Anacosta Heights
Dupont Circle
Hawethorn Village
River Dale
Situated above the daily life of the city, Anacosta Heights is a tucked away suburb featuring extravagant neo-gothic inspired mansions. The inhabitants of this neighborhood often show their overwhelming wealth with sports cars lining their long, circular driveways, large pools, and manicured gardens. The homeowners of Anacosta Heights treasure their privacy as seen by the high iron gates to the security personnel present at every entrance.
Dupont Circle is a small suburban neighborhood settled within the serene portion of the southern portion of town. These four-bedroom, single-family homes feature back yards, porches, garages, and far more breathing space then the Village offers. This neighborhood often is more family orientated and even has organized events for children and the neighborhood as a whole.
Settled in the middle of downtown, Hawthorn Village consists of several victorian inspired row houses just off the main street. Due to it's convenience to just about everything, the village can be a tad expensive to live within. However, the residents of this neighborhood often have two to three-story townhouses, often with a one to two-car garage. Many of the houses feature bay windows and/or rooftop terraces with a small fenced-in 'yard'.
River Dale primarily consists of apartments that, despite their age and industrial appearing interior, still hold to the Victorian history that permeates the town. These apartments are often the cheapest option and sport scuffed, older wooden floors, open floor plans, visible beams, and the occasional brick wall.
There was something almost worse about the aftermath of what he, no they, had done. He had already seen Isolt off to her townhouse in the Eastern district only to return here. He must have stared at their remains for over an hour now, simply watching the cold pallor of her flesh for any hint of life still within her bosom. Tetradore shifted ever so slightly at the sound of a bird outside, his ears twitching. He knew well he had to do something about this. He couldn't simply leave it here for Isolt to handle when she woke the next night, not to mention the talk that leaving it might alone do to her business. Her employees would surely be showing up before night fell. Slowly, Tetradore rose to all four paws, making his way slowly around the room to fetch the other souls he would have to dispose of, entirely avoiding her. The fallen felines were the first to go, their bodies teleporting with him to the forest where their remains would be entirely inconspicuous, the animal life within surely would take care of their carcasses in good time. The three vampires themselves were hardly much more difficult if not for the amount of blood that had pulled around their bodies. Them he laid out on the deck of the Ark where he was assured no one would step and in a few hours time, the sunlight would alight them to be but ashes floating in the wind. And then, all that was left, was her.
Logically, the man knew well she was dead. He knew it was over, all of it and yet, another portion of him entirely failed to truly believe it. Fo so long she had been his own personal tormentor. She had destroyed his life and too his childhood in any which way she could. She had turned him into the man that he was today and now, now he was standing in her blood staring down at her vacant eyes that so heartlessly stared back up at him. He wanted to watch her burn, as if somehow that was the only way he could really be assured that she was dead and yet, where remained to be the question. He hardly wanted to take her back to the Ark, just in case there was some hint of life to her, he didn't want his entire pack to fall to her sway because of his mistake. There was but one building that came to the forefront of his mind - one that lacked any weres he was aware of. It was the only place that it might be safe to place her until the sun rose. A soft breath left his parted jaws as the feline tentatively reached out to her cold flesh, taking her with him.
In but seconds later their forms materialized on the roof of Samantha's apartment building, the man nearly shuddering as he stepped away from her cold, dead touch. There was something about just that brush of her flesh that stung. He paced for several moments, watching her once again before the man shook his head. There was still an hour or so till sunrise and somehow the thought of remaining within her presence set him on edge, not that he wasn't already. Instead, the were-panther turned upon his heels, slowly making his way down the steep incline of the fire escape to the apartment he himself owned. His claws clinked against the metal as he slowly climb down, his body still aching from the damage the feline had done to his underside. His back was still burned from that silver whip and around his neck, that spiked silver pronged collar was still fastened. It was amazing really, how he'd once been so used to this that even after a year of it's absence, the presence of that collar hardly even registered to the man.
Tetradore instead settled just outside of her window, his vibrant emerald eyes shifting out to the Western streets. He didn't want to wake her - not like this. Not with fear and adrenalin and paranoia still running so rampant within his system. There was no calming it, no being that perfect lake of emotion he so usually was. The anxiety alone was too much for him, the panther instead merely focusing upon each taken breath, attempting to find some stability in the knowledge of his vampire mistress' sheer closeness. He always knew she would come back for him, he just never thought he'd be alive to see it through the otherside.
