Lillith laughed a bit at the idea of Isaac being called a boy. He looked like an adult to her, and as far as she could tell, he was an ancient supernatural like Vlad.

"The woman is a prisoner, mother of my Uncle's adopted daughter. The child is my Uncle's adopted daughter, but don't tell her she's adopted. That 'boy' is Isaac, who will hopefully become your boss, and not Ivan. He's Vlad's loyal subordinate, and is better than Ivan, in my point of view. He doesn't serve under Ivan, and he's not an asshole."

When Lillith was inside, she asked a servant if Vlad's business was done and where she could find him. The servant did not know, unfortunately. So Lillith simply headed off to where Vlad had last been seen.

Nixon was quite surprised by the sudden spear in his chest. When he found himself suddenly on the ground, all he could really say was, "OOOOWWW!" Nixon looked up at Mason and blinked behind him, folding his arms. "Really? We're back after an entire year and that's the welcome I get? Really I thought you people had some kind of courtesy, instead I get a freakin' chain in my chest for making an assumption! And come on, it might've been accurate! Or was it your boyfriend? You're not gay are you?" Completely forgetting what Mason did in the last minute to him, Nixon turned and looked over at Ryan. "And don't YOU dare pull a weapon on me, there was an evil mist guy who looked like he really wanted to bash your face and I did stop him...it...her?...no...him before it happened!" He waved at Kate who was still standing where he stabbed the false Anthony. "Don't worry, we led these people here. I don't THINK they'll kill you."

Perrin looked up from his notepad, hearing several people speak in the large cell. He set his pencil down, watching everyone around. He hoped there would be no fighting. All of them were weak enough as it were and fighting amongst themselves would just make them weaker to their torturers. Maybe they're just trying to spare each other the pain and misery this place gives, Perrin considered. The hunter shook his head, rejecting that thought. No one was fighting yet, but it was all he could speculate on for the time.

TheDoctor said
Anthony appeared out of the forest next to Zhalia, giving a slight wave. "Hi there, are you looking for someone?" Anthony pressed his hand on his chest and his form changed, morphing back into the trickster Hammond. "Well it may be me. Long story short I need some motivation for everyone else, and you seem to be a good candidate! Why don't we have a little trip together? Here, you don't even need to be awake for it!" Hammond opened up his sleeve and shot out sleeping gas. "You know this thing is very useful. And don't worry, your friends will come after you soon, of course after they deal with my illusions and we'll be long gone before then.

"The Manager looked away from his computer desk and smiled and Hebi came in and jumped on him. "Ah, there you are!" He exclaimed. The Manager's phone ringed but he ignored it, paying attention to his adopted daughter. His brother should be answering for him anyway. "How are you dear?" His work had increased dramatically after the event last year, but he still had lost most of his contacts. There had been no new shipments of humans and he was losing his guests. Fortunately, he still had a large amount of revenue and could keep himself and Hebi afloat for another two hundred years.

Zhalia cursed when she suddenly Anthony appeared beside her as she was trying to catch her breath. She backed away a bit, lifting her hands while he spoke to pull water out of the air and form it into an icy spike to pierce him with. Before she got the chance to fire the formed spike into his abdomen, the sleeping gas hit her like a ton of bricks. She coughed, the spike she created falling to the ground and shattering when she lost control over it.
Sleeping gas? The same sleeping gas from the hotel. Crap.., did the manager send this guy to get all the old guests back?
She didn't have time to think about it though, as the gas quickly entered her system and caused her to collapse, her vision fading and the world turning black around her.

---

Hebi giggled as she curled up on her father's lap for as much as she still could. She had grown so much in the last year, even though she didn't really realize it much, that she barely fit on her father's lap anymore.
'I'm good daddy.' she smiled brightly. Her father had been so busy with work lately that she barely had time to play with him. She took a lot of time to just wander through the hotel and the land surrounding it, so she wouldn't bother him too much when he seemed too busy.
'Daddy, its so empty here. I'm bored and the guards are boring and my toys are boring and everything's boring.' she exclaimed, rambling slightly. There were so little guests that Hebi had nobody to interact with. 'Can't we go outside again?' she asked with pleading eyes.

