Nightshift 23: 2nd floor staff-only outdoor patio lounging/eating area

[ from here]With VII following closely, Xemnas reached the door at the end of the hall. His hand reached for the doorhandle and turned it, mildly surprised the door happened to be unlocked. While he slowly pushed it open, he felt the cold breeze from outside

Saïx followed the Superior obediently, scarcely giving a trip outside a second thought until he made his way through the doors and onto the outdoor patio. With a single step, VII found himself illuminate in the clear light of a brilliant, full moon

[itneverwas]

Xemnas hadn't even given the moon a second thought. After all, VII had always been perfectly able to control his inner beast, as it was only released with the permission of no one else but the Superior himself

It broke just a second before the Superior would've disappeared back into the hallway they'd just come from. With an un-restrained howl, Saïx lost himself in the sea of red that colored his vision. Sense was lost as he sprung forward like a wild beast, reaching out with one hand to grip Xemnas' shoulder and attempt to pull him back into the open. No pattern or strategy could be found in the Nobody's tactic as he swung wildly with the other hand. Nails hadn't sharpened into claws as he was still decidedly weaker than normal, but fingers would still claw and rake the any flesh they met.

If he only knew what he was doing.

Xemnas had nearly reached the exit, would've disappeared into the darkness of the hallway if he had been even a little faster. A howl broke the silence and before the Superior knew it, a hand reached out for his shoulder. The sudden force on one of his shoulders made him turn as VII pulled him away from the doorway and back onto the patio.

But before Xemnas could even attempt to break free from the Luna Diviner, another hand swung wildly into his direction. It hit him straight in his face, nails digging into the skin, shredding and cutting it. The scratches weren't deep, yet some blood trickled down his cheek.

Xemnas dug his feet into the ground, attempting to prevent Saïx from pulling him even further outside. He clenched the flashlight in one of his hands tightly and swung it into VII's direction.

Recluse had only just stepped out into the (painful, damnable) moonlight before he realized something was wrong. He had stepped into some sort of altercation that he had no intention to take part in.

There was another door a little way along the wall. He stuck to the shadows along the edge of the room, moving quickly towards his destination, keeping an eye on the other two prisoners. He wasn't going to end up as collateral, whatever the problem here was.
