Nightshift 60: F11-F20 Hallway

[Inside F16]

Now that Ilia had left, there was plenty of room to pace, and Lana took it. It would help keep her muscles loose, too. Ilia had been a help, but the most important point was getting the basics to Ema -- including the part about running away being the best thing to do if she couldn't help. She would hold onto that guilt; Lana knew her sister, and she could admit she would (and had) done the same herself.

But neither of them could let it freeze them up in the future. They had to try, that was the key to the whole thing. Two men were dead; one mourned, one not, and so were many others. This place ground through people, and Lana didn't intend to let their names be the next up.

"Maybe it'll make more sense once we get where we're going," Rapunzel offered. It really was the only idea that was coming to mind right now. She didn't know enough about the radio people (whoever they were) to know if the traitors were connected to them or not, and it was almost impossible to tell just how many patient sympathizers existed in the military's ranks. She didn't know what kind of information was on the disc either, but it was the only thing they had right now that gave them the slightest chance of pulling back part of the military's veil of secrecy.

"I guess we should just get moving and find out," she said after a moment of unsure silence, gathering up her hair in her arms and gesturing for Tsubaki to follow her.
