" Call me Avi." He replied, taking a seat. " My friend Dmitri told me I should come meet you." He was better looking in person than on the monitor, and definitely military, or at least retired.

"A friend of Dmitri," Sasha says with a pleasant smile. "I wanted to speak with him. May I offer you a drink?"
Sasha will pour the drink herself and offer it to Avi if he wants it. "What can I do for you Avi? You can call me Sasha if you like."

" Okay Sasha." Avi replied, accepting the drink. " I was just curious what benefit you would get out of showing off that your one of us? Most meta's prefer to hide under the radar, even when it comes to each other. and I'd like to know a little more about these folks who don't want you serving our kind. Will make my job a little easier."

"I've never felt that," Sasha says. "But my powers lend themselves to rather... specific tasks. Languages and healing. Says cop to me." She shrugs and smiles pleasantly. "As for the two jokers who don't want me to serve meta's... well they just called in a fake health scare to try and shut us down, and I'm going to guess they jumped Nick last night," Sasha says in an unfriendly tone. "For obvious reasons I cannot divulge much information, what I can divulge is this." Sasha will hand him a piece of paper with the descriptions of the men that came into her office yesterday.
Looking Avi straight in the eye she steers him with a clear gave. "Ever since my mutation I've not felt one ounce of true feeling for others, but I do respect and care for my staff. That stated, what information do you have, and my benefit... it's lonely when you're the only meta you know. There were so many times I had to hide myself away while I was a cop because of my gift to recover from near death experiences. It left a mark, twenty years on the service and not even a gray hair or a wrinkle... or a true friend to call when I need to talk to someone."

Avi's attention perked at the mention of healing just enough for Sasha to pick up on, but otherwise he sat patiently listening. He took the peice of paper and looked at it, then folded it and put it in his pocket. I'm sorry about your friend, but rascists like this are the hardest for us to deal with, I we'll definitely look into it." He was about say something else when he got a curious look while touching his ear.
At the same time, Jeff knocked and poked his head in at the same time," sorry to bug you , but Jenny just called. Nicky's been moved to recovery. He made it through surgery okay. she said you wanted to know."
At the same time Avi stood up, as he did, revealing that he had a comm device of a sort Sasha had never seen behind his ear, and that beneath his light jacket, he was armed. " I'm sorry, but we'll have to continue this discussion at another time, I have to get to Mercy General right away. Tell you what, here's my card," he offered a blank card with only a cellphone number on it," call me if you need another of our kind to talk to. From the sounds of things, you and I have alot more in common than just what we are." He offered a wry smirk and a handshake.

((OOC: is Mercy General where Nick is located at? Because if so Sasha would offer to take Avi in her car. And also... can Sasha use her divine healing with only a touch, like a quick heal not for everything just to get him back up on his feet quicker? I know i can heal with Divine healing, just not sure how much.))
"That's fine, Jeff. I was expecting her to call, if she calls back tell her I'm on my way."

( Yes it is the same hospital, what a coincidence... )
" Okay, say hi for us. We'll keeep things under control." Jeff replied, and went back to work.
After shaking hands, Avi asked," Which cab company is the quickest? I wasn't planning on a side trip, and I have some friends about to get in trouble." He scowled, waiting for an answer, then sputtered," I hate getting caught off guard like this."

Sasha smiles and picks up her purse. "You can ride with me to the hospital, that is where Nick currently is. If you like you can ride with me there. And if you prefer a more action oriented stop you can freely jump from the moving car," Sasha says pulling her keys from her purse.
"I certainly can, Jeff. Thank you for your help, I'll be back when I can."

Jeff waved as Avi and Sasha left the bar. Avi shook his head," I'm not really into that hollywood stunt stuff, but thanks for the offer, but thanks for the lift. I don't suppose I could prompt you to get there quickly?"

Sasha arches an eyebrow as she looks at Avi. "I'm guessing there's some need for alacrity then," she says. "Very well, but if we're pulled over you pay the ticket," she says. "It's times like these that I wish I had been a detective and kept my siren."
Punching the accelerator of her car Sasha takes off at top speed. "You know, I don't normally bother driving anymore," Sasha replies casually. "I normally get there quicker just by flying. Of course during the day it's harder to keep a low profile when you fly. I'd put a seat belt on if you worry about your neck. It hurts like hell to be thrown from a car, I know, I broke my neck doing it once."

" I can lean out the window and howl if you like?" Avi smirked, unaffected by the speed. " Broken bones are nothing, it's explosions that hurt. At least until they heal out." He looked over at Sasha, " I know a little about healing too."

"If you want to lean your head out the window and howl like a mad man be my guest," Sasha rebuked in a sarcastic tone. "I've never been blown up, but I was shot several times as a police officer. I have yet to see the thrill in inflicting pain on oneself simply because you can heal."

" Never said I liked it, but it's part of the package. You heal and fly, I heal and blow stuff up." Avi shrugged. " Gunshots are bad too. I could show you some dandy scars from Iraq, if they left any. Guess that's one good thing about being able to heal, no marks left behind."

"Yes well... not all are so fortunate as to be their own artillery these days are they?" Sasha responds sardonically. "No, I believe you, your scars if you have any will fade eventually," she says trying to push a little more speed from her car.
