Holly didn't feel sorry at all for hitting the boil in the cast. He deserved it after all. She rolled her eyes and shook her fist at him as threatening as she could. "I know but you know how to say my name." Only Savior got the privilege to say it however she pleased. The ghoul nodded in agreement with Damien and Savior. "I'd rather stay together. Er, well it seems that some of the other students are already going one way." At least their little group may stay together.
"Protect?" What did the Marrowstripe mean by that? Holly wished she'd know more about Savior's race but wasn't versed in every person that went to school. After all they should all be able to hold their own. Hmm. The infirmary might actually be a good thing to check out. She'd been in the fight and took some hits. "So guys, East or West?"

When Raziel had finally caught up with Colette in the town, they hadn't said anything to each other, instead they had just kept walking, some unknown force compelling them to go a certain direction. It wasn't long before Raziel found himself looking up a large school building. It seemed that the other students in the abandoned town were also being drawn to the school, and some were even entering already.
Raziel glanced worriedly at Colette once, unsure if he should stay with her, or take his chances with other students he didn't know as well. Taking his chances, Raziel went inside. At first, the sound of his footsteps caused him to flinch a little, reminding him of the shadow that had been mysteriously following him in the fog, but after a few moments he puled himself together and continued a little further into the school. He was thankful that the fog had somehow not managed to permeate the school, because now he could see clearly, and see the other students looking about.
Not so far off, Raziel could see Sarias, and instantly a tingle went down his spine. He had remembered running from her and how she had slapped him across the face. He was still certain that she had something to do with all of this, and so he wanted to stay as far away from her as possible if he could.
Instead of staying the main halls like some of the other students seemed to be doing, Raziel went off towards the West Wing. The first room he went into looked like any other classroom, but there was a small piece of paper that caught Raziel's eye, and he went to examine it.
"Laying in the mud and dirt..? I won?" he read out loud to himself. Won what? He looked down at his dirty body, still covered in grime from his fall in the town earlier. He shook his head a little bit before setting the paper back down and continuing to explore the wing.

"Guessnot," the boil muttered, peering further into the school. Sure, it might have been kind of dumb to try splitting up after all that had happened so far, but this place was so empty that surely their screams would carry if anything bad were to happen. It also seemed there weren't that many places to explore, what with all the off-limits rooms depicted on the map. If they looked around by themselves they would get things done faster and probably get home sooner. Win-win! Right? Win, singular, at least? Okay, fine, maybe small groups would work too.
West turned back to face the growing mass of students making their way into the building and squinted at Mei, quickly gathering the presence of mind from somewhere to deduce what she was talking about. Her doll. The one that stared at him. The one that he 'misplaced' because it creeped him out and... it was a doll. "Yep, yer doll's fine," he lied. He hoped it was a good lie. It wasn't that he wouldn't have welcomed the feisty ghoul's ire, he was just more interested in exploring than he was in fighting at the moment.
"Yeah, so..." He looked at the map again. "I pick east, I guess. We could see if there're'ny bandages'r maybe needles t'stab th'reaperswith if they come back." Yeah, that sounded good.

((Didn't think this would change by the time I woke up. >.>))
Oh that graffiti was not comforting. What had he sent the others into? Certain doom? Hopefully not, he'd never be able to forgive himself if Jove and Momo got hurt following a suggestion he had given them. Junko's desires and his own were perfectly aligned in that moment, though perhaps not for the same reasons. Still, he was eager to move them forward. "Ya, let's go."
He'd helped the half-beast up the stairs, giving him back to Mei to look out for while he himself gave the immediate entrance of the school a serious look over. It was pretty run down, paper littering the floor. Stooping, he picked grim sheet up to read it before pointedly discarding it. Papers with ominous messages scrawled on them, lovely. Then something Mei said caught his attention and he turned, drawing the Futakuchi-onna in against him. "What about a map?"
Ah, there was also the matter of reuniting with Jove and the others. "Jove! Come out, pup. We'll have a pillow fight!" His voice was loud enough to carry, but not too far beyond the main entrance. Hopefully they were within ear shot. And yes, pillow fight had been the key word. On their boat, the best art had been a gigantic pillow fight, but only He, Jove, and Elaphe knew that.
He then turned back to Bul and Mei. "Where ever you two want to go, we'll follow. I'd rather we stick together." East wing it was then.

