The wraith was high - high enough to see over the walls Shad e shouted Pull him Away, pull him away, then the scream that filled us - all four had our protections up - that saved us - all of us mages wer able to continue - you were the only one to not be affected Four-Eyes, you were already in there, the others went cold, fear flowed out from the spirit, washed over everyone - the trolls were all pumped up but backed off..
Then it took control - the troll Chuck, then Shade, whispering from the blackness, promises and poisons.
This thing was too big - we should have died tonight - it took what it wanted - it was used to being obeyed, power through fear.. We engaged it in a battle of souls - to remove it's spiritual presence, it nearly erased Micro, nearly forced his soul from his body...
Why did it leave this chunk - it has to be important....
What happened when you killed it a week ago Four-Eyes...

Four-Eyes kept poking the altar "Well, 'dunno..I was concentrated to getting in without gettin' killed in one shot to worry about whatever what happening wiht you guys..Pull him away..hmm well that was obvious, hell that was we were here for! That doesn't make sense....a week ago? hum..did heard it order Fryer or John to kill the wolf, when I saw it it was already lying in a pool of blood" He lid a smoke and checked the inside of the cabin, like he was visualizing somrthing.."I think the altar was where it got killed..When I got in it was starting to bet hard- by that I mean becoming part of the physical world, having a meat body, even noticed steam coming out of his mouth like it was breating...maybe it got part in here somewhere.."
So whats with leaving this part of earth undug - is it the last bit of earth closest to its dying mortal coils,, what was the floor - tile, plaslay, I cant imagine thick rugs ...
the sunlight wiped it out too, Jon got a bio read sample, but the body disintegrated - that right? you said it was lying in a pool of blood on the floor, and you an the huntsmen poked an prodded it for a while , sunshine and the lot goes..
nice way of making sure you dont leave any evidence around..
"Yeah..but no I didn't played with it, I was busy talking wiht the Rangers who were clearing the mines around the buildings-claymore too, hot-notch mil stuff, and to say if it was in that body bag 5 minutes earlier we might have a body too. But since it can suck the life force of something living, there's no need to keep a body that got killed, the spirit will just get another host and that'll be it...well time to see what's under altar #1.." Four-Eyes tries to dig out a piece of the altar
More earth - nothing special as you take out a spade-tip - solid compacted earth, the sort of stuff that log cabins are built on...
Maybe youre missing out on thinking about what went on.. Point about a spirit like this is that it needs something to live in - something that represents its own status. If it was just spirit then it would just stay floating around - but this wanted a body - you killed the last one, so it brings Hunter who is in a critical condition anyway to the place where it died.. but what held it here. why did the spirit still have a hold?
((Damn..could be anything..revenge, greed, lust for power..an uncomplete or undone task..))

"Crap, nothing!..Dammit hell frag..ok ok ok...think now think...first, it send a elemental to snatch Hunter to ...STEAL HIS BODY!" Four-Eyes quickly looked at Meg, hoping she got the same flash as him "What if the wendigo wasn't taking Hunter's life force, but simply removing his soul and going IN his body? That means we're fraggin' pulled out The wendigo outta here! And it's going to Seattle by medivac! We gotta stop that from happening! If that thing gets to town God knows what will happen! and in a hospital of all palces the best place to get all the meta meat you'd like!"
Nah - We wiped it out, It is definately gone - Micro was banishing it too it is one of the things you learn when you del with spirits - you dont use banishing much coz you go toe to toe with the thing youre trying to get rid of - we severed it's connection, but we wouldnt have been able to if it had been in a body, so Hunter is safe, in a critical state, but safe. It has to do with this bit of earth - why did it come back to here - go through it in your mind - tell me what you saw last time..
"You sure?..'Course you sure, you're a Mage, and from what I've been told you ain't a newbie too...so why it's still hanging around? I mean when someone dies, the soul goes out fo the body and to Heaven or Hell or where ever else...expect if it had some task needed to be done , or suffered an unjustice or sometihng.." Four-Eyes thought about that for a minute or two..
((Say, in the pics we found in the ghouls' wallet, anyone reseembly the lady wnedigo?))
Or in the case of this thing it just goes - it no longer has a link to the world.... It should have gone when you killed itand it's body got sunlighted and destroyed, something had to be left to keep the link to the meat plane
Four-Eyes think hard, rememering how the room was- "There were guts and organsd all around, bones in a corner, washing bowl full of darken blood, some fat...Maybe it was some of her's? The bowl was turned over will all the comotion in the small room."
What would the overturned bowl have done?
"Dunno, it seemed it was full of blood-not to mention that John shot it a few times with his shotgun and bit it a few times with his fangs, God does he love doin' that....Hmm..there was 2 dead German shephards in one of the other buildings..and some woman wihtout her inside too, 'prolly where the organs where form, maybe the blood too...Butr as to what kept the spirit here, I don't have a clue"
((don't thin there's a way I can roll to remember huh?..Thougth so..))
So what happened to the blood from the bowl...
"Well it got kicked around and fell on the wood floor. It might have gone throught the cracks and on the dirt ground"
An if the sunshine destroys the corpse , the only thing left to keep it here is ..
You both look a lot closer at the dirt 'altar' a darker patch that looks like it has oozed through the floorboards an soaked into the earth...
"Hmmm.." Four-Eyes took out his folding knife and poke it a bit, before taking some on the blade to see it without having to be lying on the ground "So, 'think some blood can be why a spirit stay in the meat world like you said?"
Sticky, lump of earth, you dig some more out, beneath it is just ordinary dry earth, so whatever has seeped onto this patch is recent but mixed in with the soil on top- Wendigo blood? what was Illiya saying about a bio-sample....
"Exclusivity on it for one, she was also intrested in talking with John and taking some biosample off of him too, since he bit the thing, 'guess we could always take that back to them too, I can cross-analayse the sample I got with whatever's inside the dirt, i got access to my local clinic, I know who's sleepin, with the doc there."
This is vampire DNA what I've read on the matrix is it is supposed to be a throwback virus, if Jon is still walkin round in the sun then he is probably OK.. but I dont think I would like to bite into one...
Store and seal the stuff.. what you going to do with it... what they going to do with it?
"I don't know..I might keep a little, call it a souvenir, catch of war, whatever, I'll analyse it for one, then if it's related I'll give it to them- it might give us a bit mkore creds-maybe. As for them..meh I can't really say, weird experiments, maybe even breed one for themselves? Gos knows what, monsters and paracreatures are one thing, but to fight a freak, you gotta be freakier, I'm curious to know what their research facilities looks like.."
He checked his medkit, who was getting low on supplies, and took out a small plastic container from his belt, filling it up with the darken earth filled with vampiric DNA, closing the plas container and sealing it a bit more properly with ducktape, before sliding it back into it's belt section, sleek, unnoticable, and easy to get back home. "Well, I suppose we're done here. Thanks for the help Meg, I wouldn't been able to get it without you. I'll keep you infomred on what I found."

