"What the hell?" one of them muttered and started to back up, turned and ran. The one with the meat looking thing in his hands just smiled a bit as he followed suit "happily." he called back.

”And don’t come back!” Meg shouted after them, calmly closing her knife and tucking it back into its hiding spot. ”So what was that about?” she casually asked Theo as she turned back to face him. ”Something tells me that wasn't an organ donor helping someone's dying cousin.”
Theo's face was still fixed into a snarl, he turned back normal and looked over to her, his face calmer but still pretty upset "You're right…it wasn't for a transplant…it was a drug trade."
”Wait, what?” she said shaking her head a little at the word choice. ”That was a liver. How is someone’s liver a drug?” she asked, very confused.
"My kind…Fuchsbaus that is grind it into a powder…and snort it…it's like another drug I could mention expect it heightens the senses…with the risk of cardiac arrest though." He explained
”I… I didn't know.” she shook her head. ”And that was a human liver?” she asked a little rhetorically. ”I think I read something about Geier’s being big on harvesting organs from their victims but… I had no idea about the drug part.”
"Yeah you can thank Fuchsbaus for that…I did move to get away from that stuff though." his anger dissipated and felt him deflated "I guess that's not possible."
”Don’t beat yourself up about it.” she said calmly, though still weirded out. ”I mean it's kinda weird… even for me but I'm not going to blame you for every questionable choice a Fuchsbau made in history.” she assured him. ”I really don't think it's possible to just move to get away from any of this kind of stuff. Wesen or normal. Every state has some kind of activity like this.”
He sighed and took his keys out his pocket "Alright you need to get anything from inside before I lock up?"
She shook her head as she readjusted her bag on her shoulder. ”No. I grabbed everything on the way out.” she told him. Course it helped her definition everything had stayed in her bag all day.
"Alright well…you did great today Meghan." he told her as he locked up the front door "You can go home now." he gave her a little smile, but was still clearly bothered by what he had seen
She smiled back just as softly, trying to be reassuring. ”Ok. I’ll see you tomorrow. You take care of yourself, Theo.” she said, placing a hand on his shoulder before heading to her car.
Theo started his walk back home, going through the many shortcuts he had found out he could use long ago. He could tell though that he wasn't alone he went on his way so he decided to take a detour instead to attempt to throw whoever he smelled off.
Meg had gotten to her car but hesitated on driving home right away. She glanced up at where Theo had been and considered going after him, maybe offer him a ride to his place. She didn't see where he headed but without a car, he probably lived close by. Besides, he had seemed really upset by the exchange they had seen. Making up her mind she drove in the opposite direction of her place and kept an eye out for Theo.
Theo was out walking on the empty but well lit sidewalk now, the person that had been following him didn't seem to care about that and started to follow him in the street now, the person was breathing heavily
Meg frowned a bit when she saw Theo was being followed but just stopping right now would probably scare the stalker away then they wouldn't get any answers. So, a bit reluctantly, she drove past them and casually turned at the corner at the end of the block. She parked about halfway down the block and got out, quickly buttoning up her coat as she did. Even heading towards them it would take a little bit before they met up.
Finally Theo turned and woged "Can you just go-…" the words died in his throat as the stalkedr was running at him at this point, fully woged as well , it seemed to the the suppler of the transaction didn't like his business interrupted. Theo turned and ran as well, knowing what the red powder around the nose area meant.
Meg quickened her pace when she heard Theo try to get rid of his stalker and slid on the brass knuckles she had in her pocket. It was a bit of a riskier weapon choice but it was a little less suspicious. As she turned the corner she immediately set her sights on the other Fuchsbau and ran towards him.
The other wesen grabbed Theo by the wrist and pulled him close, striking him across the face, causing Theo to woge out of the shock of the strike "You know what happens to people who get in my business?" he asked.
Theo responded by stomping the other's foot, making the now attacker let him go. The drugged wesen caught a glance at Meg and there was no fear in his eyes…only a primal rage.
Meg met his gaze unafraid as she raced towards him. As soon as Theo was clear she swung her brass-knuckled fist at the attacker's nose. ”You don't know when to quit, do ya!” she snarled at him.
He growled out and tired to grab at her throat "It's not your concern Grimm!" he told her as he steadied his footing
“It does when you attack my boss!” she growled back as she dodged the grab and slugged him in the stomach.
He grunted a bit and grabbed at her, his hand at her face, clawing at it. Theo was seen swinging a think novel he had tucked away in the knapsack he carried around with him. "Get off her!" he exclaimed as the high wesen was knocked in the side of the head by the thick hardcover book.
Meg grunted at the clawing and quickly shoved him back as Theo hit him. She winced at the three bloody scratches on her face, punching him in the face again.
It seemed the angry wesen wasn't willing to attack them anymore as he just lay groaning on the ground after he flopped flat on his back from the face and head strikes. Theo put his book away, his eyes widening as he looked to Meg's face "Meghan are you alright?" he asked, wiping the blood with his sleeve, not caring if it stained.
