You reach your hand inside the bag and feel an oddly shaped thing.

"A flask." You say, pulling out the object. "Who put in a flask?"

"I.... I did...." Mutters a voice from the back. Krory steps forward nervously, looking as if he might go running at the sound of a pin drop.

"You and Krory!" Leenalee says happily, shoving the two of you into the closet. "You have seven minutes starting... Now!"

~~~

The first minute is spent sitting in awkward silence.

"So...what's in the flask?"

"Akuma blood."

"Oh..."

More silence.

"Hey, Krory?" You ask finally.

"Yeah?"

"Are you ok? You seem nervous and scared."

"O-oh...." He says, voice wavering.

"You know, we don't have to do anything if you don't want to."

You can't see him very well, but you can tell he's about to cry. You crawl forward and give him a hug.

"It's ok, you can tell me anything. I won't leave you to cry by yourself." You pat his head and start to feel his tears roll down your shoulder.

"Eliade!" He sobs and hugs you back.

"Time's up!" You hear from outside. The doors swing open and light floods into the dark space.

Krory is still hanging onto you and sobbing as you exit the closet.

Allen and Lavi pry him off of you and take him out of the room to cry somewhere else.

Your first try was uneventful.
