Arriving at the labyrinth awaiting for her other two to join her, she could feel her flesh shaking right into her duster. Angelo beside her, she bent down to comfort the scared dog as the canine didn’t seem to take a fancy to the surroundings around them. Rising to her feet, she gathered her newly crafted SHOOTING STAR blaster edge’d weapon, grasping it close to her for protection.
In every way possible this place felt terrifying, even worse than Ultimecia’s Castle, worse than the recent dungeon or even the places back home her friends and her had gone through. Though, she was a little assured considering she wouldn’t be alone once again and one of the group members she’s paired with, shared the same cabin as her, Vanille. The other, she had yet to encounter and let alone know either of their abilities.
“ This place.. Looks awful. I wonder if the Queen is alright, Angelo. Because no matter what, we have to save her, we can’t just leave her there.”
sᴜɴsʜɪɴᴇ • she definitely did not like this. at. all.
already, she was put on edge from the news that the queen had been taken by such a horrible sounding person, but to step through to get her and find themselves in such a terrifying looking place?
she had half a mind to run back out.
but the moment she turned around to do so, she found snow directly behind her. while she felt a momentary flash of disappointment that her escape route was gone, the relief at having such a reliable and familiar figure along helped to ease her worries. it didn’t hurt that he was plenty large enough to hide behind. she’d wager even rinoa and angelo could hide behind her if need be.
“it does…” she nodded in agreement, fingers fidgeting before her as she turned back round, making herself take a couple steps forward. the dark-haired girl was right: they couldn’t just leave now! not when the queen was in danger. besides, who knew how many other people would be willing to come into this terrifying place to rescue her?
“so…which way should we go first?” she turned to their male friend once more. “snow? what do you think?”
sure , he had seen his fair share of dark & dreary places , but this ------------ this was something else entirely . not a single gust of wind nor even the sound of it was present . all of it made him feel a special kind of uneasy ; the kind that left the hairs on his arms on end & a very dark feeling sitting in his stomach . of all the places he had come to discover back on pulse , this was something else . something bad .
he could easily tell that his companions felt the same , given the shakiness that lay under their normally cheery tones . sure , he hadn’t learned the name of the dark - haired girl that stand parallel to vanille , but he could deduce that she was in a mind state similar to that of the other female in the group . caution , fear . her & vanille both showed it easily .
❛ first things first , we need to keep a level head . we can’t be afraid of whatever is in here . if we do that , we will lose before we even get started . ❜ a hand came to rest upon the redhead’s shoulder , as he never let his eyes leave the corridors in front of them . ❛ vanille , i want you to focus on your healing abilities , assuming you have them still . stay behind me and the other girl and focus on that . if we lose you , then we will all lose as well . ❜