Ryan simply sat there in confusion, looking between Nixon and Mason. Wasn't Nixon friendly? Why was Mason attacking him? Was it because of the comment about the wolf? He looked at Nixon as he spoke, staying silent as he looked to Kate. Kill her? Why would he think we would kill her? Is she a supernatural or something...? "I'm not going to attack anyone until I know for sure they're an enemy right now..." He glanced to Mason, almost asking silently whether or not they were, despite thinking they were allies.

Kate- with Nixon, Ryan, and Mason

Argh....god, this headache.... . On the reminder of the way to the town through the uncharted grasslands, Nixon blabbed. Kate eventually toned him out, her eyes falling shut longer than they should have with every blink, a couple fingers rising to pinch the bridge of her nose on a particularly long blink. It was just her, the pain, and the ringing of her ears toning out even the sound of gunshots....directed at everyone. It was sunny, yet cold to her, with all of her movements and recognition of the chaos around her as numb as skin against ice. It was only when a warm drop of liquid touched her cheek, running down it like it had been raining did she come to and look up to the sky. Finally the voices around her crashed into her like a train, starting off with Nixon offended someone in the group of (2?) others that came to join and stabbed nixon. She didn't feel rain she didn't see, but the splattering of blood that flew from Nixon's stab wound. Her eyes traced over his chest, and to his face. In that split second, and horrified, she hopped she wasn't about to see a dead-Nixon.

Instead she saw a Clearly-not-dead-talking nixon, His stabber, Mason, and another quiet human. "Kill me? Well, that's.....kind of dumb." She said, amused with no one around her. She was even clearly irked by Ryan, who'd done nothing at all. She simply walked over to Nixon quickly, placing one hand on his shoulder and other other on the handle of the spear.

"On three! One, four...." She yanked the spear out of his chest. Without turning from Nixon and keeping a very frim grip on the weapon, she points it towards Mason's own chest. "I'm Kate, this is Nixon if you don't remember. It's a pleasure.....to me you....yeah you." She lowers the spear to her sides a gestures towards Ryan, just referring to him. "I seem to have missed out on all the excitement..." She mused, her annoyed tone and mood had fled much faster than someone's who'd just witness a stabbing scene. "The little that i caught is it was about some wolf-thing? Why not just get another?" She asks, glancing at Mason

kaori
(typing up hopefully tonight)

There was the sounds of stomping and a small crash followed by four foul words and then the sound of someone being tore apart. Before a young man with red hair walked out of the room, he stop to face Issac and Danni before he said "What is the Kitsune doing out her and not in a cell with her bloodwolf husband or have I missed something?"

Mike sat in his cell, honestly he was growing more and more bored by the second as he sat there. There were no guards around him anymore but at the same time if he tried to escape again, it would only punish those he calls friends. Mike sighed and played with his neckless.

Mason narrowed his eyes and retracted the spear weapon to its gauntlet where it belonged. "Yeah, a real act of kindness.." He said in a cold tone, sheathing his straight sword and holstering his pistol. Mason glared when Kate asked why he didn't just get a new wolf, he couldn't just do that, she had no idea how much Pain meant to him. "He was apart of my family, I can't just replace him." Mason said to the female in a tone that voice sadness and heartache. He kneeled momentarily and put his arms under the wolf, standing up and carrying him. "What is it that you two want?" He asked.

---

Axton gripped onto the brick he had firmly and turned in the direction to the voice calling out at him, he saw that someone else had answered the call. He could hear from this distance though, something was not right at all, the way she was talking was off. He walked over, slyly tucking the brick he had into his shirt sleeve so no one was the wiser. "Is there a problem here?" He asked the girl curiously.

---

Cassius skipped stones as he sat next to the river, he lied back, thinking about the times of when he was a hunter. He thought of his brothers and who he used to be to them, he wished he could go snag his outfit from the complex but maybe Vlad would have thought he was switching teams.

