"Boys, please!"
Adalrich laughs uproariously, wrapping his fingers around his glass, and downing yet another alcoholic beverage, “Me? Well, aren’t we a little hypocritical? You’ve been nothing if not utterly disrespectful to me since the moment we met. I, unlike my sweet little friend over there, am not going to prostrate myself upon the ground so that you can walk all over me. You’re a whiney child that needs a good spanking to straighten out his attitude, maybe if you’re lucky Elizabeth can give you a firm caning tonight, HAH! You’ve really got a big mouth on ya, if you want to go and take your chances with Vikrcop alone, be my guest, it’s no skin off my nose.”
“It’s not as if The Kindred plans to allow Vikrcop to go gallivanting around, devouring children and burning New York to the ground. One does not simply trounce into The Order of The Eye and start blowing heads off, if you had a rational thought in your head at this current point in time you’d realize now is the time to form a plan of attack.”
Elizabeth sighs and rolls her shoulders in an attempt to sooth the irritation tightening her muscles. I don't understand why Kain has to be so combative and DAMMIT ADDIE can't you learn to tred more softly with people like him? She frowns at the two men, their childish behavior almost too much for the sweet sanguinist to bear, “just until I get back, if you want to leave after that… Well, like I said before… I won’t stop you. Just remember, I’ve got your back, whatever you need and whenever you need it. Try to behave yourself until I get back, both of you.”

Kain glares at Adalrich. The attacks on Kain's maturity and the innuendo getting under the young Vampire's skin.
"Fuck you, Adalrich. Unlike you, I don't take having my fucking life turned upside down too lightly. And knowing this monster has you by the short and curlies is pathetic. As I said, while you sit there, forming a plan, he is out there killing innocent people. I put all the blame for not ending Vikrcop before he got so powerful on you, and the lives taken or changed because of him on your head. You say you don't plan on letting Vikrcop gallivant around, but while you try and gather a band of misfit toys, you let that happen. What's your plan? Wait until you are the only "living" souls in town and then deal with him?"
Kain stands from his seat and once again, marches towards the door.
"Be the change you want to see in the world. While you sit there like the bitch you are, Lizz has done more to help me."
Kain looks at Lizz as she asks him to wait, at least until she returns. The anger in his eyes betray his intentions as he looks back to Adalrich.
"I'll be damned if I sit here another hour with a coward like him. If Vikrcop killed him, I'd actually praise him as I stick a knife through Vikrcop's heart."

"A like the night life." Adalrich and Elizabeth “I don’t have time for this Kain, please, wait here…I’ve got to go get Lucas, you’ll like him. I will be back before you know it,” the emerald haired vampire gives his hand a reassuring squeeze before darting out the door, “behave yourselves.”Adalrich silently watches as the sweet sanguinist takes her leave. As soon as the door closes behind her he releases a peel of derisive laughter, slamming his fist upon the counter top and wiping tears from his eyes, “oh, you’re a special flower. Do as you please baby vampire, I won’t walk on egg shells because Elizabeth tells me to. You need to be taught a lesson, that your ridiculous behavior and blatant disrespect for others, especially a leader of a group you are trying to align yourself with, will not be taken lightly. I won’t let you goad me into a physical altercation, which it seems you would be more than happy to exercise, and I won’t let you cloud my thoughts with your raging prepubescent vampire hormones. Go find your daddy baby vampire, suckle on his wizened breast and partake in the horrors Vikrcop is infamous for… I don’t care and I most definitely won’t still my blade if we should cross paths and you happen to be working for The Order. Elizabeth may think she sees some kind of innate good in you, but I see you for what you really are, an angry child blinded by his desire for vengeance.”He pulls a shotgun out from under the bar, a weapon well known amongst bar regulars for shooting exploding silver rounds, which is a common weakness amongst supernaturals, “now, I will be kind enough to allow you to stay until she returns, but I will most definitely not give my blessing for you being welcomed into The Kindred. If you want to leave now, I won’t stop you either, and don’t mind the gun… I don’t take having my life threatened lightly… I wouldn’t use it unless you forced me to.” "I like to boogie."

