Past Preludes...
Saturday the
28th, January, 2006 - the New Moon
What
happened?
Thomas Moon happened. For two and a half years he hadn't . Gehena had
come, the Red Star blinking. He'd seen the signs. He'd seen that shadow
that housed itself
in Kier's flesh wrestle with a demonic spirit that tore down a
mountain, and he'd seen the Shyden Kindred - Devlin, Rose, and Pandora
- take their toys and just... leave. Where? No one knew. To do what? No
answers.
Ignoring the pleas of his allies, and the threats of his enimies, he
followed his Clan into exile. He embraced his heritage, and wandered
the wild places.
And now he was back. He'd found something out in the woods. An old
friend he'd thought dead for more than a decade. He found her staked
and dreaming. So he woke her up, showered her off at a nearby motel,
told her what she'd missed, and she in turn told him her dream of what
ley around the corner.
Scarlett, whom the Sabbat called Nikita, who once toured the interstate
in a van with "a certain perspective", had dreamed of being Eureka in
the wolf-haunted town of Hillsburough. She had dreamed the werewolves
who'd claimed they were kin had succeeded in their death-pact rite and
she'd been reincarnated, and was living a life of a young girl in that
town, as it was overcome by the megopolis of Heracles. She'd dreamed
that destiny had been thwarted AGAIN and that she'd been turned before
she could become a wolf, instead being a false one - a Gangrel like
Moon . Why? she demanded of
Moon, again and again we are
thwarted in our destiny... Why can't we have our happy ending? When
will this corrupt world end and the next begin?
Moon had no answers. They ordered out, made plans over pizza, took the
delivery boy's truck and petty cash before dumping his body without
ceremony in a shallow grave out in the rural wilds of Lake County.
Times up, they decided. If answers were to be had, it was time to go
back.
