Rain hit harshly against the pavement as a petite brunette almost sprints towards a solitary building, huddled over on herself to keep as warm and dry as possible.
Swinging the door open abruptly as she reached it she lunges into the warmth, straightening herself, she wandered through the entrance.
"Hello?" She called timidly,with a french tilt to her accent, unsure whether she had got the right address.
"What can I help you with?" A middle aged man appeared from nowhere shocking the smaller girl.
"Are you Dr. Deaton?" She questioned, seeing his lab coat.
"Yes, I am, are you here to pick up a pet?"
"No, sorry for imposing on you like this, but you tried to contact my grand-Maman a few weeks ago about an unwanted spirit?" She shuffles from foot to foot shivering, "it's just that she passed almost 2 years ago now. I wanted to come in her place, she would've wanted that."
"I'm very sorry about her passing, we were good friends." He's silent for a moment, "what's your name?"
"Birdie Béraud," She offers her hand after wiping it on her dry sweater.
"I'm very glad you could be here, but I wouldn't want to place anything on your shoulders, you seem so young." He hesitates.
"It's really okay, I've been on my own in France since mamé passed, its nice to get away and practice my gifts again." She gives him an assuring smile.
"Okay then, come by tomorrow at 2, I have a feeling Scott and stiles will be here tomorrow. Lovely to meet you birdie." He smiles warmly at her.
"Lovely to meet you too, Salut, bonne nuit."
