"According to Jess, Jona is in the garage. He's got some trouble with him; three people around him. We've been coming up with a plan to get him out. Good thing you two showed up, we could use the extra help.", Adran whispered.
Adran then voiced them an idea he had made while they were sneaking over, "If Jona is injured, Jess, myself, and Katrine can attract their attention and engage them hand-to-hand. Em, you can get Jona out as we distract them. If they happen to be humans, this should be easy. If they are fomori or worse, I hope you can lead Jona across the Gauntlet. Getting him to the Umbra and healing him if need be should be your first priority. If you and Jona feel up to it, you can come back to help us out, which we might need. If we botch this up, getting your pack out is first priority, as the caern will need healers. All that remains is to remember the high ban. Glabro should be used during the fight." He finished and added, "Any questions, or any ideas you think would be better?"

Jess glances up as Adran starts speaking, then starts to look more and more annoyed as he carried on. "No, there are three people in there total. One looks like Jona, the other two I don't know, and I can't see the kin. Might be one of the other two, so I'd rather not go in and start breaking people at least for a few seconds. The bigger one's on the far side." She looks up at Katrine and makes a decision. "You go for the bigger one, Adran go for the smaller one. Em get to Jona, he's at the back. I'll try and figure out what the hell's going on and jump in where I'm needed."

The tension was thick; she slipped her hand down her bag to find the end with the handle, before pulling up, the sword wrapped in blanket and bag, could make a descent club after she shifted into Glabro. With the reply “No problem.” And the last details in place from both Jess and Adran, she shifted up into her Glabro form. Making sure the others were with her, moving as close up to the garage, before hitting it and the big fella that was mentioned, clubbing his knee with her bag.
(Sneak till spotted, attacked or up at the garage door, then rage to either reach the big guy or extra hit at his legs.)

Em was about to asked if Jess had sent cat over to confirm any of this and if any one had tried to test the area for any hint of the Wyrm. Then Katrine started off, and all she said was "I guess not..." Though a few options did come to mind, this really was no time to debate, she just hoped they were not about to make a very huge mistake. Making a slight wave of her hands she let the others know she would be hot on their heels and after Jona while they took care of the rest.

Most of my plan is still intact, but I hope Jess will give me some credit for my work on it. Adran thought to himself. He answered Jess with, "Alright, but if things get really fubared, at least give us some help getting out."
Adran moved up towards the garage as silently as possible. As soon as he got close enough to the door, he charged and whammed the smaller guy with his big, meaty, fists of doom.
(sneak up if possible, punch, rage to punch. If getting close to the guy is an action, only rage to punch.)

Jess grows to Glabro and rounds the corner a little after the others, quickly identifying the key points of the scene. She looks to see what state Jona is in, then to see if either of the men is armed, and how they react. Keeping her wits about her, she steps into the garage as well, ready to ju,p in to assist wherever it becomes apparent she is needed.

The garage door was wide open, although the lights were out. Adran and Katrine managed to sneak up to the door without being interrupted. But then, as Jess had warned them, they were waiting for them inside.
They rushed in together, Adran with his fists and Katrine swinging her sword.
There were two men inside the garage. To call them 'big' and 'small' was a bit misleading, however. They must have shifted to Glabro because even the smaller of the two was bigger than either Adran or Katrine. Adran ran at him swinging his fists and he, in turn, held up his own hands to protect himself. He was a little too slow, however, and Adran managed to punch him in the face and break his nose. "What the fuck!" he shouted, pinching his bloody nose with his fingers.
Katrine swung the sword at the bigger one, but he was ready for her. He blocked her swing with his large, muscular arm and twisted her sword-hand around so it was behind her back. With his other hand, he grabbed her other hand and held her firmly.
"Back off," he said to Adran. "Please!"
There was something frightening about the way he said that.
Jess and Em could see the rest of the garage. Jona was lying in a corner, covered in blood. His face was very white, and he wasn't moving.
"He fucking broke my nose, the little bastard," the second man whined, holding his nose still although it had stopped bleeding. In Glabro, he was tall, ugly, and blonde. His friend was dark, big and strong enough to keep Katrine in an iron grip.
"Shut up," he said to the blonde man before turning to face the group of intruders. "So, which one of you is Jess?"
Kat is grappled. You could get to Jona in a turn, but you'd have to run past the two men. If you choose to attack, you will automatically lose initiative so just declare your actions.

Em's eyes flickered back and forth...seems they were at a stalemate and no one wanted to step up. Putting her hands up and in plain sight, to show she was no threat, she made a slight step forward. "All right...seems we have a situation here. We want our freind..." and she nodded towards Jona. She kept her voice low and lulling, trying to make it a mesmerizing soft monotone, as she tried to get their focus on her. This way, if her gift worked, they would be easier to catch by surprise by Jess and Adran.
((First off of high and magnificent ST, Sense Wyrm...and also using persuasion to make them see my way of thinking.))

Jess has trouble looking away from Jona. With some effort, she looks up at the man who is speaking, anger and fear both apparent in her eyes. "I am. Who the hell are you?"

Damm, she felt herself being turned around, helped by the momentum she had added by charging the big guy and now she was in an iron grip, at least she had not lost her weapon. They where werewolf’s too, that meant that they could equal the score easy, not holding back, but it seemed odd that they wanted to talk and not fight. She got a look at Jona and he was in bad shape, but still even if that thug broke her arm, she still is able to fight. For now she remained calm, she could have to keep him busy enough for at least one of the girls to get to Jona.

Adran had an idea of insulting the two just so they would lose their cool and attack him, but since Em was doing the opposite, Adran held his tongue and waited to see how her strategy panned out before using his. All he did was keep himself ready for a treacherous attack that might come from the guy.

"Charmed to finally meet you," the larger man said to Jess. However, when Em proved she was more willing to discuss things pleasantly, he focused on her.
"I'll let her go if your friend promises not to attack again," he glanced at Adran. "I hope you'll be more reasonable than your other friend. If you give us what we came for, we'll go away."
He took a couple of steps back, deeper into the garage and out of sight of anyone who might be watching from the windows of other houses, or any passing cars. The other man wiped some blood off his face as his nose healed itself. He kept watching Adran as if expecting him to start attacking again any second.

Taking a deep breath, Em made a careful sweep of those assembled with her eyes, trying to gage emotions. Now that they were talking, which it seemed the two strangers wanted to do, she was hoping no one did anything stupid. She gave Adran a pointed look, telling him with her eyes to back off, for now. He could stay as alert as he wanted, cause she had a feeling no one was going to relax and be all cozy no matter how nice the words where. And if they did end up fighting it be a lot nicer if Katrine was a bit more free to move. Besides...something didn't feel right about the situation...there was taint of the Wyrm, but not as strong as if the two were servants of the Wyrm. And there was something about the house as well that was making her uneasy, the sooner this was dealt with the sooner, they could find out what was going on.
"Talk...that we can do. As for what you want...that depends." She wasn't about to bargain without knowing what was being bargain for.

I can beat you, that you are going to let me go you bastard and then I kick every square inch of your butt, Katrine thought to herself. Still this was not her pack and she was going to go with whatever Em and Jess decided, Jona needed help and they where wasting time. Getting Jona, dealing with this two apes and getting back to the caern, that was what was important.

Jess can't wait longer. She gives Em a nod to carry on talking and moves to get to Jona. If these bastards wanted the chance to leave in peace, he'd better still be alive.
