Nightshift 25: Greenhouse

[Specifically the area OUTSIDE the Greenhouse...]

( From here)

"If at first you don't succeed," said the Fable to himself as he strode into the greenhouse area, "...destroy all evidence of ever trying. Then try again."

Well, having destroyed the nurse, Jack was ready to give leaving this institution another shot. The walls didn't seem too bad, especially not to one as himself with climbing experience. Still, the wounds to the chest and arm were not going to help him in this regard. He sighed.

"Why didn't I just think to come here first?"

Oh, well. So long as he bit back the pain and didn't try to climb TOO fast, he'd make it over. He'd climbed beanstalks before; anything that could be climbed, he could master because that was one of his "skills".

...a stupid skill, he acknowledged, but it was going to get him out of this place, wasn't it? Heading to the perimeter, he swept his flashlight over the brick walls, looking for possible footholds and the best path over.
