"Oh don't hit me please." The one who lifted the tablecloth to check under the table politely asked Ethan, noticing his fist clenched and poised to strike. It was Alex, safely returning to the couple accompanied by a rough-looking but otherwise non-hostile, silver-haired man behind her.

Austin had a smile on his face.

"Poetic, spoken like a true artist. I don't understand a damn thing you said."

He looked at his books.

"... Let's see... Hatchet, Amped -- not sure what that one is -- and- Wait, is this the Cat in the- again? I swear... Anyways, what time is it? I really don't want to be late."

((It's 8))

The faint smile on the blondeīs face didnīt change as she made a small explanation "What I mean is that we can all work together instead of fighting for the bigheads on both sides, letīs hope that the next time we meet though, isnīt with cross-hairs but with books at hand" she said and looked at her watch "It is close to eight PM, I also got things to do"

The specialist got up from the chair and looked at Austin "See you then, maybe we can have another chat here or in another neutral zone". And with that, Sara walked to both leave her book and then to the exit

Ethan was ready to strike the person entering the underside of the table with all of his might, but when he was greeted by Alex's familiar face, Ethan slowly lowered his fist and let out a faint breath as he tried to wind down. He was still angry about what was happening with the sniper, and it was clear from the look in his eyes that he was on the verge of action against the Corrupt in the building.

"Sorry.", Ethan said as his fist rested itself against the floor.

As Ethan let out another faint breath, he noticed the silver-haired man behind her, but since he did not appear to be hostile, Ethan simply asked who the man was.

"Who's he?", Ethan asked Alex.

Austin waved goodbye.

"I hope you like the performance tonight! Any be careful! She's more dangerous than she seems!"

Austin put his hand down.

"... I really hope to f*cking sanity that Nitro gets the package in. That Sam character is no fool."

He went to check out the books. He laid down the books and got a weird look from the librarian.

"There a problem, buddy?" Austin said menacingly.

The librarian shook his head calmly. He checked out the books.

"..."

He kicked an aluminum support beam in out of anger.

"WHO THE HELL DOES HE THINK HE IS?! I'LL KILL HIM ONCE HE GOES-... no, no... I'll spare him today. But only because I'm in such a good mood."

"He's-" Alex began, but she realized. Due to all the ordeals, the mercenary and her wasn't even acquainted with the exchange of names. She basically exposed her underwear to someone who she didn't even know the name of. That idea made Alex slightly blush as she continued. "We actually forgot to introduce ourselves, did we? The name is Alex."

"What's so-" Nitro looked back to find Alex and a silver-haired man behind her. Finding that her friend was alright and well, she couldn't help but have teary eyes as she pounced at Alex. "Oh Alex I was so worried-"

"Ssssh, quiet down, Nitro." Alex looked around, worried that Nitro's outburst might've caught an unwelcome attention. Thankfully, none of the Corrupt agents nor the crowd noticed. "I'm glad you two are safe."

Drake had stealthily followed Alex to the table where Ethan and Nitro were hiding, and shortly after Alex had ducked under the table, Drake had done so as well. Coming face-to-face with Jason who looked calm, angered, and ready to attack anyone he might is an threat. While the other girl was pretty youthful looking. Young, and pretty attractive, but Drake has seen better. However that wasn't his biggest concern right now, right now he was more concerned about what they were going to do. Though when Alex realized that they didn't introduce each other earlier. Even though he was wanting to figure out what to do Drake did sigh.

"The name's Drake. Sorry for not saying earlier, but right now I think we have more important problems at hand right now."

Ethan quietly watched as Nitro hugged Alex with a teary smile and listened to Drake before looking back outside the table and observing the chaos. This new guy, Drake, had a point about them needing to act, but it wasn't like they could simply emerge from the table an charge after every Corrupt in the club. Ethan wanted to directly attack the Corrupt badly, but knew that he would have to approach the situation intelligently. They were out gunned, outnumbered, and outmatched. They didn't even have weapons to defend themselves. The only thing Ethan had was his phone... his phone.

Sure, Ethan had modified his phone to be a hacking phone, but he did not expect to have to use it so soon. In fact, he didn't even have time to test the phone's capabilities in a controlled environment yet, and he did not like the idea of giving it a "trial by fire", but as the entire situation currently stood, it was either that, or death. With that in mind, Ethan looked over to Nitro and spoke.

"Nitro, can I see my phone?", Ethan asked Nitro as he outstretched an open hand.

San Francisco - en route to Theater

Sara was enjoying the climate as she walked towards the location that the alleged head of DCERT wanted to meet her, she had questions in her mind about the situation with the man himself coming to such place instead of sending one of his trusted people, then again, if things were true, this manīs trust was next to impossible to obtain unless of specific and extraordinary requisites were achieved.

Her other question was about the lady who controlled the Theater, from hat Austin told her, this woman was on her prime element and had the advantagge of being in the home field, yet, the blonde had an advantage against said person. It was the fact that she was faction-less, this fact was what kept the specialist alive since the war started, sure she helped the DCERT from time to time, but from all the times she pulled the trigger, it was for being the second one to shoot, something that earned her some hits to endure. She always tried to stop the battle with the less blood spill possible.

("Letīs see how this woman shows her cards") The specialist thought heading to her destination.

"Oh." Nitro let go of Alex as she came to a realization: she was still holding on Ethan's cell phone. She chuckled lightly so that the listening ears would not hear the commotion and handed Ethan his phone.

After being handed his phone, Ethan minimized the call and opened up a new program. After that, Ethan looked over to the others and spoke.

"If we're going to do something, we'd better do it now. I doubt that the police are going to get here before everyone in this club dies, so we need to think of a way to end this. What needs to happen first?", Jason asked the group in a rather serious yet quiet tone.
