Renault only nodded to Sully, he had no deserve to argue or discuss this further with the boy. Then he made his way to the town offices (hotel de ville). The front door was propped open on this warm early autumn day. Just inside was a grand hall with vaulted ceilings and off to one side recessed into the wall was a large long counter. Behind the counter a few workers sat busily at their desks performing office functions. One man stood up and walked over to give greetings. Renault flashed his badge, introduced himself and the others then proceeded to ask where the recent events had occurred (headline: Monster Hoax Unanswered.)<br/><br/>It had been a sighting by an elderly lady in the old records room downstairs. So, Renault followed the directions of the man at the front desk and made his way downstairs. In the back of the basement was a vault door. Inside it was a giant warehouse sized room with hundreds of library like book stacks full of boxes and papers. Renault explained that it was most likely originally built as a cold war bunker. There are thousands of such bunkers all across the country ranging from WW2 era to cold war. He pulled out a small pen flashlight to see into the darker corners, snapped on the overhead lights and proceeded to look around.<br/><br/><hr/><br/><br/>Tallis stopped Kumari before letting her get out of the car with a gentle hand on her arm. "I'm so sorry, I deceived you. Well, not totally but a little. Don't go, please." Her eyes were wide and she had a little half crooked smile that she was trying to make look warm and friendly but it was no doubt coming across as a little goofy and confusing. "I... Well you and I. Ugh, I don't know how to say it. I can sense you. You're different like I am. I know it and I know if you go to wherever you are going then bad things are going to happen." She hoped that Kumari wouldn't go. She was desperate to stop her, she'd known since the second that she brushed past her in the lunch room that she had to stop her or something. Tallis's long pink hair spilled down over her face obscuring her vision a bit as she leaned in the direction of Kumari, arm outstretched to hold onto her.
