something similar to thallium in terms of toxicity.

>>35778039
Both sound good. We usually play the Kitty and Maria is terrified of vampires... so both. Both is good.

>>35777839
>[x] write in

Check equipment then decide our options for assassination.

>>35778039
I actually want Maria to dress up as the vampire.

>>35778100
>decide our options for assassination
We don't even know the targets situation, we have no idea what option is feasible or not at this point.

>>35778103
But we allwaaay play the cat.

>>35778130
Usually we play the teenage school girl, and I'm fairly sure its not that kind of costume party.

>>35778152
Meant the cat ear hood.

>>35778126
We know that he'll be attending a high level ball with high levels of guards, likely armed for dealing with assasins.

It would be better to know what we have before we decide on our tactics.

>>35778152
Catgirl is Layla's everyday look since she got her hoodie

Idea:
We could dress up as a witch. It matches with our poisoner ways and we can pass off spiking something as harmless roleplaying with other stuff. Like actual sugar.

"Costumes" I say happily as I walk towards a group of people.

"What?" Maria says sounding quite confused.

"it's a costumed ball after all" I say "need to look the part after all".

"Wait" She says "you're actually being subtle for once?".

"What do you mean?" I say, somewhat irritated by Maria's tone "I am always subtle"

"riiight" Maria says putting a hand on my shoulder, causing me to jump, which makes her look at me odd, giggling

"not a word" I say "lets just go get costumes". Maria is clearly holding back laughter.

Maria hails a cab, paying the fair as we look at a map, leading us to a costume shop, the streets filled with cursing and the smell of the filth of people and regret.

We end up outside a rather classy looking place, the air cold and trash dancing through the wind. We walk in and

Wow, this place looks like it belongs in a castle, lots of well dressed people milling about and a man with a penciled on mustache staring at me like I was a dead bird brought in by the cat. I ignore the rude man as I look around

What do I choose for me And Maria?

Not sure if we could get away with it at the ball. If it's actually a classy event.. distributing things will not be allowed.

>>35778437
We don't, but you can easily sneak into these things. Hell, remember that White House dinner that the one couple snuck into?

>>35778466
I didn't consider distributing, I considered it more a hiding place for our tools, and maybe we can get something into the kitchen that way. But thats more a best case scneario, its more about concealing our stuff, since we can't wear a backpack in there.

>>35778517
Right I just think that believing we can get in with it is a stretch. if the security is worth its weight we're not going to be allowed to wander around with a package.

>>35778467
What the hell?!

I have never heard of this, but now I'm interested...

What happened?

>>35778542
They'll look into it and see a bunch of apples. Maybe they'll eat one. The regular sugar.

>>35778542
Its part of the costume, they are not going to take it away anymore than they would take a way a ladys purse on a regular ball.

Not that one. This one>>35778593

>>35778467
I think the only problem is getting in, once we are in, no one is going to question us, simply because that would be incredibly rude, its how people sneak into these kinds of events.

>>35778626
Right I'm saying that happened in addition to the state dinner thing.

I dart between and into those costume hanger things, examining the costumes up close, and avoiding the rude man with my training and general speed. I giggle to myself as I watch him reach into
one that is a good 5 meters away from the one I'm in, causing many an odd looks in his directions. He seems rather flustered, and brushes his coat, snorting in defeat as he goes back to stand near the door, taking a swig from a flask at his hip.

I can see Maria looking at dress, shaking her head and looking like "maria" is about to pay a visit from how stressed she looks.
I finally look at the costumes around me, and see that I'm surrounded by fairy tail themed ones

Among which is a red riding hood that looks very well made and comes with a basket, and look it's my size as well, wonderful.

I also see a big bad wolf and decide it would be good for Maria, It has a half wolf mask and a old fashioned coat covered in fake blood, as well as boots and gloves that look like wolf paws. I grab them and walk up to Maria smiling.

She jumps slightly at my sudden appearance.

"Look what I found, Maaaaria" I say.

"Where did you find these?" She asks happily. I shrug

"I'm just good at finding things I guess" I say "and it looked like you were having trouble so I got you a costume as well, the wolf". Her expression falls.

