Early the next morning, Colby Jefferson broods over a nice breakfast and a cup of coffee. She's still concerned about Nikki Kade, but any and all efforts to find her have been fruitless so far. She was called off from searching the woods, and has to simply trust that Miss USA won't actually do anything that terrible. If she does.....
Colby thinks back to her experience pummelling Nika outside by the pool. She had liked it, a little too much. It felt good. There was wrestling, and then there was taking a defenseless person's well-being and safety into your hands like that. She had let Nika off comparatively easily. But Colby had never imagined herself to have a taste for that kind of power.
She didn't like it, not one bit. But she kinda did.
Colby blinks and refocuses as Amy Flame joins her in the dining room. Amy had also been out late.
>"Hey, Amelia."
Colby's smile is genuine, but she's obviously preoccupied and it lacks some of its usual warmth. Her mind casts about wildly for something to talk about that's not Nikki.
>"I, umm..... ran into Sola Fire down at the Dojo the other day. We talked, and I apologized. I think we cleared the air between us. Anyway, I told her I was looking for Carmody, but she didn't seem to know anything other than that Carmie's got some place she's staying that's not the Dojo."
Carmody had texted her last night, to let her know about Nikki. But she wasn't responding to Colby's texts this morning.
>"And Sola mentioned you. She wants to talk to you, sometime when you get time."
