Owen-

We all watched as Sang ran out of the restaurant. She was too fast for all of us to try to catch her. Silas had tried since he was sitting right next to her, but she slipped right through his fingers. I turned my gaze to the waitress. She had an evil smirk. I didn't need to confirm that my suspicions were true just based on what she had said. All of us are from similar backgrounds and it seems our little bird is as well. Noise from my right draws my attention. I turn to see Gabe making a scene.
"Oy! Fucking let me go. Someone needs to go after her. It's late. There's fuckers out there that can hurt her."
Luke has his arms around Gabe keeping him close.
"Dude calm down. Let her be for now. We don't know her well enough to charge in guns blazing. We could just scare her and then where does that get us?" Gabe loses some of his fight. Luke talks in hushed tones until Gabe finally sits down. Victor is sitting pensive in his seat tapping his fingers on the table.
"Victor, do you remember where she lives?"
"Yes. It's easy enough just..." I cut him off since her sister is still standing within ear shot. I silently communicate that he is to check on her just to make sure she made it back home. He understands and gets up to leave. The others and I stay behind to make sure bitch of the year doesn't try to follow. We need a plan. We need to get her to open up a little. We can't help if she won't allow us.

     North is fuming. Sean and Kota just have concerned looks on there faces. Gabe and Luke are glaring at the waitress. Nathan is clenching his fists and Silas is just silently sitting at the end of the table. Sometimes his silence is worse than the others. He's a quiet guy but when his demeanor changes and he goes deathly still and silent, his wrath rivals North. We need to group before things get out of hand.
"Alright. Let's get back to the apartment. We'll make a plan there. Obviously we aren't eating here. Let's go." I get up and the others slowly start to rise. This won't be good if I  don't resume control. "Team, now!" That gets their attention, and we all make our way home. I'll fix this for our little bird if she'll let us.
