[Once Annabeth is in the crowd, she has to duck a bit -- she's taller than some, but not all, and her blonde hair is pretty standout. She catches glimpse of Yelena behind her and sighs with relief, but that's all she allows herself. She needs to focus on weaving through the crowd as quickly as she can without drawing too much attention.]
[But she's quick, too -- athletic and agile, able to avoid collisions with most others. She keeps her knife close at her side, even though the blade won't hurt any normal humans.]
[The crowd starts thinning, and Annabeth slows to a pace matching Yelena's. She steals a glance behind them; so far, not followed. But the next part of her plan -- the where to next -- requires a question she's not sure will get an answer. But she'll have a back up if denied.]
I know you don't really want to tell me, but what sector do you live in? I can come with you, and then get back to mine invisibly.
