((OOC: this thread takes place just after Wesker and Nick's initial fight when all hell had broken loose in the arena.))
Nick entered the diner and strolled on up to the main counter. He nodded and grinned at the Diner’s owner from under his baseball cap. “Hey what’s up?” He took a seat at the bar and rubbed his chin thoughtfully as a waitress approached him. “I’ll take a cheese burger please.” He noticed the waitress was a hot, well-curved blonde and he smiled at her appreciatively. “Getcha a drink?” She asked, chewing on a wad of gum. She returned the smile a little shyly, it seemed she recognised him. Perhaps she was a fan of cage fighting. “No thanks, meeting someone who’ll be ordering the drinks.” He winked at her. “Another fighter?” The waitress asked excitedly. “Man I just love what you guys do!” Nick shrugged. “Yeah another fighter. Not as good as me though. His name’s Wes… you might have heard of--” The waitresses eyes lit up as she cut him off. “You mean Wesker? He’s coming here?” She nearly spat her gum out in his face with excitement. Nick’s grin fell. “Uh yeah… that’s him.” “Oh he’s my favourite! My husband and kids just think he’s the best! He’s amazing!” She spun on her heel and started off towards the kitchen with Nick’s order. “I must get his autograph! Oh and I better fix my hair!” Nick stared down at the polished top and scowled silently to himself. Oh well, I can’t be everyone’s favourite! He tried to cheer himself up. His burger and fries arrived and he attacked it hungrily as he waited for Wes or Amira to show up…

Shortly after Nick started to attack the poor burger on his plat Wesker walked in and was greeted by the owner personally and then shortly after he saw Nick and started to walk to him he was surrounded by the waitress that helped nick early along with a bunch or people that were customers and he was given a pin and he started giving out autographs and he had a big smile on his face and finally after he had taken care of everyone he sat down next to Nick and he was immediately brought a cheese burger with extra cheese and extra fries and a large drink and he smiled at the waitress and he called as she turned and left." See you later Joyce! tell Eric and your son Chris i say hello and give them those autographs i gave you okay!" She turned and nodded as she was very excited and then she went into the back." Very nice family! they even invited me to there house one time for dinner...man she can cook." He looked to nick and smiled as he looked to what he ordered and then he smiled a little more." Looks like you need a drink with that! Go ahead and call for Joyce and order whatever you want and tell her to put it on my tab." He looked to his own plate of food and started to attack it...and man was it good.

Nick stared over his shoulder towards Wesker as he entered and was bombaded by his fan club. He chewed his burger slowly before turning back around to face his plate. He muttered something under his breath. I'm just not that well known in this city... Nick tried to reason with himself, now more than ever determined to beat the werewolf.
He looked at Wesker with forced cheerfulness when he sat down next to him. The other man didn't seem to notice as he started wolfing down his own food. Nick ordered himself a bottle of beer and took long gulps of it. He continued to chew on his burger as he asked. "So.. you thought about what I said back in the arena?" He asked quietly.

Wesker looked to him as he wiped his face to clean off the food so he looked a little better than he did and then he thought for a second as he looked to Nick." I have thought about what you said but i have to say that it seems weird that you would all of a sudden want to have an illegal fight...is there something else at play here?"

Just outside the diner Hawk was looking in at the two fighters. Ardolf agreed to stay with Amira sense they needed some time to talk more anyway. He didnt like this. Why did Amira make that deal? They all knew that Frankies boss was capleable of. Amira would have to go willingly but why? He hated that their was a humans life on the line. If it wasnt for that she wouldnt have done it. He then looked over to the door and saw a hooded figure walk into the diner. Something about that figure that rumbed him the wrong way. So Hawk followed him into the bar. He saw the figre sit near Nick just a seat down from him and still wasnt showing his face. Trying not to be seen by Nick sense he was in heavy convo with the other fighter he sat at a table and watched. Making sure that hooded figure didnt do anything to Nick. If he did Hawk would be all over him withing seconds. So he just waited and watched.
(OOC: Just keep talking like you dont see what is happening around you.) ^_^

((Okay dokey Amira))
Nick sighed. "Okay, someone I know has gone and made a bet on our fight and... well alot depends on the outcome for her. We need to face off again before the week is out, which is why we might have to have the fight more... discreetly." He glanced at Wesker to see if he was buying. He wasn't lying to him, just not expanding on the details. He turned his attention back to his plate of food and started picking at his fries. He was absently aware of the sound of the door opening as someone came into the diner but paid them no more attention.
"It's gonna be a while until I'll be allowed to take part in another proper legit match in an arena. They're saying this vampire attack is partly my fault. I'm kinda reckless and trouble follows me around quite alot." He grinned at Wesker. "Guess I'm just not born superstar material like some people. If you're up for this I can get us a match set up sometime in the next few days. So, what's it gonna be? Yes or no?"

Alastair walked into the dinner with a limp and a hand on his forehead, very obviously swollen. Perhaps hit with a blunt object?
He walks in the shadows, still plainly seen by any look for or are expecting him, but somehow ignored by those that do neither. His bow is in it's case and sword is on his back. Instead, his free hand is held as though he has a dagger hidden up his sleeve and he can just flash it forward and be armed.
He walks up behind Hawk and whispers in his ear.
"You should learn to blend a bit more. You stick out like a sore thumb, my friend." His smile softens the bite of the reprimand.

