Colin nodded and stepped into the silver circle, "There's no place like home... Thank you, Master Arlu."

"Not a problem Mr Wainwright."
Master Arlu said, he waited util Jon had entered the circle as well, at least he saw him, ad then he made the last few symbols in his own arms to enact his effect. The world durned red around you and you felt like you where swimmig in blood and was birthed out the other side, it was not the most...comfortable teleportation you have ever experienced but then you stood in the large ritual chamber in Steelhaven's basement, competely dry, the feeling of blood and gore gone.
"Verbena are going to Verbena I guess."
Jon commented sourely, even if he to was completley dry he could not resist wiping himself down with his hands.
"Well at least we got home."

Colin paused for a few seconds, then shrugged, "That's the second least pleasant means of travel I've experienced. Which reminds me, I need to bring a team to clean out my Labyrinth before we go to Horizon, too..."

He grimaced a little, then headed over to the little storage box to retrieve his phone, and checked for messages before saving the ghoul's number in his contacts, and then called Robin Leeland.

Colin paused for a few seconds, then shrugged, "That's the second least pleasant means of travel I've experienced. Which reminds me, I need to bring a team to clean out my Labyrinth before we go to Horizon, too..."

"I still find it a bit disturbing that you have a Labyrinth in the first place Colin."
Jon said with a chuckle.

He grimaced a little, then headed over to the little storage box to retrieve his phone, and checked for messages before saving the ghoul's number in his contacts, and then called Robin Leeland.

You had gotten a message from a company selling nature and wildlife magazine who wanted to to buy a subscription, otherwise nothing. You called Leeland and after a while the old vampire replied.
"Mr Wainwright...how may I be of assistance?"
He asked warmly.

"I still find it a bit disturbing that you have a Labyrinth in the first place Colin."
Jon said with a chuckle.

Colin grinned, "Well, yes, it rather is, but the big lunk is a sweetie."

"Mr Wainwright...how may I be of assistance?"
He asked warmly.

He smiled with relief, "Good evening, Mr. Leeland. I just called to hear if the old General had taken his legion home... The immediate threat may be dealt with, but I'm afraid the enemy is only stalled, not stopped. It's a nuisance I'll be happy to elaborate on later, though."

[Anja Rebekka Schultze]

[Seattle, 2015]

Colin grinned, "Well, yes, it rather is, but the big lunk is a sweetie."

"A sewwtie perhaps but still a rather disturbing sweetie."
Jon replied wryly.

He smiled with relief, "Good evening, Mr. Leeland. I just called to hear if the old General had taken his legion home... The immediate threat may be dealt with, but I'm afraid the enemy is only stalled, not stopped. It's a nuisance I'll be happy to elaborate on later, though."

"Yes he has...I have managed to talk him into goig home ad findig is pace in the offered afterlife, it took som doing but sometimes peace is better than revenge when that revenge will acomplish nothing."
The old vampire replied.
"Hum...I see this enemy you speak of is it the same one as before?"

[Warpmind]

[Seattle, 2015]

"A sewwtie perhaps but still a rather disturbing sweetie."
Jon replied wryly.

Colin chuckled, "Very much so, yes."

"Yes he has...I have managed to talk him into goig home ad findig is pace in the offered afterlife, it took som doing but sometimes peace is better than revenge when that revenge will acomplish nothing."
The old vampire replied.
"Hum...I see this enemy you speak of is it the same one as before?"

He let out a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness... Mars will be pleased. And yes, the enemy, one Wallace Jace, is still up to further atrocities. Having lost the ghost legion, he is pursuing the temporal powers of the True Brujah; several have been abducted recently, and... eh, it's a bit of a long story, but unless I can stop him, he'll be a formidable Methuselah within twenty years. I've got a little time to stop him yet, though..."

"It matters little where the mags who mgiht ahve advice to give are located, I can travel."
The Aanasi said.
"Unfortunatly I ca not do such a thing. Ananasa might choose to bestoy Gifts on a Kinfolk but that is rare, but it is beyond my power."

"Those Master may not appreciate it if I just gave there names away. I'll ask for you among the Master mages that I know. I'll let you know what I learn later."

