After Blake briefly deliberated whether he should try to use the vents to listen in, an idea which he quickly dropped due to the noise it would create, the young Altered Hunter decided to go with his original idea. He looked outside to make sure there were no students out there, but since the teachers' lounge, as well as the printer room, were facing away from the main road he wouldn't have to worry about people mistaking his actions for a suicide attempt, shouting out towards him, creating a scene that would reveal his location.
Blake opened the window and dropped down to the window sill. He held on with his fingers, making use of his strong grip strength.
'This reminds me of my early childhood training… I still don't have any idea in what circumstance this would help deal with an Altered, but it's definitely proving handy right about now.' Blake thought as he started to move along the edge slowly, with his legs hanging.
He then could see that there was a gap between the window sill he was on, and the one that Gary was patiently in. There was no trouble on Blake's face as he swung his body from side to side, and at the right moment let go of the edge. Reaching out, he quickly grabbed onto it, and held on tightly. His strong fingers that had calluses on top of calluses had done him well and were holding out.
Now that he was in the right place, all he needed to do was listen to what they were saying. The problem was, even from his current position he had trouble making out the words clearly, so the only thing he could do was lift one hand up slowly, reaching for the window from the outside. He had to be careful, after all they were on the third floor. Nevertheless, the young Altered Hunter didn't hesitate, as he managed to hold himself with one hand and quickly pushed the window ever so slightly open, allowing him to finally hear everything that was going on.
'Billy? That's that murderer on the news! According to Dad, he's most likely one of the Altered we fought in the park and it obviously wasn't the one I fought. Did they find something linking him to Gary? …Come to think of it, I guess I never did ask him, but the two of them… they were fighting yet both of them were the same type of Altered.
From what I know only the Kings and big corporations should have a hold on specific types of Altered DNA… Damn it, why didn't I think of it before? Gary and Billy have to know each other somehow. I should have…' Now that Blake thought of it, it made him also wonder why he had refrained from asking Gary anything about how he had become an Altered.
When Gary looked at Kai by his side, it was the first time he saw the other with a worried look on his face.
