As Carrion experienced her torpor, images begin flashing before her, she recognized it as the night Vigo took her. As it continued on it became faster and faster eventually panning out and becoming almost like a film. She awoke in her dream but all she saw was darkness and pain. She could feel the hard rock under her back, every time she tried to sit up more pain and dizziness erupted from nowhere. She was confused and alone and no idea where she was. A spike of fear shot through her when she heard movement and with that she awoke.
Unfurling herself from the beanbag she fell asleep on hastily, she fell over backwards, her eyes taking in her surroundings for a moment as she lay on her back and realized that she was in her Haven and safe. She slowly got to her feet and looked over to Vigo, noting silently that he had moved in his torpor.
She licked her lips thoughtfully as she watched him, she could swear she tasted blood.

SATURDAY NIGHT
It seems Vigo is still in his torpor, despite the fact that he somehow moved during Carrion's sleep.
Carrion has a new email, that was probably sent early in the morning while she was discussing with Vigo. Damn timing. It's from Pierre, in which he explains he has managed to find trace of Momo's cell-phone. In between all the technical terms Pierre is fond of, he gives out an address, somewhere near the Europe Plaza (in between Quinconces and the Lake, that plaza is mostly known to be one surrounded by low income housing in tall buildings, as well as a cheap dead-end super market, a post office -which also serves as a bank for the poor and tightwad-, and the social security center, where you must go and wait for hours to get medical refunds, sick days and else).
Looking online the address isn't a problem, but it gives just a building, and the views around those "residences" aren't very clear online, as most have some private parking and their own local accomodations (gotta keep the poor together right ? ghettoisation..).

She realized she was panting as she rose to her feet, taking a deep (if unneeded) breath she steadied herself and got up. Sitting back on the beanbag and booting up the computer, the wait was relatively short and she began looking over the emails. Mostly spam but the one from Pierre peaked her interest. She replied to him quickly asking for him to dumb down the terminology hoping to get a better understanding.
Whilst she waited for a reply she looked up the address, she didn't like the idea of going alone, a spike of fear ran through her as she thought of what could happen, like her mortal self she had vanished, she didn't want that now, she knew she would not really be missed, the Nosferatu were a practical lot, they may wonder for a while but eventually her memory would fade into the background of history to be forgotten.
She turned slightly to look at Vigo, maybe when he woke he would go with her, she decided best she could do was cool her heels until a reply from Pierre came or Vigo awoke. She didn't like this situation, it smelt like trouble and she didn't want to bring another clan into this, the others knowledge of it was bad enough. | |

Pierre can't explain in further details the language he uses to describe the actual systems that managed for him to locate a newer information. The signal is two nights more recent than the one he had picked at the Fabrick.
Vigo, late bird, finally awakes as he stretches out, mutters, grins, and sits on the mattress. He scratches his scalp with a snort and then gives a smile to Carrion. (Vigo) Hey. Still early bird uh ?

Carrion curses her inability to understand but leaves it at that since she heard Vigo begin to stir. Her head snapped around to look at him, obviously unused to having others sleep in her Haven. She watches him silently and returns his smile when he gives it.
..I guess so..
She watches him carefully for a moment before hesitantly speaking again.
...You moved...
There was definitely a note of curiosity in her voice as she spoke. Reclining back in her chair she takes him in properly waiting to hear what he had to say.

The Nosferatu takes his time to put on his shoes. (Vigo) Of course I moved. I'm no Gargoyle! Well I'm back to the cellars now.
He stands and stretches and smiles. He obviously either doesn't understand the question asked, or denies and acts out of bad faith. (Vigo) I'll go and have a look with Horsman about those skulls. I'll keep you informed of what "Carrion" spoke and did with the Tremere, uh.

| - Spoiler:
Carrion gives her sire a slightly perplexed look and tries to explain better.
I didn't think we moved in torpor...
But she trails off unable to explain any further, before he goes she stops him.
Before you go, Pierre thinks he has had another blip on Momo's mobile.
She brings up the map and points out the location to Vigo.
It seems a little odd, I was wondering if you or someone could come with me.
She seems a bit shy asking him for help.

The Nosferatu openly ignores the comment about moving in torpor, but he seems interested about Momo's new location. (Vigo) Sorry, I'm no good outside the cellars. And Pierre ain't the kind to leave his office anyway, not that he can anyway! He's the only one able to link those from under and those at the surface. And to keep finding you info on that stuff.
He nods and shrugs vaguely. (Vigo) It's true you shouldn't be moving alone though. I'll ask, but you'd have better luck with other kids.

Carrion didn't seem too bothered that he had openly ignored her question, she accepted that her Sire did not want to answer her. She watched him carefully and again wasn't surprised by his next response, she had openly expected the response he gave her.
Yeah, I know, thank you for asking for me.
She seemed genuinely grateful that he agreed to ask for her, he knew she had a soft spot for him and even though in some ways she was cynical Vigo knew he could take advantage if he really wanted even without the blood bond he had renewed last night.

The Nosferatu leaves his childe's haven without any further information. He's very mindful about being seen or followed, and promptly disappears from the surface.

Carrion's phone rang busy to Fred because Pierre has called her. (Pierre) Hey! I heard you needed some back-up 'bout Momo right ? Doctor said he'll come with you. He's on his way to the Theatre, so you'll probably meet there alright ?

