What we found when we got there wasn't a church anymore. Desecration, destruction and perversion and worse than that, there were women locked up in cages, probably badly abused. It soon became clear who was responsible for that, when several more women appeared (yes, appeared like out the shadows. Creepy.) who practically bragged about it and apparently wanted us to join their victims. They'd picked the wrong people, though. Robert Grimm did some sort of shapeshifting and became a huge wolf-man with silver claws, Cassidy started glowing again and I brought out the kung fu. These vampires, for that's what they were, were almost as fast as me, though, and very hardy. They could take many of my punches and strikes without even blinking, but eventually we defeated them. One strange thing happened during that fight, though: At one point it seemed like I remembered something I knew I had never done before. A technique that involved not just focus and precision, but also some sort of flowing chi energy or something like that. I never believed the sensei, when he'd spoken about chi or cosmic energy, but this ... unless I was hallucinating wildly, there was some manifestation of flames and the whole building shook!<br> | What we found when we got there wasn't a church anymore.

− | More superpowers, I guess. Who knows, what | + | More superpowers, I guess. Who knows, what might be possible! Anyway, by the time we'd defeated the vampires, the others were joining us at the church - and thank god, they'd managed to disable all the bombs! Together we questioned the remaining vampiress and found out something about how the whole vampirism thing works - which was all news to me, but some of the others seemed already aware. Apparently vampires can create new vampires, by drinking someone's blood, then giving them some of their own. There are many of them, they have existed for a long time and are very dedicated to keeping everyone else in the dark about their existance. And as if that wasn't already bad enough, apparently their 'Queen' has returned, whom they call 'Troyle'. And she has plans to kill every living being on the planet. And Darth Brown, the evil preacher, is some sort of favored agent of hers, now called Sins-of-the-Fathers-something-something. If I hadn't looked her in the eyes as she said all of this and if I hadn't seen the church basement, the ancient coffin, the books where apparently someone had tried to learn the history of the last two thousand years ... well, even so it seems unbelievable. But on the other hand, I had seen Brown and his plans ...<br> |
