[Video/Action] First Tower Murder

[Every single night, Johnny would patrol the bubble and, specifically, check on his friends to make sure they were all safe. Sometimes he wouldn't go by the people he knew could take care of themselves if he were pressed for time, but there was one house he always checked on.

Last night, when Jacob's Cabin was dark, he didn't think much of it. There was nothing that seemed amiss and the man often wandered around, it seemed, so Johnny didn't even think twice about it.

It was the scent of blood that drew Johnny from his walk to his tavern. It was faint, at first, but as he walked it grew stronger...and more familiar. By the time he got to the opening of the alleyway, the vampire was a blur on the street. However, he stopped cold when he got to the body. His knees gave out beside the man and trembling hands reached out to touch the wounds, not caring about the blood that would get on him.

How? How had this happened? When? Who? Last night when Johnny thought everything was right with the world and didn't question Jacob's absence? There was nothing. The blood was stale, that gentle heart long since stilled, and the only scent in the alleyway was bleach...even that scent he'd come to love and associate with his father-figure had left the cold body.

Cold flooded him even as hot tears prickled his eyes and ran down his cheeks. The vampire took the man into his arms, not noticing the black-bordered card that slipped from the folds of the sheet Jacob's mutilated corpse was wrapped in.

Quietly, he reached for his SFC and turned it on, not bothering to hide his tears even as he let the venom and steel coat his voice.

When the video turned on, Johnny's murderous glare and Jacob's peaceful face could be seen. Just at the edge, the jagged and bloodied flesh of a slit throat was the only indication the peace was not caused by sleep.]


To those it may concern:

The man known as Jacob is dead.

[...]

To whoever did this....?

Step forward now and I'll attempt to not rip your throat out with my teeth before you've had a chance to explain why you would end this man's life.

And then, afterwards, I will make it quick.

[His golden eyes flash dangerously.]

If you don't step forward within the hour, I will find you, and the one thing I can promise is that your death will be agonizing and slow.

[More tears escape his eyes as his rage begins to give way to grief and he cuts off the video.

The make-shift wall he'd built from rage and pain broke and grief flooded him, causing him to soak the once warm and supportive shoulder he would lean against. Brokenly, the vampire sobbed and cried out, the pain in his heart too much.

He knew, he knew this wasn't permanent. Jacob would be back....but that didn't matter. It didn't change the fact Johnny had failed the one person who mattered more than anything ever. He had failed his one Saving Grace.]

[Murder is becoming more than common in this little city, isn't it? Darkleer's hasn't been oblivious to it. He wonders if it signifies anything at all, the slow ascent to a full-out war, or if it is simply a string of mindless murders.]

[Either way.]

[Sola's a late riser. Not naturally, just simply because living with nocturnal people has made his own internal clock sync up, so it's no wonder that he was still asleep when Johnny left early that morning for work. It's also no wonder that it's nearly noon when the Hylian finally rolls out of bed and checks the network over a bowl of cereal.

The cornflakes are still crunchy when Sola bolts out of the apartment and takes the stairs three at a time, racing to the tavern and the side of his matesprit. He knows Jacob, he likes him, and how anyone could do that is beyond Sola but his first concern, his very first priority is Johnny.

He bursts in through the front door, panting and out of breath, looking around the dim tavern hall for the vampire.]
