Nightshift 26: F-Block Hallway

Shining the flashlight around the corner, Rukia didn't see any other patients around, which was fine with her at the moment. She wanted to get to Colonel Mustang quickly, and hopefully Renji wouldn't take too long to meet her...

Jogging along quietly, she continued on.

[Coming back through from here.]

Rukia made her way into the F-block, taking the familiar path to her the hallway in which her room was located.

[And going here.]

Crossing the wide hallway, Rukia shined her flashlight at the doorway to the bathrooms, and headed inside.

[Going here.]

As she stepped into the second, larger hallway, Ami nervously noticed that she seemed to be one of the only people wandering around. Maybe I should have just stayed in my room? Panic started to build up but she forced it down. Don't be silly! she scolded herself mentally. You're a sailor senshi and you've faced a lot worse than dark, empty corridors. Steeling herself once more, Ami waited close to the hallway she had just stepped out from for Usagi to appear. Not wanting to draw attention to herself, she kept the flashlight off, and listened.

[Waiting for Usagi]

Usagi entered the hallway and looked around. There were only a few other people moving around, so it only took a second for her eyes to adjust and settle on Ami. After two nights without her friends it was weird to see one standing in the dark hallway, but that didn't mean she wasn't glad for it.

"Ami!" Usagi called out as quietly as she could as she jogged over to her friend, this time without falling on her face. Ami had said they would be meeting up with other people, but Usagi wished they had more time to talk alone.

Ami kept a sharp eye out as a couple of people trickled past before she heard a familiar voice calling her name. Two blonde meatballs were coming towards her out of the dark, and Ami had to smile. Typical Usagi, running late.

"Usagi!" Ami greeted her best friend, even more glad that the one person she was in here with was Usagi. "I'm glad we have a chance to talk before we meet up with everyone else," she whispered, so as not to be overheard. "Please tell me you have your crystal to change?" Ami had the horrible feeling she knew what Usagi was going to say.

"I don't..." Usagi replied reluctantly, her shoulders drooping. Ami was probably counting on her to still have some of her power, but she was going to be let down.

"I mean, I don't have it physically... but I don't think the doctors have it either. I met someone else who said he shouldn't be able to survive without his power. I would be dead or at least unconscious by now... so maybe it's back inside me?" That made the most sense, and a power block wasn't nearly as bad as someone else having the crystal.

Every turn was turned, every step fell in the quickest path to the expansive room that River would come to call a daily stop during Nightshift. It was her home, her point of re-entry and point of purpose so it seemed. But musical musings were not to be tolerated at the moment. Not when the weapon had a mission.

If Axel didn't know better he'd have to say that this block smelt more pleasant than the others, but maybe it was just him. Either way, he knew he was getting closer to his destination. The redhead could only hope that Sora didn't pull something stupid and sweep Kairi up without him knowing. If that were the case, then he'd have to make sure to pick the brunet up and drop him off the railing he'd seen from the Sun Room.

Anise could see the lights of other flashlights. Were they all other patients? She wondered if the nurses and staff came out at night, too. All the more reason to hurry, right? Waving her own flashlight around playfully, she continued left.
