Night 73: Patient Library

[redcladidealist]

[From here.]

The library was quiet and dark when Lloyd entered, barring the light from their flashlights. Lloyd let the light from his flashlight play across the books, the floor, even the ceiling for good measure. He hadn't forgotten the monster that had seemed to slither out of the darkness just a couple of nights ago.

"You guys see anything?" He kept his voice soft, barely above a whisper. If there was something in here, he didn't want to attract its attention. Not that they'd be able to avoid it once they opened that secret door, but hopefully they'd be able to get out before anything blocked their path.

The secret door slid open as Castiel pulled the switch, and Kratos hesitated for just a second to draw his sword before advancing on the entrance. Unlike previous nights, it didn't seem like there was anything waiting to "greet" them, but one could never be sure, and he certainly didn't want to make the mistake of being unprepared to react to any unpleasant surprises.

He looked at Lloyd. "Stay close."
