[center][h1][color=f26522]Alexander Furst[/color][/h1] [hr][@Crimmy] [@JBRam2002] [@GarlandDaHero] [@Suku][hr] [color=f26522]"I'm pretty sure we are more than ready,"[/color] Alex mumbled as he turned to eye the other students as they began arming themselves with a variety of tools and props. He legitimately wanted to roll his eyes at some of the crap they decided to utilize for protection, but honestly, he couldn't argue. After all, those items were the best they were gonna get at the moment. Putting a hand on his hip, he stared at the exit of the room. Did he really have to depart? Couldn't this be one whole horrible dream he's having. Sighing, he jammed his index fingers nail into his thumb as he exited the room. The howling of some disembodied voice reverberated a little louder as he followed the shorter girl out into the hallway. At this point, he winced a little and stared at the indent. Yeah, cliche, but heck if it doesn't help decipher whether or not you are truly slumbering. Two hallways - one leading to the practice building, the other the front of the school. The choice was pretty obvious as to where they were going to go. Without a second thought, he pivoted to the side for about two seconds... before swinging back around to watch her walk in the opposing direction. Ok, what. Was she actually serious about actually seeking other students out? For starters, no no no no nooooooo, that was plain suicidal at this point. To be quite frank, that selflessness was putting the entire group at stake already... makes one wonder if she ever learned what "self-preservation" was. As Alex looked back, he let out a little [color=f26522]"tch"[/color] as he pivoted around and began following after little Ms. "I'm Gonna Be a Heroine," passing by the other members. His teeth were laid bare, his brows furrowed as he reached out a hand... before stopping and just picking up the pace to jettison past the girl. Alex was going to play it safe and go with the facet that she stated she was unnerved. After all, he preferred not to get injured by a classmate nevertheless. [color=f26522]"Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah,"[/color] he hissed under his breath as he obstructed Kagami-san's way. He held up the palm of his hand to her, hopefully halting her in her tracks. [color=f26522]"I'm sorry but I am not lettin' you drag us on this stupid expedition to find other student's,"[/color] he spat out under his fiery breath, staring down his shorter compatriot. [color=f26522]"None of us know where we've been truly dragged off too and we have no idea what we might encounter, aside from this oppressive atmosphere,"[/color] he felt the daunting weight of the place continue to settle on him as he swore he saw something out of the corner of his eye. Oh good, a possibility of seeing things now as he inched his head back to survey the area behind him. Nothing but the howling shrieks of a creepy, gray-scale school that was bleeding. Turning back to eye the girl, he prayed that he would get his point across now, lest they were to end at an impasse. [color=f26522]"Our first order of business should be to secure an escape route and leave as soon as possible, because lets be honest here..."[/color] Alex turned away from the kendo kid for a brief moment, pointing his baton to the ends of the darkness. [color=f26522]"If there is anyone else stuck here, they're probably trying to get outta dodge already, dead, or anything else you can think of."[/color] Setting a hand on his hip and turning back to eye the girl, he gave her a hardened frown with gaze that would shatter diamonds. [color=f26522]"Get. Your. Priorities. Straight."[/color][/center]
