Day 20, Nightshift: F1-F10 Block Corridor
Nightshift always seemed to come far too quickly for Inara's tastes. She regretted not having the chance to talk more with Mal and the others and could only hope that they had some inkling of what they would be facing. Truth be told, the Companion wasn't entirely certain that she truly knew the extent of the horrors that took place during Nightshift.
As the Head Doctor made his mocking announcement, the dark-haired woman busied her with gathering together the most essential of supplies. A flashlight and some spare batteries would be obvious and further inspection revealed little that could be of substantial use to her. Inara would hardly want to be over-burdened if she had to run from anything this time. She'd been fortunate during her last encounter to have Lust around, but, until she could re-group with Mal and the others, she was alone and would have to make due. Of course, there had been no official decree from the Captain declaring a meeting; Inara simply assumed that they would try to find one another for safety's sake.
Besides, though it was somewhat difficult to admit, she was worried about him.
Flashlight in hand, Inara flipped the switch and made her way cautiously out into the hallway, careful to check both directions before stepping fully out of the room.

Kaylee looked evenly at him, still a mite wary...but a bit more understanding. Similar experiences? He seemed a little too old (and a little too mentally stable) to have been a 'student' at that awful Academy that the Alliance sent River to...but he could have been a prototype. Or the Alliance could have used him in other ways.
"I'm Kaylee," she said after Inara had introduced herself. "I'll go, too. River's probably with Simon, and I'd like to find him."

"We should keep moving," she said and then turned to walk down the hallway. Made no sense to stick to one spot and even if finding River was important Zoe really wanted to find Mal. There was no telling what sort of trouble the man could get himself into when he was alone. At least River wasn't in the habit of doing stupid things (crazy things, sure, but not stupid), where as Zoe couldn't say the same for the Capitan.
Of course, that was one of the reasons Zoe felt so loyal to him. Stupid heroics where awfully endearing at times.

"His name's Hans Davis," Fox really hoped he'd gotten that name correct. He'd feel very foolish if he'd mistaken the fake name of his closest, and only, friend.
