The Hero-ver Part 1 - Amsterdam Morning
"Oh... oh goodness that must have been a bad idea.." Vincent Vernard wakes up on the floor of probably the best suite of an upscale hotel... somewhere. He can see the sky outside-- oh looking towards the light is a mistake. He winces and groans, facing away from the windows and trying to get the lay of where he is. He's next to a king-size bed, and can see out into a living room.

He's not alone.

He sits up and looks back onto the bed. Oh... very not alone.

Dolemeck groaned as he started to wake up. His right arm was hurting him pretty badly, and well... there were women all over the place in the room they were in. He gave out a scream, falling out of the bathtub he was in, and landing on his butt on the hard tiled floor. He had NO clue what was going on... or any memory of the past twenty four hours. He barely remembers even LANDING in Amsterdam for that matter!

"What the bloody hell is going on!? Why is there a tortoise in the bathroom!? What is going on in here!?"

	A groan came from somewhere underneath a trio of women on the couch, and Argo was quite careful in extraditing himself from the sleeping woman. The yelling, however, was not particularly pleasant. ""Ohhh.... my head... It be as if Charybdis swirled within it. What foul sorceries have done this?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

An instinctive response comes to Vincent as he crawls on all fours into the living room, not quite finding his feet yet. "You drank too much, you lumbering dolt!

Wait... how do I know that?" He mutters to himself, looking around the room as he uses an end table to leverage himself upright. "Oh... that's how I know that." An impressive array of bottles, of varying varieties and vintages, litter the suite.

	"That... that is a thing?" Argo asked, perplexed. He was reasonably sure he didn't have to deal with that kind of thing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Dolemeck ran out of the bathroom, then shutting the door behind him and panting. He was without a shirt, dressed in a pair of plaid sweat pants... and apparently had not looked at his right arm. His right arm was sporting an intricate Chinese dragon tattoo. The dragon's tail and body were wrapped from his wrist, all the way up to his arm, and the Dragon's head was on his collar bone.

"There... is a giant Tortoise... in the bathroom. There are near naked and some naked women everywhere..." He panted in complete shock. "What the bloody hell happened!? What is going on in here!?"

	Vincent peers at the figure emerging from the bathroom. "You... wait, tortoise? No... nevermind that. You're... you're from that bar in Manhattan, yes?" He turns to Argo. "I know you, but... why are you here?" A pause. "Where is here?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	son_of_hercules 2013-05-28 10:44 pm UTC (link)
	"It appears to be a hotel room." Argo shrugged. "I am as perplexed as you, though it appears we had a most *OUTRAGEOUS* time!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Cousin... Argo? Is that you?" Dolemeck blinked a few times, and then turned to look at Vincent. "Aye, I remember you from the bar! You bought me many drinks with alcohol in them, and were most friendly to me. But other than that... I have NO clue how we got here, or WHY we are here... or WHERE the bloody fuck we are and why there is a GIANT Tortoise in the BATHROOM!"

Vincent winces at the outburst. "Please do not do that again..." He rubs his temples. "I... I need some air..." He stumbles his way to the terrace, shading his eyes from the sun.

Well, this is definitely Amsterdam. He recognizes the layout of the city. There's an excellent view, at least. He can even see the royal palace... and there's apparently some clamor going on.

He feels a chill run down his spine as he sees a group of guards start heading out, moving generally in the direction of the hotel. "...oh devel..." He swears under his breath as he hears the phone in the suite begin ringing.

	Dolemeck just looked panicked out of his mind. He could only stand there, his eyes as large as saucers as he looked over at the phone, and then everyone and everything in the room. He still had yet to realize he had a tattoo on his ENTIRE arm. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

With some measure of trepidation, Vincent picks up the phone. "Hello? ...yes. ....Yes. No, I don't think so.... Yes. I understand. Thank you."

He hangs up the phone, then turns around. "Okay, we're leaving now. I don't have all the details, but the guard from the Royal Palace is on their way here to speak with us, you in particular--" he points at Argo. "--and they don't sound happy."

He attempts to teleport them elsewhere--

--and nothing happens.

Vincent's eyes grow wide as he pales somewhat. "Oh dear..."

	"Strange," Argo said, "I do not remember anything out of the ordinary last night... Of course, I do not remember much of last night at all." He gave Vincent a curious look. "What is it?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	After some help in cleaning up damage to the town from the phoenix-peacock's rampage, the boys all returned to the hotel. The previous evening's ladies, along with the tortoise, had been cleared out. Vincent just lurches to the nearest chair and collapses into it. "We will never speak of this weekend again..."

	"Agreed." Dolemeck gave a small nod to his head as he took a seat on the end of the bed. His arm aches a bit from the new tattoo that covered it. "I do not know why, but... I feel somewhat happy, yet depressed at the same time. This was not the adventure I had in mind when I spoke of my desire to come here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Back To The Hotel quitethecharmer 2013-06-13 10:59 pm UTC (link)
	Vincent casts a discerning eye over the phone and the graphic evidence of last night's antics. "...so you did. And... yes, there's Argo dismantling the enclosure for it at the zoo. And there's the ladies from last night. And the rest of the ladies from last night." Okay, maybe his wildest days were behind him, but maybe this trip hadn't been so bad.
