Khris merely stood next to Patriot and let him do all the talking as he reached out to feel all the other metas nearby. Last thing they needed was for his mouth to cause any trouble, so he kept it shut.

[Tiger]
She thinks over what Dante says carefully. “I don’t think us leaving now will discourage pursuit of Patriot and Shroud. Unfortunately, even though I doubt they will be tailed to their destination, I doubt the risks will pay off for us. Shroud would have been able to pick a good vantage point in about five minutes and I think the clientele on the night of our meeting will pose the most risk. Since we can’t scout who will be there tomorrow in advance, there isn’t much we can do. Still, its not like I had a better plan.”
She looks at Dante and smiles, “Thanks for your vote of confidence. I’ll discuss the team’s leadership with Patriot when he returns and clarify the situation. We’ve worked together before and I’m sure we can form an effective team. Patriot is a natural fighter and a good battle leader.” Its clear this isn’t the first time Tiger has had to work to bring a team together, and her positive confidence makes Patriot’s undermining seem like just another detail of the mission.
“Why don’t we find your friend tomorrow, before we head to the club? Its not like we’re going to sit on our hands until evening tomorrow. Does the bar serve lunch? Or even better, breakfast?”

Patriot/Shroud
Shroud's extrasensory power picks up numerous metas in the area, including the man right in front of him. Of course, he knew Tribe was a meta by the file. The club was probably full of metas as well.
Sniffing, Tribe reaches out his hand for the pair's ID's.
"We've got to be careful. S.H.O.C.K. would love to find this place and kill everyone inside. Just don't do anything stupid inside. No powers, alright?" Handing each man back their ID's Tribe opens the door allowing the two into the club.
Tiger/Jeckle/Dante/Magician
"The sphere can be destroyed and it won't kill me. I will be stunned briefly, though." Seeing that his part of the conversation had come to an end, Magician sat down and pulled a deck of cards from his inner pocket.

"That will be fine Tiger. I just thought having additional information would be good before we proceed. Especially information that I know I can trust. Roga is like a brother to me, and I trust him beyond any doubt. Just let me know when I am clear to contact him, and I will setup a meet," says Dante before he once again turns his back and begins to think things over.

*opens the door, but pauses andt hen re-enters and closes the door. taking the time to redo the coat turning, and then slips the hair back into the short tight pony tail, opens the door once again. then closing the door tightly behind her with a tiny yellow piece of confetti type of paper to show if anyone entered the door, is seen briefly.
*then Jeckle is moving down the hall towards the elevators to wait for the next little bit, seems pre-occupied with counting dots in the tiles, but is listening to the voices of people in the halls. once the elevator arrives, slips in and then punches the lobby button. her intention to get a good hot meal for a decent price. the body screaming fo sleep, maintains the demonor of a tourist now exhausted and is unaware of things about her.

Khris tried to keep quiet and let Patriot handle things, but just didn't had the willpower with such an obvious set up. " Donna worry, he keeps me on a tight leash," he smirked. He was sure that this was the contact they were looking for, but didn't know when Patriot wanted to approach him. He looked at Patriot. " come on then, here's your chance to get thaht drink I said I'd buy."

Patriot
Giving Shroud a nod, he led the way inside. Using the noise of the crowd and music to block out any observers, Patriot brought the drink up to his lips to keep anyone from reading his lips. "I don't want to spend to much time in here. We need to case the place quickly, mingle a bit and then get out. You find a good spot for tomorrow?"

"Had that done before we made it to the door." Khris replied. " That church a couple blocks up looks like a good spot for me. Clear view of the front and at least a partial of the back, won't know until I get up there. " He look a sip of his drink. That rundown apartment building we walked past should give you a good look too, unless you want to stick Jeckle up there to spot for us and find your own place." His eyes scanned the crowd while his senses were working overtime with all the metas in the crowd. " There's too many of our kind for me to get a clear read." As he went for another sip, he sputtered," Sometimes I wish I could turn it off."

Patriot
Nodding, Patriot took another drink. "I guess deep down inside we all wish we could 'turn it off' and live normal lives." Setting the drink down, he smirked at Shroud. "But how boring would that be?" After memorizing the inside of the club and spending enough time inside, Patriot turned to Shroud. "Ready?"

Khris tipped his glass back and polished off his drink. He swallowed with a nod as he set the glass down, returning the smirk. " Whenever you're ready, lapdog." He scanned the crowd again, before getting to his feet. " So where did the boss have you off to? Never crossed paths the odd time I made back to the compound, thought mebbe you moved on to something new."

*rides the elevator to the lobby, and then heads for the first of the diners attached to the hotel. 'table for one .. thanks' to the waitress and is shown to one of hte few smaller tables left open. sits and glances at the menu 'lets see .. i'll take the ... scrambled eggs - welldone .. with bacon, extra crispy no hashbrowns and dry brown toast. large apple juice, and i'll think about something for dessert later. but water for now, i got some pills to take .. thanks'
*nods at the waitress doing her job and then seems to settle down into her coat and shrinks a few more inches, her mind on 3 different thought patterns. one her twin and his safety, another on various weapons on hand and the last on how good the bed will feel. this last one is making the most noise in her mind, should anyone come by with a telepathic gift
*waits quietly, and seems to almost fall asleep while waiting, and then when the water arrives, proceeds to take some pills. a couple of painkillers, a multi vitamin and one for a general anti-toxin in case of accidental poisonings

Patriot
Standing with Shroud, he turned to leave. "Alexander didn't send me anywhere. I called back up." He left that as being self explaned. "You've watched the news. You've seen how bad things are over there." He kept quiet as they walked out and past Tribe. When they were a safe distance away. "There's still a lot to do over there, but I finished up what I was sent to do. I would have stayed longer, but they're trying to get those guys to take over and I would have only gotten in the way of that." He glanced at the locations that Shroud mentioned. "I think Jeckle will be fine in that building. I'll take the alley."

" Sounds good. We can both keep an eye out for her then." Khris nodded, his tone more serious than usual. " Not too keen on three rookies, but they seem capable if you and Tiger can get them up to speed. Lord knows you two will do better than I faired." He let the subject drop, not really wanting to talk about what a disaster his attempt at leading a team had turned into, and the subsequent need for a leave of absence of his own to get his head on straight again.
He changed the subject quickly. " Now donna let me buying you thaht drink go to your head." He smirked," It donna mean I like you or anything."

Patriot
Nodding as they walked out of the district, Patriot gave a sideways glance to Shroud. "I'm not thrilled about the rookies either, but there's not much we can do about it. That one seems to have enough attitude for the both of them. Just hope it doesn't get him killed." He heard the unspoken story come from Shroud and only nodded deciding not to pry. Instead he just gave him a smirk. "Don't worry, Irish. I don't like you any different either."
