02; Audio || Forward-dated to March 27th, late afternoon

[When the audio feed initializes, and Nathan actually speaks, he sounds controlled, but only barely.]

Hey. So. Does anybody know Airy Miller? She left the library earlier today, I assume to go look for a job, but it's been hours and now she's not answering when I call. She's, uh, about 5'5", slim but not skinny, long brown hair, cute nose, adorable smile. Really bubbly?

Private // Toby Allaway

[Because he doesn't know your number, man.]

I thought you said you were going to keep an eye on her.

[It wasn't much of a hassle to keep up with Toby. Nathan was just as anxious to find her, and that meant moving at whatever pace he needed to. He nodded at the cup.]

No shit. I have her coffee in that cup.

[Toby ignores Nathan's tone and reaches down into the trash can. A small amount of liquid is left but it's enough.]

She was drugged.

[He drops the cup back into the trash can. He knows a few drugs himself but the scent of this one is new. Judging by the fact that there wasn't any noise or a struggle, it probably meant that this was used to knock her out.]

...drugged? [His breathing quickened, but he took a couple controlled breaths to get control of himself again.] Drugged and taken where?

[Toby glares at Nathan.]

I'm working on it.

[He steps swiftly, pacing back and forth before pausing at the table. She's been carried and it'd be easier to follow if he knew the scent of the one who took her. After a moment he finds, what he believes, is the correct scent.]

This way.

[He sets off, leaving the library and hitting the streets.]

[Nathan was normally a little intimidated by Toby's size, but when he was worried, nothing else could enter his mind except that. Nathan glared right back and the large werewolf as if to say 'well, work on it faster'.

A look of relief crossed his features when Toby called him, and he was following the were closely as they left the library.]

[Toby walks with a purpose and says nothing to Nathan. He doesn't much care to be snapped at and given the time since Airy's vanished the trail will so go cold. He pauses at the Attleton archway and growls.

He looks back at Toby with a look of someone who is ready to kill.]

The sent ends, so she's taken through here.

[He steps through and once on the other side he begins to pace to pick up the scent again. He hates these archways, how the smell and atmosphere changes in a instant.]

[Toby was gone through the archway before Nathan could even respond and he steps through after the guy, watching him pace with growing concern.]

...so...?

Wait.

[His voice came out in a low growl sounding more animal than human. She was carried which meant that her scent didn't linger on the ground and if that made it hard enough he wasn't used to Attleton. He was pacing for almost a half hour before a faint trace of the familiar shimmery scent fills his nose.]

This direction.

[He hopes that whoever took her bee-lined for their destination because the scent was so faint that he'd occasionally lose it and have to pause to find it again.]

[Toby's tone didn't bother Nathan at all. More than anything, he just paced impatiently, waiting for the werewolf to find the scent again. Every second was painful, and felt like it was putting him further and further away from Airy. He already blamed himself for her being taken back home. Now she'd been taken from under his nose again and all he could do was wait for someone else to find her.

Just like the last time. Only, this time, there weren't any birds, which made him worry. What if something had happened to her that couldn't be fixed this time?

When Toby said to move, he did so without question, falling into step behind the larger man.]

[It's a long path to their destination. Toby, while skilled and trained, is forced to handle situations that would be impossible for any other wolf. The one thing he has is determination and he isn't about to give up.

Eventually he pauses at another archway, this one a sub-archway.]

Her trail leads through there. What is this place?

[He knows less about sub-archways.]

It's...a subarchway, I think. [He's not too familiar himself.]

From what I heard, people can buy these places. They're like...little pieces of home.

...so whoever bought this one took Airy.

Yes.

[Toby looks over at Nathan.]

Are you ready?

[Nathan had no weapons, and no knowledge of using them even if he did. If he reaches out with his senses here, he can feel the latent energy funneling through the ground, as it always does, but he can't promise the same situation through this archway.

He pulls out his communicator, shooting a private text to Danny and Dave about his location before nodding.]

Sure. What's the worst that could happen?

[Toby's learned never to ask that question and without waiting longer he steps through the archway. What he doesn't expect is to be forced back out of it again. Nathan is no where to be seen and try as he might he can't get through.

A growl, low and dangerous leaves his lips as he begins pacing in front of the archway.]
