"Rather unsporting to start without me." A silver chain darted from the shadows, attempting to snag Gene's arm and throw him off-balance. "Was hoping I could enjoy me walk, but we do what we must." Pulling on Silverline, Conor shaped the chain's sides to a sharp edge. "So what'll it take to break that skin of yours, reinforced by sin as it is? A chef's knife or a razor's edge? You vampires are all the same in your evil, but not in yer constitution."

Leonard's shoulder bashes into Gene suddenly, something Gene didn't expect. Gene takes the hit, and simultaneously deals a blow of his own to the arm Leonard exposed to attack him. Gene is knocked back a couple of meters, and he attempts to regain his balance momentarily. At the same time, Leonard would find that one of his arms was frozen solid, as though it was part of an ice sculpture. It seemed he would have to heat up his arm in someway soon, or fight without it.
Meanwhile, Santiago's sword drills into Shannon's shoulder, drilling deep past the muscle into the bone. She let's out an agonizing scream, "WRRYYYYY!!", before she looks towards Santiago and her eyes start to glow. Gene notices this, and he is momentarily distracted. Conor's chain wraps up Gene's arm while he is distracted, and the vampire's attention is directed towards Conor this time. He leaps towards the man, attempting to land on top of him!

Santiago lets go of PLVS, leaving some residual Spin energy in it so that it'll keep turning on it's own. He then steps to the right and ducks downwards while simultaneously attempting to strike Shannon's head with his other sword.

Leonard would look at his frozen arm. "Hm... You've frozen my arm."
He sets his hammer down, and releases the lock on the hammer, leaving the stone on the ground. He holds the mace in front of him and speaks, "From the remnants of life and death, there is creation." Just then, the perfectly spherical mace forms itself into a cross. He then holds the mace, now with a silver cross on the top, against his arm. With a bit more concentration, he channels the second scripture. "From life comes death." After saying so, a burst of fire comes from the cross, melting the ice and slowly fixing his arm!

Krew who had stayed back to avoid getting in the way of his attacking comrades, would rush to defend Conor. "I've got you! Legacy!"
Krew's Stand, Legacy, emerges like a pillar of smoke from him solidifying into a defensive shield to deflect Gene's attack. "My stand won't let such a careless attack through, creature of the night!"

Father Murphy smiled at Krew in thanks. "Thanks for the save... But I don't think he'll be getting much farther!"
Another portion of chain wrapped around the opposite leg from the chain that held Gene's arm. "If my anatomy knowledge is correct, a current running through one arm and into your other leg oughta pass through your coal-black heart! Let's see if you can take the heat!" Assuming he had formed a complete circuit with Silverline, the Irishman breathed in deeply in the way of Hamon and cried out, "Hell's heart, I stab at thee! Midnight Sun Overdrive!"

Gene smashed against legacy, flying back a few meters. Since Gene did not possess a Stand, he couldn't even understand what had happened to him. As Father Murphy sent hamon through his chain, Gene was lit up like a lantern suspended in the night sky. As he fell back to Earth, he knew he had to do something quick. He used his Vaporization Freezing Technique to freeze the blood in his veins, stopping any more hamon from flowing through him. He landed with a thud, and quickly got himself out of the chains. He looked towards Shannon; as Santiago ducked and attempted to strike her again, she let loose a powerful blow to Santiago's chest, throwing him back a few meters before his possibly fatal strike could land. She removed the sword from her shoulder, and before she could jump after him, Gene spoke up again.
"Shannon! Our work here is done, for now." He points towards the group with a grimace, half of his body charred. "This will not be the last you see of I, Gene! Away!" Simultaneously, both Shannon and Gene leap through the tree line, disappearing into the forest.

Gavlan marched forward, trudging through large amounts of fallen sticks and leaves. It looked as if autumn would soon be coming in this region, something which slightly amused him. He stared at the sky for a split second, gazing at the beautiful moon that almost engulfed the forest with its presence, despite looking so small and fragile in the distance. "I was born in Autumn as well...." He thought, remembering his introduction in the Church, as he quietly listened to the bushes and trees shaking due to the wind. After a moment of silence and peace, he started walking once more, thinking about the young girl he was searching for.
"How dare you insult the honor of a knight? A dishonorable madman with no accolades to his name, insulting an individual of pure heart such as myself? Excuse me, but I won't allow myself to waste my time on a bottom feeder such as yourself. Good day, Sir."
"A knight, huh?" He thought, as he started remembering part of his training in the past, when he was merely a child.
"Excuse me sir, but while I was training I heard two people around the Church talking about beings called "Knights". What are Knights, sir?" He remembered asking to his sword instructor during a break, when he was around nine or ten years old. "A knight? Well, knights are simply individuals with a great amount of courage and purity in their hearts whom share our same views! And because of that, they fight for us alongside soldiers, fighting for the right cause. Many knights were quite famous in the tales of old, some even described with superhuman capabilities! What matters however is their devotion to the Church and its ideals, since only a true, pure heart can see our motives!"
"But they were talking about foreign knights, sir. The ones that do not follow our religion. Are those knights noble as well?" He remembered asking with his naivety, as he also remembered the weird look the instructor gave him as he said that. "What are you saying, Gavlan?! Of course they aren't! They are pigs who shunned the Church's glory and decided to instead desecrate it with their Pagan religion and ethics....They aren't knights, they're more comparable to farmers..." His instructor said with a serious tone as young Gavlan looked at him strange. "But, aren't knights who fight for their own beliefs noble? Despite it being heresy though...."
"What has gotten into you, Gavlan?! Just forget about this and remember that the Church is the only organization in this world worth fighting for! All others are merely slaves to their greed and ignorance! Next time just ignore people passing by. Now, grab that sword and come at me!"
"Heh. "Greed and ignorance". He always knew what to say...." He whispered as he walked forward, before seeing two, seemingly human figures in the distance. "Well, I found them." He thought, as he accelerated his pace and started waving his hand towards them. "Coming back, are we? Well, looks like you managed to convince her, Duke..." He said, before abruptly pausing for a bit. "...That was your name, right?"

"Damn it... They've gotten away. We must go after them," yells Leonard.

Santiago had been knocked back behind some trees, out of sight. He walked back into view after a minute, picking up his sword. He shook his head silently. "We should wait for the others.", he said, flicking his sword at the air so as to clean off some blood.

"After the damage done, they're no doubt running back to their lair to recover." Legacy coils itself around Krews arm now that the enemy has withdrawn. "We have an advantage now that we've injured them, but they're fast, I don't think we'll be able to pursue. Hopefully they'll still wounded when we find them again."

"Don't count on it. In fact, we should probably get to that little hamlet nearby." Conor drew back Silverline into an arm-guard and brushed off his robes. "They'll likely be looking for blood to renew themselves with."

Duke smirked in a good-natured way. "Duke is indeed the name. Don't forget it. Or do. Doesn't make much of a difference to me." He gestured to Abigail. "Don't worry about her, she's fine now." Abigail crossed her arms and looked the opposite direction. Duke simply chuckled before saying, "We're getting back to camp now, feel free to come with us, Gavlan."

Santiago nodded. "Agreed. Mount up, gentlemen." He walked over to his horse, Castigo, and climbed onto the saddle. "I'll be waiting by the road, someone put that fire out before we go." He rode forward, and disappeared into the woods, heading towards the road.

"Shiza. You're right, we need to get there before too many innocent lives are lost." Krew cursed and mounted his steed. He would hang back and wait for the others to return and tell them they were going on the move. When they were ready to go Krew would snuff the fire using his Stand's barrier powers to contain the flame and starve of it oxygen, he'd then ride off after the rest.
