Mohinder pulled the car up to Dale's place. "Ah" Sylar groaned and Alex smirked a little. "Zane you alright?" Mohinder asked. "Yeah it's just a headache" was al Sylar replied with. Mohinder stopped the car. And as Sylar went to get out, Mohinder put a hand on his arm. "Sit tight. You too Alex" Mohinder looked towards her. "I'll be back" Mohinder opened the door and Climbed out, making his way into the shop. "Ah" Sylar groaned again, moving forwards, slightly. "Having trouble there?" Alex said, turning sideways in her seat as she took off her seat belt before she placed her legs across the rest of the seats in the back, leaning her body against the door. "Is it too loud for you?" she nearly yelled, her voice rising.

"You are enjoying this aren't you" he said turning to face her. "What a killer who is having a killer headache? Of Course I am" Alex smiled. "Hello?" Mohinder yelled, causing Sylar to wince. Alex sniggered. "Anybody here?" Sylar opened the car door. "Maybe we should just come back Mohinder" he closed the door again. "Dale?" Mohinder yelled into the shop, only to stop dead in his tracks. Mohinder ran back towards the car, hitting the front of the car, before retching and coughing beside it, using the car as support. 

Sylar got out the car quickly, Alex right behind him as she threw herself across the seat she was led on and opened her door. "Mohinder what's the matter?" Sylar asked approaching the still coughing Mohinder. Who did nothing but point in the direction of the shop. Alex ran past Sylar and in the shop. Stopping as she saw the remains of Dale just lying there, blood everywhere. Sylar walked up next to her. "Your handiwork I presume" she said, "Well at least you aren't retching," he countered. Sylar moved his head again, the rap music hurting his head. Alex sniggered again and Sylar glared at her. "Maybe you shouldn't have done this one" she said and walked back towards Mohinder, who seemed to have stopped retching.

"What are you doing?" Alex and Sylar said at the same time, noticing what Mohinder was doing. "Dialling 911" Sylar looked panicked, in the fake way. "Do you think that's such a good idea?" Alex asked, "What are you talking about, she was murdered" Mohinder pointed in Dales direction. "And what were we doing here?" Mohinder looked taken aback. "What do you mean. We found her?" Alex looked around to look back at the building. "How? Why? Look at us, Where did we come from? How did we get here? Can we explain any of this without looking completely insane" Alex looked back. "I agree with Zane" she said.

"The top of her head was removed. It was Sylar. I dont. I mean... how?" Mohinder didn't know what to do. Anyone could see that. "Sylar..." Sylar looked around alarmed, Alex did too. She had to make it believable. "We have to warn them. Everyone on the list. He's after them" Sylar was still looking around but his eyes landed on Alex. "We leave now, we call the police anonymously from the road" Mohinder ran to the car and climbed in, Alex did the same in the back. Sylar put a hand to his head as the rap music blasted through his head yet again, before he went to his door, the headache getting worse. "Zane are you okay?" Mohinder asked as Sylar tried to open the door. 

Sylar managed to climb in and Mohinder started the car, still looking at him, before he turned his head to look through the back window and began to reverse, Alex leant back and put on her belt, closing her eyes a little. "Alex call 911. Tell them what happened and where to go..." Alex nodded and pulled out her phone, making sure they couldn't track it first, A small trick she learned from her father. "Let's get this over and done with" she muttered before dialling the number.

*******************************************

They were back at Mohinder's place by now. It had been nearly a day since they found Dale. They decided to drive back, Sylar had even rented an apartment a few doors down. To make it easier to get here. Sylar didn't know where she lived and she wanted to keep it that way. Alex shut her apartment door, locking it. She went there to freshen up, and the boys understood that, they even freshened up as well. She approached Mohinder's apartment and knocked. Sylar opened the door and let her in. Smirking a little before he went back over to the table and picked up a piece of paper, studying the names on it.
