Nightshift 60: West Wing, South Hall 1-B

[from here]

Taura pondered the announcement she'd just heard as she jogged down another empty hallway. Who was she? Jill? Who he'd tortured himself, though that could have been an act on her part as well? Whose side had she been on? And what could have happened to her that would be permanent?

Death was usually pretty permanent, but even that had its exceptions around here. Taura didn't have to like it to know it was true; what had General Aguilar done that could change that? And why was Doctor Landel so angry?

It was an uneasy thought to stomach; revenge drove people like nothing else did, and being one of the people in between was a hell of a way to go.

Niikura paused very briefly as he passed by the female blocks, wondering if he should just run in anyway and find Shiina before she got anywhere. He'd already promised to meet her in the main hallway just outside, but there he was, misplaced chivalry rearing its head, wondering if he could renege on this one. It was a small one, Hazama's voice argued. (Really, it was his own, but he was calling it Hazama's just so he could pretend that he dissented.) He needed to protect her and make sure that she didn't get hurt. It was his responsibility after all.

Ah, but he'd promised, and she'd get mad if he showed up. He had to show that he trusted her to be able to take care of herself to some extent. With a shake of his head, Niikura moved on, mentally berating himself for even thinking about the possibility.
