Ema stepped into the room when Lana beckoned her in, looking around until she found their instructor for the night. The man--Renji--looked like someone who knew how to defend himself; she couldn't help but feel like meeting him under different circumstances (i.e., in a fight) was something she'd want to avoid. It was a good thing he was there to help, at any rate. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Renji."

When Lana brought up weapons, Ema's stomach sank a little. She was armed last night, although she didn't actually use it when the monster attacked. Besides that, Mr. Javert's handaxe was no longer in her possession. Perhaps it was just as well. Ema wasn't sure she'd have the heart to actually wield it. "I have a small garden shovel," she offered, pulling it out of her bag to demonstrate. "I figured that was better than hitting rats with my flashlight." After a bit of hesitation--honestly, Ema didn't want to go anywhere--she added, "But we can get something after we're done if you think we should." What Ema wanted and what she needed to do were entirely different things. It was like Zero said. She needed to move forward.

That decided, Ema set her stuff down so that they could begin. She set her flashlight onto the other bed to help eliminate more of the shadows.