Sarias had hardly noticed Raziel or Colette making their way past her, after these events she decided she had seen enough of them to last a un-life time and made a very conscious decision to go an alternative route once inside. At least this way they couldn't blame her for something else! She wasn't one for claiming the work off another, no matter how effective it was.
Spitting grime from her mouth she sauntered into the building, there were more students here. Like some unknown force they had all been gathered to the building. Flesh pickling up into goose bumps she shuddered a wave of fear. All in the same place? Probably not a good idea. But either way the need to search this place out was overwhelming. She chose the East wing quickly turning her back on her unlikely partners from before; she would have to remember to thank them personally after this is over and done with.

Bul winced at the Incubus that had entered the school after them- he too appeared to be in rather grim condition. Meanwhile his group looked at the map. The monster boil didn't know what an infirmary was, generally he referred to it as the nurses' office anyway. All he cared about besides his wounds was staying with the majority of the group.
"If everyone is going to the East Wing, then that's probably where I'm going by default.." he chuckled. "Not too hard of a decision I guess. Bul did however sense something about the East Wing that didn't quite bode well. What it was he didn't know but it seemed like well.. all the other rooms had the same sense of danger anyways. There really was no escaping it.
Slowly he followed his group wherever they went staying ever close to Mei.

Ouuuuu man. This building felt very....jadls;fkjkldf to Tomoko. She frowned, following along on the group's tail, ears drooped as she looked at the walls, then at her friends, then at the walls again. The graffiti was pretty nasty, at least to the Kitsune. However, while everybody was choosing between East or West in terms of exploring, Tomoko was....suspicious about the lockers.
However, it seemed that everybody else wanted to go look at the East wing of the building, the girl seeming to hesitate between staying and following everybody else.
"I sort of want to look through the lockers..." she said, shuffling her feet awkwardly and speaking in a really quiet voice. Somehow she got this feeling she'd be alone in her locker-snooping though... at least in terms of if anybody was going to stay and look with her.
Which meant she'd have to gravitate towards somebody else to spend her snooping-time with. At least until she was sure the uneasy feeling she was getting about the items lining the halls went away. They were just too suspicious.

No, no, no no! What was that person doing going off all on their own?! Hadn't Savior tried to just tell everyone that they needed to stay together?! What if they got attacked and eaten?! It didn't take much thought for the monster to take off after Raziel and towards the west wing, her longer legs letting her catch up with relative ease. She thought she'd lost him once or twice due to his size and her general lack of paying attention but it was in a room where the other monster had paused to read something that she managed to get where he was. A look of fury crossed over her face as she marched to his side, her whole body shaking with a mixture of upset and unease.
"Youse." She didn't know his name, not really a surprise. "Dangerous. Stay, protect." The larger monster was clearly offering to stay and protect her smaller companion even though she knew very little. If common sense had kicked in she would have known to stay and protect the two most injured party, Mei and Bul, but they had one another and safety was sometimes in numbers.
Unless the Marrowstripe came in numbers. That would be bad. Swooping was bad.
"Savior."

The sudden presence of another being took Raziel by surprise, and he whirled around to see who was coming. When he saw the ghoul coming, he vaguely recognized her from the boat trip over, but could not for the life of him recall her name. She seemed to be very angry about something, although Raziel had not done anything to her and hadn't said anything to her, so he had no idea why.
"Me?" he said with a plain look of confusion. At first he couldn't really understand what she was getting at, but he figured that she was trying to say that either he should protect her, or she was going to protect him. Either way, it was better to be with someone than alone, and so far she didn't look like she was going to hurt him.
The last thing she said, Raziel wasn't sure whether it was her name or if she was claiming to be his hero. He honestly had no idea, so he had no other choice but to adopt that as her name. "Hey... Savior," he said, somewhat slowly, "I'm Raziel. We were on the same boat to this island." He wasn't sure if she would remember, because at this point the boat was becoming a slightly foggy memory to him as well. Shrugging off the question to himself, he volunteered their next actions, "Should we explore the next room?"

