Sarah nodded a few times while her friend spoke, although it'd be hardly visible in the darkness. It was as she suspected then. Smile flickered on her lips when the newspaper clippings were mentioned. There was the motive she had been seeking, she was rather sure of it. But when red-head brought up matter of their leader, she sobered up. No reason to get ahead of themselves, the case was still in the solving. Besides, they had to find their friend.

The girl turned around and headed out of the building and around the corner, sniffling with slight disdain as the smell entered her nose once more, although the fog was clearing up some now. Sarah wandered off of the road slightly, carefully feeling her way through the mist so she wouldn't lose her footing and tumble down. Despite her efforts, sneakers slid in grass and mud few times, but she managed to keep her balance. She called out for Allan few times and jumped when rumbling started, in distance, yet close enough for her to realize it was on the property.

Knowing her friend, he'd probably go investigating. Ah, yes, that was probably the reason he had left in the first place - temptation to figure what was making this crazy fog. And without letting her know, of course. Sarah's mouth formed thin line for a moment, as she moved in noise's direction, back on the road and then down. At least she had Ellie with her and faint traces of general plan. Somewhere around the middle of the path, a shape suddenly appeared in the fog and the girl moved on the side, grasping her bag tighter, but they still nearly collided.

"Allan!" she sighed in relief and then took note of his appearance and worry lines settled in her forehead. "Are you alright? Did you find something?" Sarah asked and then proceeded to bring him up to date with what Ellie and Alex had found. If he said he had found something of interest, they could go and investigate it, but the girl thought it might be wiser to go and take photos of the evidence in the building's basement and cave (and expressed as such).

Not to mention, Alex probably would appreciate Allan's help with making the trap. They made quite amazing team for that. Even if she didn't particularly appreciate the whole trap-business, it was somewhat fascinating to watch the two guys create intricate devices from very little. Their adaptability in this situations were truly envy-worthy. She knew how to work machines when they were made, could read tech schemes, but beyond that, she was basically useless.

Hopefully, they'd now be on their way back to the building, Sarah slightly out of breath and trudging behind the two other. She fished around her bag for inhaler and took two puffs, holding her breath and counting to 10 after each, as it was advised. The girl regretted not taking her allergy pill this morning, but what's too late, that's too sorry. As they entered yoga studio, she once more used her phone as flashlight and let Ellie lead the way to basement. She turned on the light (down here, it couldn't attract unwanted attention) so she could properly take photos of the evidence, eyes skimming over the clippings quickly.
