[this thread will be centered around speaking to Runa's parents and relatives. We can start another thread for their actual discovery of Felicia, Rajah and Rowan]
The fastest Human transport was an airplane, but for Runa it couldn't move fast enough. There was something in her that told her that if Felicia ever left, she would be in Spain, but there was also a part of her that wanted to know - what if Felicia had decided to somewhere else and Runa's hunch was all wrong? Everything was happening so fast. What if they missed each other? What if Felicia was on her way back to the headquarters right now? What if she was cold? What if she was starving?
Runa tried very hard to not let her worries show on her face, but it was impossible. There was nothing that she cared about more so than her sister, and through her own neglect and selfishness now she was gone, and there was a chance that she would never get her sister back, not before her family did.
As the plane landed, she all but pushed her way to the front of the line and all the way to the entrance of the airport. She did not have time to waste, and she needed to get to Madrid as quickly as possible.

Shadow watched as Runa waited for the plane to get to there destination. He watched as her as he watched her have a sense of worry on her, even though she didn't show one once of it. He, regretfully, watched as she left him behind to snatch up both their carry-on bags off the plane and explain to the people that were shoved out of the way that his "wife" was afraid of heights since she was five or six.
The whole wife thing was a cover. They had to have a reason to come to Spain after all and what not the perfect way to come on by and search for Runa's sister than to say that they were on their Honeymoon?
After countless minutes asking around for the whereabouts of Runa, Shadow finally made it to the front door of the airport to which Runa was standing by.
"Runa," Shadow started, "Are you sure you are up for this?"

Shadow had asked her if she was up to this. The real answer was no. What if they had come all of this way, and her senses were off and Felicia was nowhere to be found here? What if she was dead somewhere, lying underneath a patch of dirty near a Mortal town? What if someone had been holding her captive all this time, and she was too late?
She tried to wash all of these thoughts from her mind, and it was impossible. She was eventually going to have to deal with her parents and her family, and she knew that they were going to be difficult. Did they already know that she was missing? If they didn't, then they had the advantage. If they did, then she was dead. She knew that her mother would have no problem killing her if she thought it would bring Felicia back. Felicia was more "valuable". She was worth more. But the truth of the matter was that Runa valued her sister for more than her powers of foresight. She loved Felicia because she was a devoted sister, wise beyond her years, and they had always been there for each other. Runa would never forgive herself if Felicia wasn't found.
Taking a deep breath, she said "yeah, I'm ready," although it was with a listless expression that she filtered through the airport. "Where are we staying?" she asked, trying to distract herself from her own throughts.

Shadow knew better than to think that Runa was going to be okay but who wouldn't if they were looking for their loved one. The young Knight had to play along but still be supportive and that was something that he had a hard time of doing. he took a deep breath as he pulled out a sheet of paper, scanning it as he inch closer to Runa.
"I had someone book us at this Hotel not far from the airport," he explained, "I figure if your sister were to stop somewhere it would be there only for the simple fact that anyone can get a room for three days for free and just pay $25 in American for any more nights. She may be gone but that doesn't mean nobody didn't see her."
Shadow grabbed hold of Runa's hand and held it tightly.
"We will find her," he said as he face her and looked into her golden eyes, "Have faith."

Runa tried to keep her spirits up. "We'll find her," she repeated.
Taking another deep breath, she asked, "where do you think we should look first? Do you want to search the city outright before trying to break into my parents' place?" She was going to have to keep busy if she didn't want her sorrows to catch up with her. Madrid was an old style city, and so walking around was just about the only thing to do there. If Felicia was in Madrid, looking for her, the two of them would no doubt see her. There would be no mistake.
Her mind racing, she replied. "Okay. Nevermind that. Let's get sittled int he hotel first, and then we can make a plan about looking for Felicia."
Taking her bags, she left the gate areas, traveling down to the entrance of the airport, and out into the streets of her beloved home city. it was large, but the city itself looked like it was a revived ruin. Light was pouring everywhere, as though the sun was shoing favortism to the town. People were hustling and bustling about, and Runa knew that she was going to join them soon. She wasted no time in calling a taxi so that they could get to their hotel safely.
The ride there took several minutes, and the ride in the taxi was excruciating.

