Night 71: West Wing, South Hall 1-A
[From here.]
The first door he passed was one that led to another block of patient rooms. The knob turned easily, though, and looked far too new. He tested its strength, but it refused to give. It wouldn't be something he could break off without using his mana to enhance his strength, and he didn't want to drain himself on something like that. No, there had to be easier things he could get the metal he needed from. The second door he passed was locked, the metal shiny enough to glint back at him when he shined his flashlight at it. Another battle he didn't want to fight.
The next hall was just up ahead. Which way did he want to go? He remembered seeing at least four doors with rusty locks and handles when he'd searched with Tsurugi the night before. He might be able to break those off without too much effort, but that was a fair ways to go when there were people waiting for him. On the other hand, if he tried to search places he hadn't been before during the night, who knew if he'd find what he needed?
No, I better go with what I know I can find.
Decision made, he continued on into the main hall beyond.

no subject
Nothing here either. He almost wanted to see one of those hunting things he heard about, just so this place wouldn't feel so empty. A moment later he abandoned that thought. When given a choice between loneliness and running from danger, always go with the first option. Maybe another place then. Last night he had found someone out in the big hallway, so there was a chance that he would see someone there again.
