Antoine stands unmoving and unblinking for a long moment. His hands open and close three times, then he growls, "Ask him where his master is now."

*******************************************

Karl turns back away from the church, leaving Anna and Gave and Victor to retrieve the tracking device he had left on the van of the ghouls. The return to the motel is not much more than a fifteen minute walk, though if Karl decides to hurry he will of course get there faster. He had dropped his Obfuscate to converse with Anna and the others back at the church, though it seemed like he might need it.

Stopping almost two blocks away, Karl could see the flash of the blue and red lights between the buildings; maybe ambulance, maybe cop car. He could hear the commotion of gathered pedestrians, people asking each other what had happened. Even this far out, he could smell the spilled blood, having grown more metallic as it dried and oxidized with time... an the distant but cloying smell of gunpowder. They had taken care of every Ghoul they had crossed... in fact Karl and Gabe had personally executed those down but not dead; but who knew who, or what else was watching now.

It would of course be a straight shot down the two blocks and around the back of the motel to the parking lot where their van had been.
