David closed his eyes for a moment as his appearance returned to normal. "I can't locate any guards in the vicinity." He informed them. "It should be safe for now." He looked around in the direction of everyone's voices trying to see them, instead of using his gift.
Marisia had just killed one of the retreating guards. "Bring the light back Charon, but leave it dim that way we're prepared for them when they return." She said. She wiped her hands on her dress in order to clean them.

"I can't feel their emotions anymore." Sophie said "So they re gone.' she nodded her head confidently.
"They know now we are not ready to go back to where we came from." Chikao said, she stood with a blank expression, processing words without fear, improving her translation. Her English was still formal, but in correct grammar. She smiled and walked over to Marisia "You have killed one, they will not forget us in a hurry." Chikao began to pull the clothes off of the guard and fasten them over her hospital gown, she was tired of being near naked in front of men. It wasn't a perfect fit, but it was still better than nothing.

Charon sighed, but nodded slowly and made the lights come back on, but dim. He was shaking, how close had they come to being recaptured?.... or killed? Terrified, that was all he was. He didn't even want to think what it would have been like if they had all died around him; if he even tried to imagine it, he knew he'd just become useless again. "Is... everyone okay?" He asked shakily, glancing around, trying to see all of his companions.

Marisia stepped to the side. "More like four." She said, pointing at the four dead guards behind her. "I got carried away." She cracked her wrists, and knuckles. "I'm fine." She informed Charon.
David squeezed Charon's arm. "You know I'm fine." He said, smiling cheerfully at him.

"We should change into their clothes, there are enough for all of us. We will stand out much less..." Chikao paused "Well, everyone except Sophie." She breathed out She was getting tired, She couldn't keep going like this, she needed to take a break from translating, ti was trying her brain power too much.

Charon smiled back at David for a moment, looking down at the clothing of the guards and pursing his lips. For an 18 year old, he was quite short, really only going up to an average-sized person's elbow. None of those clothes would come close to fitting him; not only would it look ridiculous, it would be dangerous if they were chased again. "I... don't think that would work out, for some of us," He said softly, not wanting to cause any problems.

"I wear it, it is big for me, take a small one, they are not all the same size." Chikao said, She looked really masculine in the baggy clothes and short hair. It didn't even pass her ears, they had shaved most of it when she first came there. It wasn't even by her own fault that she was there, her stupid Fiance was just too much of a coward to go down with honour, otherwise he'd have been there with her.
In the low light Jerome stripped of his jeans and button down shirt and put on one of the taller uniforms, he picked up Sophie ready to go when needed.

Charon was about to protest, to tell her that he would just trip over the boots and pantlegs, but decided just to go along with it and get changed like he was told. With a grimace, he stripped of his bright green, womanly kimono and took one of the uniforms, getting dressed into it slowly. He looked ridiculous, since it didn't suit him in any way, but he also didn't look so bad in it. "We should still be extremely gentle, even dressed like this," he said softly. "But atleast if one of us goes down like this, the rest of us can just act along with it."

David pointed at himself. "I'm already wearing a uniform." He stated, smiling like a fool again. His changed appearance was almost 100% accurate.
Marisia picked up one of the uniforms. "Ehh, must I wear this?" She asked, looking at it with disgust. "I know my dress is a bit torn up, but I'd rather not wear something this...ugly...and difficult to move in." She didn't really want to change her clothing.

"Please suit yourself." Chikao said plainly, pulling off one uniform for Marisia "It is camouflage, i hear it is in this year." She smiled hoping she made a good joke. She then looked away and blushed 'I look like a boy!' she thought, 'you can't tell who I am like this at all!' Chikao always thought it was bad enough that her name was masculine, and now she looked masculine. All tall and in camouflage with short hair. It lowered her self esteem quite significantly.

Charon wasn't quite sure what it was; he saw a look in Chikao that seemed like she was mentally belittling herself. Very gently he cleared his throat, leaving David's side for the first time since their escape, and venturing over to her. "Masculine girls are very beautiful," he said to her softly. "Especially if it's accidental. Your bone structure and voice make it clear you're a gorgeous woman, but the clothes you're wearing make you more beautiful on the inside, since you don't seem to want to flaunt it." He wasn't embarrassed by saying such things, because they were true, and also - well, he just had no interest in women. "What i'm meaning to say is, someone like you, you'll always look gorgeous."

These words make Chikao blush even more. "Thank you.." she muttered She shook her head "We should get moving, they will be back ten fold soon." she said.
"Well then, let's go already!" Sophie huffed, being impatient

Charon nodded, returning to his much more comfortable spot near David. He kept the lights dim, but only dim enough that the shadows would hide them effectively; not so dark that they couldn't see well, however. Despite the predicament, Charon felt kind of good that he had been able to help like he had.

"Fine." Marisia said, nodding. She still hadn't changed her clothing, it was easier for her to move in her own clothes than in the guards. "Trust me, I'll be fine." She gave a reassuring smile to the others. "Let's just get moving so we can get out."
David nodded. "We should defiantly get going." He said. "I don't like the idea of them coming back with weapons better suited to restrain us." He was the carefree idiot of the group. Obviously.

Chikao nodded and she began to run down the stairs, they fell into a long spiral down, such a winding, winding staircase. She felt with her feet, having not put put he guards' shoes, she felt the bolts tin the metal steps, the unnatural feel that had become so familiar to her,s he knew where she was going even in the dim light.
Cautiously, Jerome followed her, holding Sophie in his arms, hoping he would never have to let go of her.
