Wrestling werewolves

terryclothHad a session of Jen's game yesterday. To no one's suprise, the mystery monster turned out to be werewolves!
The boys started getting a little nervous heading over to Susan's place... what if she wasn't there? What if she *was* there, and somehow able to rip peoples' arms off? Maybe they needed a plan to confront her.
The plan they came up with was for the Star and Mr. Einstein to sort of pose as cops (specifically, pose as private investigators posing as cops) and try to get Susan to come with them peacefully like (perhaps by telling her, 'we have your car'). They also got vests and guns and stuff. Jack didn't know how to use any of that stuff, so he'd wait in the car for a quick getaway, or to nab her if she tried to run.
While they were driving around, the Star had a nightmare about the creepy Shroedinger chick threatening them. "She says we'll get hurt if we don't give up on finding this girl." "Well, we'll get hurt worse if we *do* give up. Sil can probably do worse than that institute."
The plan worked, kinda. Susan wasn't at home, just her stoned, loser, not-a-boyfriend-really who claimed not to know where she was. He told them that she worked for Genomer as an intern or something, and went to UW. When they mentioned that they had her car, he got really antsy and ran off to the bathroom to 'take a piss'. And some pills.
After that little break (the star and mr einstein used it to snoop around, but didn't see anything) he came back out looking even worse, managed to figure out that they were just PIs and not cops, and suddenly sprouted claws and fangs and tried to kill them. Bullets didn't seem to do much...
Jack heard the Star screaming like a little girl as the werewolf made him his bitch, and ran in to save his ass (passing Mr. Einstein, who was running with his tail between his legs). He got the 'giant dog' in a chokehold, and held him back for long enough for the creepy schroedinger chick to appear and fill him full of silver buckshot.
Then Einstein came back, driving their (stolen) car through the front wall of the house, to save the day. This attracted a *lot* of attention, as if the gunshots hadn't already, and they all got in and fled the scene.
The chick (Taylor Atherton, that was her name... they actually knew it already) called her friends and had them cover up the scene of the crime, and filled them in on what she knew, which wasn't much -- there were werewolves, basically, and apparently this Genomer had pills (which they'd found in the bathroom, while the Star was looting it) that turned people with recessive werewolf genes into full werewolves. Susan was probably another.
"Bush was right -- this human animal hybrid stuff is dangerous!"
One of Jack's friends crushed the way-too-hot car, and one of the Star's friends gave them a safehouse to chat in. They had Taylor call her friends on the police force (and hey, look, it was the Star's 'best buddy' Gaston) to send in a tip about Susan being the girl they were looking for, and where to likely find her. Figgered it'd sound better coming from her than from any of them, since she'd tipped them off before.
The next step was obvious -- get silver bullets. Jack made himself up a pair of silver knuckles, instead. Taylor thought he was out of his mind -- "You're going to PUNCH a werewolf? You saw the claws and fangs, right?"
The next step in the investigation wasn't so obvious. The cops had the best chance of nabbing Susan if she went back to her old haunts (or to school or work -- work seemed most likely, considering that was where she got her werewolf pills -- they'd found a bottle of them in the fuzzy dice hanging from her rearview mirror, when they went back to search her car again), and Taylor told them she'd have the institute talk to Mr. Legrecca and get him to accept them helping her out tracking down this Doctor Nitter who'd prescribed the pills in lieu of delivering him a werewolf to his office that would just rip his arm off.
Problem was, Nitter's workplace and home were both wrapped up tight. They stopped by Genomer first because it was closer, but didn't find out anything useful, except that there were a hell of a lot of people in on a Saturday. Including Nitter himself.
Since he was there, they went to raid his house, figuring if he was a mad scientist he might have some secret underground lab or something. Of course, it didn't take long tramping all over his lawn and cutting power lines and crap before his security company showed up to see what all the noise was about -- they all scattered and hid, some better than others.

Won't be playing next week, and the week after that we're moving to Tuesday so that Ed can show up.