After the taxi driver handle both of their bags into the hotel and place them at the front desk, Shadow was greeted by the clerk, a woman with blond hair and a bright smile.
"Why Hello," the woman said very sweet like, "Welcome to Optifree , where your first three days of stay is free. How may I help you?"
"Uh," Shadow started, "Yes, I booked a room for me and my wife under the name Akuma."
The woman began to type in the infomation that Shadow gave her, consently looking up and down from the screen to Shadow's face with a grin. "Honestly," the woman said, "If you were not married...your room is ready for you sir. Let me just go get your room keys." The woman walked out of view from another room but not before giving Shadow a lustful look.
"So," Shadow said with his back turned, "When am I meeting your parents...again?"

Runa sighed, not even willing to worry about the woman giving Shadow glances at the front desk. He had reserved their room under the guise of them being married, and Runa couldn't help but wonder whether or not using his full name was a good idea. Her relatives kept track of everything. They had to have known that she was here.
"Hopefully, never," she said, frowning as the woman returned to them with the keys to their room. "I really want to make a plan about where we're going to go first. We have to find her. She likes cats--we can look for cat-themed places..."

Shadow turned back around to face Runa. The whole using the Akuma name around wasn't as smart but the Knight figure that her family would have found out sooner or later and the later would not be nice to say the least.
This was a new part of land for Shadow, who mostly did most of the jobs around Japan, his home. It was a while that he left HQ it to hime it was good for a change to leave the office.
"What cat-theme places do you know of Runa?" Shadow questioned, "This is your home anyway..."

Runa could only remember places that they had gone in their childhood. But Felicia had only gone there with her because too many people actually did not want stray cats wandering in. "There's a decent shelter for cats nearby. Considering that she used to have friends over there, we can check there. I just...the problem is that she tends to visit places that are magical nowadays--the last time she went off on her own, she ended up in a hangout for youkai. I don't know were the magical places are here, because it's been so long since I've actually explored my home. When I was staying with my parents, we just...stayed at home, and went off for missions where we were assigned. I would have to get a map from somewhere..." The woman who returned from back with their keys shot her a look of venom, which Runa ignored. "Here are your keys," the woman said, handing the keys to Shadow, and not her. Runa said plainly. "May I speak to your manager?" The woman paled. "Ah...well, I am more than qualified to answer any questions that you may have..." "No, thank you. I would like to speak to your manager. I'd prefer not to be kept waiting..." The girl nodded, and scurried back behind the counter. Runa waited patiently for the manger to appear. "Yes?" The woman said, and Runa cursed in her mind as she stepped up to the counter. It was a woman, Inez, that worked within her parents organization. "Ah, Runa. What brings you to Spain?" Inez's sharp eyes remained on Shadow, however, as she spoke. Runa remained calm. "I'm here with Shadow." "I see." "We would like to...be married," Runa, acting shy and looking away. "I wanted to come home and ask my parents for permission, and at the same time show Shadow where I come from. My home." She hoped that this was believable, and that Shadow would play along. "You want to marry him?" Ines asked. "Yes! You all know of my relationship with him. Please don't be so rude. He's standing right here." Runa grabbed Shadow's hand, holding it tightly.

So how does it feel to be Runa's Bitch, Shadow-kun... Lust said within the young Knight's mind, i mean she just went out and said that you guys were getting married and you are saying nothing. That Runa must be fun in bed. When am I getting a piece of that a---
"YES! We are getting married." Shadow finally spoke up to silence his inner thoughts, "I popped the question to her a few months ago while we were out for dinner."
She has to have a very good reason for this, Shadow thought, I hope...
He felt Runa's grip on his hand growing tighter and she just knew that his "wife" was just using this for their cover up. Sure it would help but in the end Shadow knew that it may not be like this later on. they were here for one reason and one reason only: to find Runa's sister.
If it meant faking then it was something they had to do. They were Devil Saints, that's their job.
"So, what do we need to do to get this show on the road or did you wanted to go see your parents, sweetie?"

