Nightshift 35: West Wing, South Hall 2-B
[from here]
Considering Sai's generous offer, Vlad was in no hurry to rush his way down the dark corridor, which sounded empty enough for now. That didn't mean there was nothing waiting in the darkness, of course, just that there probably weren't any patients currently engaged. Vlad had been a fan of letting others go before him since soon after his arrival, but just one other companion wasn't nearly enough barrier space between himself and the creatures in here for his tastes. Still, he was armed enough even as Masters, and the young man had practically volunteered himself.
Well, practically.
Following Sai's lead, he gestured down the hallway. "Let's work down as far as we can, then start to make our way back?" After all, if there were monsters along the way, being timid wouldn't mean they vanished, just that they were reached more slowly... or that Vlad and Sai were ambushed while exploring.
