Nightshift 30: Main Hallway 1-Center

[ Coming from here.]Luckily, they were at the far end of the hall and could back away from the fight now taking place in the hallway outside the patient blocks. Tyler kept casting backwards glances over his shoulder as he and Reid fled. As they dashed to a safe distance down into the main stretch of hall, he finally had to slow and stop, feeling ( Read more... )

There it was again, that whole ‘other powers’ thing. Even if he was a warlock with secret, witchy powers, that didn’t mean he wasn’t getting that X Files sense whenever someone went all, ‘Oh yeah, brainwashing and mutant powers, completely normal’. Reid wasn’t much interested in athletics, but he knew (sometimes) when to book it, so he accepted the retreat with as much tact as Reid was capable.

Which wasn’t much. He kept spinning back on his heel, wanting to be a part of the action even if he shouldn’t.

But Tyler having to stop and catch his breath made him pause--taking everything they were normally capable of into consideration, that had been nothing. "What’s wrong with you? Can you even make it anywhere?" He wasn’t the most prolific person when it came to voicing concern.

"I don't know," Tyler answered, trying to catch his breath, a puzzled expression on his face. He shook his head, straightening, and met Reid's gaze. "Something weird. Maybe it's just the drugs still in my system. I don't know."

He glanced up and down the dark hallway, shining the beam of his flashlight down the long corridor, spotting nothing but more halls and doorways. "I don't even know where to start," he muttered in frustration. Tyler wasn't used to being the one making the decisions.

He didn't know?

Reid gave him a weird look, shooting Tyler's hunched form an up-and-down appraisal. The barb 'Maybe you're just out of shape' came to his tongue, but he didn't say it. Instead, he flicked his flashlight up to point straight at the doors to the entryway.

"Front door sound good to you?" It was a fairly rhetorical question. Glancing to the side at the sound of footsteps, his tone dipped slightly, but not by much. "But before that, let's try. Our Power. Let's try right now."

"Try it on what? How?" Tyler asked, surprised, as he glanced up to meet Reid's gaze, blue eyes wide and dark in the illumination of the flashlight.

In truth, he was half-hesitant and half-afraid to try. What would he do if it was gone? Really gone for good? Could they do that? Was it something he could restore once they left or found a way out?

With the introduction of yet more strangers into the area, just vague people-shapes, Reid made an impatient noise and grabbed Tyler's arm.

He pulled him farther down the hallway, putting his first suggestion on hiatus.
