Jen glanced at the two conduits who had just arrived. One was a man. He looked old enough for a drink. He had tried to order some rum, so he must've been used so the strong stuff. Occasionally she would see him at the Cinder, so he knew must've known Zeke just as well as she did. He was also from the Rogue Twister. He was the one who launched the lightning bolt that disabled the rogue. However, the other girl just ordered a cola. Seemed pretty small. The girl was also part of the battle. She launched some blasts of glowing energy, and now she had a swirling light of glowing energy around her arm. Probably had a power involving light. But Jen didn't think she exactly looked old enough to be in a bar.

"Hey, uh, Zeke." Jen said, waving over the bartender. Zeke walked over, and leaned in close. "You, uh.. you really think she's legal age?" She said in a hushed voice, glancing at the girl. 

"Jen, you gotta have some fun sometimes." Zeke whispered, grinning. "'Course she's not legal age. Sure as hell don't mean she can't get a drink." Zeke being Zeke again. He also knew that if he turned the girl down she could easily just blast him in the face and he couldn't do a thing. 

Jen shrugged. "I guess." Zeke just chuckled, and rubbed her baseball cap, raising himself and walking back to the empty glasses. He grabbed one and began to polish it with a fresh tissue. "So. What brings you fellows to the Cinder? Cause I know you sure didn't come just to say hi to old Zeke."

Jen sighed, rubbing some dust off the old hard wood counter. "I just need a drink." Jen said bluntly. She grabbed the glass and sipped down some more. The TV was playing Conduit 6 News right now, one of the main news channels for all conduit news. It was also the same channel that the Syndicate footage had played originally. They had lost some credibility after the incident, but it was still the most popular by far. It was playing some news about the aftermath of the tornado. Apparently, some greased up rogue had appeared soon after, and blown up some car.
