"Hey. Let's go, were short on time."
He heard Jason pull up to him in his car. He took his time getting to his feet before getting in the passengers seat. Once in he put his seat belt on and off they were again.
"Alright, what we're doing now is getting a man named Ayers Mackenzie. You may have heard about Big Sniper, and they say he's a witness to one of their assassinations. He's at North Boulevard and we're going to put him in protective police custody. If this goes smoothly, we'll have enough time to investigate the case from yesterday."
Suddenly the radio kicked to life. "Attention all units, a jewelry store off of Bradmere Lane has just been robbed. I repeat, a jewelry store off of Bradmere Lane has just ben robbed. All nearby units, please respond." It crackled.
Huh. Typical police stuff I guess. He figured, still listening to what Jason had to say.
"Anyway, if you check the glove box, you can see a file on the man we're going to collect. There's also a temporary badge for you in there. Pin it anywhere you want, as long as it's visible. My supervisor told me to report how you do today, and if you do well he'll consider putting you on the force."
He opened the glove box and collected both the file on Ayers Mackenzie as well as the badge. Great. Today's my day to show how I handle being a cop and I'm exhausted and I haven't even had my coffee yet. He mentally griped about the pressure that was suddenly on him as he pinned the temporary badge on his shirt. He yawned again, not quite as big a yawn but still a lengthy one. He wasn't feeling as tired now that he had some time to wake up but he was still pretty low.
"Oh, and there's a spare gun I keep in there too. You can borrow it if you want."
Allan's eyebrows went up a little bit. He didn't expect to be handling a gun as he technically wasn't a police officer quite yet. "It's alright. I'll take it if it looks like it'll be absolutely necessary. We're just picking a witness or something right?" He didn't take the gun for now but committed it to memory just in case. He was already flipping through the pages on the file, skimming over the details which seemed pertinent to him.
As they were going on Jason seemed to catch on that he wasn't feeling one hundred percent fine.
"Hey... are you feeling okay? You look like you didn't get any sleep at all last night. You also look a little sick."
Jason brought it up. Suddenly without much prompt Jason had reached out and put his hand over his forehead. "Huh. You're kinda warm too." He observantly pointed out before taking his hand off. He was right in that regard but Allan didn't want the topic to suddenly move onto him seeing as how he was being tested for the police force that very minute.
"Yeah, I don't think I slept very well. Anyways, yesterday you mentioned something relating to that whole business relating to some supernatural stuff involving Nephilims and... Cambions? I think that's what you called them. Anyways, I was hoping to talk with you more about that since you seem to know quite a bit about that stuff and I have something that might relate to what you were talking about." Perhaps not the best conversational segue but then again Allan was never a great conversationalist. He looked around, checking out the windows and such. They had some privacy inside the car but not enough for him to be comfortable showing his power off in it. "I think it'd be best if I showed you what I mean somewhere people can't get a peek. I'd rather keep it discreet and such." He most certainly fumbled his words but hopefully his meaning came across in the way he hoped it did.
He had only just met this guy and now this guy was probably going to be the first other person to see this. The thought made him almost squirm in his seat but after hearing a bit about what the guy knew about all this supernatural stuff he wouldn't have much hope of finding out more without showing a little of his side of the story.
A show and tell.
