"Ah, Hymn-san, I'm not sure that's a very good idea..."
Kotori trailed off in the middle of her sentence as he turned the doorknob and pushed the door open. The girl instinctively cringed, as if expecting something to happen. Like a monster to come rushing towards them, perhaps. Monsters don't exist, she firmly thought to herself.
Thinking back to what the boy said earlier, she realized he did have a point - they were going to die in here unless they tried to escape. But, to put things simply, she fully planned on being one of the ones who made it out alive. Although she wasn't going to go out of her way to hinder the group's efforts, she most definitely wasn't going to stop them from dying, either. Of course, she thought her job to be keeping the living members of the group sane and well, but stopping them from dying was something out of her comfort zone. And I hate stepping out of my comfort zone, she confirmed, I can't help them with that...
The girl froze as she heard something faint, yet distinctly moving closer to them outside the door. It was almost like it was swirling closer and closer outside in the hallway. ...And I suppose that would be our 'monster' then, she thought, her imagination already conjuring rather disturbing images of what could be... out there. Kotori admitted, however, that the music... enraptured her. She could almost describe it as beautiful, really. But considering the circumstances and what horrors probably awaited them beyond the door... The girl shot a glance at Hymn.
But as she looked at him in the doorway, she realized he hadn't been decapitated or chopped in half, so she assumed it was relatively safe. For now. Kotori cautiously peered out of the doorway, eyes darting about the hallway and taking in her surroundings. Undoubtedly, she was trying to find the source of the music, as well.
And that was when Kotori finally noticed the shadowy figure at the end of the hallway. All thoughts about the violin quickly disappeared from her mind as she struggled not to gape at the... whatever it was with rabbit ears. And what was up with with its arm? . "So... according to the crazy man... that's the Friagne?" she muttered to no one in particular. Kotori had no idea what the 'Friagne' was supposed to be, but just looking at the creature repulsed her.
