[Getting in and out of that hidey hole is a bit of a chore, for someone Wolfwood's size. What's more, he's acting cautiously, in case there are any more lunatics waiting in the alley outside to jump anyone coming by. He's not in the best shape to retaliate if they are - it would be great if he had any kind of weapon. Or his strength.
After a while though he does make it outside. It's eerily quiet, compared to the night before. Deserted. That doesn't make him feel much better, but it's preferable to finding a mob. Once he's oriented himself and found the window that lines up with Maya's place, he squats and knocks on it three times.
And then he loiters, waiting. If she's going to follow him outside he's going to wait until she does so.]
[ presumably she will have heard him swearing under his breath his way out, which is probably the only indication she got that he wasn't getting horribly mauled or killed. once he's gone, she starts to tidy up, despite there being very little to tidy up. then tap tap tap ]
[ he said "Don't follow me if I don't tap on that window"... but he tapped? so he wants her to follow? well, he hasn't really given her an answer to anything she asked him, so.... at least he's consistent ]
[ she isn't too keen to go out there herself, but.... well. maybe there are others who need help. and if he wants her to go with him, he probably won't let her get murdered. apparently, that's good enough. so she stashes the butter knife and the mask in her hoodie and heads out. ]
[ a couple of minutes later he will spot her comically peeking out at him from behind the wall. very subtle ]
[He's been in that spot for more than a few minutes now, just keeping an eye on both ends of the alley way. Desperately wishing he had a cigarette - loitering without one is just sad.
When Maya peeks out he turns his head and nods.]
Looks that way. I haven't heard a damn thing since coming out here. [Rising to his feet, Wolfwood casts another look down the left hand end of the alley.] Either it's over, or they've moved on from here.
[ she peeks out for a second more, as if scanning the perimeter.... then fully comes out from behind the wall, coming over to him. ]
It'd be nice if it was over.... [ she sighs a bit, looking over her own injuries. it'd be nice to be able to walk outside without worrying about getting murdered. but she doesn't want to look vulnerable in front of this guy, so she gives him a grin ]

Guess it's up to us to investigate then, huh?
[ begin investigation pays in the bg.... ]

Don't know about that, but I'm ready to get out of this filthy alleyway. There's gotta be someone else out there that can explain it all. --right.
[He jerks his thumb towards the street-end of the alleyway and starts walking.]
Try to keep up.
