"I'm not seeing any bites. Can you help, two would be faster." 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡER3OnRBJFm

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.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurMZCdXFD7
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOlynVnxfK
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. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcogd75EaqM
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTLC7a0bjb

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. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89Z6H45HiH
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJInil9Vdk
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. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQ0ZVar2il

"It's Manager."171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusNSVksiNX

"You may be his Manager, but you are not my Manager." The receptionist says annoyed, her patience running out.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkGbxszLIc
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzzYJoR24z
"Uh, hello? Are you okay?" Asks the young man she's lying on. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLE4Q5LLS8
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcs9DrIeaXS
"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. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbF1sBlwYy

"Not the first time I heard that."171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxCmehuVfs
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRH2UnNouAD
She doesn't say anything, and looks at the exit doors. "I should be going." She says, pushing him out of her path. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IIFSGlQ6M
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UNIZfYi2J
"Oh, now you want to feel me up." He jokes.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEd9oH7FK3

171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7XKjza9o1
"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. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsd2lPseZ6
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPf6xsp1Yz8
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.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVYWENo5Kc
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IlUUAQZ34
"Nothing! She bumped into me!" 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMDUYR5ips
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6bqHNCNXW
"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. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGo1m13kc3
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAbfpleQmO
"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. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7q7cJtojW
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1is1Sg9x0t
"Payton, we need to get you back in bed." Holly urges gently.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncOJ0zLmP9
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFTQQRIWYN
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. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDv7HnCcRqC

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. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bdWPCGc9q
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHziGsXA5LJ
"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. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskzBOUvmhA
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOO9jeunPt
"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.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMA9NTl1ui
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyMqEiTi3E
"Ow! Woah, woah, hey!" He says, trying to defend himself when Payton is pulled off him and thrown to the ground. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiBdzIHPCb

"Let go of me!" She yells. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAxpZm2iFr
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrbTooyIXv
"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.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJe1pQIcBy
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGv85g06h1z
"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.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqd9pF68tH6
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4ZYyLVhva
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. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72siC6cTYH
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZxdjpC0xe
"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.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPX5iV0gO3v
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSNajjhMjz
"I thought we we're leaving!" Says the man at the window, no longer arguing with the receptionist.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWrD5ukKn4
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9O1nmdwTp5
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.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyBmFk2Oc4

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.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFPADBn73C
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8WQeGyjGo
"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.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41HI8w4k9R

171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxMo0fFdbP
"Okay, okay." Holly says, taking Payton into one with Tom's help. They lay her down on the bed, and exit the room, pulling the door shut behind them, the lock enaging. 171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUNE6fAZKz
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXH88NQfstB
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.171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJ9mHPLj9c
