<  Dusty Books  ~  A Vigil Arrival

PostPosted: Wed Jul 10, 2002 7:16 am Reply with quote
A long luxurious black limousine comes to a stop just upon the horizon of Cascadia. The driver quickly shuffled out to open the rear door. A man stepped out to glance upon the city. "The time is now, and this is the place." He whispered softly as the wind whipped through his hair and the final moments of sunset ended. The man sighed heavily as he waved the driver to renter the vehicle. "Julius, I believe ill walk into town, after all it is certainly a beautiful night."
"Yes sir boss, it certainly is." He said as he reentered the car.
"Julius one more thing?" He shouted out before Julius pulled away.
"Yeah boss?"
"Could you set up my accounts for me as soon as you arrive?" he asked already knowing he would.
"Sure thing boss"
"Thank you Julius. He said before the limousine drove off. "Cascadia this is the city of vision." He spoke softly to himself in an accent like none other. He gazed up the city one last time with his emerald eyes before descending the road towards it. This was to be his night, and nothing would stop that…nothing.



The first place the Man came to was the rat infested down town (Whereever the poorside). Poverty was everywhere, men and women slept in the streets, and the man shook his head sadly for he knew there was nothing he could do to help these poor people. He continued walking until he heard a woman scream. Instinctively he ran to the source, two men assaulting a woman in the ally. "Leave that woman alone, lest you be sorry later." He said in a commanding tone.
"Go away, this is none of your concern!" Shouted one of the two back
"The welfare of the meek is my concern Citizen, Now let the woman be!" he said maintaining a safe distance.
"Fuck you!" He hallored back, drawing a pistol from his jacket pocket.
Almost immediately he drew three throwing stars from his pocket and tossed them at the hoodlum, on striking the gun, another his leg, and the last his right arm. The hoodlum fell to the ground. Almost right away the other thug turned around drawing his gun, and again the man threw three stars, receiving similar results. Both men now lay screaming in pain on the ground; the vigil gentlemen collected his stars out of the men and placed them in a small bag with which he had concealed in his pocket. He walked to the woman who remained crying on the ground.
"My lady, you are safe now, I suggest you call the police" she shook her head yes, and thanked him. He helped her up smiled at her and began to walk away. "When will the Children of Seth learn that they are only mortal?" He adjusted his tuxedo and resumed his walk uptown. His night wasn’t through, not by a long shot.

The next place of interest in which the man came upon was a warehouse, With the mans enhanced Vampiric senses, saw past the gates of the warehouse and to a security guard who was bound and gagged near a loading bay, and five men in ski masks loading a truck full of items. The man moved into action.

"Kind sirs, I do beg that you cease and desist from all current actions and return to your homes." They all laughed at him and responded by lifting their guns to him. "Then you leave me with no other options." He fell backwards throwing four stars, two with each hand, hitting four of the vandal's weapons. The last Vandal shot repeatedly missing each time until he had no more ammunition (6 bullets).
"GET HIM!" They cried but to no evail, one by one the masked men were taken out. The last man standing, who appeared to be the 'leader' Ran away as the last of his buddies fell unconscence.

The man collected his stars and placed them with the others in the plastic bag. He then walked over to the security guard and removed his gag. "Gee! That was amazing! How'd you do that with the stars? Who are you mister?" he asked awestruck as the man untied him.
"I am that star in the night sky, I am the flower that rips through the pavement refusing to be kept down, I am the keeper and protector of Seth's Children, and I am the last son of an ancient people. Now I suggest you call the police, these men shall awaken soon."
"Yes sir!" He said kind of dumbfounded and amazed flipping open his cellphone. He looked down at his phone fore a moment and when he next looked up the man was gone, continuing on his way, uptown.

The roads became dark and the streets quite. Something was quite wrong. "Where are you going?" there was a whisper from a dark ally "Where are you going rich boy?" Then suddenly a grotesque figure leapt out of the alleyway. "Give me all you got! NOW!" he demanded so much yet he would receive so little.
"Are you sure you wish to try to rob me?" the man said smiling.
"You dare mock me? Then die!" she said as he opens a switchblade and attacked.
"Careful!" Mocked the mysterious vigilante as he dodged the knife and slipped one of his own into the chest of the Nosferatu. "My knife is bigger than yours." The Vampire took one look into the air before erupting into a pile of horrid ashes. "My god except this tortured soul into his arms." He said sadly. He than sighed heavily before looking up to the sky "this city needs me, I was correct for venturing here, around every twist and turn lies a tortures soul, or a Mortal in peril. I must see the prince."

