Family Business (attn: Dominic) 7/23/09 Posted by Jeremy Castro
Sabre pulled his Challenger into the parking lot of the zoo. It was just after sundown and he knew he had put this off for far too long already. He had to talk things over with Dominic. He slipped out of the car and the warm humid air warmed him a bit. He took a moment to take it in and feel it in his skin. That was what he liked about summer. The nights were warm and it made him seem warm to others.
He locked his car with the click of a button and started towards the entrance.He wondered how receptive Dominic would be to him after the heated problems of the weekend. As he entered the zoo he headed for his favorite exhibit, the wolf exhibit. He figured Dominic would be along eventually so once there, he took a seat on a bench and decided to wait it out.

Dominic began making his rounds closing off exibits as everything was closing up. Dominic felt an unusual presence. It was unusual for kindred to come here. Seeing Campbell he slowly approached. "I assume you aren't here to see the animals." Dominic watched Sabre. "Well I have work to do, but you can follow me. Just don't mess with the animals!" Dom proceeded towards a door between the exibits.

Sabre half smiles as Dominic spoke to him. It was better than the response he had expected. Albeit abrupt and to the point, but he figured there was no reason to sugarcoat anything. He decided to follow him as he spoke, "I figured after Sunday night we needed to work some stuff out. Things didn't end on the best of terms that night."

"Alright I'm listening." Dominic entered the wolf cage after checking the pack on his side. Dom called to the wolves. They came bounding toward him like they were his pack. Dom knelt whispering in the wolves ears one at a time as he took blood from each for testing. The wolves watched Sabre. Dom seemed to reassure the pack. "So who was ordering you around Sunday? You seemed to be playing a good lap dog."

Sabre raised an eyebrow as he was accused of being a lap dog. He shook his head a bit. "It wasn't anything like that. I wasn't taking orders, I was ensuring that vital information that I needed was secured. Sometimes, you have to do as others want to get what you want. You have to do their song and dance." He looks at the wolf pack and smiles, wishing he wasn't as offensive to animals as he was.
He sighs, "There is a bigger picture here and it has to do with the Monocle that she had mentioned. For some reason, some higher power wants me to find it. So I need the cooperation of the mystics and ghostbusters."

"Oh, so you were just trying to kiss some ass to get what you want. You had absolutely no concern for the wellfare of our clan mate." Dom put the vials in his pouch, then exited the cage and grabbed some raw meat for the wolves. He grabbed sabres arm and placed a few chunks of meat in his hand. "Give them their treats will ya?"

Sabre takes the meat and starts giving it to the wolves. As he does he talks to them via Feral Whispers letting them no he has no intentions of harming them. He gives Dominic a chance to calm down a moment before responding to what he had said, "Dom, I have every bit of her welfare on my mind, but, she is an elder and when she had stated what she wanted, I wasn't going to act against that. So I did what she wanted. Otherwise, I may have done things differently. But we will never know because she did state she wanted to go with Azrael. She was paying her debt and we had no right to interfere." As he hands the last piece of meat to one of the wolves he pets it on top of its head.

"Is that what you came here to discuss?" Dom looks back at Sabre as he begins adding something to the vials. "Because I do have a question for you. How well do you get along with Constantino?" He begins to shake the vials looking for a reaction.

Sabre shakes his head just shrugs, "I came here because I don't want any heat internally within our family. That's what is important to me right now." He watches what Dom is doing curiously, wondering what he's testing for. "As for Constantino, we get along just fine. Is there something you need from him?"

In the distance, near one of the aquatic displays, a few animals can be heard to stir in their sleep. It is only for a moment and then things go back to normal for this warm evening.
