( From hereTamaki's legs were burning. He couldn't remember when he'd run this far and this fast on so little energy. He was beginning to breathe heavily now, and swear, his heavy sweater and jeans not conducive to this level of activity. This wasn't like the stories or movies at all. This was painful and terrifying and

The rooms were almost within sight! Allen breathed a sigh of relief. "You're right," he said as calmly as he could, "they shouldn't have children here. But that one..."

How could he explain it? Like so many things here, "You can't let it touch you," he warned. "The child is searching for its mother, but he's under some kind of curse. If he touches anyone, they get hurt, very badly." His ribs still hadn't quite finished mending after the incident a few nights back.

"Curse, huh?" Sanji couldn't help but wonder if it was a cursed fruit. Had there been such a fruit listed in that book he had? There had been so many, he couldn't remember - especially not in his current state. He also looked over the fact that the child most likely wasn't from his world.

"Tha's terrible." The kid probably didn't even know what he was doing, hurting people while trying to get help.

"Yeah," Allen replied. "There was a... an incident a few nights back." He'd seen Renji and some others rush past, maybe there was a room he could leave Sanji in where he'd be safe.

He hesitated for a moment, hearing voices ahead. He recognized one as Allen's, though, which was a relief. And it sounded like the boy was helping someone. Renji smiled to himself; Allen was such a good kid.

Everything else seemed okay, or as okay as anything was during the night. He headed up the hallway that he figured Suou's room should be in. Almost there.

There wasn’t much further to go until they arrived at his quarters as it was and after initially scanning the area, the knight couldn’t find any sense of danger. He didn’t continue forward after entering into the next area, and instead, the knight waited just on the other side for Cloud to join him.

Cloud was not used to going into this section of hallway. He was a little glad that he had allowed Yuber to lead, since he had never explored the hallways to the dorms yet. He simply knew that his room was further north to their current position.

He paused when he found Yuber waiting for him. He raised an eyebrow in the darkness at the black knight, despite being fairly certain that the gesture would not be seen.

There was a subtle glow within the darkness of the hallway after Cloud entered, and the blue luminance created by the other’s eyes caused a subtle smirk to tug on Yuber’s lips. It was an interesting trait his companion had, and it sparked a small trace of curiosity within the knight.

He pushed his question down for the time being, and instead, huffed softly in amusement as he spoke. “We’re nearly there.” He muttered before turning and making his way down the hallway. Missing the first two hallways, the knight wordlessly moved down the third.

Despite being aware where Yuber's attention was settled, Cloud said nothing. The glow of his eyes was something he tried to keep to himself, since it was difficult to explain to anyone not familiar with his world.

Instead, he just wanted for Yuber to move on and followed the other blonde down the hallway. He had to memorize this new section so that he could find his way back again.

The others seemed to have things under control, so he hurried from the room. The halls were still quiet and the place as creepy as ever, but he didn't let it deter him. He had to find Rinali and the others and make sure they were safe!