---

Aaron navigated through the hallways quietly, gasping in surprise when he felt a stinging sensation on his next. He drew his sword, his vision was wavy and he staggered, he was out like a like after another minute. He woke up inside of a cage, a big cage and there were more people inside of it. He locked eyes on Axton, he mentally facepalmed, he got himself trapped here too? There only hopes were now Mason and Cassius, wherever they were.

Therseod:
The werehyena didn't really think anymore, and after forcing his way past some more man-made obstacles, he finally made it to the origin of the smell. By now he was in a frenzy, as he came bursting out of the foliage looking for his prey. He had lost the weaker adult, but the child seemed ripe for the kill. It took him about half a second to lock onto it, and then he charged. There were several guards around the child, which made him hesitate for a split second, 'What was this kid doing with all these protectors' his personalities thought. The large hyena-like creature bowled over a few, and went straight for the youth. It's large jaws sharp enough to cut through thick hide and crush bone. One bite and it would be all over for the fox-like supernatural.

(Theo:)
Theo was mostly in control now, and his frenzied, aggressive ways of attacking would more than make up for his diminutive size. The werehyena wasn't the strongest of supernaturals out there anyways, so they tended to make up for it with attitude. "Here kitty, kitty, kitty" he taunted to his target. She had taken him on a long and rather boring chase through the woods, and he wasn't exactly thrilled about that. He could feel his mouth watering at the thought of the meal he would soon get.

Nixon made an urked expression as Kate pulled the spear out of him. "Ow..." The vampire gasped, holding onto his chest where the spear used to be embedded in him. After a couple moments, he let go and stood a bit straight, hiding his pain. While Kate and Mason spoke, Nixon tried his best not to smile. "Oh so you are...never mind...I get it it's a wolf! Uh, sorry, but really it's hard to tell the difference these days!" Nixon folded his arms. "Now on why we're here. Do you remember me at all? I know it's been a year but I did bring you guys here. Remember? At all? Anything? So, after looking in the forest for a year Kate and I found it. So, here we are! You guys the welcome party?"

---

Hammond grinned as Zhalia fell to the ground, putting his trigger back down his sleeve. He picked the siren up and hefted her over his shoulder. Judging that she came to the town, Hammond figured there should be the members coming soon as soon as they noticed her disappearance, but he should be long gone by then. Hammond began whistling "Drunken Sailor" and waved his arm, creating an image illusion behind them that should conceal them until someone walked through it.

---

The Manager sighed as Hebi asked to go outside again. "I know this place is getting bland but you know I've been trying to fix that," he explained. "My investors have mostly dropped and many of my contacts for human resources have been compromised. I can only assume the same man who made everyone disappear last year is responsible." He hated to make his daughter unhappy but the Manager had nothing to fill it. He worried about having her go outside, and he couldn't accompany her because of his work duties for trying to reconstruct everything.

---

Anthony sat up in the stream, breathing heavily. The hunter quickly looked around, not seeing any of his weapons, not even his sword. How long had it been? To him it had been three months of repeating the same day. "Time loops, Trickster..." He muttered. Anthony still couldn't remember how he even got out, but he never wanted to live that day again, and now he had about 100 times. The hunter looked around, not seeing anyone or even hearing anything other than the stream. Right, I need to find the town... he thought, getting up slowly and keeping watch. But, where is it?

Leotamer said
Dutch looked at his body thinking, "Now, how am I suppose to do that?" and then actually speaking allowed, "Fine. Can't you just shrink it or something and carry it in your pockets. It isn't like I can hide it, much less carry it." he then paused, and continued, "You know, sorry. I guess I have been in a bad mood today. I just feel antsy today. It has been almost exactly an entire year and it been reminding me of that hell-hole."

Zero looked at Dutch and sighed a bit at his bad mood. 'Fine, I'll do something, just relax.' he said. He looked at the deer and thought a bit, walking over to it before muttering some spells. He looked at him again when he spoke. 'I get it. It's been a while, hasn't it?' he said. 'I wonder how Edward is doing...' he mumbled to himself as the deer started to fade, hiding into the bushes.

