From The Ashes 5

Vampire: The Masquerade
From The Ashes 

"So, was the idea to let them know this place was burned?" Dalton asked, deadpan.
"I think it was to find out what they were bringing in." Rain shrugged. He braced himself as Dalton sideswiped the pursuing car.
"Must be something valuable..." Dalton grunted as the pursuing car scraped along a road barrier.
"I'm sure these guys will have no idea." Bullets cracked the passenger window.

Ella looked around the restaurant to see if she could spot the woman. She was talking to the wine waiter again. And as she snuck around, she spotted the woman's companion coming out of their car, looking for someone. Could he see her?

The gang car pulled a U-turn and slammed into the car full of gunmen. Dalton could hear groans and smell blood. "They're done. We should move before all this noise gets us noticed."

Ella watched as the waiter handed the woman his car keys, and she stepped out of the employee door, her driver joining her. The woman looked around with bright, alert eyes, and Ella figured better hide even though human sense couldn't see her. All she could do was get the waiter's license plate.

Dalton burned the car out once they were out of town.

Laura, who had been sitting up watching the local news report a car accident and a search for a hit-and-run driver, looked at the new car Dalton and Rain returned in.
"So that was a roaring success, huh?"

Ella made her own way back.

"If nothing else, they lost some gunmen and a drop box."
"And does that lead back to us...?"
