There was no way it was just about the NET and they both knew it. But getting the details on the council meeting seemed just about as impossible as figuring out what the Hell Maya was up to. "And how do you expect we go about that? None of them are going to be exactly unbiased in their opinions of what happened if you ask them - not even the Prince. So unless there are security cameras certain hacker fingers can dig into..."
And yet, Ariel didn't feel particularly useful at the moment. "Then send me somewhere I can actually be of use. I am useless in this room unless the whole point was to keep an eye on me." His senses were so overwhelmed by the blood - scent, sight... The only thing he could do was listen and he wasn't hearing much of anything either.
He settled against one of the far walls, furthest back from the splattered puddles of blood and closed his eyes. He listened. He felt like (and he was loathed to admit it) the attack dog being taken out for a friendly stroll which never worked out well. Sure he knew it was kind of to watch the Sheriff's back too but did Amadeus really need him?
