Night 74: Sun Room

[freewill]

[From here.]

The expansive room was as dark and as quiet as last night, but that didn't do anything to set Castiel at ease. He took a moment to tilt his head upward, trying to see if he could make out even the slightest sign of the third floor through the skylight. But somehow, even through sun streamed through that window every day, there was no way to make out anything above the second floor.

Some kind of illusion, maybe? It was bizarre, either way.

Castiel refocused his attention, shifting to step toward the library doors. They couldn't waste too much time here and risk getting attacked.

Just as Lloyd hadn't admitted to being worried, he refused to admit that he was relieved when Kratos showed up. Instead, he masked the feeling with stifled frustration. Where have you been? he wanted to ask. Why didn't you come out of your room all day? But the moment they stepped into the Sun Room he snapped his mouth shut. The memory of being attacked here by Ed was still too close and too clear. While there hadn't been anyone or anything else here the night before, he didn't want to draw anything's attention if there was.

...not that they didn't stand out like beacons with their flashlights and the lantern on. Lloyd tried to shake off the sense of unease that accompanied that thought. Casting a quick look around, he headed for the library door.

Oblivious to his frustration, Kratos led the way, giving the room his own cursory examination before stepping into the next room.

The Sun Room appeared to be completely empty.

Scar moved quickly, checking back to make sure that Lust was still close. There was always the chance that something waited out of sight

Korra picked up the pace as soon as she was in the Sun Room. She could feel the rush in her chi from the moon through the glass ceiling. Why couldn't he take the fight outside? She was going stir crazy in this stupid building.

Almost to the other side, though. Then they could get upstairs and work on ending this.

As they entered the Sun Room, Sora spotted a few other groups, including Tsubaki and Korra. While it would have been nice to run over and say hi, he knew now wasn't the right time for that, not when there was a chance that they'd get ambushed here.

Instead, Sora turned back to Link and nodded, gesturing toward the library. They could make a break for it...

One or two people with small handguns would never be able to functionally clear this room, given its size and layout and the arrangement of the furnishings, but L did what he could. It appeared to be quiet again. With another brief nod to Lana, he moved towards the library door.
