Kyle had been wondering the streets of London for hours. Luckily it wasn't late enough in the year for it to get too cold, but the fog that permeated the streets made it a bit dreary. The email he had gotten from the Prophet's Taskmaster had mentioned a heretical order in the city, but they had little information about it. It had ordered him, and several other Acolytes judging by the address bar on the message, to England to locate and study the order of Fae worshipers and inform the Prophets about them so that they could guarantee minimal casualties when eliminating the Fae group.

Without more information to go on Kyle had no choice but to search the city for some trace of the group. After two and a half hours of wondering he sensed something from a restaurant and went inside. There he grabbed a booth and looked around for the source of the feeling. When he saw the waitress near the kitchen, he knew he had located it. Fae energy came off of her in waves. She must be a member of the group, having recently used Fae magic. he assumed. He pulled out his phone and quickly emailed the other members of the order that were sent on the mission, telling them he had found a lead and sending them the address.

"What can I get you?" the waitress asked in an Irish accent when she got to his table.

"I'll have friends joining me soon, but I guess that since I'm in London I've got to order Fish n' Chips at least once, so how about that."

"You've got it." she said. After he finished his order she took it back to the kitchen and returned with a basket of fish and fries, along with a large soda. "Here's your food." she said, then pointed to his necklace. "So you're into the runes?"

"Yeah," he said, hoping to draw her in. "I've studied them a bit."

"So is it just for luck, or what?" she asked.

"Well, It was my mom's actually." He said, making up a cover story on the fly. "She was from a family of psychics. I got it when she died. My aunt told me that it would amplify my psychic powers, and I guess it's working because I just knew I needed to come in here."

She smiled. "Maybe you are psychic, then. I've got to get back to the kitchen, but I'll be back whenever your friends get here."

"Sure" Kyle said, knowing she wanted to hear more about him. "Maybe we can talk later." She nodded and walked off.

Candace felt the telltale buzz of her phone in her pocket. The security set up on it meant that the buzz was almost certainly from a member of the Order, so she reached into her jacket and pulled out her phone, leaning against the wall of a building to keep out of the way of passersby as she checked the message. Apparently one of the other acolytes had found a lead, and the restaurant was only about ten minutes walk away, so she took off at a brisk walking pace, at the same time returning her phone to her pocket and sticking her gloved hands in her pockets. She casually ignored a wolf whistle from behind her, though whether it was directed at her or not she wasn't sure and didn't particularly care. Either way it took almost exactly the amount of time she figured to reach the location sent by the other acolyte, pushing the door open and stepping inside with a few glances to take in her surroundings. It wasn't hard to spot the other acolyte in the room, even if the restaurant had been full, which it certainly wasn't. She quietly strode over to him and sat down in the chair across from him, elbows on the table with her hands tented under her chin. She spoke in a low voice, enough above a whisper as to not be suspicious, but quiet enough that it wasn't likely anyone would hear them. The demons bound to her begrudgingly informed her of the fae energy emanating from the waitress moving between tables.

"Just the one?" She asked, looking at Kyle.

Jackson was currently in the middle of street fight not far from the location, having the time of his life. He was holding back, so as to keep it interesting, and the guy he was facing could tell and was getting pissed off by it. Jackson's kicking of his ass with only a few hits landed on his person wasn't helping. Jackson was about to finish up the fight when he got the text, feeling the familiar buzz in his pocket. Pulling up his smartphone, he quickly checked his email, groaning when he saw the message. Duty called, unfortunately, whenever he was having fun. He put his phone back, and turned to his opponent, who had been kind enough to wait.

"Sorry about this, but I have to jet. So why don't we reschedule, oka-" Before he could finish his sentence, his opponent struck at him with a wild haymaker, which he dodged easily. He looked at the man with unrestrained anger, then struck at him with a fully unrestrained punch, knocking the punk out in one hit.

He left the man unconscious in the alley, heading towards the restaurant where the other acolytes were to gather. Entering, his eyes immediately landing on the beautiful waitress, who was currently going between tables, taking orders, looking damn good doing it. . .

And reeking of Fae energy, don't forget that.

Jackson sighed as Aphosis spoje up in his head, but the spirit was right, the girl was probably why he had been called here in the first place, what a waste. He quickly crossed over to the table where the other two were, giving both a once over, before giving them a mischievous smile, or to be specific, the beautiful woman sitting next to the scrawny looking kid.

"Hello, my name's Jackson Devani, and I must say that it is a pleasure to meet you. Both" He said, quickly adding the last part as he sat down at their table.

