[Xion hears him, looks around frantically for a glimpse of Axel or... had there been another person? She hadn't paid close enough attention to the sounds to be sure-
The faintest of whispers, a brush against the back of her hand. Xion jumps, looks around, sees no one.]
Axel?
[Except she can't see him, and with as angry as he was he wouldn't go around doing the whole 'tap on the shoulder than run to the other side' trick.]
Wh-who's there?
[This is wrong. This is bad. She has to get out of here. There's an object glowing nearby, and the faint light of the stairs in the distance.
She doesn't know what to trust.
Another brush, against her shoulder, some more whispers. Letting out a quiet noise Xion heads for the glowing object, picks it up, sees the writing and reads it. A moment, later, she drops the flashlight like a hot coal, disturbing another series of whispers and a ghost of sensation against the back of her scalp.]
G-go to the stairs. Don't... don't do anything, just go to them!
