Rhodes didn't hear anything from anyone on the floor. Moreover, instead of only one red bulb, every light cast a screen of blood on his vision. He walked inside and looked around. "Killian, can you see this? What's happening on the fifth floor? I was just here."
"It's reacting to demon presence." Killian, in his gentleman transmogrification, showed up beside Rhodes. He kept his body suspended as if prepared to defend Rhodes from anything.
"Demon presence? Don't tell me the gateway to responding to me. It's too delayed of a reaction." Rhodes gritted his teeth and caught a small figure huddling under the vase's display table. The doctor stepped closer and kneeled beside it. He smiled at the hidden ghost child. "Hey, Lizzy. Can you tell me what happened here?"
"I don't know. I was only playing with the lights when…" Lizzy sniffed and vanished. Rhodes looked around to find her, but the girl was already gone. Even her spectral energy faded soon enough.
