The fact that even John found what was happening to the map new was of some relief to Chas as it meant he wasn't just being stupid or ignorant to something. As John mentioned about the rain outside, it was then he suddenly let his ears tune into the hammering of the rain on the roof of the building, nodding at the question. "I think an umbrella might be worth it. We'll take the cab too" he replied back to him, grabbing his jacket off the back of his chair and putting it on. "you got any idea what it could be that's causing the scryibg map to act up differently?" he asked him, checking his jacket pocket for the car keys. He figured that like most cases of John's they'd need the cab as some sort of getaway, or at least a shelter from the rain. He waited for John to be ready and to grab the umbrellas before heading to the door and opening it. "why can it never be a decent day or evening when you get these cases?" he asked his mate, half complaining half joking as he made a runner for the cab, unlocking the doors and getting inside. He really hoped it wouldn't be too much of a problem whatever it was they were getting themselves into this time. There were far too many new things cropping up lately, something he wasn't entirely certain he wanted to be the case. It was true, there was never a dull moment with John, yet sometimes he wished there would be a dull moment so he could live his life with his wife and kid. Back in the alleyway Kay was getting more and more cold which was making her want to just pass out and sleep. She was sure that one day if not tonight she would end up with hypothermia, if she couldn't find some safe house. Yet then came the sound of footsteps which made her go on high alert. When the shadow rapidly came flying at her and seemingly looking at her, she got her guard up even more. "whose there? Just leave me alone" she conplained, really not in the mood, but also prepared to fight if it came to it. She wasn't trusting easily, a trait that had kept her alive this long so she wasn't going to change her ways any time soon. One of her wings curled more round her body to shield her whilst the other arched back and up, ready to yank her body away if it was needed. "this is my patch, as shit as it is, so find your own place to shelter from the rain yeah?" she commented, keeping her eyes on the shadow in front of her intently. She hoped it was just another homeless person wanting her patch as she could have dealt with that, but if it was something paranormal then she was ready to run or fly the hell outta there.
