"To get some fresh air. Can I do that?" He said that last sarcastically as he kept walking towards the door.

"Fine. I'll do all the work myself then," Julianna snaps, turning on her heel to go down an adjoining hallway towards the part of the castle that the library was in.

Frost walked out side and called someone on the phone, asking them to bring him some list of assorted weapons. After he puts them in place, Julianna walks out of the building. "Ready now?"

Julianna nods and says, "We're in luck. The pride's currently centered in a city not only a couple hundred miles from Hogsmeade." She holds up the printout from mapquest that shows road directions. "Only complication is that the city's primarily muggles." Folding up the paper, she tucks it into her small traveling bag, and says, "I left a note for Janelle. Everything's set." She pauses, then busies herself with looking through her bag for something so she wouldn't have to look at him when she says, "You don't have to come if you don't want to. I can wait for the others to get back from Vegas, then take Autumn with me. Telepathy would work as well as clairvoyance."

"Don't worry about it, come here. Let me see the map." He looks at it and then holds out his hand towards her, "Let's go."

"I mean, if you're going to be a prick on this whole trip, I'm not forcing you to come," Julianna says, still avoiding his gaze. She looks at his hand and says, "How exactly do you plan on getting us there?"

He pulls her into a hug and says in a less hostile voice, "I'm sorry. What I saw and the emotions I get from it... it created a rage that consumed me. I want these people paid back. I will stop bickering, but after I kill these people, I can't see you anymore tonight." He lifts her head up and quickly kisses her. "This might feel weird, we're going to 'fly' there."

Slowly, tentatively, Julianna slides her arms around his waist and says quietly, voice unsteady, "Just don't think that you're the only one afraid of losing something because of this whole thing." She pauses, then says, "Fly? But it's hundreds of miles.."

"I'm not going anywhere... I've told you that. And yes, we are going to fly. That's why it might feel wierd, cuz we will be going very very fast. You just have to hang on." And with that, they're gone. They land in the city and Frost let's Julianna go, but keeps a hand on her elbow, just in case she fell.

Julianna stumbles a bit at first, but after a moment regains her balance and can stand by herself. She finally meets his gaze and says, "Don't make any promises you can't keep."

He lets go of her arm and says, "But, I can keep this one... don't you get that by now? I've seen.... never mind. We can finish this conversation later. Right now, we have work to do. Lead the way."

Julianna sighs, than takes the paper out of her bag again. She looks around to find a street sign, then consults the map. "Alright.. We're not too far I think. The address I got is a cafe run by some of the pride. [*innocent look* what?] Looks to be three blocks from here."

"Well, then. Lets go. Here I have these for you." He holds out two hand guns and a laser and says, "Sometimes, claws aren't what you need. He hands them to her and turns to walk in the direction she pointed to on the map.

[So not stealing it from the book series i'm reading! lol. Laser guns...like you pull the trigger and it shoots out a laser that cuts and blows stuff up, lmao.]
"So what's your plan? Are we going to go in blazing or are we going to be discreet and sneaky?"

[lmao, nope, not at all!]
"There's no way to tell who's going to be in the cafe. And there's muggles everywhere - they'd call the cops if we just swooped in and started killing. That would be a nuisance. So we count on the fact that they don't want to risk exposure and we play by the rules."

"Fine, you take the lead and I'll follow. I think that's the Cafe right there..." He points ahead and buttons up his trench coat, to hide the weapons

Julianna stops walking and looks at the building, then nods. "That's it. The Lunatic Cafe." She turns to face Frost, looks him over, and says, unable to resist, "I hope you know you look like a flasher." Somehow, though, there was a trace of affection in the verbal jab. Then suddenly she reached out, grabbing him by the lapels of the trenchcoat and pulling him to her. Pressed against the line of his body, she stood on tiptoe and kissed him, fierce and lingering. It was a goodbye, and it felt like it. Without another word, she turned and walked towards the door of the cafe.

Frost smiles at her and says, "Really? I wasn't aware..." When she kisses him, he kisses her back forcefully, then when the kiss broke, he grabbed her by the hand and pulled her back saying, "Whoa, what was that for?" He smiled and held her close.

Biting her lip to force unshed tears back, she whispers before pulling out of his grasp and going for the door again, "Because I know I won't be able to later." It was a somewhat vague answer, and could hold a few different meanings, but the way her voice shook slightly made it pretty clear what she meant.
