Night 58: Main Hallway, 1-West

Sesshoumaru had not been in the building for nearly long enough to really know it, and his knowledge had not been expanded yesterday as it might otherwise have been, because of the poisons that had been fed into his system - poisons that somehow worked, which had been a disconcerting and unpleasant experience. In the end, though, all ( Read more... )

The hall had never seemed so long or agonizing before, but it still took what felt like an eternity for Kratos to finally make his way to where he was meant to be. Every step now brought with it the trepidation of hearing her voice in his ear, of turning around and actually finding her in some dark corner, a herald of his own, premature demise.

If he had to die again, at least let it be later on after he and Soma had more thoroughly explored the medical wing.

The thought that maybe he would simply hear things and not suffer anything more did cross his mind, but again, that fear of experiencing her death all over again overwhelmed the idea and continued to assure him that at some point this night, he would find himself run through. It was supremely ironic that a man who sought his own death might actually fear it once it loomed large in front of him, but Kratos, if he were to die, wanted death on his own terms; he wanted his end to be his alone, and not, of all people's, Anna's.

He couldn't say with much certainty how much time had passed, but what he could say was that Soma's arrival could not have been more timely. The voices had only crept in once during that dreadful span, but Kratos was sure that any longer alone, and he might have actually gone insane. But now a distraction had arrived; he could try to focus on her instead.

"It's of little consequence," he said, acting as if everything was perfectly normal. "What matters is that you're here now, so we may properly begin." He peeled himself away from the wall and began walking down the hall. "Sora was quite clear in his directions, so I don't believe there is anything more that we need to address."