"Caleb my son...soon I will be wit you again and we will find a way to fix tis. I will commune with the Mother and I am sure her wisdom will lead to a solution."
The wer spider said and Caleb seamed to calm a little though he was still clearly upset.
"Go to sleep my son, rest and let tese pepole take care of you ad I will see what solutions I ca find."
That raspy voice said and Caleb nodded.

"So Caleb? Do you think you can go to sleep now? I'll keep the phone here so that your mom won't leave you. You can listen to her voice as you rest."

[Anja Rebekka Schultze]

[Steelhaven, 6.15]

Colin chuckled, "Very much so, yes."

"Are you sure that thing is safe Colin...he did come fromt he Nephandi."

He let out a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness... Mars will be pleased. And yes, the enemy, one Wallace Jace, is still up to further atrocities. Having lost the ghost legion, he is pursuing the temporal powers of the True Brujah; several have been abducted recently, and... eh, it's a bit of a long story, but unless I can stop him, he'll be a formidable Methuselah within twenty years. I've got a little time to stop him yet, though..."

"Are you sure that Wallace Jace are going after the True Brujah Mr Wainwright?"
The old vampire asked.
"I am also not sure how he would be able to harvest their powers. I am however pleased that we have managed to stop the advnt of the gost legio and given those old fighters for freedom rest, the rest they truely deserve."
He was silent for a moment.
"A Metuselash...that means he most likely...hum...that is not good news."

"Those Master may not appreciate it if I just gave there names away. I'll ask for you among the Master mages that I know. I'll let you know what I learn later."

"I guess I will have to be content witht that."
The Aanasi replied.
"Please keep me posted if you find ayoe who can help my son, and I will contiue dearcing on my end."

"So Caleb? Do you think you can go to sleep now? I'll keep the phone here so that your mom won't leave you. You can listen to her voice as you rest."

Calb did not reply he just looked at you tears in his eyes but he seamed calmer and exhaustion would eventually force him to sleep. The werspider cotinued to softly talk to her son trying to assure him that all would be okey.

Serge waited for a a bit, letting Caleb hear his mothers voice. He was waiting for Caleb to fall asleep naturally before daring to cast any magick on him.

Though in the meantime he worked on a small sketch depicting the mother son duo playing together.

[Steelhaven, 6.15]

"Are you sure that thing is safe Colin...he did come fromt he Nephandi."

Colin smiled wryly, "Well, now, 'safe' is not the word I would use. 'Manageable risk' is probably more accurate. I don't think he will harm me, nor any friends I introduce him to - but I wouldn't let him loose in the dog park."

"Are you sure that Wallace Jace are going after the True Brujah Mr Wainwright?"
The old vampire asked.
"I am also not sure how he would be able to harvest their powers. I am however pleased that we have managed to stop the advnt of the gost legio and given those old fighters for freedom rest, the rest they truely deserve."
He was silent for a moment.
"A Metuselash...that means he most likely...hum...that is not good news."

He frowned, "Quite certain; in the future I saw, he'd become a vampire and learned to control his powers at a frightful pace, highly accelerated according to the Elder who explained the situation - it fits with temporal manipulation. And the man is an extremely competent geneticist, and a specialist in body fluids. If anyone can drain a Bloodline, and concentrate their powers for his own use, it is him. I've encountered dark gods, entities that eat away at a man's will, turning one's better judgment against itself, but... even next to beings that want the world to be unmade - beings of such power that if unchallenged, they could unravel the world - Wallace Jace is the worst monster I have ever faced. As a mortal man, as a ghost, and in a yet-preventable future, as Kindred. One thing is treating the suffering of others as a necessary sacrifice on one's way to power, but Jace considers it a bonus..."
He sighed, "Well, with the ghost legion at peace, my part of the bargain with Mars is concluded, and a Kindred is bought free from Hell... That, at least, is a burden off my soul."

((OOC: I think Colin and Jon would be back at Steelhaven somewhat later than 18.15 - there was the added driving time, after all.))

"Well at least the glass held."
Amadeus said with a chuckle.
"I guess bones will break before the glass then, to bad you have to admire the visual effect of smasking someones had through a window, or the etire person for that matter."

