Lost Soldier
Ben had left the relative safety of the broken down building he lived in on the outskirts of Seattle to get food. What little money he had wasn't his, merely lifted from other people's pockets when they weren't paying close enough attention. After he'd gotten what he needed and stuffed it into his backpack, he pulled his hoodie down more over his face and headed back to the place he was staying. He stopped as soon as he walked in though, noting this was definitely not the building he was meant to be in.

He attempted to go right back through the door that he'd used to enter but well, that was kind of a wall. Okay, fine. Weird place with all the strange people and odd smelling stuff didn't want him to leave. There's a blur.

And the broken soldier is hiding underneath a table, backpack clutched to his chest and alert.

To flat out say yes would be a lie and Dawn knew it. "I can't say they won't try, but because of the rules they won't be able to." She gestures to various spots in the cafe that looked completely normal. "We have security weapons to help prevent it. Insta-kill or instant teleportation of the offending party." Dawn thought it easier to explain the hell spell in he most simple way.

"And you see all the staff here?" She asked and nodded her head toward the various girls on duty. "Most double as security too."

	He nods yes in answer to her question. "And they go to the Bad Place if they try to hurt someone?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"As bad of a place as one can get." Dawn confirmed with another nod. "I'm Dawn. I take it your name is Ben?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Dawn is a pretty name." he grins and gives another nod. "My name is Ben." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Thanks." She said with a small smile. "It's nice to meet you, Ben." Dawn cast a quick look around before returning her gaze on him. "Do you want to stay under the table?" She wasn't going to force him to come out, but she'd need to let the other girls know he was there just in case. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Welcome." he says, teeth worrying his bottom lip a moment. "Guess it would be okay if Ben came out." Since Dawn said that it was safe here. He moves a bit, crawling out from under there, careful not to run into her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She got to her feet, making sure to avoid bumping into him and brushed off the knees of her jeans with her free hand. Once stable she held her book to her chest with slight look to the side.

"Would you like me to get you anything?" Technically she was only on manager duty today and not wait staff, but the grand thing about being a boss was she could do almost whatever she wanted.

	He brushes off himself a little bit. "Could Ben have milk?" he asks with a small purr. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Dawn nodded and gestured to a seat. "Sure. Have a seat and I'll be right back." She turned on her heel and headed for the kitchen, hoping he'd be alright for the time being.

Though she wasn't gone long, she had made sure to tell the others about him, should he once again decide under the table was a better place to be. She came back with a glass of milk for him and set it down. "Here you go. Is there anything else you'd like right now?"
