Sweet revenge, The end of Rockwell

January 16, 2012 04:43

The night starts off with Gabriel rising at The Rack. Jeremiah was at a Edes de Ver vault, with James in the driver seat for the night. Red brutally, but methodically killed a mortal investigator while also framing it on his hunter co-worker. The plan was created by Christina, a reclusive and wrathful mage who pulled Red’s strings and instructed how best to kill the pesky investigator. The other hunters showed up decided to cut there loses and go after the werewolves at the old chapter house. What they didn’t know is that the cabal’s former residence, Zachary’s new territory, still had the Fire Ban spell in effect. They foolish went in even after the flash bangs were “duds” and were dumbstruck when their guns would not fire, leaving Zack and his two sons free to slaughter two of the hunters while the other two escaped. One hunter was instructed to go back and find the Cheron Books that were left behind and was able to avoid detection until he was leaving. Juan shifted into wolf form and bite his calf, being able to taste his blood. They tracked him to Wal-Mart where they cornered him in the back. Hyde (the hunters name and co-worker to Jekyll, the FBI agent, who died earlier) took his life by shooting himself in the head rather than be captured by them. Zack and his Offspring fled after the fact.

Meanwhile, when Jeremiah arose (as James) he was stumped on how to use voice mail and was helped by Lauralye. He then went out hunting. After which he stopped by The Rack to his nightly routine of socializing with the rest of the locals. With Issac in toe, he went to his house to gather information on the current events on what happened in St. Louis. Cali started the night shaping the rest of the holes in the walls of the house and then went off the the rack to hang out with her “friends”. Gabriel went hunting himself, and spent the beginning of the night on the town. Nikolia got out of night class and headed to The Rack, and then with the convincing of Alex, took Cali to Wal-Mart to buy Cali new clothes. They were held up because of gun fire outside, which Wal-Mart employees lock the front door and move everyone to the back of the store until police arrive. The gunfire coming from Hyde killing himself. When Issac got back from running around with Jeremiah (James), He was unpleasantly surprised by finding Rockwell in his VIP office. He then Teleported to his private office. Rockwell went out to block all the patrons from leaving screaming for either Issac or Gabriel. Jeremiah (James) watched while using obfuscate when Red (Sarah) slammed and proceeded to fight Rockwell with her cruel talons out. The two of the exchanged blows, but Sarah was losing ground, when suddenly, Issac rounds the corner to using a Vulgar Healing Heart healing Red of her most incredible injuries. Rockwell noticed this and turned to attack him, but was stopped cold when Jeremiah (James) skillfully impaled his skull with his sword-cane. Issac then used another vulgar spell, Psychic Sword, for massive damage. Immediately followed by Cali and Nikolai’s entrance. Cali used partial transformation for claws and started tearing in to Rockwell and Nikolai broke a chair for a makeshift club. Rockwell pulled himself out of the sword to jump though the ceiling, only to slam back down on the ground when that failed1. Cali then jumped up on Rockwell and savaged his head, With Issac using a vulgar Psychic Sword on him again, and taking backlash from his repeated abuse of reality. Finally, Tol’cal-on materialized, impaling Rockwell to the ground with his flaming bastard sword. Rockwell running on only fear tried to jump with the sword and Tol’cal-on’s strength holding him down, he only managed to push the blade in further. Sensing his foe’s supernatural regeneration and demonic drive to overcome, Tol’cal-on burned a large amount of essence and obliterated Rockwell’s body in a sea of molten steal and fire. The damage was incredible, blasting Jeremiah, Nikolia and Cali to the other wall and leaving a crater and a hole in the roof. All that was left was a brunt corpse encased in slag. Cali shaped the metal and remaining skull into a sword, but James’s(Jeremiah) skillful use of Dominate convinced her to give him the skull, which he took to Edes de Ver and presented the skull to a shocked Arpad. Where Gabriel finally re-arrived asking how the fight went, only to be shown a skull and James telling him that is all that remains of Rockwell.

And finally, Issac and Nikolia, relived that the monstrosity was killed, began repair the damage and pursue there own agenda.

1 In the previous mage game after the aftermath of a hunter assault the roof of The Rack was repaired and enhanced by Tiberius.

Keith, my mentioning of what happened ages ago didn’t upset you did it?
Or were you hoping to have Rockwell as a larger threat for a longer time?

no, it was bunched up and hard to read. I had to shorten it. The regards too Rockwell, at first I did, but then the concept of a “Invulnerable” antagonist was a bit offensive.

yeah, snacking on all those Nos, you would think he would eventually have packed up enough Nightmare to be spamming it like a Warlock spams Fear…
