A giant key. Man, if only he could see that. But Sora's key had probably been taken along with all their other belongings, like the guns that he was looking for, so it was pretty unlikely that he'd get to see it anytime soon.

Still...maybe he could convince Sora to draw it or something later. He really wanted to have a visual, because there were so many different types of keys. Where he was from, the things were rare, artifacts from a lost age, and there were so many other technological security measures that one could set for something.

Before too long, the boys reached the end of the hall, and Sora opened the door at the end. "Come on!" he said over his shoulder as he walked through it, and Junior followed, quite pleased to find that it led outside. However, it didn't take long to also see that they weren't alone. It seemed as though there was some trouble going on out here. There was a long man with long black hair and a woman who seemed to be causing some problems, and both seemed to be facing a smaller building.

"Want to see what's up?" the redhead asked Sora.

[ From here. ]

Even though Sora could barely see a thing, he was pleased that they had made it outside. They were only on a moist, grassy field of some sort--and it wasn't even wild considering how well-trimmed the grass was--but it was something. He wasn't used to being cooped up inside for so long. Most people weren't, but he'd spent the majority of his childhood outside. Inside had been boring, after all.

The times they were let out into the gardens or the courtyard was preferable to wandering around outside at night, when there was no doubt nasty creatures about, but he wasn't going to scorn his good luck.

Unfortunately, the happiness of being outdoors was soon crushed when he also realized that something was wrong. He couldn't see particularly well, but he heard the sounds of a scuffle and some rather crazed laughing. It wasn't a special counseling night, was it? He didn't recall the intercom announcing it...

What was going on, then?

Figuring it might be a good idea to approach the scene quietly, he only nodded at Junior before slowly heading across the field.

[ Sora is getting distracted over here. ]