True... but how do you plan to survive long enough to find the weak points, eh?' she quipped. 'And while a HIT-V is a tough mother, it's got no flexibility, like.

"Genrally by being quick and smart."
The old Verbena said.
"That is true the HIT-Mark V is all durability but it is nto to quick..."
He agreed then he nodded approvingly at the last statement.
"Wll in a sparrig match both parties know there will be a fight but yes never give an anemy a warning shot, go in for th kill as quickly as possible."

[Infirmary, 6.15]

Nicole looked around for Alvarez, hoping to have a quick chat to her...

A youg woman with sevral scars in her face which made her look a bit like a patch work doll looked up from the man she was feeding soup and noticed Nicole looking around.
"Are you lookig for Dr Alvarez Miss?"
She asked.
"You are Miss Bouchard are you not?"

"I will don't worry. I'll do my best."

"Child I am a wolf spider and my son is hurt I am going to worry but I appriciate your aid."
That raspy voice said.

Serge waited for a a bit, letting Caleb hear his mothers voice. He was waiting for Caleb to fall asleep naturally before daring to cast any magick on him.

Caleb eventually fell into a deep sleep as his mother continued to soothingly speak to him.

Colin smiled wryly, "Well, now, 'safe' is not the word I would use. 'Manageable risk' is probably more accurate. I don't think he will harm me, nor any friends I introduce him to - but I wouldn't let him loose in the dog park."

Jon nodded at that and sigh.
"Well you do have interesting riends Colin.

He frowned, "Quite certain; in the future I saw, he'd become a vampire and learned to control his powers at a frightful pace, highly accelerated according to the Elder who explained the situation - it fits with temporal manipulation.

"I see...I have heard of soemthing that can explain such an...exllerated development ad if I am right about my suspicions it is a dark thing indeed but ti is something I am not comfortable talkig about over a telephone call, it is not a secret I would want out there."
Leeland said darkly.
"And not something I would want in the hands of the monster you describe either my good man."

He sighed, "Well, with the ghost legion at peace, my part of the bargain with Mars is concluded, and a Kindred is bought free from Hell... That, at least, is a burden off my soul."

"My Sire is pleased as well, he might be resting but he know that his men is finally at peace, finally free after all these centuries. Also he instructed me to say fuck the Romans."
The vampire said with a chuckle.

[Warpmind]

[Steelhaven, 6.30]

Jon nodded at that and sigh.
"Well you do have interesting riends Colin.

Colin smiled wryly, "If you only knew. Well, best make those mint candies in the morning and send a friendly gift basket to Old Man Wrinkle, too..."

"I see...I have heard of soemthing that can explain such an...exllerated development ad if I am right about my suspicions it is a dark thing indeed but ti is something I am not comfortable talkig about over a telephone call, it is not a secret I would want out there."

"And not something I would want in the hands of the monster you describe either my good man."

He nodded, "I understand; we can discuss it at the range, perhaps, in private... I imagine this is something I should like to know about, not to exploit it, but to prevent it..."

"My Sire is pleased as well, he might be resting but he know that his men is finally at peace, finally free after all these centuries. Also he instructed me to say fuck the Romans."
The vampire said with a chuckle.

He barked out a short laugh, "An old Roman friend of mine expressed the same sentiment toward your Sire. I don't think the two should meet. It would be unhealthy for everyone in a very large radius."

[Anja Rebekka Schultze]

[Steelhaven, 6.30]

Colin smiled wryly, "If you only knew. Well, best make those mint candies in the morning and send a friendly gift basket to Old Man Wrinkle, too..."

"I have already expressed my concerns for your friedsip with a Paradox Spirit Colin, that is the kind of thing that will come back ad bite you i the butt."
Jon said with a frown.

He nodded, "I understand; we can discuss it at the range, perhaps, in private... I imagine this is something I should like to know about, not to exploit it, but to prevent it..."

"I can agree to discuss such thing in private when we meet yes, but be aware that even posessig such knowledge will put a target on your back if it is found out that you possess it."
Leeland warned.

He barked out a short laugh, "An old Roman friend of mine expressed the same sentiment toward your Sire. I don't think the two should meet. It would be unhealthy for everyone in a very large radius."

