Fio and Radley arrive first, and notice Elana arriving immediately after. (Devi is still with the group). They catch up briefly, sharing Spencer stories. Alaistar arrives. Radley asks Fio if the shadow wall and shadow on the door during the meeting are Spencer’s powers. Elana and Fio are sure that wasn’t Spencer. When Elana asks if there was a fight, Radley explains that Spencer shot her through the chest and also mentions that she keeps feeling that “something” is watching her. Alaistar gets creeped out and checks with rune sight. Right in front of him, he senses something vaguely wraithlike (similarly to how Elana felt vaguely wraithlike before). Alaistar recalls that he felt two vaguely wraithlike presences in the auction house (one above the podium, one behind Elana).
Alaistar says “I think we’re being watched,” while raising his staff. He makes an explosion on the ground, and as that happens a loud clap resounds over the parking lot. The dust settles on nothing, and the characters look over towards the clap, seeing three black Cadillacs driving towards them. Alaistar says “whatever was watching us just took off”, and Elana replies “I wouldn’t worry about that one right now.” Fio jumps on the back of the bike, and Radley says “meet at the harbor”. Elana puts the paper in her pocket and tells Duke to eat it. Alaistar flips off into the air.
The bad’uns pull up on the opposite side of the parking lot, dressed in the same white w/red cross military armor which Elana’s pursuers wore. They open fire. Alaistar deflects a rocket into one car, Elena drives the jeep over the curb, Fio lances the front passenger-side tire on the 2nd car. One swordsman attacks Alaistar, another is coming towards the group. A fight ensues, and our heroes defeat the 8 attackers. Elana hits the black box, and texts Jeremy to tell him the porridge was sticky, the bowl needs cleaning, and the address of the park.
8:20 pm
Radley searches some of the guys, and finds a HUD/communicator, and a [[TheDropper dropper]] filled with two non-miscible liquids, one red, one gold. Devi sees the liquid vial as well, before Radley does. Fio jacks a white SUV. Elana and Radley take the VIN and the license plate from the bike. They drive north out of Rome, looking to find food and a bed. They take the opportunity to steal a blue SUV, ditch the white one in a junk yard (taking the license plate). Radley puts the communicator nearly on, but not completely. The HUD has 12 red dots, one of which lights up green as she puts the communicator fully on, and a voice asks her for status. She feints a dying voice, and says that the perps headed south. They see her vitals as good, and she cuts off the conversation and has Fio crush and dump the device. Alaistar calls Felicia, but gets a message machine. He leaves a message to call back They discuss the black shadow saving Fio/Radley, and they all conclude that it’s friendly. This prompts Devi to reveal herself, and the gang is united!
9:00 pm
Alaistar gets a ping, after meditating he shares with the group that the Guild is cleared, and the group is moving on to their next destination. They pull off, jack another SUV (a blue one), and split into two groups temporarily, until they ditch the car under the road, near the river.
9:20 pm
They take off in the blue car northbound. They discuss the dropper, and no one knows what it is. Devi asks about Tao, and Alaistar gives a dissertation on hollows and wraiths and shadows. They also discuss thresholds and where to go to look for safe housing. Felicia calls, and invites them to her apartment, but Alaistar refuses.
10:00 pm
They find an open barn, kill the car lights, and they drive into the barn and close the door. They cover their tracks, close the obvious doors and shutters, make two circles, and set up camp inside them. Alaistar does a ritual threshold in order to allow himself to heal.
11:30 pm
Alaistar hits the ground and goes into a healing slumber Elana and Fio sleep, and Devi and Radley are standing guard, and talking.