Carrion answered very quickly;the phone did not get a chance to ring twice.
Hey Pierre, yeah sounds good. I'll get there as quick as I can. Thanks for your help, keep safe.Â
Hanging up the phone, she takes a few minutes to grab a few essentials, and fling them into her battered satchel.

| Sunday Night - Haven:
Nyx arrived back at her Haven with very little difficulty, once she had parked up the scooter she went immediately inside, careful to not trip herself over the fishing gut she had pulled taught but still testing to see if it had been broken with the door on her way in.Â
Quickly she found a bucket and filled it with water from the tap closeby. She was quick to remove the clothes and place them in the bag they had been put in when she bought them and place them to one side.Â
The Nosferatu washed with a cloth and the water she had rectrieved, she was thorough and wasn't willing to leave anything to chance. When she was done she redressed in a clean set of clothing before grabbing the bag and making her way back out again.Â
She decided to dispose of the clothing, deodrant and shoes in a public bin but made sure it wasn't close to her haven. Before returning to the Theatre she decided to feed believing she had enough time.

Nyx pulled up to her Haven, she parked carefully making sure she kept her scooter out of the way.
Carefully she walked inside, she glanced around taking note of anyone that was present before making her way down the hallway to her door at the far end of the corridor.
Quickly she checked her fishing gut bolted into the floor before stepping over it, closing the door behind her and switching a lamp on. Nyx was cautious, she had listened very carefully to make sure no one was there before entering.
With a sigh she sat on her beanbag and decided to wait for Vigo, habitually she checked the time and her emails to kill some time.

The place is clean and people-less. However, something has changed, someone has entered Nyx's haven while she wasn't there. Nothing has been disturbed, however her computer is running, the browser has been opened, and a quick glance will grant her the first visible change : she has a new folder in her browser's favorites, under the name "interesting data to watch". Sadly she doesn't have much time to check it, as the sound of keys and the handle being opened caught her ears.

Nyx sat on her beanbag for a long moment, something was off but she couldn't put her finger on it immediately. Then it clicked. She didn't leave her computer on. Â The Nosferatu had just enough time to find the new folder before she heard the key in the lock, she minimized the browser quickly and stood up uncertain now of whom would walk through the door. She listened carefully trying to hear anything distinctive.
Quickly she made a grab for her pocket knife which was on the desk and placed it in one of her pockets before turning her attention back to the door which was now being opened, waiting to see whom walked through.

[i]The lack of other sounds apart from the key can give a clue to Nyx, but she quickly finds out it's Vigo. He enters as if nothing, taking off the scarf he uses to hide his hideous face to the general public. He closes behind him and gives a grin full of rotten teeth to Nyx. He speaks with a little cynism as to break the ice but also he seems in a better mood than before.[i] (Vigo) You're early, good ! You couldn't stand being left without by sexy beautiful presence, could you?

Nyx watched him for a long moment, uncertain of how to respond her hands were still in her pockets masking her clenched fists from view. With all the uncertainty she had forgotten to drop her obsfucate but she did it without even noticing when he spoke revealing her true form.
I should slap you.
There was a tone of weariness in her voice as well as uncertainty. Her hands removed themselves from her pockets empty handed and crossed loosely at her abdomen.
Of all of us, you choose to do this shit to me...
She didn't finish the sentence, almost unable to because she was too scared to say it outright, almost hoping Griffin was wrong. She was too cynical to trust even Vigo enough to give him the benefit of the doubt any more.

Vigo gives a more serious, curious look at Nyx. He probably doesn't get what she's telling him. (Vigo) I thought we already discussed the me-killing-you-and-turning-you-into-an-ugly-monster problem a few years ago. How's the "kids digging into our domain" shit going?
Obviously he dismisses the subject, and he doesn't look too happy about having come all the way to her haven for something as trivial as being undead conscious issue..

Nyx twitched as he spoke, her temper warring with her patience.
"Ahhah, I'm more pissed about the whole whooo let's keep feeding your childe blood every so often like a ghoul thing."
Patting her pockets she found her tin and began to rolls a cigarette, it seemed to be quite a familiar sight to Vigo for her to produce it in times of true emotional stress.

Vigo chuckles and smiles widely. He approaches a little. (Vigo) So you finally found out, not bad. Tough luck my childe, they all do it, and I needed some security. It's not like I give you stupid orders, humiliate you and use you for my own benefit openly.
He shrugs, he obviously did nothing wrong, at least that's how he thinks about it.

Nyx slid the tin out of sight once more, she doesn't back away from him seeming to not care about the distance for now. Nyx didn't smile or react for a minute.
You had my loyalty from the beginning...and you knew that.
Her eyes watched him closely, clasping the rolled cigarette and almost crushing it.
No, they don't.
She shook her head slightly.
True, probably why I haven't hit you for this yet but that still doesn't excuse you.

The Nosferatu hisses a little, and turns. (Vigo) Fine, find me when you need me, you won't see me and I won't give you any more. Pffe, here I was thinking you'd accept it as a proof that I don't want to lose you.
He moves on to leave.

Why couldn't you just tell me from the beginning? Hell, I probably would have accepted it and wouldn't have questioned it.
Vigo could feel her hand grip at his shoulder tugging at him, he knew her well enough to know she worked well with rational or honest answers.
