Payton's strapped to a wheelchair, going in and out of consciousness. Vaguley aware of what's going on, she can see the doctor from before going through her backpack. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAh1ZVZjN8I4
141Please respect copyright.PENANARA8miGOptA
She's in a standard hospital ER looking type room. "T-that's mine." 141Please respect copyright.PENANAXVYYWDcZTB
141Please respect copyright.PENANATlqBOEbLOx
The doctors looks up and takes a seat in a computer chair, wheeling it over closer to Payton a little.141Please respect copyright.PENANAK7AE5n2O3d
141Please respect copyright.PENANAR8pQYoxcMX
"Hello, Payton. I'm Doctor Holly. Do you remember how you got here?"141Please respect copyright.PENANAh21cULoi50
141Please respect copyright.PENANAlfENVTkx0p
Payton's trying to think, but she feels so groggy. "You seem pretty tired. Didn't sleep well last night? Got up early this morning?"141Please respect copyright.PENANAnzgw2vuupd
141Please respect copyright.PENANATOckSLASHe
Payton doesn't respond. "Okay, well, I'm just going to fill out some paperwork now that I've found your ID card-"141Please respect copyright.PENANAnhsySfnqT4
141Please respect copyright.PENANAwD79wrASEH

141Please respect copyright.PENANAb7Zxwn89yE
"Hey, Holly!" Says one of her colleagues from earlier, the one with glasses. "Yes, Tom?" She begins, the door hitting the chair with Payton's backpack, sending it flying. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAPwJksLCnOq
141Please respect copyright.PENANAiWMawBAr7j
"Sorry, sorry!"141Please respect copyright.PENANAq0tIHolEqY
141Please respect copyright.PENANAk62GGNujiI
"Be more careful. These rooms are cramped." She lectures him. Tom goes and picks up the bag, a bright orange pill container rolling out, showing the label.141Please respect copyright.PENANA9e4wsrMzp7
141Please respect copyright.PENANA7IWUqySfM2
They both eye in and mouths drop open. "Have you inspected her for bites yet?" He asks. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAPMN9tStExX
141Please respect copyright.PENANA6cqzdH7N1K
"No."141Please respect copyright.PENANANZx8XxmzdF
141Please respect copyright.PENANAQnMBYQdl8b
"Well, do it now!" He yells at her. "Okay, Payton. I'm just going to inspect your limbs, okay?" Holly says gently, approaching Payton as Tom picks up the container, seeing it's almost empty. 141Please respect copyright.PENANARK6P911vGS
141Please respect copyright.PENANA0J9FiC3VUX
"I'm not seeing any bites. Can you help, two would be faster." 141Please respect copyright.PENANARb7uSWYxxH
141Please respect copyright.PENANA8w3JsH2gMA
And Tom goes over and helps, dropping the container on the floor. When they're satisfied they're is no bites, they call for assistance.141Please respect copyright.PENANAe2VPRm8hHD
141Please respect copyright.PENANA929EnXqiY3
Payton feels sick and dizzy, falling unconsciousness harder. When she opens her eyes, waking up again. 141Please respect copyright.PENANASWZPF6ppFO
141Please respect copyright.PENANAonzITV9BJ0
She's lying on a bed in the same room, monitor on her finger and an IV in her arm. Her work uniform is gone, replaced by hospital clothing over her under clothing. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAp8MVrg5jhQ
141Please respect copyright.PENANACy3ve1EbQ9

141Please respect copyright.PENANA1J16E7tmmS

141Please respect copyright.PENANA4JXLeMMF5h
"Payton, you might need a diffrent medication and dosage if that's the case. It's something we can discuss more and work on. I'm just wondering, are you in therapy at all?"141Please respect copyright.PENANAIjY3uNtkEU
141Please respect copyright.PENANARwKF55T6yi
She shakes her head no. "No? Why is that? Don't think it would work? Scared to try?"141Please respect copyright.PENANA6Hq9wlxHgm

141Please respect copyright.PENANApHk9EUnyQh
"That's really an outdated term, and I don't like to use it when talking with my patients.

