Tatiana knew where she knew this man from. He was one of the new recruits she saw before leaving the day she left to go undercover. She wrote on the notepad and walked over to him, handing him the paper. "I never really cared for that color myself, why?" The notepad had the words, "They have the room mic'd and recorded." written so it had to be held at a precise angle to read it. "I think it's time I show you the door, sir. I don't feel we have anything else to talk about." She grabbed his arm and pulled him out the door, Anastasia on their heels, pulling it shut behind her. She looked at the security cameras in the hallway as she pulled him to the elevator. As the doors opened, the bellhop was in there.
"Anya..." She pushed on his face and a flash of flame came from her hand and burned down his throat. He fell to the floor, his mouth bleeding and him not moving.
"I always hated that name. It's TatiANA!" She kicked him and used his key to call the elevator to the basement. "The elevator's bugged too, but we'll have enough time to get out of here since he's not at the desk, little snitch. I'm Tatiana, you can call me Tati [Tetch-E] for short. Never Anya. If you're after the new recruit as well as gray, I'm guessing it's important. When we get down there, we'll only meet Gray as resistance, but he's a very effective Wind elemental, one of our best who teaches the new recruits. I'm the middleman, the paper pusher. I've got enough information to get help us a little in this drive," she pulled out a small drive from her purse and a notepad, "and this pad for what they'd know if I made digital copies." They were on a high floor and it felt like it was taking forever to get to the basement. "By the way, I'm Tatiana, this is Anastasia and I KNOW YOU! I saw you before I went undercover in Signet. Who are you? What can you do?" They were only about halfway to the basement at this point and Tati was getting nervous that they wouldn't have time to get out before reinforcements got called. "Boy I hope you're an Earth elemental or we may not make it out of here."
Gray walked around the floor, his steps seeming to echo around the entire basement. Jack couldn't concentrate with everything else trying to work itself out in his head. "Come on. I can do this. It's simple. I could probably move this with my breath. It's just like a pinwheel. In a tube," he reassured himself under his breath. He took a deep breath in and tried to calm himself. He pictured a pinwheel in his mind and blew on it, spinning and spinning. He opened his eyes. Nothing. He tried again, picturing it in the tube. Nothing. He tried to calm himself again. He pictured the pinwheel in the tube and saw himself being in the tube and blowing on the pinwheel. Just then he heard the elevator ding and turned, not seeing that the turbine was spinning. Gray started speed-walking towards the elevator.
