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. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLS4Bt5wGY
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxq92eDWXg
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. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioXahVMK2s

"It's Manager."131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfWtEeqs94
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZFDgJefGR
"You may be his Manager, but you are not my Manager." The receptionist says annoyed, her patience running out.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFZEJ2awU8
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfYYtvwUjU
"Uh, hello? Are you okay?" Asks the young man she's lying on. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnHqpEO7Hx
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXAWFCoXGN
"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. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtYj7dwiXm
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGklaqkegn

"Not the first time I heard that."131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsleNJAhWo
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0J54jW4d5g
She doesn't say anything, and looks at the exit doors. "I should be going." She says, pushing him out of her path. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJSQnGRKeM
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzsyMqVEJI
"Oh, now you want to feel me up." He jokes.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuDxGPDTBw

131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqP51oIckm
"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. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4jnQ6rva8
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLP1S6snOEk
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.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGz6PAsjf9
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTXlQw51cY
"Nothing! She bumped into me!" 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSytzVDcae
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPK7zHR5MV
"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. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqsfX9oVJg
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKitIdP8ggz
"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. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcfcLdssS2
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOtVmY40d2
"Payton, we need to get you back in bed." Holly urges gently.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TibwV5q3l
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkR1J3trYgL
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. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7jgIAqZoP

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. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiTMBSvtwQ
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJcIZcpHH2
"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. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREmYXLkFDb
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPj3QvazSi
"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.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAn09jOnyV
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgafSbJhYcu
"Ow! Woah, woah, hey!" He says, trying to defend himself when Payton is pulled off him and thrown to the ground. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBnffl7yyw

"Let go of me!" She yells. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90F1o5GGax
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOBcH9r5Hp
"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.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGOpJoTDKK
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHpImXQJHM
"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.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWd1Fcx9Mj
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCl2ZC0KTh
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. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElbjJ8AlCl
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeZefZjXsA
"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.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNTgMYAmY6
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrKbr86kRs
"I thought we we're leaving!" Says the man at the window, no longer arguing with the receptionist.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPK1bn49lbB
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYCAUmnakF
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.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgswM8syts5

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.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3qTduVdkk
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkgsyUwb1M
"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.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWWjeWgWf9

131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA97oDEskm0
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.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pB0kfjPAG
