(( Loolwhut, t'is okay~~~ =3 ))

Light nodded, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Aoi." He smiled then held up his left arm, "My name is Light. Though I'm afraid I don't know my bracelet number...for I am blind." Light heard the whispering of the other children, Blind? Is he really...? Light then heard one of the voices raise up louder, "Hey, your bracelet number is [2], if you really wanted to know..." He said in a nervous tone, Light nodded, "Thank you."

Akane blinked after Light was done, she tentatively held up her arm, "Uhm...Mine name is Akane...and I'm number five..." She then held onto Aoi's arm nervously, she didn't like speaking up in front of other people...Akane never did.

[Sharubii]

"You're... blind?"

Despite having suspected it, what with Light having had his eyes closed for so long, the confirmation of the notion shocked Aoi. "Then... how did... how did you...?" He pointed up the stairs, but quickly realized that it would be ineffectual to indicate what he was talking about like that. "How did you get up and down those stairs so easily?" And... how will you be able to 'play' this Nonary Game?

He didn't voice his thoughts.

After he asked his question, he vaguely heard Akane introduce herself, then the other kids. He didn't pay much attention beyond hearing that a girl was here named Nona, with a bracelet number of... nine, if he'd heard right. He barely heard them, though, as he focused his attention on the blind boy.

Light looked at Aoi through his closed eyes, and sighed, shaking his head, "If you've been blind for as long as I have... You learn some things, I guess," He smirked, "But if you're really wanting to know, I can gladly explain it. Though, I'd probably just waste the time we have to actually get out of here," He scratched his head, "How long did that man say...? Nine hours?"

Akane just blinked, listening to Light and Aoi talk.

[Sharubii]

"Yeah," Aoi said with a nod of his head, even though he now knew that Light couldn't see it. "Nine hours." He turned to look at the two numbered doors in front of him, trying to keep from showing the fear that clenched his heart. He could ask Light about his blindness later. For now...

"What do we do?" He turned his head to sweep his gaze over the group. "Do what the psycho says and play this Nonary Game, or try to find a different way out?"

[Cinderfall129]

Light kept his mouth shut while Aoi talked, waiting for the other children to decide.

Akane blinked, and spoke up quietly, "Um...I think we should...I really don't think there's any other way out...but, maybe we should check, I don't know..." Akane was indecisive on what they should do, probably like the other kids, but she felt that she needed to throw a suggestion out there.

[Sharubii]

Aoi sighed heavily and massaged his temples with one hand. He didn't want to bash on his sister, but...

"Really?"

He let his hand drop to his side and glared at everybody in the room. He felt guilty for directly attacking Akane, but the indecisiveness was getting on his nerves. "That Hongou guy said that we have nine hours to escape, and you all just stand here doing nothing? What the hell is wrong with you, huh?!" His lips turned down into a sour frown, and he continued. "Do you think that we can get out of here alive if we all leave the damn thinking to somebody else? If we all do that, then who's going to be left to give commands, huh? Tell me!"

[Cinderfall129]

"Well,"" Light stepped forward, toward Aoi's voice, "If you want my opinion, I say we go through the doors. We really don't have any other choice, do we? Unless you want to die." He snorted.

Akane shrunk back at Aoi's sudden outburst, she agreed with him, of course.