"Yes when superatural cratures that old and powerful meet oe another and do not like one another then the rage of poteial ccollateral daage is rather wide and rather destructive."

Jon said with a frown.

Colin hesitated, frowning slightly, "You have? Hum... perhaps you have... Still, it's less of a friendship, and more of keeping relations cordial, I suppose - which is, in his specific case, wiser than maintaining hostile relations. With him, it may come to bite me in the butt, with any other Paradox Spirit, it is inevitable..."

"I can agree to discuss such thing in private when we meet yes, but be aware that even posessig such knowledge will put a target on your back if it is found out that you possess it."
Leeland warned.

He nodded, "Presumably, there would be an amount of knowledge that might help me stop Jace, but not enough to make me a target? Hum, no matter... what I need is to save the Bloodline from Wallace Jace, not reverse whatever future misdeeds he has lined up after the fact."

"Yes when superatural cratures that old and powerful meet oe another and do not like one another then the rage of poteial ccollateral daage is rather wide and rather destructive."

He grinned, "I suppose 'incarnate and independently mobile' describes the desired state of existence well enough. There's a good reason why gods and the like rarely manifest on Earth - I've felt the power of their mere presence. I'd prefer not to experience the sensation of their actually inflicting their will on my surroundings or person..."

"That is true, thy are mostly shock troops that do best when under leadership that control their every movement."
The old Verbena said.
"Still their resistence to magick mak them a problem."

'Yet you cannot really practice that, can you? Well, not without getting some live targets...'

"Well somerstraint hav to be observed for safty but with the ability to heal most injuries my sparring sessiosn can be more...ral than wat sleepers can safely do."
Amadeus replied.

[Infirmary, 6.15]

Yeah... where is she?' looking a little confused.

"One of Stelhaven's prisoeers, I believe his name was Thomas have requested a medical examination to make sure someone amed Wallace Jace have not done anythig to his physiology, since Dr Lee was busy here he asked Dr Alvarez to handle the examination."
The yougn woman said. Amadeus pointd towards the stairs.
"Thomas is in my apartment, I can shwo the way if you want Miss Bocuhard."

[Steelhaven, 6.30]

Colin hesitated, frowning slightly, "You have? Hum... perhaps you have... Still, it's less of a friendship, and more of keeping relations cordial, I suppose - which is, in his specific case, wiser than maintaining hostile relations. With him, it may come to bite me in the butt, with any other Paradox Spirit, it is inevitable..."

"Most would prefer no relations with a Paradox Spirit Colin."
Jon said with a sigh.
"Well I doubt I will b able to disuade you of this notion."

He nodded, "Presumably, there would be an amount of knowledge that might help me stop Jace, but not enough to make me a target? Hum, no matter... what I need is to save the Bloodline from Wallace Jace, not reverse whatever future misdeeds he has lined up after the fact."

"I do ntot ink there is a middle gorund to be found ehre Mr Wainwright either you have the kowledge and will be deemed a threat by many or you do not."
Leelad replained.
"As for the True Brujah I can nto help you there that blooine ad my Clan ahve othign to do with one antoher."
He said soudign a bit anoyed at the mention fot he True Brujah.

He grinned, "I suppose 'incarnate and independently mobile' describes the desired state of existence well enough. There's a good reason why gods and the like rarely manifest on Earth - I've felt the power of their mere presence. I'd prefer not to experience the sensation of their actually inflicting their will on my surroundings or person..."

"A good enough term I guess Mr Wainwright. I exist, I think, I am what classification of life I would be though is something else. Now as for...gods ideed to witess their class would be truly terrible."
The old vampire muttered reverently.
"Truly terrible indeed."

[Warpmind]

[Steelhaven, 6.30]

"Most would prefer no relations with a Paradox Spirit Colin."
Jon said with a sigh.
"Well I doubt I will b able to disuade you of this notion."

Colin sighed, "Yes, well, my work rather means I have to end up rubbing against his particular domain, so dealing with him is inevitable. Dealing with him in a mutually hostile and confrontational manner is, fortunately, merely optional, and had bloody best be avoided. Sending a few candies and offering tea when he shows up is a very small price to pay for keeping my continued existence and magical ability intact."