He soon arrived at his new residence; Julius was there to greet him. "Hello Julius, did you do what I asked you to?"
"Yes sir".
"And did you get what I asked you to?"
"Uh…yeah boss, but why would you want the addresses of all the kindred residents of Cascadia? Cause…well, not everyone is listed…but I got a few dozen addresses boss…"
"That'll be perfect Julius. Why? Because I wish to visit them all."
"…Why?…"
"To announce myself."
"As Cappadocian?"
"Of course not…Not until I know its safe, that is why I'm going to see the prince before I do anything of that sort."
"Your too proper boss, anyone ever tell you that?"
"Yeah the whole town back home" the to laughed at the joke.
"But Julius, you did get the address of the prince…did you not?
"Of course…although I doubt it's his private address…"
"That's alright it'll do." Julius handed the man the address. "I will go now and announce myself. Excuse me Julius."
"Sure thing Boss. You want me to drive you?"
"That would be perfect. Thank you Julius."
"Well, that is what you pay me for." The two laughed and then entered the limousine driving to the residence Julius had gotten earlier that night. The man exited the jet-black, limousine walked slowly to the doorway, this was not any typical residence, and it radiated evil. It sent a shiver down his back as he knocked once-twice-three times one the doorknocker. He stood awaiting an answer.

As the unknown Kindred was still waiting in front of the large wooden door , he looked at the door's design , carvings of demons killing angels were on it ..

A strange whispering was heard , it kept saying " Kindred ... " the whispering emplified (sp) it now sounded like millions of spirit whispering the word " kindred " . The door opened violently letting out demonic screams and it suddenly stopped as a dark cloaked figure stood in front of the unknown Kindred , this figure was mainly a skeleton wearing a black cloak , it said

" What ... are .... your ... here ... for ... " said the skeletal cloaked figure

- Unknown Kindred - " I seek to see the Prince of this city ... "

" Thou are Kindred , and unknown to everyone of us in Cascadia , and yet you dare coming unannounced here , with no Kindred of Cascadia accompany you ... Explain ... or else .. " spat the dark cloaked figure

- Unknown Kindred - " That is why i am here , to present myself so i do not remain unknown ... "

- Skeletal cloaked figure - " Do not try anything , if you do you will be slain ... "

THe unknown kindred noded slowly .

The skeleton disapeared as a demonic spirit took its place leading the unknown Kindred to where the Prince was ..

[u:c521516cd2][i:c521516cd2][b:c521516cd2]The throne room[/b:c521516cd2][/i:c521516cd2][/u:c521516cd2]

The demonic spirit disapeared as the unknown Kindred stepped inside the throne room .

Valek was sitting on his throne made of human bones , blood still dripped from some of them ...

Valek looked up to the unknown Kindred and said

" Well .... well ... i dont know what to think of your actions , you trace the location of one of my many residences , you come unannounced . " Valek frowned as he sensed the " Holy " side of this unknown Kindred ..

Demonic spirit were floating in circles in the room , as if waiting to jump on a possible prey ...

- Valek - " But speak .... what does thou want ? "

(( Sorry for the time man , got busy lol :( and what Port and Bat said is right man , dont stop writting ! eveveryone of us reads the thread of everyone :) ))

He could sense the Darkness within this kindred...it made him tremble. How could one person contain so much hate? What travesties would one have to endure? Vincent did not know the answer, but he doubted that this individual could be of the same blood as he.

Vincent knelt before the prince hoping to gain his favor. Not once did his gaze meet the dark prince's. "My Liege, please forgive me for my intrusion, but I have traveled from afar and have been told it is the custom to see the prince when one enters his City."

"Continue..." His voice was so filled with hate, hate for the world, and hate for all thing good and holy...Hate for ALL things. Vincent continued kneeling his eyes never rising from the floor.

"My liege, I...I was told that you are a member of the once thought extinct Cappadocians..." His own voice with an unfamiliar accent sounded strange speaking English.

The Black Prince Scanned the Foreigner over for a brief moment. Before tapping his hand on his skull armrest. Immediately two servants ran out escorting a fair maiden. This new act caused Vincent's eyes to arise from the floor to meet the maiden; Valeks gaze never left his guest.

"Despicable are they not?" asked the Evil Prince. "So frail, and yet…so delicious…" He took the lady by the neck and with out any effort snapped her neck. "Oops… he said mockingly his voice as cold as winter.
Vincent felt his heart drop. He knew this was a test, and so he did not act, his eyes retreated to the floor. He began to break out into a sweat. The demon prince was testing his loyalty…or try to see how badly he wanted into the city…He knew this…and although he had taken an oath to protect the children of Seth, sometimes it is impossible to help the meek, for they are doomed since birth.



((I hope that was alright of me to do Valek, if not ill erase it. Ill let you do the next bit, just a side note Vincent will do what ever you tell him…except murdering a Child of Seth (Mortal) he will also tell you anything you ask. Thank you.

" Mutilate the body , i want the head , the rest of it feed the creature's with it .. " said Valek as he was looking at the servants .

- Servants - " Aye sire , it will be done . "

Both of the servants left the room dragging the dead body of the maiden , a trail of blood marking the floor as the servants were dragging the Maiden .