Stryder said
Cassius skipped stones as he sat next to the river, he lied back, thinking about the times of when he was a hunter. He thought of his brothers and who he used to be to them, he wished he could go snag his outfit from the complex but maybe Vlad would have thought he was switching teams.

Mina slipped through the trees and held up a deer. 'Hey, I got us some food.' she said. After Cassius got her out of that cage she had recovered quite fast, certainly when he allowed her to drink his blood. Deer meat helped her recover as well.
She sat down next to him and tore off a piece of meat, munching on it.

He hated to make his daughter unhappy but the Manager had nothing to fill it. He worried about having her go outside, and he couldn't accompany her because of his work duties for trying to reconstruct everything.

'I know daddy.' she hugged him tightly, wrapping her arms around his waist. She sighed a bit and looked at him, pouting. 'Can I help you daddy?' she asked him sweetly.

Ryan frowned as he looked at the current scene that was unfolding before him. Mason's friend is dead, and he tried to kill the one who brought everyone to the village... He let his frown dissipate as Kate began speaking to him. "A pleasure to meet you as well." Did she say 'me you?' "Thanks for saving me from that guy..." He glanced to Nixon as he said this. He dropped the arrow he had been ready to use as a weapon and hung the bow from himself.

Isaac didn't make a sound as Delilah's claws tore his pants some and scratches his leg. He was just a few meters from the main doors when Delilah returned with five guards, it would have to do. Then one of them, the highest ranking of the group ordered one of then with a few curses to get Danni from him, "Yes, to the infirmary. And station guards at the entrances to the room." Once the guard was gone with Danni, he walked over next to Delilah and turned towards the woman, "Set up four man patrols and two man lookouts both on the grounds and just outside of it, we may have an uninvited guest coming so-"

He was interrupted by a creature's appearance, how it got past the gate and walls, he would have to find out later. The guards still there had barely turned around when it knock them aside, only the female guard managing to get out of the way. Useless humans... Isaac crouched down and summoned a wall of earth two feet thick and four feet high, causing the creature to slam into it. If it broke, Isaac was crouched so he could immediately cut it with his sword. "Behind me, little one." He had used his powers without Vlad's permission, but this circumstance was an exception.

Dutch sighed, and just laid down while he waited for Zero to do whatever Zero's planned to do. Dispute being around Zero for a long time, he really could only recognize a few spells the spell-slinger could even do so, and one of them was the food spell. "Hmph, calm down, must be easy for the one of us who got turn-backed on this day a year ago." he muttered to himself slightly to loud so that Zero could plainly hear him.

Kaori
As Kain’s voice carried to Daniel and Her about what she was about to do, she looked at him without emotion, although he could tell his words had sunk in with the slight nod she gave him. She had always taken heed of what he preached…or tried to, always keeping away from the lines that would be crossed to declare her monster. However, Daniel didn’t have as much luck as a vampire. He wasn’t human, nor wouldn’t act like one all the time. He was never in a dire need for human blood, but now he was standing on the edge. Kaori’s eyes fell to her hands, over the speckles of dirt that would cover it, despite the other two approaching. Kain would want for her to always pitch in for Daniel. In a way, his messages were now conflicting. Possibly loose a life to save a life. Or lose a life without ever knowing if you could have saved them in the first place. She knew what she had to do.
Ignoring Pytror for the moment, her head flipped towards Axton, obviously carrying something in his sleeve. And then Pyotr, with both of his hands behind his back. Great job, drew too much attention…. The last thing I want to be is vulnerable. Her eyes skimmed over the surroundings of the courtyard. Various pieces of rocks laid here, and nothing that could cause some deathly damage. She rose from Daniel, coughing a few times before she was fully upright, and took a step away from him. Kaori could no longer maintain that delightful smile and voice; her tensed jaw muscles and bitter glare displayed a silent-type of annoyed. Her arms crossed over her abdomen, hugging the clothes that stuck to her side. Picking up was weapon would be too visible. Having her arms like this made her seem nervous and more innocent. Instead, this was a pretty good position to back-hand someone.

