Caught in the Act | Jo & Jake
Jo took a deep breath, the stench of death, blood, and burnt flesh filling the air. It had been a long tough night. It started with tracking the rugaru into an abandoned building, and ended with the monster dead... but in the middle was a fight that left Jo covered in blood. Thankfully most of it wasnât her own, but she was left with a charred corpse she needed to dispose of.
Taking a deep breath, she rubbed at her cheek, smearing dirt and blood across her skin, taking a moment to compose herself before considering her options. She needed to clean up and skip town before law enforcement showed up, asking questions she didnât feel like answering...
Thankfully the dank warehouse was full of all sorts of hidey holes and Jo shoved the body into some shaft in the ground, perhaps a dried out well, and poured the rest of her gasoline on it, dropping a flare down the shaft to burn the rugaru to a crisp. Satisfied with her work, she turned to head out of the building when a noise drew her attention. Head snapping up, she drew her pistol in a flash, eyes focusing into the darkness, having to adjust after the brightness of her makeshift funeral pyre.
