Klaus had been observing Elena for a few days now, but he wanted to make direct contact with her. He needed to know her weaknesses, what he could exploit to make her obedient in doing as he wished for the sacrifice. He watched her outside the Grill and decided now was the time to act.

He straightened his jacket and walked over to her. "Excuse me, I hate to bother you but could you tell me how to get to cemetery?"

	Elena was sitting outside, enjoying the warm weather. But as the man came over to her, she glanced up from her drink. "The cemetery?" She questioned, pain flickering in her eyes, though it was quickly hidden away again. "Umm...yeah, of course. It's not too far away." (Reply to this) (Thread)

	He noticed that flicker of pain. That boded well for him. "Thank you. A college friend of mine, William Tanner, recently died and unfortunately I was not able to attend the funeral. I should like to pay my respects still.' (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You knew Coach Tanner?" She questioned. "I'm...I'm sorry for your loss." He hadn't been the best teacher in the world, but if they had been friends, she could at least offer some sympathy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Thank you," he said, doing his best impression of someone was grieving deeply after the lose of a friend. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Do you want to sit down?" Elena offered. "I can show you exactly where the cemetery is after I finish this?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You are very kind," he said. "It's just.... so fresh and....... I don't know if you've ever lost anyone close to you but it's devastating." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I have, actually," she nodded, head ducking a moment. "My parents...they died a few months ago. We were in a car accident and..." Her voice trailed off but she forced her gaze to rise to meet his. "I get it," she answered finally. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, it was just too easy. She was so naive and silly. And she wore her heart on her sleeve. "I'm very sorry to hear that. I imagine that was very difficult. I know personally I find it easier to get through these hard times with the help of friends and family." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"They helped." To a point, at least. "I wouldn't have made it through without their support. But at the same time....I don't want to stay sad forever. I need to close that chapter of my life and move on." Though she wasn't sure he'd understand so soon after losing his friend. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I am sure that a new chapter of your life is just around the corner," he said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She smiled at that. "I hope so," Elena agreed. "By the way, I'm Elena. It's nice to meet you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I am Joseph," he said. He wasn't going to tell her his real name, just in case. "It's nice to meet you, also." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Finishing her drink, Elena pushed her chair back. "Well...shall we? We can walk from here. Follow me." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You are too kind," he said, getting to his feet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"So, you're here to pay your respects...are you passing through or were you planning on staying in town for a little bit?" She questioned, leading him down the street. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I'm sure that won't take too long," Elena teased. He seemed much nicer than his friend. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I quite like the small town charm," he said. It made it much easier for him to find out information when everyone knew everything about everyone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It has its benefits," she agreed. They turned down another street and the cemetery stretched out ahead. "Here we are. Coach Tanner is...over there." She pointed out a fresh grave. "I'll let you....I'm going to visit my parents." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Thank you, Elena,' he said, walking over to Coach Tanner's grave with a smile on his face. (Reply to this) (Parent)