Vincent's eyes turned to look at the dead maiden been taken away , his eyes opening wide as he noticed the trail of blood on the floor , Vincent closed his eyes and and said

" My liege, I...I was told that you are a member of the once thought extinct Cappadocians... "

Valek frowned and said

" If this knowledge came from other than a Kindred or a Cappadocian himself/herself , this person will be slain ... "

- Vincent - " Nay my Lord , this knowledge came to me by the mouth of a Kindred . "

- Valek - " Acceptable .. And to answer your toughts , yes i am indeed a member of the Clan Of Death ... No one can get rid of me so easily ... "

The sound of bones and flesh been crushed and sliced echoed (sp) thru the walls , the sound of someone running on the upper floor was heard from a brief moment , the sound of it lasted til the sound of a head been cut was heard , from then only the bouncing sound of a head rolling on the floor was heard ..

- Valek - " Before you ask , what you heard is the sound of punishment issued to humans who knew too much and to Kindred who broke the Masquerade .... You wont have to worry about it if you plan to respect our rules ... but otherwise , if you plan on something else like going against our traditions , you can worry about the same fate happening to you , but as said previously , thou respect our rules and traditions , you shall live a long unlife but if you break one simple rule , be sure that i will be on your back .. "

Vincent noded as he said " Of course my liege "

- Valek - " Your way of talking is rather strange , tell me , from where are you from , what is thy clan , and the reason of your coming in Cascadia ... "

- Vincent - " I am from the Clan Of Death as well my liege ... "


- Valek - " Go on ... "

(( sorry for the time man it took man :( , ill be sure to reply asap on your next addition . ))

Of course, Vincent knows absolutely nothing of "Traditions" or a "Masquerade", but he agreed none-the less. " Of course my liege "

" Your way of talking is rather strange, tell me, from where are you from, what is thy clan, and the reason of your coming in Cascadia ... " The Dark prince Furrowed his brow and leaned back in his seat.


" I am from the Clan Of Death as well my liege ... " Still kneeling he replied bowing his head in respect
"Perhaps this will get me in his favor." He thought to himself

"Go on…" The Vile Prince Leaned forward in his seat somewhat interested but still showing no emotion or surprise.

"I hail from many places, most recently an isolated town within a meager country called Canada, and as for my reason for Coming to your…Hospitable and Fair City, I would need to say you are, my lord. I was hoping to perhaps seek Elysium within Cascadia. Are the Giovanni much of a problem here?"

"No…The Giovanni mostly stay outside of Cascadia…and those within have been pacified." He said it somewhat 'evilly'… and then he grinned most strangely.

"I see…" He bowed his head once more his Gold and silver Cross dangled from his neck. He awaited Valek's decision.[of giving Vincent Elysium or not]


((I know how valek would react to the cross...but i thought it best to let you handle it >=-)

- Valek - " Hmmm ... i see ... "

As Valek reached for his pocket to take out an Elysium card Vincent bowed his head low , letting two crosses out of his suit , as Valek looked at them his eyes began smoking just as if the simple sight of those crosses were burning his eyes , the whole room became pitch black , screams of demons were heard , then the sound of a window breaking was heard followed by a sound of metal objects falling on the ground outside .. As the light came back on Vincent's crosses weren't around his neck anymore , and Valek was standing behind Vincent , Vincent looked up at where Valek was standing before the lights came off , a look of surprise appeared on the face of Vincent as he noticed both of his crosses not being around his neck anymore and that Valek seemed to not be in the room anymore ..

" Do not wear those in my precense .... Vincent ... " Spat Valek as he still standing behind Vincent ..

Vincent noded but it got him wondering why those crosses had that much of an effect on him , the screams of demons earlier , what was it ? asked Vincent to himself . Vincent first impression on this place being radiating with an evil power revealed to be true as of now ..

- Vincent - " Sir if i may ask a question ? "

- Valek - " Go on .... "

- Vincent - " What ... just happened ? "

Valek smiled evily and said " Darkness Vincent ... "

- Vincent - " Darkness .... " Said Vincent as he looked at Valek with a questioning face .

- Valek - " Aye , Darkness Vincent , remember what i have said ... do not wear those in my precense ... "

Vincent noded , a few seconds after strange whispers could be heard , the whispers were like if spirits themselves were speaking insides Vincent head , the whispers were saying

" Remember ... not ... in ... my ... precense .... why ... believe ... in .... a ... faith ... so ... fake .... remember .... remember .... faith .... fake ... "

Those whispers sent chills to Vincent ..

" WHAT was THAT ? " Vincent asked

- Valek - " But what Vincent ? i heard nothing ... " Valek said knowing perfectly what was happening , he was mainly hiding his game ..

Right after Valek was done speaking Vincent saw flashes , fragments of images of his own crosses lying outside , blood dripping from them ..

Vincent shaked his head not really believing what was happening ..

" What is it ... ? " Said Valek , once again he knew , but was mainly hiding his game ..

Vincent frowned for a moment and then looked up at Valek and said " Nothing my liege ... "

Valek noded as he threw the Elysium Card toward Vincent , Vincent catched it in mid air and quickly looked at it ..

- Valek - " This will grant you entry to our Elysium , i suggest you to meet Kindred of thy Clan first , seek the other Cappadocian's , speak with them .. Batgirl you will want to meet ... be sure you do ... "

(( sorry for the time man , here is my last addition on it :) , will post more on it soon :) ))
