Angela was silent for a moment before sighing.

"I never said the number." She told him simply.

"... just come clean."

Forgive, O Lord,
my little jokes on thee...

James froze when she said that... and he realised what HE had just said. His gaze darted around quickly and erratically, before he looked at her and sighed heavily.

"Well, damn it." he muttered.

"Yeah. Yeah, there's no talking my way out of this." he told her.

"Seems I've been caught." he shrugged.

"With the hand in cookie jar, metaphorically speaking." he chuckled.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"It certainly seems so." Angela agreed.

"so how about you just tell me what happened to those bottles?" She asked.

"And how many more you've stolen in the past."

James was silent for a moment, before he suddenly jumped to his feet. He then shoved her desk forward with all his strength and knocked the chair he was sitting in off to the side.

"Forget it!" he exclaimed.

"I'm outta here!" he told her.

Once he said that, he turned and ran for the office door.

"See ya!"

Angela was caught off guard when the desk was shoved into her abdomen, knocking the air out of her lungs. As she struggled to regain the ability to breathe, she just hit a button that told security to lock the doors and don't let anyone in or out. As there was a potential threat. All the department head offices had one, and she'd given security a heads up it might be needed, considering what she was going to be talking to someone about.

After a minute or two, she just sighed, still not breathing the best, as she got to her feet. She grabbed her phone, and headed out of her office, not sure where James had gone. She also called security, not sure who was there and working atm.

"Yo. Lock the doors if you haven't. Someone's on the run, and it'd be much better if he didn't get out of the building."

Jake was the one that answered.

"Got it." he said.

"Doing so now." he told her, before pausing.

"What does the suspect look like?" he asked.

"Who are we on the lookout for?'

"James Vesper." Angela told him honestly.

"He's .... well, he pretty much admitted to stealing medications." She added. "Just... catch him and lock him somewhere for now. I'm going to go talk to Hal."

"Let me know if you find him."

".....got it." Jake replied.

"I'll put the word out to the other security guards." he told her.

With that, the call was ended, and as she left her office, she saw Nate on the floor against the wall, just getting to his feet.

"...gonna take a wild guess here." he said.

"James took the medicine." he said further.

"He darted past me, shoving me against the wall and bolted out of the medical wing."

"Yep." Angela answered.

"You ok?" She asked, concern in her voice.

"He's already in enough trouble, I'd rather not add more to it. I liked him." She added with a sigh.

"I'm fine." Nate responded.

"He didn't hurt me, just caught me off-guard." he assured her.

"..." he was then silent, before looking in the direction that James had run off to.

"This doesn't make sense." he said. "James seemed so... well, nice. Maybe a little bit of an ass, but... he did good work here and got along with everyone." he said further.

"Stealing medicine...? Running when confronted with something? What the hell is going on?" he wondered aloud.

Angela just sighed.

"I have no idea." She commented.

"I wish I knew, but I really don't." She added with a light shake of her head.

"Anyway, I'm going to go and help look for him, hopefully find him before he potentially hurts someone else."

"All right." Nate replied.

"If I can help, let me know." he told her. "...though I doubt I can." he sighed.

"Anyway, I won't hold you up." he then said, getting out of her way.

"...are you all right?" he then asked.

"He seemed panicked when he ran off, he didn't hurt you or anything, did he?"

"Just needed to learn to breathe again." Angela answered honetly.

"Shoved my desk into my torso. May have damaged it, didn't check, but knocked the wind outta me." She added.

"Probably got a good bruise as I still hurt like a bitch, but I'll tend to that after."

"...hm. I see." Nate responded.

"That's... that's... hm." he mumbled.

"That could be concerning." he said.

"If there's anything I can do to help, let me know." he told her further.

"...not sure WHAT I can do, but... yeah?" he shrugged.

"I'll worry about it after." Angela told him simply.

"I can breathe, I'm ok." She continued. "For the moment, at least"

"Anyway, I'm off." With that, she headed off, dialing Hal's number in the process. Sadly, she reached his voicemail, which wasn't super surprising.

"If you get this in time, and happen to see James Vesper, don't let him out of your sight." She said simply. "And yes, I realise you're likely on the phone with security at the moment about the lockdown." She finished with before hanging up with a light sigh. This was something she was going to have to hope went well. There was no way to know whether or not James would get out without being caught, and she really did hope that didn't happen.

As she walked, there was silence around her, for the most part. She heard the faint buzzing of conversation behind closed doors, but nothing out of the ordinary... until she heard something in the distance.

It sounded like a confrontation.

And she heard James' voice.

Odds were good that a member or two of security had found him, or he was having an altercation with another unit member.

Angela didn't hesitate before moving quickly, and getting there. She was almost running, but knew that was a bad idea in the medwing, so she made it a point not to. However, she did want to get there quickly. As she arrived, she noticed a short woman having seemingly been thrown aside and getting to her feet, the crystalline elements fo her seeming to flash.

"Oi! That ain't cool." The goblin half snapped.

"Look. Cooperate adn it'll be a lot lighter the trouble." She then said as she approached, ready to defend as need be. Angela, meanwhile, just made her way into the room and used some of her fae mana to block the doors.

At least James couldn't leave, if nothing else.

James backed up against a corner, and stared down the short woman.

"Get away from me!" he yelled.

"Leave me alone! Let me be!" he shouted.

"Just let me go! Please!" he then said, sounding like he was... pleading.

"I don't want anyone to get hurt! I don't want anyone to die!"

"What the hell are you going on about?" The short woman asked with a bit of a snarl. She was not impressed, at all.

"I'm wondering the same thing." Angela commented.

"Is there more to this than can be seen?"

James looked over towards Angela, and she saw he was... crying.

"Please..." he pleaded further, falling to his knees.

"I have to be able to leave here..." he told the two females.

"I have to go. I can't be trapped here." he continued.

"We're all in danger if I'm here past 7." he warned them further.
