Alec sat in the Dine in, he sat chest close to long table he sent to on his arrival. He had barley eaten anything and he was the last one in the place as it had closed. He looked around at the empty tables and  out the window as the rain fell. it was an early close, still only in late afternoon the sun slightly blocking the sun that made the Seattle streets look dim. He rubbed his face and pushed the glass away from him and sighed. 
Alec personally didn't like public restaurants but he didn't have anything to eat in his apartment and didn't want to make a trip to the store. He decided to turn on the T.V. when the unmistakable sounds of screams and explosions rang on the T.V. speakers, he watched and his eyes widened as he learned of the presidents murder. 
"Why would you.." He was cut off with chilling footage of the explosions and the moments leading the the gun shot, of course not showing the shot on television reports.
He moved quickly out the door and into the street.
He was off to DC.