141Please respect copyright.PENANAlG8C2ogJXI
She sighs. "I should proably tell you the truth, I don't want to scare you, Payton, but-" Holly moves her chair closer to Payton.141Please respect copyright.PENANAzCMRNaLt5c
141Please respect copyright.PENANARGqzgWxfd6
"You we're found by Fire and Police in Crest-Port in the middle of a crisis zone. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAVlYER52mFS

"Then what happened?!"141Please respect copyright.PENANAvxBgTEZTZ1
141Please respect copyright.PENANAzjxwnalOlv
"Well, Payton-" Holly says, taking Payton's hand in hers, Payton pulling it away quickly. "No! I don't know where it has been! There's proably germs, this bed has germs, and these clothes!"141Please respect copyright.PENANADAhqrBSfPf
141Please respect copyright.PENANAitD0sEVegH
"I promise you this room is cleaned and steralized between patients, and the clothes are brand new, fresh out the sealed bag. And I washed my hands, wore new gloves from the box. New scrubs too."141Please respect copyright.PENANAAHH0Q30DL7
141Please respect copyright.PENANAuchL0m40bJ

141Please respect copyright.PENANAH5dr2IbNAd
And Dr Holly leaves the room. When she's she's gone, Payton stands and slips out the room, finding the door is unlocked. She tries to walk the opposite direction with confidence, and no one seems to pay any attention to her thankfully.141Please respect copyright.PENANAJULLvfBYgb
141Please respect copyright.PENANAP8QDnnwUwD
She sees a door read 'Exit' and sees it leads out to a waiting room, exit doors to the street beyond it. This will be easy. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAPrNXSnSilT
141Please respect copyright.PENANA62Gae1mkwG
She presses on the door turning to leave when she hears the sound of a flatline, people running to a room. She looks over her shoulder. 141Please respect copyright.PENANA65ZHPYMR7p
141Please respect copyright.PENANAz90SffufZ4
Karl. They're pumping on his chest, he was having a heart attack. He was in the street before with her, and... Benji. A little boy, he broke his skate board over... someone's head to save them. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAqpabIY9jZG
141Please respect copyright.PENANABwTPKdynDq
It doesn't really make sense. Where are her colleagues from the bakery if her and Karl is here. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAGzG5YIWQ8G
141Please respect copyright.PENANAjB3ibLGOoZ
"Payton?" Says a voice. She looks the other way seeing Tom, he is one of Holly's colleagues. She remembers, he knocked her bag over, it's how they discovered her meds.141Please respect copyright.PENANAUkButDyzV6
141Please respect copyright.PENANAKKLHPjQjQb
"Payton, I'm Dr Tom. Can you come back towards me, please?" He gestures, holding a hand out.141Please respect copyright.PENANAgnB2hRkCBL
141Please respect copyright.PENANA3edkdCNo7Y
She pushes open the exit door infront of her to the waiting room. "Shit! Holly!" Tom screams, running back the way he came. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAVJmGT1e2MR
141Please respect copyright.PENANAXLZA87qUPA
She runs into the waiting room, alot more noise out here than in the ER, more colored lights, the TV blares.141Please respect copyright.PENANA9p0iywGpKU

She looks around herself in a panic, people fill the room almost to the brim, some are coughing, some are mildly covered in blood, clothes torn. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAAuNseRTOQU
141Please respect copyright.PENANA550EA9lkB9
She steps back, bumping into someone and falls to the ground, knocking them over. She realizes she's landed on a young man, dark skin, long hair and deep brown eyes. His wearing scrubs like her. "We'll be going now." Says an older man next to them, dressed in a flashy suit, short blonde hair and gold glasses in the shape of a star. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAAoe9P2OoWe

141Please respect copyright.PENANA7NnPl2jizU
"I'm so sorry!" Payton panics, standing up. She reaches a hand out for him to take, but then quickly withdraws it. He huffs, having to help himself up. "No harm done, I guess." He mumbles, looking her over. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAsybXxCExrJ

She falls against the 2nd exit door, and pushes down on the handle madly, it not budging. "The fuck?" The young man her age roughly says. Now everyone's eyes on her. "What did you do, Gabriel?" The Manager Man asks.141Please respect copyright.PENANATA7MRgTzWd
141Please respect copyright.PENANAwXpiXgnUfl
"Nothing! She bumped into me!" 141Please respect copyright.PENANAcWS3FYfFwK
141Please respect copyright.PENANAg14xtBHdj6
"Umm..." The receptionist says, poking her head out a bit. Payton stands up, madly trying the handle again when the door leading back to the ER flys open, Holly, Tom and some other staff file out. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAQHCwQ8MtAj
141Please respect copyright.PENANA6a4KSKGN0b

"Payton, we need to get you back in bed." Holly urges gently.141Please respect copyright.PENANA67CiMjA6zh
141Please respect copyright.PENANAPzAq2yfJ66
Payton hears screaming coming from the TV, and looks up, grainy footage. Upturned cars, smashed windows, police cars driving up to a scene, a person slobbering, running around madly, chewing a front like emergency worker in half, censored blood spewing everywhere. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAZn5Mk7b4Ot

She can't takes her eyes off it, breathing rapid till the TV goes off, the receptionist aiming the remote at it. "Sorry, everyone!" She calls out appolgizing. Holly cups her hand over her own mouth. "So much for pre-warning." Tom says next to her. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAYN9t3wPRb8
141Please respect copyright.PENANALfgx3NHAGx
"Payton-" Holly begins, just as Payton stands up, preparing to run around the other side of the room when she feels someone take her arm pulling her back who isn't one of the staff. It's the man she crashed into it. 141Please respect copyright.PENANALLRKaljh6Y
141Please respect copyright.PENANAnvDdJQxZmd
"Get your grubby hands off me! I don't know where they have been!" She yells at him, smacking him in the shoulder and face.141Please respect copyright.PENANAsb5UEeSmgO
141Please respect copyright.PENANA7bi0leKGcL

"Let go of me!" She yells. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAcAFGx6Aemv

"What do we do, what do we do?!" Says Tom. "I don't know, I don't know!" Holly responds, a man in a navy suit appearing behind them and the nurses. He clears his throat.141Please respect copyright.PENANA1dGHIGoeEz
141Please respect copyright.PENANA9qo8Z5vI4D
"Hi, Director!" Tom smiles awkardly. "Well, this undoes us pumping her stomach. Payton, I'm really sorry." Holly says, pulling out a needle and pushing it into Payton's shoulder.141Please respect copyright.PENANAs0JnPWFkqs
141Please respect copyright.PENANALrwVwWuLXo
She lets out a scream, fighting more till her movements slow down and they gently hoist her up onto her feet. She's passing out, not able to work so they end up dragging her and head back into the ER with her, the hospital director walking away. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAi2dW70YG1u
141Please respect copyright.PENANA3YYC1iuoXa
"Uh, do you want to come with me, Gabriel?" A doctor asks, "I'm Dr Reed. She... did a good number on your face." Says a doctor, having Gabriel that Payton just hurt come with him.141Please respect copyright.PENANAxC5wNuV8DW

"I thought we we're leaving!" Says the man at the window, no longer arguing with the receptionist.141Please respect copyright.PENANAf4ewkHXhPG
141Please respect copyright.PENANA7jl16TCCtj
The door to the ER closes. "Sir, take a magazine and sit." The receptionist says, turning away from the window, picking up the desk phone next to her.141Please respect copyright.PENANA73q8MXwVI0

141Please respect copyright.PENANAVOq2RGykJH

Holly walks over to the phone on the wall, dialing. "Hello? Admission, please. Yes, I'll hold. Hi, this is Doctor Holly, ER floor. Is there any beds avaible? No? Any of end of day discharges scheduled?" She looks to Tom and he shrugs awkwardly, walking away.141Please respect copyright.PENANAJKIHw67LQZ
