During the night, Will and Kate talk, and Sam searches for car parts and works to recover. There's a building on the waterfront in San Francisco, it used to be a fancy restaurant now its just a ruin.

At the moment, its a place to rest with smoke coming out of its chimney while inside Sam, Kate and Will take turns resting and recovering. Alcatraz is quiet across the water and Winter still lays over the city by the Bay.

(OOC: Open to any and all, who you get depends on timezone, so putting up now.)

Smoke. That's new.

Venom popped in just a few days ago, and this is the first sign of life he's seen thus far. Everyone else seems to be particularly good at hiding or gone.

He peers at the smoke from his spot on a nearby rooftop, his eyepatches narrowing. "Well. It seems we aren't nearly as alone as we thought. Perhaps we can finally find what happened...or at least find some entertainment."

After several days of wandering around an apparently deserted part of the city with absolutely no idea why, Venom is just a little testy. A brawl sounds like it could be fun.

And so with a thwip, he shoots off a webline and swings towards the restaurant's ruins, landing with a dull thud on what's left of the roof.

Sam looks up from his spot next to the fire.

Thudding noises aren't good. It means they've been found, and not necessarily by somebody friendly.

[hates-spiders.livejournal.com]

Venom is friendly! Just so long as you aren't harming the innocent.

Or wearing a red and blue webbed suit.

Or if you have tasty, tasty brains.

But Venom isn't stupid, either. And just because he can heal doesn't mean he wants to deal with the annoyance of having to heal in the first place. And so he makes his way across the roof, looking for a decent spot to peer in through.

Thump, thump, thump.

[will_scarlett]

Will was finally able to sleep at some point but the thumping wakes him up and he looks over to Sam and points up at the roof.

[broked-reality.livejournal.com]

"Get some iron, okay?" Sam whispers to Will.

[hates-spiders.livejournal.com]

The steady thumping continues as Venom heads over the roof, managing to avoid putting his foot through any particularly weak spots by sheer luck alone. The few moments of searching finally pay off, though, as he finds a good sized hole to peer through, crouching at its edge. He peers down, eyepatches narrowing. "What have we here?"

[broked-reality.livejournal.com]

"Oh, it's a creepything." Sam sighs. "Joy."

[will_scarlett]

Will's got the tire iron in hand and just looks up at Venom from the side of the hole,

"Aye, bloody ugly thing. Are ye one o'the Queens's?"

[hates-spiders.livejournal.com]

Well, now they're just being rude.

"We belong to ourselves, not some 'Queen'.. And we're afraid you're not particularly handsome yourself."

[broked-reality.livejournal.com]

"Don't listen to him, Will. We're extremely pretty." Sam says, gravely.

[will_scarlett]

That does get a grin from Will as he hefts the tire iron, its not a nice grin,

"Now ye'll be tellin' us who ye are else we'll be beatin' it out o'ye."

[hates-spiders.livejournal.com]

Venom grins right back. It's a talent of his, being able to grin like that.

"Oh, we don't mind answering that. We appreciate a good introduction." Venom suddenly jumps through the hole, landing with yet another thud on the floor below. The grin widens as he turns towards Will.

"We are VENOM!"

[broked-reality.livejournal.com]

Slow clap.

"Very dramatic. Five points for theatricality."

[broked-reality.livejournal.com]

The car is parked where they left it. Sam opens it up and starts working immediately.

He's barely been working for forty-two seconds when there's the sound of a horn in the distance.

[will_scarlett]

Will is close beside Sam with his sword ready just in case and trying to keep an eye on Kate and Venom.

[hates-spiders.livejournal.com]

Venom is less interested in the rest of the group than the sound of the horn; as soon as he hears it, he grins, looking around. "It seems we have company coming."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

Kate knew what that horn meant, and was already scrambling for a good vantage point as she nocked a couple of arrows on the bow string.

"On it." Dark look on her face as she waited for the oncoming attack. Firing as soon as they were in range.

[broked-reality.livejournal.com]

"Keep them off my back. My front, too, preferably."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye."

Will's got his sword in one hand the tire iron in the other and will stab and swing as they get closer.

[hates-spiders.livejournal.com]

"We'll try." Depending on the number of fairies, protecting Sam might be easier said than done.

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"They'd have to get close enough, and that's not happening, Sam."

[broked-reality.livejournal.com]

"Good." Sam frowns down at the car.

[will_scarlett]

Out of the ice, horsemen start to appear, Kate's arrows take down a few of them but not all.

Will swings forward with the tire iron to try and take down the first mounted knight.

He screams and falls while his sword leaves a long cut on Will's side. Five knights are bearing down on them, arrows already studding them.

[hates-spiders.livejournal.com]

Venom, meanwhile, focuses on attempting to trip up the horsemen. With a thwip webbing flies out of the patches on the backs of his hands, aimed at catching the legs of two of the knight's mounts. If he's lucky, the horses will be tripped up and throw their riders.

If he's really lucky, none of them will land on him.

Ok, basic arrows aren't enough, time for extra firepower. She still had the lighter from when she burned the dress, and had found some rags. She hurriedly wound some around a few arrows and lit them up to fire on some of the fairies further back from the main fray.

There were some shrieks as a few struck, and the flames caught them.

But then some flying ones started converging on her position.