"ahh" She says handing back my costume "but it doesn't really.....work for me"

"And?" I say "the cat hoodie didn't work for me, but I still wear it"

"oh you look cute in it" she says "and besides most people know you only by the hoodie at school now".

"really?" I ask

"Yeah, kind of weird" she says "the fact some first years have started a fan club for you". I hold back a laugh

"Why?" I ask, using my immense willpower to not start laughing madly

"Because you're the one of the few first years to go on so many mission, or any missions " she says "and within your first month at school, you kind of gathered notice rather quick"

"Huh" I say

We walk back into the streets, the cold air causing my skin to prickle slightly, even under my hoodie.

"We should scope the place out" Maria says, as we walk along the street, somehow avoiding be bumped into and other wise harmed by the large crowd

"But first" I say as I smell some delightful smelling pizza "food". Maria nods, rubbing her stomach.

After a quick meal, we head out and manage to find a flier that just so happens to give us the location of the hotel, it apparently has a view of the sea, and isn't the far from here.

After nearly getting ran over ten times and "Maria" nearly beating two people to death, we find it

it's a rather large building, and by that I mean it's a skyscraper, with a large black cat flashing in neon. It's mostly made of glass from the looks of it, it's rather impressive actually, and there are two large men outside of the door.

She is pretty much as yandere as you can get in a platonic relationship.

I walk up to the man, ignoring Maria's attempts at making me stop. I close my eyes as I plan what to say. I make my eyes wide and innocent looking, as well as wear a smalls smile.

The man with a jagged scar along his face and a blind eye with not a single hair on his head, looks down at me. I gulp and hold my hands behind my back. Just need to be Mariaish

"E...excuse me sir" I say softly "my parents bought me pass for the party, so I wouldn't be left at home with my sister, but we lost our passes on the way here". He looks at me, flipping through the book, not even bothering to read.

"Not on the list" he says coldly.

"But...they spent a lot of money to get us those passes" I say.

"And?" he says yawning

"They'd be angry if we lost them" I say, trying my best to look like a beaten puppy "it cost most of their savings". His lips twitch

"And, your fault for losing them" He says, his voice cracking as a passerby looks at me with pity

"Please" I say "we don't even have enough for the fare to get back home. we'll have to walk back". His lip trembles

"Fine, can't rightly let two pretty girls like you walk back alone on these streets, especially with the recent murders" He says sighing "just don't tell anyone I let you in, ok?" I hug him before running in, Maria following. The other guard laughs as we run past

"lets get dressed" Maria says holding her costume "I'll find a bathroom, with lockable doors"

"Don't get lost" I say as she walks off. A colorful poster with various drawings of monsters and beautiful people in costumes catches my eye. It reads, the black cat opening costume ball.

Costumes mandatory
Location: 33th floor, third foyer.
Dress appropriately

Welcome ghouls and ghosts, all hallow eve approaches, and a dance of morbid beauty and gruesome fun will be held in black cat hotel, an opening to it's hopefully long life. please drink responsibly, and leave in pairs, since in light of the recent murders, we wouldn't want to sully our reputation so quickly.

The owner will be appearing, please do not mock his accent or the way he talks, in his country that's normal, and he has a rather short temper

Oh, sounds fun.

Maria eventually comes back, blushing under her mask, and I realize her costume's jacket draws a lot of attention to her....assets. She points me to the bathroom, and I get dressed in a stall, stuffing my clothes into my pack

I look in the mirror, and mess up my hair so it falls in front of my eyes slightly. I pull up the hood, and try to look like an ignorant little girl who talked to a rather unpleasant wolf. I thin it looks good on me, if it's a bit to large in the sleeves.

>>35779875
I fear thats going to happen, yes. But we can at least try to not seek him out.

"Maria lets go" I say grabbing her hand, before looking back at the man, with the pasty white face paint marred by red, mumbling under my breath "what a shitty costume". He looks offended as I walk away

"thanks for saving me" Maria says as we walk to the elevator "he was getting on my nerves"

"You would have done the same for me" I say.

