It's a Strange World

OOC: Sorry for not posting in a while. Been real busy. Day ends tomorrow.
Night
"Hey what are you doing!?" Russell shouted when Martian got out of his chair and moved behind him. "Just bringing Cole here." Martian then dug his claw into the back of Russell's neck. "Hey pup, I've got your pup. Come and get me you little *****." Martian whispered into Russell's ear. "Guards!" Martian shouted. Two guards came rushing in a minute later. "Take him away. Just in case this doesn't work. Oh and give him another dose of wolf's bane." The two men let Russell down and handcuffed his hands and injected him with wolf's bane.

"It's cool. I think everyone has those times that they wish they were Human. I know I have." Cole began to look around. Something was wrong. "Hey pup, I've got your pup. Come and get me you little *****." Martian's words echoed through his mind. Cole's eyes glowed red. "Damn it!" Cole got up and went to his SUV and got behind the wheel. But before he could leave Eva arrived. "Hey fleabag what's going on?" She asked as she walked in. "Martian he has Russell." Cole said as he backed his SUV out of the hanger. "What?! Well I'm coming with you." Eva insisted. "Why do you care fanger?" Cole asked. "Well I may not like you, Russell is bearable. So you going unlock the door or what?" She replied. Cole rolled his eyes and unlocked the doors. "If you two want to come as well, then get in."

 

Night
"Thanks." Cole muttered under his voice. He wasn't accustomed to getting help from anyone. Night was almost up, they only had a little while till he was powerless. Cole drove as fast as he could, his eyes were still red. He was able to sense Russell in the warehouses near the docks.
He parked the SUV not too far away. He couldn't sense Russell anymore, but this was as good as a place as any to start. Cole looked around to see any way in. He didn't have time to find an entrance. He glanced over at a truck parked near by. "That'll do." Cole said to himself. "Ok, I go in and do as much as I can before the sun comes up. As soon as the sun comes up, you girls come in. Angelina and I will give cover fire while Eva skirts around and takes them out from behind." Cole said as he got a small revolver out of the glove box. The revolver had five silver bullets in it. He also grabbed a silver pocket knife.
Cole quickly sneaked over to the truck he saw and ripped the driver's door off. He kneeled down under the wheel and quickly hot wired it. Cole is very skilled at hot wiring, and he did under a minute, a personal best for him. Cole got in and slammed down on the accelerator. He drove the truck straight into the warehouse doors. It scared the hell out of the six guards there. Cole rolled out of the truck bloody and all kinds of messed up. His wounds were quickly healing. "Who first?" Cole said as he popped him shoulder into place. He then cracked his knuckles. The guards looked at him and then at each other, never taking there assault rifle's aim off of him.

Spoiler: Violence be here.

Cole lunged at the nearest guard, digging his claws right through the bullet proof vests they were wearing. The five other guards started to open fire on him. A few shots grazed Cole before he used the guard he had has a human shield. When he heard a cease fire he lifted the guard above his head and tossed him at another guard, knocking him out. Cole looked around and grabbed the guard's assault rifle. Cole let out a bone chilling howl.

Episode 12 Hidden and Seeking ​

July 12 2013​

 

Morning
"Sir we have the package and are en route to drop off B." The guard driving the van with Russell in it said over a radio. They were a good ten miles away from the warehouse Cole was at. "Good, the arrow on the doorstep is in place." Fisher replied over the radio. "But sir, I thought Martian was to finish the Alpha? Doesn't that make the arrow useless?" The guard questioned. "You need a back up plan when dealing with this Alpha. Especially given his allies. Fisher out." Fisher said before signing off. Russell began to stir. "Hey! Where are you taking me!?" Russell shouted. The guards just ignored him.

