Gabriel was determined to find the witch, even though it seemed like Lori had lost all hope in finding the witch or Jack and Sabine. He had watched her be extremely hopeful on the flight to New York only to be dejected once they arrived at the empty apartments. He wished there was a way he could make her feel better but he suspected that the only thing that would make her feel better was an actual lead. A promising one.
From his findings Sabine had left in a hurry leaving no personal items but her lingering scent, a few of the witch’s personal items were scattered around the apartments and Gabriel suspected that if he tried hard enough he could track her by scent. There was enough of her scent in the room to master. And he spent time memorizing the scent while he looked through the little personal belongings she had left.
There were some random books, all of which the writing looked incorrigible. She was probably practicing and writing down spells, that was what it looked
like.
Then there were some old clothes, those ones he had taken his time to sniff and he had stuffed the one with the most recent scent down in his pocket so he could use it later. He stumbled across a receipt. A receipt for some candles and special herbs, he had been almost ready to dispose of it until he looked
closer.
It was no ordinary receipt. And the date was very recent. Two days ago, but it was the address that caught his eye. A witch was never far from her apothecary. Depending on how frequent they performed spells, they would often visit the shops around them to restock on herbs, candles and whatnot.
This address was in New York, far from the apartments but it gave him a better lead.
Chinatown.

There was no other reasons she’d go and get herbs that far unless she lived in the area. Or knew people in the area. He was going to find her.
“Let’s go.”

He urged Lori as he reappeared back into the room where Jack had been.
Lori looked up at him with resignation etched in her features.
‘Where?’
‘I found the witch’s address. We have to leave now.”
Her eyes lit up in surprise as she stood up.
‘Okay. Okay,”
She murmured and they left.

After a while they arrived in the busy streets of Chinatown and Gabriel tried to track her down solely by scent. He tried looking for the shop but with the rows and rows of tightly packed shops, it was going to be hard. Besides, he didn’t want to lose her scent just yet.
“Anything?!”

Lori murmured as she walked behind him. Her eyes had been looking around for the shop, while Gabriel was focused on the scent. She dreaded his answer as she waited with bated breath.
Suddenly, Gabriel paused.
“I think I found something.”
He murmured.
“What?!”
She asked in excitement.
‘A scent.”
He replied and she nodded.