Aaron sat in The Terminal of Louis Armstrong National Airport. He was sitting at some bar, next to a College student and his buddies who were laughing loudly and cracking Dirty Jokes directed at Aaron and the terrified girl who was the bartender. They were very obviously drunk, and reeked of Fae, or was the alcohol? Aaron couldn't tell. He took a sip of his Cherry Coke, and he pulled out his Visa Black Card. He turned to the bartender.
"Please just put it on this card." He said pulling up his Duster. The woman looked startled at seeing the Visa Black Card.
"It will be free for you sir." She said stuttering.
Aaron stood up off of his stool and started walking to security. His angel who had been bound to him by friendship whispered in his head
"Don't you dare just pass them by, Otherwise they could kill you."
"Yeah right, as if a bunch of drunk punks could kill me, a trained CIA agent." I retorted. That's when I felt it, I was being dragged.
"Let's go Pro-feet! I want to kill you!" Aaron winced, it was that college kid. Dragging him in an open airport, how did he think that was gonna fly with the TSA? ((Pun not intended xD))
Aaron started screaming "He as a bomb! He has a bomb! He's also kidnapping me!" which made some people look at him, and made the TSA come running. Aaron ran to his gate and got onto the Flight to Heathrow. not looking behind him.The rest of the flight was uneventful.

London.
Aaron's phone buzzed at the rental car place. It was a text from the order. he triangulated the signal, Got into the Rolls Royce the CIA had gotten for him, and followed the signal to a small Fish 'n Chips shop aptly named Fish 'n Ships. He stepped inside to find three other members. He straightened his duster Jacket and sat at their table.
"hey guys, how goes it? My name is Aaron White. " He said. "Waitress? Can I get some food?" His eyes turned from the waitress, to the three kids who tried to beat him up in New Orleans Entering the restaurant. "Crap!" He muttered.

Kyle looked up as another woman from the Order, judging by the energy she was putting off, walked in and sat down across from him. *"Just the one?" She asked, looking at Kyle.* "For now.", he said. "I've talked to her, and she seems friendly enough that I may be able to get her to tell me about her cult. Of course, I'm not supposed to know she's in one, so that may be tricky. Fries?" He slid his half-empty basket towards her. Just then another man walked over and sat down, *"Hello, my name's Jackson Devani, and I must say that it is a pleasure to meet you. Both"* Kyle of course saw through his thinly veiled attempt at flirting with the new woman, but ignored it. "I was just telling her that I'm trying to get the waitress to tell me about her group. I think we may be able to convince her we're just a group of American friends who are into magic. Maybe a Coven, if you want to play it that way." Yet another member of the Order walked into the building and sat down at their table. *"hey guys, how goes it? My name is Aaron White. " He said. "Waitress? Can I get some food?"* As he finished speaking three more people entered, these three also having the distinct felling of Fae energy around them, though nowhere near as strong as that surrounding the Waitress. *"Crap!"* "Seems you managed to find a lead as well. I was hoping we could convince them that we were just a group of Americans interested in magic or a small-time coven, but this might complicate things a bit. Judging by their body language, they've already met you and don't like you too much. I'm Kyle Sanders by the way." He put his hand out for anyone who wanted to shake it.

Jackson looked over at the group that walked in, and he had to say thathe was not impressed. "Hello Aaron, my name is Jackson Devani. Now please tell me your not really worried about those three suckers that just walked in, they look like they'd fall over if ya breathed on them wrong." Jackson then turned to face the younger kid, giving him a good handshake. "It's nice to meet you Kyle, now tell me how ya want do this in case the three stooges over there decide to make a scene with our buddy Aaron. My suggestion is that you let me kick their collective asses, but I have a feeling that's not how the rest of you roll. If they don't mess with us, then we go with your original plan." Jackson honestly didn't care, because he knew they were in for a fight either way. He just hoped that smokin' waitress would at least put up a somewhat decent fight, otherwise this would be a rather boring mission.

Aaron turned to Kyle. "Nice to meet you!" he said He then turned to Jackson. "I had a small um, Altercation with them in New Orleans. They grabbed me and started dragging me through the airport. I was able to convince the TSA that they were terrorists." Aaron shrugged. "Still I don't know how they got here at the same time as me, considering they were detained for two hours. Then again I was in a layover." "Here's your fish and Chips sir!" The waitress said in a chipper voice. "Thanks" Aaron replied dumping a lot of Ketchup onto his plate and dipping the fries into the Mt Ketchup he had made. He smelt what he had smelled at the airport. Booze? Why would the Waitress be drunk? No, it was Fae. Why did Aaron get those confused? He shrugged and stuffed the Fries into his mouth.

