Night 48: Stairwell by Nurse's Station 1-B

[from here]Forte continued to the stairwell, not expecting any surprises yet - although admittedly he had used the other one before, making this the first new room on their excursion. But as he approached the stairs, the intercom crackled to life again. He held up a hand to stop Beelzemon, hoping there would be some clue to how long he'd been out

Slag. Terry barely made it into the corridor before he heard someone else in the stairwell. Before he could warn Kurt, however, the intercom suddenly came to life. At least it wasn't the announcement signaling morning, but that didn't exactly mean Terry was happy about the content. Next-Wave, I.R.I.S., the war? Though he'd promised answers, Landel wasn't exactly forth coming. So was it some other part in their game, or something else?

"Next time, one of us brings one of the radios." Terry could have kicked himself for not thinking about it before then, but he wasn't going back for it now. The other person in the corridor had started moving again, and that was all the more reason for Kurt and Terry to do the same. Without any obvious sounds of a fight, Terry reached down to grab the bottom end of the handtruck. "It'll be easier this way. Just try and move fast without running me over, all right?"

Kurt didn't need warning. The moment he heard someone in the stairwell, he ducked down behind the cart and waited until the announcement was over to emerge. It was dark, sure, but in his experience small, tight spaces had a tendency to make people even jumpier than usual. He was trying to parse the announcement when Terry suggested they bring a radio with them next time.

"Yeah, I can find some way to attach it to my belt," he said, lifting the end of the cart. This would have been easier if Kurt had just teleported them up, but the trip across the building probably would've been too dangerous. He'd be so happy when he saw more places.

Grunting a little, he lifted his end of the cart and followed Terry's lead up the stairwell. He was the eyes of the trip.

Oh man I'm sorry for my complete and utter FAIL D8

"Huh?" Beelzemon had almost walked straight into Forte at the sudden stop. Was there something to fight here?

...Nope, just the intercom being crazy again. "You got it." He followed Forte up the stairs, a little excited. He'd never been here. Maybe there was something good, or at least good to fight around on the second floor.

It's fine, I've been busy with school and apps anyway
