A subtle silence settled over the house.
Raiden stood before the torture room—the same one where Speed had been kept when he first arrived. Ash rested on his shoulder as he stared at the door.
Soul's aura was overwhelming. The moment she entered the house, almost the entire downstairs was covered in her dark aura. Though everyone else could see perfectly fine, Raiden could barely see anything since he and Ash were the only ones who could see auras.
As it turned out, her aura could only be partially contained in a dark room, though there were still leaks seeping out. So he'd placed her in the torture room, but when she woke, all she could do was cry.
Raiden had brought her into this situation, and he was determined to fix it properly without letting her retreat back to her scared nature.
He took a deep breath as he stood before the door. The moment he opened it, some of her aura billowed into the house like smoke.
