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. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2l3BmafTz4
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhDIicH9Za
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. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmO35QOmHd

"It's Manager."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPEn4QuURg

"You may be his Manager, but you are not my Manager." The receptionist says annoyed, her patience running out.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8ScUMv2sR

"Uh, hello? Are you okay?" Asks the young man she's lying on. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVHhdV4Ee0
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cyQYRVEmq
"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. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7sZJsWgiG
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamzc7IqOqX

"Not the first time I heard that."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbPRFd0vTe
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DnjfF1h12
She doesn't say anything, and looks at the exit doors. "I should be going." She says, pushing him out of her path. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygNx1Kyhrx
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MBuoh2Kkm
"Oh, now you want to feel me up." He jokes.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTJ3XWyWfe

214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZPaqNQlgI
"Do you even know who I am?" He asks. She ignores him. "Hey, wait a minute!" He begs, pulling her arm. She lets out a terrified scream, one his never heard before. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfZYQ9G2et
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YIzHSv2Nu
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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlMFibyuE1
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZsN1rEo0q
"Nothing! She bumped into me!" 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9flz9KwWT
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLnumWmIBv
"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. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlnnALudtS
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqk3bJWagG
"I'm sorry everyone, we we're looking for her. I caution you to look away as this may make some of your uncomfortable and/or upset anyone." Tom appolgizes. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6RWl6w5SB

"Payton, we need to get you back in bed." Holly urges gently.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrWSWRJ4yc
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8s16QKaKw
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. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxas99urgu4

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. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRH7sCYBbs
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwtKqSunZl
"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. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbIoaJAxbr
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacLRV5xqxI
"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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mL7DP3mP5
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPC9nYHdh5

"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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7n5jm59Ro
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXvnk0pX1u
"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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXZoXMr1wK
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOL1PQkhqw
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. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLaRnftL3y
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBpoJ0LCiD
"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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9Zgwb3tU6
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgF81moh6R9
"I thought we we're leaving!" Says the man at the window, no longer arguing with the receptionist.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWascKzDbAs
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1PQbZZCQR
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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTHRx75Z6U

With an unconsciousness patient, and now a injured one, it's a mess for the staff to work out. "Holly, she belongs in Psych." Argues Tom. "You don't think I don't know that?" Holly responds.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZo6ltzw0a
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9UNKWttM3
"Hey, we need the room she was in now for Mr Superstar here." Dr Reed says, Gabriel standing beside here. "Please don't call me that." Gabriel whispers.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKZG8mzHdq

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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZuImlBcqQ
