Alex entered the hospital with a soft stare and a sad look. He hadn't found Brie yet. He was tired, and he had seen things...things he hadn't seen yet. Thing he hand't want to see. Faces and dead. He was tired. Exhausted.

The gun shot wound hurt. He looked for supplies. He didn't prepare to be bothered, it had been so quiet in the hospital.

Infection counter: 50/100


OOC: SCENARIO 10

Scenario requirements: A phone begins to ring as you wander the inside of the hospital. At first you do not want to pick it up, but the noise persists. You wander multiple rooms, and there are multiple phones. Each one you pick is a voice from a person you recognize, begging you for help. Whenever you ask where they are, they hang up. The ringing continues, over and over. If you are RPing this with multiple people, all of you hear the ringing, coming from various phones. It is up to you when your character comes to the realization that the ringing is all in their heads, (or if they need other chars to help them realize so!)

When the event is over, add +10 infection to your character's infection meter

Characters involved: Alex, Juliette
Extra effect: N/A

Juliette had hit the gates, literally, she ignored the slight dull of pain as her hands gripped the bars tightly. A sweet brief relief from the surrounding fog. Her eyes had finally opened well enough to gaze upon the exterior of the hospital. Large. Safe. She had been told so much by that man in the junkyard. She pushed herself into it.

Inside, though, she shivered, her hands idly scratching at the itches that occasionally plagued her. Her head turned every so often at the slightest of noises, the soft whispers, the small meows. There was a body up ahead and at first she wasn't sure how well she could trust her eyes. But he was moving slowly, displaying mannerisms she had come to recognize.

"Alex," she whispered and she ran towards him. "Alex." Her hands went to grip his shirt. "She was there..." But she didn't elaborate further.

A phone began to ring. Her head instantly snapped towards the sound.

"Brie? Where? Did you see her?" Alex turned as he felt her hands in his shirt. Luckily it wasn't so dirty. Luckily.

"Hey. Who are you talking about Jules?" He blinked as he thought he heard ringing. A phone? It wasn't close by. How could a phone be ringing? "Come on Jules...Maybe we should go this way right?" He nodded.

His shirt was dirty now, there were signs that Juliette had been digging; her hands were covered in mud and nails embedded with dirt. "I couldn't get her out," she almost seemed like she was on the verge of tears as she muttered her cat's name. Questions of Brie went unaddressed.

"Phones." She then said as they headed in the direction of the sound they were making. "Why are they ringing? Should we answer them?" It had been a while since they had even heard the said device, all their electricity had been off, communications lost. "What if someone needs help?" A hand was still attached to his shirt as they walked.

"Let me see your hands here." Alex looked at them, and then up at her. He looked away. What had she been looking for? What had she been digging for? Did it matter?

He thought of the little dog. Innocent and cute and a Monster.

Weren't they all monsters?

"I don't know. I don't know. We should. We can answer the phones." The ringing continued. it was annoying. he didn't want to answer. "Go ahead Jules, answer the phone."

A few bits of evidence still remained, mostly under her nails but much of it had decided to go to his once clean shirt. It also remained prominent in her mind, the state of her cat half buried in the ground, rotting away and how she had disappeared when Juliette had looked back for her. So many unanswered questions, and she couldn't find the voice to raise any of them.

Only about the ringing phone. No, she realized, her pained eyes looking around in the hallway. More, phones. It reminded her of older times, before cellular phones became so popular when payphones would line a few of the hallways so people could spread their news. Relics, as younger people would call them. And all ringing and not stopping. They were persistent. "Why are you making me answer it?" How cruel of the youth. (Maybe he didn't know how to handle a landline, haha).

Juliette took a careful step forward and plucked it off the receiver, she brought it to her ear. "Hello?" There was nothing but static at first, white noise that took over the call.

Then a voice broke through, in pain. Begging for help. "Commodore." She breathed out, wiping her head to Alex, eyes large, "she's in trouble, Alex, she's hurt! - Commodore, calm down, where are you -" The call ended with an abrupt click.

Juliette reached for another one, "hello?" A pained sound escaped her, "Fluffles! Where are you-" And again.

And again, each one she picked up.

Alex watched Jules move, but the ringing stopped and he was terrified. He watched Jules reaction.

"H...Hey Jules. Hey." The ringing had stopped but she was still looking at the phone. had it been in his head? Was it a cruel reminder?

No, He could hear another phone. "I'll get it this time. Here. Stand back." He picked it up and waited. The voice was deep and masculine. Dr. Sou? He didn't know. He wanted to know.

But Dr. Sou was alive, and the phone clicked away. And he hung it up and laughed a little.

"It's fake. It's in the head. We're hallucinating. I'm sick. We're sick. Jules help me find some medicine"

Juliette was ready to protest, or plead with him about the phones and the callers on the other lines that just kept on hanging up on her (rude). "They won't say where they are," she told him in the least as she watched him attempt one himself.

"How.. do you know that, Alex?" There was a weird twist in her tone, as if she was offended by his statement and realization. The phone she had in her hand suddenly started to ring, even though it was clearly off the receiver. It was placed back on and Juliette's expression turned to worry.

"We're sick..." she repeated, remember what the man in the casino had said. They were all infected. "Alright..." she breathed out, sparing one more glance at the phones as they kept on ringing.

"Infected." He laughed, though it was a sound of misery, not really one of joy. Or even joking. "Sick, We're hearing things. I feel like I need to tear my skin off."

He ran a hand through his hair. "Hey, hey you know a good song Jules? You ever sing a song to your cats? You should do that for me! Sing me a song that you'd sing to your cats." He kept a soft hold on her, waited for a song.

Left the phones but the rings would haunt him. And so would the pleas for help.

Help who?

He couldn't even help himself.

A song, she had a few. She couldn't say she had a particularly good singing voice but she remembered her cats not minding as she would hum or sing things idly while embroidery or feeding them.

She had never song for people though, "I give my woman half my money at the general store," she began to sing while taking a hold of Alex's shirt as they began to walk.

" ... and bought some store bough cat food for that mean eyed cat."