When Four Eyes brought up the mage he wanted to strangle him then and there but he let slide.
He's just a stupid mundane, let it go.
Shade looked over at Micro. "None, It's a hardware problem." Shade loved that joke. After watching FE and Meg leave Shade looked over to Quick "Hey Quicksilver, could I use your shower to clean up? I'm hoping Meg brings him back so I can hop a ride home. Since it sounds like our job is done."

"If anyone wants to ride back to Seattle wid' me," says Peaches, "jus' be prepared for a detour. I'm gonna swing by and see a fellah I know. He's a shaman around 'dese parts, and he might be able to shed some light on da Wendigo 'ting. Plus, I need to say howdy anyway."
((I figure Angel will want to ride along, and maybe Quick. Dunno who else would like to hitch a ride, but you're welcome to tag along. Wolf, if you would, please let me know when Peaches can do the deal.))
(OOC Wolflet say.. There are so many shamen here that your contact can easily be on his way or already here - save you a journey ! This is becoming a magic meet..

"Also I've been meaning to ask. How are we gonna divide the loot? I've been thinking I don't want to sell my share. Virgin minerals make great foci. I could melt some down and redo my blade. Would make making a weapon foci alot less taxing."
(OOC Wolflet say.. Meg has said she can make focii... do you have the alchemical know-how?

Peaches shrugs at Shade's comments. "Hell if I know. Just give me a few Gs and you can have my share."

((Going with the fact that Meg didn't have nothing left to do at the spot))
The flying tub came back, dropping Four-Eyes. Well, 'guess I'll have to pay a visit to mom at work...she's wokring..hmm a 24 in 3 days..'might even see the Doc...I wonder if they still got the same receptionist as last time. Since Shade didn't even bothered responding to him about the lady Mage, just looking like a rat crawled up his ass, he decided to try his luck with Angel, who from the 3, looked the less tired and burned "Hey Angel, how did the Mage hunt go? 'Gotten any luck?"
After her response, he went to sit down with the rest of the group, "So, who's gonna come to the meet next week? Everyone?"

Meg lands the tub easily, there is a cloud of mist around it - with beady eyes and a pair of puckered-up lips vaguely discernable in the mist - a traditional 'cloud'. She is still concentrating on the fly spell while Four-Eyes climbs out.. she pats a kilo plas-box - you wanna keep one of these ? By the way there were wolves a half mile out from the cabin after we killed off the spirit, they had been angry, they may have realised we had removed the spirit, could be why there were so many ellies around - wolf traps.
A clean Shade hurries up to grab a lift - so she compensated for his weight -he is travelling light, but there is something about Shade that doesnt go down well with Meg, she is a pacifist aftre all, an Shade seemed easily drawn to blast-first ask afterwards. but she couldnt fault his ideas or skill.
See you next week guys..
I got a big spirit under control and aspell to think about, so I may not be the brightest of companions on the trip back, she says as the tub wobbles skywards again.. tell you what, once were up and running you can tell me about your schooling - something I am very partial to, I'm looking to start up a ... a start up a teaching site in Seattle...
The view from the air is very pretty - the festival site is a colourful jewel in the black of the forest , she banks around to take a good look.
'be good if they could keep something like this going every year - they'd have to call it somthing catchy to make it more than just a one-off

(OOC Wolflet say ... We should be starting up a new thread soon, - just posted the intro - feel free to tie up anything you want to do at this festival and you can also make small talk in the Restauraunt, or be as embarrassed as everyone else with a low ettiquette or feeble conversation.
Be nice to know what you thought of how it is moving along too...
