Van's eyes were knotted as his eyes remained closed. They were ordered not to have them open before they could pass through the thick wall of cloud that separated the Deadzone from the Darkzone. It also wasn't helping that Adia was currently gripping his arm, almost to the point that he swore it was bleeding. She was not talking to her earlier because of their little argument, but now that they were in the middle of the dark cloud, she hasn't even let go of Van's arm for about 3 seconds now.
The cloud was not really toxic whatsoever, there wasn't even any unusual feeling, just a little bit of warmth and a somewhat heavy feeling flowing through them, but nothing Van had not felt before. It reminded him of the wind skill that Angela used on him during his short graduation match.