Was there that many people around the town? It was so strange seeing the school slowly getting filled up with so many students, you'd think that there was a class in session. He glanced at the other small group that formed near the entrance, noting the slate skinned boil and his members, he remembered seeing quite a few of them. The short haired girl that had his arm in desperate hold seemed a lot less timid now. And the smell in the air got more potent, as he took another whiff, the fellow canine was nearby, and the heavy smell of blood wasn't far from it. He was just about to walk up to the group and sniff out the canine but there was a blur at the corner of his eye, footsteps heavy and fast. Sweet Jack, was that Savior? "Hey Savior, come back!" Damn, She's the one that wanted to stay together but runs off on her own. The demon dog didn't like the idea of her going solo as she kept going further and further away. "Dammit!" Looks like going East was out of the question as he gave chase and ran down the West hall after her. "Of all the candlejackin' things to do right now Savior, where are you?!" He barked out into the hall, its doorways not looking very hospitable for wayward students. She must of have had a good reason for this.

West turned from the map to get the opinions of his companions, only to see that half of them were gone. He could hear Demi calling out to Savior from somewhere down... that way, so he shrugged at Holly and said, "Be right back?" before taking their lead toward the west wing. He could always come back once he'd found them, right?
(( no wrong, he is definitely taking the west path XD ))

"Razzie. Kay." Another name butchered? Check! Savior would have been smiling if she could though a creature tended to need lips in order to properly smile though her general facial expression was pretty good. This person seemed to understand that they needed her to be with them in order to be safe and she accepted that without much trouble. At the offer to travel to another room she nodded her head and started behind her companion . . . only to quickly grab him from behind, her hands under his armpits. Raziel wasn't as light as she assumed him to be, not that Savior cared, but she was able to lift him off the ground enough to toss him behind her.
"No." The Marrowstripe's hands went to the sides of her face, to the clips on her mask, as she waited for whatever was coming to round the corner. It was unfortunate that the sounds of barking sounded so much like whistling to the paranoid monster, and she was about ready to lunge when a familiar (?) face came into view. The monster didn't relax from her stance, every muscle on her body tense. "Stay."

As they began walking, the last thing Raziel expected was for the monster ghoul to grab him from behind and start to drag him. It not occurred to him that for whatever reason, she had deemed him her charge and would be the one protecting him from every thing that was and wasn't there. It was only a few steps that he got dragged before the barking and footsteps could be heard coming their way.
As Savior released Raziel from her grip, he did his best to stand without falling. She tensed up, looking ready to fight. Not one to stand by idly, Raziel shifted also into a defensive position, ready to combat anything that came their way.
The boil that came running around the corner was not somebody Raziel knew, or could recognize, so he glanced at Savior to see what she did. Since he hadn't moved a muscle, and remained in a position to fight, he didn't relax either. Her command to stay was only barely heard, as Raziel was not going to let a ghoul fight all by herself while he stood there doing nothing.
Just to be sure, Raziel asked, "Is that another student? Do you know him?"

Was she in there? He asked as he stopped in front of the empty room, no, it was too quiet. How about over here? No, still too quiet. He was ready to give up the chase as he rounded the corner and saw he standing not too far away, in a position he was all too familiar with. "Wait savior its me, don't rip my arms off!" He cried out as he put his hand in front of him. "You shouldn't run off on your own like that." He told her as he pouted, did she understand the concern that they had for her?
Was she trying to cover someone? He attempted to peer over her lithe frame and saw that there was a couple of people there. Was she trying to help them, or is she going to rip them apart? Her body language told him that maybe she wasn't trying to keep her prey to herself. "Ah, your a student as well?" he asked from the safe distance away from the limbs of a certain Marrowstripe, noting the skull pin that he wore that was similar to his own.

"Okay.." She answered the wrath demon, relying on his word for the time. But just to be safe, she might have to swing by his dorm to check up on it later.. To be sure he wasn't lying or anything.. (btw her dolls are alive, but they don't move or make sounds. l D)
Waiting for everyone to get a good look at the map, she rocked back and forth on her heels, eager to get a move on. The more they stayed in one spot, the more she felt like a target waiting for the enemy. "East wing then?" A smile worked its way upon her face, pleased that they had decided on a route to take. Finally. They could get moving. Nodding as Seiji spoke, she would just pay little attention to the ghoul.. or boil..? clinging to him. If it really was Junko---then she would just have to suck it up and keep her mouth shut. Last thing they needed was to scrap here.
Pulling out her flashlight (as I'm assuming the power would be out) and switching it on, she made sure not to walk too fast, and instead slowed her pace more so that she was easy to keep up with---especially in Bul's case. Hopefully the students who took the other paths would be okay.. Right? "Think we'll find anything here?" She asked, glancing over to Bul.