 

Noon
The other guards tossed their weapons on the ground as soon as Eva and Angelina came in. Eva had her fangs out to be more intimating, so they could tell what she was, and they weren't even gonna risk Angelina, they weren't that high on the food chain to know all the movers and shakers. One of the guards looked around to see if Martian was coming to their rescue. He and The Golem was no where to be found.
Cole ignored what Angelina was saying and went straight for one of the guards. He slammed him against wall and held him up by his neck. "Tell me where Russell is, NOW!" Cole demanded. "I...I.....can't." The guard gasped for air. "Do.....do you know.....what Fisher would.....do to me?" The man began to struggle. "That your final answer?" Cole asked and then released him. The guard nodded yes as he rubbed his neck. "Your lost." Cole said in a cold voice. Then Cole pulled out his pocket knife and stabbed him in the chest. The guard struggled a bit before he went limp. Eva stood there in shock. She didn't think Cole had it in him.
Cole pulled the knife out of the guards chest and rubbed the blood off on his pants leg. He went over to the next guard. He took him by the neck and slammed him against the wall like he did the other. "Tell me, now." Cole ordered with his eyes flaring red. "A small station in the woods. That's where he was taken." The guard said in a terrified voice. Cole released him and looked towards the remaining guards. "Anything else to add?" The other three guards quickly shock their heads no. Cole quickly took the assault rifle he had and shot all three in the head. Cole turned to the remaining guard. "Thank you for your cooperation." Cole said and then he walked away from him. Eva couldn't do anything but watch. She was in complete shock, utterly speechless.
"Well that was brutal, cold, and heartless. I'm so proud of you pup." Martian said as he leaped down from the rafters. The Golem stood in their way to the exit. Martian walked over to the remaining guard. "Missed one. Don't worry I got it." Martian then snapped the guys neck like a twig. Cole got out his revolver and took aim at Martian. "I'm beginning to think you don't like me." Martian then looked over at Eva. "Vampires? Really? You must be taking help from anything you find under a rock huh?" Martian smirked. "Excuse me?!" Eva hissed. "Although I got to say, it does have some mighty fine packaging. But of course you always did have a thing for beauties haven't you? What was that one blonde girl's name.......you know the one that you turned then I ripped her throat in two? Mmm, she was a pretty thing. You know Angelina you remind me a lot of her. Ah memories." Cole's rage was boiling over. "Shut up!" Martian then glanced over and saw the knife Cole had in his hand. "Oh how cute you kept my knife. You sentimental skimp you." Martian said with a huge grin. "I kept it so I could drive it into your chest you Mutt!" Cole yelled. "Temper, temper pup, there are ladies present."

 

Noon
Martian took Angelina's shots in the stomach. He was surprised she shot him, it was little more then a bug bite but still. The bullets in his stomach dropped out one by one. He then began to laugh uncontrollably. "Nothing is off limits for me. I take what I want, like how I'm going to take Cole's still beating heart." Martian said in a sinister tone. Cole looked out a window, he still had awhile before nightfall. Cole took out his revolver and fired at him. Martian dodged them all with ease.
Martian marched over to Cole and grabbed him by the neck. Eva quickly took Martian's arm and broke it, she then tossed Martian a few feet away. She knew she was the only one that stood a chance against him. The Golem moved behind them. Cole took his assault rifle and emptied a clip into it. But the bullets just bounced off his near invincible skin. Cole charged at the Golem and swung the rifle at it. The rifle broke in half on it's arm. "I'm boned." Cole muttered.
Meanwhile Martian and Eva started their battle. It wasn't anything spectacular just a bunch of heavy punches exchanged between each other, and Eva was losing. Martian caught a punch from Eva and broke her arm. Martian then began to slash at her wildly. Cole tried to get to her but the Golem clotheslined him with those tree trunks it called arms. "Hold him! I want him to watch." Martian ordered. Martian stabbed his claws in the back of Eva's skull. He took one finger on his other hand and slit her throat. He then released her. She kneeled down and tried to keep some of the blood from spilling out to no avail. Martian gave her a good kick that rolled her on her back. He placed his hand above her heart and then slowly dug his claws toward it. She was too weak from blood lost to stop him. He finally stopped and quickly pulled his hand out. As soon as he did she turned to dust, he killed her. Martian took a deep breath, he wanted to saver the moment.
"It's been a long time coming pup." Martian said as he walked towards Cole. Before he could get to him Arthur crashed through the ceiling in his dragon form. "The hell?!" Martian shouted. Arthur slammed down his front leg on the Golem, pinning it down and releasing Cole. Arthur stared at Cole and Angelina, his eyes glowing yellow. 'Run! Now!' he telepathically said to them. Arthur swung his tail around sending Martian flying. Cole stared at Eva's ashes for a moment then he ran back to his SUV. He wanted to stay and fight but Arthur's words....that's all he could think about doing. The Golem was able do lift up Arthur's leg and get out from under him. Arthur took a huge breath in and fire formed around his mouth. The Golem quickly used it's body to shield Martian from the flames.

