Alister and Maple rushed back to Alisters house, “Go let Emerald know, I have to go into hiding for awhile. She knows where I'll be!” Alister said to Maple, nodding and running off in the direction of the club. Running inside Alister called out to Tesla and got no reply. “She must be out right now, I better leave a message.” Alister thought to himself. Running to his work table he grabbed a small crystal sphere engraved inside. Turning it over so the rabbit was upside down Alister knew Tesla would understand the meaning behind it.
Reaching behind the TV, Alister pulled out a backpack filled with various survival necessities. After grabbing what he needed, Alister ran into his workshop, hitting a few switches on the wall upon entering. The motorcycle that was lifted in the air on chains fell to the ground being lowered by the chains. A silver box sat on Alister and Teslas workbench with a note on it, the note reading, “Alister i went to the scrap heap to find some extra parts, don't worry I have Lofty with me so I'll be safe don't worry and I'll see you when i'm home, Tesla. P.S. I finished the modifications on your pistol that you asked for and your little project that you finished are both in the box.” Alister smiled and put the box into his backpack.
Alister heard a knock from inside his house, causing him to go into a frenzy. Pulling up his security cameras he saw the two people that Maple saw at the market knocking. “How'd they find me so fast? Only a few people know where I live!” Grabbing his mask and putting it on, Alister got onto his motorcycle starting it up. Outside Apollo looked at Esdeath asking, “You sure this is the right place? Nobody seemed to know about it.” Esdeath let out an audible sigh and kicked open the door. “This is clearly the right place, trust me, the guy I shakedown wouldn't lie with his life on the line!” Esdeath said walking inside the home.
That's when they heard the sound of a motorcycle starting up, “Head outside I'll cut him off in here,” Esdeath barked to a sarcastic yes mother from Apollo. Esdeath did a quick sweep and calmly walked to the door on the far wall, her ice pick in hand. Opening the door she saw Alister begin riding off through the opening garbage door. “STOP HIM!” Esdeath shouted to Apollo outside who drew a collapsible bow and arching an arrow. Alister saw the bow and began swerving to avoid the oncoming arrows. He quickly drove through a gap in a couple garbage piles shouting behind him “NICE SHOOTING IDIOT!”
“Damnit, how'd you let him get away!” Esdeath said, running out to an angry Apollo. “Me?! Why didn't you stop him inside!?” Apollo snapped the two staring each other down. The two went inside to try to find clues as to where Alister could have gone. A black smokey figure watches the two go back into the garage from a nearby garbage stack. Emerald's eyes narrowed as she let her body evaporate into the air, thinking to herself, “Nobody would give up Alister so one of them must have put a tracker on him or they must know him personally. I better head to Shackles tower, that's where Alister will go to hide.”
