[b]John Teller - MEC - Everyone Else[/b] The echoing sound of a gunshot made John jump in alarm. He looked at Victoria as he rushed to the window of the room, looking outside of the hospital in attempt to see something, but there was nothing. The green grass was calm and there were no walkers in sight. John quickly removed the gun from his holster and moved quickly to exit the room. "You stay here no matter what, do you understand?!" he commanded as he shut the door and locked it from the outside. Once outside he looked in each direction, noticing Farren outside her room. "Get in the room, now!" he said to her uneasily, then moving on to check on Mr. Oswald who seemed to still be asleep. John began to sprint towards the stairs, noticing the sound had come from the first floor rather than the second. He skipped steps as he rushed downward and raised his gun in complete defense. He moved slowly, cautiously through the hall, checking every room. "Where'd the shot come from?" he questioned himself. Because of the emptiness of the hospital, the gunshot had echoed so loudly throughout the entire premise that it was difficult to pinpoint the initial location. Because it was daylight there was enough luminescence to see the surroundings. The security guard was well aware of the complexity of the hospital, he knew every room, every exit, every entry way. Therefore, he used that knowledge to his advantage and moved down the hall towards the back entry way leading to the open garage in the back. John had not seen Buck anywhere and for some reason, hoped the gunshot wasn't meant for the man. "Did walkers get inside?" he also thought to himself. But the facts proved that it had to be some kind of survivor and raider. Buck didn't have a gun so it was obviously not him. Farren, Oswald, and Tori were upstairs so it wasn't them either. But whoever it was, was armed and would prove to be dangerous. John continued down the hall when he suddenly heard footsteps on the other end of the corridor. So with a quick stutter, John forced himself to the wall and awaited the steps to continue. He heard them coming closer and closer and wasn't sure how to proceed. His main goal was to get out of this with no one getting hurt. He didn't want anyone in danger, especially the little boy. For some odd reason, despite not really knowing Dean or his mom, he wanted them to be safe. He had this idea that Dean would be the future of it all. So when everything ends, he'll be the one to rise up and pass on history to a new civilization. Therefore, without desire to fire his weapon, he decided that he'd use the power of intimidation. In a flash, he stepped out into the hallway and pointed his gun at the shadow before him, hidden by the dark effigy of obscurity. "Put the gun down and I will not be forced to shoot you" he commanded, his tone affirmative and strong. He pointed his pistol high and steady, unsure who he was speaking too because this person stood where the sun did not reach. "Whatever you want, we will not give you, so please.........do not do this" he stated, immediately thinkking the person before him was a raider.
