For once, Rebecca is on a mission of her own!  She's had time to think over what's happened the past few days, and there are certain things that have been said or done that have bothered her.  One such thing was what Matt had talked to her about in their last training session, so she's searching for him.

Because, really, who has anything better to do than pester senior agents and trainers?

Cool! It can be warmer than it is outside!

What's he doing?

60 degrees in Chicago this weekend!

Looks like he may have been running an expedition on the vehicles, as he has a clipboard in hand!

Gimme your weather, bro.

Rebecca approaches, long enough to knock on whatever wall or surface is closest to get his attention. She looks over the cars while she's there. She's normally not out here.

We'll pretend he was entering the garage then!

When she knocks on the door he turns and looks, pen to paper on the clipboard!

"What's up?"

"Hey." She steps forward when he greets her, not quite relaxed but certainly not hostile. It's a far cry from how she first acted around him.

"I was wondering if you had some time? I want to ask you something."

"Sure." He leans against a jeep, folding his hands over the clipboard at his lap.

"What's up?"

She folds her hands behind her with a thoughtful expression, letting him have space as he leans against a Jeep.

"Why did you get so defensive the other day in training?"

"In training. I mentioned not being able to be here. Out of reach." She eyes him for a moment. "You got super defensive."

He furrows his brow with a sigh and a shrug.

"Sorry, I don't recall that."

She frowns, almost believing him. It wouldn't be weird for him to have forgotten. Rebecca's not unaware that there are certain phrases that get under her skin, especially when repeatedly thrown in her face.

"So 'people like you' was really just about people who need to learn control over powers because they're destructive? Or those who aren't likely to be as accepted?"

"Ah." He nods his head.

"Yes. Not all powers are glamorous as you know. Some require real coping skills. That's what I meant."

"I see." Her arms fold over her chest at the explanation, the frown remaining as she looks at the floor and recalls the conversation as well as what happened in the alley a few days ago. The memories deepen her frown.

"So what do we do about those who don't get a chance?" Her voice is softer now, as though she doesn't want to speak. She's not sure if she wants him to hear the words.

She blinks and looks up at him, still frowning.

"A few days ago, some of us came across someone being attacked in an alley." So much frowning, she's looking years older already. "He was accused of buying out a boy's home and selling the kids off to claw for experimentation." Right, forget frowning. her lips twist at the last word, spitting it out with a great deal of venom.

"He didn't even deny it."

He nods, listening!

"Noelle mentioned something like that. But what does that have to do with...?" He waits for the connection!

That's right, she did regenerate. Rebecca wasn't sure who the power had been copied from for certain, but that made sense.

"Yeah. She still doing okay? The guy holding hostage threw her onto a car, but she said she'd be alright." So much doubt for a moment, but it's easier to focus on that. Until Matt wants elaboration. She shakes her head.

"Probably nothing more than my personal wondering and morals. If those kids are still able to be found and brought back instead of being specimens, they might have had the same chance I did. But there's a good chance they won't. Ever." She shifts, gripping her upper arms so tightly that her fingers ache.

"She'll be fine save for some time resting. Kind of a side effect of regenerating from more serious injuries." He frowns, clenching his jaw when she elaborates.

"I know. People like that make me sick. What happened to that guy...?"

"Yeah." She looks pretty sick and furious herself, so good thing for another question that couldn't possibly lead to more trouble.

"The biker got away, but the hostage was brought here, I think. He wasn't exactly talking much with everything going on."

"Yeah?" Goddamit Matt. Or Becca. Or both.

"I was going to talk to him and see what I could find out. Feel like coming along?" Because clearly she's intimidating and there is nothing else going on with this.

"Why?"

"Where?" He pauses before shaking his head.

"What charge are you guys holding him on. You said he didn't deny it, but you need more than that."

Rebecca looks like she's about to have a massive headache!

"I don't know the technicalities." Still frowning. Matt's record is still good.

Oh boy, how much did they screw up this time?
