Nightshift 49: Homeworld - Skyscraper (Tokyo, Japan)

[From here.]It was a sad thing to know that Sync had experienced more in the four years he lived than most people did in their entire lifetime. He'd long since been desensitized to the idea of death, and anything associated with it was often met with a scoff or sneer ( Read more... )

While Rolo had previously been concerned with the well-being of his flashlight, his latest failure made him rethink that. The boy left the janitor's closet with the intent of bashing each and every lock in this hallway until he finally found a damn doctor's office. His brother gave him a mission and he was not going to -

The next thing Rolo knew, the rush of vertigo returned as soon as he stepped through the door of the Janitor's closet and suddenly, there was no floor. It took Rolo a little too late to realize this, but even if he tried to stop walking, he had already taken a step off the slim concrete strip that separated him from the distance below.

It was funny how it took him a little to realize that he was falling, the howl of wind wrapping around him and a sea of gray, extremely hard concrete stretching out below him and getting rapidly bigger.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"

The last of the trio had barely registered the closet and its features, though she caught the displeased noise from one of her companions. Rolo appeared highly put off by their surroundings. Why this was the case remained questionable. If the boy didn't want to be there, why did he open the door in the first place? People sometimes...

Ange tossed her hair and made to follow. Perhaps if she outright asked where they planned to be, she could 'hint' a direction instead of standing idly by. And being clueless. It was okay at the beginning of the night, but now it had developed into a rather ridiculous situation.

To what extent would soon be revealed. She walked through the threshold, her lips parting to inquire on motives. Instead, something beneath her gave way, and the young woman gasped, finding herself without floor and ceiling. As if she was floating--

No. Falling? With sky above and lights below, Ange understood. Knew this sensation, this setting. Though all logic and instinct pointed toward panic like the others, she felt the ( ... )

It took a moment for Sync to orient himself, to gain some semblance of control in order to figure out what exactly was going on. The God-General gritted his teeth, mind racing through any possible explanations as to why they were where they were. This wasn't the first time the institute performed the impossible, so maybe this was just another way to mess with its 'patients', and with the way Spike was shrieking uncontrollably it seemed to be working ( ... )

The hows and whys of this situation was completely lost on Rolo's mind, as he was too busy coping with the fact that he was plummeting to his death (again). It was only when he heard a voice through the howl of the wind, urging them to stay together. Along with the voice came arms that were grabbing his, both Greta and Stephen's to Rolo's surprise ( ... )
