Night Patrol (open)
It had been a few weeks since Dolemeck had ended up in Seattle. In that time, he lost someone, he found someone, he met new friends, got a new job, and he discovered a new purpose for himself. He agreed he would help Bram, Tyler, and their friends look for any supernatural beings. It was odd, but such a pact made him feel more at home than when he was in Manhattan by himself. This place, it made him feel welcome.

He had finally been to a barber shop for the first time and had his hair cut much shorter (as Bram spoke of how having long hair would be one more thing an enemy could grab, and his managers at work were not happy with him having waist length hair). It was short in the back, and long in the front, going past his chin a little bit. It was odd how changing one's hair and location could make a man feel brand new.

"I should have done this sooner." He whispered to himself as he shadow ported from one alley to the next. He was hellbent on finding the other two escaped demons from limbo who tried to drag him back there. But so far, he was unable to find them, or much of anything. Then again, most supernatural beings would not be stupid enough to make themselves so easy to find. But then again, what was he?

As he thought more on this, Dolemeck shadow ported once more. He could find nothing, so he decided to look for a bar to go to for some fun.

Tyler had caught sight of the Patriarch during his patrol and was attempting to follow the man's limousine through the city. He wanted to know just what the vampire elder was up to, but no sooner had he caught up then it seemed he was gone again. Tyler cursed to himself, but realized lamenting wouldn't help matters. He went into the nearby bar in order to get a drink..

..oh you have got to be kidding.

"Dolemeck?"

	"... Tyler?" he blinked in surprise as he had just gotten to the bar himself. He ran his hand through his much shorter hair as he waited for the tender to give him a mug of ale. "Have you come for a drink as well?" He smiled a little. "My hunt unfortunately has turned up nothing, so I thought I would have a drink before trying again." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I lost my quarry," Tyler admitted. "I thought the drink would clear my head. Nice haircut by the way." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Thank you! Bram told me that long hair was just one more thing an enemy could grab, so I decided to have it cut on his advice. Ummm... excuse me, bartender, could you get my friend here an Ale? I'll pay for it!" He smiled, waving towards the tender as he began to prepare another mug of ale for Tyler.

"I have found no trace of the two demons who got away. This makes me worried that perhaps they have made a pact with someone or thing to help track me down." He gave off a sigh, the tender coming over with their ale and Dolemeck paying him the proper amount of money this time, and a good tip. "That's all we need, demons making pacts with vampires or the like."

	"You don't think maybe they just cut their losses and went back to Limbo?" Tyler gratefully accepted the drink. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dolemecknight 2013-09-12 09:15 pm UTC (link)
	"If Limbo is having a power struggle, they would not want to go back there." He took a long drink of his ale. "I know that when I escaped, I never wanted to go back. It's a terrible, terrible place. Worse than this "Applebees" I hear of." He gave Tyler's mug a clink with his own. "Cheers!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	living_dhampir 2013-09-12 09:23 pm UTC (link)
	Before Tyler could reply in kind a voice from behind him said Cheers, but in Greek. Wait a minute. Tyler turned around and... "..Oh shit." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

The Patriarch stood a few few behind them. The man's pale complexion and fine white clothes a stark contrast to the dark of the tavern. A mere glance at some of the bar's rougher patrons had them backing away from him.

"I understand you were following me, Mr. Morbius. If you wanted an audience, there are more direct ways of gaining my attention than stalking me."

The vampire lord calmly sat himself at a table.

Dolemeck's eyes turned red the minute the vampire Patiarch walked into the room. He gave off a small growl, his black fingernails sharpening into talons as he watched the man. He fought very hard to keep himself calm and to finish off the rest of his ale.

"This man is making me feel all sorts of... odd." Dolemeck admitted, his voice somewhat demonic in nature, just as it had been the night he and Tyler met.

	The Patriarch turned calmly to assess Dolemeck. "You must be the new arrival to my city." "It's not your city," Tyler replied in an even tone. "By default it very much is," the vampire replied unphased. He looks back at Dolemeck. "The man from Limbo, yes?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dolemecknight 2013-09-12 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	"Aye..." Dolemeck was trying his very best not to stare at the Vampire Patriarch. He was shaking, trying to keep himself under control as best he could. "I told no one of this information publicly. So, how the bloody hell did you know?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Your tone could use more respect, but I will indulge your curiosity. When I discovered demons had appeared in the city and that Mr. Morbius and his fellows had not destroyed them, I decided I needed to remove the potential problem in my new territory," he explained. "I used my magic to summon and bind the demons. Once that was done I learned quite a bit about the incident, including you, Dolemeck."

"My apologies... I am trying to be as respectful as I can be." Wait, why was he apologizing to someone who was a bad guy!? Dolemeck groaned, slamming his mug down on the bar top and finally retracting his nails and allowing his eyes to go back to their unusual green in color. He panted a little, as it was taking everything he had to keep himself under control. "You were able to bind them? No wonder I could not find any trace of them in this city. And what is it you know about me, if I may ask? I am nothing special, kind sir."

	Once Dolemeck walked in with Tyler, he made a b-line to the bar and got himself a pint of Guinness before taking a seat. He was on edge and everyone could see it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Bram made it into the bar not much later. He was all business right now. He had brought with him some of his files on tryks for the others to look at. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Joanna breezes in, hair in pigtails and wearing a Japanese schoolgirl outfit. Before anyone can ask, she just holds up a hand. "New waitressing gig. Costume cafe. Don't ask." She sits down, pulling out a bottled water and appraising the new face. "Don't think we've met." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"What's up?" She just got off of work. Ah retail. She could still get away with her normally brightly dyed hair but the shirt and slacks were a little mundane compared to her normal clothing choices. But hey she had to pay for her research materials in different ways. "Anything we need to be concerned about?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Another day Tyler may have made a friendly joke about Joanna's attire, but he was definitely not in the mood. "Ran into the Patriarch in a bar earlier. He claims there's a tryk in Seattle." Tyler passes out a few sheets of obscure information ( http://marvel.wikia.com/Tryks ) along with a note tacked on with the simple message of CUT OFF THE HEAD and BURN 'EM.

	"These creatures are the stuff of nightmares." Dolemeck spoke up from looking at one of the files that Bram had left out on the table, and the papers that Tyler was passing about. "So we decapitate them and burn the bodies? Sounds like what we were ordered to do with the French in my Era. Not that I enjoyed such tactics, but we must do what we have to."

	Greg kept quiet and listened. When it was his turn he grabbed the files and read them. Unfortunately he hadn't been able to find out any additional information. A brow rose when he saw Jo. It wasn't her outfit, but the fact she was waitressing somewhere else. He would have given her a job here if she would have asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Back at the Bar devilonstrings 2013-09-24 07:13 pm UTC (link)
	Jo raises her eyebrows at the display of chivalry, glancing to the others in a 'Did that just really happen?' sort of way. That expression turns stern, to mildly concerned, at Tyler's announcement, and the talk about the French, respectively. "Are we sure the intel is good? Man, I can't believe the freakshow this town seems to be turning into..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
