A Very Long Night (WoD)

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: The next game started much like the first, but the tide changed with some 'lucky' shots. Brigid looked every now and then at Nara and winked when the others weren't looking ::

[Nara McKenna]

She blinked several times to get the sting away and wiped her nose and mouth while at the bar.

Then her ears twitched with that sense of displacement. That sense that someone or something was watching her. The Garou looked up and sniffed the air but winced. Damn beer was still messing with her nose and a casual glance around the bar produced nothing out of the sorts. Only a few people glancing in her direction and towards the pool table where the rest of the band were. That wasn't unusual.

Still.

Perhaps it was nothing, but she'll have to take a look later once her sense settle. Stupid Kevin.

She returned to the table and slipped off her jacket. It was really crowded now and all of the body heat was getting to her. There was also another reason, her bare shoulders revealed her tattoo. It was the symbol of the Black Furies and she wanted to know if there was any response from Brigid. Nara had good vibes from the girl but everyone can be played. Brigid's been playing it cool and not giving herself away. So either she was clueless to whom she was playing pool with, trying to scam them and knew who they were, or still trying to figure them out. Now it was time to quit playing coy.

The Garou sat down and watched as the game started. Brigid opened up with some serious shots that got her ahead pretty good. She caught the winks and chuckled. Kevin was getting hustled. Nice.

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: Brigid did catch the tattoo, and a glance from Nara, but she maintained her game face until Kevin was on his knees again. Happily, she took a seat and reached for a beer ::

[Nara McKenna]

Brigid noticed the tattoo but didn't do anything to suggest understanding. For someone so young, she was good at hiding things.

"Not bad. I haven't seen Kevin crying so much in a long time." Her jaw became tense as Ethan and Kevin started to rack the balls up again. "So who are you?"

The Garou decided to be more open about this. She needed to know what Brigid was doing here. Normally Nara was more slick about these things but something was telling her to figure things out quickly. The hair on the back of her neck was prickly. Something was wrong, but her gut said it wasn't Brigid. Whatever was in the club had given her the wiggins. But the girl was involved perhaps?

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: Brigid smiled warmly at the direct approach ::

"Wanna go for a walk? I need some air."

[Nara McKenna]

"Sure." She grabbed her jacket and slipped it on. "We'll be back in a bit. Make sure Kevin still has clothes on when I get back."

The Band laughed except for Ethan. He gave his friend a smile and a thumbs up when Brigid wasn't looking.

Nara rolled her eyes and caught up with the girl. As they passed through the club, she did a quick scan. That feeling was gone and she didn't smell anything out of the ordinary.

You're loosing it girl. Maybe you just need some sleep.

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: Brigid stepped out into the night air and was waiting next to her motorcycle. There were a few people drifting here and there, but no one to pay them any mind ::

[Nara McKenna]

Nara's eyes lit up at the bike and crouched down to take a real good look at it. "Well, damn. I hope I like what you have to say. I really don't want to hate you now."

[Brigid Cassidy]

"Hate me? Oh come on. I was gentle with the boy."

:: Brigid's bike was a vintage '60s Triumph Bonneville, in black ::

[Nara McKenna]

"I wasn't talking about Kevin."

Nara was too enthralled with the bike to really say anything else. This was a vintage model that was in pristine condition. There weren't too many babies like this anymore. Only bike enthusiasts or really rich folk could manage to snag one of these. It really trumped her Ninja ZX-6.

"Who'd you have to kill or pay off to get one of these?"

[Brigid Cassidy]

"It was a birthday present from the Mom." she beamed. If Nara was searching Brigid for lies, she didn't find one. In Brigid's mind, it was the truth.

"Do you ride?"

[Nara McKenna]

Referring to your mother as 'The Mom' was a bit weird, but the Garou didn't sense anything off about it. Or her.

"Yeah." She stood up and dusted some of the small pebbles that embedded itself into her leather pants. "Nothing as classic as this though. A Ninja ZX-6."

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: Brigid nodded with approval as she sized up Nara ::

"Sweet."

[Nara McKenna]

"Thanks." Nara crossed her arms as she regarded Brigid. She's met a few eccentric Mages and off balled Changelings, but the Garou could not figure this girl out if her life depended on it.

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: Brigid mounted her Bonnie and gave Nara an expectant look before starting it up ::

[Nara McKenna]

Nara quirked a brow and then slowly her eyes veered off to where her ride was. Now she could have easily walked down the half block and bring her around to ride with Brigid. But she had this feeling it wouldn't have been as much fun. As much as she was wary of what the girl was, she didn't have a bad feeling. If things got crazy, she was a Garou. Gaia was with her ... as well as her fang daggers ...

She walked over and slid in behind Brigid, grabbing onto her hips. "So, we're we goin'?"

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: Brigid looked over her shoulder ::

"Just a cruise."

:: Soon they were on the street. It was nice not having to baby the bike like she did when Kiddo was with her ::

[Nara McKenna]

Brigid definitely knew how to cut her ride loose. The night was also the right kind of chilly. The kind that felt nice against your skin without being so cold you were shivering. But that really wasn't too big a deal for Nara. She was used to it.

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: They came to a stop in the park, and Brigid grinned ::

"So, what do you think?"

[Nara McKenna]

She looked around and saw that Park District sign that said 'Oz Park'. Slipping off the bike, Nara extended her view and saw the tennis courts barely lit up by the street lights. A few teenagers were playing basketball at their court and a few other people were enjoying a night out walking their dogs or enjoying each others company.

Nara dug further and sniffed the air and tuned her hearing for anything suspicious. There was a faint scent of alcohol and perfume, some Chanel rip off. Hopefully the girl wasn't as cheap as what she was wearing. The conversations she picked up were nothing out of the ordinary. Few people chatting away on their cell phones, some pigeons, and the basketball bouncing off the court.

All in all. It was quiet.

"Yeah. It's nice." She glanced over her shoulder towards Brigid. "Are you gonna answer my question?"
