The Sanctuary Rebuilt: The rise of a Legend

Matta Walker had been sitting on the edge a clearing for the best part of an hour, waiting for his friend to return. He was thinking aloud "what am I doing here? I could be at home chilling and listening to music". when out of nowhere he heard a voice saying " but that wouldn't be much fun now, would it?". Lupus Forerunner stepped out of the shadows to join Matta. "What are we doing here?" Matta asked, "we're recuiting, and I think he just took the bait" replied Lupus. As he spoke a figure was moving across the feild ahead of them, the figure was trying to hide behind cover as he moved. The figure got to his target, a stray chicken hopping around near a few old books. He timed his moves and grabbed the chicken before it could escape, as he sank his fangs into it and started to drink it's blood, he sensed movement behind him. He whirled round to find Lupus and Matta staring at him. "hello, Professor Hellion. we come with an offer for you" Lupus said."you have no business with me, one eye, nor does your scared friend, now be off before I decide I want human blood instead" Professor Hellion replied between mouthfuls of blood. Matta was about to protest to being called scared but a look from Lupus silenced him before he could speak. "Now Professor, that's not a nice way to introduce yourself, perhaps I should start. My name is Lupus Forerunner and this is my .... apprentice shall we say" Lupus said tipping his head in greeting. "You obviously know my name but for the sake of manners, my name is Professor Nick Hellion. Scientist and Vampire" he said the last word with emphasis to try and stir a reaction but none came. "we have come to recruit you Professor, we need your help to rebuild the sanctuary and start a new order." said Lupus, Professor Hellion was thinking on his reply for about a minute when he said "It doesn't concern me, All I cared for is gone. you have no way to get me to help". "we have the name of the men who killed your family. as it happens they are the ones we are after at the moment. we could use your help professor."Lupus offered his hand, which was shaken by the Vampire. They headed off towards Lupus' car which was parked in a barn nearby. The car he had was a black mustang with a red stripe across the top, for a sports car it had enough room to fit the three men with more room for at least five more people. as they headed down the road, Matta decided to speak up "so where we headed next?" "we need to recruit one more person to the team, a women by the name of Csilla Shrowd. she is an old friend and a powerful sourceress" replied Lupus. it wasn't the answer Matta was hoping for but it made sense to get some more people on the team even if it was just one more. "are you sure it's wise getting this women, she has a bad reputation?" Professor Hellion added, he had heard of Csilla Shrowd but only in rumours and bad ones at that. "I trust her with my life, and that's all that you need to know for now"
