Renji entered the Sun Room cautiously, pausing to listen. He didn't hear anything. But of course he didn't hear anything. If there was someone waiting in the Sun Room, they never did show themselves until it was too late to run. Just like everything else in this fucking place.

He shifted his grip slightly on the mop handle and moved inside, heading toward the door to the cafeteria. He trusted Daemon to have his back.

Just because the area was quiet now didn't mean it wouldn't soon be otherwise. Though it wasn't going to be exploding into anything so grand as his previous "Dance Competition" masterpiece!

And also... he'd run into a little snag.

"Ahhhhhh!!!" a shriek cut through the dark only moments before Baka, dressed only as a patient would be, grey, smiling scrubs and all, came barreling for the two who had just entered. "Don't let it eat meeeeee!"

A sliver of moonlight filtered through the clear windows overlooking the Sun Room. Barnaby brought his flashlight around in attempt to get his bearings, but a sharp yell diverted his attention toward the railing overhead.

Suddenly, he caught sight of someone plummeting into the Sun Room. There was no time to think about who or why, though. Barnaby instinctively sprung into action, dropping his flashlight as he ignited his Hundred Power and rushed ahead. The victim glowed with the tell-tale blue of a NEXT, serving as a clear homing signal in the darkness.

Although he didn't move as quickly as he was used to, it was fast enough. As soon as Barnaby reached out with his strong arms, he was met by the warm, steady weight of the victim. Securely clutching the man, Barnaby's knees bent into a half crouch to accommodate for the sudden force and his own weakened strength.

He looked down into the newcomer's face, about to ask if he was all right, when he was met by an unexpected sight. Even if he'd covered his face like he was prone to do while falling, Barnaby would recognize that ridiculous beard from anywhere. His eyebrows shot up toward his bangs, eyes widening in shock.

"Kotetsu!"

The room seemed silent enough, for the moment - but it was hard to see far even with the flashlights, and Hakkai was worried about disturbing anything that might be lurking farther in. He stepped just to the side of the door, keeping the beam of light close to his feet, and glanced back and Gren.

"So far, so good."
