Only One Way [] 14/14 []

A lot had happened in the moments passing Leigh's announcement. Michael and Raphael had both gotten to their feet, Michael's hand prepared to grab his gun if need be. Though neither of them believed it, there's always the chance that Leigh had actually panicked. A small child tried to bolt down the hallway to see what was going on, but they were swooped up by Max and quickly taken into the bedroom on the right - Draco and Mal's room. There's a loud, startled conversation that can be heard from behind the now-closed door. Samson had no reaction. Anthony had pushed Lu behind him, but Sam, curious as always, had taken a few steps forward to glance down the hall. They look both concerned and confused.

*"Hold on a second, who?"*

"Sam, stay in here, you don't know who's in there." Anthony spoke calmly, despite that seeing his child walk towards potential danger struck fear in him. He didn't like it.

*"Seth is. Be right back."* Seth told them that he was going to help Martin find the correct room to break into, so they're not worried. They expect him to be in there as well.
