The spirit with Hinata offered her their sweater. Another voice echoed through the halls, the spirit turned to Hinata. “Go hide in that room, now” they pointed to a door near them.

Adara cursed. She darted into the maze and around a corner.

A spirit bumped into Adara when she walked around the corner. “Oh dear! I’m so sorry!” They exclaimed.

Adara jumped. "O-oh, you're okay." Her fire was bubbling up in her and she tried desperately not to let it show.

Hinata ducked into the room, clutching the sweater around her. Usually, she didn't fear things like this, but she had a feeling this wasn't something she could just brush off.

The room was freezing, he felt like he was in the Hitorian mountains. he zipped up his hoodie, and crossed his arms, shivering.

The spirit that bumped into Adara walked away, apologizing on the way.

On the other hand, the room Hinata was in was not one that blocked outside sounds so she could hear what was going on.

“Greetings, Sir Lachlan” the spirit said as they bowed once. “You’ve gone overtime I’m afraid…” the Sir Lachlan sighed as they said to the spirit. The spirit seemed to be in shock, looking at their pocket watch. “I’m terribly sorry sir!! Please just allow me to—“ they begged in a terrified voice before this Sir Lachlan grabbed their shoulder. “I’m sorry…but you know the rules” Sir Lachlan said with a smile before coursing a high voltage of electricity through the spirit causing them to vanish, leaving only the mask they wore. Sir Lachlan then walked back into the hallways.

Hinata peeked out of the door, seeing the mask on the ground. She picked it up and put it in her pocket, seething.
"I don't know what happened, but I highly doubt I like this Sir Lachlan."

Adara hurried down the long, twisting halls, breathing hard, panicking slightly. She glanced around. Had this place been called the Murder section?

In Tolkalee’s hallway, an unmasked figure walked in the halls ignoring everyone around them. All the spirits in the hall bowed as they passed them. “Greetings, Sir Oliver” they all said one by one.

Hinata took off the sweater, no longer cold.
"Okay, so the area gets cold before someone like him comes in. Good to know." Hinata walked forward.

Tolkalee walked forward and entered the gate, walking straight into the maze that he didn't know existed behind it. He was still cold as he wandered around. Still glancing behind him every so often to make sure he wasn't being followed.

Adara pulled her hood over her face, shivering. It was cold in the place, even though she was a fire mage. She went into a big room, seeing a bunch of spirits milling around, and tried to blend in with them.

In Adara’s hallway, a scream can be heard near the exit of the hallway. Another announcement can be heard. “Thank you Knight A and Knight D, the mortal has been taken care of, thank you for your time. You may now return to your patrol.”

Hinata moved steadily forward, making her way to God knows where.

Adara winced, though at least she hadn't been the mortal. She hadn't been discovered yet. She hid her head and walked around, trying to feel the familiar aura of her ancestor.

A figure grabbed onto Tolkalee’s shoulder. “Where do you think you’re going?” A young man’s voice asked him.

Hinata was still walking.
"God, this hall is long."

Finally, she felt what she thought was a familiar aura, belonging to a spirit sitting on a bench near her. She walked over, hesitant.

Dragging the corpse of the mortal through the hallways, the Knight A and Knight D walked pass Adara. They both looked at her…one of them stopped. “What’s wrong?” Knight D asked. “You go on without me…I’m feeling a little sick…” Knight A answered. Knight D nodded, dragging the corpse to another hallway. Knight A stood in front of Adara and leaned towards her. “What are you doing here…Ada?”

Hinata stopped.
"This is getting me nowhere." She let out a tendril of power, trying to find what direction her parents might be in. It pointed behind her.
"FU-"

The spirit sitting on the bench saw the knight. They then stood up and walk towards the group of buildings in the distance.

A figure grabbed onto Tolkalee’s shoulder. “Where do you think you’re going?” A young man’s voice asked him.

Tolkalee pulled away, ripping his dagger out and holding to the throat of the person there. "Who are you!" he demanded.

Adara stiffened, recognizing the voice. She turned slowly, eyes blazing beneath her mask. "You…" she hissed. "You left me at that place and never sent me back! And you left me! Do you know how much I missed you, how I wished to see you again? But YOU. LEFT. ME!"

A hurried announcement was made. “Attention please! Knight B, Knight F and Knight H please hurry to the Betrayal region. An unfamiliar aura was discovered by the patrol group. Thank you for your attention”

Hinata was still cursing, now running the way her powers were pointing.
"Motherf*cking piece of cr *p…"

The figure that tapped Tolkalee’s shoulder leaned back as the dagger was by his throat. “With an attitude like that, maybe other Knights would like your corpse more than me” the figure stated as they walked away.

Knight A leaned back. “Okay, fine, fine. I’m sorry…I’m terribly sorry. But…you do realize you’re in quite the place right? It’s not safe for you to stay here for long”

Knight B arrived at the Betrayal region before the other two did. “Now…where is that aura coming from?” Knight B said to themself. They ran in the hallways, looking for the aura emitter.

Tolkalee instantly switched to his bow drawing back a razor sharp arrow. "Take one more step, and you will have an arrow in the back of your head," he warned the armored figure.
