Blaze did follow Kale carefully.

Eventually they came to a little niche. It looked like Kale had been camping out there. There were a couple of wrappers that had fallen from his bag. Notably, the wrappers were not from candy but different protein bars. Kale tried to pick them up before Blaze noticed.

Blaze didn't notice, didn't care, or had emotionally removed herself like Kale had suggested.

Kale motioned for her to take a seat on the ground as he pulled out a tablet. He flipped over the virtual screen and a map opened. Blaze would recognize it as the surrounding area. Kale explained where he had first spotted Hayden. He'd followed him for awhile just to be certain. He told Blaze that it was odd Farren was no in sight. Farren was always in the same area Hayden. That, more than anything, was making Kale suspicious and a bit nervous. Until he found Farren and figured out what Hayden was doing here, he wouldn't be sending any messages back to Wolfe. Farren was as big of a genius with technology as Zala was with math.

Blaze nodded, listening to everything Kale said.

When Kale finished he put the map away, "He's staying in that hotel," he motioned to the right, "He goes out every night and tonight, I'm going to investigate his room."

Blaze nodded, waiting to be told her job.

"I need a look out," Kale explained, watching Blaze.

Blaze nodded even though she looked a little bored.

"We have a few hours until the sun sets enough to start," Kale said quietly before pausing, "Are you hungry?"

Blaze shook her head and didn't look like she wanted to talk.

Kale didn't seem to either. He crept back over the ledge and started watching the street again.

So Blaze rested while Kale watched, waiting for the sunset.

Laurel looked over at Nic, getting more and more irritated as he continued to sleep peacefully. Suddenly she lashed out with her fist and punched Nic rather hard on his side.

Frei's eyebrows were creased sightly but in Frei body language it was a full pout. The growing jaguar sat in her lap as she stroked it's head.

Normally, that would have woken him up. But he seemed dug in there like a tick as he started slipping, in danger of tipping over.

"... I thought you were going to give her to Laurel," Raven sighed.

Laurel blinked, he wasn't in a normal sleep? She slowly frowned before punching his side again, a bit harder.

Frei continued to pout, "She's got so many..." she said quietly.
