Best Enemies

Rubi

I solemnly stare down at my overpriced chicken and avocado sandwich which I purchased in the Hospital Cafeteria. I haven't eaten all day.

 I have been thinking about Hanna, about Alcor, about the robot children. Peter and Felix enter and I rise out of my seat. Peter starts to mumble something about a conversation in the carpark last night but I ignore him. Felix is looking on edge.

"Have you seen Nutmeg at all?" He asks with a quaver in his voice.

"I thought she was with you." I suddenly become suspicious. 

Before I could say anything else a message come over the loud speaker.

"Could Rubi Kingsley, Felix Conrad and Peter Jones please come to emergency ward 113 Hanna Scott is wishing to speak with you?" 

My heart jumps and I look to the boys. They are obviously thinking the same thing as me. Hanna is awake. We rush down the stairs and squeeze into the already bursting elevator. An elderly lady mutter something about 'kids these days" and "no consideration" but I don't care what she thinks.

 The elevator chimes and we tumble out and Felix is sprawled out on the floor. I go to help him up but Peter rushes in and grabs his hand. 

We walk silently down the white corridor filled with LED lights that burn our eyes. The smell has become so familiar to me I don't even recognise the odour of blood and sterilizing liquid. A blue door with a white circle indicates the number 113. 

Behind this door is Hanna. I take a big breath and turn the handle. 

I slowly peer around at the surroundings. It doesn't look much like a hospital ward. There are flickering lights and rusty furniture. 

All of a sudden I hear loud screaming.

 I fall to the ground in pain as they get louder. I turn in a circle looking for the source. There is a girl in the corner crouched down, knees up against her chest. 

She has tears flowing down her cheeks and a nasty cut in her temple. I edge closer to her and she stops screaming. 

Her face is full of terror and she tries and backs even further into the corner. I bend down in front of her and say sweetly.

"Don't worry, I am not going to hurt you. Why are you screaming?" 

Her face changes slightly but then she glances over my shoulder and opens her mouth to scream again but my world is engulfed in darkness.

Chicken especially for Kara and Tessa.

WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO RUBI AND NUTMEG.  

Also I think that it is important that I say this.  

Here we go....

I have been thinking about stopping my story.

there we go.

I love writing it but I feel like it isn't very good.  I don't want to force you to read this if you don't want to.  I will try and write better.  

Tell me if there is something wrong with the storyline.  I couldn't even remember Peter's last Name.  

Also to any of you that guessed.  Yes Peter is Gay.  But there is more to come on that.....
