Taura didn't let heavy thoughts drag her footsteps down. She was around the corner and down into the main hall in two long strides.

As he raced down the hallway, just barely keeping himself from flat-out running, all Niikura could think about was what would happen if Shiina turned out to be one of those few that Landel had been talking about. Would he have to kill her? No, he could never do that. He'd never be able to, not without risking his sanity. He couldn't...

So how was he going to get out of this mess? Azuma was the medical genius, the one who figured everything out, but he hadn't really come into his own until after they'd unified for the first time. So there was no relying on his usual method: the experience of his fellows.

This really sucked.
