"Great. I'ld have to look inconspicuous." William grunts. "I'm going to need a pair of sunglasses, and some nice, local clothes." After finishing his breakfast, William heads to find his luggage that he left here, and routes out some neatly-packed slacks, and a neatly-packed shirt, and some sunglasses (these were also neatly packed). Not that he's a perfectionist, but 6 decades in the army enforeces certain habits.
"That should about do it." He says, as he returns a few minutes later, looking like just another snow bird.

Alice comes out of the bathroom a few minutes later. She goes to the couch where she slept and grabs her bag. Going back to the kitchen, she says "I shouldn't be too long." She writes her cell phone # on a piece of paper and places it on the counter "if anyone needs me to pick something up, just call me and let me know." (tag)

"I'll head out with you. I need a few things also." Eric says to Al. "I mean hell since you live in my building and all." Eric looks to Ice
"Hey Ice you stayin or coming?" Eric picks up his backpack and makes sure everything is in order. (basically that the disk is there).

*slides a glance at Michael .. and can't help the random thought that slips out to him* -= great .. we get left behind like toddlers that can barely walk =-
*then turns her attention to the few scraps and leftovers that remain, taking another slice of toast and loads it up with some bacon and the last of the eggs and places a second piece of toast on the top* 'what? .. i'm used to eating last. this is still warm .. '
*watching the others now, then takes a bite* ... 'can't have it now .. its got my teethmarks in it' ... *then slowly eats the rest of it and enjoys it a lot*

"I think you all should wait here. A couple of days in smelly clothes will build character." William says, idly steeping tea. "Just be thank-ful you're not in a muddy fox-hole at the same time... you know, under a hail of bullets... Ah, the memories." And he tosses the Tea bag in the trash, and starts sipping.

Alice smirks at William "You can build all the character you want, old man. I'm going home to get some things." Turning to Eric & Ice, "He may have a point though. You're both being hunted by big bads. I'm not. So it's probably safer for me than it is for you." (tag)

"You chose the life old man." Eric then looks to Al. "This is true, but after being seein in the company of us you probably got someone on your tail also. Even so, its better to have someone go out with you rather then going out alone. But if you want I can just go a differant way then whatever way you head back."

William pulls up his sleeve, showing the symbols of the Canadian military, and a serial number. "Anyone thinks I'm in this for fun, can stop that right now. We don't all get to chose our lives. I certainly didn't choose this one. You should all be thankful you're not the property of a government. All of you."
William looks at Eric then Alice. "You will stay here, until it is safe to leave, unless you want to end up with a barcode like this too." With a look to Tyler not to contradict him, William walks out of the room. "I'll be back this afternoon."
A few minutes later, William's on the bus, a soft smile. The guy that gave him that serial number spent the rest of his life comatose, and, even if he had woken up, the mental trauma would have finished the job. The kids needn't know that though.

Alice returns to the living room, and sits on the couch she slept on feeling a bit stunned by William's comments. Glancing at eric and Ice, she asks "Do you guys still want to go? I don't want to risk getting you guys hurt just for the sake of some clothes." (tag)

You had to wash in a fountain? Oh my god, if he pulled his waistband a little higher he'd look like my grandfather Michael replied to Sparks, trying to not show his amusement as he motioned towards Will.
" Everything okay?" Jason asked from behind the couch, obviously wearing his exoskeleton as he stood there, though his baggy jogging pants hid it. " I'm going out for a while, I'll see you when I get back." He smirked at Alice before starting towards the starwell. " Don't tell Ty, one fight this morning is enough. " He stopped as he opened the door and looked towards the kitchen door with a devious smirk. " You know you could always come with." He looked at Ice and Eric. " You two for that matter, I wasn't headed anywheres in particular. Just gotta get out."
Ice looked at Eric and shook his head. " You go, I'm gonna stay put and try to make some headway on that disk, provided you've still got it."
Tyler looked at Sparks antics with the leftovers and chuckled slightly. " Help yourself, we can always make more. Besides, you still need to get your strength back up. Especially if the two of you are going with me to get Ashley back." Felicia gave him an odd look, but he waved it off. " I'll get the hacker to help me narrow down the search." Trevor said as he stood up and left the kitchen. Tyler nodded. " So, you two interested?" Michael gave Sparks an 'I dunno' look before nodding.
Before Eric could hand over the disk, Trevor appeared and ushered Ice back the hall without noticing Jason at the door.
The bus ride is uneventful, reminding Will how much he hates doing the tourist thing.

As Will showed his wrist with the serial number, Eric instanty memorized the number and stored it for later. As will leaves and Al heads to the couch Eric follows with Ice. "Yeah I got it, but look into this guys record. Eric writes down the number. I don't get a good feeling from him." Eric smirks a little "Then again I never really did like authority." Eric starts to get the disk but Trevor pulls him away before Eric could give it to him. 'yeah I'll head out with you guys" Eric calls to Al as she and Jason start leaving the house.

Alice nods at Jason, "That sounds like a plan. I wanted to pick some stuff up from my place, and Eric wanted to get some stuff from his." When Alice gets to the front door, she walks over to the elevator and presses the button, waiting for Eric and Jason to catch up. (tag)

William idly watches the city drive by, noting changes in peoples' strides, or attitudes around them. Very conscious that he's getting a lot of suspicious looks, being a tourist on a bus. Even with his dark sunglasses, William doesn't meet their stares, figuring it could get him into trouble. Eventually, he arrives at the Miami arena, and walks idly to the meeting place, looking around at all the nice boats, waving genially when waved to.
(OOC: Don't say William didn't warn you foolish head-strong kids...)

[Will]
A pair of imposing men in suits stood next to a huge yacht as Will approached. They blocked his path until Lenny shouted from aboard the ship. " It's okay, the boss is expecting him."
[Alice/Eric]
The elevator opens and Jason steps aboard. " Whereever you want to go, as long as we get out of here for a while."

William nods politely at the two guards as he passed. "Very professional. Like the suits." He says calmly as he passes. On the yacht, William walks up to Lenny. "So, where to now?"