"Yes," Inez added. "Are you going to go see your dear mommy and daddy? I'm sure that they would like to hear about this decision of yours to go off and marry. I can't wait to tell the others at HQ. They'll get a load out of this. Little Runa and a Human. What next, I suppose you'll be telling me that you two will both be taking care of little Felicia, like some sort of pseudo family?"
The comment about Felicia hit home, and Runa snapped back. "There's nothing wrong with wanting to have a normal family. I'm tired of you all breeding Felicia like she's some sort of creature for show."
Inez smoothed down her skirt. "But that's exactly what she is. Her magic is potent. And she's young. She used to be moldable, but you ruined that. Now we can barely get her to work for us. She's useless now, but her power can still be stolen. You had better stick with this family rather than run away from it with your little husband, little Runa or else when the chips fall, who will you turn to? This oaf of a husband of yours? I don't think so. What can he do? You know how close I am to your parents, Runa. Even you know that we have communications stationed around the Devil Saint Headquarters. We don't bother trying to force our way in simply because of the alliance that we currently share with you, Akuma." Inez was talking to Shadow now. "But we do know about when you leave and return from your base of operations. Does Runa know that you've been out and about with that Abbadon character of yours for quite a while? He is a human afterall--you thought that we didn't have any information on him? In fact, if you study the tapes it seems that you and Runa never leave or exit the base together any more."
Inez smiled maliciously. "Runa, I'd tell you to throw this jerk out while you still have the chance. I see that your ring finger is naked, Runa. I hope that you don't think mom and dad will be handing the family's ring for you. Felicia will get it before you do."
Runa turned to look at Shadow. He had been leaving with Abbadon? When? Why? As she knew there weren't any clients with them at the moment. What were they doing together? Secret missions? If he couldn't tell her about it, he could have at least told her that he wasn't allowed to tell her. Her hand dropped his, and she pondered the statement that Inez made about the family ring. She hadn't noticed the lack of one on her finger, but knowing that her parents would never give her the family ring, despite her being the oldest, was disappointing.
"I...I'll deal with that later. I know what you're trying to do, Inez. I love him, and I'm going to marry him if I want to. You can't stop me, and I won't let you turn him against me." She shot a hard glare at Shadow. "Take our bags to the bellboy, Inez--we're going for a walk."
Inez, knowing that her work was done, said, "Certainly. I'll let everyone know that you're in town." She added a small smirk before calling staff to take their bags.
Runa dragged Shadow outside, and once out there, pushed him as far as he could. "How long have you been keeping this from me? No wonder why you didn't know anything about me looking for Felicia. Even if I had wanted your help, I wouldn't have even been able to find you to get it! Why aren't I on the case, whatever it is? The new guy's on it, so I know that I can't be too low ranked! I can't believe I honestly felt bad for not telling you, thinking of donating money to the organization to help with the lack of clients. I can't believe you didn't tell me!" Some of her screaming alerted those walking the streets in front of the hotel to their argument, and some stared. "I just can't believe you at all, " she said, then snatching the keys from his hands and heading back into the hotel, calling for the elevator to take her up to the room that they had reserved.

When Shadow saw the smirk on the woman name Inez, he knew that it was going to be bad and like most of the times that he had a feeling that something was bad or was going to be bad, the Knight was right.
He stood in silence as Runa and Inez exchanged words about Falica and her family but what he was going to hear next he did not expect or was hoping that Runa wouldn't hear from anyone else.
"But we do know about when you leave and return from your base of operations." he heard her say and Shadow could do nothing but look away.
"Does Runa know that you've been out and about with that Abbadon character of yours for quite a while? He is a human after all--you thought that we didn't have any information on him? In fact, if you study the tapes it seems that you and Runa never leave or exit the base together any more."
Shadow was just about to explain himself until he felt Runa's hand slip away. He knew that she was hurt from what the she-devil of a bitch spill out what Shadow wasn't keeping a secret but was having a tough time trying to figure out how to explain everything that was happening. He then felt Runa's eyes on him, already he could tell that she was pissed.
He then felt his body being tugged by Runa, outside of the hotel. Shadow was pushed back only to hear what Runa really wanted to say.
"How long have you been keeping this from me? No wonder why you didn't know anything about me looking for Felicia. Even if I had wanted your help, I wouldn't have even been able to find you to get it! " Shadow heard her say.
It's not like that.... Shadow thought as he looked down to the ground. He just let Runa have it with him, he didn't need to say anything.
"I just can't believe you at all," he heard her say. The Knight then felt her snatch the keys from his hands, watching her walking away in the process.
WELL WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR DUMB ASS! he heard Rage explode.
Right. Shadow thought with a nod. Racing to the elevator, he pushed someone aside and pressed the button to the floor.
After a few moments, the elevator stopped and opened to the floor of where their room was. From the distance, he could see Runa walking down the hall way.
Running out he called out "RUNA!"

