Hotaru gripped her head and Mera frowned seeing that Sybil seemed to have gotten a deeper foothold on Hotaru this time. It irrupted her more than anything that Nero's sacrifice had been wasting by that demon and now she was disrupting what little chance they had at peace. She got that feeling as well that something was off and she stood up, letting her vines finish was she was doing on the other cloak as well before glancing outside, not letting too much light in to the room, "I thought it was a lot busier outside... Maybe it just got later than these folks like to be out for," she mumbled at Hotaru seemed to be calming down at bit. 
Hotaru letting out a breath as when Alari left the room, Sybil seemed to have calmed down a little, "Damn, how come she can do that?" she asked, out of breath, her head throbbing. She thought that unless she was in control she could do nothing more than annoy her with talking.
Mary sat up straight and ran out in to the hall, trying to find the source of it. She hurried up the stairs and had to stop at the sheer darkness around her. She put her hand over her mouth at the smell, gagging a bit.
Both Hotaru and Mera froze when a drop of blood came down through the cracks of the ceiling. Both of them looked up, a little bit of panic with them both. Hotaru because the fact Sybil just suddenly stopped hurting her right in time for that dripping to start. Mera was panicking because this meant one simple thing. Sybil was about to try and barge her way out.
"Larel, get back," Mera said sharply, the small vines shrinking in to the floor, hiding the cloaks as they did, more blood drops came down. Hotaru's eyes were fixated on where the blood fell. She wasn't that thirsty, she'd had plenty, but she was having one of those moments where she was expecting the worst. The floorboards close to Hotaru's hands suddenly snapped up and grasped on to her as a blood drop came down and on to her face, "Find what's causing that before it becomes worse," she ordered him as the drips became steady streams. Hotaru's pupils shrank as the blood got on her, trying to focus. Mera reached her hand up to try and close the boards tighter, but she gasped as shadows pushed them open even further and she put her arms up as a large amount of blood poured down in to the room, the steams now leaving large pools in the floor and Hotaru got completely covered, "This is low, Sybil," she growled knowing she had something to do with it in response to them threatening to seal her. The blood stopped and the floorboards clapped back in to place as Mera used more vines to grip Hotaru's arms, trying to prevent her from moving.
As the floor fell back in to place, the darkness upstair dissipated as well and Mary thought she was going to be sick seeing the bodies in the floor that were mutilated to get the most blood out of them. She felt something behind her and turned around to a different kind of darkness.