 

OOC: Yeah I just realized that today should have been the end of day. So let it be tomorrow.
Night
Cole was speeding away from the warehouse and towards the hanger. Eva was dead because he rushed in blindly. He had to get home and come up with a plan. If he would have waited for Arthur to come back then maybe....well it's best to keep moving forward.

Arthur kept the heat on Martian and The Golem until he was sure Cole and Angelina were far enough. He stopped the steady stream of fire and flu off. The Golem stood up, it's rocky skin was heated, it's shirt was burned off and it's pants as well. Although it didn't need pants because it's like a Ken doll down there, wearing cloths made it feel good. The Golem tried to help Martian up but Martian pushed him aside and got up himself. Martian was pissed to say the least. He was slamming his fist against walls and columns. He took out his cell phone and called Fisher. "Yeah he got away." Martian said with anger in his voice. "As expected." Fisher smirked. Martian snarled in the phone. "This was but one battle in a war. More will come." Fisher said before he hung up.

Cole didn't say a word until they were almost out of the city. "Are you ok?" Cole asked. "I'm.....sorry. This was my fault. I rushed in blindly and got Eva killed. We'll get to the hanger and I'll drop you off. That guard said Russ is being held in the forest, I'll start there." Cole said. He didn't want anyone else getting hurt because of his mistakes.
They neared the hanger and something was off. Cole stopped the SUV a few feet away from the hanger. Cole's ears flicked and he sniffed the air. His eyes widened when he realized what was happening. Cole quickly put the SUV in reverse and backed up. Then the hanger exploded. Cole's eyes turned red as he watched everything he had go up in smoke. "Fisher." Cole growled.

 

Episode 13 Domus Dulcis Domus ​

July 13 2013 ​

Morning
Cole approached the smoldering wreckage of what used to be his home. Most of it was still ablaze. Before he could shift through it to see if anything was salvageable a large snow white gust of air blasted from the clouds above the wreckage. The gust put out the flames and left a thin layer of frost on the wreckage. From the clouds that the gust came down came Arthur.
He shifted into human form and went over to Cole. Arthur gave Cole a huge right hook. "You stupid son of a *****!" Arthur yelled as he gave another right hook to Cole. "You should have waited for me you dumbass! Because of you Fisher has the upper hand!" Arthur continued to yell. "I had to! Fisher had Russell!" Cole yelled back. "Oh? Well where is he? Look around here, was the cost worth it?" Arthur asked. Sirens could be heard off in the distant. "Let's go before the authorities show up. I have a safehouse near by where we can plan our next move." Arthur ordered. Cole got in the back seat of the SUV and Arthur got in the drivers seat. He drove off towards the city.

