..:Subway Platform:.. ..Chicago's Subway Metro System.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to ALL: He watched another train go by as they sat there now next to you keeping close so they were in contact but not uncomfortable, it was nice to have another one he knew so close again, part of him had been lonely missing the family, but he was also to fault on that, he didn't do a good job of keeping up with the pack when they split, he became busy on his own projects, tasks and life and now, now he was perhaps ready to relax, not worry about working or moving around as much and his process brought him here. SO when he saw you he smiled he knew he was where he should be. He saw you show him the phone and nodded Of course He said softly. He would keep next to you as you kept hold of his arm as he settled next to you as he asked How have you been, it's so good to see a friendly face

..:Subway Platform:.. ..Chicago's Subway Metro System.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to ... Over and Out ... DAV: She quickly plugged the phone back in, anxious now for more than one reason to see the blip of a red bar which would give her enough power on the phone to check the address and make sure it was as she thought it was. "oh me?" as she sat close to him, even with their arms touching it was enough contact to sooth her anxiousness. "Not good, we'll tell you about it when we get to the ...house." she frowned and he could feel her distress.
" but short form, we were living quite well in Washington, then some things happened. Some humans were killed, we were blamed. We were attacked some were hurt and we were ran out of town, basically.... on a rail as they say." she tried to laughing scoff at the words but it was still too painful. "My husband was killed. Friends were killed. Do you remember Claire? Mirabel?

They left the hotel, both had a key. She was on the room listed as she booked the hotel, but made sure you got a key and she gave you some money. Fresh clothes. Nothing fancy, but clean. A Burner phone she had delivered to the front desk as well.
"Feel better?"
she guessed the answer but didn't assume.
"Now we can see if you can catch the scents of your friends. I'm sure they are around here somewhere."
while you were in the shower she made a few phone calls. Two Uber drivers that thought she was cute and she took well advantage of it too. Asking if anyone had seen or heard something.. weird. Or if something had happened.
The drivers talk. The ones that have been doing it for a while, even if specifics aren't give.. someone had to have seen something that could indicate something.
She had let Alyx know what she was doing. If he'd told her no, she would have made the reservation, got you what you needed and returned. But she was clear. As long as she returned before dusk. She figured she would.

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to Ecstacy's Prize ~|: "oh much, Thank you for everything," she felt a thousand times better. It was sometimes amazing what a fresh shower and change of clothing could do to one's outlook. Even in this city of millions she had hopes she'd find them. "I think next time I'll tattoo one of their phone numbers on my arm so I won't be without it. "
The burner phone, carefully tucked in her front pocket was smaller than what she was accustomed but felt oddly comforting. Perhaps she should keep a smaller phone, it wasn't as obvious in her pocket. "Have you been here long?" she as Galadriel as they walked, for the previous conversations had been mainly about her and who she was looking for. Now, time to turn the tables....sorta.

He heard you as you sat there close enough to touch hearing you answer him and he frowned a bit feeling the distress, he moved his arm to rest a hand on your back, nothing more than just to help comfort, to give support to someone he considered a dear friend. He would listen to you speak of the short story, and tilted his head some as he heard the news and he murmured I'm so sorry He said softly nodding I do He said. He knew now why the distres, or he guessed why, he knew you must be missing your husband. He kept close he was offering comfort to you with the contact as he knew it helped them relax, and he knew right now you needed it as it was a tough subject Im sorry I couldn't of been there to help

"You're welcome. It's my pleasure to help."
a soft laugh, nodding gently at the tattoo comment
"Yes that would definitely help. I have a couple of uber drivers checking for anything unusual. Just in case. The ones that have been doing it a long time talk. And they have their favorite customers or oddball customers."
Yes it can be very comforting, for sure. She completely understands how that feels. She's been in similar situations, only she didn't have anyone to turn to. Like you she was found by a stranger.
A smile
"I've only been here a few weeks. We were travelling but ended up finding someone unexpectantly so we will be here longer." (06/20/24 08:56:28 pm)

DAV: "The problem is," she spoke quietly, though no one on the platform could hear them or in fact paid them any attention. "We'd made such al life there that they knew us well. Lnew our habits, our jobs...everything nearly. The attack was so sudden...those that weren't hurt were killed.." she frowned and shuddered turning her head to rest against his shoulder. He could feel her inhalation shifting her body slightly as she breathed in.
"I found Claire....Mirabel...they were..." again she shuddered. "Anton, tried to protect me. But...he was a human and... She grimaced as she lowered her head, tipping it down slightly. "He was ....so...anyways.. We scattered, never knowing if others would be looking for us or not." Better to be on the safe side.
"Devon was the only one to remain, I don't know if it was foolish or not. She'd been living with three humans and fairly well went under the radar. Everyone knew they weren't weres and they hid her. She ...didn't want to leave them.

