They were about to part ways when a scream split the night air. Elias jumped, spinning in its direction.
A man was thrown through plate glass. That wasn't going to go well for him, but there was no sign of the attacker.
Elias quickly snuffed all evidence of the Rage fires from his command. Even still, he continued to douse the fairy fires that the stranger continued to spit out like incoherent sputtering.
Elias didn't hide, but he wasn't stupid either. Their kind were already accused of violence, and there were witnesses. He cast a quick study of those nearest in case any fingers pointed their way.
Then the date sprinted away. Elias frowned from the depths of black hair framing his face, but rooted in place, he didn't follow.
Until the fairy-guy lured him in. He looked like he was about to pee his pants.
Elias didn't blame him.
He growled inwardly like he knew this was a bad idea and followed the trail across the street. Uniformed security swarmed from the lobby, but their guns were useless. Hell, Elias and all the powers of Rage were useless now.
"Gory," he said more to himself than his companions as he peered down at the mess of the body. The security guards rushed back indoors at the behest of potential victims within. Elias had no problem with leaving, and he was no hero to rush into a burning building and rescue the damned.
He might have left them alone, until a name pricked his ears.
Nox wasn't a common name. Tie the name with that of someone who can use the powers of Rage, and there had to be only one guy in the entire city that they meant.
His face darkened.
Fists balled, Elias frowned, looked at the two one last time like he hated them for pulling him into this. He sighed, called on the powers of Rage until that darkness contorted the edges of his face, hungry for more of the power to fill him.
He stepped over the window, coat snagging on the jagged edges, utility boots safely crunching glass unconcerned for the safety of his limbs. Rage sharpened his eyesight. Nostrils flared wide with the stench of chemistry lab heavy on the air - sulfur. Gross.
He didn't know what he would find, but at least he'd find it before Nox.