 

Morning
Arthur made sure to avoid the cops by taking the back roads. He eventually got them into the city. Arthur took them out to the suburbs of the city. It was a relativity normal looking neighborhood. He pulled up to a large older looking two story house. Cole sniffed the air, he could smell something inside, he just couldn't tell what just yet. Arthur got out of the SUV and walked over to the door. He knocked twice then waited ten seconds and knocked two more times then the door opened. "Well come on in and meet the others."
Cole looked at Angelina. "Others?" He then got out of the vehicle and went inside. He now knew what that smell was. "So you got yourself some pets huh Arthur?" Cole said with a bit of smugness. There were three men inside. They all were about in their 20's, two were blond twins and the other one looked Spanish. "What the hell Arthur? Why go to the knock offs?" the Spanish guy asked, he was obviously the leader of the three. "Knock offs? Oh a skinwalker calling a Werewolf and a Shape-shifter knock offs is rich. Seriously Arthur why are the mutts here?" Cole replied. "Yeah, skinwalkers are what happens when a Werewolf and Shape-shifter 'Voltron' up. The senses and strength of werewolves, well when we're not shifted, and your guys shape-shifting abilities. But unlike you they can only turn into a animal, and only one animal per costumer." Cole explained to Angelina. The Spanish guy replied with a low bear like growl. "Meet Tenga, and the twins, Adler and Stier. These are the ones I've been telling you about boys."
"I don't like this. You should have told us about them." Cole said with a bit of annoyance. "You lost that right when you went behind my back to face Martian. Besides they haven't been in town for that long." Arthur replied. Cole growled at him. "Ok whatever. We need to find Russ and now." Cole demanded. "Who?" Tenga asked. "My pack member." Cole replied. Tenga laughed. "Some alpha you are. Can't even keep your people safe." Tenga smirked. "You want to go mutt? I'm happy to oblige!" Cole growled. Cole and Tenga then began to stare each other down. "Alright zip 'em up and put the rulers away! There's enough room for two Alphas." Arthur said as he got in the middle of the two.

"I had him! I had him!" Martian yelled as he sat down in Fisher's office. "Where the hell is that dragon expect at?! We can't handle that thing!" Martian continued to yell. "Right here my impatient pup." A raven haired British 40ish woman said as she entered. "Hello Elizabeth." Fisher said in a annoyed voice. "Hello Fisher. Keeping interesting company are we?" Elizabeth greeted. "Leave us. Now." Fisher ordered. Martian gave him a annoyed look and left. "Mm, you always have the best company." Elizabeth said after Martian left.
"I'm surprised you came. We didn't leave things on the most civil terms." Fisher said. "Yes well when the great Marcus Fisher has a favor to ask I just had to come. Now what is it you want?" Elizabeth asked. "Draconem is here, he goes by Arthur now. I need you to deal with him." Fisher answered. Elizabeth laughed until she realized he was serious, then she laughed even harder. "You've got to be kidding? Even if he wasn't an Elder he would be hard to kill, and since he is don't you know the back lash? The Elders don't take to kindly to killing one of there own." Elizabeth replied. "You've killed more dragons then anyone, you can handle him. And as for the back lash, I'll take care of it. You owe me, or should I tell your new husband about what you owe me, and your past life?" Fisher said with a grin. "He has nothing to do with this, he has no idea of what I've done and I plan to keep it that way. Fine I'll do it, but tell me this, is Gabriel still having you do your dirty work?" Elizabeth replied. Fisher didn't give her an answer. "That's what I thought. I'll handle it." She said as she left. "Thank you." Fisher said with a lot of smugness. Elizabeth glared back at him and then left.

 

Noon
"Alright enough talk. We need to find Russ. Every second we spend here Fisher is doing God knows what to him." Cole said while still staring Tenga down. "Agreed. The longer Fisher has him the better his leverage." Arthur replied. Cole glared at him with intense anger. "Do you even care about Russell?!" Cole yelled. "Care is irrelevant. Besides your a Werewolf, you can always make more." Tenga chimed in. Cole glared back at Tenga and gave him a huge right hook straight to his jaw. Tenga rubbed his chin and got all up in Cole's face. "Enough! Tenga go cool off." Arthur shouted as he separated the two. Tenga gave him a confused look and then went off outside. "Cole come with me. We have planning to do. Angelina make yourself comfortable." Arthur then gestured for Cole to follow him up stairs.
One of the twins went over to Angelina. "Traurig über unsere Alpha. Er ist wirklich ein guter Mann, wenn Sie ihn kennen lernen." He said. The other one was not too far behind. "Forgive my brother here. He doesn't speak English and tends to forget that most people here don't speak German. He said 'Sorry about our Alpha. He's really a good man when you get to know him.' I'm Adler and he's Stier, if you can't tell who is who." Adler explained. "I must admit I'm a little jealous of you. You can shift into any person you want. While we are limited to one animal." Adler went on. "Wie haben Sie viel zu meckern. Sie können fliegen!" Stier interrupted. He knew exactly what Adler was saying, they have a sort of mental link to each other. Very rare for a skinwalker who weren't Alphas. "My brother was just reminding me how I shouldn't complain about what I shift to. I shift to a Eagle. He's just jealous that he can't fly. He shifts into a Bull. So are you staying here like us? If you are we could show you around, if that's ok with you."

