Rymol flinched as Elias moved in front of him, towards the room. While being grateful that he wouldn't have to peer in and check himself, Rymol didn't like the idea of Elias going ahead to face whatever might be in there alone. Slowly creeping towards the door, behind Elias, Rymol began imagining numerous horrible images and ill fates that will meet them behind this door. 'I really hate not knowing things. What if a huge monster is in there?' Rymol thought to himself. As this thought surfaced, the image of a large, scaled beast of about 8 feet high clouded his mind. Just imagining this horror made Rymol lightheaded and he began losing his balance. He stumbled forward, almost bumping into Elias before he caught himself. 'Jeez. I need to keep it together. Besides, Elias can control water. We should be fine.' Rymol assured himself before following Elias to the door once more.
"Em...?" Rymol asked aloud, to no one in particular. He didn't know why, but as soon as Elias spoke that name a secondary feeling of unease brushed over Rymol. 'Who is Em? Is she violent? I should probably stay away from her.' Rymol thought to himself, sweatdropping as Elias opened the door. "W-wait! Don't just walk right in-..." Rymol tried to warn Elias, but was too late. Shivering, Rymol slowly peered in past Elias. A deep red covered his face as his eyes widened at the scene before him.
'Are we going to be doing things like this? How scary!' Rymol thought to himself, unable to take his eyes off of Reyna and Alex, as he held her in his arms. He didn't even notice that one of the Keepers there was Reyna, who he had met before.
He flinched as Elias suddenly splashed into the tub, laughing his heart out. After realizing that it was only Elias, Rymol noticed something he said. 'There's that name again. Em... Why does it sound so familiar?' Rymol pondered, trying to focus on the name and see if he could think of anything. As his mind slipped into deep thought, his eyes subconsciously trailed over to a figure at the opposite end of the tub. Focusing his eyes through the steam, he could faintly make out white hair that supposedly belonged to a female. He couldn't tell much more than that. It was in that moment that Rymol started to put two and two together. 'Wait... Em? White hair? EMAROSA?!" With an "HEE!" Rymol quickly withdrew himself back behind the door. "So she is here after all... I really can't do this." Rymol said shivering, his mind going back to the dreaded memory of his first chance meeting with the girl.
As his mind trailed off, Elias spoke out to Rymol again.
"Rymol, are you coming in?! Or do we need to drag you?!" Rymol jerked forward at attention to this call, just like a private who was caught goofing off in formation by his superior. 'This is really bad. What should I do? Will he really drag me in there? Should I just go in on my own? Either way I'll be completely at HER mercy. I should take this chance to run away...' Rymol took a deep gulp before deciding his next plan of action. The door to the bathing room slowly cracked open. Peering inside once more, Rymol looked to Elias, making sure not to even look in Emarosa's direction. "C-coming in..." He stuttered as he slowly drew himself in, inch by inch. Despite his attempts to stop, he continued to shudder the entire time.
