Claire stepped out of the taxi, which took off immediately after, and stared at the looming building before her. There was a certain energy buzzing in the air and it felt hostile, as if something were taking place inside. Most likely it was the others from the cafe! Was someone in trouble?
Claire looked to Clarice, wondering what was going through her mind at the moment as the tall girl clenched a fist. Was she tense as Claire was? Claire felt anxiety wellup in her as she feared at the probability that not everyone inside would be as friendly as most of the people she'd met so far. What Clairce had said earlier, put her on edge and she took her word to heart.
"If it came down to it...would I even be able to protect myself?" Claire muttered. She took a breath, clenching and unclenching her hands as she felt her power flowing through her hands.
No...not yet...Just be ready. She told herself.
“So this is that place right, Claire?” Clarice asked her.
Claire nodded.
"Yeah, that should be it." Clarice took the lead as they walked forth and knocked on the door.
"Excuse me! We're here for a Matthew Duroe. He gave us this card and wanted to see us!" Claire announced. Just then a male approached from behind them and stood to the rear. Claire eyed him, suspecting that he was also here for this "Matt" figure. There was movement at the corner of her vision and she also noticed a male turn the corner.
Claire pointed at both of them.
"You're here for this guy too?" She brandished the card and waved it at them.
