Nightshift 31: West Wing, Hall B

Almost there now. Kurikara paused briefly to catch his breath and get his bearings. It wasn't a great distance by any measure but he had to be careful of opening his wounds again and attracting unwanted attention.
He was pretty sure he was still going the right way; there were no doors along this hallway, and it seemed dark and silent for now. He kept on high alert, cautious and close to the wall. Now that he'd stopped running, his bare feet would be silent against the cold floor, but he knew anything that lived in these shadows would have senses that didn't require sight or sound.
Because it was important that he got there and back in time, Kurikara crushed his pride and took any little advantages he could find. Almost there. He could see the door ahead now.
