It was weird watching the others talk. Nessa had the sudden urge to bare her fangs and hiss and wasn't that so horror movie of the 80's! She licked her lips. She really wanted to get the search going to find that boy, however the meaning of her new assignment started sicking through. They were talking about a mass murder within the kindred. Someone was on the loose,  killing. The boy would have to wait! Yes, he was definitely in danger, but this serial killer could take another life at any moment and she wasn't going to let anything get in her way! If she'd have to work with these guys she'd manage somehow. They all seemed distant, but none had been unfriendly so far. Why should she be? With a smile she inclined her head as the dark haired woman with the weird manner of speech approached the child and her. So they'd all be staying at one place? Great! So she wouldn't be watching the evening classes and self defence courses anymore, huh? At least not for a while. That didn't quite sit right with her, but it wasn't to be changed. Hopefully they'd all get along somehow.  

Then a ride was offered. Nessa was so on board! With a grin of joy she followed the man. Opening the passenger door she slipped onto the seat, smiling at the driver. She extended her hand. “Thanks for the ride. I'm Nessa.” In this moment she realized she hadn't mentioned her name during the introduction. Well, they'd figure it out eventually. No need to worry. She looked around. She'd only been a car twice: the first time had been when her Mom had taken her away, the second when they'd returned and the kind lady from the shelter had brought them to their new apartment with all their belongings. The thought of her mother let her wince. The poor woman was all alone now . . . Absent-minded she stared at the radio. “It's a really nice car.” She said to the radio, extending a finger to stroke it's borders. This looked complicated but fun at the same time. “I wonder what kind of music you listen to – or are you one of those radio listeners?” Her eyes were brought up to meet those of the man. Alex was it, wasn't it? Yes, she thought he'd said something like that as they had stood together.
