The game room made Heath feel more like he was being treated as a child than any other place in the Institute. It might have just been the selection they had to choose from. A deck of cards was a safe choice and would hopefully keep him from attracting much more energetic company. Yet as he sat down and began shuffling them between his hands he ( Read more... )

[from here]The decor of this hallway certainly appeared more sinister than that of the room before. Once the group entered the hall, Faize swept the light of his flashlight over the walls, revealing tapestries of an unsettling nature. The Eldarian paused in his steps, studying the gruesome images and wondering whether they were mere fiction, or if ( Read more... )

[from here]Hitsugaya dropped down into the courtyard, the lush lawn cushioned the sounds of his fall. He then quickly took cover behind a nearby tree while waiting for his teammates to follow. Just because he didn't see any enemies didn't mean they weren't lurking out there. The nightshift was radically different from the dayshift. As soon as night ( Read more... )

[Running in from here]Thankfully, that rambling from the Sun Room didn't come through any farther the Cafeteria doors. Half the time, she didn't know whether this building just wanted to annoy her or drive her insane. Either way, they weren't going to get what they wanted, not out of Dahlia Hawthorne ( Read more... )

[From here.]It didn't strike Peter until he was on the grass and staring at the moon that the last time he'd gone out this way, it had been to collect Harry. The thought was a sobering one to say the least, particularly when he was the only soul on the field. No one but him and the great outdoors. Except replace 'great outdoors' with 'big fat death ( Read more... )

Sai changed quickly. Whether he was less emotionally stable that usual or not, he was far better off than he'd been the night before. He would perform the mission required of him tonight. It was nothing that should put anyone's lives at stake, and holing himself up would only decrease his ability to perform his duties later ( Read more... )
