FourtyTwoTheir heavy paws trotted, ran, and jumped through nature as they caught onto the scent of Mika. Following the youth who could do a fair distance in a shorter time than the two alphas. This could be a challenge. A good one at least he hoped.

Czelsc
The bartender made his rounds then returned to Czeslc shortly after. It seemed the bartender was still off-put by the request. Holding a short tequila in one hand, a plate of raw chicken in the other, and a face of very mixed thoughts, he approached the seated man.
"Here's the tequila..." The young voice spoke, the glass clinking as it was set down before him. "....And...here's the...raw..chicken? For you sir..." The lad struggled to finish the sentence. He couldn't even make eye contact as he set the plate before the old man. It seemed if he did he would break into laughter.
"Thank you." And with that he slid a bill over to cover plus tip. The young bartender slid the money toward himself to collect it while still looking away. "Yeah.. Yes. Thank you. Let me know anything else." The young bartender re-grounded himself and his professionalism as he reminded himself that he was a busy bartender. He walked away.
Czelsc watched the man walk away. It was an obvious stare. He just felt like watching the guy. Wondering what he thought about their entire interaction.
He wasn't a mean man. He wasn't upset nor rude. He was a quiet man who lacked enough socialization. Some people are designed to function better this way.
Czeslc looked down to the tequila and relieved a hidden smile. It had been a very long time since sipping his favorite vice. He treated it as a reward or as a end all. Alcoholism was not a district he visited.
He looked down to his left side, the side facing the wall. Within his dressings was a hidden box. A black box with silver metal to hold it together. It was roughly 12 inches across and 14 inches long. Definitely not something that would be hidden too easily had it not seemed like some packed items he had along. This box had a latch on it, which Czelsc now hinged to open.
With his left hand he touched the raw chicken. It had been stored cold so although he'd prefer room temperature, this would suffice. He pinched a part of the chicken off with the one hand and reached down to the box, opening the small door with his clean hand. Some little sounds of commotion scurried as he handed over the small bit of meat which was eagerly taken away from him.
"There you go...Good girl..." he whispered to the box.
He closed the door for safety then looked back up to the bar. With his clean right hand he reached for the tequila, bringing to his mouth and sipping some back. He wasn't a shooter; he liked to enjoy it. Draw it out. Once he took a little bit he set it back down, scanning the area to see if anyone caught him handing raw chicken to himself and talking to what seemed like nothing.
I'm in Chris. Go ahead and start anything with Czeslc whenever.
They knew Mika's scent so they still had a good chance at tracking her. Instantly upon her approval he began to inhale the air to begin any navigation.
His head turned toward the left.
"We know she went that way. At least we have a good start. Let's go." He was assertive now that there was a purpose for them to alpha up.

Czelsc
The occasional sounds of a branch or vine pulling against Czeslc as he made his way through the thickly settled field flooded his senses. The soft crumbling sound of the grass as he walked upon was softly audible whereas the bugs of the area were lively and made their presence undeniable. The occasional bird calling out to the other that had just called out. The world was conversating. He was surrounded by an entire ecosystem to him, and what may seem like nothing to others.
He held his hand out to gently feel the leaves of some plants and branches as he strolled through. These moments were all he needed in life.
He had no exact destination. No exact reason. Nature had brought him in this direction it seemed. Rumors had set him on the trail though. Rumors are dangerous. They can be true, they can cause curiosity, or they can cause serious trouble. He chose which rumors or tricks to follow with great consideration.
KLEE
Czelsc seen some smoke from a distance. Typically a sign of human life. He was drawing closer to what he had heard about.
KLEE-KLEE-KLEE
"Yes. I know." Czeslc responded. His voice low and audibly tired. It would seem to have spoken to himself had someone else been near. No. It was only him in this field.
There it was. This building in the rough.
"I guess so." He confirmed in his thoughts.
-----
Czelsc opened the main door and took the moment to look around as he walked inside. He slowly closed the door behind him while keeping his body mostly forward. He didn't know anyone here. He was not going to be turning his back.
He felt like he was in the doorway far longer than he was. He felt anxious and awkward. The anxiety he has battled his life has nothing new. He looked around to see if he made eye contact with anyone as he navigated his way to the bar top.
It was loud. There was a lot of activity going on. That isn't always a bad thing... it meant that once he wasn't such a new figure that he would be able to blend in easier. At least that was the intention.
As close to the corner as he could find a stool, he took a seat. Czeslc seen someone who was certainly a bartender having to deal with a patron testing their patience, so he wasn't about to bother him. Quickly a younger guy behind the bar came up to Czeslc.
"What will you have?"
"Do you have tequila?"
The young guy laughed out a little by reaction. "Of course."
"Do you have chicken? Raw?"
Now the kid's face dropped flat.
"...What..?"
"Raw. Chicken. Do you have any unseasoned raw chicken?"
"Are you.. asking me to cook you some chicken or something?" The young bartender was visibly confused.
"No. I'm asking if you have unseasoned, uncooked, raw, chicken. That's all."
"I...Yeah... I mean... Yeah we do?" The bartender knew the answer, but didn't know *why* he had to answer.
"OK great. Then one silver tequila, double, neat. Not one thing added to it. Then also get me one plate of raw chicken meat."
Czeslc looked point blank to the bartender who was blankly confused by this whole interaction. He wasn't moving yet. He was trying to comprehend what was going on here.
"....Thank you.." Czeslc's face never flinched as he said flatly after a pause. This was to try and push the bartender to get started on his request.
Czeslc Acheron
A combination of these photos. Czeslc does not have such prominent scars. Does not have such white hair. Salty dark brown almost black hair with minor streaks of white throughout. He is more similar to the photos of Joel than the white haired animated man, who is mostly for the physical appearance to combine.
His beard is more disheveled & pretty much grown in rather than so full and clean cut. You'll notice again, more like Joel than the clean cut white beard.
Dark brown and reflective eyes. Sometimes honey in the sunlight.
His attire is also a combination of.
He is a falconer and has an American Kestrel named Rhae [Ray]. Here is what she looks like:
"If you waste time regretting, you'll regret the time you've wasted."
He has gone through life never fully settling down. His intentions seem self focused even though in actuality they border altruism. He isn't seeking anything, not even a meaning. He believes in having or needing a drive or a purpose but that sometimes, in the end, we may not have one after all. He seems to be just trying to see and explore what he can before he dies.

Czeslc caught up with the patrol as they returned later that night, giving Mika the time to adventure on her own. He agreed with Crystal about giving her time.
Only some time though.
He walked over to Crystal.
"Crystal..." He asked with a slight of concern in his voice. He figured she would know exactly what he was thinking.

Huzzah :)
I work overnights so I'm going to bed now. Feel free to meta game the alpha in my absence. No worries here with any gameplay. Take care everyone I'll be on later tonight

He nodded to Crystal. An acknowledgement to her fear.
"I imagine they're fine. But the thrill of the hunt, right?" He smiled before the urge that had built had the excuse to release into a spontaneous energy of running after Mika.
