Duo swerved sharply, focusing on keeping the vehicle steady at that point, before he could turn and look at her through questioning eyes.

"What makes you say that?"

"Curve." she monotoned, pointing out the windshield and waiting for him to focus on the task at hand before she elaborated, "Well, I'm not used to the enemy treating me so well. Not unless they have other intentions."

"Such as what?"

"I don't want to say."

"C'mon Flame. This is need to know info for me!"

"But not 'need-to-disclose' info for me."

"Oh, this is one of your training bits, isn't it? How to give away just enough, without giving out anything worthwhile?"

"Possibly. What's it to you?"

"Only everything…"

"By that you mean?"

"Nothing."

"Nothing?"

"Correct."

"Who's on first, What's on second, kind of thing?"

"What?"

"Who."

"Whatever."

"Third."

"What?"

"SECOND!"

"Where?"

"Home."

"You confuse me."

"Right. I thought so…"

"I have no idea what the whole exchange was about, but I do know that we're almost there." Duo said, nodding towards the not-so distant skyscape.

Flame nodded idly, her hand straying to rest at her hip. "Oh shit."

"Hm?"

"Don't go right towards the safe house, drive strategically around, preferably in the most direct path out of the city."

"Why?"

"My phone is on."

"So?"

"They haven't called me, which means they are suspicious and are tracking me by my phone signals. By being on, it is still giving off detectable waves. When I get to the safe house, I would turn it off, so they assume that, where those signals stopped, they could find me."

"But why would they know it was the safe house?"

"Because Disney is crawling with cameras, and they would have seen us together."

He was silent.

"Duo?"

"So that means that they know… about…"

"Basically everything from arrival to departure."

"Then they know I met you before we entered the park?"

"No, I purposely set it up so that it would look like we weren't together beforehand."

"Sneaky… How so?"

"Easy, I bent to tie my shoe and rummage around in my pack for my card. You already had yours, so, after blending into a large group of people came along, I slipped in, grabbed you and moved with the herd."

"Ah, is that some form of soldier training?"

"No, just intuition."

"Haha…"

She smiled as the steel and concrete of the city embraced them, pulling them deeper into its bowels. They passed through the inner city, in a winding maze, until they exited back out onto the winding road towards the next city, miles away. This was the beginning of a wonderful adventure… maybe just a mediocre web of lies and deception…

That's it for now. I'm sorry, but I got wrapped up in school and watching CSI episodes. Yeah, I'm such a freaking forensic freak. Time to go. Love!