Candace had been primarily silent throughout the whole scene at the bar, simply listening and occasionally eating one of the fries that Kyle had offered her. She'd barely even bothered looking around, letting her demons tell her what was occurring behind her as the group of rowdy Fae cultists entered the establishment. "If they become a problem, try to leave one of them alive. I doubt it will be too difficult to convince them to tell us what we want to know once their companions have been dispatched." She stated in a deadpan voice. It was hard to tell by her voice and expression how serious she was being.

Jackson's constant smirk widened into a predatory grin at the woman's comment. His eye were unconciously flickering between their normal golden hazel coloring and a haunting scarlet red. "Aphosis and I will have all 3 of them singing like canaries in no time, fear is our specialty and breaking down minds our favorite hobby. Besides, I only kill two types of people, those who get in my way and those who give me a good fight. But nevermind that for know, for we have to cover a more important topic." Jackson pointed at her with a slightly dramatic flair. "You have had yet to introduce yourself, and have been the only one here not to do so. If we are to be a team, I need to be able to call you something other than 'that woman over there'."

Now that Jackson was talking about something she had interest in, she finally looked him over more carefully, her face a blank slate contrasting his visage of constant amusement. She tended to judge people harshly, but she guessed that based on the fact that all of them were considered amateurs of the order his boasting was just that, and so she responded as such. "So you're an amateur who thinks he's a master. Understood. Either way, we only need one. The waitress seems best suited." She stated casually, just quiet enough that the Fae cultists wouldn't be able to hear her. "And you can call me Vance. Maybe later I'll tell you my first name." She stated dismissively as she stood up and turned to the group of three rowdy cultists, looking at the one that looked least willful, though she highly doubted any of them could resist her magic. Her eyes flashed for a second as she used her demons to cast a Domination spell, telling them to inform her if it failed. When she got no response she knew that the rowdy idiot was under her control and spoke up. "You. Break your friends neck." She ordered, knowing that even if the other two registered her words they wouldn't expect their friend to suddenly grab one of the other two's head and snap it to the side with a sickening crack.

Aaron stood up. "This is basically Cold blooded murder, Vance! We need to wait until the Civvies are out of the way!" Aaron put hid hand on his dagger inside of his duster. He really wanted to just shout "Sic Semper Tyrannus! and go the John Wilkes Booth way killing the waitress, but morality prevented him from doing it. Aaron had a plan. He drew his CIA badge. "Alright! Everybody out! This is a CIA operation! Some people in here are suspected terrorists! You, stay here!" he pointed to the waitress. The angel spoke in his head. "Smooth, Tell everyone you're a CIA Agent, Genius plan!" He could hear it slow clapping. "Just shut up, I got this under control." Aaron sat back down and ate some more fries.

Jackson chuckled at Vance's comment, shaking his head as the restuarant erupted into chaos. "That's where your wrong Vance, I don't think myself a master of fear, just a conduit for a spirit of fear, madness, shadows, and primal predatory power." Seeing no need to hide anything anymore, he summoned his blade from the shadows of his sleeve, twirling it around for a bit, his eye glowing a deep scarlet red. "Also, I like the way you handle things Vance, I think I may be in love." He stalked over to the waitress, ready to strike the second she tried anything. Taking a secpnd to look her overr for a second, he sighed again, cursing the fates for being so cruel. "Gods, what waste to have to fight such a beautiful woman, but alas it my job. I suggest you come kicking abd screaming, as it's a helluva lot more fun that way."

Jihord He had been around the general vicinity once he received the Email from his fellow acolyte, and quickly left the pub he was at. As he neared the pub, he grunted unhappily to himself and flicked away his cigarette, seeing civilians run from a target location tended to be a bad sign. He knew tensions would raise as he stepped into the building. A 6'4 man with a beard, busting into a hostile situation never went too well. He stepped into the building, ducking a bit to avoid the door-frame. Just as he enters, he hears Jackson's statement to the waitress. "Step Away from her." He growled softly, unhooking the strap over his sword.

