Following the others, Mathias had thought of the threat his brother brings to the others. They won't be safe from him much longer as long as he's around. Wanting to leave the others for their own safety, the Charizard was about to tell Bastet that she'd be safer without him but realizing that even if he did leave, they would still be in danger and what if Cinder said was true, then Gabriel would go after them after he's done with him. There was no way out of this. His look shown that he was very worried about the others well being. Maybe they'll be safer without me. I can't risk Gabriel coming after them if what Cinder said is true. No, I know how Gabriel is, even if he did find me alone and infected me, he'd still come after the others. Damn it, what to do? Then Mathias realized what would happen if he ran away. It would have been no better than him trying it back in the past. Even then, Bastet was always able to detect his thoughts.
The Charizard hears Cinder and what she said that made things more of a danger to use the lift. "So what, we try the elevators again? I thought we deemed them unsafe." The ones back on the seventh floor was unsafe, especially the one that was on the opposite side. Then he heard a whirl of the machinery coming to life and activating as something was coming down. There was one still in full working order. "Look at that, its still charged!" Most of the machines had to be charged through Etin's electricity. Looks like their luck is getting better. "Send us to the ground floor!" Etin chants. Mathias gets in and places the box in the corner so that it wouldn't be in the way of the others.
Bastet picked up something with her psychic powers. though it wasn't Mathias' it was something else, it was crying and saying it doesn't want to feed on the living. It just wanted to be left in peace so it can forever be with its trainer in the afterlife. Poor thing, undeath is a curse and it just wants to rest in peace. there's nothing we can do for it. Getting into the elevator, the espeon then shut the undead's thoughts out of her mind. There was nothing they could do for it at this point. Then she thought about Xiao, would he be able to find them? She had no doubt on that but from his own expressions, Bastet would have to say that he's got some other things going on. "Odd that this one still works. At least now we can get back to the first floor to see where Arry's hiding at. Poor kid's probably scared being all alone." She said as she was worried about Arry as well. Then she looks at Etin, she couldn't help but have a cheerful smile on her. "You're really excited Etin. Hmm, you seem to like elevators a lot, they are fun after all when you're riding with friends." Bastet said happily.
Mathias held the door open so that the rest can get in. "This should hold us. Odd though, shouldn't this had lost its power over time?" Bringing up a valid point, it was different from the one Etin had to power. Even then, something felt off. Not in a bad way but enough to make it feel like a mystery to him. Even then, Mathias shrugs his shoulders and doesn't think of it. "We're coming Arry, please be okay."
