"I say fuck the world and bring it on bitch." Then I let out a sigh, "But my instincts tell me, survival always comes first, Fuck it ok whatever...."
(Trust...no such thing...using each other...powerful, this deal is good, but don't know how I will be the one to come out on top....guess I wait it out)
I take a look at the little girl, "So, how young are you?" I say with a grin.

"Alright, that's one. And look at that, already making an effort to get along, especially with the one teammate that needs the 'partners'."
He keeps a sly smile on his face during the last part.
"And it looks like our Gangrel is making an effort too. But remember, wiseguy, no funny stuff, or I'll take care of you myself."
"What about you, girls? We need a team, so...in or out?"

I haven't moved from where I'm standing, and I'm a little nervous, but I hope it doesn't show.
"Okay, fine! I'll help out or whatever."

Alice looked at Graves with a face of distress for a moment, "Fine... whatever, I'll have good talk with you later... ".
She sighed, and tried to regain her composure, and achieved in doing so. After which, a somewhat cold look on her face had shown up.
She looks at Richter for a moment, and grins after hearing what he told her, "Victims you say? Sorry but I like to have my toys to myself.", she showed her tongue after saying so with her sweet voice, as if to mock him.

Graves claps his hands in delight.
"Alright, Nelly's in. Three down, one to go. I still didn't here any approval from you, Princess. What's it gonna be? Rot out there in the real world, or stay with us where you'll not only be protected, but also have the ability to grow stronger. Plus, for a Daeva such as yourself, being part of such a group definitely has..other benefits."

"I thought you got the hint, its a yes. But one more thing, what "benefits" were you just talking about?", her voice had a tone of lifelessness.

"Toys? I don't really share my bounty either. You even got the nerve to test my tolerance. I've still got to see all your abilities at work, which I don't doubt..."

"Something tells me that you doubt it though, but whatever. I could care less about you, for now.", replied Alice, to Richter.
She looks back at Graves, "By the way, I'm not good with being friendly and get along with such people... I'll try to anyway, but don't count on it.".

"Think of it however you like..."
I make my way to the Nosferatu...
"So, what's wrong with you? Nelly, was it? What's your side of the story? Care to give me some details, our old pal Graves didn't say? Odd seeing such a docile one of your kind."

Well...you're a Daeva. I saw what you're capable of, and I know that you'll have certain urges to fulfill such a vice. By benefits, I mean you won't have go through all the trouble of trying to find a worthwhile human to help you with that. We're here if you need anything at all."
He winks at Alice and gives her a coy smile, before moving his gaze to Richter.
"Easy with Nelly there. She's a recent one. Got Embraced a few months ago, and now her Sire's after her...poor thing...not too much to worry, though. If the Camarilla wish to enforce their laws properly, they'll be coming after him as well as her. If anything, they'll hunt him down first.
"Now, before we end this discussion for today, I'll walk all of you through some ground rules that practically every Kindred must obey...starting with the Masquerade itself."
Graves reaches into his drawer and searches for something.
"Oh, and Nelly? You're sword's over there in the corner. Pick it up on the way out."
Graves resurfaces and takes out four sheets of paper and hands one to each of the others.
"These contain the basic rules of survival when it comes to being a Kindred. On one side of the paper, you'll find the basic rules of the Masquerade. On the opposite, some simple personal rules on what to be especially careful of. I advise you to go through these carefully."

UNDERSTANDING THE MASQUERADE
The Masquerade is an organized campaign enforced by the Camarilla to convince people that vampires do not exist. It is the cornerstone survival strategy for Kindred. Without it, the kine (humankind) would rise up and exterminate all the undead.
The most important thing to understand about the Masquerade is how to actually breach it. In some cases, a breach is colloquially called an 'oops'. When a breach does occur, somebody involved will be punished, whether he or she caused it in the first place or not. Therefore, it is imperative that you do not, under any circumstances, violate the Masquerade, or get involved with someone outside of the group who does.
Generally, a breach consists of revealing one's vampiric powers and presence to a human. This includes, but is not limited to, using certain Disciplines, feeding on blood, regenerating, or anything else considered supernatural, in the presence of any human being. In short, if you have to act like a Kindred, don't do so when people are watching.
This should be a general idea of what not to do when living out your (un)life as a Kindred. Follow these and use your sommon-sense, and you should be OK.
WEAKNESSES: MYTHS AND TRUTHS
1. Garlic doesn't do shit. Period. Neither do 'holy objects'.
2. Holy water, or water in general, is just as useless, unless it's boiling, because really, that will hurt anyone.
3. Stakes are not that much of a problem. The only thing they're capable of is paralyzing a vampire for a period of time, and that's only if the stake pierces the heart.
4. The Sun. Biggest problem for vampires. Even the slightest exposure to sunlight will cause burns. Also, when the sun arises, vampires will generally go into a catatonic, almost slumber-like state. So yes, the myth of vampires being completely nocturnal is true.
5. Zombies and vampires apparently have one thing in common, and that's the fact that both have their biggest weakness lies in their head. A shotgun blow to the head, decapitation, or anything such, and it's game over.

