Dante looked at the young man that Elena had pinpointed through the open windows of the diner. He was focusing on a piece of paper on the table when a young woman walked up to him with plates of food in hand. At the sigh of food, Dante felt his stomach twist. He wasn't hungry at the moment, really, but he could tell that his body would be craving food soon. It wasn't an unknown feeling for him, but knowing that they had food that wasn't like Area 53's right in front of them was tempting enough for him to consider taking a little money out of their stash to treat themselves to some food. But that would get them nowhere further from Area 53 so he nodded and started to walk to the diner with Elena.
Before they got there, he took out the map and looked at it with the light from the outside light. The city San Francisco was circled in blue ink. They had been taught how to read maps, but the problem was there was no way to get there by foot on time.
Upon opening the door, a little bell rang above. Dante's eyes flitted up, his body tensing for a moment until he saw where the sound came from. With a small sigh, he stepped inside, waiting for Elena to pass through. As the two walked past the tables, Dante looked around at the scarce faces inside of the diner. What if a scientist was out here and saw them? The thought couldn't help but make him worry. He was ready to do whatever in order to get away from that if the moment came, he was sure, but in a public place like this... he wasn't sure how well the mix between rage and uncontrolled powers would turn out. Superhumans knew not everyone was like them, but even though the scientists hadn't told them, Dante was sure that the world didn't know about them, or else they wouldn't have been so secluded from the outside.
The walk to the table wasn't more than a few meters away from the door, but it felt like an eternity. When they finally came up, Dante took a second to look down at the young man and gather his thoughts. He knew the two would have to probably be very nice and very careful in respect to what they told this young man, if they wanted to learn how to get to their destination. But Dante didn't want to say where specifically either since he was worried they would trace them.
"Excuse us," he said after a second, to get the stranger's attention, "Hi, sorry to bother you, but we're traveling and we were wondering if there was any way to... catch a ride west around here. Hopefully tonight."

[justify]Natalia had gone back to the back counter to get a few seconds of sitting down, not seeing any other customers calling for her help right away. Her eyes turned towards the door when she heard the familiar bell sound. So close to her shift ending, a new customer meant serving but no tip since the next employee would probably come in before them finishing. Natalia frowned slightly at the boy's reaction to the bell and was getting two more menus from next the cash register when she saw them walk up to the table she had just served. She was about to walk towards them when she saw a man at the table next to theirs raise his hand and call for more coffee. With a small nod, Natalia took the coffee with her other hand and walked towards the older man first, seeing that the two new people hadn't sat down right away.
