The public library was slow as it normally was on a Saturday afternoon as Eric sat in his regular place, finishing off another novel by his favorite author . A familiar yet nervous voice took him by surprise as he turned the page. " Hi Eric. Didn't expect you to be here on a nice day like this."
As he looked up from book, another regular at the library he'd become friends with, Neal Winslet, stood before him.

"Hey Neal. Yeah, it is a nice day outside, but Burt Backen just came out with this great book and the library had it in so I had to read it. You should check it out sometime if your not to busy with school. Speak of which how is that going for you? Keeping everything up to par?" Eric gives him a questioning look. As Eric looks at Neal he takes in the people in his view. "Not many people enjoying good liturature today huh? Eric looks around to get a better view of everyone around him.

Neal doesn't seem to be paying much attention as he replied, his focus on the large bay windows at the from of the library. " No, I uh haven't read it yet. I might have to pick it up sometime. Yeah, everything is going fine."
As he sets his duffle bag down next to Eric's chair, Neal turns and flashes a nervous smile. " I guess everyone is out enjoying the sunshine. May I?" He picked up the book from Eric and read the preview. He handed it back, turning his attention back outside ." Sounds good. "

Eric notcies Neal not really paying much attention to him and curiousity overcomes him. "So whats going on out side?" Eric gets up and walks over to the window to check it out.

" Oh... uh, nothing." Snapped Neal, his nervousness becoming more apparent. Outside, it looks like a normal sunny afternoon. " I, uh, gotta go. I'll catch you later." Neal scooped up his bag and darted for the side entrance to the library.

Eric watches him as he leaves. "Oh hey Neal! You wanna come out with a few of us tonight? We're going to The Club (a club I guess...)" Eric tries to catch him before he leaves.

Before Eric could catch him, Neal disappeared out the door. At about the same time, a pair of men dressed in similar suits and trnchcoatsentered the front door. After a quick sweep of the library, they began to stop each patron momentarily until one of the staff pointed at Eric. One remained to continue talking to the librarian while the other calmly walked up to Eric. with a thick Austrialian accent, he asked." Excuse me, but I'm looking for (insert perfect description of Neal). Have you seen him recently?"

Eric gives him a questioing look. "Yeah, a few days ago why? Whats this about? Is he in trouble?" (I dont know if i have a MA bonus, I dont have my sheet with me). Eric keeps an eye on the man talking to the librarian also.

" It doesn't concern you. " The aussie replied tersely looking down at Eric. " Are you sure? We know he came in here."
His partner motioned towards the side door. the aussie nodded and the pair of them briskly headed that way and disappeared through it.

Eric watches them leave and gets the bright idea to follow (a childs curiosity) at a distance. *why are they after Neal* he thinks to himself. *Theres only one way to find out*

As he watches, the Austrailian responds something into an earmike once the door closed behind them. He nodded to his companion, stating " We have him." as the pair head down the stairs to a late model sedan that pulled up within seconds. As they climb in, Neal's protests from the back seat become apparent and it just as quickly peels away.

Eric immediately starts to follow. Knowing that he can stay just ahead of them and hide, he does so. He runs to the street corner ahead of them and hides behind a tree waiting for them to pass.
OOC: not sure how fast he will run... fast enough not to be made out (ie: recognized). If they see him at all that is.

The car comes up to speed and drives away. Eric had no problem shadowing the sedan despite the light traffic until it pulled onto the freeway, leaving without places to hide.

Eric Curses under his breath. *Maybe if I beat then to the next over pass* He thinks to himself... *Its worth a shot* and with that Eric takes off with a small sonic boom echoing behind him.

Despite his best efforts, the sedan blended in with the afternoon rush hour traffic and Eric lost sight of it before he landed. After a few minutes, he realized that searching the freeway would be futile, as he'd noticed dozens of similar vehicles already.
