A voice in the back of his mind told him that the fire in the bathroom was a setup, a distraction. Because, let's be honest, what would be the point of setting a fire in the bathroom unless it was to divert attention from something else? The nagging voice in the back of his mind was never wrong, but what could be done? It wasn't like they could allow the fire to continue in the bathroom. [break][break] A shout from behind him almost made him spin around, his fist ready to swing, expecting someone to sneak up. He might not care for violence, but that didn't mean he wouldn't knock someone out if they thought they could get the drop on him. He barely refrained from doing so, and it was lucky that he did. Instead, he chose to glance over his shoulder just in time to see the girl from before dart away from the punch table. [break][break] It didn't take a genius to figure out what had happened. He was about ready to go after her himself, but Sterling was already heading in that direction. As they promised to take care of it, he nodded before whipping around to pin the guy who had told them about the bathroom fire with a glare. [break][break] "If you were one of the ones who orchestrated that," he paused to gesture towards the punch table, "you and I will be having words," he finished before stalking towards the bathroom to put out the fire. [break][break] Threats weren't usually his thing, but if there was one thing he hated, it was being made a fool of. Though in reality, the worst that would happen was the perpetrators being given a lecture before being handed over to the proper authorities. But they didn't need to know that. [break][break] Heading to the mens room, he encountered no further people. Unknown to him, the dark expression on his face was enough to deter others from getting in his way as he approached the men's room. [break][break] Upon entering the men's room, he was relieved to find that the fire wasn't a big one. For now, it was contained to the trash can, so it hadn't really started to spread. Which was a good thing. Still, it wouldn't do to waste time. [break][break] So, without further ado, he turned on one of the sinks and allowed the water to run as he filled a bottle with water. Then, he poured the water over the fire. He continued the process until the fire was out before inspecting the trash can where the fire had been. [break][break] At first, he didn't see anything. Then, he noticed the cigarette in the trash. 'Of course,' he thought, resisting the urge to roll his eyes. While it was likely that the fire had been accidentally caused by throwing a still lit cigarette in the trash can, he doubted it. The girl trying to get him and Sterling to party, the fire in the bathroom soon after they had dismissed her attempts, and the spiked punch right after they had been called away to check out the fire. It all seemed too convenient to just be a coincidence. [break][break] Resisting the urge to sigh, he made his way out of the bathroom, his face set into a neutral expression. The first thing he needed to do was to tell Sterling about his findings, and then see if that guy from before knew anything. [break][break] "There was a cigarette in the trash," he said upon reaching the other's side. "But something tells me that the fire in the trash can was no accident. Someone set it, knowing that we would have to go do something about it."[break] STERLING WARDEN
