Keron shrugged as Elijah asked his question. His eyes pierced into the man, but he was unable to get a hold upon the mortal. Frustration deepened his brow. Perhaps this man was more than he seemed. What do you think it tastes like? He stops himself as he starts to feel a bit of this man's hidden power flare up.
It is easy to tell that the mention of a couple girls disappearing is of great interest to the bartender. He takes another glance around the bar to see if everyone is taken care of before leaning closer to this human. It is best if we talk more about this later. I am amazed that your missing persons case would bring you from Boston to here, but I've seen and heard of stranger things. There has been an issue...one that concerns myself and my own patrons involving missing persons. If you don't mind staying afterhours we can talk some more. I should be able to close up in a hour or two.

Just as Kieron's response seemed to solidify the fact that the two indeed had something to talk about beyond what they would want in a typical bar conversation the sound of screeching tires echoed through the bar. The two got up and ran to the window with just about every other patron in the bar and as they did they saw a white van screeching down the road from a back alley and heading toward the enterance to the turnpike. It was weaving around traffic and driving like it was on some sort of crazed mission. Then just as it made the on ramp something seemed to jump off an overpass and land on top of the van... something not quite human.
Instantly Kieron knew that was the van of the Ghoul Elijah had shown him in the picture only moments ago. A ghoul with a youngling as his master was now racing out of town with a fury just as he was told to look for anything unusual. He needed to know what was going on with that van, the problem being that he was a new yorker and new yorkers didn't have cars, especially vampire new yorkers. As he looked next to him he noticed the car keys in Elijah's hands. The two had just become unusual allies but if they wanted to catch that van they would have to hurry. |

Pincha... The rest of the Spanish curse words faded under the vampire's breath. Quickly glancing around his eyes dart to Elijah's keys. I haven't driven a car in fifty or so years, do you mind? He nods towards the keys.
Not waiting for a response, his eyes scanned the bar for a well-known face. Colin He shouted. Watch the bar, I have to take care of this. Colin didn't hesitate. This wasn't the first time Kieron had to leave the bar mid-shift to handle something for his mistress. He preferred when he could do it on his own time, but these sudden events were unavoidable. He did curse silently though, a popular Toraentor had entered and was sure to attract quite a few admirers as well as a high check; in which case a high tip. Swinging open the door, Kieron rushed out scanning for a more recently parked car. Which one is yours?

Elijah could see that his answer is not really satisfactory for the bartender. But he was quite surprised to hear that Kieron wanted to speak with him privately after his work. So he definitely knows something. Elijah got a feeling that the problem is not so simple, but at least he should get some lead from Kieron. So he nodded immediately before hearing the screeching tire and seeing a white van on dangerous driving. When he turned his head back to Kieron, suddenly he got the inkling that was the van that he is searching for.
Kieron's sudden request for car to chase it affirm the conjecture. But why he immediately asked him to come together? Although a bit suspicious, he runs outside and open a SUV that he rented from Hertz by electronic lock. Then he shouts : "Get in if you want." Elijah immediately starts his car and then starts Dice Wits or Dex and Drive:

Kieron and Elijah jump in the rental car as they take off after the van. They truthfully did not know each other well but their objectives somehow seemed in sync. It also was somewhat ominous that this van was now hauling down the world with someone or something on top. As Elijah punched the gas he took off after their target. Normally it might have been a bit hard to keep up with the van but its swerving definitely helped. What didn't help was the sharp turn where Elijah took off the side mirror when he rode too close to someone parked in the street.
The van had gotten a little farther than he had hoped but finally the two were able to catch up... |