“You, the one with the rock in his sleeve, there is a problem.” She tilted her head, sighing quietly with the nonchalant words leaving her lips, with her eyes locked on pytor who seemed to be more aggressive. She kept an eye on Axton out of the corner of her eyes, continuing. “It’s you. At least hide your weapon better, like he is behind his back.” When being one of the first to leave a place like the hotel, you quickly learn how to hold on your life better, to every detail. She cleared her throat, speaking to Pyotr next. “Can you find my friend’s heart rate? Can you help him?” She asked, gesturing towards Daniel who was too weak to do much moving. He had yet to open his eyes and could only speak through thoughts, but surely in his life-or-death mode, his body would reach out for a blood source. Ultimately, she left this choice up to Daniel for now. “I……think he’s dead!” She blurted out, like she was gasping for air, wearing this ‘emotional act’ like a costume on the outside. Whether it would stay or change depended on how this went. “Help us, please….” She blinked, sending a thought towards Daniel. All it takes is one bite…. And a couple of steps closer from him.

Vivian headed to the Hunter's base as she had heard rumors and seen that Anthony was supposidly attacking the town but she had missed the excitement. Something felt off to her as she stopped looking at the sign. She also knew the Manager's hotel was still around so maybe much to her dismay she would pay a visit to the man and probably ask if he had any clues to where everyone went. That is after she prepared more so she began to stock up on supplies.

Eline was deeply troubled by the news Anthony had suddenly went on a rampage. However the werecat knew that could not be her Anthony sience in all the months and year she knew him he would never do something so drastic unless he had somehow snapped. Thinking about things she stood and bidding all the other Hunters farewell she began to leave deciding to look for Anthony once more.

Nixon gave two thumbs up to the boy who was thanking him. "A real pleasure to test out my blade! Honestly, I was hoping that it wasn't going to go through my hand, let along go through Anthony!" He admitted. "So anyway we explained who we are, now you two explain where the rest of the group is, who are you, and why there are clones of Anthony shooting people. Any order works I guess, although maybe explaining who you are is probably the best way to start off."

---

The Manager looked down at Hebi and gave a small sigh. "I wish you could but this is turning into all business now dear," he explained to her. He wished Zayne were still there, she'd be a good teacher, but without her and no humans to test her abilities on, Hebi couldn't develop her skills. The Manager thought for a moment, developing an idea, but after several moments he rejected it. No, he didn't want to send Hebi out alone, now with the new threat she could go missing right when she stepped out of the bounds of the hotel. The Manager wished he could do something for his daughter. Perhaps going to the town would be ideal.

---

Anthony felt almost naked as he walked into the dense forest without any weapons or tools. His two choices were to either stay by the stream and hope that someone would find him or find his own way back. Being stuck in that time loop had made him lose his perception of time and he had no idea if someone was looking for him or not. Shouting in the forest seemed like a one-way ticket to death too so there was no use for that. Anthony wished he at least had his backpack but everything was missing when he woke up, even the ammo he had used. Anthony heard himself step on a branch accidentally. The hunter looked around, hoping that nothing heard the noise. Anthony gave a soft breath of relief and continued through the forest. He hoped he would get back to the town soon and find Eline and the others there safe, he was worried about the Trickster.

Kain sighed quietly after observing Kaori. Once she made her decision he merely made sure he was in a position to step in if it got ugly, sending a internal message to Daniel while the vampire had a clear mind. She is going to get you someone to bite... Don't go overboard with it Daniel. I reallydon't want to break your teeth. A chuckle followed what the Lycan was thinking, but with his condition he was worried he would resolve to that action.

Goliath:
The great bear heard a snap of a branch, interrupting his drink from the stream. He immediately looked towards the sound, not fully aware of what was coming yet. The wind was keeping the scent from reaching him, so he couldn't identify it until it came into direct sight. He stood up, his large bear head scanning through the trees. His goal was to make himself as big as possible, hoping that whatever saw him would turn tail and run. He wondered for a second if it was one of those hunter people he had met earlier, however dismissed it. They probably have moved on by now, which meant this forest was pretty much his now. Judging by the sounds of the creature approaching, it was probably something similar to a human, at least in weight and size, is what he figured. As it got closer, he let out a low growl, hopefully alerting the trespasser to his presence.

