The next morning came rather quickly as the events the night before had carried on late into the night and with the systematic attacks on the servant rooms and then some of the guest rooms, many people in the manor didn't get that much sleep. Most of those who have come to these parties before are accustomed to sleeping in however and now some of them are a little weary to venture out for breakfast. One guest that slept fine though the night was Nykolas because he was locked into his closet, locked form the inside. Zarvan had followed him in there. Nick had taken about an hour long nap before he locked himself in and then he and Zarvan stayed up a little later working some magic, but he still feels like he overslept when he finally gets up. His healing body would rather he stay in bed and sleep some more, but as a Keloshian warrior he can rest until he knows justice is done to those who dared to attack him. In the back of his mind is the disappointed look on his master's face should he fail to restore honor.
The door to the closet opens and out steps Nykolas, looking much better than he did the night before. He stands on his own two feet and moves with the grace of a vampire, no swaying at all. His features do not betray any pain or exhaustion he might be feeling. Weakness is not allowed. Not when you stand alone in a strange place. His bright apple green eyes glance toward the bed where a naked and bloody Amaya rests in the arms of her host. Nick finds it odd that Arako appears dressed still and immediately banishes that thought and where it might lead from his mind. As well as the noticing of the bruises on Amaya's neck. What those freaks do in their personal time is between them.
He ignores the two in the bed, though frowns just a little glancing at the empty bath where an injured siren should be. He shrugs that off, maybe in the night the male siren went to be with the female ones. Sirens, naga, and vampires all share in desires and behavior that Nick finds troublesome and avoids when he can. His mind starts to trail to a certain dragon as it drifts toward those paths but he reigns it back in. There is no room in an assassin's life for desires other than those of his master.
His mind is empty from the thoughts and guidance of his friends, barred by the closed gates of the manor so he must fall to his training. Kayos would want him to kill the one that tried to kill him so that shall be his only focus until the deed is done. He has emerged from his closet wearing black leather armor of his true station. His footfalls make almost no sound has he heads toward the door. Zarvan exists the closet behind him and Nykolas holds out a hand without looking back. The door collapses instantly, so fast that even the oldest vampire would have trouble following it's shrinking and changing of shape. A small marble shoots out from where the door once was and lands lightly in Nykolas' outstretched hand. A gloved fists closes around it, keeping it safe. Nykolas is also armed. Not with his weapon of choice, but he left outside the gates. He doesn't bother asking Arako if it's okay, but he'd have to go over where there is a naked woman to do that and he doesn't care for too much skin.
