Monsters and Hunters

"That's funny. Only time I left that room was when they were poking and prodding. Or when they stuck me in a metal box to do my business."

"That's..awful!" Katherine frowned. You can't just keep a living person trapped in a room like that. And for that long of a time period as well.
Not to mention that they were out all day, and he hasn't touched a single human. There has to be some mistake.

"Are you..just going to let them lock you up again? You're not even going to hide?"

"First things first. A little history lesson. We were here first. Monsters lived in peace with man and even integrated into their society. Until they noticed. Then they called us a scourge of the earth. Tried, and still are trying, to wipe us off the face of the earth. No. I don't plan on going quietly. I plan on fighting and showing them how inhuman I can be. That's all we are to them.....not human, then its gotta die. That's how they see the world."

"It's even worse than I thought it was..." She said quietly, mostly to herself. She always thought that humans attacked out of defense or fear..but in this situation..they brought the danger upon themselves. No wonder she was never able to come out here alone.

"Aren't you worried that they'd kill you? I mean, with all that attacking you'll be doing..it seems like an option they'll take..."

"Dying is always an option. I suppose it's more like a bump in the road than anything else. If I die, I'll just hVe to get over it."

"I usually prefer to do the duct taping." He chuckled to himself, before stopping. "Hold up."

The truck slowed to a halt in the desired position, as quietly and inconspicuously as Orlando's loud and ugly truck could be.
Alexandra got out quickly, armed and ready for business. She waved Orlando and Wilson out of the truck.
"Alright Kadmoss, what is it?" She asked in a hushed tone. "Are you in position? Something... wrong?" She emphasized the last word, hinting that something wrong would be out of the ordinary. As far as she knew, everything was going smoothly. She hesitated at the side of the door. If Kadmoss was ready, then she'd signal for everyone to enter the library at once.
She also made sure to glare at Orlando and Wilson. This operation would have to be serious, and Orlando's recent "joking" mood would not be tolerated.

"I can smell werewolf, not far." He dismounted and ran into an alley way where the body of a werewolf lay. It's arms and feet cut off.

Other werewolves, hm? Interesting. She had always known this city was a hotbed for monsters. Funny enough that said information should be validated at a time like this.
"Details, Kadmoss. Quickly. Give me the need to know, and then get in position. If there's anything that werewolf body can tell us about the situation, I need to know it asap." Despite the quiet volume, she still managed to put extra force and brevity into her statements.
She checked over the tranquilizers in her gun. Loaded.
Eyeing the library doors every so often... repeatedly... quickly.

Anxious to get going on the capture.

"I don't know what I can tell you, werewolf kills are usually quick but brutal. Victims torn apart, if he fought the other were wolf I could expect to see bite and claw marks. This one looks as if his limbs were cut off and taken, it's like no werewolf kill I've seen. The meat is tough, he knew he was dying and was in pain."

Katherine figured that was getting late but she had to know the answer to one more question, one that was bugging her all day.

"Why..did you help me? You could have gotten far away from this place and raise your chances of being free..so..why did you let me slow you down?"

Alexandra paused. This death was much unlike the facility deaths the night of the escape. Blood, gore, and mauling. Seemed too clean for the werewolf alone.
Gabriel was ruled out of the situation as well, as the demonic being seemed to enjoy playing bloody murder as well.

There was always the option, however, that it was someone else.
"He must have an accomplice. Someone with him. Who it is, we don't know. Proceed with caution, let me know when you're ready to enter the library."

Two monsters in the building. Nathaniel himself and... whatever else was with him. Here's to hoping it wasn't something larger and more threatening.

"I helped you because I could. I allowed you to slow me down because they would've caught up with me anyways. They're here."

Katherine paled.
"H-how do you know?"

"First. Gabriel told me. Secondly....we can both smell them. They've apparently added a demon to their ranks.... Odd. Then there's the Elsen from before...." His gaze drifted towards Kadmoss.

She didn't even bother asking who they were. Instead, she cautiously walked over to where Nathaniel was looking. She was curious to see this demon.

Even though she didn't know what she supposed to be looking for.

*Wilson is nervously inspecting his Sniper rifle, checking the safety, and generally engrossing his attention on the weapon to try and not let himself be suprised by anything he might see in the city*

Stepping out into the street Kadmoss moved towards the library, looking up at nathaniel he felt a warn sensation at the base of his skull, this was it. "Alex." He said quietly so nathaniel couldn't hear him. "I've encountered them, approaching now. I'm maintaining radio silence." He turned off the mic in his ear, and approached them with his hands raised and away from his weapons.

Alexandra quietly opened the door to the library and waved Orlando and Wilson in behind her. Kadmoss was moving in, and now it was their time to get going in as well. Immediately, she moved behind cover, the nearest bookshelf.

Behind rows of books, Alexandra moved towards the sound of conversation in the library. Unlike Kadmoss, she kept a hand on her weapon. She heard the werewolf talking... and a female response. That must be the one responsible for the dead werewolf in the alley... or so she thought.
Radio silence indeed. That was a smart move. Libraries are quiet on any normal day, and the current air was ripe with tension. You could have heard a page turn from across the library, but thankfully, the talking ebbed away from the silence that would have blown their cover.

She kept a good eye on the situation over the tops of books and through shelves. Kadmoss approaching from behind, as planned. No hands on his weapons... wait, no hands on his weapons?!
What was he DOING?!

"We both know the other is there." He called out to werewolf and Gabriel. "Your demon friend has sensed me by now no doubt, as I have sensed him. Why don't we come out and talk?"
