He just wanted to go to sleep already. This place was way too much. After having found one of the dispensers that whoever-he-was-again had told him about, Lavi had put on his new eye-patch (thank god), and walked the halls for hours in the dark, attempting to make sense of the place's layout even though he could barely see a thing. Finally, he'd made his way to his own apartment, rather worn out and vary, to give his head (which was still slightly heavy from the drugs; this stuff seemed to take a while to wear off) a few hours rest.

Then he'd continue to look for his comrades. He couldn't remember signing the contract that had put him in this situation in the first place - no matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't - but at least he knew himself well enough to be certain that he wouldn't have done it without a good reason, and he also wouldn't have done it by himself.

Yet, he hadn't been able to detect anyone that he knew from home. It made him feel horribly uncertain, and he hated to feel that lost (he was used to always, always

Road felt a little silly after reading Joshua's email. Here she was, hiding in bed like... Go on, it's the truth... Like a girl. A human girl. This wouldn't do. Where was her pride in being a superior human? Road took strength from chiding herself and disentangled herself from the bedclothes, rifling through the wardrobe until she found some black tights and a blue skirt, as well as the twin to the ruffled blouse she'd been wearing. The clothes made her feel better, a little. She straightened up, grabbed a glowing stick in each hand, and sauntered to the stairs.

She was three stairs down when she heard someone step into the apartment.

He'd figured that his own apartment would be dark as well, and that the only other option was to feel his way through the room, and hope that he didn't loose a knee or something. So therefore, he was pretty surprised to find that he could see way better from the moment he opened the door, what with a slightly creepy light casting long shadows over the neat little compartment.

Blinking, he looked up, as in a moment, he'd realized that someone was standing in the stairs, holding up two glowing sticks. It took him about another half second to recognise just who's face it was that was being lit up by the dim light, and therefore, his mouth had already started running before realization hit him.

"Hey, that's homey, I've even got my own welcoming commi-- ...you!"

Him.

Of all the people that could have walked into the apartment - his apartment? - she had never expected it to be HIM. Lavi. The one who killed her.

If the blood drained from her face, the light of the glowsticks hid it, making her expression of shock something more horrifying to behold. Her response was, if anything, less articulate than Lavi's.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Road let out the scream that only females can manage, the one that manages to convey mortal peril while deafening everyone within half a mile. Lavi cringed - a perfectly normal reaction to the sound.

She didn't exactly want to, but she trusted that he wouldn't have that hammer of his, and he was blocking the way out...

...Road charged down the stairs, lightsticks held out like swords.
