Rippers: Four of Diamonds <--- Ripper victory
Andrej, Victoria Jo Owen and Jaime Lott have identified their beast, a werewolf. They've tracked the creature to its lair. Now how do our brave Rippers deal with such a beast?
Harry, Tristan, Shay Mckenzie and Reggie Wilder arrive at their destination, an ancient Monastery said to be one of the first built in Ireland. An almost as ancient Monk by the name of Brother Bartolomew is the one that they seek. What will they ask the Ancient Monk?
Carl, Rasheed, Justice MacDonald and Skye Duncan now have an idea about where the escaped inmates are located. Do they investigate themselves? Or do they report this information to the authorities?
The Russian removes his pistol from under his coat and makes sure it's loaded with silver. "Jo and Jaime, if you are carrying guns tell me. I have more silver bullets, and also a silver dagger. I am thinking, though, that we should shoot it and then let Victoria close with it. She is very dangerous in close quarters, and if we can wound it first so much the better."
Victoria breathes heavily, and for a moment its not sure if nervousness or excitement is coursing through her body. Then she looks around again and snaps the claws out to their full length and narrowing her eyes out at the forest. "Aim for the legs. If you slow it down, it'll make my job easier. Hard to dance with no kneecaps." She looks at the two novices, and her voice is hard. "Once it gets in close, stay back. I don't want to drag your mangled corpse back with the werewolf's." After a moment, she stalks forward toward the lair of the beast. "You three, try to draw it out with gunfire. If you're lucky, you'll wound it. It'll think you three are an easy kill, and when it tries to close the distance... I'll be waiting."