Kain sees the silver laden shot gun and settles down. He may have wishes to die, but not before Vikrcop.
"Fine. You win."
Kain walks up to the bar, hands in the air showing he has no violent intentions in his movement.
"What do you plan to talk about with the Kindred in regards to Vikrcop. I still don't understand how a fellow vampire has you guys so scared. I mean, he is no more powerful than the rest of you, right?"
Kain settles back a little, thinking about the night he turned.
"He's not just another vampire, is he?"

"A like the night life." Adalrich Adalrich smiles when Kain relaxes at the sight of the dangerous implement, pleased to see the young vampire relinquishing the fight, he too is more than ready to cease bickering. His digits wrap around the gun, pulling the elephant in the room off of the table top before depositing it back into its home. Adalrich places his hands on the bar and sighs, simultaneously relaxing his pose, “A plan of attack of course, we must act immediately, obviously something big is in motion, but just you or I can do nothing to quell the oncoming storm. I think pretty highly of myself, but not that highly. We need numbers, a team of elite fighters, The Order of The Eye has many within its grasp, this is going to be a battle for the history books. We need to figure out where their base of operations is, perhaps plant a mole to gather information and find a weakness we can exploit. Going in without thinking first is how you get people killed.”He pulls out a drinking glass, bottle of vodka and a cylindrical container of ruby red blood, “would you like a Crimson Russian?” his hand darts under the counter again and produces another glass, “Vampers aren’t to be taken lightly Kain, you should know that, old ones especially. Someone that doesn’t feel guilt or any of those pesky human emotions that have a tendency to deter one from mass murder and add to that inhuman strength and speed, now that’s dangerous.”The booze peddler pours about three fingers of the firewater into his glass, “no, he’s not just a vampire, which is part of what makes him so much more dangerous… He’s a shifter too, able to change into a giant bat form… He’s a hybrid.”"I like to boogie."

Kain rubs his head. All this is happening, and he still doesn't get what is going on with his Maker.
"I get that he's dangerous, Lizz made that very clear earlier. But don't they get weaker with age?"
Kain sits back, pulls out his folded bat shaped knife and spins it amongst his fingers.
"What is going on. Six months ago, the only vampires I ever read about were in novels. Now that I am one, I hear of Kindred, Inquisition, an Order, hybrids, shifters. What's next? You going to tell me super heroes are real too?"

"A like the night life."Adalrich Adalrich releases a long drawn out sigh, not nearly as patient as the sweet sanguinist and growing weary of the homeless street bat asking questions about Vikrcop, “What part about he’s different are you not getting?"An irritated expression contorts Kain's face and Addie immediately flashes him an apologetic smile, "Sorry, I can be impatient... Anywho, he’s both a shifter and a vampire… Shifters don’t work the same ways Vampires do… Shifter’s are high energy, Vampire’s are low energy, he’s both.. His body doesn’t act the same as either race, he is unique and that makes him dangerous. I know I’ve said this before, but I’m going to say it again… We honestly don’t know much about him, not like you can just go wandering up to the guy and ask for a blood sample for studying. Maybe that could be your first mission as a Kindred member since you seem so eager; hunt down the hybrid beast and bring us back a blood sample so that we might better know our enemy? Hmm? Sound intriguing enough to you youngblood?”The ostentatious booze peddler chortles lightly to show his compatriot he is merely joking. Although, a certain twinkle in his eye reveals more, god what I wouldn’t give for somebody strong and ballsy enough to really do it. The things we could learn about that bastard with even a sliver of DNA. He shrugs his shoulders in response to his inner thoughts, calming the hungry storm within, and pours himself another drink, “you’d think I’d be dead with the amount of liquor I imbibe on a regular basis, but then... I guess that just comes with the territory of no longer being human.”He gives Kain a sour grin that only another Non-human like the two of them could possibly understand and his eyes divert to the entrance, “She’s been gone a lot longer than I had anticipated… I hope Elizabeth didn’t run into trouble… Though, with Lucas trouble’s inevitable, the boy hunts Demons for Christ’s sake.”He devours the fire water in one voracious gulp and returns his gaze to the troubled Vampire, “you know, Soul haven has many connections throughout New York, we could get you a job and a place to stay… Though only if you’re interested, no pressure.”"I like to boogie."

