"Playing with guns can be hazardous to your life." Edmund growled. "Now put that thing away before you get yourself hurt." Edmund started walking towards the entrance of the complex.
"I am just a weary pilgrim, caught of guard by the storm. I ask nothing more than a place to dry myself and tend to my injuries. I advise you not to force my hand."

Kane met the creature at the door. "I'm already patching people up, want me to take a look at you?" he asked. "Would be a great opportunity to see what kindof creature you are!"

Edmund stood in front of the doorway as he met the bald man with the goggles offering him aid.
"That is very kind, my scars need cleaning and my wings need setting." Behind Edmund the woman fired her gun. The automatic salva was mostly absorbed by Edmund's back and tail. Those stray bullets not embedded in his backskin or tail were lodged in the wall surrounding the doorway. "And I'll need a pair of pliers."
Edmund turned, his eyes glowing and illuminating the courtyard like a pair of headlights. He crossed the distance to the woman with a mighty jump, though his trajectory was slightly off due to the dislocations of his wingdigits. He tore the gun from the woman's hands and ripped it in two.
"Consider this my last warning." Edmund rumbled. "And count yourself blessed that I'm weary."
Edmund walked back to the door. Somewhat surpirsed that he had been able to hold himself back so. The man was still standing there, his expression unreadable due to his goggles.
"I fear we'll need more room than this corridor provides, if we're to relocate my wings."

"Indeed." Kane answered and walked back to retrieve the medkit. "We can use the tennis field out there, if Vlad helps me we could relocate both the wings at once. I will remove the bullets and stop your bleeding after we've done that." he answered, then looked past Edmund at the woman standing in half-shock behind the beast. "You know, you really should've killed her. I would have. Now, let's get to it!"
He motioned for Vlad to come outside and walked through the door out to the beast.

"I'm not bleeding. My scar tissue just doesn't get the chance to harden in the rain and it keeps washing out. I was referring to the gravel that's stuck in the smaller scars. Though disinfecting may be a good idea first. As for the woman, I've enough blood on my 'hands' as is." Edmund said sullen. "And I would likely have reacted more vehemently if I was'n't so weary."

"My Divine nature has been greatly exagerated. But since you're offering," Edmund streched his wings to their full span, "the digits of my wings are slightly dislocated. It's better to force them back into place when I strech them than when I fold them and do it myself."

- Right. Kane, you take the right wing- Said Vlad and started to return the joints of the wing to their place. The two roughly finished at the same time.
- You were at the Langsley mall when Oroboros showed up right? Shame to admit but that urod helped us take out the mayor. He provided a perfect decoy for the police. Now then. Let's get you inside.

Kane and Vlad followed Edmund inside and Kane asked him to sit down on his knees. "I'll take care of those bullets and clean up a bit on your back." he said, searching the med kit for the tools necessary. He picked out the bullets easily, the skin had stopped them without much problem. When he finished he used saltwater and gauze pads to clean up what needed to be, and finished up by putting on a bandage mainly just for show.
"Now what does it take to beat a big beast like you, hm?" Kane asked, walking up infront of Edmund. "I imagine it must be something really powerful."

"You were at the Langsley mall when Oroboros showed up right? Shame to admit but that urod helped us take out the mayor. He provided a perfect decoy for the police. Now then. Let's get you inside." The bearded man said had he forced Edmund's wingdigits back into place.
"I was, not that it did me much good. I arrived late and wasn't able to do anything." Edmund replied.
He was silent as the goggled man picked the bullets out of his back and tail. Several of them had been lodged in his skin for weeks and he had not been able to reach them.
Edmund himself carefully scratched the gravel out of his old scars while his back was being tended to.
"Now what does it take to beat a big beast like you, hm? I imagine it must be something really powerful."
"A stern sermon by a priest usualy does the trick." Edmund said jokingly. "Would either of you mind telling me where I've managed to make my worst landing in years?"

