148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtc7xxqpkF8
"I'm not seeing any bites. Can you help, two would be faster." 148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUBz19rJoE

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. 148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAkjbhbisc
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVT4MmCn7uW
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. 148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwcTEMiCvg

"It's Manager."148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8wLCqIO8E

"You may be his Manager, but you are not my Manager." The receptionist says annoyed, her patience running out.148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfFDoUuiLA

"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. 148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6805lX2Il

She doesn't say anything, and looks at the exit doors. "I should be going." She says, pushing him out of her path. 148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqVX8xS75P
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbfNC8PFYF
"Oh, now you want to feel me up." He jokes.148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZTBBXr6Cx

"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. 148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBl5VI53Z6

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.148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNRv9jZIhY
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBXxMQrK6F
"Nothing! She bumped into me!" 148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGIuBe0tuE
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5V8emprZ3
"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. 148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkLg2DSAPg
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuure5NO3v

"Payton, we need to get you back in bed." Holly urges gently.148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJBVmiTRT0
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUmpmQfxd1
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. 148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStzUBMPzZp

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. 148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBNSo44NxC
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIk9IH9BMz
"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. 148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVFaKFD16d
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡei23yQQfy6
"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.148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9JfutLhvM
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5ACHDQa4Y

"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.148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4yaDCdntZ
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlmD6wSBEN
"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.148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBLqF5npWz
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLWnSp3AET
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. 148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwavTDbZP1
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp80rqGkCFn
"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.148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwMqx1aEXy

"I thought we we're leaving!" Says the man at the window, no longer arguing with the receptionist.148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWnGUeIiGW
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNA6T8AOhCr
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.148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1bLcHQtc2

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.148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEyNVBMCOi
