The Plot Progresses... Our group of six are stationed in the hospital's right corridor. The lobby still makes muffled sounds but gun shots seem to have died down. The corridor you are in is currently quiet, some of the doors are closed to presumable patients. There is not a nurse or doctor in sight, it seems all hospital staff has abandoned post and fled for their lives. You're stuck with a of presently aggressive group of strangers in a terrible and horrifying situation. One thing still remains as fact: The vaccination is indeed still in the hospital somewhere as no one in the lobby had been vaccinated yet. “We can get you out if we just find the vaccine first.” Amadeus spoke as his back turned to the group and descended down the hall. "You really think finding this vaccination is that important right now?" Kenneth retorted before the group traveled too far away. "We can't leave without it. And if we find it, you all get one. Don't you want to be vaccinated? That's why you're here, isn't it?" The woman, Anna, speaks sharply as she trails behind Amadeus. "How do we know you won't hold the gun to our heads as you romantically escape with the vaccinations? And the mob, really?" Ken waves his hands in a mocking manner before rolling his eyes dramatically. "How can you expect us to trust two mobsters with a gun?" Jane pipes up, Ken has a point. Anna stops walking and with an obvious look of annoyance she spins on her heel and speaks. "Look, you can follow us and be safe as we have a gun. Or you can stay here and await certain doom. It's up to you, but we're leaving to find this vaccination." The two start walking towards the stairwell door and to everyone's surprise Dexter trails behind. "Ve might as vell go vith them." His thick accent trailing ahead. "Come on, What have we got to loose?" Kimberly follows after Dexter, motioning to Jane, Riley, and Ken. The group hesitantly follows, stepping into the narrow stairwell, the remaining muffles from the lobby immediately quieting. They silently ascend, Amadeus leading the group. Your prompt; (What have we gotten ourselves into?) As you turn the railing to the second floor door it's clear things don't look good. Peering through the glass window to the other side you see thick plastic separating the corridor from the stairwell. In extremely clear lettering you read the word "QUARANTINE". Just as your eyes scan the zippered door of the apparent plastic quarantine zone the hospital's power cuts out. For a few moments everything is pitch black, unable to see your hands in front of your face. Soon after a series of ominous red lights flicker on, dimly illuminating the stair well and the corridor before them. Just as you think that things could not possibly get worse a loud and terrifying sound begins to echo throughout the entire hospital. This can't be good. The group is searching for the vaccination in hopes that Anna and Amadeus will hold up their end of the bargain, giving everyone in the group a shot and then help them escape. Its safe to assume the vaccination is in fact on the second floor that has been quarantined off. Facts, but unknown to anyone in the group yet: All patients behind the quarantine zone are already infected and are strapped down to hospital beds. There are easily over four dozen patients, some rooms even holding two or three of the infected on less-than-sturdy wheeled transport stretchers. There does not seem to be any staff, it is safe to assume they fled when the gun shots started. On the center of the the second floor is a constructed command hub that is only accessible with a keycard, but not the keycard Anna has. Peering into the hub a large metal box with the word "VACCINE" labeled on the door can clearly be seen, however it is locked and requires a key. It is heavy and can not be lifted or moved without machinery. A map to the second floor can be found outside of the hub. It will appear unmarked to your character, save for the "you are here" dot which will show them next to the hub. It is imperative that you find some sort of weapon. MAP OF THE HOSPITAL SECOND FLOOR The blue marker is where the group currently is. Every green marker signifies an infected person. If the marker is not in a room, they are roaming freely. The red boxes mark the hub and the location of the keycard and vaccination key. All of these locations are unknown to your character, should they explore they should encounter these things as if they held no prior knowledge. |
