Mahagony Belle kept backing away from the newcomers, hoping they didn't see her. Since her wings were hidden under her jacket, it wouldn't be immediately apparent that she was not a normal human, but she still felt the need to get the hell out of dodge. "Look, I'm getting out of here, kid," she aid to 654. "See ya later...if you get out of this mess somehow." Then she turned tail and ran home.

AJ nodded, following close after Alexander. She took a deep breath as he walked along with Alexander, her eyes looking up at the male as they walked along. "Okay...let's find some food." She said softly as she walked with him.

AJ took a deep breath as she approached another cafe, gazing in to look at the sandwich board for the prices. "Here's one we can now afford." She said softly, pulling him in slowly.

Jack apnted as the steam went away. "damn it!" He saw a sewer drain and he ran and dove for it as he tried his hardest to turn into tar and escaped into it.

Virgil had been struck in the shoulder by one of the little darts. He quickly pulled it out and had to concentrate as hard as he was able just to teleport down to Carson. Without another word Virgil jumped again, leaving behind his and his brother's shoes and appearing about a mile down the street before Virgil lost consciousness.
"Who the hell were those people?" Carson asked to no one in particular as he carried Virgil down the street, hoping the fuss Jack and Kyo caused would distract those guys with the power neutralizing hardware.

AJ looked at him quietly. Living as she had, she had learned to do math - rather well, actually. Well enough that she could do tipping and other things in her head easily, along with tax. "The price. I liked the price." She answered easily as they were seated, looking around. She was quick to simply order water to drink, knowing that water would be free whereas other drinks could amount to high prices.

Then it was true that she didn't know how to read. "Do you know what you're going to order then?" he asked with an eyebrow raised. "I may be of assistance. We don't want to get the cheapest thing but not get our money's worth for it." Okay. So that may be unlikely. Still, he wanted to contribute something, if only his education.□□□□□□□□□□ X

 [A]shriel [J]ennalin MorganBorn, Live, and Breath...AJ nodded, looking at Alexander. She took a deep breath, not knowing even what the words were. She usually just pointed at the cheapest item on the menu. "Okay...but we have to keep under ten dollars for both of us...otherwise I don't know if we can get dinner..." She answered softly. At that point, it was lunch time. "But...if you can read the menu, it would be helpful." And try not to get caught. [-Mouse got bored...-]

X X X X X Alexander took one of the menus and propped it up at an angle. It felt a bit strange to be in a cafe. I had been a while since he'd stepped into any place that sold food. He took his time looking at the menu, comparing prices and imagining quantities of food choices in his mind. He eventually made his decision and confronted AJ with it.
X X X X X "How does the Tuna Salad Sandwich sound? It has avocado, tomatoes, and alfalfa sprouts with a side of potato chips for $8.95. I can take half of that. Feed me any more than that and I'll explode." He looked up from the menu at AJ. "Would you like something else with that?" □□□□□□□□□□ X X X [[ OOC: I'm looking at a Cafe menu for reference. ]]

[A]shriel [J]ennalin MorganBorn, Live, and Breath...AJ watched Alexander carefully as he read the menu, feeling awkward as she sat there. She'd never really closely looked at the menu - there wasn't any point for her - she'd just figure out whichever was the cheapest thing available and get that. When he explained the dish he thought would be good, AJ nodded. "That sounds good...it's been a long time since I've had any sort of sandwich. Let's just stick with that - then I can just give them a ten and not end up with odd change needing to be added on top of it." She answered easily as she looked at Alexander, fidgeting as she sat there. And try not to get caught.

Doing math in his head quickly was beyond his abilities.
X X X X X "I picked the tuna salad because my past experiences with anything tuna was, it gets me full rather easily."

[A]shriel [J]ennalin MorganBorn, Live, and Breath...AJ nodded, watching him as he remained silent for a minute. "You think so? I've...I've just had to learn to do math. No matter what you do, if you can't do math - you're screwed. Especially if you can't afford to tote around a calculator." She answered quietly, looking about. After a moment, her eyes caught a free waiter. She waved her hand, and the waiter came over to them. AJ looked at Alexander, unsure of how to order what he'd decided on. And try not to get caught.
