When the shorter woman rejected the cellular device, Dia peered at her curiously, wondering what she might have meant by that. She supposed, as a member of the Conclave, there would be things that Anastasia could probably do to more efficiently reach the minds of her fellow members.

The hybrid did her best to keep herself collected when the woman offered the chance to re-locate to the Conclave by portal. She wasn’t sure if she became sick after using one because she’d never gone through a portal. Secretly, it was on her bucket list of tasks that she wanted to accomplish before she died. Her lips parted, as if to say something and she slowed her pace just a bit. Given the current situation, Dia didn’t particularly feel like rejoicing, however, under any other normal circumstance, she would have been very excited at the opportunity to experience something like this. Typically, only the field agents at the Directorate’s traveled by portal, either their own or one conceived by a sorcerer/sorceress. <br/>

It wasn’t as if the headquarters would be going anywhere any time soon and , as far as she was concerned, this woman was her only lead to anything regarding her brothers appearance. She knew that she would be taking a chance traveling with a complete stranger but, personally, she didn’t feel as though she’d had much of a choice. Also, Dia was mildly curious about this Conclave meeting spot. Tucking her phone back into her pocket, Dia nodded at the other woman. <b>“That sounds like a much better idea,” </b>she exclaimed. <b>“Err…As for the nausea, we’ll just have to see about that.” </b>Dia wasn’t particularly concerned but she felt the need to warn the woman, regardless. <b>“I’m ready when you are, Ms. Acosta.” </b> <br/>

The brunette’s mind traveled back to her brother while she waited. She’d only hoped that this would yield more information that might suggest a location for Aiden’s whereabouts. The longer time went on, the less likely she felt that she would be able to find him. </span>
