Nightshift 24: Hallway outside entry room

[traitors-smile.livejournal.com]

The giggling and the stinging scent of pepper faded as Gin and Jack changed their route to the second set of stairs near the doctors offices.  It was Gin's first time leading, usually Jack took that job, letting him take up the reasonably safer rear guard.  He kept his flashlight trained on the path ahead of them, his knife in the other hand.  With any luck, they'd be able to move as quickly through the halls as they had their first night.

Susan was happy to get out of the entry room. She realized, as soon as she was out the door, that she had no idea where she was really was. Though, if necessary, she could find her way back to their room.

...like she'd do that willingly.

She kept her flashlight beam down, glancing at Max. "Which way?"

"Think one direction's likely to be more or less nutty than the other?" Max snapped out a retort, following her roommate out into the hall once more. "I'm beginning to wonder what those other patients were talking about. The only weird thing I've seen so far is other patients. Although they certainly qualify."

Sighing, she propped her hands on her hips and looked around. Spotting a stairwell off to their left, she grinned and glanced over at Susan. "Want to see what's upstairs? Maybe that's where these 'monsters' of theirs are hiding."

Max still wasn't so sure they existed, but it was something she wanted to see for herself.

Susan snorted. "I'm hoping they're just crazy," she said. But she turned and headed left, though she waved Max ahead of her. Max seemed much more comfortable being in the lead; it was better, anyway, since if she was in front she wouldn't be getting the glare from the flashlight.
