Nightshift 39: West Wing, North Hall 1-A

This hallway was slightly vaster than the one that held the cellblocks, but still very, very dark. Various inmates crossed this corridor, slightly illuminating the place with their light-emitting rods.

No sign of creatures. Lockdown stood aside, waiting for Starscream to take the lead again.

"This way," the Air Commander quickly whispered, motioning southward with his light. "We have a few more long hallways like this one to traverse."

[ruthless_hunter]

Lockdown nodded, "Okay, lead on."

As he continued to follow the former Seeker, he made the comment. "Hopefully isn't too long. All this walking is making me start to miss my vehical mode." What he wouldn't give for being able to grind his tires against the ground at high speed again.

Oh yes, there was definitely something invigorating about taking the lead for once! While Scarecrow was technically directing the route of this trip, Kaiji was the one who knew the Institute better. The only disappointing part was that as far as he knew, he really had nothing to gain from this.

That was, unless the staff of Landel's was keeping the booze in the cooler with the bodies of mythical creatures or whatever. Would that be messed up beyond belief or pleasantly surprising? Maybe a bit of both.

Speaking of which, it probably would have been wise to ask Scarecrow where exactly they were going. With any luck he'd be able to give a name or at least a description.

He could ask when things got more complicated than a few hallways.

Scarecrow clicked his light on and off absentmindedly as he followed Kaiji through the hall, trying to take in the atmosphere. This place was a lot less inviting at night. It was strange to see people out and about, free from their nurses and restrictions. He kept his hand along the wall as they walked, trying not to have another nasty fall. If he was going to keep up with Kaiji's pace, he'd need his legs in working order.

Speaking of pace, where were they going? Oh yeah, the third floor! he thought. There must be some way up there.

Casting a wary eye at the other patients -- he still hadn't seen anyone he recognized from their world, and no one had recognized him -- Suzaku all but ran down the hallway to its southern counterpart. He couldn't take this trapped, lost feeling anymore, and he wished he could just strike out on his own and try to find something useful. But he needed Lelouch, and the other boy wasn't going to get very far tonight. He'd have to settle for sitting around and having another uncomfortable conversation.

Tony didn't pause as he headed out of the dorm block, long strides hurrying him along toward the next branch of the hall. There were a few people already out, though it was hard to judge the general volume by that section. He marked it off as a late start, and quickened his pace.

If he remembered the map correctly, Clayface was in Hall 1-A, and had to make a choice - left or right? No reason not to take the shortest route, and he was curious what the outside looked like, so he turned to leave to the soccer field, still following the wall on his left.
