What Connor was expecting was a drug bust. He didn’t think anyone was really going to be around as he had been scoping the place out for a while now. Just to make sure he wasn’t about to die the second he looked into the warehouse. From what Connor saw, a few people came and went but it was nothing to worry to much about. Besides that it was about seven in the morning and he doubted most dealers were up at this time. In fact, Connor was almost a hundred percent sure he hadn’t seen anyone come or go around this time at any point before, so getting a better look now, was probably the best time to do so. 

Climbing out of his cruiser, Connor shut the door and walked towards the warehouse. He stepped carefully and scanned the area for anyone that might be near by. First, he did a sweep around the outside of the building. Most of the windows were blacked out, which was a bit annoying but not surprising. He doubted very many drug cartels wanted people looking in. Once he had gone around the building twice and run into no one, Connor started trying doors. 

The front was locked and he was careful to just slowly turn the knob, give it a light pull, slight push, and then let go. He didn’t want anyone inside thinking something was up. He then made his way around the back and found a side door that was unlocked. Sloppy. He pulled out his hand gun carefully from its holster and flip on his flash light as he moved quietly into the room. He shuffled forwards into a dark hallway and past a few locked doors. It was pretty quiet at the moment. 

In fact, it was way too quiet. 

Jesse could gladly say he was  rather excited to see Nick yet again.  He was one of  the few people in  a while that Jesse had taken such an instant liking towards. He  thought that being late would be a great idea to tease the other into thinking he wasn’t coming. The plan was simple but effect so he arrived 7 minutes later than he said he would purely just annoy Nick a little. It was payback for calling him a cheater during their impromptu training session earlier. It was amusing for Jesse to even think about it but he’d gladly admitted to himself that surrounded himself around Nick was a great idea. He genuinely liked him which was strange for him in the first place. It was odd gathering connections like this but this was one he’d hope would stay around for a while.

Jesse leans on the wall next to room 207 for another thirty seconds before he eventually knocks on the door a solid three times; just loud enough for Nick to hear him through the way but not loud enough to wake anyone up get a noise complaint. He smirks as he opens the door. “Woah. Would you look at the time?! I’m so sorry I’m late.” He faked gasps as he looks down at his watch to check the time. Of course this was all an act. “I’m still allowed in, right?” He said smiling genuinely up at the taller male. “I enjoy your company way too much to be cast away at the door.”

Once the vines and twigs were collected, I leaned forward and placed my index finger on the pile, letting it ignite into blue flames which slowly tamed down into a flickering fire. Ruby and Zale wanted to search the maze further, and it concerned me that they wanted to separate from us so quickly. There was strength in numbers, and we basically split up into halves, decreasing our abilities to fight as a huge group. "A-alright," I said, biting my lip. I still wasn't sure it was such a good idea, but I smiled faintly and returned Zale's kiss on his cheek. "Signal an arrow if you need our help, okay?" 

For Day 3, I made sure to step up my social game while still being able to train with weapons. Once again I was early, coming from District Two and all. I was able to call first dibs on any station that the pair from District One hasn't already claimed. The nearest was where racks filled with various spears and tridents hanged, so I made my way over to it.

With the trident in hand, I tested its weight and what I could do with the elongated weapon. I slashed against the air and nearly lost my balance. Honestly, I was incompetent with anything that wasn't knives. My weight had the advantage of being stealthy and agile, but the inability to pick heavy objects up due to my lack of upper body strength.

She was so drunk and so high at this moment that she barely knew where she were. She was now sitting on the floor, leaned against her bed as she let her eyes fall shut, taking a small moment to gather herself. She had just invited Nick up. Why did she do that? She wouldn't like seeing her like this. No one ever did. Maybe she just needed to put on her happy face? Yeah, that was what she was going to do. 

Ten minutes? How the hell was she supposed to get ready in that short ammount of time? She let out a small sigh, luckily she had showered only one hour ago, so she just needed to get changed. She was still in her pajamas. This place had done her some good at least, she felt somewhat relaxed now, more than she usually did at least. She hurried over to her closet, removing her pajamas before staring in to find something to wear. She chose a simple pair of black jean shorts and an old band t'shirt. She also grabbed a cardigan to pull over her arms and shoulders. Even though it was hot outside, she never liked showing off too much skin, and even if Nick was her best friend and knew almost everything about her, she didn't want to remind him of anything.
