Locke had been enjoying the ride back, his eyes closed as he lounged in the seat he'd managed to snag alone, he only bothered to open them to see the commotion with the other bus. Once he knew there was going to be a pause, he'd relaxed again....until that charge in the air had hit. It made the hair on the back of his neck stand on-end...something wasn't right.
Then there was the nurse...
Being chased down the hall by whatever that creature had been upstairs was one thing...this was something entirely different. Nothing he had seen since arriving here or before had ever been as horrific and bloody as that. It made him freeze in fear for longer than he would have liked to admit.
His brain reminded him he'd seen Tolten seated in the back when he'd gotten on and a surge of protectiveness pushed him out of his frozen state and made him bolt for the back of the bus. He kneeled down beside his friend with a hand on Tolten's arm while Locke's eyes darted from the king in concern to the monster before them. "We have to get out of here. Make a run for it." Perhaps if there was an exit at the back of this thing...
