John nodded to Cia when she told him about taking the bus over to where her friends were, and as they left that same young girl that had talked to him earlier stood and watched them go. John had waved goodbye to her, yet she didn't wave back and simply turned and walked off. He then stayed quiet for most of the way to the bar, thinking about the conversation he had with that young girl. [i]I'm doing the right thing...I know it.[/i] He thought to himself as he held the new ice bag up to his head. When they arrived at the bar and Cia got off the bus, John followed, and as they approached the door he tore the bandage off of his eye and tossed the combination of gauze and patty meat to the side. He continued to try and rub his eye clean with his sleeve while Cia announced their arrival.

Once his eye was cleaned to his satisfaction, he noticed just how many people were in the bar. And one of them seemed quite angry, to no great surprise. [color=ed1c24]"You know how to get us in?"[/color] Said the angry man, to which John simply lowered the bag of ice down from his head to rest at his side. [color=00aeef]"I can tell that's not all you want to say, you know..."[/color] John stated before glancing at Cia. [color=00aeef]"But I doubt your anger compares to her's."[/color] He added with a smirk, though you could tell in his eyes that he was nervous and even somewhat scared.

[color=00aeef]"But to your question; no, I don't know how to get you in just yet. But when Miss Cia here 'bargained' for information, 'we' came up with the plan to send me in to map the place out first. Security at the blacksite will be tight, but until now I've never really paid it all that much attention. There's that, and I need to locate your friend using my gift...I don't know where they're keeping her inside, or if she's even still there in that building."[/color] John explained, raising the bag of ice back up to his head. [color=00aeef]"But my gift needs my mind to be clear, and due to a certain someone I'm experiencing some pain all over my cranium...but I do feel as though I might be well enough to try. I'll need something to search for...specifically...I can locate Gifted, but I need to know something about them in order to tell them apart from the crowd. I know what she looks like, but that's not good enough...I should think...something or someone of importance to her might help me. I have telepathy, but with it I can only see images, visions, and memories. I need something to search for..."[/color]
