Night 57: Main Hallway, 1-East

[antiheroed]

[ from here]As far as Riku knew-which wasn't a reliable piece of information in the least-this was approaching new territory for him. It was the first time he tempted fate by going somewhere without one of his friends since he first woke up in this place. If it wasn't Sora or Kairi that was there with him, it was Naminé; to some degree, each one had

This was a part of the institute Zack didn't know as well. He paused for a moment, casting his flashlight beam around as he tried to get his bearings. To the left was a hallway that seemed to go down pretty far and which contained a number of doors. That probably wasn't what they were looking for, and yet it was worth noting anyway.

There was a staircase to the right which was also good to know about, and yet Zack was guessing that they were going to have to press forward to find what they were looking for. He started to do so a bit more slowly, wanting to take everything in and put it to memory.

"So, are you planning to try those drugs?" he asked Rose. He didn't expect her to and it might be best if only one of them took that bullet, but he was curious to hear what she had to say either way. He wasn't going to stop her if she wanted to, seeing how that would be hypocritical, and yet he couldn't shake some of his nervousness about this. It was, no matter what way you looked at it, a bad idea.

Rose stayed close behind him, keeping an eye out the way they'd come in case something decided to be clever and try to sneak up on them. Everything looked different after dark, the dimensions, the feel of the building that had seemed so simple and stark a short while ago.

At his question, she glanced up at him and took a moment to think. "I don't know. I haven't decided yet. It would be handy to have a weapon in this place. The voice said we could choose either that or a pin. I'm not sure what good the pins are. Do you?"

The drugs themselves were another matter entirely. What would taking them even do to her? Medicine wasn't something Rose had ever really had to worry about and she doubted that whatever the masterminds here had laid out would have the same effect on her as it would on humans. Or any effect, for that matter. Of course, that could be her being optimistic. The drugs could also do much worse things to her than a normal human, she supposed.

Was it worth a weapon? There was no way to guess without trying, she supposed.

So she hadn't decided. In that case it was probably best if Zack took the drugs first, saw what happened, and then they could go from there. That way she could at least keep an eye on him at first and have his back in the event that something completely catastrophic happened. If not, then she could take the plunge herself and then they could both benefit from it