"Yeah, I would" she says, her voice losing its emotion, she shakes her head "So, any ideas on how to deal with Francis"

"Several" I say "most involve collateral damage"


"Why?" She asks staring at me angrily "it better be a good reason"

"Because I hate the name of the place" I say "and think I know the owner"

"Really?" She says in shock "also I'm making the plans then, no need for senseless killing"

"Alright" I say, like I'll listen "and you do to, or rather "Maria" does". Maria squeaks

"Don't worry" I lie "he isn't any form of undead, if I'm right". Maria steps closer to me

"Lets stay together shall we?" She says her voice trembling. I giggle

The door opens, and a man holding a fake head points us down a hall covered in fake blood, but it reeks of the real deal, Maria notices and clings to me, causing a young man to mumble under his breath. We find the the ball soon enough

the ceiling is covered in fake cobwebs and the lights are a sickly green, there appears to be a statue of me on the fountain spewing punch I don't look at that much, the tables are covered in tattered cloth and various gruesome looking food, the music is a wonderful mix of eerie harps and violins and nauseating bass that mess with your head slightly. the windows are open, and there are tables set out.

It's okay I got this Right >>35780046 here.

I leave Maria and walk over to the statue, just to make sure. there's an inscription at the base, It reads, to my love wherever you may be. A wet chill goes down my spine, as I quickly look up at the face of it, seeing its bearing a rather large smile, which I try to mimic, do I really look like that when I smile? hmm, pretty sure I never wore a dress so....revealing, uuurgh. I look at the feet, noticing the base gathers the red punch, making it looks like its standing in blood, I look up at the cold stone eyes of the statue and my gaze travels to the hands, held out as if in a fit of laughter.

I feel violated.
And then my eye catches two people talking in the corner, as Maria finds me again, nearly in tears.

The people in the corner, one is wearing a witches dress and is around my height, but with far more hair on her head
the other is a tall lad, wearing what looks like battle damaged armor, I can't hear what they're saying

>>35780317
Did you already forget his letter? Even if he helps us, it will cost us more than we are willing to give.

>>35780350
We can tell him there are some meals among his guests. The two rival assassins.

We won't miss them.

>>35780380
All the guests are his meal.

>>35780380
He wants a bite out of Layla. So.. may be best to avoid him.

>>35780391
>>35780389
Can we at least get his number? He seems like a fun guy.

I have an idea if we encounter the count hay it rhymes. Tell him about the assassins, convince him that they are after him. In return ask for info about target.

That way, the other assasins get taken out, we get target info ant the count gets dinner.

ERRY BODY HAPPY NOW!

>>35780409
I want to go vampire modo.. so I'm trying to avoid the count because if the option comes up I'll vote for it and we'll get a micro shit storm.

>>35780430
PERFECT

And if we do this in the party, he won't simply attack us (maintaining cover and all that, chance meetings)

>>35780430
Na,
if we meet him it'll be nice and cordial, but point the other assassins out as a 'present' for him to go have fun with.
If he asks why we chose to remain human we just roll our eyes and say even if we did choose to become a vampire we would at least wait until we were in our 20's

>>35780430
If we do encounter him, we should try to make the best out of it. I'm just against seeking him out. If he finds us, we won't run away, obviously.

>>35780483
But why not? He presents the perfect oppurtunity to remove the competition without it coming back to us.

>>35780507
Because whe wants to take a bit from us. And god knows what else.

>>35780531
Sure he does.

Doesn't mean he will, not after we beat him once and certainly not during his own damn party.

>>35780430
But the optional objective was not to kill the rival assassins. I think they will assume we had something to do with it if they die.

>>35780591
Was there anything about quiet? I mean can't we just put some semtex in an apple and chuck it at the target.. and then bail?

>>35780591
We'll we can always ask him to just drain them till they are knocked out instead of dead.

>>35780559
He got mind-control powers. Why wouldn't he?

>>35780611
Don't get found out was an objective, so I assume that means do it quietly.

>>35780559
We're not in a position to rip out his eyes... avoid.

>>35780622
Easy.

We'll blow up his party. And he knows it. I don't think he's particularly eager to lose this alias.