She fiddled with the card key as Shadow's shout reached her ears from down the hall, finally getting the door open after her shaky hands turned the key the right way and pushed it through the slot. The door opened, revealing a large room with a single bed, a small desk with a computer, and a television directly in front of the bed. Near the door where she had come in was a bathroom, stocked with hotel quality items for washing and general hygiene.
Runa barely noticed all of this, flinging the keycard onto the mattress of the bed, not bothering to close the door as she sat in the chair next to the computer. She wasn't quite crying, but her face was red and she felt like sobbing. She guessed that she was going to have to take care of this herself. It wasn't as though she was overreacting. She could understand Shadow taking an undercover mission--even if it was with the new guy--it could have been something personal or very delicate. But he hadn't even told her that there was a mission to keep from her in the first place, no indication that he was doing anything other than moping around headquarters and reviewing research and intelligence that they had already received.
She was going to have to go look for Felicia by herself, and she was going to be successful. She needed to find Felicia--and if Shadow was going to keep things from her then he wasn't going to work with him!

Shadow was able to get to the door of their hotel room but as he looked at the door way, he couldn't let himself go inside. He had a feeling that Runa didn't even want to face him. He leaned against the wall outside the room and shoved his hands in his pants pocket.
"It's...It's not like I didn't wanted to tell you." Shadow said as he faced the wall in front on him, hoping that Runa heard what he had to say.
"The mission was a simple protection job but it turn into something that I didn't see coming at all. You know that I will tell you everything but right now is not a great time to tell you. Just know that everything will be known soon enough and I will be the one to tell you. Right now, lets focus on what we came here to do.We need to find Felica."

"Yeah," Runa said, but not really meaning it. She came here with him, and for her to continue to leave him now would destroy the image that she was trying to protect. Her parents were expecting her to break up with him because of that, and she couldn't let that happen. She needed to keep them distracted with their couple problems until she found Felicia. "Whatever, I'm going to look for her. You can either stay or go," she added. Leaving her seat, she headed back to the door, grabbing the thrown card key but not bothering to look Shadow's direction as she exited the room. She silently caught the elevator downstairs, not bothering to look and see if he was behind her, and left the hotel again. Inez was no longer at the front desk. Runa now assumed that she was being watched. Inez and the rest of her family knew that she was here now, so she was going to have to watch what she said and who she said it to. This hotel was clearly stationed in the Human part of town, and so she was going to have to check on more of the magical hangouts to get the directions that she wanted. Hopefully there would be fewer of her parents' goons there, considering that damage control as far as Humans went with magic information was a lot more time consuming.
It was easy to tell when their footsteps had taken them from the tourist portion of the city to the residential area. The buildings were older, more majestic in an ancient, historical sort of way. Catholic churches were everywhere--there were many that had even been renovated over time, turned into shops, turned into apartments, post offices and clinics. Most areas were made of brick, and there were always people in the streets, hustling and bustling, going to the market, to the store, to see relatives. Every now and then a person would sing. Every so often you would see a performer on the street--this city was alive, but not without its' strife as well. Many of those on the streets had no home, other citizens were poor, but they were all trying to make the best out of life, and that's what Runa was trying to do for her sister.
Slipping into an alley way, she walked a ways, still not looking back to see if Shadow was following. She stopped abruptly, listening intently, her ears pointing in a rigid way before she knocked on a door that was painted the same color as the wall that surrounded it. Beige. After knocking for a few seconds, yellow eyes peered at her through a window in the door.
"Yes?"
"Hello. Lisger. Party of two."
The door opened, and a large shishi-jin stood at the door, ushering them in quickly into what appeared to be a rather swanky club house.

Shadow watched as Runa walked away knowing that anything else said, she would not listen. The only thing she could do was follow her and keep playing the role of "happy Husband to be" until they find Runa's sister. He was going to have to make this up to her.
Somehow.
Soon, Shadow was up top, the top of the buildings, that he used to follow Runa. He didn't want to shadow her but the situation seemed right. He had to be careful not to fall or trip and he kept silent but every now and then he would look down to see Runa. He didn't feel the need to talk to the "others" and Lust and Rage knew not to bother him as well.
The Buildings, as he jumped from each structure, began to change leaving it to be believed that he was now in the residential area of Spain.
He then saw Runa stop and he knew that Runa must of heard him walking. He stopped and looked at her and wonder what will happen now. So many what if's were going through his mind and he didn't want the answers just yet. Not now.
When Runa finally stop, and for good, Shadow climbed down a pole that was connected to the building. He then dust himself off and stood next to Runa and looking at the door.
Seeing golden eyes and then soon went through the door he saw that it was a club of some sort.
"Runa", Shadow asked, "Where are we?"

