Looking up she noticed that Jan was right. Slowly rising she gave him a look that was both apprehensive and frightened. her hands moving to the diklo wrapped about her waste, slowly unwinding the long scarf.
She edged towards one of the windows to look out. "You right...something is wrong..." It was too quiet, there should be noise outside, voices, the sounds of the carney going up.

The silence is suddenly broken by a loud banging at the door. It sounds like someone is trying to break through rather than knock.

Jan jumped and looked around frantically.
"Is there another way out of here?" he asked, sounding a little panicked. As she unwrapped the scarf, he looked around for something to use as a weapon.

"The back..." she whispers, scooping up her cards and dropping them in the bag. She couldn't leave those behind. Holding the Diklo tight in one hand she held out the other to Jan, to lead him to the back. She was trying to be as quiet as she could, something told her both their lives were in a lot of danger at the moment.
Simeon had a false floor in the back room for emergencies like this. Along the way she could grab one of the silver daggers for Jan. And hopefully they could both slip out and away.
* Diklo is a long scarf with bits of sharp metal at the ends

Jan followed her, taking the cue from her and being as quiet as possible. Whoever it was at the door was really intent on getting in. Jan hurried up and as soon as they'd both disappeared into the back, a loud crash told them the door had been broken through.
They could hear men's voices on the other side, searching hastily. Jan whispered for Khristina to hurry up, then followed her out of the trailer through the trick floor.
"I think we better run!" he said.
*Oops, sorry.... Edited.

Nodding "I heartily agree." she said as she took his hand and began to move away from the trailer as fast as she could. Her eyes kept darting about, trying to figure out what was going on. Where was everyone?
Keeping to the shadows as best she could, she tried to move as fast as she could, but to run blindly could be trouble, so from shadow to shadow she darted. "Any idea who that was?" she asked.

"No idea," Jan whispered, wracking his head to try and think who they might be. But then they had so many enemies in this city. "I could hazard a few guesses, but if I'm right then we really don't want to be caught... where is everybody?"

Jan's words are cut off abruptly as something ploughs into him. Seconds later, Khristina too finds herself lying on the floor, slightly disoriented and not quite sure how she got there.
She can't really make out what hit her, but it seems to have a human form, and shining bright yellow eyes.

She struggles under what ever has her, wishing she hadn't given the silvered blade to Jan. Not sure what is going on elsewhere, she screams. There are kin about, and they know how to deal with werewolves...if they were close by, and alive.
In the mean time she tries to drive her knee or leg up into what she hopes is the creature 'privates', and incapacitate it, if briefly.

As Khristina's knee moved upwards, the 'creature' grabbed it quickly. It's reflexes were inhuman, and it moved so fast Khristina was almost sure it knew what she was going to do before she did it. It pushed her leg down with such a force she felt it snap, and a searing pain jabbed her knee.
Her assailant raised a long finger to its lips as if to shush her before she could scream any more.
Khristina was sure there were others about. She could hear them move and see their shadows, but she could neither hear nor see any sign of Jan or the other kin.

As the pain shot through her leg and she wanted to scream, she thought for sure she was going top pass out. tears filled her eyes, and she nodded the fight taken out of her. She tried to look about, to see where Jan was...or anyone for that matter, but was now afraid to draw attention to herself.

Just as the creature bent over and reached out to pick her up, a large black wolf rammed into it and knocked it over. The creature screeched. This was the second indication, apart from the eyes, that it couldn't possibly be human. It sounded more like a wounded bird of prey than a human being.
In the darkness, the screams slowly died away as the creature choked under the wolf's claws.

Danny straightened up and shifted to Glabro. He was a large and wild-looking man in homid anyway, and in Glabro he looked nothing short of feral.
He looked around. He knew there were others, so he moved quickly over to Khristina and gave her shoulder a gentle shake.
"Are you alright? Can you stand?" he asked quietly, speaking in a whisper as not to draw attention to their location. "Where's Jan, didn't he find you?"

It was all happening so fast...one minute there was this creature...and then it was gone. watching the other garou as he shifted and then moved over, She blinked dazedly at him a few moments, pain and shock warring in her.
"Jan...he was with my a moment ago..." she whispered her voice trailing off. she tried to shift her leg, and the pain almost made her black out. "No...my leg, it's broke."

Danny looked down at her leg and shook his head quickly.
"Healing bones is beyond my abilities, but someone at the Caern can surely help," he said. "Meanwhile we can tie it into a splint so we don't cause further damage when you move. I'll get something from one of the trailers, but you'll have to stay here. Here take this."
Danny handed her a knife. Upon further inspection it turned out to be the very knife she'd given Jan just a few minutes ago.
"Someone must have dropped it... if anything happens, scream. I'll sniff around for Jan..."
Danny walked off into the darkness, moving silently and looking around for Jan.
