ooc|| This is before anyone gets onto the island, on the mainland. A New York/Los Angeles setting - Big, a bit dangerous, kind of city. The clinic's located near the outskirts near the city, attracting more illiget patients than legit. Business has not been going very well, but the doctors there get paid fairly, if a bit underpaid, for their occupations. The paint and wallpaper is peeling here and there, the flowers on the receptionist's desk are a bit dry, the magizines are outdated by a year, but in all it's a nice place. There are only six employees - A pediatrician [Children's doctor], a family practitioner [Is an all-around doctor, no real specialties], 2 OBJYs [Delivers babies], an internal medicine [Adult's doctor], and a nurse. All take turns at the receptionists' desk, and each 'on call' - The 24-hour shift - 'OC'.

------------------------------------------------------------

Dai sighed, drumming her fingers on the desk boredly. She looked out the window, sighed, and resumed typing on the computer again. The moon was full tonight, and she was here, stuck on OC. The lone bulb outside flickered with a dying fizzle.

EmeraldJade: Ugh. On call. How's everything doing?

IggyNacho: pretty good, won teh chess tornament. u/

EmeraldJade: Alright. Oh - Hold on, call.

IggyNacho: k


The phone rang with an annoying jingle. Dai picked it up with another sigh and said in the most cheerful voice she could manage, "Hello, this is Dai of Tranquility's Health and Family Practice. Who may I have the pleasure of speaking to?"

Useless telemarketer gabble.

"No, no, we're not interested. Tha - No, no. We aren't. Thank you." She slammed down the phone with a somewhat feeling of glee.

EmeraldJade: Sorry, telemarketer. How's Rosa doing?

IggyNacho: pretty good 4 a baby, she's been screming all day bcause we wont pay attention 2 her.

EmeraldJade: Maybe tomorrow I could visit around... Maybe five-ish?

IggyNacho: thats a good plan. mebbe u could do ur docter thing and shut her up

EmeraldJade: LOL. Anyway, gotta go. Boss might catch me. Bye!

IggyNacho: bye

|EmeraldJade has signed off|


Dai fiddled with the hem of her shirt and spun around in her chair a few times, her wheelchair sliding across the linoleum floor with practiced ease. The jingle signifying the opening of the door sounded; Dai stopped in her tracks and nearly slammed into the wall. The sillioute of the patient leaned against the wall rather casually, but didn't seem seriously hurt. But then again, Dai had been wrong many times before. Quickly straitening herself out, she clasped her hands together and set them onto the table like a child listening to a schoolteacher and said in the same tone she had used to the telemarketer, "Hello! Welcome to Tranquility's Health and Family Practice. Do you have an appointment or will this be a walk-in?"

Michael had heard of this place from some homeless men in the park. Walking down the street he dicided that he better get some sort of check up sence he had been in prison for quite some time and sence he was on the run from the cops he couldn't go to his regular doctor. Heading twards the outskirts of the town till he found the dirty little building. Cringing slightly he opened the door and scooted in. "Ummm...Hello?" He looked around and headed twards the front desk.

Gallen walked in weighed down by a pile of gear and sound equipment.
"Hello, Dai ye in? It's Gallen ah decide to come early to set up fer tomorrows charity run. Gallen had talked Dai and her associates into a fundraiser which his station was more then happy to host, why, because Gallen was the best choice to host this event.

He grumbled as he lugged the gear in, his two fellow radio/office mates had found a way to get out of this job leaving poor Gallen with all the work.

"But dey will be ere tomorrow for all the fun, damn jerks" he muttered. "Dai, Ah am leaving dis stuff ere in dis...dis.. Ah guess dis is yer Lobby? Anyway be right bach wit mure stuff just let me know where Ah cun set up.

Dai straintened her glasses and peered almost owlishly at the would-be patient. This man looked a little shabby, a bit shy, but certainly didn't look like something was clearly wrong with him. She didn't like nosy, rude patients that demanded to be taken care of when they only had something minor. The words of the last patient like this, unbidden, bubbled up from the vault of her mind: 'Oh, I have a stomach ache! Can't you hurry up? It's probably cancer and I wouldn't know it! It's cancer!'

She mentally laughed and started toward the man, slowly wheeling her wheelchair towards him. "A walk-in, then? May I ask for your name?"

"Oh, hey Gallen! That's great, just set it in the lobby. Near the couch, if you please." Dai turned to the rather short man and smiled, then returned to Micheal. "I'm sorry, where were we...?"

[Gah. Short post. ><]

Gallen left his stuff there and headed back out to get more equipment. He soon returned and started to set up, pulling wires from bags and setting up mics and Av equipment.

"So how has everything been Dai?" Gallen had not noticed Mike yet.

Smiled softly to the woman. "My name is Michael, I'm just here for a check up." He searched his pockets looking for his wallet and sighed remembering he didn't have it......it was still with his other belongings in prison. "Umm..I'm sorry if you need ID I don't have mine with me." Putting his hands up on the desk he hoped he would be able to get an appintment.

Gallen clambered in and dropped more junk in the lobby and then looked up at the two talking. He smiled to Dai, "long time no see. How yha been?" Then he saw the other guy, oh he looked familiar, but he was not sure. Gallen soon began to pull out wires and set up the main sound board on one of the lobby tables.

"Ahh..." Dai's face fell; her mind flipped through all the worst-case scenarios. He was probably an illegal, even though he didn't look it. Or maybe he was on the run. Her eyes quickly scanned him. Well-versed in the study of human anatomy, Dai's dark eyes didn't detect any odd bulges or bumps; he was relatively safe, unless he had a knife hidden somewhere. Her fingers moved toward her tazer button; her palms started to sweat. Gallen was here; she had her tazer. She was safe. Forcing herself to relax, she forced her face to be bland and calm; her voice was blank. "Micheal... Do you have any, ah, any credit cards? Anything?" Her heart was pumping, she swallowed inaudibly. She saw him shake his head no; his mouth formed a word that she didn't really hear. she tapped her pen in the desk thoughtfully, although inside she felt ready to scream, her imagination in overdrive, rethinking the news reports, imagining her as the victim in The New Detectives on the Discovery Channel. "Well, I suppose I can just do a check-up... It's twenty dollars, but we're doing some charity work, so you won't need to pay..." She wheeled around the desk, flashing a quick glance at Gallen, if only for the phycological feeling of safety. "If you'll just follow me to the examination room..."

Smiled softly to her and followed her keeping his bag close to him. "That is very nice of you. Wish there were others out there like you." Looked around the halls and to Gallen......he looked so familure. "Hmm....." He said nothing more but just followed the nurse or receptionist.