Therseod:
The werehyena saw the dirt wall, although it was too late to stop. He slammed head on right into it, a sickening thud radiating out from the impact. The wall crumbled and fell around the beast, a few large rocks hitting his head. He lifted himself out of the rubble and changed back into a human form. That's when he finally got clear on who the guardians of the child were. "Oh, shit" Theo said, as he recognized the man who summoned the wall. That was Issac, pretty much his boss.

Delilah/ Soilders/ Nurses (For lexi, Kang, Spike, MT)

(5 guards, 1 “general”, 4 others she controls)
The army-like Sargent guard smiled as her subordinates darted into action, focusing heavily on the three whom jolted to siege the werehyena alive at the sound of her booming voice. One of them retrieved Danni from Issac’s arms, ignoring the inquiry of the man with the red hair questioning the whereabouts of the kitsune. He sprinted towards the castle with the kitsune to the infirmary like it depended on his life, stumbling a couple times over pebbles without fully collapsing.

The black haired female guard turned to the red haired male who was a new worker of vlad, saluting while she blinked at his in disbelief that conveyed the emotion of ‘are you seriously asking this at a time of alarm?’, pinching her lips down into a scowl. “It appears as if there is a disturbance among the manor, along with the kitsune's health becoming controversial. We are not concerned of her location right now, rather the safety of everyone. I also must note that everyone is placed accordingly to their positions desired by the authority in this castle, and do not recommend you disrupt that order, or else you may be facing the consequences. Goodday.” She bowed her head after giving him a mini-speech, watching the werehyena (hopefully) being subdued. The three lower guards didn’t hesitate upon the wall collapsing onto the hyena, one of them shooting a gun that would deploy a trapping net, wrapping therseod in tangles if successful. The other two ran around the shooter’s range, one of them attempting to hit the werehyena on the back of his head with a baton, and the other spraying pepper spray, aiming for the eyes of the werehyena’s human form. The black haired female smiled upon this work, barking out orders of advice and wanting him alive as Delilah moved behind issac due to his powers, silently slipping away after her mother and the guard’s path to the infirmary.
~~~~~
The infirmary

The soldier silently set Danni on one of the beds in the overly-white, sunlit room, dismissing himself to notify a nurse. During the short wait, Delilah came up next to her mother’s bed, standing on her tippy toes to see her mother still deep in pain, her wails filling the room. She only had enough time just to see a glimpse of her mother’s normally curly hair caked to the side of her faces with sweat mixed with tears before she felt a strong tug on her arm by one of the nurses who entered, dragging her out of the room. Her shoes had no traction against the white tiles- no matter how hard she pulled back towards her mothers, watching in horror through her soft murmurs of “mom, my mom. I-is she going to die?”

Without the nurses knowing what exactly what was wrong besides extreme pain, they quickly sedated her to just barely awake with an IV the places in her arm, along with injecting some morphine, the cloud of nurses blocking the young kitsune’s vision of her mother; her beloved.

Daniel, although in and out of consciousness, could make out what was going on. He heard Kaori's words, and blocked out Kain's. He could hear the person stepping closer and closer, but couldn't make out exactly who it was. For all he knew, the male (which he was able to make out due to the sound of his voice) could have been someone's friend, brother, cousin, son, even boyfriend. Who was he to take his life away for some blood? He was going to prove his dream wrong. He was no monster. The vampire, with his eyes closed, turned towards the figure and sent his thought to only him. To anyone viewing, except the approaching figure, it would look like he was patiently awaiting his gift.
Hey you, walking towards me. Don't come any closer. What she has planned for you is no good. I'm a vampire, desperately in need of blood, and she is going to try and get you over here so that I can get some. But I am no animal. Just turn around, like you changed your mind, and get the Hell away. Please. Listen to me.
