Daniel frowned, brow furrowing a bit when he heard that Alex was missing. While people certainly went missing at the circus (an unfortunate yet true fact), the circumstances of today left him with more than a guess as to the reason for her disappearance. So, either they had grabbed her for talking to him, or they knew she was a mage as well. The second option was a lot more dangerous for her than the first, if they thought she was an actual threat and she didn't sign on to their Initiative. Not that he knew what membership requirements were, but he could hazard a guess at what the outcome would be. 

He looked on askance as Chelsea pulled out her phone, confusion written over her face as well as she looked form it to him, wondering what the text was about. It was a question that was rapidly answered.He would have stopped her from replying, yet it was too late for that. And he probably didn't want to discover what was in the bag that she was reaching for. 

Now he had to try and explain this without getting tased or something. "She asked me about my tricks, I gave her an answer. Not a very detailed one, but it did give her some enlightenment," he replied simply. As for why she would be asking about me now, I don't know." He shrugged in affirmation. Yet he quickly found himself having to go on as he spotted the familiar sight of agents approaching, though he did have a bit of time. Thank goodness for the relatively straight rows of the fair. 

"Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to be on my way," he said, eschewing the plan to go to the parking lot and heading instead back into the circus, on a different vector. It was time for a change of plans it seemed. Rescue Alexis from the Hunter's, then make his escape.
