The thief ran across the room and onto the alley, quickly followed by Kurt Fox, his victim. As he exited, he pushed a man in the pursuer's path but Kurt easily avoided the man with a nicely executed jump that barely slowed him down. Without looking back, the thief crossed a road, almost injuring himself as cars stopped to let him pass. Hot on his tail was Kurt, still chasing the thief down. The robber quickly turned down an alley and hid in one of the many barrels lying on the asphalt. The pursuer, having lost his target, waited for a single sound to indicate the thief's position -he couldn't have gone too far-. The thief, however, took the time to analyse what he had just stolen : a semi-good quality phone worth at least one hundred dollars. A smile started to form on his face the instant before the phone ruined his day with a cheap electronic ringtune. Followed by a kick to the barrel and the feeling of blood on the back of his head as it smashed against the concrete. The phone slid out the barrel. The young man took back his phone and answered it : "Hi... Who is this..?" He asked, curious to know who would call him at this unexpected time. "Whaaat !? Oh man, it's been so long !... Uhuh... Yeah... Alright, I'll be there." he turned to the thief. "Nice chase back there, next time though, pick on someone your own size." And at that, Kurt left in a hurry. It seems like that phone call was very important.
1 hour and 12 minutes later...
Kurt Fox was now running on the rooftops, rushing to go to the rendez-vous point the person on the phone had set for a few hours ago. Yes, he knew he was going to be late, but Kurt didn't seem to care as he was enjoying the moment, quickly jumping from building to building. He felt the adrenaline rush in his veins as he leaped from a tall building. He felt the wind whistle in his short black hair as he flew across the gap. He felt his reflexes kick in as his small figure rolled over the hard surface. He felt his black T-shirt and his dark blue jeans barely keeping up with him as he ran at an impressive speed. For him, this was one of the best feelings in the world. Kurt stopped. His light green eyes scanned the area, looking for any trace of anyone that would be following him. When he thought he was safe, he descended into the road and followed the path that would lead him to his destination.
37 minutes later...
Just as Cyrus asked for names, Kurt burst through the entry door. Exausted, he said :"Hey guys... Sorry I'm... late." He leaned against the wall, catching his breath. He looked around him, the bar was in a good enough shape to be considered an HQ and the others seemed good for the job. Kurt thought : "We have a mission, we have a plan, we have able hands and we have an HQ. Maybe the assassins aren't so screwed after all..".
