Nightshift 38: West Wing, North Hall 1-B

Now, if Teisel were a sixties-numbered room, where would he be? It shouldn't be too far away. He only had two directions to go in from here. Farther down the hall were women's rooms, if he remembered the nameplates right. The rooms were probably arranged in a grid, so...
No sense standing around. He had a fifty-fifty chance of going ( Read more... )

Not only his head hurt -- everything ached. Turning around, going back to his room, and lying back down was way the hell too tempting. What the fuck -- that just wasn't the kind of guy he was. Sangamon Taylor, GEE International, didn't roll over and take it from anyone or anything. Not the government, not John Q. Public, not the fucking Mafia thugs even when they had a helicopter with guns and he didn't.
A headache wasn't going to stop him. It was just part of how this place screwed with you -- no pharmaceutical remedies for normal things, even when major injuries were evidently healed in impossibly short spans. Fuck, what he wouldn't give for some aspirin. Oh well.
Or even a drink of water -- oh, wait. Naah. There had been something deeply off about the water in the bathroom last night; best not to risk it. Again, the kitchen would provide. Assuming they could get there this time.

One hallway down, just a few to go. It had been easy so far, but then again, that didn't mean much. It could get bad just as fast here as it could inside Tartarus.
He kept an eye out for any familiar faces as he headed down the hallway. That intercom announcement had mentioned the possibility, at least. If there was anyone else that had just arrived from home, he wanted to grab them early and bring them along. It would be easier to just give that talk once than to constantly repeat it.

Trying to place what he'd seen on the map with the actual places, Bruce paused briefly after entering this new hall. If he remembered correctly, a left turn would bring him to the Recreational Field; a right, to the main hallway.
Tonight, his destination was neither. He moved on.

It was remarkably silent in these halls. Most patients were usually up and about during the night, but Scar failed to notice anyone around. Possibly, he was a bit on the early side...
