SASHA'S POV

In Sasha's defense, she has never flied on a huge bird before and she has all the rights to be scared. Luckily for her the fly is brief, soon Jow Sparrow lends on the roof of the silent castle. It's all so dark, Sasha's senses are tense. Anne and him are shining like little suns so as soon as they put their feet on the roof, they lighten it up. 

Anne caresses Joe Sparrow on the beak and greets him. 

-See ya, Joe. Wait for us flying around, ok? Don't stay still.- She recommends. Joe chirps and nods, starting flying again. Anne nods in Sasha direction and they run together to a hatch on the ground. Sasha opens it with a strong kick and the hinges break. 

They both jump down, ending up in a tight hallway. The only light comes from them two. They walk one behind another, silent. Sasha has already unsheated her swords and walks carefully, looking around. Anne is determined to find Marcy, she grabs her tennis racket. 

They turns a few times, ending up in a larger hallway. There are, on the left and right sides, two series of armors. 

-Where do we go, now?- Sasha asks, leaning at the wall. Anne rubs her chin. 

-We should split up, as planned.- She says in the end, hesitant. Sasha wide opens her eyes and stand up, making a step ahead. 

-What? But we just arrived! Isn't it a bit too early...?- She says but he hasn't finished talking yet when Anne shakes her head, determinated. 

-No, it's not. Trust me, Sasha. You'll go searching for Andrias and the hive mind, and I...- Sasha feels the nervousness rising again. She crosses his arms. No, this time he has no intention to let Anne be in danger again just because she wants to reascue Marcy. 

-Oh, yes, I go searching for Andrias and you'll rescue Marcy, right?- She says in an aggressive tone of voice, sharp as a knife. Anne makes a steps behind and blushes, flustered. 

-What...? Sasha, it's not the moment! We can't argue now, come on!- Anne replies. 

-Why not? Because you've hurry to go save your brunette?- Sasha teases her. Anne blushes even more and makes another step behind. 

-Shut the fuck up, for once! You want to rescue Marcy, too! They may be in danger, idiot!- Anne is so close to yelling. Sasha closes his hands in fists, doesn't let her scare him. 

-Oh, yeah? Then why don't we switch roles? I'll go searching for Marcy and you'll take down the hive mind!- She proposes, sarcastic. Anne's expression changes in less than a second. Her Power shines stronger and she narrows her eyes, looking mad at Sasha. 

-Stop acting like a crybaby!- She spits out the words, furious. -Now we'll split up also because I don't want to see your egoistic face for a while! See ya!- She says, mad, and turns behind. 

-Anne...?- Sasha mutters, astonished. Oh no, no, no. She didn't think it was gonna end up like this. -Anne!- She calls again, but the curly haired girl is already gone, all alone in the castle. All Sasha can do it turning behind and going on the opposite direction, hoping she'll be fine. She has to be.

...

Sasha hasn't a real goal in her mind, she doesn't know how a "hive mind" looks like and she doesn't know where to go to find it, so he just walks around, playing with her swords and attacking some mind-controlled newts when he meets them. 

She's starting to get nervous and bored at the same time so she just decides to open every door, without caring anymore about being stealth or silent. She just kicks every door she sees and enters inside like a hunderstorm, rotating her swords in air.
