Shouto and Katsuki stood before the institute. The lamp posts around them gave off an oddly eerie effect since barely any cars were out and it was pitch black night. The half and half boy turns to his friend, not really wanting him to get involved in his mess. "You sure you want to do this?"

    Katsuki looks at him and scoffs. "If I didn't, do you think I'd be standing out here with your sorry ass?" The blond faces forward again and heads up the concrete stairs.

Shouto sighs and follows after Katsuki through double door after double door. The front office was empty, excluding a couple nurses that were in the office towards the back. They were talking, not worried about who just came through the door. Shouto walks up to the desk and leans over for the familiar red button. But there were too many damn papers in the way! Messy ass nurses. Shouto feels his body get jerked down and pulled under the small extended end of the counter. Katsuki looks up and listened to the sound of someone shuffling papers around.

"You almost got caught dumbass."

"Sorry", is the only thing Shouto could say. They listen in close for the nurse to leave. And finally she does once she's called back over to look at something. Shouto guesses that they're being off-task since they're laughing and talking about...not safe for work subjects. "Gross. Does your dad know about this?"

    Shouto shrugs and moves from underneath the table. He peeks his head over, seeing both nurses having their backs facing him. He looks down and sees that the papers are gone and the button is presentable.

Swiftly, Shouto presses it and the sound of heavy clicks are heard. The doors open and both boys quickly head inside. "Huh, Yuri did you accidentally press the button?"

   The other shakes her blonde hair before turning back to the phone.

On the other side of the wall, Katsuki and Shouto stayed against the wall. They made sure the women weren't coming out to see what or even who came in. Once they knew they were in the clear, they continued down the hall. Katsuki follows Shouto while admiring each sterilized white hallway of the asylum. He's obviously never been in one, but it just looked like a normal hospital corridor. In all honesty, he kind of pictured the asylum to look like all of the other scary cliche movies that had asylums.

The boys walked through each hallway, almost like a maze. And Shouto began to worry as he wasn't able to find the mysterious hallway that led him to what seemed to be the old file room. "Icyhot, you sure you know where you're going? I feel like we've passed this same door ten times already." Shouto stops and stands in the middle of the hall where the corridor had hallways to the left and right side of him. "I know what I saw! It was like an old file room, but in this very creepy location", he adds.

Shouto couldn't understand as to why he couldn't find that specific room. Had I been hallucinating the entire time? He was getting worried, heart racing while Katsuki just waited patiently for Shouto to know where he was going. The red and white haired boy crouched on the floor, the room seemed to spin and he began to get hot. He felt like throwing up. Please. I know I'm not crazy, but this situation is just getting ridiculous.

     "Todoroki...".

He jolts and looks left and right. To the hallway on the left was the same girl dressed in the nightgown. Still bloodied and her slit throat was not making his sickness better. "Eri", he whispers.

"Who? Icyhot you're acting weird again."

Shouto watched as Eri walked down the right hallway. "Wait!" He chases after the girl, Katsuki right behind him. They turned in different directions until they stopped in front of an old door. Shouto and Katsuki breath steadily to not overwhelm themselves. They stare at the door before them, the dingy blue that surrounded the small window gave Shouto familiar chills.