Shadow had followed her. she had known that he would. She was still very hurt by his lack of honesty, but it was necessary for her to find her sister before she dealt with that. Felicia was the most important person to her at the moment--more important than Shadow, even, and for the sake of her sister's life, she would continue this charade as the "Happy Fiance," as strictly business. Her mind was spinning; she had no idea at all w here her relationship with Shadow was or where it was going. Forcing those thoughts from her head, she answered Shadow's question with a bit more venom than she had originally intended. "We're at the place. That's all you need to know. Stay close or get lost." The club was dark--golden lights yards apart illuminated the room. There was a lot of smoke in the room; many of the attendees were -jin, the remainder were youkai, and most of them stared at both Runa and Shadow as they made their way through the club. Suddenly, the lights turned blue, and the jazzy interlude began to play, Runa's eyes--which were familiar with this place--made their way to the stage in the back of the room, an Usagi-jin making her way into the spotlight and beginning to sing. Oh, my itty-bitty heart is breaking... Oh, my itty-bitty heart is breaking... Because you pushed me to the curb and now that feeling so superb is gone...The lyrics of the song seemed to make Runa even more depressed. She just didn't understand it all why Shadow had been that way to her. Why hadn't he told her? Runa led Shadow to sit at a table near the stage, waiting. And I asked why! And I asked why! Before I got the answer, you went bye-bye! Pickin' up the pieces myself...Runa just couldn't bring herself to even look at Shadow at the moment, her eyes filling with tears as she utterly failed at keeping her issues with the Devil Saint contained within herself. "May I have this chair?" came a voice, and Runa felt the person sit without waiting for a response. Runa knew without a doubt that it was the person that she had been waiting for. "Don't look so sad, little lady." "...Jack," Runa said. "I need your help," she said looking up. "Anything for my little cousin. I know it must be serious if you came here." Runa's cousin Jack was the rogue of the family; the one with the balls to say, "Fuck the family," and make his own way apart from the Lisger family. He had always been Runa and Felicia's favorite cousin, and the most helpful. "I'm in big trouble, Jack." "I can tell. What happened?" "...is this place secure, Jack?" "As soon as I saw you. All magic is dispelled. All electronic devices disabled. No member of the Lisger family or their associates are listening." "...Felicia ran away. I haven't been able to find her for close to a month now." "...Runa...a month? Is she dead?" Jack asked. Runa cringed. She knew that he was trying to be realistic about things, but the idea still hurt. "No," runa said. "Mom and Dad still don't know about it." "So she hasn't been kidnapped by enemy forces. They would have heard by now." "I think she was trying to escape her visions and got lost. She's done it before." "Sunshine will take care of her, I'm sure," Jack said. "But she's not dead. that means that by now, she's probably looking for one of two things--either you in person, or someone who can contact you. She knows how your parents are--she wouldn't want to be obvious. She also knows that you could get in trouble for not having her with you. So she would probably be avoiding any place in this city. Your parents' spies are everywhere, and she can't risk being seen alone. If she's avoiding her visions, she'll be traveling in her animal form. That means she can't talk in English or Spanish. She'll be seeking out other felines so that she can contact you or get in a place where doing so is possible." Runa was amazed at how much he could deduce in such a short time. Runa's worry-riddled mind had skipped over some of the very details that Jack had mentioned. She was glad for the help. "We'll have to check the outskirts of the city, then," Runa concluded. "It's the only place she could go." "That," Jack added, "Or Melagna." Melagna was a Jin settlement near Barcelona. it was famous for its exotic market--many merchants traveled far and held rare items." She may have stopped there. None of the Jin there are associated with the Lisgers. I trade with them often for that reason alone. Good. Two search locations are better than the entire city. I'll leave immediately to search myself." "Thank you so much, Jack." "You're welcome. We're even so long as this didn't happen." "You don't exist as far as the family is concerned. I will keep it that way." "I wish the family would forget about me. Then I wouldn't have to work in secret. But thanks for the sentiment. Now, I can't risk my men leaving the city, so you two will go to Melagna. I'll send you word if I find her," Jack said, acknowledging Shadow's presence for the first time. "Who is this young man, by the way?" "Shadow," Runa replied, "of the Devil Saints. Co-worker." "Who did you tell my aunt and uncle he was?" "Fiance." "Nice." Jack tipped his head respectfully. "Nice to meet you. I'm Jack. Travel well. Take care of her." The Jack rose from his seat, retreating into the darkness of the club.