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to Ecstacy's Prize ~|: She laughed softly, wondering just how oddball and 'oddball customer' was. "I'm sure they are a sight to see," with another light laugh. But grew serious a moment later, "Then you were my lucky charm," she smile at her, "Fortunate am I that I ran across you," she was genuine in her appreciation. Friends, even acquaintances who helped one another were few and far between in this world.
They'd lost too many to not appreciate those that came across their paths at one time or another. She pause to hitch up the pants which were slightly too large in the waist, half skipping a step as she did so. "I hop you don't leave too quickly. you're nice..and ot just because of the room and clothes. I can feel it." tapping her chest with two fingers.

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to Myth-tical Desires | : You'd be surprised. She'd become friends with a female driver who was one of her contacts. She liked having contacts. Something she'd developed doing since she and Alyx were looking for Max whenever they could, even if Alyx felt he'd never find him. she always looked.
a soft smile as you call her your lucky charm
"I've been in similar situations so I understand how a friendly face and kindness can go a long way."
she shrugs at the hope she doesn't leave too quickly
"I dont think we will. We might even stay. It will depend on Alyx and Max. Alyx saved my life and Max was the one missing. Both are vampires. Alyx has been very good to me."
she can't help but speak fondly of her quirky eccentric Vampire. It's the truth.
"And thank you. Now where to next?"
she tries, sometimes not always possible, but she tries. (06/20/24 09:15:23 pm)

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to Ecstacy's Prize ~|: She actually came to a stop, frowning. "I don't know," pausing to look around. It seemed foolish to wander the streets on the off chance they'd find a hint of any of them. "I don't known. " Frowning. What they really needed was a venue, where large amount of people came and went, not this long stretch of streets that was like one long maze.
"Do you know of a congregation location? A park...something?" frowning as she continued to scan around them. How did you find the one you were looking for?" (06/20/24 09:23:39 pm) ... Over and Out ...

..:Subway Platform:.. ..Chicago's Subway Metro System.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to Myth-tical Desires | : He would listen to you as you spoke, he could hear you fine as he would close his eyes a moment as he listened to everything you told him. He, had a love hate relationship with humans, they didn't seem to know how to coexist with others at times. And some were violent, he didn't mind. He could usually handle himself but he also knew they could be dangeroud. Hearing you explain about it all. He felt the inhale of breath his arm moved from just having a hand on your back to being around your shoulder, squeezing you slightly closer to him as he let you talk of them and he frowned more. He listened about Sloan as he would sit in silence, a bit of anger in him for what happened but he nodded slightly I am...sorry He said softly hearing of all that happened. Of the details his words were true. I am so sorry I have no words He said he knew it must of been hard, his heart aching for what happened. His eyes lowereed some to the platform floor as he would keep you there close for now in contact, his hand squeezing your shoulder as he knew it wasn't gonna be easy to get over something like that (06/20/24 09:28:37 pm)

"Thank you," she kept her head down as she told him of Devon. She'd not heard from her since finding out she returned from university to continued with the house which had been her home for so many years.
Unfortunately with longer than human life spans, they were bound to meet with death far more often...death of friends, lovers...more.
"It's a vicious life sometimes. " she offered quietly. She knew they'd found what seemed like an idyllic home in Carlisle. They bothered no one and no one bothered them....until they did...and it did. And hell descended . As she felt his hand squeezing her shoulder lightly, she nodded briefly resuming her resting of her head on his shoulder. She'd missed this......being alone did nothing to recommend itself to her. They were pack, they needed each other.

"Subway? Waterfront? Subway to the waterfront?"
a soft laugh in her own mind at the suggestions she just made.
When you ask how they found Max she smiles
"A Chylde of Alyx somehow knew where to find us, she had found Max. Knew he was one of Alyx's as well."
she glances to her phone for any updates, but nothing so far. She was told this could take a while.
"Lets check out the subway. Can't hurt."
it's a popular way to get around town, if you aren't alone.

