(A thread for anyone affiliated with Dark Claw)
Dark Claw had forgone the Claw Copter for the night, he had ordered Sparrow to strip it and rebuild it. He'd grade her on how well she did later.
Sometimes, he just needed to hear the city, feel the city. It was the city he was born in nearly a century ago and it barely felt different than the night his parents had been shot in front of his face.
He paused at a rooftop. Looking over the streets. It was raining, it was hot, it was a night for crime.

On the roof of the next building over, Azrael stood, his eyes upon the streets.
He felt his hunger begin to twinge within him, but he remained focused on the streets below. Watching, listening, feeling for any enemy of God to show their cowardly faces.
He turned, noticing Dark Claw, and silently leapt over to the rooftop where he stood, standing behind him.
"A good night for a hunt." Azrael said, his voice a low growl.

Dark Claw looked over at Azrael and squinted for a moment before nodding, "Bad night to hunt, actually. The rain is cutting scents, I can't track as far as normal. But, Gotham will make up for it. She always does. Rain and heat... it brings out the worst in people."

"It's a good thing I'm here, then. I can feel the worst of the worst coming out. The rain will not deter them. I can sense the night dwelling monsters that made me what I am, and my sword has been speaking to me, telling me of the sin and guilt that riddles the streets."
With those words, Azrael unsheathed the Sword of Sin. The blade glowed with an eternal fire that was unextinguished by the summer rain. It seemed to glow with greater intensity as the various citizens rushed through the streets, picking up on the sins of those below.

The Dark Claw smirked at Azrael, "If I ever need a replacement Azrael, remind me to call you first. You and I. We think the same."
He held his hand out a bit and with a SNIKT his adamantium claws unsheathed from their hidden reservoirs in his arm, "Now, let's do some damage."

Azrael smirked underneath his mask. "I thought you'd never ask." He said, walking to the roof's edge and looking down to the soaked streets below. "There's a group of vampires at the east edge of that alley." Azrael said, gesturing with his sword. He leapt from the roof's edge, his cloak billowing behind him. He sensed Dark Claw would most likely join him.

"Vampires? You know my ward was just reading a book and telling me how amazing it would be to be a vampire." Dark Claw said with a smirk, "But in Gotham... vampires are never amazing. Them and cyber-ninjas."
The Dark Claw jumped off the roof a moment after, pulling his cape in close so that he would land before Azrael, "Alright, bubs." he said as a SNIKT noise echoed in the alley way, "How about you all switch to pig's blood before I show you why I'm the best there is at what I do?"

Right behind, almost as if on cue, Azrael appeared behind Dark Claw, his sword burning with white hot intensity. "Leave or I will cut you down in the name of God." He said coldly.
The huddled group of vampires turned suddenly to face Dark Claw and Azrael, revealing a young girl, still alive but bleeding heavily. Several of the vampires simply hissed at Dark Claw. "You think your silly claws will stop us, human?" One of the vampires said before lunging at Dark Claw.

"Human? There was your first mistake." before the vampires lunge was even finished the Dark Claw had sliced it's head off it's shoulders. The unfortunately vampire began to disintegrate into dust. Dark Claw looked at it and smirked before turning to the other members of it's coterie.
"I am the Dark Claw. I am no more human than you are." He snarled at them his voice a coarse whisper that he knew they could hear.

The vampires stared in horror as their fellow bloodsucker was cut down and disintegrated on the spot. In an attempt to avenge the fallen vampire, they rushed Dark Claw and Azrael, surrounding them and attacking at once.
Azrael jumped forward, cutting through two of the vampires. The holy fire from the sword's blade engulfed the two quickly, leaving piles of ash behind. "I warn you now, I am not nearly as merciful as my friend here." He announced, punching a vampire square in the face.

The Dark Claw gave a solitary laugh, "And me and mercy just don't get along."
He threw a large throwing blade, curved in shape. It decapitated the next vampire, the one that Azrael had just hit, "Difference of opinion."

Two of the remaining vampires managed to sneak behind Dark Claw, grabbing him by the arms to keep him still. A third vampire stepped forward and began to mercilessly beat Dark Claw.
Azrael had just plunged a silver stake into a vampire when he saw the two vampires grab Dark Claw.

Azrael fought hard against the effect Nightcreeper's laughter had on him. He was brought to one knee, drawing his hood closer to try and drown it out.
He was eventually able to throw the Sword of Sins at one of the vampires that was holding Dark Claw, causing him to burst into flame.

As the few vampires on Dark Claw continued to pummel him Dark Claw growled from underneath the small dog pile. He then launched himself against them, his claws slashing out at them in every direction, limbs falling off as he did, "Creeper what the hell are you doing here!"

"I meant in New Gotham but I should have known better than try to get a straight answer out of you." Dark Claw snarled he sliced the head off the last vampire near him and paused to see how Nightcreeper handled himself.

Azrael ran over and picked up his sword, the blade still glowing brightly as he made his way over to Dark Claw and Nightcreeper. He managed to shake off the effects of the green skinned man's laugh thankfully. He then glared at Nightcreeper.
"You got in my way. I don't like.....things getting in my way." He said coldly.
