《Zombie Survivor Diaries》Chapter 2: Surgeon Prologue
Advertisement
The hospital was overflowing with patients. Normally, this time of the year was calm; mid spring wasn’t the time for accidents in the city, but today was different. There were a great deal of people suffering strokes and full mental breakdowns. They attacked anyone in sight and had to be restrained or sedated. Every single bed was full with all doctors and nurses working overtime to keep up with the seemingly endless stream of patients.
Surgeon was working with her superior doctor on one such patient. He was in an extremely bad state, cuts, bites and gashes everywhere on his body. As such, he was a priority, the rest of the patients, while injured, were not in such a critical state as this man was.
Other doctors were never really sure what to think of Surgeon as they couldn't read her face, if they could read anything from it, it was that it was devoid of emotion working on patients like a mindless and heartless machine. But right now, no other doctor cared what Surgeon thought, their minds racing and panicking at the situation. Some of the doctors had actually gotten wounded from some of the patients, others were thinking about their children and significant others. But the doctor and surgeon right now were occupied by this patient, who despite being sedated, started spasming and moving. Slowly trying to grasp things and mumble, Surgeon’s eyes started going wide. This person was starting to awaken from sedation and they couldn't apply more without risking death.
Another doctor was called in to keep the patient steady so that the two doctors could finish the operation, but then something strange happened. The wounds and incisions started to close up, weird fleshy growths started filling up every little incision made and covering the body. Almost as if it was trying to protect it from further harm, but suddenly a loud scream was heard. It was that of the doctor holding the patient down as his neck was between the patients teeth, blood streaming from it.

Surgeon stepped back as the man started grasping around him trying to hold the doctor in its mouth as the doctor tried to escape, his eyes begging for help, looking directly into Surgeon's eyes only to be met with a cold but shocked look.
“We have to get out if all patients are like this. Pack your stuff and get out of this building now” she said as she let the machine that was keeping the man sedated pump him with a lethal dose. The only other doctor left quickly ran to his locker alongside Surgeon who grabbed her own backpack and stuffed it with her own clothing and her car keys which really was all she brought. “Let’s gather some medicine before leaving.” She said.
The nurses and most doctors were still running around the hospital trying to help people but the screams became louder and louder. The two of them quickly went back to the operating room where both the doctor and patient were dead on the table.The two of them stuffed their backpacks with simple everyday medicine. “Hand me your bag,” she said quickly and the other doctor complied, handing over his bag without a second thought as Surgeon threw some more medicine inside. But it was at this point she noticed, the screams stopped, not a single person screaming for help or screaming in pain. “ We have to go… now”
The leader role almost came natural to her, or so the doctor thought. In truth, there was only a single thought inside of her head, I must survive and save my family. She didn't have a husband or children but she did have parents and a brother she cared more for than anything else.
The emergency exit was directly to the left out of the operation section, luckily for them it should have been empty right now. The two of them sneaked out right until they exited the operation section. The exit was free but both the front and the right had an infected stumbling about. And it only took them a single second to notice someone that wasn't infected as they screamed and charged at the pair.

The two started making a break for the door, but the doctor slipped and got back up again, this single second, this single moment had decided his fate. As Surgeon easily took the lead in the sprint and opened the door to step out of the building, she took a single look behind her and noticed that the infected were right on the other doctor's tail. She couldn't take the risk, saving a life didn't take priority for the first time in her life as she said “I am sorry.” A single sentence that ended a life, the doctor's eyes went wide as horror took over his face. “No Wai-” But the sentence was cut off as Surgeon closed the door. A loud bang followed by a scream of pain that filled the air as she slowly moved down the stairs making sure not to fall on her way down.