Kain sees the twinkle as Adalrich suggests someone infiltrating the Order.
"You almost seem to relish the idea of sending someone to their potential death, Adalrich. I'm sure you've never given such a risky task to a youngling like me, in hopes I'd die."
Kain sits back a moment. He realizes he's gotten a little testy again, so he takes a moment to catch his wind and calming down.
"What would it take for me to join The Kindred?"
When Kain hears the proposal for finding work and a place to stay, the same irritation overtakes him as it did when Elizabeth made the proposal.
"Why do you people think I want some hand out? First Elizabeth and now you. I'm happy the way I am living right now."

"A like the night life."Adalrich “First of all, if you’re going to be a member of The Kindred, then you’ll need to learn that we help one another. The Kindred is a family, family takes care of family. However, you are most definitely not required to accept our help, if you do not wish to, and nobody is going to shun you if you do. We are all in the same boat, it’s a hard knock life for the likes of us. And by that I do not mean to imply that we have the same history or that I can grasp what you've been through... But don't pretend to know what I've been through either.”He scoops up the glasses from the counter top and takes the behind the bar where a pristine sink awaits to clear them of their grim and prepare them for paying customers. Once he's finished, he wipes his hands dry on a fresh dishtowel and gives the Vampire a warm smile, in hopes it will assure him he meant no ill will in his earlier statement, “And I definitely didn’t mean for you to die in the suggestion that we infiltrate the ranks of The Order. Fresh vampire fledglings and young Non-Humans are more easily trusted as new recruits than the older more established ones. Someone like me, Elizabeth or Lucas would be found out before we even walked through the door. Our names are already known, whispered amongst members of The Order of The Eye, and so are our faces. You on the other hand, have an in, a variable I am sad to admit I wouldn’t be opposed to exploiting.”He cocks his head to the side, gazing at the time and then back at Kain, “we'll hold a meeting of the higher ranking members of The Kindred and there will be a vote as to whether or not you will be accepted into our ranks. You’ll start off as a pup, a new recruit, and probably move up the ranks fairly quickly if you’re a skilled fighter.”"I like to boogie."

"A part of me doesn't really trust you don't want to send me off to my death after you showed me your little pal behind the counter. But I'll take you at your word."
Kain sits for a bit. The conversation has grown stale to him, and his impatience has started to show. When is Lizz getting back?
"What is the history of the Kindred?"

"A like the night life."Adalrich Adalrich chuckles lightly, chocolate colored orbs sparkling and he shakes his head, “A part of me doesn’t really trust you either… Why would Vikrcop let you live? Hmmm? Why would a fledgling of one of the most feared Non-humans in history choose to come here? How convenient to befriend a major player in The Kindred and then ask to join our ranks. If I hadn’t met you, gotten a feel for your personality and seen how much Elizabeth trusts you… Well, I would kick you to the curb, purely to avoid The Order of The Eye having the opportunity to do exactly what I was talking about having you do to them. It’s pretty obvious we aren’t going to be friends, but I think we can definitely share the same den and the same good friend… But, if you ever hurt Elizabeth… You’ll have more than just me to worry about. She’s a sweet girl, too sweet for her own good, but she’s got powerful friends with no qualms with killing first and asking questions later when it comes to her safety.”His eyes dart below the counter top, scanning the slender form of his trusty peacemaker, “hey, I was just letting you know, if things get out of hand and you try to rip out my throat, I know how to take care of your kind. I would never shoot anybody that didn’t make their intentions to kill me clear.”Once again his eyes dart to the clock on the wall, she should be here by now, “Since the beginning of the existence of Non-humans on this plane there has been The Kindred and The Order of The Eye; yin and yang…. Good vs Evil. The Kindred works to bring peace and a kind of symbiosis to our new land and our new neighbors. We are endeavored with the responsibility to not only protect the veil, but also our human brothers and sisters, for the betterment of all. The Order has been our sworn enemy since the beginning, thwarting our efforts at a peaceful existence at every turn and trying desperately to break the veil and unleash the horrors of our worlds upon this plane. We also act as a safe haven and support system for wayward souls such as yourself… Excuse me… I apologize… Such as orphans and young Non-human’s with nowhere to go. What exactly do you want to know about The Kindred?”"I like to boogie."

