Nightshift 23 -- Hallway Outside Sun Room/Entry Room

Zabuza left the M-Block and continued down the wide open hallway towards the other end of the hospital. This was the path they took every morning to get to breakfast so it was familiar enough for him to do in the dark. It was whatever lie further down that was a mystery. Zabuza couldn't help but like it that way.

He was leading Haku into the unknown.

Haku frowned slightly as he followed. He hoped he hadn't been wrong in his guess.

Roy didn't notice any change in Hawkeye's demeanor. Even if he had realized it, he wouldn't have been able to identify it as fear. Havoc, Fury, and the others he might expect it from, but the sharpshooter had always seemed almost unbreakable.

He knew that no one was that much of a solid wall, but the woman had never been one to falter. It was admirable, how well she had done for herself when her gender had been working against her. It was as if she worked that much harder, just to prove everyone else wrong.

Then again, he had not seen the state she was in when she'd found him collapsed on the ground, head soaked with blood on the night he went after Pride. He'd only seen the aftereffects of her concern in the hospital...

He moved down the hallway, relying on his strengthened vision as he searched for any stray patients, but it seemed as if everyone was either still in the patient blocks or upstairs, heading for the chapel.

Perhaps they wouldn't be noted. Perhaps they could get this taken care of without a single hiccup. He wasn't going to count on it, though.

Upon breaking away from the section of male patients' rooms, the dense cloud of people from the previous hallway quickly thinned, and this particular path looked all but empty. He knew it was on the path to the Sun Room, but he knew nothing of what was at the end of it, with the large room stuck somewhere in between the beginning and the end and the light pitiful enough as it was.

Noah followed the child silently, keeping a watch in front as well as behind, along with constraining his ears to listen for any sound out of the ordinary. Luckily, the slippers that they were given were almost completely silent on the hard floors. It was a small thing to be thankful for, at least. And the least is what they had.

Sanzo led the way, keeping a good portion of his attention on the man behind him. Turning his back like this wasn't something he'd quite planned on, but of the two of them, only Sanzo had actually been to the doctors' offices.

The monk's hand tightened a little on the flashlight. If worse came to worse, he wasn't going to have to rely completely on just unarmed combat. He'd already broken a somewhat solid lock with one of these, so getting hit with one probably wasn't going to been shaken off too easily.

Sanzo was hoping to lure the other into making a mistake. If it was Hakkai, then nothing would come of it. Infinitely easier to deal with. But if it was an assassin, then this would be too good an opportunity to pass up.

Hisoka nodded at Dias' explanation, committing these scraps of information to memory as he reached the corner and looked around. It wasn't the wisest idea to go barreling around corners with no clue what lied just around it.

"I believe our files will have these names of ours rather than our true names, so it's best to know now before we get there."

Turning the corner, the boy started down the hall, recognizing it despite it's darkened appearance. They would be near the Sun Room soon enough...

The next hall revealed no monsters, but something interesting none the less. Both Sanzo and Hakkai, along with the temptation to pester. It'd been so long since he'd seen them, after all.

But alas, there was little time for it, and he gave them nothing more than a brief glance highlighted by a smug smile as he led his party past them...a promise to play more later.

"Have any of you encountered these rooms at night before?" While it certainly wouldn't stop their progress, it wouldn't hurt to have an idea of what to expect.

The halls on the way over to the kitchen were boring so far, but Kadaj did what he could to keep his mind from wandering. Now that he knew he was the favorite, he couldn't help but suspect that Sephiroth would try to do the exact same thing he had been doing up until that point and succeed in taking that away from him. He couldn't allow that to happen.

Echoing his earlier thoughts in an effort to keep the conversation going, he added, "We can go there after we're armed, if you like. Might be fun."