"Well, there is Mr. X, then there is Mr. Redfox, and there is this group of superheroes that they've gathered there to deal with the Ouroboros problem." One of the men said "Think it was Inferno, two mercenaries, one was named Vladimir I think, then there is Jack Kane and some girl who got some weird shadow powers. Fought Ouroboros at the Langsley Mall I heard. We are also trying to find the gargoyle who fought Ouroboros, but who knows where he is."
The car pulled up to a building "Anyway, here we are. Just walk right in and through the corridor, inside the lobby they should be easy enough to spot." He said as he exited the car and opened the door to the backseats.
I nodded in responds and took note of what street we were on. "Decaystreet?" I mumbled and looked at Econ "I'll go in first if you don't mind. Cover my backside." I said and made my way up the stairs.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The Dead-Men-Walking Club for living people who are labled dead by society!" Jack answered the gargoyle and stretched his hand out "Jack Redfox, chairman of this club at your service. Sorry about Ida, she can and the security staff can be quite paranoid at times. But God must have a great sense of humour making you crash land here in our courtyard when we got people all over town looking for you. Of course it was a shame that you "crash-landed" here, I was after all hoping that it was your search for Inferno that had brought you here." Jack gestured with his arm towards Inferno and noticed that the clubmember he had given Mr. X's phone to stood behind him.
"WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? LEAVING ME IN THE HANDS OF THIS TURTLE WHO CANNOT RUN EVEN IF WE HAD WHIPPED HIS BACK?! DID IT NEVER OCCUR TO YOU THAT I TOO WANTED TO TALK TO THE GARGOYLE?!" Mr. X shouted from the other side of the phone.
"...Aaaand allow me to introduce Mr. X, who is currently on a mission to salvage technology and information. He sent you a letter before did he not?" Jack said.
"Yes, as a matter of fact I did! And I am glad he is here, now my people also tells me that Econ and The Commissioner just arrived outside of this building, so I suggest you go greet them!" Mr. X said irritated and annoyed to Jack who started moving towards the Lobby-exit.
"No matter," Mr. X's tone was now welcoming "Welcome Mr. Gargoyle, to this meeting over 'people-who-need-to-help-mankind-defeat-Ouroboros-before-he-destroys-the-world. I am Mr. X and I hear you already have met Jack Kane and Vladimir Alujev. The other people of interest here are Inferno and you will soon meet Melony Fletcher...I hope...

Edmund bowed his horned head to the assembly.
"I am pleased to meet you all, you may call me Edmund. But I must warn you Mr. Fox, that using The Lord's name invain can get me very upset."

"Ugg..." Melony groaned as Miasma pumped energy into her. "What...?"
Well, girl. I see that I was finally able to wake you from your near-coma. And how are we this fine twenty minutes later? The gargoyle is here.
"Miasma? What... gargoyle?" Melony struggled to wake herself up. "Where did Jack go?" And finally, the exhaustion was broken. Miasma stopped pumping the energy it was draining from the supers into Melony and began working on transforming it for its own purposes. "Oh, it's you, from the mall." She told Edmund. she noticed the small pockmarks from the removed bullets in his hide. "Are you OK?"
She saw Kane standing back holding his tweezers and other medical supplies. She jumped off the couch and gave him a hug, "Thank you... Again Jack. I don't know what I would do without you right now."
((As she ran past Edmund his skin became less rock like and any of the blood rage that had been forming died down a little bit.))

Vlad emptied another glass of vodka.
- Leave the bottle.- He said to the bar.
- Seeing as more and more are coming, I'd say we're up for more.- Vlad refilled his and Kane's glasses, and poured several other glasses that the bar had put on the counter.- Let's seal this new alliance with the elixir of friendship!- he laughed heartly.- Na zdorovje!

"Umm... Thank you, Vlad? I don't drink vodka... Um... red wine if you please." She told the bar.
Grow a spine, girl.
-Grow a sense of decency, Miasma- Melony thought.
"I'll be joining you in the toast still, Vlad." She clinked her glass against his. "Long live us!"

Edmund took the glass of vodka. But as he raised the glass in the toast, he accidentally crushed the glass in his claws.
"Oops, sorry 'bout that.."
Edmund licked up the liqour that clung to his claws, revealing a long tipped tongue.(Like the HOMMV Imp)
"Best to serve my next drink in something a little less fragile. Is there any Trappist beer?"

As I walked through the corridor the door on the other side opened and a man dressed in a suit came out if it. "Mr. Commissioner, Mr. Econ! Come in! Come in! You two are the only ones missing from the party! Even the gargoyle got here before you two!" the man shouted to us.
"The gargoyle?" my mind asked and I turned towards Econ "So they already got him here? I see. Well that means that if anything goes wrong we got him on our side at the very least."
The man in the suit waited at the door for us to come to him, stretched out his hand to shake both our hands and said "Name is Jack Redfox, chairman of the "Dead-Men-Walking" club for living people labeled "dead" by the government. Please follow me and greet the rest of the group."
"The Commissioner." I nodded to him "And who are the others?"
"You'll see, they can introduce themselves if they wish." Jack smiled and gestured for us to follow him towards the bar.
"And here are our two last guests. Gentlemen, allow me to introduce Mr. Econ and The Commissioner from Germany." Jack grinned to the group before turning towards Econ and myself again "What do the two of you wish to drink? We are sealing this alliance with a toast." Jack found glasses and poured himself some Red Wine.
"Alliance? What alliance?" I said "I just came here because your goons told me, and him" I pointed at Econ "That a Mr. X had information on a Ouroboros!"
"Yes, and that would be me!" The phonebox said "Mr. X at your service! Information broker, shapechanger, and scientist. Would have loved to give you all my card but I am a little short on hands right now."
((Going to leave it to someone else to explain the reason why we are here. I got to go to sleep and I feel like I am taking to much control here xP))

"I'll take some water, if you please." Econ looked warily around and excepted his glass, taking a small sip.
