Hector See
L.A, the City of Angels. Or the City of Supernaturals, would be a more appropriate title. Hector looked out from the cab window, seeing lights shining through the dark smog like stars in the night sky. He had been traveling with no clear destination in mind, simply asking the taxi driver to just drive. The taxi driver was a rather inauspicious man with dark sunglasses and a thick accent. As Hector turned his head to look around the car, he saw the taxi driver staring at him in the rear view mirror. Hector didn't understand how he could see him in the reflection, as Lasombra are invisible in mirrors. What kind of man was this cab driver?
"Ah, so you must be the American Lasombra Antitribu, the Dark Angel Hector. I've heard about you. A former Sabbat who doesn't believe in myths and legends. I've met many who try to cast off Jyhad, those who believe they are above the legend of Caine and his legacy. Those who have come to the conclusion that there is no person or group they can pledge loyalty to." The cab driver said. Hector was taken aback. The seemingly inconspicuous cab driver knew much about him. "Wait, just who the hell are you?" Hector demanded.
"I am just a driver. As for you, you walk the path of both legends and pariahs. I have walked with many like you, but they all end up in the same place: emptiness." The cab driver said. "Hmm...well I've survived so far on this path, the politics have always bored me anyways. I'm sure nothing is going to change in these nights." Hector said. "Your confidence in your abilities arouses my interest, kindred." The cab came to a stop outside an alleyway and the door unlocked. "Let's see what the Dark Angel has to offer this city. Our drive ends here." Hector stepped out of the car and walked into the alleyway. He saw some figures in the distance, they were muttering something about the Sabbat. On closer inspection, their skin was pale and some of their arms were elongated and clawed. The cab driver had dropped him off at a Sabbat meeting, it would seem. Even though the cab had driven off, Hector could still feel the driver watching him.
Hector walked up to the Shovelheads, who turned to him. "Ah just who the hell is this guy?" said one of the Sabbat. More vampires walked out behind him. "Wait, I know that face. This guy is that Lasombra Antitribu! Oh yes, if we were to take his head, there would be quite the reward." One of the vampires said. "Well alright then, I'll let one of you fledglings take the first swing!" Hector said, pointing to one of the vampires. The vampire ran up and drove his claws into Hector, but only hit nothingness as Hector dissipated into shadow. "Where the hell did he go?!" Screamed one of the Sabbat. Suddenly, a darkness started to blanket the alleyway. The Sabbat started to panic as they could not see a thing. "I'm right behind you" Hector whispered into one of their ears. Before he could react, Hector grabbed the vampire and threw him into another one, colliding them into the wall as they evaporated into red mist.
The darkness faded away as the vampires saw Hector wiping off his hands. "All right, I'm going to give you all another shot. This time, I'll even let you hit me." Hector said, with his arm stretched out beckoning them to attack. Four of the vampires surrounded him, and charged. They all impaled their claws into Hector at once. "Hahaha, looks like we got em', boys". One of the Sabbat said. "Wait, what the fuck is this?!" Dark tentacles began sprouting out from Hector's body, they had impaled the vampire's hands. More tentacles sprouted out as they impaled the four vampires and extended them into the air. The tentacles all receded at once, and they vampires evaporated into red mist. "Pffft...seems like they'll just embrace anyone in the Sabbat these days." Hector thought to himself. Hector calmly walked out of the alley and began walking through the desolate streets. "There's got to be somewhere more interesting than these streets to be." Hector thought.
Just as he turned the corner, he heard music and many people talking. He looked to the source of the noise, and saw a place labeled the Sunset Lounge. A watering hole, huh? Just the kind of place he was looking for. Hector entered the building and saw an entourage of supernaturals in all corners of the bar. He took a seat opposite from a large group of powerful looking vampires and observed them quietly, listening in on their conversation. To his right was a Ventrue with two women accompanying him and to his left was a rather young looking man with a woman with him. "Let's see where this night goes..." Hector thought.
