[Center]Ana, City A [/center]

Ana smiled and accepted the towel she was handed as the shoot wrapped up. Her acting career had taken off years ago, but she still got sweaty under the lighting rigs. Just one of the prices for fame, she supposed. As she finished wiping the moisture from her face, her manager showed up wringing his hands nervously. 

"I know that look." Ana said, gently poking at her sometimes boss/sometimes friend. "Something's happened, and you want a favor from me. Go on, I'm listening."

Instead of saying anything out loud, the slightly taller man showed her the tablet he had tucked under his arm. It took the starlet a few moments to grasp the news report, but as soon as she did her hands flew to her face in shock.

"Oh god, all those people! Of course I'll help, whatever you think I can do for them."

----

And that's how Ana found herself standing in the lobby of a bustling hospital, shifting her weight from foot to foot. Everyone around her looked so busy, she didn't know what to do.

[I]Is this really alright? I want to help, but I don't want to get in the way.[/i]

Steeling her nerves, Ana walked up to the reception desk and gave her brightest smile. The woman at the desk looked her over and shook her head, pointing to one of the very few empty chairs in the room.

"I'm sorry, but you aren't critical. Take a seat and we'll get to you when we can."

Ana almost took the seet, despite not being here for treatment. "No, I'm not here for that. I wanted to lend a hand. I have some basic medical training I took for a role once."

Looking the actress over again, recognition suddenly dawned on the overworked orderly. "You're- yes, I'm sure we could find a use for an extra set of hands. Wait right here, I'll call a nurse to escort you. Just be careful, one of the patients is especially hard to handle."

"Hard to handle?" Ana asked, curious now that she was sure to be helping people.

"Yes, I hear she's a hero. Got hurt in the fighting. You won't be dealing with someone that dangerous though."

Ana tensed up just a little as a nurse came to lead her away. There were heroes here. That could be bad for her. Still, she was wearing her public face, nobody should be able to recognize her.

Right?