 

Night
"Trust me being a eagle isn't all it's cracked up to be. Especially when it's time to molt, very messy. And don't get me started on their digestive system, very, very gross." Adler replied to Angelina. "Alright let's get the nickel tour underway." Adler said with a big goofy smile. "This room is the living room of course. We have a flat screen TV, cable, and a couch. But you can see that. We have a fully stocked kitchen the next room over. Anything you want chances are we have it." Adler explained.
Stier looked as though he was about to say something before Adler interrupted him. "Yes, yes I'm getting to that little brother." Adler interrupted. "Po tol'ko pyat' minut!" Stier replied. "Yes five minutes you'll never have!" Adler said. He turned back to Angelina. "Um, sorry. He was just reminding me that I'm only five minutes older. We, uh...have a sort of telepathic link. That's how he knows what your saying. It's very hard to explain, I'll tell you about it later if you want." Adler said. Stier looked at Adler. "I'm sure she knows I meant we will explain. Your such a narcissist. Besides you can't speak English." Adler argued. He has a tendency to speak his replies when they have a telepathic argument, even if it defeats the purpose of having telepathic arguments.
"I'm not even going to dignify that." Adler replied to an insult that Stier gave him that he would rather not say in company. "Sorry. We tend to get carried away. Hope you don't think we're too insane. Anyways up stairs is the bedrooms. There are a lot of them. I think this place used to be a orphanage or something, Arthur kind of just put us in here when we arrived in the city." Adler continued. "Then we have the basement. It's our training room. We've got lifting weights, treadmills, a couple of punching bags, and a pretty large area for combat practice. Then we have a rather large back yard. If you want we can show you our abilities. His isn't really indoors friendly."
"That'll have to wait." Arthur said as he and Cole came down the steps. "We have a plan. Tenga get in here!" Arthur ordered. Tenga came in but not before he stomped on a cigarette. "We've found the outpost where Fisher has Russell. This will need stealth." Arthur explained. "And this plan is?" Tenga asked. "Unlike Mr. Jackson's plan before we don't go in guns blazing. We go in smart. Most of the people there will be regular humans, so Angelina shouldn't have a problem getting us in. And with Adler's shapeshifting abilities he'll go in with her and watch her back." Arthur continued. "After you get the door unlocked you two will scout ahead and find Russell. Once you find him, Adler will give us the location and we'll take it from there. Any questions?"

OOC: I just realized how much I've neglected the Commissioner.
"Look at this mess! What the hell happened?" The Commissioner said as he shifted through the wreckage of what used to be Cole's hanger. "Well this handy work is C-4. And a lot of it. Somebody wanted this place to be ash bad." A bomb disposer reported to the Commissioner. "Hey Commish! We found a basement. It.....looks like a sex dungeon." A police officer shouted. Commissioner Price patted the bomb disposal on the back and went over to the officer who shouted at him. He looked inside the basement. All that was left was the burnt chains on the walls.
"Who was the owner?" Commissioner Price asked. "The deed said a John Smith. But we questioned the guy who sold it and he folded like a cheap suit. A Cole Jackson is the owner." The officer replied. "I want everything we can get on Cole Jackson."
