Night 56: Main Hallway, 1-West

[poorexample]

[From here.]He had reached the meeting point in less than a few minutes and there was still not another patient to be seen. Castiel paused, standing near the wall as he moved his flashlight up and down the corridor. There was nothing, not the sound of a shadow slipping through the dark; not the whisper of something less than human

The moment that they moved into the main hall, Zack took a moment to search for any sign of Tifa. She would most likely be coming down this way unless she decided to go out onto the field, so it was worth keeping an eye out. He didn't see her anywhere, though, which meant they were going to have to move closer to the female block.

Of course, the reason that Zack knew that area so well was because he'd come this way with Cloud once before, but it had been prior to his memory loss and they'd been looking for Aerith, not Tifa. Even though they'd searched all of the rooms in the block, they hadn't found her -- and that had been that.

Except for that one time when he'd seen her briefly after that. He almost forgot it had happened because they'd only exchanged a few words and he hadn't seen her again afterward. The whole thing was kind of bizarre, he had to admit -- at least Cloud had stuck around after coming back.

He just hoped that Aerith was all right, and that his silence wasn't standing out to Cloud.

Zack had touched on something that Cloud was thinking about also as they moved on down the hall, that Tifa may have already gone off somewhere else. He couldn't really say where, though, not having had the chance to ask her in Doyleton or on the bus ride back what she had planned for the coming night

It seemed that Zack had gotten caught up in his thoughts for a little too long, seeing how Cloud had noticed. He could have passed it off as focusing on the task at hand, but it wasn't as if they were doing anything that dangerous at the moment. Cloud probably would have accepted that kind of answer nonetheless, but that was exactly why Zack didn't feel comfortable giving it. He couldn't lie to his best friend
