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. 111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWneF1cg4V

"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. 111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnQiLVjT3n

She doesn't say anything, and looks at the exit doors. "I should be going." She says, pushing him out of her path. 111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1htTy12d36
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0fXYTvrFv

"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. 111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJqpUSnxqu

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.111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKeteocWvC

"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. 111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqigXskolNf
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgvwy1Q1mh

"Payton, we need to get you back in bed." Holly urges gently.111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcBSIDNpRB
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWX5vU8RJq
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. 111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz69bMdJlX

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. 111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTelTG5Glo
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFHopS57pM
"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. 111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXdKmKRtxI

111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLzHC51gO1
"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.111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlCW9FMjc0
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPW8Sn7AbIs
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. 111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYk7oKnFZy
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTsuKeT5gZ

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.111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6pToT0INQ

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.111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4B4xlOSBf
