Nox wasn't really looking to fight monsters, and chupacabras were nothing in comparison to those tainted things down in the tunnels of Moscow. The bite was not good but he didn't exactly intend for them to get close enough to bite him, but without Aria he was hesitant to kill anything without his own personal bodyguard. The thought made him smile she'd saved him more times than he could count.
But Enrique had offered him a free beer. He couldn't refuse that. Nox looked around in his make shift home away from home, it was the first time he'd stayed in a place proper, he'd been happy to grab a camp on the side of the road, but the shower called to him.
He was in and out of the shower quickly, the cold beer was calling his name, he could hear it. Nox pulled on a pair of jeans and grabbed the one of the only clean shirts he had left. They were clean for one very specific reason - they were white. White got dirty way too fast, but this was his last stop and he really had no other choice. Nox pulled on the t-shirt that said It's all fun and games until someone loses a wiener with a bunch of stick figures sitting around a campfire roasting hot-dogs.
Nox opted not to put on his hoodie, it was too hot outside to warrant it and he was going to go for a run later anyway. His tattoo would be sitting out in the open, but he was in an Atharim safe house, it was probably good to identify himself just in case. He hoped.
Upstairs the bar had a few patrons, one sitting at the bar nagged at Nox. But he didn't stare as he sat down a stool to his left and nodded to the bartender. "I'll have another bottled beer, unopened please."
He didn't really know what he'd done with the one he'd started with. Nox couldn't remember if he took it with him or not.
The bartender brought Nox his unopened beer. Nox took the power in his grasp and used it carefully so no one really saw what he was doing as he popped the cap off. There was no one to show off in front of, and it felt good to hold the power for a little while and use it. Driving had become so monotonous over the weeks he was using any excuse he could find to use his gift. But that was probably a very stupid thing to do while in an Ahtarim strong hold - shit! Nox let the power go and took a swallow of the beer. What other way could he fuck today up with.
