Night 38: F21-F30 Hallway

Jan 24, 2009 19:46

Ururu hadn't talked much during dinner. Talking to Yukito during fourth shift had made her feel a little better, and she'd eaten something, but she still wasn't happy. She wasn't crying anymore though, and that was a good thing. She had promised to meet Kurt that night, and Ururu knew it was important. She wanted Kurt to know that he was still ( Read more... )

As soon as the doors unlocked, Chidori bolted out into the hallway. She ignored the doctor's announcement--she was fully aware that there were new patients, or at least one new patient, and didn't need him to tell her so.

Chidori's first instinct was to start looking for Junpei right away, but she was unarmed and not exactly the best fighter of Strega, and what good would it do her to die in the process of trying to find him? What if he happened on her dead body? Chidori didn't want to hurt Junpei like that. So she needed help, and there was only one place she could possibly go.

F23, after Signum leaves light_wicca January 25 2009, 20:42:06 UTC
Dinner had gone by rather quietly, but Willow didn't mind this time. She was busy tracing out potential paths on her map, and hoping that tonight would last a little bit longer than they usually did for her. She didn't know where to find metal around here, but Angel would probably know. She had to make sure to at least get the metal. Then they could try the file rooms again, and see if there was any connection with the kinds of people who ended up here.

Hopefully Anya would come meet them here too. They weren't the best of friends, but the thought of Anya just disappearing... it sent shivers down Willow's spine.

Momo came to talk to Signum in the hall shortly after the doors unlocked, which meant that Angel should be on his way, too. Willow gathered everything together while she waited, anxious to get started as soon as possible.

Angel knocked on the door before twisting the doorknob, opening it slightly. He already knew that Anya wasn't here -- he could neither hear her nor smell her -- and he had the feeling that no, she really wasn't going to show. Her room was closer, after all. If she was here, she would've arrived before him.

"Hey."

He'd seen Willow speaking to Skuld earlier on the board today, which probably meant they'd have to start gathering supplies soon. Though there was Anya's sword; he'd be giving to Willow -- any blade was better than no blade -- but they weren't the easiest weapon to handle without any practice.

Willow paused for a moment when she heard the knock, but Angel's voice dashed any hopes that maybe Anya was still here and had decided to join them without letting them know. She should have been here before Angel if that was the case.

Willow glanced up as she picked up her flashlight. "Isn't there a room somewhere with the files of people who've been... discharged?" Wasn't that the word the nurses used? If they didn't find Anya's file...

Angel nodded, handing Willow the sword. "I'm not sure if it's upstairs or downstairs, though. The map has two separate file rooms."

Though logically speaking, anything regarding the discharged patients would be more likely upstairs, wouldn't they? Things that didn't need as much access tended to be a bit further out of the way.

"I saw you found Skuld," he added.

Kira slowed as he finally reached the hallway and made his way down to the door where Hinamori was. At the moment, she seemed occupied, and with a woman who was heavily armed. He stood just across the hall from the door, watching them with careful eyes. Hinamori wore two blades - one on her back, one at her right hip ... for her, neither was a familiar place to find a sword. Hadn't she, like most of them, worn her blade on her left side?

He waited patiently, willing to spend the entire night just standing there in silence until she was ready. He wouldn't waste another night - not if she had something for him to do.

Momo had caught sight of Kira and, after a few quick words to the tall pink-haired knight, approached him. Now that she was closer, it was quite clear the sword she wore on her back had been Hitsugaya's, and she stopped close to her friend.

She lightly touched his chest and sighed, wishing Kira had his uniform; she felt very odd being the only shinigami other than Ichimaru with hers. She met her friend's eyes.

"How are you doing, Kira?"

The sword was ...

Of course. She had gone after him, hadn't she? And now she had his sword, which could only mean that she'd seen him go down, or at the very least his body. There was no other way to have taken it, as he doubted anyone else would have found it and handed it over.

If she was grieving, she didn't show it. A pang of guilt twisted in Kira's stomach as she touched his chest.

"I'm fine. What about you?" He tried to look at her and kept his gaze as level as possible.

She laughed. It was ridiculous to do so, but she laughed, humorlessly, for a moment. "My insides are tearing apart and a part of me wants to hide in my bed, willing myself to no longer exist, but I'm here and I'm doing what needs to be done," she replied quietly, once she'd gotten control over the bizarre laughter. Her eyes dropped. "He wouldn't want me to give up, no matter how tempting it is - neither of them would."

She paused a moment. "If I listen hard enough, sometimes it feels like I can hear him calling me a dummy for having such thoughts. It makes it a little easier to put one foot in front of the other."

Okay, it looked like she had two projects that were on the large side to do again tonight... but she'd had ice cream for dinner again, so she should be good for it!

As frustrated as Skuld was with her situation, she had a job to do, and she wasn't going to let anything discourage her from it. She grabbed her journal and flipped through it to find the relevant arrays.

[coming from here]

By very carefully placing each step on his admittedly short trip across the hallway, Hanatarou had managed to arrive outside of F30 with his armload of pipes still in his arms and not scattered across the floor. But once there he realized he had a bit of a dilemma.

He glanced up and down the hallway uncertainly, then down at his very full arms, then at the door in front of himself. "Ah...um, Skuld-san?" he called, hoping the person he was supposed to meet could hear him. "It's, um, Hanatarou with the metal you needed? Er...if you could maybe open the door...?"

How much had he brought? "Coming!" Skuld jumped up and opened the door. "Uh... figured better safe than sorry?" That was kind of a little too much for one sword.

"Oh, I heard from the person above you," she added. "She's coming too, but I can do two people at once, it looks like."

Hanatarou blinked at the girl who opened the door, managing a somewhat weak smile and nod. "I, er, didn't know how much you'd need," he replied. "Maybe you could, um, use the leftovers for something, or...someone else might need it?"

He moved forward with somewhat exaggerated caution, trying to see where he was placing his feet lest he somehow trip over nothing yet again and drop the entire load. "Do...does it take a long time? I can, um, leave this here and come back tomorrow, if it's too much work for you?"