"Maria, does this statue look like?" I ask, before realizing she is on the verge of tears "and what happened, did some one hurt you?". She looks at me strangely and hits my shoulder, mumbling under her breath, before taking a deep breath and looking at the statue

"It kind of does, I guess" She says softly "And because you left me alone, I hate Halloween, easily scared you see"

"Oh" I say looking at the statue "do I really look like that?" Maria stays silent for a few minutes

"Sometimes?" She says slowly, trying not to anger me "when you laugh, you sure do, you look terrifying when you laugh"

"I know" I say "why do you think I do it so much?"

"Because you're a sadist?" she asks cheerfully .

"Maybe" I say "also i think I saw the rival assassins"

"How do you know they were assassins?" she asks

"they looked weird" I say "and all assassins I met are weird"

"Even me?" she asks sounding hurt

"Weeeeell" I say "kind of". She smiles slightly

"So what do you say we do?" She asks

We can find Francis through him. Just a friendly chat, we'll promise to be quiet about it out of respect for a worthy foe~

I look at the statue more, closer this time, and I quickly realize whoever made it....embellished certain parts of me sizes. I ignore it since I can't afford to freak out right now, and look at the mouth, noticing that some of the teeth are sharper than they should be. Oh.

I also see a coin around my stone self's neck, I pull out my lucky coin and notice it looks almost exactly the same.

I also realize that at the statues feat is the combat knife I fought Brausr with, or a stone replica of it. Looking closer I see that whoever made this was a stickler for detail.

"Layla!" Maria shouts as I lose my grip on the edge of the fountain and begin to fall towards the punch

"You're really obsessed with that statue you aren't you" She says giggling "or did you just want some punch?"

"Oh shut it" I say wiping some punch that managed to get into my hair away from my forehead.

"And I thought I was awkward" she says shaking her head "anyways, any ideas, that don't involve killing everyone here"

Some of them might make it out.

Eyeball the crowd, see what's happening, look for the mark and the other assassins.

"kind of?" I say "I kind of got distracted by the statue of me".

"Well I can't think of anything" Maria says "don't even know what he looks like"

"I do" I say "he stands out, looks like he's been living in a cave for a while"

"So did you see him anywhere?" she asks

"No" I say "got distracted by the other assassins and my statue"

"We don't even know if they're assassins" She says.

"they looked odd" I say "so they have to be"

"That's stupid" She says

"I know but it's better to have someone to watch, than an entire party you know?" I say

"that doesn't make any sense" She says "if they aren't the assassins than watching them will let the real ones get past us"

"it does to me I say" I say " and it's not like we have a plan, besides looking around for the target or poisoning the food table"

You people are no fun.

I look around And spot the ragged form of Francis Delanore, standing by an open window, swirling a wine glass while a large ape like man in a suit talks at him, he doesn't seem to be paying attention.

"Found him" I say pointing at him

"How did you?" Maria begins before I cut her off

"I just looked around, simple"

"you are obscenely lucky, you know that?" she says shaking her head in disbelief "Well lets get this over with quickly, people are staring at me". I look around and notice that people are indeed leering at Maria Lecherously. May need to deal with that later
Then a streak of messy red hair and black cloth catches my eyes
And I see the witch dressed girl making her way towards Francis

"Maria, Go talk to Francis for me" I say smiling as I formulate a plan, a rather nasty plan.

"Wait, why me?" she says, or rather whimpers.

"I'm not good with talking to others" I say "may blow our cover"

"I guess" She says as I push her towards Francis

"Oh, and you may want to hurry" I say as I sit down on the fountain to think.

Maria vision.
I don't like this place, it's far to crowded and the music is just making it worse, not to mention the fact everyone is either dressed as some kind of monster or are barely covered. I force my legs to move forward as I hear Layla hum to herself, not noticing the fact people are staring at her, or maybe not caring, can't tell for sure.

"Excuse me" I say as I bump into someone, an event that repeats several times over. What did Layla mean by hurry, I look around, she has better eyes than me it seems and she may have been just pulling my leg, but. Then I see a girl around Layla's height in a witch's outfit rushing her way towards the target. Oh, she was right. WAIT SHE WAS RIGHT?!

I begin running after her, the music a low drum beat as she closes in

Have to get in front of her, She wouldn't risk a scene if she was anyway competent. Then again she could be like Layla, in which case I am soundly screwed. Then an idea enters my head, a stupid, idiotic idea. This reminds me of a certain game I played once.

