Crowboy vs. Car People - "Fack ya, skinny!" Chloë shrank into uselessness, somewhere behind Ru. As Ru's face came forward, it got a big punch, and he fell back, bouncing off the dashboard again. The baldy sprouted vicious looking claws and readied to strike! Ratpackerz- "Hahaha! Violence!"
Babette was getting the rough treatment, when something drew everyone's attention, flying in over the car.
Demetri- "Skeek skeek skeek!" It turned into Demetri...
Demetri- "I suppose you scoundrels didn't know these youths were in The Circle."
Ratpackerz- "No!"
Demetri- "The penalty is still the same."
It was one of those moments when everyone was standing still but everyone also knew things were going to explode into motion. Inevitable change. Any words or actions from the kiddies? None from Chloë.

Ru- After the initial blow, Ru's false bravado was completely gone, and he slunk back from the Crowboys, but not far back enough to expose Chloe. "Uummphhh." "DEMETRI!" He was just about to get his ass handed to him, when the man of the hour arrived, and thus he became all smiles again. "Thank you Demetri.."

Chloë - while clearly favoring this situation over its immediate antecedent - was not as enthusiastic at the arrival of a powerful elder vampire type. Chloë- "Uhh-uhhh-uh..."
Demetri- "You're welcome, Ru."
Ratpackerz- "*run for they lives*"
The crowboys broke ranks and fled every which way. One turned into a crow and flew away, clearly not a talent the others possessed. The others split up, hoping the confusion that caused would save their bacon. But lo, Demetri leapt down and kicked one into the air (the one that had punched Ru), where he caught him by the leg, and took off.
Demetri glided over the ground, smacking the crowboy's head on the curb and a post as he went, then zipped up the side of a building, slapping the flailing body behind him all the way. Just as he disappeared over the top, he tossed his victim over the corner of the building. The young vampires could see it falling end over end into the street some fifty feet from where they stood.
A moment after the shock of that vampire's flattening, Demy appeared again nearby. Demetri- "Now, shall we make this a hit and run and depart?"

Ru- "Yes, we should. I think the car is pretty messed up... They just...completely destroyed us, what can we do about it?' Ru seems happy despite everything, and has no sympathy for the Crowboys whatsoever. He considers hugging Demetri, but decides against it, and opens the door the car door for him. "Alright, open."

Chloë had a rather different reaction to the big show...
When Demetri grabbed the crowboy and started to drag him away, Chloë- "*GASP*"
When he dragged the bald vampire over the building and out of sight, Chloë- "ohmygoodness"
When the crowboy's limp body spun off the other side of the building like a starfish and started to plummet, Chloë- "Ahh?!"
When the vampire's body smacked the ground like a grape, Chloë- "ughahno!"
When Demetri appeared out of nowhere, Chloë- "yipe!"
Demetri noticed her freaking out, and clearly did not think they had time to calm her before the police arrived. Demetri- "Hm. Ru, you'll have to drive."
He stepped into the seat Ru had offered just long enough to reach over to the driver's side and lift Chloë completely out of it. He put her down gently but swiftly in that seat, then stepped around to the front of the car. ((Did Ru get behind the wheel? The car still seemed to be enmeshed in the side of the crowmobile and Demetri wasn't in it yet.)) Chloë- "S-sorry I'm sorry!"
((One Ru post is OK then we should really have one from DKender before moving on.))

Babette also experienced a roller coaster of responses to Demetri's kickassery.
During the crowboy dragging scene:"Oh." When he went up, up, and up:"What ..." And then the fall happened:"Uh." SPLAT: "My goodness!" She hopped into the back of the car and put a spider-spider spidery hand on Chloë's shoulder."Go to your happy place, Darling, this world only disappoints. But thank you, Demetri. By the way, do these attacks happen often? Should I pen them into my calendar?"

((Let's say this has Ru at the wheel, Chloë shotgun, and Babette rear passenger side.)) Chloë- "Eeh, thank you Babette - oh!"
The car jumped slightly as Demetri pried it free from the side of the crowmobile with his bare hands, as easily as someone ripping apart two telephone books that had been glued together. Ru was free to drive, and heard sirens approaching in the distance. Demetri leapt into the back seat next to Babette like some kind of magic guy. Demetri- "Now that they know the new vampires are Circle, I wouldn't expect to get much more grief. Well, at least once word gets around."

Ru- "I have to wonder too. Maybe we should have taken your advice. I'll definitely study martial arts now. It must be a bother to have us calling you at all hours of the day and night." He considers, and settles back in his seat in the car. He had to admit, it was nothing like what he hoped a confrontation like that would be, but maybe next-time he'd get those crowboys.
For now he hoped these losers were very very dead.

Demetri- "Think nothing of it. I am glad to hear you considering the training. With enough dedication, you can outclass those unruly types before too long."
Chloë- "The police..."
Demetri- "We'll cross that bridge if we come to it."
Ru has the wheel. When your front end is smashed up, how do you drive away from a scene of chaos without getting pulled over?

Ru- Ru drives the speed limit, avoiding going either too slow or too fast, and makes a beeline for the mansion. This had all been a very unfortunate day, he had to admit, but maybe this was the key to a better night?
He tried not to make a fuss of any of that. Maybe the explanation that they had been attacked would be enough? He tried not to look too worried. Plenty of drunk drivers get away, after all.

((Sure, Ru would drive, and try to drive safely without going too fast or slow))

The rest of the evening went uneventfully... ((Return to homes as tagged.))
