>>5177407You throw yourself back into the crisscrossing halls of the medical ward, the place was eerily empty. It was even a little spooky. But you pushed the superstitious thoughts aside. But then you heard it, from up ahead. Something rattled, maybe a hospital cart. You froze, worried it might be someone you could get into trouble with. Crouching the best you could, you make your way down the dimly lit corridor. Moving from the piece of furniture to equipment until you reached closer to the noise. You could hear a low beep, it echoed down the way. Crouching at a corner you heard shuffling, almost like the rustle of paper. It was coming from your right side.
You decide to peek around the corner. The noise came again, and you moved quickly leaning around the corner. As you move a black shade does the same, moving around the corner just as quickly as you did. You couldn't react in time. Bumping your head into whatever it was. The sudden movement threw you off balance, your legs surprisingly gave out without resisting. You flop to the ground, unobscured in the hallway. As your eyes clear you make out a crouched person watching you with wide eyes. The person wore a Balaclava and was dressed in all black. "Fucking leg it." You heard a voice whisper from down the way as another person in similar clothes stood up further back and turned tail. The voice was familiar, but the echo and low volume made it vague.
"Dimitri, Shut the fuck up!" The shocked person spoke loudly and clearly. A voice you recognize. It was Katerina. The Duchess seemed pretty shocked to see you, she quickly rushed over. Hands out as she tried to help you up from the ground. "Morty? What are you doing out of bed?" Another person stood up, one who had been crouching behind Kat, the girl pulled off her Balaclava. You recognize Lucy, Anthony's lady friend. Dimitri had stopped running and was jogging his way back over. Rolling his own up as he arrives, you sit there a little dazed and so you offer up a simple greeting. "Howdy!" Kat helps you to your feet. "What are you doing here?" You mumble out, suddenly feeling weak around the others. You were far from mentally prepared to talk with them."We came to check on you guys." We haven't been told much information. "What are you doing creeping around so late anyway?" The girl asked, hands migrating to her hips as she took her own mask off. She was sounding a little annoyed.
