It was decided then. They would head to the science room and gather equipment they need to create fire. Anri liked this idea; fire was good. Fire could be relied on. It can purge the unclean and ward off the heartless darkness. Fire was always there when Anri needed it most. Katashi removed himself from Anri's grip and took point. Gripping her lighter in her pocket Anri followed, as did the others. They moved as quickly as they could in a tight group. Anri tried to ignore the idea that if any monster showed up now, they were all in a nice little cluster to take them out in one fell swoop. After all, they had at least managed to create a crude torch, which may not be very effective but it was better then nothing.

Of course the good feelings wouldn't last. Though the halls were dark and there were hardly any sources of light from this hell, even Anri could make out the blood-soaked writing on the walls. [i]“Do not trust him.”[/i] Him could mean a lot of things. It could have meant Katashi. Or maybe Jack. Or even Anri. However him could also mean the monsters in the school. While no one knows their exact gender (And Anri wasn't interested in figuring out their sex), male pronouns were often attributed to powerful and dangerous things. Or maybe they'd later encounter a stranger who would try and offer his help to them, only to betray them when they need it. Any of these things could be the truth. Or maybe this was just a bluff to catch them off guard? Surely it was. What reasons did the group have to betray each other?

They all just wanted to survive, right?

Anri glanced around. Shizune and Yuriya knew a lot more about this world than Anri did. They knew enough that Anri wouldn't be able to call them out on keeping secrets. Like how exactly they knew this place, and how they managed to survive. Anri kenw so little that they could tell her anything, and there's be no way she could prove them wrong. The fact they kept acting so damn nonchalant and aloof about it pissed Anri off. Yes they knew what to do, but the rest didn't. They were just blindly following them like sheep to the slaughter. How would any of them even know this wasn't just a big trap, where the girls would sell their souls to some monster in the end so they could get away scot-free? Anri didn't know. She just wasn't sure.

But she wasn't going to let them catch her off guard.

Gripping her lighter Anri flipped it open and smalled the fumes. She didn't release a flame. not yet. She couldn't show her fire right now. She needed to wait for the right time. After taking a whiff Anri cluched her arms close and kept walking. She chewed on her tongue, tasking the sweetness mix with the slight pain. She was starting to get hungry. And while Shizune said they didn't need to eat, that still doesn't change the fact that Anri just felt like eating something. not that she was going to eat her tongue, but... She could use some gum or something. Just something to chew on, keep her mouth closed. What was taking so long?
