Out of Time
When you push the bottom on the door, surprisingly, it opens. You begin to creep down the hallway, attempting to avoid people, but soon enough you are surprised by the whoosh of a nearby hospital door. There is no time to react. A nurse suddenly appears from behind the door while you try to hide from her view. The nurse passes by you with out even glancing in your direction, as if she can't even see you. You get a feeling that something is off, but you don't think much of it and turn your attention towards the door at the end of the hall.
The mystical door sucks you in like a dream often does, without promise of what you're seeing is actually real. Your hand touches the brittle wooden handle, and you can almost feel the outdoors. You turn it with more ease than you expected. Nervously, you step out into the fresh air.
The sun nearly blinds you with it's gleaming golden rays. You walk with caution, uncertain what might happen if you took a wrong step. You step further towards freedom, but then you notice there's blood suddenly seeping out of a open wound. Your eyes snap shut all on their own. You collapse the ground and take a long, wheezing breath, for it will be your last. In the real world, your heart flatlines as your heart rate monitor shifts from a steady rhythm of hope to one continuous, piercing beep.
