Tired from running like a b***h, sliced, and arrowed he just meandered into the room with others and just hung out by a near wall so he wouldn't just collapse right where he stood.

Sherry caught her breath, taking in the situation. Sherry could tell at a glance they were stuck. The trainees that had preceded her were apparently working out something with levers and glyphs. Maybe. The glyphs made no sense to her, but she hoped they'd worked something out.
She turned as other trainees followed in on her heels. She nodded in greeting, her breathing returning to normal. So far, they'd made it.

Part Two
As he bolted across the room, the arrows shot out. This time, however, he wasn't able to properly utilize Vanna as arrows zinged and whizzed and nicked him every which way. Eventually, he arrived, breathing hard and bleeding.

Somehow, in the dark of the tunnels, he'd gotten turned around. Jordan stopped just inside the doorway of the treasure hallway, biting off a quiet curse. Nope. Still not safe, still not staying here. He had no intention of becoming another pile of chipped bones in this lair.

The whoosh of air overhead made Jordan's reflexes kick in before his brain had caught up to what was going on; the blades that fell from the ceiling missed him by inches as he jumped back into the archway. The beam of his flashlight illuminated the rapid sweeping of the blades in measured arcs; beyond them he glimpsed another archway. He hesitated. He could go back - but if there were no other way forward, or if he encountered the chimera, he'd be in trouble.
He held the flashlight steady, mentally timed the sweep of the blades. There was a pattern to the way they swung, and he began to see a way through. He could make it, if he timed this just right.
Summon me, Ferros suggested.
If I have to account for your weight and size, it'll be a lot harder. Jordan shook his head. We'll be fine.

"Okay, you two trainees, come here." Sandy gestured towards Gale and Cass. "I need one of you just to stand on this rune, and the second to stand here, right on it, that will be perfect." She spend a few moments redirecting them to the proper locations. "Don't- try not to press anything else while standing okay?" Wiping sweat off her brow with the back of her hand, she began to walk through the sequence again, with the ones she had not tried.
Sandy looked back up at Wilson and Eva, biting her lower lip. "Mm, I didn't think so. How about this, you two stand at the levers, and when we've deactivated the lock, we can immediately haul ourselves out of here, I think that's a good trade." She glanced a little wistfully at the hall of arrows, hoping that at least a few more trainees would make it. They were all good people after all, some of them even what she would consider kids still.

Cass did as instructed by Sandy, moving over to stand on one of said runes confidently - and hoping it didn't just spontaneously explode once the right combination was formed or something.
Because that would have been unfortunate, actually.
"Alright, ready!" she grinned.

Ariane ran when she was told to, because she's one to obey authority.
She ended up in the closest archway to the left, using mainly her flashlight and weapon's glow as a light source, the weapon tablet she found tucked into the bag of supplies.

Rep, feeling he had escaped menial labour, just slunk off away from the mechanism to watch, putting a good bit of distance between himself and any potential disasters that might just crop up. Spotting Rin as she arrived. "You didn't get eaten? Shaaame." he smirked.

"More like my brain is running itself into the ground it's going so fast," murmured Gale to Eva, rubbing his face. He felt that strange sensation of being simultaneously exhausted and having a crazed adrenaline rush still icing his veins, and the combination was making him jittery and slightly dizzy.
At Sandy's voice, however, he glanced over, and made his way towards the rune in question, following Cass's example. And, like Cass, he dearly hoped that stepping onto it would not result in his untimely death, nor hers, nor anyone else's, for that matter.
He stepped up onto the rune.
"Ready."

As she continued running down the corridor, Ariane quickly realized that she was approaching another area; given how she remembered needing to find a 'glyph room', she could only hope that she had gotten lucky.

The blades swung steadily, penduluming back and forth; Jordan counted silently, then took off at a sprint, running a straight line through the middle of the room, missing some blades by a margin far too close for comfort. He made it most of the way through without mishap, but he'd mistimed the final blade, somehow; it caught his leg, slicing painfully across his calf and pitching him forward through the archway on the other side.
He allowed himself the luxury of staying on the floor for a few moments, calming his nerves. If it wasn't for Ferros's protection, he'd have been hamstrung. Thank you, he said to his weapon, still shaken.

It was a good thing Ariane was never attracted to (most) shiny things, or the next room might had been quite the distraction; it looked like a room straight out of a movie involving treasure and adventure. Wondering if this was the room she was supposed to be looking for, she beamed the flashlight around, trying to see if there was anyone else around. Noticing a pedestal with a strange glyph, however, she could only assume that the glyph was in another room, and turned to exit.

As she turned around to head towards the exit of the room filled with various shiny things, she caught sight of a very familiar blue glow out of the corner of her eye - she could have sworn that it belonged to a certain death division head, but when she shone her torchlight in that direction, there wasn't anybody there...
Was it her imagination?

Rin smirked in Reps direction, "I could say the same about you. I'd have expected and understood you dying horribly..."
