It was getting on well into the evening by the time Desmond and crew had made it back from the hospital, but they were still a block away from Reinhard's when he pointed off to the side of the road.
"There," he told Kian. "Pull over there a minute."
He rolled the window of the truck down so he could have words with Skye once she pulled up alongside them to find out what was going on.
Skye's bike came to a heavy purring halt beside the truck. She lifted the visor of her helmet and gave Desmond a questioning look.
"Sup?" She asked.
"Can you circle the block an' make sure we weren't followed?" he asked her.
The woman flipped her helmet down and nodded, spinning the engine in answer. Kicking off, she accelerated ahead and took the next turn, disappearing around the corner.
Kian turned back to Desmond. "As unlikely as it is we were followed.. Probably should have sent someone with her." He muttered. "She's never learned to back down from a fight when she's angry, no matter the odds.."
"It's the church that 'as me worried tonight," Desmond answered. "If there's trouble, we'll 'ear it."
"Mm." Kian hummed, sounding like a grunt and a growl at the same time. "Forgot. Another reason I feckin' 'ate the cities outside Iveria."
A bit later, Desmond would be alerted to the roar of an engine coming down the road behind them. Skye came to a stop beside them once again and pulled the visor up once more. "Nothin' to report. Seemed clear to me. Circled twice just in case."
"Aright, let's go," Desmond answered. "Take the next right, an' it'll be the abandoned office buildin' on the lef'," he told Kian. "Pull aroun' back when we get there."
