"I'm still trying to figure out how all this works. Let me see." as Tom tries to do just that.

Deci sits on a level with him and finally sighs a relaxation sigh. "You can most definitely sit and thank-you, and also thank-you for answering some questions. I mean no offence to the team but it seems so Cliquey. And then I was warned of the anger of Alice, and everything, I mean I will admit I was not to nice to Jason but I told him what I thought and all that. It was honest and what my step father needed to hear too. And on top of that, everyone here seems in a relationship, well everyone I viewed so far, which is why it is cliquey. I mean we are a team from what I gathered and yet Isamu jumps to save Ashley first, Alice and that Jason and on and on." She takes a moment to collect herself. "I am sorry I am venting and frustrated right no and have no right to take it out on you. So why are you, well no offence you look exhausted. What happened on your trip out to the ship I believe if I recall hearing a bit of the conversation.

"I understand," Sasha sighed. She'd given the speech to so many others when she'd been on the other side of the badge. It didn't make her feel any worse to have it said. She wasn't sure what was worse her home being burned down, her stubborn refusal to just avoid serving her own kind, or that her tenders and customers were now without a place to come and relax.
She looked down at the cell phone and shook her head before texting back. "It's one of those days isn't it."

" I was drugged so I'd lose a fight. " Ryne replied. " There's a drug out there called Cure that somehow blocks meta's powers. They loaded my water bottle with it. Yeah, alot of the others have become close, guess it comes from spending all your time together. We work and live together, so if there's any attraction, it's always there. did they tell you the whole story about Jason? His back and his brother and being MacColter's assassin at one point? anyways, it'll explain why he is the way he is. And Alice won't get angry at you, she just needs to calm about Jason. If it makes you feel any better, I'm new to this team too."
Sure enough, when Tom found the replay, by slowing it down enough he could see the blur of Jason pass between two lanes of traffic. " You got him. But why are the traffic cams watching for him?" Janie asked.
Ashley came back with an upset look. " Avi's gone. He took a bunch of his stuff and his bike." She looked at Alice. " He said he'll quit if that's what you want."
Another text came back. Good pair. You lose home. I lose friends. 10 minutes

Isamu frowns at Ashley's comment about Avery. He wants to respond, but he is only leader when Alice isn't around, and at the moment, she is in the same room. He reaches his hand to Ashley and squeezes hers reassuringly. As he looks at the screen. "Perhaps as we said earlier, he is already being tracked by Wraith. Janie, is there anyway to check the current programming or controller of that camera, or any of the others?"

Alice glances over, seeing Isamu frown and says quietly. "You're allowed to speak your mind. You don't have to stop talking just because I'm here. We're both leading this team, not just me."

"Somehow it does make me feel better that you are new to the team too. I mean so is Sara but she has been doing stuff like this for years. And yes not all you just told me but a fair bit has been told about the rest of the group. Well actually one person who I believe is Dmitri. I hope I got that right." She pauses as if checking to see in her head that it is correct.
"No I will admit so far this has not been the most pleasent of joinings. I mean at first I thought it would be cool to join this team, but now I am not sure. I mean I like Sierra so far, and Sara is not bad after you get to know her a little better, but let me see here. Isamu has no faith in my abilities as shown a bunch of times tonight, once at the bar and the second time when I was talking with Jason. Heck at least Jason said I will work with this team on the way out the door. And they all come across as really condescending and all." She breathes deeply again after getting that mouthful out.
"I apologize again and thank-you for letting me vent even in your exhausted state. So if you do not mind me asking what can you do and is there anything I can do to help or is there anything you need me to do?" She seems better and happier now that she has a sounding board to vent at least for the meantime.

Tom punches at the keyboard to try and find him again.

" Me, I don't do alot. It's hard for me to get hurt and I can hurt people alot. " Ryne replied. " I should clear something up, I'm new to this team, but I used to lead the Atlanta team, before there was an incident." He swallowed, not wanting to say more. " Look, both of them are new at this and under alot of stress, so they need some slack. I know, I've been there and don't envy them."
While Tom tries something, the display jumps to another intersection on it's own. Janie was scratching her head," Why does it keep jumping like that? It's like the system is set up to... wait a minute." she hammered at her own keyboard, bringing up schematics. " there, look. the frequency Jason emits. It's the same one emergencies use to interrupt traffic lights to get the right of way. quite a coincidence."

"It makes sense actually, Wraith is working with the mayor and police. They control the camera systems. We may need to be ready if they were tracking Jason they know our main base of operations is here."

"So they're tracking him. Great." Tom sighs. "OK. so now we know how they're following him - what do we do about it?"

"I can understand that completely. I just think they could take some more understanding in the rest of us. Or how to deal with new people or even sensitivity training. Gods I hated that when I had to take it. But my point is I will try to give them some slack, but someone needs to talk to them on how to deal with people. I mean no offence to Isamu but when I found something I swear he was almost going to pat me on the head when he said good job. It is like it was not what he was going to say and had to think of it. I promise I will do my best either way." She pauses for a moment coming to realization. "That means you have been doing this for a while then. That is really cool!"

Alice asks quietly, "Is there something we can do to disrupt or change the frequency to something we can follow but they can't?"

"Where was that location? Sierra is still out in the field with her team. Perhaps if she has dealt with Vance, she can move towards where we think Jason may be. If she can get close enough, she can gain his ability and perhaps keep up with him. What do you think Alice," he asks. He wants to remind not just himself but the others too that she is in charge.

" Sierra is over here." Janie replied, pointing quite a ways from where Jason last was. " she'd be able to get there before us unless,"
" sorry, I can't transport us very close to there." Dmitri replied.
The traffic cams stopped changing. " The next street lights are here and here, so we have a place to start. He could make it to the cyber cafe from there without passing more lights, but it would be by back alleys."