Wesker looked to him and spoke bluntly." Okay i know you are not telling me everything but okay i'll fight you whenever you want to have the match just tell me when and where and i'll be there and i'll be ready" He looked to his food and started to eat again this time finishing the burger quickly and then he too was eating his fries as he gave the fight no mind...yes he loved fighting...but only fare fights or those involving demons and monsters because he always kicked there a$$

"Thank you." Nick said with feeling. He wished he could tell him more about Amira's plight. He moved to get up and felt a sudden flash of pain in his head and groaned as he grabbed the counter top to steady himself. Oh not now! Nick thought angrily as he fought the wave of nausia and tried to pretend he was okay again. He was starting to sweat and breathe more rapidly. "Just uh... gonna take a trip to the men's room." He told Wesker and darted away.
In the restroom, Nick finished throwing up his dinner in the toilet before grabbing the washing basin with both hands and leaned against it breathing deeply. The weak ceiling light was blinding to his suddenly sharpened senses and he tried not to black out. Flashes of memory played before his mind of his time as a special ops commando, being injected with god only knows what as he underwent the enhancement program. The headaches, the nausia... sort of a recurring side-effect Nick suffered. Thankfully never when he was in a fight. It was as if violence was the only way his body would let him truly relax.
Calming himself slightly, Nick turned on the faucet and splased cold water onto his face. Great now I look like a freak to him! He thought to himself. He decided he must have admired Wesker if he cared what the other fighter thought of him. Nick sighed and stopped thinking for a while...

Wesker looked to nick as the guy suddenly didn't look so hot and then when he darted off Wesker thought for a sec if he should follow him but he stopped himself and waited patiently as he just sat there and finished his food and drink and then once everything was done he called joyce over and had her fill up Nicks glass because for some reason he thought he would need it.

Nick returned to the bar a few moments later. He sat down next to Wesker again and nodded his thanks as he noticed his refill. "Cheers." He took a long welcome gulp of beer and sighed.
"I'll get on with organizing us a match as soon as then." He said, then took a second long gulp. He looked at Wesker with a curious expression. "I must admit I was a bit confused why you didn't just turn into your wolf form in our last match. You could have over powered me in seconds. What stopped you?"

"Well....I will just tell you the truth then...no bull...i respect you as a fighter and as such it wouldn't be fare if i turned and all of a sudden there was a crazy increase in my speed, strength, agility stamina...need i go on...I wanted the battle to be fare so that the winner would really be the one with the better skill and training not the stronger faster one...Just respect." He looked to his glass and saw that it was empty so he raised his hand and got one of the waitress's attention and it was filled quickly as he took it to his lips but then he stopped and then he held it out to Nick." to the best fighter....and to our fans!" He waited until nick taped his glass to his and then he drank down a big gulp as he smiled." Whenever the fight is ready is okay with me...i'm in no rush."

Nick repeated Wesker's words as they made a toast together and he took a long swallow of beer. He gave the other fighter a lop-sided grin and nodded. "I'll let you know. For now I just plan on getting wasted." After they made quick work of their current drinks Nick got the next round in. "Not a bad place this." He said looking over the diner. He happened to notice the hooded figure sitting a few tables away and got a weird feeling from him. Like a bad premonition. He shrugged and turned back to his drink, musta been the booze talking. He thought over Wesker's decision on why he had not gone all wolfy on him in the match. He was ashamed to say he would probably have done so if their positions had been reversed.

Cross kept his back to the two men until he noticed Nick run off to the bathroom. He watched the other man for a moment and was pleased when he asked the waitress to feel Nick's cup. When Nick came back he waited a moment when Nick took a sip then very quickly moved his hand over Nick's glass and put something clear into it. Without being seen by the two men he waited as he began to reach for his glass.
..........................
Hawk kept himself out of sighlt of the hooded figure. Then listening to a voice behind him he didnt take his eyes off of Cross. "It's not the two fighters I am hiding from." When he saw Cross move his hand over towards Nick then back again it was almost missed but he saw it. He moved as quick as he could as he rushed over to Nick and slapped the glass out of his hand. "No!" He yelled. "Something's wrong with it!" He looked to the chair that Cross was in but he wasnt there. He looked to the door and watched him walk out. "Cross!" He yelled as he ran after him but when he got out the door of the diner Cross was no where in sight. "Dammit!" He sighed and walked back into the diner. Walking back to the bar and sitting next to Nick he said, "Cross really doesnt want you to win," He said, "Sorry about the drink but I saw his hand move so I was pretty sure he put something in it. I just wanted to protect you like Amira wanted me too." It wasnt a lie but it wasnt the full truth on a count she didnt know he was here but with his hunch right Nick did have to be watched. "She is feeling better now and wanted me to let you know that your still welcomed back at my place and she should be there when we get there. I'm sure everything is square between you too." He knew what he was saying might have more questions seeing how the other fighter had questions on his face but he also welcomed him too sense he was a werewolf, Amira wouldnt mind him either. At least she hoped. With this deal on the table maybe be best if they both were in their sights at all time. He just waited for his answer.

Nick sighed and leaned back on his stool until his elbows were resting against the counter top. He dropped his head back and moaned quietly. "So now I got some chump tryin' to poison me? Great. I'll come back to yours if you got more beer there." He turned his head to look at Wesker and grinned. "Hey come with us if you like, the less sober I become the funnier I am to have around." He got to his feet and started walking towards the door. "And what's this 'square' thing about?"
