Reed slowly walks down the hall to the elevator, his worn out boots making very little noise. In the elevator, he removes and pockets his ski mask, shaking his shoulder length har to make it neat. As Reed steps outside, he looks around him, assesing the parking lot for any potential threats. (OOC: New cars, people sitting in cars, or loitering about, etc.)
I guess my only lead is Desiderio's. If Howard was meeting someone else there, they must be at the resteraunt already. It's probably a bad idea to start dialing random numbers on Howard's phone right now, but Howard did say something about bringing Lex to the Russian. Oblomov sounds like a pretty Russian name to me. Best to wait, probably to call this Oblamov guy. Hang on! What if all of this is a setup to bring me into a trap? This is big problem.
Reed's brow wrinkles at the dificult decision that has been forced on him. The wrinkles seem perfectly natural on a face acustomed to worrying.
Whoever this guru guy Howard was with was obviously against Them, and I've been running for too long. I want to help the guru...unless the guru is made up too. I guess it's worth the risk. If They knew about me, They'd just find me and kill me, all this secret efort would be a waste of time. I suppouse that decides it then. I'll go to Desiderio's and see if I can find the guy Howard wanted to meet.
As Reed drives past Desiderio's to get an idea of his surroundings, he sees the crowd of panicked patrons fleeing through doors that are too small to fit all of them. He also sees the sprinkelers spraying water on a largely imaginary fire. His releif is visible when he sees there is no smoke.
It looks like something's up in ther. I bet it's Them. This can't possibly be a coincidence.
Reed swings his car into a parking spot vacated only a moment earlier by a patron. He pulls on his ski mask again and steps out of the car. He looks over the throng of people, checking to see if Lex is among them. He also keeps an ear out for the wailing of sirens. Also, he draws his revolver, holding it low and out of easy sight to prevent any further panic in the stampeding crowd.
(OOC: At what point in the fight would I be arriving. Also, what kind of windows does Desiderio's have, and can Reed see the fight inside. If they're big picture windows, then Reed will just smash one and step in)
