NIGHTSHIFT 27: F-BLOCK HALLWAY

[From here]

Ami stepped out into the wider corridor. Again, silence. It was disconcerting. Glancing around, Ami couldn't see anything threatening. Yet. She forced her fear back, determined not to let its icy claws grip her.

She walked across the hallway and into the women's bathroom.

The two girls seemed friendly and nice; Naruto thought himself lucky, since there were all sorts of weird characters in Landel's, patients alike. Usagi showed a moment later, which relieved him. He smiled back and lifted a hand in greeting, and smirked at Ami's teasing her. He could tell that they were close friends.

"All right! That's all of us, right," he exclaimed confidently and placed his hands on his hips. Naruto knew from past experience that sometimes the hardest part of getting anything done at night was mobilizing the team. He listened to Ami speak, and responded: "Yeah, the kitchen's a good idea. I lost the only real weapon I had, so I'm in the same boat as you guys. We probably won't be the only ones there, because of that message. And it is weird. We should be extra careful."

"Maybe it's a trick and there's something good down there. More likely it's a trap. Man, I'm getting sick of his head games..." Naruto complained and checked on the utensils he had been hoarding at meals, adjusting them at his waistband. He held his flashlight, clicked off, at the ready like a weapon and glanced down the hallway with a cocky grin.

"No use letting it get to us, though. Shall we?"

As Usagi joined the group, MOMO couldn't help but break into a relieved smile. She, like most of the others she had been able to meet that day, didn't seem to be hurt too badly. She was indeed grateful for that.

Once Ami and Naruto went on to explain about the kitchen, however, her smile faded slightly and she gave a short nod. "Ahh, I see." It really did make sense; running around without a weapon was dangerous. And the kitchen did sound promising, at least in regards to finding something that could be used as a weapon. "I don't really have a weapon either, so I think that is a good idea. But we should still watch our backs, just in case."

The Prototype paused long enough to tuck her journal beneath her waistband (it was probably best to leave at least one hand free, after all) then nodded once more. "I'm ready whenever the rest of you are."

"Okay!" Usagi exclaimed, punching her hand in the air. The talking had allowed her to catch her breath, she hoped she wouldn't be so sluggish all night. mIt wouldn't be fair to slow everyone down...

"Upstairs right?" she asked, trying to remember what little of the second floor she explored and what she'd heard from other people. Without waiting for confirmation she started leading the little group down the hallway.

Ami sighed as Usagi took off, knowing that Usagi's sense of direction was a little....skewed. She ran after her to give her the map of Landel's she had acquired.

So MOMO didn't have a weapon, either. Naruto smirked around an uneasy feeling as he gave the group another once-over. Hopefully they wouldn't run into anything too threatening...

Usagi took off ahead of them, citing the upstairs, which sent an instant chill down his spine. That thing was up there - but there was little chance to protest. Naruto glanced at MOMO and nodded before following suit.