"I can handle myself, Mr. Graves! I don't need to be coddled. But thank you for this nice pamphlet."
I walk to the corner and pick up my sword. Now I feel much more safe.
"And Rich, you've pretty much heard everything from Mr. Graves. I could tell you more about my Sire if you like."

"HaHAHAHA, I remember a human finding out who I was, she thought she could throw some water on me and escape! I let her live for for a little while...enought time for her to reach her house, then I found her with her boyfriend and family all hugging and happy that shes safe....that was a great dinner."
I crack my neck, and look at Alice
"Hahaha I like that attitude of yours girl!"
Then look at Graves once again with a grin "We are still allowed to get our own dinner right?"

"I don't know much about my Sire, actually. He never gave me his real name, only his title, "The Endless Steel Arrangement". In the short time I spent with him, he was a brutal, bloodthirsty man who loved to hurt others whenever possible. He gave me a sword and taught me how to fight and use my powers, but...after that, I just couldn't take it anymore and ran away from him. And, I don't need your help. I'm just here to work. I'll take care of him myself when the time comes."

"The Endless Steel Arrangement? What the hell? Doesn't sound like much anyway... Suit yourself."
I walk away, Endless Steel Arrangement, hmm... Doesn't sound like a big timer at all. But I'm not in the mood to think of anything right now... Graves, you son of a bitch... I'm sure the way I'm acting is going against Shirley's rules...
I just end up going to sit down on a chair and begin to try to relax. Feeling all their movements as if I was them...

"Hey, hey, people! What did I tell you? You're gonna have to start working as a team now. I'd take his advice, Nelly. You wish to deal with your Sire, fine, but believe me when I say that each and every one of you will need all the help you can get."
Graves starts to clear up all the documents on his, and speaks to Cross.
"And you. You seriously need to refrain from killing all the time. I know you have urges to satisfy, but please have some self-control. At least you were decent enough to remove any and all witnesses, but be careful next time."
He files the folders away and continues.
"Also, Cross brings up another good point. All of you will have to find your own sustenance. By that, I don't mean flesh. Just blood. Find someone, take them someplace dark and secluded, and just bite their neck. Remember never to suck them of all of their blood. And don't worry, all humans go into a sort of trance while being fed on in this state and never remember anything. Oh, and please! Use proper etiquette and lick the bite marks when you're done to remove them. Most Kindred nowadays can't even seem to remember that."
He looks around and sees Alice just sitting there, silently. He was wondering what was going through her head at the moment. He walks over to her side and places a comforting hand on her shoulder.
"You've been quiet for some time now, Alice my dear. Something the matter?"

After Alice hears Graves' reply, "So he's implying that I should have sexual activities with these people?! No that can't be right... it must mean that he wants to do me... well, that much has been obvious ever since I dealt with those two guards.", she thought to herself, "Right... ", replied Alice.
She takes a look at the paper, and silently reads, and absorbs all the information. She listened to what Cross said, and her only reply was, "Then you killed the family? Figures.".
After Graves asks her, "Out with it, what do you want?".

Ouch. I treat you harshly, you bite back. I treat you nicely with respect, and you bite just as hard. What gives?
Graves has a visibly pained expression on his face, as if he was truly hurt.
"I told you, you can trust us. And you're going to have to, believe me. And I saw the look you were giving me. I know you probably still resent me, but know that I really am trying to help. You will feel those urges soon. The main problem is, if you don't satisfy them, you'll slowly become listless and devoid of willpower. Likewise, indulge too much in your Vices, you'll slowly lose whatever humanity you have left. You need to keep this under check, and we're here to help in any way necessary."
He gives her a wink at the last part, but does a 180 by squeezing her shoulder gently soon after.
"Don't worry, sweetie. He won't get you," he softly whispers into her ear.

"My apologies... I'm just feeling a bit frustrated. I'll try to control my anger.", apologized, Alice.
"Now, pray tell, what would you like me to do, Graves? And when do I get to deal with him?"
