Nightshift 26: M31-40 Hallway

[face-of-chaos.livejournal.com]

[From Here]

He’d walked past the bathroom Usopp had introduced him to on the first night, before heading directly towards the last hallway in this particular block. It was rather fortunate that he was placed so close to his ally’s location, and he found it more of just a matter of playing a waiting game as he silently marched down the hallway.

Passing by the other rooms without too much notice, Yuber’s movements came to a stop just after halfway down the corridor as he came across M33. It took a little rearranging, but the knight managed to hold the two blades and the torch in one hand, before he neatly folded his arms across his chest. He didn’t bother with his usual tactic of simply entering into the room, but instead found himself comfortably leaning with his back up against the wall while he waited for Usopp to emerge.

The knight was only hoping that he wouldn’t be kept waiting for too long.

From M35 (http://community.livejournal.com/damned/194329.html?view=13735705#t13735705).

Reinforce dashed up the hall, the need to aid Kyon's friend outweighing what she considered the small chance of the nightshift denzines being bright enough to mount an ambush for arriving reinforcements. It had been her experience that they were animals in mind as well as (approximate) form, adept at stalking perhaps but not at deeper tactics.

"Save your energy for healing," Reinforce instructed Raine as they ran. "I'll attack using half my magic, and if that isn't enough to defeat the enemy I'll use the other half to cover your retreat with his friend."

Though, she left unsaid, if Kyon's friend was in the same civilian mold as Tamaki and his friends anything powerful enough that she couldn't gain the advantage on even with a weapon and her full compliment of stored magical power would likely have killed him already...

"I doubt either of them is a fighter," Raine replied. "It might be something reasonably easy to defeat--if I'm right about that, I'll fight with you. If it's not something we can take down quickly, then we'll see." If Kyon's friend was in obviously bad shape... while she didn't like the idea of leaving Reinforce alone, the woman was an impressive fighter and could take care of herself. Making sure a defenseless newcomer was all right had priority.
