The last person Roxas expected to see was Gemma. He was that guy from the Anistar Gym who had sparred with Sakura. And when he said he thought Sakura wasn't a psychic, Roxas's heart nearly stopped beating. Uh oh, not good. It all came flooding back to him, Roxas's outburst and the fact that he had said Sakura wasn't a psychic. This little bit of awkwardness was indeed his fault. [color=Gold]"Oh, uh..."[/color] Roxas stammered, trying not to panic, [color=Gold]"See, I only [i]thought[/i] that Sakura wasn't psychic,"[/color] Roxas said, hoping this would be a good enough excuse, [color=Gold]"but I found out later that I was wrong and she's actually psychic after all. That's, uh, totally my bad. Sorry about that."[/color]

After the exchange, Roxas put himself in Luka's group - mostly to avoid continuing the previous conversation with Gemma. Pit joined Luka's group as well, and afterward they set out for what seemed to be a residential wing of the hospital. The hallways were lined with numbered rooms intended for patient's stay in. The area was filled with this bubbly white stuff that Roxas was unable to identify. It kind of looked like wax, but what kind of wax just bubbled and boiled like that? And then Roxas started to notice the humanoid shapes lying in the stuff. He recoiled a bit as a kneejerk reaction, [color=Gold]"Ugh, gross. Are those... [i]people[/i]?"[/color] he wondered aloud. Luka explained that he wasn't sure if these were victims or just creatures waiting to spring to life and attack. Roxas [i]really[/i] hoped it was the former. After what happened the day before yesterday with all those people succumbing to the redshift? Roxas had no desire to fight something that had once been a person.

In fact, Roxas tried to avoid getting near the things if he could help it. In one or two instances where he had no choice, he sliced them up with his Keyblades easily enough. But he was pretty unsettled by this place. Between this and the redshift he seriously wondered why anyone would bother living in these parts of the city. If it were him, he'd be doing whatever it took to move and live elsewhere. Roxas shook his head, trying his best to shake off the creeps that this place was giving him.

Eventually the team was faced with a head... tentacle... thing that seemed to be surveying the room like some kind of freaky security camera. Definitely looked like the sort of thing they needed to sneak past. And Pit was the one who asked the obvious question. Roxas didn't speak at first, guessing instead that if such was possible Luka would have suggested it himself. And in that case, well, what to do about this? [color=Gold]"Looks like that has to twist itself around in order to see everything in room. Maybe we can watch it for a bit? Might be some kind of pattern we take advantage of."[/color] he suggested with a small shrug.
