Nightshift 44: F-A Block Hallway
[From here]Hime peered out into the hallway. It was mostly empty; it seemed she was one of the first to come out of their cells. While this presented the problem of wandering alone without the cover of the herd, this also gave her a chance to scout out the population as they left their rooms. While Hime had confidence in her fighting abilities, she

The darkness didn't do much to slow Anise down. She'd gone nearly a week without a flashlight before, after all. Anise knew her way through this block.
Sync had picked a spot close to Anise and Dahlia's rooms for a meeting point. If it had been anyone else, Anise would have guessed it was because it was convenient for the two girls, but this was Sync. He wouldn't choose the hall by the F-Block if he didn't think he could get there plenty quick himself. He probably expected that he would arrive before Anise would get a chance to tell Dahlia anything.
He would probably be right to think that too, but if there was even just a tiny chance of meeting Dahlia first and leading her away before Sync showed up, Anise had to go for it.

Nothing here either. Were they even trying now? This wouldn't even scare Feenie and she knew for a fact that the P on his old sweater didn't stand for "Phoenix." You know... if the last two nights weren't that Landel Scumbag's plans, the only thing he had up his sleeve was scary dolls and flickering lights. Ha! Tonight should be a cakewalk, then!
The only thing echoing in the hall so far was the click of her slippers on the floor. If she wanted it to stay that way, she better hurry up.

Well, this was the same old hall, wasn't it? Alkaid didn't even need to turn on her flashlight for this stuff! All she needed to do was run her hand along the wall. Which - was kind of gross, all things considered. The walls here were kind of off, but she had to keep conservation in mind!
She was alone in the hallway right now, which meant she'd been able to get a good headstart on the nightly rush. Now all she had to do was take a turn and she'd end up in the next hall, on her merry way to F12.
If this 'reiatsu' thing ended up being a prank or something, Alkaid was going to murder someone. With acid. In the eye. It wasn't usually her style, but Badou was the kinda guy who knew how to make do, and something about him was sort of working in the back of her head. Stuck with ya, that guy. ...Even though he was a stupid idiot who made stupid excuses for doing stupid things.
But why was she thinking about him? She had better things to do...

Okay, Yukari's room was F29, so Junpei was almost there. What a relief! He made it the whole way, passing people, without thinking about how delicious their flesh was and how much their blood would quench his thirst. Or how much more enticing the red-headed chick that was in the hall's flesh was than her boobs.
Something was seriously wrong with him when he found his eyes moving to stare at easy to bite limbs instead of the ginormous melons that chick had.

People darted in and out of the blocks; women heading out, men heading in. Sexual segregation, whether in the bedrooms or the showers, didn't make much sense. Then again, Taura wasn't sure she'd run across a social etiquette rule that made sense. Humans balanced illogical against irrationality and tied it into a coherent whole with arbitrary gestures.
Somehow the whole system worked. Except when it didn't, which was what mercenaries were for.
