31 || Everything is Empty
*This is an important alert for all doctors and staff.Tim's room is currently empty. The door is standing open and the bed is in pieces, pulled apart in order to pry the electric keypad off the wall and open the door

Also he is now going shitshitshitshitshit because not only was this a high-security patient, but his own high security patient, and he should've been keeping a closer eye. Yes, he's been busy with other people and avoiding Dr. Thurston Olivier, but he should've been keeping a closer goddamn eye. First he makes sure that J's still there and not horribly murdered or anything. Then he gets on the comm system, locking it to staff and doctors. ]
This is Dr Kralie. A patient's broken out of his room in the high security wing and he's loose in the hospital. He's suffering from DID, but if you find him he's... he'll probably answer to Markus. He's violent, but he's injured - broken ribs - so he shouldn't be too strong...
[ The torn apart bed says otherwise. So does the ripped out keypad. ]
...He shouldn't be, but don't try and take him on by yourself. Just try and restrain him, and call me.
And... and we need a cleaner up here.
[ He's managed to sound fairly ( ... )

But for now he's just gonna look at you through the camera in the pharmacy cage and growl. Then tear the camera off the wall.
Btw, all that blood in the background, it's far too much to be from one person. It may be more than TWO people.*

Calm down, Philip, you're overworked, that's all. You just need a little more rest and--
[ "This is Dr Kralie. A patient's broken out of his room in the high security wing and he's loose in the hospital." ]
Oh for fuck's sake.
[ Moments later he arrives at the source of the transmission. ]
What happened? Who is it?

Markus.
[ Marvel at Alex's ability to sound like a robot in times of stress. ]
He got in the pharmacy cage. Shit.

You may be short a few interns.*

We should...
...go.
[ He is not very specific as to whether 'to the pharmacy cage' or 'very, very far away' is the direction he prefers. ]

Shit.
[ Yes, thank you, Alex, but you've already made that point. ]
...You're all about tranquillisers and stuff, right? I'll need some and I won't be getting them out of the cage.

The front of the pharmacy cage has been bashed in with a chair, the pieces of the poor defenseless chair now scattered around. Pill bottles are EVERYWHERE. He's ripped apart every drawer and cupboard to find what he was looking for. The empty bottle of unlabeled pills is now among the wreckage.
He's ripped out the cameras along most of the wall but the one still broadcasting just shows a spreading pool of blood. Panic all you like but it'll be a relief to know that he hasn't actually killed anyone, just destroyed the hospitals blood supply. Some of which he's carrying around for more artistic masterpieces. It's not out of the kindness of his heart. He just hasn't come across anyone to messily eviscerate. That could change at any moment.*

One should do, hopefully, but...
[ He trails off, turning away from Alex as he considers the situation. ]
{ Hey, remember viscae somnus? That was some good stuff. }
Ah...
[ He turns back to Alex. ]
No, I'm afraid I've never heard of that one.
...What do we do now?

[ Alex feels like he blinked and missed part of the conversation. Which he did, but in a more literal sense than he knows. ]
The type doesn't matter, it just needs to be strong and fast and not interact dangerously with [ and here he reels off the name of whatever sedative Tim was tripping on earlier. ]

A giant 0perator symbol has been drawn in blood on the door leading to the doctors offices. It's still recognizible now, but soon the blood will begin to drip and run obscuring the message below it:
LEAD ME
*Meanwhile, back in the high security section, Masky has pried the key pad to J's room off the wall and is busily messing with all the wires.*

Oh, ah, no, they are both the same, I'm just not sure how much he needs to...
[ He trails off and offers the two injectors to Alex. ]
Are you going to...? By yourself?
Reply
If he finds out who let his patient out of bed he is going to shank a bitch. ]
He'll recognise me. [ And the possibility that Alex himself might get killed is... not all that troubling. Huh. He should examine that sometime. ]
Go get a couple people and make sure he hasn't hurt anyone in the pharmacy.

He turns when Alex approaches. Oh yes. He recognizes you. You're the bastard that froze him and put him here. If any of him was still Markus he might remember other things too. But that part of him is gone right now and he'd like nothing more than to rip your ribcage out of your chest one rib at a time.
He makes a low growling sound without ever moving his mouth. Then he's charging towards you*
Reply
[ Aaand then he charges. Holy shit. That's not the response Alex anticipated - after all, as far as he knows, the whole freezing thing never happened. And it's not the ability he anticipated either. He'd sort of hoped that the broken bed and so on had a reasonable explanation, but no: apparently Markus just doesn't give a single fuck about his injuries.
The medical implications of this can be considered later. Right now, Alex's eyes widen and he throws himself out of the way into Markus' empty room, whose door is still open and useless. ]

Hr scrambles wildly to get back up. His hands clawing aginst the floor like an animal to hurl himself towards Alex.*
