“What the fuck.” 

Caelea had very much not meant to kill the nurse, only to immobilise her with a lot of air blasts. So when she stabbed her neck with a pair of scissors… well it was gruesome to say the very least, and also saddening. Clearly the nurse had been possessed or something. She didn’t deserve to die.

Forcing herself to look away, Caelea headed over to Zoe and Justin. She didn’t particularly know the two – she vaguely recognised Zoe from the camping trip (god, how long ago that had been). Justin had been around the whole time but they’d never talked. But they all had to stick together in this. Cael was happy to force herself to work with other people.

“I agree with finding the others and getting out of here. Or at least figuring out what the fuck’s happened since we went under.”

It was far too quiet for Tuyen’s liking, but she followed Rita down the corridor nonetheless. She hugged the wall too – there was nothing wrong with being too cautious. Caution was what would get them out alive. Especially when it was her and Rita, who between them didn’t exactly have powers that could protect them.

Then someone else came out of the one of the wards. Far taller than the two, and certainly more intimidating, Tuyen recognised him somewhat. Not enough to put a name to the face. But obviously he knew Rita, and Rita knew him.

His smile as he introduced himself creeped Tuyen out a little, and it only took a little bit of thought to tell that it was fake. Billy’s words didn’t really register with her as his face morphed – becoming something more disturbing and less real, something that could all too easily kill them. In the back of the mind she knew that this wasn’t really that he hadn’t turned into some kind of monster from her imagination.

That didn’t stop the fear, the panic that started pumping through her veins again. 

She understood why Rita shouted to run, the balled up sheet thrown in Billy’s face giving Tuyen enough energy to actually move. 

“Rita, wait!” She took off after Rita – not wanting to be left behind. The panic stopped her from paying attention to where they were going just concentrating on running and following. 

Their indiscriminate running brought them right to the lobby and Tuyen spotted other people – real people, some of whom she recognised. “Rita, stop, we’ve found some of the others.”

She’d managed to catch up with Rita as they ran, close enough to speak quietly and hoping the other girl would listen and not continue running. It didn’t stop the panic and adrenaline that was running through her, but she tried to ignore it – the last thing she needed was another panic attack.

There were at least four other people in the lobby. Justin was the only one that she knew. She was glad that he was alive, she had hardly seen him since everything went to shit. She recognised Penny but wasn’t sure of the other two. 

She made no move to talk to any of them, sticking with Rita and trying to ignore the dead bodies. Seeing more people was a relief (signs of a fight and all) but she knew she couldn’t keep up the illusion of not panicking out of her mind if she actually talked. So she’d just listen.
