"Probably somewhere in the outskirts of town," Antonio replied after some thought.

He sighed faintly. "Alright."

"Sorry," Antonio apologized even though the time on that lie was running on thin ice.

Quinn shrugged. "It's fine." He replied. "Come on."

"Okay," Antonio nodded after replying in a soft voice.

Quinn led him through the streets, mostly quiet.

Antonio went silent as he followed Quinn through the city.

Quinn hummed faintly.

Antonio listened to Quinn raising an eyebrow slightly.

Quinn blinked and went quiet, shaking his head faintly.

Antonio glanced over at him before going back to walking.

Quinn led him through the silent streets, frowning faintly on occasion.

Antonio had never seen a city as quiet as this one. He had never thought cities could even be this quiet.

Quinn sighed. "So…you don't have any specific locations?"

"Not really, no," Antonio replied with a shake of his head.

He ran his hands through his hair, mumbling a curse under his breath. "Okay."

"I'm sorry once again," Antonio told Quinn after hearing the faint trace of a curse.

"'s fine." he replied, looking ahead at the street.

"Okay," Antonio said and went quiet afterwards.

He kept walking.

Antonio walked alongside him. This whole search was going to go poorly and he knew it.

He had no idea where to even start. The outskirts? Which part?

The only hope Antonio had at the moment was that the outskirts of town were large and it would be easy to not find them. His nonexistant family that is.

The outskirts were…rather large, and with no idea of direction…"This is going to be like finding a needle in a haystack. If they aren't dead."

"That bad?" Antonio asked him wincing ever so slightly.
