The entry hallway to the second level happened to be quiet--dare she say, virtually deserted. Tear gave a thoroughly look and feel for the area before signalling Mikado to move ahead. She remained by his side, keeping all senses open for potential dangers. Hopefully none was present, but with this building, a person could never be

Daemon moved down the hall, his flashlight beam illuminating the way, his expression turning serious once more the deeper they moved into the second floor. One never knew what was lurking in the shadows up here. At least they'd avoided the larger rooms tonight.

He needed to not dwell on that, not unless he could use it to make his determination to escape and rescue seem greater. There was a lot he needed to figure out how to just deal with these days. And it was better to think about missing River than missing someone else.

Angry really wasn't going to help anyone right now. He needed to keep reminding himself that. Except he didn't seem to have anywhere other than depressed to go if he wasn't just mad as all hell.

Daemon's pace slowed for a moment at Renji's quiet sigh, pausing so the redhead could fall into step beside him. When he did, Daemon reached out, hand briefly squeezing the other male's shoulder in understanding. This place had taken so many. It was all he could do to force himself to move some days, with the size of the whole this place had ripped from him. Renji had things just as badly. They'd both had friends here. Family. Loved ones. Now they were somehow the only ones left.

"Come on," he murmured softly. "The supply rooms should be just down here."
