Night 52: Janitor's Closet

[itneverwas]

[From here]What Xemnas encountered upon entering the small, narrow room cluttered with many items was a distinct lack of any organization. In the mess, they were bearing no sense of apparent logic in the way they were stored. The Nobody carefully squeezed through the room to get a better look at its contents, keeping an eye upon the narrow shelving

Roxas didn't know what a janitor actually was, but once he walked through the open door into the cramped closet, he imagined this was the kind of things a janitor would have. Mops, brooms, and bottles of cleaning supplies lined the shelves and leaned against them, shrinking the room even more with the magnitude of items stocked within. When he bumped against one of the shelves, it wobbled unsteadily.

With all the "DO NOT DRINK THIS" signs on the bottles under skulls and crossbones and the unsteady shelves, Roxas wasn't really feeling good things about this janitor guy.

Although he was too busy running after Scott and Roxas to say anything, a look of bitter anger crossed over Matthew’s face at Scott’s explanation of the Special Counseling sessions. This type of brainwashing…it really did remind him of the type of stuff that went on in asylums for political prisoners. So he was right in suspecting that there was something not right with the nurses here.

And then, as they reached the janitors closet, he thought about Scott’s next comment, and literally froze in his spot. “Wait…you’re saying it’s possible for the doctors to give the patients their powers back?!” If what Scott said was true …than that might mean that his connection to Canada still existed, but they had just somehow blocked it off.

Just like the first time Scott had been up here, someone else had beaten them up here. Unlike last time, whoever had beaten them had been good enough to leave the door open. No embarrassing jump kicks delivered to unlocked doors, then, Scott thought with a quiet sigh of relief. He wasn't sure what Other Matt thought was so great about giving powers back to patients if they were just going to be brainwashed into being total dicks, but whatever, more power to him, he thought as he piled into the room with the others.

Roxas's question confirmed that The World That Never Was was a little more than a hop-skip-and-a-jump away from Canada. If they didn't have batteries there, Scott was striking it off his list of potential vacation spots right away. He looked around while Other Matt explained, annoyed by the flickering light from outside making it hard to keep his eyes in one spot for long. It was also making him swear he could see a fourth presence sneaking up behind them, but that was just his paranoia acting up again, no doubt; he paid
