[IC - LA] Preparing for War

A decade ago, a band of occult investigators battled against the summoning of an ancient and monstrous evil. They failed. Now you must piece together the puzzle and finish what they could not. The stakes are high, and so is the price to pay. Can you do it?

[IC - LA] Preparing for War

Post by Overlord87 »

After having abandoned the Sunset Hotel, you meet back at the Three Palms. Holly, Christopher and Clarence are the first to arrive. They sit in the hotel hall, waiting for the other two. Half an hour later, Ian enters from the main door, almost running, a grave expression on his face.

OOC:   Cam is outside, in the car, waiting for Ian to bring him clean clothes.

Christopher Fontana

Christopher looks up as he hears someone hurry across the lobby; almost spilling his coffee as he hurriedly puts his cup down. "Ian.. we're over here..." he says raising a hand beckoning the worried looking man over. "Where's Cam..." he trails off seeing the worried look on his fellow investigators face.

Holly also looks concerned. "He's all right, isn't he?" she asks. "If he's hurt, I can help him."

Ian Morin

Ian start talking nervously, recovering his breath. "Jesus Christ, thank God you're here. I messed up! Sometimes I can't control myself! I'm so sorry... I'm sorry."He takes a couple of deep breaths before continue. "Holly, please... Cam's outside, in the car! He's been shot! I'm so sorry! We followed the guy... He knew me... I... I... Cam warned me but..." He keeps talking without making any sense.

Without a word, Holly springs to her feet, grabs her medical bag, and runs out to the car.

Holly runs to the car, immediately noticing a broken car window. Cam is sitting at the driver's seat, searching inside a wallet. His shirt is blooded near the shoulder, but the wound already looks treated and bandaged. Holly can quickly confirm that the bullet went in and out cleanly, and Cam has skillfully applied the bandage. There seems to be nothing more she can do.

Meanwhile, Ian heads upstairs to fetch some clean clothes.

Cameron

"Thanks, Doctor" Cameron says gratefully. " I'm just lucky it wasn't a larger bullet. Once Ian gets back with some new clothes, I'll come up and tell you about it "

"You're welcome," says Holly, relieved that his wound isn't as bad as she had feared. "I think you'll be all right. The bullet was through and through, so it won't need to be extracted, Do you want me to stay with you until he gets back?"

“No thanks” smiles Cameron. “I’ll be up shortly to give a report. If you have anything to drink though, I could do with a shot. No pun intended.”

A few minutes pass, then five, then ten, fifteen, and still there's no trace of Ian coming back. Something doesn't feel right.

Cameron is getting impatient. It's hot and the car is beginning to reek of his blood. "Where the hell is he?"

Holly takes a small bottle out of her bag and hands it to Cameron. "I have some medicinal alcohol," she says, "and in your condition, you could probably use some. Just take an ounce and a half, it's fairly high proof. I'll go in and see what's keeping Ian." Holly heads back inside to find the others.

Christopher and Clarence are still standing in the hall, waiting for Ian to come back. They have no idea why he's taking so much.

"Cam will be okay," says Holly. "Where's Ian? Shouldn't he be back by now?"

"Ian should be back by now.." Christopher says frowning, I'll go and see what's keeping him." Christopher heads up to their rooms.

"We should all go," says Holly. "I have a feeling something's very wrong."

Holly, Christopher and Calrence run up to Cam's room, where Ian should be. And he is there, it's just... he's not searching for Cam's clothes. He seems to be doing nothing at all, actually. Sprawled over a bed, looking at the ceiling, slightly drooling and showing a dumb smile.

Ian Morin

As Ian hears the door opens he seems exceptionally glad, jumping out of bed. "Hello fellas! And hello Holly! I am SO happy you're here! How's Cam? Fine, right?" He says with a smile. He walks towards Holly, grabbing her by the waist and staring at her bosom. "I, on the other hand, could really use some help. Would you help me? Damn, you smell good. She does, right, handsome?" He seems to be talking with Clarence. "I could smell you all day! Gentleman, could you give us some privacy? Or you can stay. The more, the merrier." And start sniffing Holly's neck.