"You honestly think I'd work for Vikrcop!? In case you haven't realized, I kind of despise what I am..."
Kain takes a moment. He realizes his emotions are getting control. He slumps back into the chair as he settles his nerves.
"I don't know why Vikrcop left me alive. Let me roam free or at least with the illusion of freedom... I don't know where to go now. I want to die, but I want to make that bastard pay for what he did. I don't plan on hurting Lizz either. She's the first ray of light I've seen in somebody since... Well..."
Knightlord gestures to himself as if to say "since I've become this".
"I... How far back does Vikrcop go then? And you keep saying he is a shifter hybrid... I thought all vampires could do that. I mean, you look at Count Dracula, and he made it a habit."

"A like the night life."Adalrich Adalrich furrows his caterpillarlike brows and shakes his head fervently, god this guy takes everything waaay too seriously. He wraps his fingers around the rag he used to clean their glasses and drags it across the counter top, eyes diverting to the clock yet again, four o’clock… She’s cutting it close, that little vamper better get her ass back here before she gets a good licking from the sun, I’d hate to have to wrap her pretty face in gauze again. "No, I honestly don't. I've gotten to know you, I was merely stating that if I hadn't I wouldn't trust you. I'm sorry if I hadn't made that clear. And Vikrcop goes back three thousand years or more, back to when the Non-human's first crossed over into this world. HAHA! No, not all vampires are shifters in the same sense as Coffinterror, though they do have a true form that shows when they’re in danger, all that Hollywood shit is hogwash. Vamp-"The irritating creek of the bar door opening interrupts the Changeling's sentence and he turns his gaze to the door in hopes to find his friend Elizabeth Eberstark standing there. However, much to Adalrich's dismay he finds another of his employees, the stoic hostess Rose, standing on the precipice of the Soul Haven with a manila folder grasped tightly in her hand. She’s clad in a grey pencil skirt and white button up shirt with a matching cardigan with peppery fur around the collar. Addie nods his head impatiently, his hand waving in the air in front of him in a gesture to encourage the quiet Kenyan to deliver whatever news she has brought. The woman takes a deep breath and meanders the rest of the way into the club, depositing the manila folder on the counter top in front of Adalrich, "I'm afraid that one of our members has run into a bit of trouble with a major player in The Order."Addie squints his eyes at the shifter, trying to read her expressionless face as he scoops up the folder and peers inside at its contents. His visage immediately falls, skin growing pale and nostrils flaring, “It’s Elizabeth…. She’s been taken.”The booze peddler instantly fans the contents of the file out on the counter top for Kain to see, “It seems the traffic cameras were able to catch a bit of the action… We have a contact in the police who’s agreed to dispose of this information and let us take care of this situation ourselves.” "I like to boogie."

Kain grins. His temper finally ceasing enough to understand others non-Humans.
"Now that you mention it, that does make sense. But you don't need to worry, I'd rather see the Order destroyed than betray any of you."
Kain looks towards the entrance way as the new comer to the room joins them. Knightlord listens to the conversation intently when Adalrich announces the news.
"What the hell do you mean she's been taken!?"
He grabs the information from Adalrich and looks it over. Kain throws it to the ground in a rage, rushing towards the doors.
"I knew waiting around for your little group therapy session wasn't going to work! Now Vikrcop has Elizabeth, and God only knows what he will do to her."
With that, Kain slams the door and heads out to hunt down his creator.
