Simone subconsciously rubbed the small crack on her wrist as she looked up at the person speaking with her. "Huh? Yeah, I'm fine. We need to get this woman to a hospital. Or at least make sure she's alive."

Bill sighed as he walked down the street with his hands inside of his yellow hoodie. He passed a dinner that so happened to be the one with the probably dead human inside. He stopped and walked back to the diner and peered inside.
Alex looked at the woman on the floor and gave a slight sigh. She pulled out her phone and started to dial the emergency services. Or rather her family's personal services, "I got it."
He could see everything, especially the very afraid costumers. He immediately saw the woman on the floor. He couldn’t help, but to wonder what had happened here. He decided to enter which could be or could not be his greatest idea.
Simone leaned back against the wall, still rubbing her wrist. "Sorry, I'm just…in a lot of shock. Nothing like this has ever happened before…"
He looked at the woman on the floor and then at the people near her. “Is she okay? Or more importantly will she be okay?” He knew for a fact that this accident wouldn’t be good for the restaurant’s records.
"I understand," Alex said putting the phone and letting it ring.
She heard the lady on the other end let out a long sigh before asking, "What is it this time Alexa?"
"I got an unconscious cop from an incident," Alex responded stepping away from the waitress and towards the entrance, "At the {name of diner}."
"I'll send an ambulance your way," the lady responding and the click of a button could be heard, "please tell me this wasn't your doing."
"Shockingly," Alex responded the sarcasm laced heavily in her voice, "Not my fault this time. I'm not telling you what happened, but I was just a bystander."
"I don't believe you, Alexa," the voice responded.
"Believe me, darling," Alex clicked her tongue as she looked back at the unconscious cop, "You'll make sure this doesn't go on public record?"
"Of course," the lady sounded done with everything, "Goodbye Alexa."
"Bye-bye," Alex hung up the phone. She shook her head and looked to the waitress, "It's all taken care of."
"Oh…well thank you." Simone turned to the man that walked into the diner. "She'll be fine, I'm sure." She smiled nervously as she went to the front of the diner and flipped the sign on the window to "closed", hoping it would keep anyone from wandering inside while they delt with this.
"It's no problem," Alex responded putting the phone back into her pocket, "I would hate for this place to get a bad rep already."
"Yeah…" Simone trailed off, staring at the woman on the floor. She could see burns on her face from where the lightning hit. "I'm sure some detectives will still wanna do an inspection of this place. It'll be under surveillance because of that magic user."
Magic had been banned for so long. He himself didn’t use the Magic he possessed, because he was afraid of what would happen to him after. “Magic? How are you sure that it was a Magic User?”
"Yeah," Alex let out a long sigh and glanced around, "They definitely will be."
She turned to the guy, "You weren't here were you? Lady got shot in the head with lightning from a user."
“Well, that explains why the costumers were screaming and why the woman is on the floor.” He sighed and sat on a nearby chair.
If the people who work in the restaurant are lucky, the restaurant won’t get bad reputation or get shut down. Though I highly doubt that’ll happen.
Simone would have to talk to her boss about quitting. There was no way she could safely stay here with cops and detectives running about. Maybe she could just…leave now? No one would know she was here.
Maddie shuffled past a nearby diner, once more on the run. Someone had gotten her hopes up again, and she glanced around nervously, not wanting to get caught. There was a suspicious looking man across the street, and she darted into the diner. As it turned out, her paranoia got the best of her… again. Just an ordinary guy. Looking up, she saw the commotion abuzz inside the diner. "…what's going on?" Maddie asked quietly, not wanting to interfere with anything. The last thing she wanted to do was to get caught.
Bill pointed to the woman on the floor. He decided it wasn't his place to say anything since he didn't see it happen. He sighed and took out a pen and started twirling it around.
As Murphy slowly lounged around his dusty apartment, he decided that he would take an easy day, just spending time for himself and resting. He sat at his wicker table and chair, slowly lifting his splintered hands and coffee mug to his lips. He'd often thought about settling down because he really did enjoy this…Sunday mornings..the quiet, and jingle of his cats's collar as he softly pawed at Murphy's feet. He sighed, content, looking out through his also dusty window.
Murphy furrowed his eyebrows, What's goin' on out there?
Bill pointed to the woman on the floor. He decided it wasn't his place to say anything since he didn't see it happen. He sighed and took out a pen and started twirling it around.
"Woah… what happened?" she whispered, her eyes growing wide. Her paranoia started grow, and just after it had disappeared from the earlier, but much more minor scare.
"Uhm, should someone help her?" Motioning to the officer.
Alex looked to the girls, "A magic user popped her in the head with electricity. And the woman is getting help. An ambulance should be here any moment."
As if on cue the flashing lights were seen outisde the window. She gave a shrug and started towards towards the door, "See? There here."
"Okay then."
Authorities? That wasn't good, was it? She slowly moved away from the windows, burying herself in a corner.
Bill looked outside and sighed. He really did hope the ambulance didn’t question the people on what happened. He clicked the top of the pen and took out a piece of paper out of nowhere.
Simone prayed that she wouldn't have to explain what she saw, even though she knew she would. She was afraid that her answer would be too biased and they would find out that she was a magic user herself.
“So, if officers came in and asked you what happened, what would you say?” He said to Simone. He clicked the top of the pen a couple of good times before setting it down on the paper.