Kyle was about to respond to the conversation, saying that this was supposed to be an observation mission, not an attack on the cult, and that he thought stealth was the best option, when things started to fall apart. First, the woman, going by Vance apparently, took control of one of the cultist's mind, then made him murder his friend. Then Aaron started yelling something about terrorists and the CIA (he did realize this was England, not the US, right?), which scared the few patrons left in the place out of there. That apparently meant that all semblance of stealth was over, as Jackson pulled out his knife and went towards the waitress. Then a giant man entered, drawing his sword and making demands. "Have none of you every heard of stealth?" He asked the others aloud. "First," He looked at Vance, "murder. Really? Hope we didn't need to interrogate him, and mind control would come in handy if we needed to do that. Second," he looked at Aaron, "if you're going to pretend to be a special agent hunting terrorists, don't immediately go back to eating your french fries. That's a dead give away that you aren't serious." He looked at Jackson. "and you, could you be any more creepy? Bad cop only works if you have a good cop to play it off of." He facepalmed. "I'm the youngest one here, but apparently I'm the only one that knows what they're doing." The waitress took advantage of the ruckus he caused to try and escape. "Sayori!" she yelled as she ducked whatever reflex attack the man coming for her might make, and a 2 meter tall elf man appeared in front of her, holding a bow. "I won't let you hurt my child." it said, drawing the weapon and aiming it at the closest enemy. The Waitress started to run, but Kyle reflexively summoned his tormentor Imp. "Catch her. Minimum injury." he said to the two foot tall creature. Despite its small size it was faster than him and more agile. Just as he was about to start after her he realized what the elf said. *The girl is human, not an elf. He couldn't mean her.* he thought, then realized something. The Fae energy didn't come from her, it came from inside her. "The Waitress is pregnant with the Elf's child." He told the others. From his studies he knew that it was possible for spirits to reproduce with humans, the most popular cases being the Nephilim and the ancient demigods, but that it required an extremely strong summon or a tear between dimensions that lets them come through completely. Because of the efforts of the the Order, however, they were extremely rare in modern times. "I'll catch her." Kyle said, as he chased after her.

Jihord As Kyle took chase he followed closely after, putting a bluetooth in his ear as he ran, Dialing the young Acolyte's Phone. "Young Paladin." He grunted into the receiver, his thick Norwegian accent apparent in the call. "This is Fae Folk, An Irish Selkie by the appearance, a member of the Seelie Court. Are there any large bodies of water nearby?"

Jackson ignored big guy who had just walked in, turning to Kyle. "Who the fuck said I was trying to play bad cop. And also, Aaron, get the hell off your ass and stop stufging fries in your face. Come in man, can't you be a least the slightest bit professional in all this." As he spoke he took a cautionary swipe at the girl as she ran passed him, clicking his tongue as he barely missed her. Then came the Elf which, coupled with Kyle announcement, made this mission much more interesting. Seeing as he was now going to have to get serious, Jackson activated his mark, as well as casting Hunter's Grace on himself. His blade switched into a katana, which he held in one hand as he faced off against the elf. "Before we get into it, I'd like to apologize for ogling your lady friend there as I thought she was single, oh, and congratulations on becoming a father." As soon as he finished talking, he threw down a Shadow Bomb, enveloping the area surrounding him and the elf in darkness. Using the amulet, he concealed his prescence in the shadows, quickly circling around the elf to land a decapitating strike.

Kyle answered his phone, panting into it as he ran. "Well, there is the River Thame *pant* but if it's a Selkie *pant* from the legends I've read *pant* she has dominion over it *pant* as long as she has a piece of it. *Heavy breathing* I'd say its child *pant* qualifies, which is probably why *pant* she could call it to her like that. He stopped in the alley behind the row of shops the restaurant was a part of when, several blocks from it, when he saw the Imp standing on the Waitress's chest. She was laying on her back with a broken beer bottle held to her throat, covered in beer with shattered bottles around the area. Though he hadn't been there to see it, he could guess that the Imp had thrown them at her to make her stumble, and judging by the knot on her head he had tried to knock her out as well. Kyle threw some zipties to the demon. "Bind her hands." he said, then addressed the man on the phone. "I've got the girl. I'll bring her back inside. We're going to need to contact the Order about recent developments, though. They'll want to know if someone is producing half-breeds." "Get up, and go back to the restaurant", he told the girl, and they started the walk back, the demon sitting on her shoulders to make sure she didn't try anything.

Aaron stood up and looked at the person who told him to get up. "You try having to drive here immediately after an international flight from New Orleans! I haven't eaten since those punks beat me up!" and his attention turned to the Burly man walking in a second time. ((OOC Note: Aaron was completely oblivious to the rest of the chaos after he cleared the civilians.)) "Who's the macho guy?" He asked. ((Sorry, I couldn't write much, I have School, and writer's Block.))

The Elf was slightly confused by the Jackson's words, thus he wasn't able to react in time to shoot. He was blinded by the shadow bomb, and before he could react, he was decapitated by Jackson. Jackson then preceedded to stab the head, just to make sure it was well and truly dead. "Aaron, stop whining and keep up man. Also, I don't know who Macho McMan is either. Yo Macho, who are you, and do I have to kill you?"
