(DEVELOPMEEEEEEEEEEENNNT!!! Just a heads up, things are probably gonna be a little confusing in this chapter and kind of app over the place. But other than that thank you all for over 24k reads! It means a lot that people like this story and I'm doing my best to get back into full swing.)
Yep, there I was back in the hallway. I was still in my new outfit, but in its casual form. I found it very strange. Not only had it been ages since I saw this place, but I normally end up here when I sleep. The darkness seemed to float around me, it wasnt eerie or scary though. It was just saying hi. I held out my arms to let the dark swirl around for a moment.
Y/n: "Hehe...miss me buddy?"
The lack of response spoke volumes to me. The darkness speaks in it's own subtle ways.
"Yeah...havin her around has been great hasnt it?"
The silent banter was welcome. Most people would think I'd hate finding myself here, but the dark here was an old, old friend. I ain't gonna just abandon it.
"What's up pal? Why'd you wanna see me?"
...
"Friends of mine?"
...
"A spot?"
I was a little confused but I think I understood what it meant. Somebody wants to speak to me, and my good ol pal here picked out a place for us to do just that. I looked back down the hall for a moment and could see Ruby's shining silver figure waiting.
"Alright but I gotta try and be quick, I'm in the middle of something with rosebud over there. Where am I needed?"
I heard a shift of the air and looked behind me to see a furnished dark oak door waiting for me to head through. Always one for the theatrics...
"Alright I'll head on through. Keep an eye on her for me okay?"
Recieving my silent promise, I walked over and opened the door with a loud squeak. And I gotta say, wasnt expecting this combo.
Through the door was a massive outdoor lounge sort of area. It was in the middle of a large grassy clearing, with tall rich oak trees surrounding. It was very much night, and off to my right was what appeared to be an outdoor bar, stocked up too.

The whole thing was lit up by decorative lights strewn about the place, but that wasnt the most eye catching thing there.
Just ahead of me, and far away enough from the little bar so that the dim lights didnt pollute the area, was a large outdoor fire pit surrounded by several chairs, one of which was occupied. The whole thing rested in the grass to feel as natural as possible.
