The World of Night

"Not before? Really? We have to almost die? What If I say I'm going to kill you and myself right now?" Steven said wild-eyed.

[Kerr]

"Please don't." said Hastur.

[Musicman247]

Steven's face sank and he said, "Ok." They were quickly approaching the hotel.

James tried to haul himself up on to the roof.

[Justice knight]

Lucifer was humming to himself as he wheeled the body to the river. As they approached the bank he looked both ways to see if anyone else was there.

[Gandalf]

Vulpar sped after the running man, aiming to dig his talons into his back.

[Musicman247]

Steven and Hastur finally made it to the hotel.

[Kerr]

"That guard was so nice paying for this hotel stay." said Hastur.

[Musicman247]

"Ha! You're still using Goldilock's money?" Steven asked. "You know Lucy gives me a pretty good allowance every week. I could have paid."

[Kerr]

"Haven't paid yet." said Hastur. "You can still pay if you want." he added entering the hotel.

[Musicman247]

"Sounds good," said Steven. He walked up to the counter. "We'd like a room, please, but we'll only need it for a few hours," he looked at Hastur, "Right? You said only few hours?"

[Kerr]

"Yeah." said Hastur nodding.

[Musicman247]

The clerk gave Steven a funny look, but rented the room to him and gave him two keycards.

They two took the elevator up to the second floor and entered their room: 269.

[Kerr]

"Nice enough place." said Hastur. He went into the bathroom.

[Musicman247]

"Yeah," said Steven. He went and sat on the bed. "Are you thirsty or anything? I'm thinking of getting a soda or a bottled water or something."

[Kerr]

"Sure, pepsi." said Hastur. He closed the bathroom door and locked it. Hastur stripped down before getting into the shower.

I need shadow...

[Musicman247]

Steven took one of the keys and left the other on the dresser next to the television. He went out the door, making sure it shut behind him. He was halfway down the hall when he noticed the sign for the vending machines pointing in the opposite direction. He turned around and walked to the other end of the hallway. He found the vending machines, fed in the bills and made his selections. "Pepsi for Hastur and....I guess I'll have a Pepsi, too." Satisfied with his purchases he began the long walk back to the room. He had been gone for almost twelves minutes when he finally put the keycard in the lock.

[Kerr]

Hastur got out of the shower. He turned it off and started to dry himself with a towel.

[Musicman247]

Steven opened the door. "I'm back and I come bearing gifts of Pepsi most sweet!" he joked. He walked into the room, set Hastur's Pepsi on the dresser and sat back on the bed with his own Pepsi. He opened it and began drinking.

[Kerr]

Hastur got dressed in a rush. He left his hood down, his hair still wet. Hastur left the bathroom. "Thanks." said Hastur. He took his can and sat down on the bed.

[Musicman247]

"No problem," replied Steven. He took a sip of his soda. "So what now? I've never done anything like this before, have you?"

[The-Shadow-One]

The body tumble into the river, no one, not a soul saw.
---
James managed to haul himself up, he felt slightly weaker than normal.
---
Vulpars talons dug into the man and teared away, some of his flesh hanging. He screamed in pain but kept going, seeming to go over the roof tops, simply to die.

[Justice knight]

Lucifer rubbed his hands together before begging to wheel the wheelchair back to the club- still humming as he went.

[Kerr]

"What do you mean?"" asked Hastur. "Before today when was the last time you went somewhere without Lucy?"
