Nightshift 34: Main Hallway, 1-West

[from here]

The shinigami padded silently down the hallway, keeping to the left-side wall and her hand upon her sword's hilt. Her eyes scanned the area surorunding her as she continued on to the next hallway, especially the nurses' stations as she neared them. This would be a horrible time for her to get attacked by a nurse or two. Thankfully, the halls were empty, btu she didn't drop her guard. She knew better.

Almost there.

Brooklyn didn’t seem all that concerned over being out of his room at night. And it didn’t seem as though the man was looking for someone to protect him either. Meaning that he was comfortable being out here by himself.

L studied the blades the man was carrying and allowed himself to visibly relax a little. If Brooklyn was any threat to L or had felt that he was untrustworthy, he would have not shown them to him. And the fact that he was carrying them meant that he knew how to use them. “I am sure you will.” L said turning towards the rest of the main hall, “This way.”

This way? Brooklyn was taken back. The man (what was his name again? Ryu? Something that started with an R...) just expected him to follow without argument? It wasn't as though he had anything better to be doing, and he had been looking for someone to go places with, but he hadn't meant to be ordered around.

Then again, that seemed to be genuinely how the man acted all the time - that bland attitude and speaking as though everything he said was a given. Frowning, the gargoyle decided to do as asked. "Right... And where are we going, exactly?"

L couldn’t help but internally curse when Brooklyn had decided to ask where they were going. The question was a fair enough though, and the man couldn’t be faulted for wanting to know. It was just the fact that L had once again gotten in too much of a hurry and forgot an important detail.

“The doctor’s offices.” L answered as he began to walk in that direction. “Have you had any prior experience with them?”

"A little..." The last time, and the first time, he'd visited any of the doctor's offices it had been with Cloud. They'd found eyeballs in the doctor's desk drawer. Not the most pleasant of experiences. "They've got some real crazies here. Looking for anything in particular?"

Not that he'd know where to look for anything specific, but he figured he'd ask so he could keep his eyes open.

“I will be meeting my doctor eventually and I do not wish to walk into the situation unprepared. I believe that it would be best to know who I am up against and observing the individual’s workspace could provide some clues as to what kind of person they are. That, and there is a chance I can find something useful to take from them.” L’s shoulders sagged and his eyes lowered, “Since I have yet to know who my doctor is, this means I will have to go through each office. I imagine it will take more than one night.”

Brooklyn blinked. Had they been in any other situation, that idea would have sounded a lot more creepy. In this case he supposed it was a well enough thought out idea.

He supposed it was just the way he said it that weirded him out. Now that he thought about it more, why not look through the doctor's offices? Then again, anything of any importance probably wasn't in a place so easily reachable. "I guess I'll come along if you need someone to watch your back, then."

L stopped walking and turned towards Brooklyn. “I appreciate it. Since you have been there before would you prefer to lead?” Naomi always insisted that he walk behind her for his protection. This man could want him to do the same.

"Uh.. sure, I guess." In the horror movies, it was always the one walking in the back who got taken first, which wouldn't be good if Brooklyn was going to protect this man. Then again, if he was in front he'd be able to take any straight on attack. When Goliath was with them, he usually took the lead. That sounded like the best option, then. He could peer into rooms first and see if they were safe.

"All right," he said with more confidence. "Follow me."
