Crystal had wandered in the forest for a little while after her encounter with the vampire, trying to get her head on straight. Vampires were evil, right? She'd heard of enough Weres getting captured by them to know that they were dangerous, nasty creatures.
But that Vampire really hadn't been scary at all. She could tell that he was mischievous, maybe even up to something not good, and probably had Celyn now. That's what she'd wanted anyway. Celyn in the hands of the vampires. But the vampire had been fairly friendly with her. Appreciative. Flirtatious.
He'd complimented her, thanked her. He'd even kissed her. And she felt extremely conflicted when she'd realized that she'd enjoyed it. All of it.
Cry finally headed back to the spaceport feeling so confused. She wanted to see Terence. He would put her in her place, like she always did. He was so smart. He would tell her that the vampire was just tricking her, that she was stupid. It was all true and she needed to hear it from someone who meant something to her. Yes, that was it.
She tracked down the Kildeer in the hangar, surprised to find that it was open. That meant that Terence was inside! She felt her heart leap at the thought, and she excitedly hurried on board in search of him.

Chase was wandering from the bar and back to the Kildeer in search of his buddy for a chat. An open ship generally meant someone was inside, so like he usually did, he wandered in. Even if it was closed, Terence had given him the codes to get in. He started to check the big rooms Terence might be in and was starting to find it strange that no one was around. Surely he would have closed everything if they were out.
"Terence? You here?" He called and kept looking. Not even the crew was around. Something wasn't right.

Crys was poking around in Terence's room when she jumped a little at a new voice echoing through the ship. It definitely wasn't Terence's voice. In fact, it sounded like...
"Chase!" Crys came around the corner of one of the halls. Yup, there he was all dark and confused. There was a worried look on his face, which made her wonder if he knew something. "I don't think he's here. I can't find him anywhere. Or... anyone on the ship at all..."

Crystal?! What the hell was she doing here...? Now it was certain, something was not right at all. "How are you here, but no one else is?" He asked confused. "I mean, I know Terence and what's her face should be back by now..."
Terence never said anything about sleeping over at his families place, so he normally would have left and been back here by now. The other two didn't really matter, the merc guy was probably out drinking and the older dude was probably just out doing whatever. It made sense for them to be away from the ship. But there was no way Terence would dare leave his ship to this little thing.

"I don't know, I just kinda got here and the ship was open but no one else is here. Weird huh?" Crys mentioned. Though to be honest she was suddenly intrigued by the ship, since she was just realizing now that she'd never been on it alone. Terence always stayed close to her when she was on the ship. Probably cause he loved her so much.
"Oh, what's her face..." Crys' face dropped a bit. She didn't care about her. She just wanted to know where Terence was. "...I think I heard she got eaten by vampires or something. That's just what I heard though... cause like, I wasn't there or anything..."

Chase noticed her facial expression change at the mention of Celyn. Clearly she had been jealous of her before but... Wait. Eaten by Vampires? Chase's expression went from confused to completely serious in an instant at her last comments. She wasn't good at hiding things at all.
"What, did you do?" He asked sternly. If this Vampire story was true, and this little monster had something to do with it... well it was no wonder Terence wouldn't be in his ship. Chase himself wasn't exactly completely trusting of the human girl but he'd never toss her to the vamps, hell if anyone was gonna get handed over he'd probably make it that merc guy.

"What did I do?? What do you mean??" Crys yelped defensively, slightly panicked. "Why do you think I would do something??"
Crys inched towards the door, hoping to get away as soon as possible. Chase wasn't dumb, but she hadn't thought he would figure anything out so quickly, if at all. Was she that obvious? Suddenly she was wondering what would happen to her if anyone found out what she'd done. But no one would find out. Not if she didn't say anything. Celyn was surely dead by now and couldn't tell anyone either.

It was the fact that she had tried to defend herself so suddenly and disappear at the same time that made it quite clear that she was hiding something. Chase quickly put an arm out so she couldn't leave. "If you have any part in an event that results in that girl being tossed to Vamps, and Terence finds out, He will never look at you again. Ever..." He glared.
"Now, if you'd be so kind as to tell me what exactly you did..." He slowly backed her into a corner. Good old intimidation, he was good at it. He needed information from her and quick. It could give answers as to where everyone else was as well.

"I-I..." Crys stuttered, backing away from Chase as he walked closer. He sure was intimidating when he looked at her like that, with his big ol eyebrows and intense, dark eyes. She had no doubt he meant business.
Should she tell? She wasn't sure. She didn't think Chase would hurt her, but could she handle losing Terence? Probably not. But she couldn't turn back now. Chase knew she'd done something. "...w-we went for a walk... and I kinda... lost her... near the vampire territory..." she eventually blurted out. Well great, Crys, you're doomed now...

Chase stared at her for a second. It was a shame really, she had such a pretty face, but such a twisted head. But if Celyn got lost, she wouldn't last long alone. If Terence knew, he'd be right out there after her. Chase knew what went down last time Tere was at La Notte and shuddered at the thought. He needed to find out what was going on.
He moved quickly towards the ramp of the ship, not saying another word as he pulled off his shirt and changed while he ran, kicking off his pants. Even if Terence wasn't out there, if he could bring the human girl back... Maybe he could spare some drama with the crew. He headed directly for La Notte at a steady pace.

Crys was honestly surprised when he didn't say anything to her, but ran off instead. She breathed a sigh of relief as he disappeared, and then sank down to the floor of the ship to compose herself.
She was sure to get it when they got back, she realized. This plan really hadn't worked out how she'd hoped. She'd certainly gotten the human girl out of the way, but at what cost? Crys decided then to make herself scarce. With any luck, it would all blow over and everyone would laugh about it later. Maybe.
She scrambled to her feet and quickly hurried off the ship with intentions of going off somewhere deep into the forest for awhile where no one would find her.
