Night 57: Main Hallway, 1-Center

Jul 14, 2011 17:58

[from here]From here, Vino could go several ways. The frequented Sun Room was the most obvious option, though he could also choose to either go into one of the side doors or continue onward down the hall. If he were an architect, Vino thought, where would he put a radio broadcast room in an insane asylum ( Read more... )

As unsettling as it was to think about anyone who might have been going toward the medical wing tonight, though, Claude knew they couldn't let themselves get distracted. It was possible they were walking into a trap of their own, which meant they needed to remain on guard.

Once they approached the door leading into the Sun Room, Claude slowed his pace and neared the door. He knew this area attracted a lot of fights -- he'd been caught in his fair share of them here, after all. Yet it seemed unusually peaceful, and one look inside didn't show anything amiss.

"Hey, we might actually be in luck this time," he whispered to his friends. "I'm not seeing anything dangerous. If we make it quick, we might get through." Still, they needed to stay serious about this. Appearances could be deceiving.

"But we still need to keep a tight formation," Claude added as he turned to look at his friends. "The last thing we want to do is get separated during an ambush or something."

It seemed that in regards to the drug trial, Claude and Anise's thoughts ran similar to his own. They all knew how dangerous it sounded and yet they could relate to and understand why some of their fellow patients would go for it anyway. Guy was even more grateful for the sword Okita had gotten for him than ever now. He was going to have to thank his roommate again when they spoke tomorrow ( ... )

It didn't sound like any of them were about to blame the people who were going to take advantage of Aguilar's offer... probably because what they were doing wasn't any better. Anise already felt like she had to be an idiot to follow a path that Landel laid out for them. But what other choice did she have, if she wanted to get closer to an escape?

Anise was a little surprised that Claude didn't see or hear anything in the Sun Room, but she knew she couldn't take that to mean it was totally safe. "Of course!" she replied to both her friends' warnings. Maybe they were just early, and whatever was in there hadn't been stirred up yet. They definitely couldn't let their guards down so easily.

In any case, they couldn't waste time. The sooner they got to their destination, the more time they'd have to see what they could find.

"Man, we've had some bad luck lately," Guy said with a sigh once he was sure that his two companions had escaped that strange man safely. First last night when that swordsman had attacked them so fiercely, and now some weird setup where they were expected to dance? What was this all about?

It seemed like they were pulling out all the stops to prevent them from getting to the basement. Maybe Aguilar really didn't want them to see what was hidden there. That only made Guy more eager to make it there, though.

"So, to the courtyard then?" They really couldn't waste any time now that they'd been set back like this. "We might be able to make it faster if we go over the wall in the greenhouse yard." He hadn't used that path very often himself, but it might be worth a shot. The path that wasn't as well known might not be guarded as fiercely.

Anise let out a heavy sigh once the doors closed behind them. It didn't look like that weirdo was chasing after them, thankfully. Seriously, though, what was that!? She'd never seen anything like it before.

It was too bad, in a way. A dance contest actually could have been really fun... if it was anywhere but here. If Anise was going to show off her dancing, it was going to be somewhere safe, and when they weren't in a hurry to get somewhere else. At Landel's, she couldn't trust that it wasn't a trap. Besides, they had to reach that door before they ran out of time! There just wasn't time for playing around.

"Well, at least no one got hurt," she offered, trying to look on the bright side even if she looked a little exasperated herself. "The greenhouse, though? I've never tried that way before. I think it's worth a shot!" Since it was a less-traveled route, maybe there would be less enemies on the way! It'd be nice if there was no one jabbing swords at them this time, at the very least.

While Guy and Anise were mostly a little irritated, Claude found himself pretty annoyed that they'd run into that. Like hell they'd participate in some dance contest because a guy wearing a dress told them so. He bet the man would have asked them to put down their weapons for awhile, too. As if!

"What do they think we are, stupid?" he huffed. "This isn't some game." Maybe it was childish to let it get to him, but Claude didn't like the feeling that their captors were just toying with them for their own enjoyment. People he cared about had died the last time they went to that damn basement. Just what was the military trying to pull, throwing something like that at them right now?

If it had been another time and another place, he might have gone along with it, but...they had too much riding on what they were doing tonight. They couldn't get bogged down by stupid things like that ( ... )
