Nightshift 36: Courtyard

((From here.))

Why was it that the Courtyard seemed so much darker than most other places? He dug the water features, sure, but Xigbar didn't like how the place just seemed... dead. He had to make a note to get out of this madhouse pretty soon, or else he'd go stir-crazy. Sticking around with people was great and all, but this was just not good enough. Oh well. Cookies were calling, and after getting his munchies, Xigbar could think of what to do later.

Whatever it was, he was going to get something done. Last night was a fluke, and it was never, ever, ever happening again. Ever. He was Number Freaking Two, he was the go-to guy when something had to be done and was interesting enough to hold his attention! Which meant that if he didn't get something done soon, it'd be hard to keep calling himself a member of the Organization. And that just wasn't going to fly.

Skuld smirked; good, he realized he was outmatched. The only thing she was forbidden to do was kill, after all...

Scarlet alerted her to the presence of two more opponents; hmm, two this time. No matter.

Well that was easy. Xigbar stopped and watched, seeing for himself the time dilation that he'd read about on the bulletin board. They were moving a lot faster than he was; the words kinda blurring together as they all moved around and such. Well, that was fine; he was used to time being a thing to be kneaded and moved around, and if Luxord could do it, then surely he could do a little bending of his own.

For now, however, he wanted to go before he got soaked again. Therefore he bolted, darting to the cafeteria door and slipping inside. Once there he could get dry... for now, though, it was a matter of getting out like a bandit.