Romance under the harvest moon. A game that I played only in an attempt to stop being scared of monsters and halloween, didn't work.

I can almost hear the other me chastising me for this, but I'm not a very fast runner anyways, there's no way I could catch up to her

"Hey" I call out to her, she turns, her eyes looking a rather strange purple, maybe she has contacts or something, but in her eyes I see a familar careless joy, similar to how Layla's look when she isn't being terrifying or in deep thought.

this is going to be awkward

"All uhh.. all your base are belong to us!"

Considering Marias games I'm not sure if its good or bad if she doesn't remember what they said.

Crap, what do I do. I look over to Layla and see that she is digging through her pack, ok, now I not only have to deal with this awkward conversation, but I have to make sure Layla isn't going to kill anyone.

"Well, out with it" The girl says with an impish smile. crap. Ok, think Maria, what would the characters in my
games say? Ok, ignore lusty Valkyries and Sister explosion, those ones even made me cringe, which is saying something. She looks at me, Her lips twirling into a devilish smile.

"Uuuh, you" I begin as I pound my mind for a good thing to say "are the most beautiful creature under the sky and moon". She blinks and looks at me, mouth agape

"What?!" She shouts, cheeks turning red.

"And....I uh" I say, my own face a similar shade to the punch Layla is sitting near "would very much like a dance".

"I...don't swing that way?" She says

"W....well how do you know?" I ask, trying to smile "No love was ever found by those hiding beneath the veil of traditions". Thank you Princess X Princess. She tilts her head.

"I suppose that makes sense" She says grabbing my hand "Well lets satisfy my curiosity with a dance, I have something to do". Wait, how in the sweet god did this work.

Well, I dug my hole, better fill it myself as well. I turn and see Layla with her ear to the ground, eyes close as if in concentration, I get pulled away before my mind can truly understand what it is seeing in front of it.

Middle of the dance floor, a chaotic mess of traditional waltz and some modern dirty dancing.

"Well" The witch says smiling, eyes almost glowing in the light "satisfy me, if you do well, well I know a place where we can have some privacy". I feel ill. The girl bounds up and down on her heels. I grab her hand with mine, and remembering my Japanese animes, place one hand on her rump, trying my best to not pass out. I lower her slightly and lean over, pretending this is all in fact a game.

"Oh frisky" She purrs. Stay calm maria, it's for the mission. I spin her around, letting go before reproaching her, while swaying my hips to the beat of the almost hypnotic movement. Sure looks at me curiously, no sign of embarrassment on her face as she smiles and press herself against me, forcing me to bend as she spins us around and around. I match her steps and put some flair in an attempt to impress her for some reason. I see Layla in the rafters, oh god my poor heart can't take much more. I spin the girl around and catch her in my left arm. She wraps her arms around my neck, turning my a even deeper shade of red.

"So wolfy" She says "what's your name, it's rude to not tell, and I'm not that easy to do this and that with some who's names I do not know".

"D..Does it matter" I say "I mean I can u..understand what you mean but".

"Oh trying to act mysterious ehh big bad wolf?" she says "aren't you a treat". this may have been a mistake

"Say are you thirsty?" I ask as I drag her off the dance floor, but she digs her in.

"oh but I'm having fun" She says her eyes staring into my soul "Just one more song to dance to, please?" I try to open my mouth but it stays put as my legs begin to move on their own along with my hands.

"Now that's better" she says "Now tell me your name". I try and bite my tongue, but my teeth don't listen

"Maria" I say "Smith". She giggles as my body dance against it's will. This has to be her doing, it has to be, oh cripes this was a bad idea

"Now then" she says "one more dance, and then we'll get a bit more intimate, shall we". I should've seen this coming, really

>>35783893
your question is a bit hard to read

>>35783878
Yeah we could reach out and stab a syringe into his hand and giggle all the way down.

>>35783903
The question was, if we let him drag us up abit, could and stab him with paralytic or MR, would his fall kill him?

>>35783919
I have a feeling it's a very Very bad idea to take his hand. Do not do it.