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to Ecstacy's Prize ~|: "oh, welll yes, that would be helpful, but I don't have that," at the idea of having a friend to help her locate the others. "I guess that would do as well as anything else," she quickly agreed. For all it was, she was fairly amiable and easy to get along with, hence her agreeableness to live with a houseful of humans instead of in one of the other houses with one of the other packmembers. "which way s the subway?"
Though as she asked the question she saw the sign half down the street denoting a subway platform at the end of the escalator. "There it is," as she pointed to the sign.

"Yes you do."
It's said softly, she gives your arm a squeeze, then releases it. She laughs lightly when you ask where it is and answer in the same breath.
"This way it is then."
moving with you down the street towards the subway. Pausing a moment to see what scents come wafting out. She doesn't recognize anything, but maybe you do.. before you and her start heading down the stairs. (06/20/24 09:54:20 pm)

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to ALL: Her eyes lit up at the words and the soft squeeze to her arm made the smile brighter. "Thank you," genuine appreciation in those two words. Her eyes reflected that gratitude before she turned to head to the subway entrance.
Nothing came to her as they hit the stairs leading downward, through the kiosk of payment and onto the main platform that spread out on both sides of the tracks. "Ever wonder how they get from one side to the other when they were just ...just..." The smiling and easy manner quickly stilled.
"That's not possible. Is it possible?' she breathed the words softly as she began to slowly walk south on the platform. They moved past a crowd of summer students clustered around a map of the subway system. Across the way, she saw a woman and man sated together near one of the charging stations. "oh my go.d...my god...my god... "ANNA!" she yelled as she took off at a run, focusing so much on the woman that she barely noticed the man. When she did she nearly lost her footing.. "David?" by then she reached the two to fling herself into the arms of the woman. (06/20/24 09:59:41 pm) ... Over and Out ...

He was...used to it to a degree, mean no it never made it easier to see friends or loved ones die, but it was also something grown to expect when you lived as long as they did. He nodded It is, and it can be cruel in unusual ways He liked the home in Carlisle, he left obviously before things turned for the worse, but he had his reasoning. He felt horrible though, he knew in the end though he would come back, he loved the family too much to stay away, he just wished he was around to perhaps help, help when they needed it most. He kept you there close as he spoke I'm sorry I wasn't there, I...should of been there to help He said, he had a bit of guilt that you all went through that. He sighed softly just trying to enjoy the contact as he knew you would get them to where they needed to be.

"You're welcome"
She listens as you speak, then looks to see the different platforms. She laughs softly, smiling
"I haven't a clue. Alyx won't ride the subway. Not that I blame him."
she's about to continue when you stop smiling and then the soft spoken words. she sniffs the air and wonders. Then you yell a name and start running. She does as well. She stays back a little and grins. Part 1 of the mission accomplished.
She watches with a soft happy smile. She's glad she got a suite with a bedroom and a sitting room. (06/20/24 10:13:15 pm)

"But, you're here now and we can....we'll find the others and be a family again," that was her hope, to have as many together as possible," She leaned once again up to him, enjoying the comfort of his words and his presence when a flash of movement caught the corner of her eye followed a second later by the calling of her name. "Dev.....?" David could feel the shock moving through her as she slowly stood, "Devon?" she barely whispered before the other woman reached her, colliding with her. In just a breath more Devon released her to stare at David, shock over her face. "David? Devon asked before looking from Anna to David and back again.
Anna, seeing the woman following Devon saw the relieved smile, wondered at it but nodded a brief hello as she wasn't sure who to look at. Devon took that decision out of her hands by propelling herself into Davids' arms with great alacrity.
Anna shook herself stepped to the side, looked at the woman who followed. "You came with Devon?"

"Yes I did. Been with her for several hours now. I'm Galadriel."
she won't say the state she found Devon in. That's Devon's tale to tell not hers. She's just glad they found you both. But she knows there are others.

"It's my pleasure Anna. I'm glad we were able to find you."
At the family comment she smiles a little more
"Thank you. Though I have a family, but will definitely visit as often as I can. It can't hurt to have two."
she laughs softly, nodding gently. Her phone buzzes in her pocket but she doesn't look at right away
"Devon said there are others in the city as well. I've got some friends that maybe able to help find them too."
Probably.. hopefully what the buzzing of the phone is.
"In the meantime, I got Devon a hotel room, if you need a place to stay I can add both your names to the room."