The young Knight was seeing that keeping these secrets from one of the people he cares for wasn't the best of plans laid out by him. It wasn't like he didn't want to tell her everything that happen but it just wasn't the best time.
Or you are so scared shit less that once you tell her, she will leave you.... Rage went on to say.
It's not that, Shadow thought back, okay maybe it is. But...I don't know anymore. I'm starting to have doubts. I 'm starting to think that she doesn't want to be with me anymore. Maybe it's for the best that we see others or something.
Shadow was so wrapped up in his own thoughts that he did not notice the young man sitting next to Runa. he heard bits and pieces of their converstion---where to look for her Sister, what to look out for---but it wasn't staying that well placed in his mind, not when he other things to worry about. But he was on the job, even if it was for a personal matter, and he had to stay focus and sharp. If Runa wasn't going to talk to him then what was the point f forcing it from her or even trying. They will look for Felicia's whereabouts and nothing more.
After hearing Jack telling him to protect her, Shadow quickly glanced t Runa and then at the door.
"You can lead the way. Stay on ground level and I'll stay up top, we can cover more ground that way. I'll radio you if see something."
Walking toward the door they came in, Shadow stopped half way to see if Runa was following. After a second, he left out the door and climb back up the pole, sitting on the ledge of the roof waiting for Runa.

Runa watched as Shadow took the skies, most likely to get away from her and her sour attitude. But if he hadn't been so secretive about everything in the first place this wouldn't be a problem at all. He was being too hasty. They were going to barcelona--even though it wasn't too far away, it was far enough. They were going to have to take a train. He couldn't very well take a train if he was running up on the roof now, could he?
Almost as soon as he had climbed up to the rooftop level, Runa called him through her radio, which was conveniently placed in a watch that she now wore. "We're going to have to catch the train out to Barcelona. Meet me at the train station if you're just going to stay up there." She had nothing else to say to him other than that. She shook her head silently as she realize that they would be on the train for between fifteen minutes to a half hour. She did not look forward to talking to him at that point. Sighing, she made her way through the streets of Madrid back to the wealthy side of town, the tourist side of town, in search of the nearest train station.

He heard what Runa had to say but Shadow, at that moment, didn't give a damn about what Runa had to say. The young knight didn't want to be angry at Runa, hell she was the last person to make him mad, but she didn't want to hear a word he was saying. It was like convincing a jury not to cut your head off when they thought you were a witch, you knew that it was just going to happen.
"If she knew half of the shit I went to when I was with Abbadon...." He said.
Dude, you forgot to do something.... Rage spoke up.
"If she knew that I almost got my head chopped up after an ambush, If she knew I had to carry Abbadon to the fucking HQ. Do you know how heavy that guy is?!" Shadow ranted on, "And then theirs Roiaryu, who by the way IS A FUCKING TALKING DOG! I mean, yes, I am use to the strange things going on but that was just odd."
Shadow.... Lust called out to the young Knight.
"Then to find out that I was gay in a past life. And then it doesn't stop there, no it doesn't. i was gay in a past life AND I had a thing for Abbdon when I was in that life, not to mention that Past life Shadow kissed Abbadon."
Will you shut your trap for a moment! both of the persona's shouted at the same time, Your radio was on and I think runa may have heard your little "bitch fest"
"My luck could not get any better, could it..." Shadow question with a frown on his face and sigh. getting up from his sitting spot, Shadow walked back to the pole he climbed and slid back down. He walked through the busy crowd of people in the town squire, looking for Runa. The tourist season was really crazy this year he thought as continued to say "Excuse me" and "pardon" as he tried to get through.
Nearing a train station, he went to the door but stopped.
"I'm hear at the train station, Runa.' he said through his radio com, "If you did hear what I said earlier then we need to talk. I'll be waiting..."
This time, he did turn of his radio.
