The World of Night

[Kerr]

"Good." said Hastur. Hope I haven't made a mistake.

[Musicman247]

The shimmer was all but forgotten in Steven's mind. "So you did steal somebody's face! Who was he? Actor? Model? Boyfriend? Did you kill him or are there two of you out there?" Steven's mind raced, full of questions.

[The-Shadow-One]

A torso followed the arm, the nails were painted black and a scar ran up across one of the nipples.

[Kerr]

"Don't you think we have more pressing concerns?" said Hastur.

[Musicman247]

"Holy carp!" said Steven as he saw the arm and torso coming out of the shimmer. "Let's get out of here!" Steven stood to run.

[Kerr]

Hastur followed behind.

[cowleyj]

James settled down in the park, and went to sleep.

[The-Shadow-One]

The shimmer exploded, exposing a skinny man, with odd glowing gold yes and black lips, standing there, wearing not much more than shorts, a hand gripped a dagger, not unlike the one skeletor handed to them, he ran after the few.
---
A Kern passed James and scoffed "damned hobos." he said distastfully.

[cowleyj]

Can't be bothered to beat him up. Oh, who am I kidding? James got up and called to the kern," I dare you to say that to my face!"

[Kerr]

Hastur ran to the stairs.

[Musicman247]

Steven picked up the dagger he had dropped on the way out of the room. He followed Hastur to the stairs. "Anything we can do besides run?" Steven asked.

[Kerr]

"There is a fire!" screamed Hastur, pulling a fire alarm.

[Musicman247]

"Where!?" Steven asked. "First a crazy assassin, then a crazy thin guy and now a fire?"

[Kerr]

"Aww, forget it." said Hastur.

[Musicman247]

"Forget what?" Steven turned around to see where the thin man was.

[The-Shadow-One]

The thin man was running after Hastur and Steven, his long legs easily picking up the pace, he noticed the dagger in Stevens hand and seemed to go slightly faster.
---
"very well." the kern said with a look of distaste upon his face "your a dirty, smelly filthy hobo, and a vampire to boot! You'll die when the sun comes up!"

[Kerr]

Hastur ran down the stairs. "Come on." said Hastur.

[cowleyj]

"a'ight. You want a fight?" James said.

[Musicman247]

Steven took off down the stairs as well, following the girl who was a guy. Or was it a guy who was a girl?

[The-Shadow-One]

The Kern scoffed, laughed and walked away.
----
the thin man was almost upon Steven, his red short hair was moving back cooly. He made to grab Steven.

[cowleyj]

James ran up to the kern and punched him in the head.

[The-Shadow-One]

The Kern stumbled from the punch, he yelled out for a guard as he did so.

[cowleyj]

"that'll teach you to scoff at someone you have only just met." James said, before checking the man was ok, then he ran...again.

[Musicman247]

Steven heard something behind him. He spun around and slashed with the knife.

[The-Shadow-One]

The thin man cried out in pain. His voice, high pitched, yelled out "son of a [&@%!]!" he was bleeding across the face a scar in the morning, he grabbed Steven and took his dagger to his throat.
