-The hunters linger as the clock strikes 10:00 PM while [[wod:npcs:polly|Polly]] fishes out her phone. [[wod:hunter:pcs:josh|Josh]] Googles “Things that kill spiders” and carefully asks [[wod:npcs:ranjip|Dr. Ranjip]] if he has a way to contact the [[wod:npcs:mactan|Widow Mactan]] to see if she has any potential information about her fellow arachnid – and how to do so politely. Dr. Ranjip shakes his head and replies, “She’s a hob, so she lives in the Hedge. She doesn’t have a phone that I’m aware of, although I suppose the hell-phones might function now.” Veltis replies with a crude gesture, and then Dr. Ranjip realizes there are parties present who haven’t sworn the Pledge of Deathly Silence.

-Polly hits [[wod:npcs:hope|Hope]]’s number and sets her phone on speaker. They all hear Hope growl, //“Honey, I love you, but this is not a good time,”// through the phone, and the experienced hunters realize Hope is not in human form. The hunters hear ripping and tearing sounds through the connection, including a wet tearing noise followed by a whimper. Polly stands her ground and replies firmly, “There’s an //Azlu// loose at Cooley-Dickinson.” There is a moment of silence until Hope explodes into a fiery tirade laced with profanity that overrides any other sound. The rant last three long minutes, and after Hope finishes, the hunters hear [[wod:npcs:Cain]] ask, //“So… are you ok?”// Hope snarls, //“No. The rest of the pack has found an //Azlu// at the hospital. We need to meet them. Now. Meet us in the parking lot.”//

-Hope crushes her phone before they can fully answer, but the hunters eye each other and [[wod:npcs:mick|Mick]] announces, “So I’m more scared now that I was before.” Anita enthusiastically agrees. Josh quietly explains the pack to Isobel, David, and Peter as they exit the hospital. They relocate to their cars on the outer ring of the parking lot, and Josh glares at William, but wonders if he should get earplugs to prevent spiders from crawling into his ear canals. As the hunters settle in to wait in the crisp, cool fall night, Mick wonders, “What did we interrupt?” Anita posits, “Werewolf Sabbath?” Leta whispers, “Are all werewolves Jewish?” Polly groans and replies tersely, “No they are not. It was a leadership challenge. [[wod:npcs:valerie|Valerie]] challenged [[wod:npcs:cain|Cain]] for control of the pack.” William mutters, “Glad I didn’t call.” Leta retorts, “Why not? They like you! All the supernatural ladies like the Troy boys, even the lesbians.” Josh replies, “Because I know my place in the pack?”

 At 10:30 the hunters hear the first warning growl as five dire wolves slink out of the darkness along the bike trail. David whispers, “Holy shit!” as Peter mutters, “Having second thoughts about this,” as the five dire wolves charge at the hunters! No one breaks, and the wolves come to a graceful halt in front of them. Anita yells, “Turn around!” to her Sin-Eater gringos as the Troy cell pivots. David, Peter, and Isobel comply, and then comes the flesh-ripping, bone snapping sounds as the pack shifts into another form. A barely human voice snarls, “It’s safe now,” and the hunters turn. They see the five werewolves in dire-human form, and Cain has the left side of her face ripped open while Valerie is clearly favoring her right side, her shirt dark with blood. However, they hunters can see their regenerative abilities are already in play, as their bones start to knit in front of them.
-Anita admires Cain’s pink Mohawk, which seems to be part of all her forms. She asks her about it, and the younger werewolf seems startled and reluctant to answer. Hope cuts in with, “It’s a form of magic.” Leta whispers, “Like glamour from //The Craft//?” Anita starts muttering in Spanish, but is surprised when Valerie and the [[wod:npcs:heather|blonde-haired blue-eyed white werewolf girl]] does too. ((Heather grew up in Springfield and speaks Spanish fluently.)) She points to both of them and growls in Spanish, “You and you. We’ll talk later.”

 There is an awkward moment of silence before Hope snarls in rage and demands an explanation. Dr. Ranjip quickly provides one, with the others chipping in as needed. Hope nods when they’re finished and asks about the layout of the hospital. Dr. Ranjip explains there are three core buildings. West Building is the original hospital and has the main entrance and the emergency room entrance. The East and North buildings are later, smaller additions. The basement contains administrative stuff, radiology, and the morgue in North Building. The ground floor is the entrances and much of the emergency department. The first floor is the cancer center and other services, while the second floor is administrative: medical records, HR, the hospital administrations offices, etc. The third floor is patient rooms, the fourth floor is additional patient rooms and the Joint Replacement Center, and the fifth floor is inpatient behavioral.

 William, Josh, Leta, Veltis, Anita, and Heather finish their sweep of N3 a little after midnight. They then swing out and troop up to w4, which contains telemetry rooms and ICU/Critical Care rooms. The hunters have to tread carefully, as there are many more nurses on hand. However, they manage to clear W4 without issue, partly in thanks to Anita, who unlocked //Pyre-Flame Boneyard// again and cleared half the ward. They slip over to N4, which is the Joint Replacement Center and some patient rooms. Anita unlocks //Pyre-Flame Boneyard// once again, but this time finds dozens of spiders in the joint replacement lab!
-Anita warns the others and then texts the rest of the cell a warning. The cell slips into the lab and finds the waiting room. Anita guides them to the back, into the lab, and they spot spiders crawling over a prosthetic leg. The spiders bolt and swarm under a door! The hunters race up and find it’s an office door for one [[wod:npcs:chapman|Doctor Brett Chapman]]. Leta picks the lock while Anita uses the credit-card trick to bypass the deadbolt. The door pops open and Leta carefully pushes it open while shoving Josh to the back. Josh pulls his socks up over his jeans to prevent any arachnid visitors.

 The door opens all the way and they see the spiders crawling up a man sitting in the chair, facing them in the dark. The man is an older Caucasian with a white beard, and shows no signs of life. Anita and Leta share a look, and then Anita unlocks //Pyre-Flame Rage// while Leta calls upon her //Hellfire//. Josh bolts for a fire extinguisher as green and magenta fire swirls into the room and immolates several spiders on the man! The man then stands bolt upright and pats himself down before returning to his seat and resuming his blank stare.
