[Caput]

"Presumably." Zaon gives the others a look, as if to say "Are we going to do this? Should we go take a look?"

Niall happily suggests that "This has all the makings of a bad idea!" Her exuberance is immediately obvious, and you can tell she wants to be right there when it happens. Allon-sy!

[Code H]

Incen turned to Zaon, a reckless eager grin on his face. I knew I kept you around for a reason.

But I think I've gotten into enough trouble for the day already, so when the Wolf comes around, this one's on you, okay? He asked bargainingly.

Incen even managed to smile at Niall, At least she had the right sort of attitude. He could get behind that.

[Caput]

Zaon waves away Incen's concerns. "Oh please, what ever we're about to do is clearly all a big misunderstanding. It'll be fine."

[Muggins]

"So, in the interests of security, we're going to investigate?" Marigold queried, tapping her fingertips in idle thought. She'd eaten enough to satisfy her stomach, and after that she'd planned on just heading back home for the night anyway. "Sure, some amateur investigation on a cold night sounds thrilling," she grumbled, "I suppose it wouldn't hurt to check. Then we can come back here, tell everyone it's just an immature prank and get on with our lives."

Katina thinks that playing detective is a bad idea, but she rather preemptively chop the culprit's head off BEFORE the culprit came and chop their heads off. Besides, maybe, just maybe, this whole thing was a prank, and there are no bodies to be found, then she could go home with her children without a scare.

Turning to her children, the cat mother grabbed both by shoulder. "Listen sweetie. Mommy is going to take a look outside with these people, so you two stay here with the rest of the people, and head back home when everyone else is also going home. And don't forget to lock the doors!" Then turning her attention to the older sibling. "Pocus, make sure to take care of your little sister, okay?"

After making sure her children understood the basic safety, Katina returned to the four daredevils. "If the sheriff shows up I'll talk to him myself. If we're going then we better go quickly... the sooner we get to the bottom of this the better."

Heading out of the party, you stumble into the street, before a disturbing scene takes place.

You see a long shiny limo, speeding across the street, while being chased by bigby and snow. They get inside of bigby's car and start to speed after it.

How Interesting.

Katina's car is parked here, they could probably have a high speed pursuit or maybe tail them sneakily. Mr. Flames will have to watch his hands, though. Unluckily for them, her crappy car can only go about 25M/hr.

[Fon]

Katina watched what happened, but wasn't sure what to do. "Do we want to chase them down?" She asked the others, this whole thing is starting to look like a disaster. Fortunately Katina hasn't been drinking, thanks to her kids, which means she can drive without too much trouble.

OoC If everyone agrees to chase after them, Katina will take the car. But whether we try to pursuit quickly or tail sneakily depends on what everyone prefers. Personally I think we should chase after them quickly if we want to catch them at all.

[Muggins]

That night was certainly turning out more interesting than Marigold had first expected, and she could barely control her excitement as she hurried alongside the others. "Go for it, Katina!" she said, grinning, "pedal to the metal, and all that!"

OoC Chaaarge!

[Fon]

"Well, if you say so." Katina replied, slightly worried and not convinced that this is a good idea. "Hop in, guys, and fasten your seat belt!" The catfolk said as she unlocked her car doors and moved into the driver's seat.

The car's engine came to life as soon as Katina turned the key; it seems like today is one of the better days for her car, as sometimes it could take quite a few tries before she could even get this old car going.

[Hanz]

Katina: Uh oh, it's that rush again, your barbarian senses begin to kick in as soon as you feel the vibration of the engine, smashing that pedal with your leg, the car begins to make a loud VHHHHHHPRRRGHHHTTTT noise as it speeds out of it's lane, most of your passengers getting the back of their heads smashing into the soft cushions, their cheeks flapping as the car accelerates. Your eyes turning red with excitement, you haven't felt this alive since you were fighting back in the homelands.

Anyway, your car reaches it's maximum speed, tailing Bigby's car onto a bridge, the radio turns on by itself because your car is a piece of junk, starting up on the hip hop channel. Routinely, they're playing the Top hit of that year. That Damn 'Hip Hop' music, the only Hip hopping you were doing is over your defeated victims' skulls, is what you say to yourself.

CONDITION Katina is under 'Road-Rush'! When under the 'Road-Rush' condition, the driver of an automobile is susceptible to his surroundings hyperactively, giving him +3 on vehicular reflex rolls to avoid oncoming obstacles, and a +50 to safe deceleration, allowing him to make emergency stops easier. However, after the 'Road-Rush' condition wears off, the driver is then 'Road-Fatigued', giving him a -3 to vehicular reflex rolls to avoid oncoming obstacles, and has 'tunnel vision', reducing his FOV by 50 ft. Continuing to drive while 'Road-Fatigued' can cause you to have Motion Sickness.

[Code H]

Incen looked dubiously at the little car. He smirked to himself. If this didn't end quickly, it would get uncomfortable.

Make this quick hey? He said as he piled into the car. Or I'm going to do some damage to your upholstery. And I don't really need to feel worse for you okay?

You sure you want to do this Momma Cat? Incen found himself asking. I mean, I'm sure you don't need the trouble...

Then the car suddenly seemed to fall out from under him. His head cracked back up into the rear window. Hell!


After a moment to acclimate to the speed, Incen gave Zaon a shoulder jab to the ribs. What do you think the odds are of some mundy seeing if I shoot out their tires? He asked with a grin, pointing his fingers as a gun. Oh, I know I'd get in trouble for it, but you know, as long as no mundy sees right?

[Caput]

"Somewhere between a hundred and two hundred percent. More importantly I'll see you and I'll never stop telling the story of that hilarious dumb thing you did. Anyway, do you always call her Momma Cat, or..." Zaon appears to have acquired a shadow, having dismissed Noaz. It's not ideal, but it's required to fit everybody in the car.