>>35783919
God I'm way too tired.
Would his fall kill him if we paralyze him now? Since we are pretty high up, as I understand it.

>>35783919
Dude they're probably not vampires.. it's probably to do something with holding the hand... Do not accept his hand.

>>35783919
Depends on if he hits anything or falls on his head, unlikely though not really a sane idea, but then again layal has very few of those

>>35783944
>not really a sane idea
As if that were a deterrent
I mean, why are we even in the rafter?

I'm pretty sure I know why

Fucking hell I have to go to bed... Do not get fucked up by mind manipulating hand grabby children guys. Save the Maria save the world.

>>35784007
We're on it boss. I'm just trying to figure out what to throw at her.

>>35784022
A coin?

>>35784029
I mean the mind-controller.

Idea we prick our hand give a few rhen fall. Vlad might save q lqyla in destress.

>>35784047
Our blood? Might attract the vampire to her.

>>35784056
Not necessarily "our blood", but the idea came to me.

>>35784055
Phone sucks' a layla in distress

"Where is your partner?" I ask as I struggle to hold on to the rafter

"Seriously?!" the knight says wiping his shadow covered brow "You're going to ask this now?"

"Well?" I ask "don't have all day"

"I don't know, she ran off to do something a while ago" He says "and if I knew I wouldn't tell you, you'd just kill her"

"So you do know where she is then?" I say smiling at my own cleverness

"What?" He says confused "I don't have a fucking clue where she is, last I saw she said something under her breath and ran off, also why are you up here anyways?"

"Seemed like the thing to do at the time'" I say

"really, so you weren't hunting me or Kimberly?" He asks "or looking for the mark"

"oh i know where he is" I say yawning "so does the witch girl, kimberly you said was her name?"

"What how did you find him, and know that, you know what fuck it" he says "not going to question this dumb bullshit, just take my hand, and we'll kill him without our two idiotic partners, what do you say"

We could make a deal with the man, which we seal by pinpricking each of our hands before shaking them, thus sealing the deal in blood.

"MARIA ISN'T" I scream as I force my way up "STUPID"

"Okay, so you're also insane" he says backing away "good to know, but surely you can see my logic here". I punch him in the jaw when he'd least expect it

"oh I can, I just don't care" I say as he wobbles backwards, rubbing his chin "it's funner when the odds are stacked against you, and having a pair of extra hands or two is as boring as a dead horse".

"Ok, so you are in fact insane" He says standing straight, pulling a sword, still covered in it's scabbard free from his side "I'll knock you out and get you back to your nice soft room"

"Oh shut it asshole" I say as I start to back up, away from him

"You ATTACKED ME FIRST" He shouts "if anyone's the asshole it's you"


"You were stalking me" I say as he swings his sword scabbard and all

"YOU WERE IN THE RAFTERS LAUGHING LIKE A BLOODY FUCKING LOON" He shouts "ITS YOUR FAULT I FOLLOWED YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE"

"You have a point" I say calmly "put I do not care for it, so I shall ignore your logic". He shakes his head. I laugh, he's fun to mess with.

"Say want to meet a vampire?" I ask

"Not particularly" he says letting his sword drop to his side "and yet me guess, you're gonna reveal you are in fact one of the damn things, knowing my luck"

This.

"Oh I'm not a vampire" I say, watching relief spread across the knights face "but I know one"

"Oh?" he says "let me guess your partner is one?"

"no but she is terrified of them" I say

"really?" he asks laugh, as I reach into my bag and cut a slit in my palm, wincing at the pain

"Yeah, it's actually kind of funny" I say as I feel a chill go down my spine "because the host of this party is said vampire, and he's a bit obsessed with me". the knight's eyes light up, too late for him to stop me from smearing my blood on his face.

"oh, you massive bitch" he says as a sudden flash of black takes him away

knight status; Alive, in pain.
Brausr's status: Alive, aware Layla is here

"Now to find my Maria" I say as I leap from the rafters.

I look around and see her being led away by a witch, her legs shaking with eachstep as if she's fight against some unseen tide.

What do I do
[] Ooh, a witch, I want it
[] meh, she'll deal with it
[] What is she doing
[] Need to find francis
