Nightshift 40: 2nd Floor East Wing Nurse Residential Hall

May 02, 2009 04:19

[From here]The hallway was empty when Rangiku pushed the door open, the silence seeming particularly eerie. There was no information about this particular area, or at least, nothing that she'd ever seen, aside from the fact that it existed. She peered around in the gloom, picking out numerous doorways leading to unknown rooms. It looked as though ( Read more... )

Gin took note of the names Rangiku mentioned, though his expression went unchanged. He followed her into the empty hallway, flashlight constantly moving, eyes watching for the smallest sign that the hall might contain some threat. He hadn't been down this way before and it was interesting to note that there were so many doors, so close together. There were a few places he recalled seeing something similar; their own dorm rooms and the rooms set aside for experimentation. While it was hard to be sure, there was a good chance the rooms here were for one or the other.

"Seems t'be a lot of rooms we ain't checked yet, in spite of all those maps floatin' around," he commented, trying the handle of another. "They seem kinda small though. Think they'd give if we jus' gave 'em a good hit?" The experimentation rooms didn't, but the dormitory rooms went unlocked. Chances were fairly difficult to guess.

Rangiku nodded in agreement, quickly checking another of the doorways before moving on to the next. There were a lot of them, all very similar, so she wasn't holding out much hope but she'd hate to have to come back because they'd missed just one of them. It was frustrating enough as it was to be doing this. She frowned thoughtfully for a moment and then shrugged. "I suppose they might. They do look sort of like the doors to the patient rooms. I just hope that if one of them is opened, it doesn't turn out to be another bedroom or something." What a waste of time that would make everything.

It didn't seem likely that the rooms would be so simple as a bedroom, but then again, who could say? The night had been quiet thus far and while he knew very well how unlikely it was to stay that way, his curiosity had the better of him. While Rangiku was busy trying doors, he gave the one nearest him a sharp kick, the sound echoing in the empty hallway.

Nothing. He tried again. It wiggled, but barely. These weren't the same as the doors he'd broken into so easily before. Sturdier maybe? On one hand, it was a relief; whatever was behind them was likely of importance, but on the other, it meant that if the key didn't work, it was another waste of time.

"Either I'm gettin' soft or these ain't budgin'," Gin commented, glancing up to see Rangiku's progress.

A door opened down the hall, creaking back on rusty hinges. From the door came a rush of wind and with it the childish laughter of a slyph. The little creature kept invisible as she danced down the hall, circling once around Gin and Rangiku, giggling and whispering unintelligible phrases to them. But she didn't stay long, oh no, what came next was scary, even to her. Her laughter disappeared down the hall and died out near the entrance as she slipped under the cracks and through the keyhole into the main hall. She, too, wanted to escape what would come next ( ... )
