The town was desolate, at first. It seemed as if no one lived there anymore. There had been no more torn up bodies, merely total disappearances.

There were only so many places to run. The police station was more operational than ever. And Dalivan would just happen to walk in, right in their time of crisis.

And now, a few people –himself included- had decided to do something- police or no police. He had joined as a sort of final resignation or humiliation- a message that said, “I might be a total failure, but at least I’ll count for something if I do this.” Not just be noticed- count. Be more than an idol in the minds of men. Be more than an idol in his own mind.

There was something- something like a higher power -and though he scarcely believed in such things, there was no denying it- something called for him to be important. Or at least do something important. After that, people could forget the name of Dalivan Hase, for all he cared- so long as what he did was remembered.

“Alright, here’s my idea. First, Everyone who disappeared, didn’t in their own house. It was always outside. Second, there’ve been no more mutilations- or at least, if there are, we haven’t known about them. Third, Whoever these guys are, it’s the working of quite a bit of either very smart or very well-armed individuals- more than likely both. Remember they downed an FBI team, and before we could tell anyone about it, shut down the phones. To the entire town.”

“Also, wolf sightings have been more frequent. Now, I’m somewhat of a materialist, and I’m not keen to scream werewolf. I’m thinking it’s a crazy group with a bunch of the guys on the loose, apparently trained to hunt humans. But I suppose I could be wrong.”

“Finally, it’s always at night, and it’s more than just monthly. It’s weekly, sometimes daily. So any aspects of a werewolf, in my opinion, are shot down there, with the whole full moon aspect. Granted, disappearances do tend to be on a full moon. But not always.”

He heaved out a long sigh. “Any suggestions? We’ve got a day ahead of us.”

Haveing to do a lot of research on werewolves while he made his videogame, he knew a bit about the beasts. Well werewolves, monsters, or crazy guys with guns, we'll need more than bare fists and a few knives. Who's the craziest redneck in town? While he said this his hand went to the only thing he could think would be useful as a weapon, his chain...

He still has to avenge his friend, and if something was able to kill a bunch of FBI guys, he'd need a gun, and then three more...

Also if the attacks aalways happen at night, and its always outside, why hasnt the city set a curfew yet?

"I would guess that it is a given and unnecessary considering that most people stay inside anyways." Ryan said, fingering his sword case on the table.

"One thing's for sure, every abled body man should at least hold something to defend himself with if he is attacked, or maybe the police should have checkpoints or something along those lines to protect civilians like us."

Alan steps in their. "We had checkpoints like that to protect the civilians but they were overrun by whatever these things are. I too believe in werewolfs but this is getting out of hand. Trust me i have my set of sliver bullets just in case but still do we think this is really the work of werewolfs. What we need is to set up a trap for what ever is plaguing this town and get over with it."

There was nothing that came from his mouth but a light "Harumph."

"If anything, these are cultists. But tell me- have you seen any men change into wolves?"

Silence, and "no's," were the only response.

"Then you have no hard evidence. And no reason to be putting silver in guns. This is a criminal of purely mundane flesh and blood, no matter how disturbed their mind or method."

He muttered something that sounded like "townsfolk" in a contemptuous tone.

(And you are seriously metagaming Snuggles. Wait a bit before crying wolf. Other than that, good job so far.)

Well we could split into groups of 2s or 3s and search the town for clues, Dalivan, do you know of any places were we could look? Also Officer Samson, can't you deputize us or something? Besides, if we're dealing with cultists or men with bloodlusts, what could we use as a trap? Edward said, not afraid to speak his mind. Thinking to himself, Why are we listining to some pompus actor, we should be following Officer Samson or Mr. Lee.

"You know what um... what is your name again?..." He looks over to Edward. "If we follow your plan and 'split up' your just going to do the old horror movie cliche. And no i can't deputize you... you would have to go to the chief about that. I was thinking that the trap could be set up as kind of a box or building with a volunteer in it as bait then trap what ever it is in the box or building and pull our volunteer out of their before he/she gets hurt."

OOC: Thank you and i am sorry for the metagamming from before.

"Would you elaborate more on the person that is to be the bait officer?" Ryan said.

OOC: Can't think of anything else to say :(

Nicolas sat in the corner of the room quiet, thinking this plan of theirs is only going to get more people killed. He flips out and back in the blade of his hunting Knife his grandfather gave him as a boy.

"I think..." finally speaking.” I think we should just stay together and wait till morning." He flips the blade out of the holster. "If this thing is a werewolf and there is a person changing back and forth, then who ever isn't with us that night must be the culprit." He flips it back in. He looks around the room. “Well that’s my idea, don’t like it, then I am wasting my time here.”

Hmm.. thats a good idea, but what about when we get tired? I think we could all sleep, but about 3 people stay awake in shifts, if one of thems the killer, the toher two could wake us up. Yah and my name's Edward He said. He was a little worried about that guy with the knife. But really Bait! that's just another horror movie...

But your bait idea is a great idea, lets just use both our ideas, it'll be just like a episode of scooby doo... Sorry, if we used bait there'd just be another body...

"Umm... I like the idea of...What is you name, you in the corner?" Points at Nicolas. Then looks at Edward. "What bodies? I haven't seen a body or this would be over. That is what this thing is about. It has all been kidnappings and not a one has told me if their has been a sign of who has gone or who has come back or what ever." Turns back to Nicolas. "If we are to do you plan we are going to need the names of everyone here so that we can keep track of everyone." He starts to look around to everyone, expecting names so he pulls out a pad of paper and a pen to write down everyone's name start with his own then Edwards.

My name is Ryan Lee, I am the Instructor and Master of my martial arts school a few miles from here.

*looks to Nicolas*

What makes you think that one of us is the murderer?


((seriously, nobody is even supposed to know if one of us is the werewolf.... only the werewolf knows who the werewolf is and we are not allowed to figure out who it is until Mea gives the WW a go. ))

((You guys DO know it's morning, right? I stated that in the sign-up sheet.))

Dalivan looked across the room, the general squabbling, then finally- "ALRIGHT!"

Quiet. He could project when he wanted to.

"Look, we've got day ahead of us. The police want to keep everything confidential- can't blame them, really. But let's face the facts. A SWAT team of some type should've come in after that FBI team disappeared. Why didn't they? Doesn't that seem a little odd to you?"

"For that matter, people who leave town even on what are supposed to be errands don't return- sometimes during broad daylight. Monsters are no, these are still men we're dealing with. Perhaps they train wolves, perhaps they are wolves, and if you ask me, it'd be easier the second way around- we kill the wolf, we kill the man too. But I digress. In any case, the smartest thing I can think of is looking at the time frames."

Dalivan pulled out a sheet of paper folded from his pocket.

"I've been keeping track of them. All the people who skip town -or even go to the town limits- on errands, dissapear, Daylight or otherwise. All the other kidnappings are at night. Maybe the way's-" he searched for a word- "Blocked somehow. But if these people can keep a SWAT team from coming in..."

He was totally lost, and thus was his sentence. There was no way any normal individual could have stopped an entire SWAT team. Not even a team of armed men. There was something more afoot then a simple serial killer.

Something was afoot.

And there was more to it than anyone was likely to give, except for the wolf-man theory. And even then, that was totally out of the bounds of reason.

Or was it?

Maybe just beyond the bounds of imagination?
