Ereinion kept his eyes locked on the four men approaching his position with swords at the ready, his own elven blade held in front of him as he stood calmly. In a burst of speed, the young prince rushed at the men and engaged them in a battle of swords parrying his blade to meet their thrusts. "Four to one? I like those odds." he said through clenched teeth, he ducked two of the sword as the sliced over his head and rolled out of the other two as they were thrusted downwards. Ereinion quickly got to his feet and span around the back of one of the men and severed the head from the neck, with a forward thrust his blade pierced the heart of another.
The roar of a large explosion rocked the night sky, the building across from Lestat's had been totally decimated by some explosive device and Ereinion found himself atop one of the men when both had been knocked over by the force of the explosion. "Night." he whispered into the man's ear as he sliced the tender neck and got back to his feet, Ereinion's eyes looked around for the female Dark Elf and couldn't find her.

Tiana had been to focused on the fight, and had no time to react to the explosion. Unfortunately, she had been a bit to close to the building to walk away from the explosion with out a scratch. Tiana was knocked to the ground, and felt a sharp pain before a large amount of rubble fell upon her. Buried under some rubble, she proceeded to dig her way out with the aid of her elven strength.
She climbed out of the rubble and coughed up a bit of blood before inspecting her wounds. There was a large gash on her thigh, as well as one at the bottom of her back. She seemed to have a few more scratched everywhere, and she noticed that there was blood trickling out of a wound on her forehead. "Lovely," the dark elf muttered. Just then a man came at her, hoping to bring her down, but she quickly pulled a dagger from one of her boots and threw it at him before he could get to close. She half walked half stumbled over to him to grab her dagger, and then moved to her sword, which lay deserted on the ground. Once she had grabbed her sword, Tiana simply sat down. Her body was rather unwilling to let her keep standing. "Ow damn it," she muttered.

Ereinion's head whipped to the side as the last of his attackers fled the scene, with quick reflexes he shot a single arrow taking the man's right leg out of play. Confident that he wouldn't be going anywhere soon allowed the young prince to continue searching for the Dark Elf when he saw her stumbling to a sitting position "Oi! What the hell happened back there? Sure i get the band of idiots, but a whole building exploding is just too much for a simple jumping."
Ereinion arrived at her side and lifted her up and supported her around his shoulders, with a small wince he started forward to a more secluded position between two more buildings. Ereinion set her down and sat opposite getting his bearings in order "Okay you're pretty damn good until an explosion catches you too close to it, i want your help but i wont beg for it. My ship is docked along the west of this isle, but i'm calling a building in central London homebase and if you're in then head there." The High Elf scratched out the location on a bit of parchment and handed it to the woman "By the by I'm Ereinion Ar-Feiniel and you already know I'm prince fo the High Elves, you have any more questions young one?" he asked with a smirk on his face at the young one barb.

Tiana grunted as he lifted her up, and simply let him lead the way to wherever they were going. She sighed as she was set back down. Her injuries were going to be a problem. While she listened to him speak, she drummed her finger lightly on the ground. Taking the piece of parchment when it was offered to her, she began to examine it.
Tiana glared at him at the young one remark. Sneering she shrugged. "I'm not that young. I'm 126 years old I'll have you know. My name, is Tiana Scaleon. I don't have any questions but one. Why in the world are you offering me this? I'm fairly certain high elves don't think highly of us dark elves. So why?"

"High Elves don't really concern themselves with the goings on of the world either, unless it effects us directly and the presence of demons within our territories places us in a very dangerous situation." Ereinion said calmly with all the air of a prince, he was raised in politics and knew exactly how to acheive the goal without mass amounts of bloodshed. The young prince reached into his satchel and drew out a small packet of something and threw it to the she elf "It's a medicinal paste, apply it to the wounds and it'll heal them. The stuff is so potent that it'll heal any wound you wont die from, as for your other question.......well i need someone more ruthless than i and someone equal to my agility."
The reference was to her ability to navigate the field of randomly moving lasers and infiltrate an ancient Vampire's lair, as a Dark Elf she also possesed powers he would not be able to wield. "Listen, for now i don't care about High Elven hate against Dark Elves or whatever, it's piss poor shit for all i am concerned about. This mission means more than that, our race as a whole is being threatened and i can't sit by on a throne and see that happen. So you in or not, if not then i'll have Lestat feed on you."

Tiana caught the satchel of medicine and studied it for a moment before opening and applying it to her wounds. The high elf hadn't entirely won her complete trust, but she was grateful for the medicine. An amused smirk spread across her face at the comment on her ruthlessness. Hah! Ruthless, she hadn't been called that in a while. Finishing up with treating her wounds, Tiana decided going along with his mission would be her best bet.
"Well," she said she she stood up. Leaning against the wall behind her for support she shrugged, "I suppose I'm in. If it's our race as a whole that's being threatened I think I can afford to work with a high elf. Don't get the impression that I'm dong this because I have to. I'm hardly threatened by that vampire. So, shall I meet you at the home base, or am I traveling with you?"

"No no...I have some unfinished business here in the city on the outskirts, but you may head to the base i set up in central London. We have it heavily guarded and so you'll need to know the procedure for entering, once in you'll be updated on the way in everyday as it changes to prevent intruders." Ereinion said with a sigh and got to his feet, the High Elf turned his back just so and popped a few vertabrae back into alignment.
Ereinion turned his gaze to the female elf and gave her a smirk that said enough "The address is 10 Downing Street and used to be the office of the Prime Minister when Britannia was still a world power to be reckoned with, now it belongs to us." he said as his eyes took on a far away look and abruptly snapped back into focus "Here, folow these commands of bird calls and steps on how to avoid the mines." The crumbled peice of paper flew to the Dark Elf and hit her arm and fell to the floor, without further explaination Ereinion took off out of the alley in a blur of speed leaving Tiana to her own devices.
