"...Well, since somebody else is doing it, might as well." Ali sighs, and decides to check a corpse. Mostly for wounds or a sign of what killed them, but also searching for anything useful, like a gun.

Staying Power also surveys the area, inspecting the corpses, but mostly the surroundings themselves.

Sam and Ali find nothing that would've be out of the ordinary for these people. Personal memorabilia, along with a few basic weapons. They also notice the cause of death seems to have been excessive blunt force trauma applied to very specific, vital areas.
Staying Power doesn't see anything wrong with the environment. The desert dunes and derelict buildings stand untouched by the carnage. That is until it notices the shadows shifting again, being directed behind the group.

Ali picks uup the weapons and stashes them just in case, as he gets up. "Hm... seems like blunt force to me."

"Shadows are moving again."

"Come out."

Goddamit, no cigarettes.
Samael thinks as he picks up a gun too and stands up, turning towards where Francesca pointed to.
"Points for your observation skill Fran."
He thanks her ... kinda.

The shadows behind them move in an unnatural manner until forming an enormous blotch on the side of the church. From that area, entirely concealed from the outside world and pitch black as the void of space, a figure walks out.
You can't make out much of anything from it's gait or shape. It seems far taller than you, sans for Ali. It's body is concealed in a heavy cloak. Even the hood does not reveal anything, cast in the same impenetrable shadows that now coil around it's body like tentacle wisps.
It approaches unperturbed.

Francesca was cautious, although not overly concerned. If this person wanted to fight them, they would've already attacked rather than exposing themselves to Stand Users whose abilities they may well not even fully know.

"My name is not important," a voice, clearly feminine comes forward from the figure, drenched in a thick accent you can't quite make out the origins of. "But for the moment, call me Night. And as for what this is about, quite simply, your continued survival."
- 26,408

Sam looks at the woman approching menacingly, though just keeps his guard up for now.
"What do you even mean with that ?"
He simply asks Night back.

"I think you may have figured out by now that those who attempted to imprison you are not even close to being at an end. By escaping you've only given them more reason to hunt you down."

"Certainly, but my ability to answer will of course be dependent on the question."

"To answer that fully would take too long. But," the shadows moved. Now that the night was properly settling they seemed to draw even more from the surrounding environment. They erupted from the ground, enclosing you and the figure into a dome of pitch blackness. You see, nothing until figures begin appearing in the shadows, which you notice upon second glance are just breaks in the shadows shaped like humanoids.
"There were once, long ago, beings you would call men and women if you saw them. They lived and laughed, loved and hated as you do. But they were different from men. They lived longer, healthier lives, unburdened by disease or fragility, even into their twilight years," the figure narrated as the picture of a nascent, primitive civilization was painted by the shadows.
"But even to them there was one enemy they could not do anything against. A plague that hung upon the peoples constantly. The Sun," the shadows showed a great tear then, light flying through and scouring the other figures.
"This was their plight. They were free to do as they pleased in the nightly hours. But the realm of the Sun was beyond them. That is until one of them was born, a genius beyond the others," the shadows now shifted to form a lone figure, with stars shining from beyond the shadow dome acting as it's eyes.
"The man sought to conquer the Sun. He built contraptions which could unlock hidden abilities within the flesh of each being, and especially those of his own race. But when he was rejected by his people, he killed them. A well-meaning extremist, but an extremist nonetheless. And his hubris would ultimately be what damned him," the figure finally said, as the shadow dome receded, shrinking once more to the natural shade created by the desert landscape and the coiling wisps around the cloak.
"I know not whether he ever achieved his goal before his doom, or if it's even possible. However I know this organization we have both come into contact with wishes to attain a similar state of being."

"Because I was the one who kept the neutralizer away. Or did your little captive not mention him?" the figure says in a neutral tone. "If he had been there during your reawakening, you would still all be locked up. Because I was the one to signal you to talk to each-other through the pipes. And because I was the one who dispatched of all these minions who would have already alerted the higher ranks. And now I am asking you to trust me enough to LEAVE. You do not want this war."

"Vampires? I know of them. My dad and uncle were pretty familiar with them. So they're looking for a way to conquer the Sun."
She mused upon hearing what was said.
"But, I don't intend to give up. They're hurting people and I can't tolerate that. I'd always heard stories of fights like these, groups of Stand Users facing one another like this. I guess it's my time now. So I won't run away."

"I do not think you do know. I am not talking of the abominations you faced down there, in the depths of that facility. The power of the Stone Mask in the hands of one who truly knows it's secrets, and how to wield them...will be far above anything you can possibly imagine. I have been fighting this war for a very long time, girl. I know what lies beyond that veil," the figure laments as it turns away from the group. "Do you truly think you are ready?"

"There are ways to avoid them, despite evidence to the contrary. They are not easy. But I'm giving you this choice. They will be here, soon," the figure says as it moves as if to stare at something beyond the horizon. "I understand if it is your wish to fight. But please, leave this to me."
The shadows dance once more, pointing to a direction in the East.
"You will find another town in that direction. It is some ways away, but, if you are to make it there, we will meet again. Now I must throw off their trail. Please, GO."

"We will meet there then. Let us go."

Wiki was a little bit concerned about both the story and the fact that her allies response to dead bodies was to immediately loot them for anything interesting. She wasn’t sure how, but it definitely seemed like she got caught up with a bad crowd all of a sudden.
“This is not what I expected to happen when coming to America,” she commented mostly to herself as she followed the rest of them. This was all just absurd...

The journey to the town isn't long in the traditional sense, but physically is brutal. The sun hangs high above everyone, beating down with enough heat to cook food with. Along the way, the beautiful scenery of cracked dirt, cacti, dead animals, and the occasional juicy looking fruit accompany the dead lands. After a few miles, there is what could charitably be described as a couple of wood shacks that barely hold together, with the most notable feature being a destroyed water tower and a mining pit. In front of everyone, a sign saying "Kimberly, Nevada: 1 mile ahead is seen, looking ancient.
