"It's taking her too long," Cherry finally exclaimed. She and Kouji were occupying the main chamber, waiting for Skye to return from her assigned tunnel. The both, unluckily, had discovered nothing but two dead ends, so they were anxious to hear what Skye, if anything, had encountered.

"Don't worry about it," Kouji responded flatly, "She probably just found a monster and her pride is forcing her to defeat it."

"Maybe, but that doesn't sound like something she would do," said Cherry inattentively.

"You're too paranoid sometimes," Kouji grunted, folding his arms across his chest. "If you're so worried, you should send her a message."

"But if she really was battling, that would distract her. I should just go and make sure she's alright." She began down the leftmost corridor, her eyes still rested upon Kouji. "You coming with?"

Kouji merely shook his head.

Cherry shrugged, facing forward. "Suit yourself." And with that, she vanished into the shadows.
