Nic paused before nodding a little.

"We don't have much of a place for you to start either. Kale tends to drift all over. I can show you the area where he's supposed to be searching but there's no guarantee that he was ever there," she explained before zooming in on the map.

Nic took all the information Snow was able to give him and asked all the right questions. It seemed like he had some experience with something of this nature in the past. When he was done talking to Snow, he went to find Laurel.

Laurel was in the dance studio but she wasn't exactly dancing. It looked like she was practicing her fighting moves, incorporating her dancing skills into it. She was getting fairly good.

Nic waited for her to notice him.

It took Laurel awhile. She was very focused, her eyes flashing a little more blue than usual. But finally she caught a glimpse of him in the mirror smiled, "Oh! Hey!" she welcomed him as she went over to greet him with a kiss.

Nic kissed her lightly back. As usual, he got to the point. "I'm going to look for Kale," he told her.

Laurel blinked, "Huh?" she asked, a little blindsided, "Kale?"

Nic nodded, giving her a few more quick details about the situation.

"... How long will you be gone?" Laurel asked quietly.

"I don't know," Nic replied.

Laurel was starting to fidget a little, "Can I... come too?" she asked.

"It's a one person job," Nic explained.

It looked like Laurel was trying to hold something in. As usual, it didn't quite work and some of her fear made it through. "... right..." she whispered, taking in a slightly shuttering breath, "Safe trip then." She forced a little smile.

"... I will need a few hours to prepare," Nic replied. "Do you still want to have lunch together?"

Laurel hesitated before nodding slightly.