"I do ntot ink there is a middle gorund to be found ehre Mr Wainwright either you have the kowledge and will be deemed a threat by many or you do not."

He said soudign a bit anoyed at the mention fot he True Brujah.

He nodded, "That sounds reasonable."
He paused, "I was wondering about that, actually; not wanting to pry or prod at a sore topic, but... would you care to enlighten me as to why the bloodline is apparently... inadvisable to discuss openly?"

"A good enough term I guess Mr Wainwright. I exist, I think, I am what classification of life I would be though is something else. Now as for...gods ideed to witess their class would be truly terrible."
The old vampire muttered reverently.
"Truly terrible indeed."

He nodded, "Well, in any case, I have taken enough of your time, I think - there is more work to be done this night, before I can rest, so I will contact you again a bit closer to Christmas, so we can arrange the exact day and hour for our little contest, hmm? I will, naturally, bring the agreed-upon prize, for your perusal, assuming I have the time to finish it to satisfaction by then."

"Well I guess there are some logic tot hat Colin but for most tryig to avoid building up enough Paradox to summon a Paradox Spirit, much less Old Man Wrikle himself seams to be a better option."
Jon said and he did nto sound convinced.

He nodded, "That sounds reasonable."
He paused, "I was wondering about that, actually; not wanting to pry or prod at a sore topic, but... would you care to enlighten me as to why the bloodline is apparently... inadvisable to discuss openly?"

Leeland sigh at that.
"It have to do witht heir claim that they are well...te true Brujah. According to legend there was first one being who wet by that ame, the lieage founder, and she sired the True Brujah but she was betrayed and a second fouder came into beig and the main Clan is from this interlooper, or at least that is what the True Brujah claim, this makes them little loved aong my Clan. Also they have beef with the Ventrue and have generally made themselves unpopular."
The old vampire explained.
"It is more to it than that, but that would be the short explination."

He nodded, "Well, in any case, I have taken enough of your time, I think - there is more work to be done this night, before I can rest, so I will contact you again a bit closer to Christmas, so we can arrange the exact day and hour for our little contest, hmm?

"I look forwards to our meeting Mr Wainwright, and I think our contest will be quite ejoyable. For now though ahve a plesant night and stay safe."

Caleb eventually fell into a deep sleep as his mother continued to soothingly speak to him.

A mother's voice. A pure symbol of safety against an unforgiving world.

Serge thought that as he watched Caleb fall asleep. Then carefully he carefully placed a picture next to the kinfolk. And through it willed his imagination to help bring brighter dreams to Caleb as he slept and more importantly, ward away nightmares of his horrific past experiences.

Colin sighed, "Some things... are just worth the price."

"If you say so Colin...well I should head up and give my raport to Master Shararya."
Jon said.
"So I will see you later."

He nodded, "At its heart, a dispute of legitimacy. That one is understandable enough, at least."

"It is a bit more to it than that but yes it is about legitimacy."
Leeland replied.

He smiled, "Good health to you, then."
Then he hung up, and strolled toward the stairs, calling the Arthurian.

"And to you as well my good man."
The old vampire said before you hug up. You haded to the stairs and called the Prince of Boston, this was arly for a old vamprie to be up and about and when he replied he still sounded a bit groggy but he did reply.
"Hello...how may I help you?"

Caleb samed to sleep pacefully. Te other Ananasi kinfolk gave you a grateful look, he looked tired tough probably he should not be out of bed.
"Thank you at least now he will get soem rest."
The man whispered i a tired voice.

(OOC: That should do it.)

"If you say so Colin...well I should head up and give my raport to Master Shararya."

"And to you as well my good man."
The old vampire said before you hug up. You haded to the stairs and called the Prince of Boston, this was arly for a old vamprie to be up and about and when he replied he still sounded a bit groggy but he did reply.
"Hello...how may I help you?"

He steeled himself, "Your Highness, this is Mr. Wainwright, I'm sorry for disturbing you so early in the evening, but... I need to speak with you in private, and soon. There is an evil from my society that's threatening to spill over into yours, a monster who has set himself on a course to become a Methuselah and overthrow you. That future can yet be prevented, but I will need your help and blessing to do so... it's a rather sensitive subject."
