We were on Christiana's floor, but we were yet to make it through where all the elderly patients were. We were at the beginning of the corridoor and there were a lot of doctors and nurses ahead. "What's the plan?" Asked Bella.

"No plan." She looked at me as if I were insane. "Just run." I started running and she followed with a fast walk "quickly." I said

"No. Come Back, we will get caught. I guarantee." I just shrugged and didn't respond, she eventually grumbled and caught up with me. "It's perfectly safe" just as I said it, the door on my write swung open and a doctor flew past with an elderly man on a bed so fast he didn't even notice us. "Safe?" I shrugged "moderately... he didn't even notice me." Bella looked scared, like she just wanted to go home and curl up in bed. "Come on!" She looked even more scared than before, I didn't mean to sound that harsh, but I had to. Otherwise she wouldn't come with me. "Sorry, but we have to. I need to do this... For Christiana." She bit her lip and thought about it for a moment too long. I grabbed her arm and pulled her down the corridoor. "There." I said pointing to Chrissie's door. "There's her room." I looked in through the small frosted window on the door. I couldn't see anything. So I burst in through the door. There was a nurse beside Chrissie's bed, and a woman in a chair as well, I think it was Chrissie's grandma, she did live in this area and must have come to visit. But someone must have brought her, she couldn't drive, she was very confused. Well who wouldn't be at 95 years. I crept in, I could see Christiana was just drifting in and out of sleep slowly. I didn't want to wake the nurse or Chrissie's grandma. Chrissie looked up slowly and got a shock when she saw me. "Uh-" she said pointing to me across the room. I put my finger to my lips "shh" I said, I wheeled out a wheelchair from the corner of the room. "What are you doing?" She said, almost to weak to talk. "Just get in. Trust me." I said, she slowly swung her legs round and lifted herself into the chair. I pushed her out of the room slowly and back down the corridoor. Bella smiled and waved at Chrissie, Chrissie looked at me. "Who is that?" 

"That's Bella" I said, Bella smiled again and Chrissie frowned and sighed.

"What are we doing anyway?"

"We're going to find Kat."
