[Seeing the policemen, Mikus let out a painful shriek. The sight must have been horrifying. The spike through his chin could be seen when his mouth opened, blood tripping more rapidly. It hurt. Everything hurt like hell, but he played it up. Putting on a show for the scared public watching them, forcing Elias into a even worse situation. Mikus’ eyes gathered with tears, adding more blood to the scene. He knew he was not going to die. A vampire could not die simply from blood loss, but Mikus could feel his contentiousness slipping away. The satisfaction however was so good. Black eyes flashing over to where Elias was hunched over, Mikus couldn’t help but gloat on the inside. He was able to push Elias this far, and it was magnificent to watch. ]
H-hr-help m-m-me… [Mikus pathetically stuttered out towards a policeman, playing the helpless victim he clearly wasn’t.]
[The scene unfolded, and beyond his own intense douse of pain, Eli knew the satisfaction he gained from doing this wouldn't last as he might have hoped. Not when the town turned against him like this. It had been the same in Seattle. He shouldn't have done this. Given in. The world saw him as weak before, but now he truly was, publicly shaming the demon above him. Getting even? Nothing good ever came from that. He'd always known, better than any witch in this cursed town, and how ironic that out of all of them he'd have to pay the punishment. He could feel the glee radiating off of Mikus. Always. No matter what you did. Mikus always got the better. He didn't allow the dread he felt show on the outside, he lay there, strong. Eli didn't speak, He went through the motions he knew to hold his wounds best he could, but the shock... it was setting in. He almost died, just like his dad had, maybe it would be better if he had died like Daniel Matrim. The police came in dozens, pushing away the crowds, and Eli heard countless slurs towards him. The ambulances arrived and they were moved, Elias lost consciousness from blood loss as soon as they were moving.]
