Thread: Nevermore Baltimore (Morell and Moon Struck Fox)

it was a bit creepy in the park after the sun went down, exceptionally creepy after all, but for the two independant 'cops' it was a job that had to be done. Selene , was dressed in black leather from head to toe, so she was protected from most claws, fangs, or even knives. Not to mention it made her look hot, which was always an added bonus. She was a Dragonborn, she was a bit young to be able to turn into her full Dragon form yet, but she was a powerful opponent nonetheless with the ability to grow her wings and claws, she could rip a person to shreds before they could even blink, not to mention the ability to breath fire whenever she wanted. Walking beside her was Demona , a Gargoyle of sorts, though she was more of a Demon than a Gargoyle, with her ability to walk in the sun. she was intimidating just to look at, and while she could walk in the sun, she did prefer to spend her days as stone to recover from any injuries and rest, so she was glad that it was dark. it helped that she had perfect night vision and didn't have to worry about stubbing her bare toes against rocks or fountains. they both held their guns tightly in their hands, while not enough to kill some of the more powerful creatures of the Nevernever it was certainly enough to slow anything down. with the potion, Demona looked completely human, so the very few people in the park didn't even look twice at the women with their shiny police badges pinned to their leather outfits and their guns out. it was common in Baltimore apparently. i don't see anything yet. Demona admitted, her eyes cast around the Park intently. fifteen kids had gone missing, eight of them in this very park. five girls and three boys. the others had vanished from the local High School, two boys and a girl, a church, a boy and a girl, and the local mall, two girls and a boy. all in all seven boys and nine girls where gone, vanished without warning or sign. very troubling. they spread apart a little, each of them looking in opposite directions now, looking for any hint of the Nevernever. this was their very first official task from the White Counsel and they did not want to screw things up. they each took care in sending the normal humans away, warning them that it was dangerous. they had to interrupt two... fornicating couples, and a hippie smoking a joint. they threatened to arrest the three drunk boys before they left, and in a hurry too. with the park cleared out, they moved in on the Clifton Gate House. neither of them liked the look of the creepy old Gothica place, but they where there to do a job, and they would do it. so with slow, careful steps they both got closer and closer. they nearly screamed and wet themselves when Demona stepped on a twig. Calm down! Selene whispered, more to herself than to Demona. we have to be calm. going into this all hyped up isn't going to help us in the least little bit. we need to be calm so we don't accidentally shoot an innocent... Demona just nodded and tightened her grip on the gun to calm her shaking hands and took several deep breaths. now... they disappeared somewhere around here, and there have been rumors of lights... what do you think our luck would be of a simple human rapist on the loose? Demona shook her head and Selene nodded. yeah... i thought so. she muttered, swallowing thickly as they split up and walked in separate directions all around the Clifton Gate House. looking for any hint, any suspicion of the Nevernever. both of them desperately hoped that they wouldn't have to go inside the creepy place, but with a full circuit around the house showing no signs of anything supernatural, they walked up to the Door and Demona pulled out the key, unlocked it, and swung the door open while Selene covered her, the gun aimed into the darkness of the house. see anything Selene asked, Demona shaking her head again as she glanced inside. just old furniture covered in tablecloths. with their hearts in their throats they stepped inside, and started to sweep the ancient building, praying that the children at least hadn't been eaten.
