Jack realizes how much time has gone by. Also realizing, no one has come to check on him.
Actually there hasn't been any noise other than his laughing and bird chirps from outside. He holds his breath, focusing on any noise. At all. 'I got what I wanted..so there's that' He let's out a sharp breath and stands up, turning towards the door, holding his head to the door listening. His heart leaps at an unexpected click. Looking down, his hand is on the doorknob and it was open. 'Odd..' . Walking out in the hallway he stands there, unsure what to do. After all, Jack has been stuck in that room for god knows how long.

There is a small mirror hung on the wall in a room further down the hall that he can see. Letting his hand drag on the wall, he walks toward it, all the while taking in his surroundings. There are many other rooms, some with the door closed. They all look alike with small differences here and there. Walking further, his heart skips a beat as he looks down another hall. The rooms down there are different. Small barred up windows on the doors. Jack goes into that hallway and walks close to a closed nearby room, leaning so he can see better inside. The inside is dimly lit from the light in the hallway light, but he knows what he sees. Just about every inch of the room is covered with faded beige colored pads. Some of it is torn from a side of the wall. His heart feels like it's in his throat, wondering who must've done that. 'I shouldn't be here'. Looking back down the hall, he looks at the room he had left. All the doors around that didn't have windows on them. His door did..with bars on it. He looks at the door in front of him. This all crosses his mind, just as a familiar, distorted giggle comes from behind him. Jack freezes, suppressing a scream.

"You thought I would just go away forever? You know very well I'm never really gone. Why don't you just give up. Why do you think I'm here anyway?" 'I don't know why you're here-' Anti sighs. 'Of course you do Sean, you know very well why. Anyway, you'd better move away from that door. I can tell you don't realize there are people around you, and that person in there is looking at you like you're crazy. Which you are". Jack turns around at Anti, tired of him. He balls up his hands into fists. What are you talking about, no one is around. Stop messing with my head!" 'Did you really thing Signe was actually here Sean?' Now looking at Anti he's wearing Jack's red shirt with black ripped skinny jeans. Everything else about him is the same as Jack, except darker green hair that is slightly covering an eye, his irises are light green instead of his own blue eyes. 'What...'
'She's not here Sean. You attempted to kill her,and then you passed out. She's not here, get it through your head."

His word sink in, but Jack doesn't believe any of it. " look at your arm, at what you're wearing. Look around you" Anti looks at Jack with a blank expression, waiting patiently. Jack looks down at his arm, taking a moment of really looking. Slowly he  sees that there are bracelets there. Hospital bracelets. Looking around nothing has changed. Then, it seemed like everything happened at once. Running and walking footsteps, wheel squeaking, a soft whirring of a distant air vent. People talking. People around him. His eyes widen in horror and realization. 'Was the nurse even real...'. Anti is still there, grinning. "You see now, good"

There is an older man in front of Jack, talking to him perhaps the whole time. 'That would explain why his voice kept changing so much..", "Well good news is that you did post to twitter several times, although the video you did you didn't talk. Boy, everyone is so much more worried about you. They don't know about me though". Anti shrugs and shifts his feet. "Might want to expect a visitor soon" He winks at Jack and his form wavers and fades away. He can hear what the man in front of him is saying now, which is now speaking into a walkie talkie. "- ean is aware now, I'm going to take him into the evaluation room, and then to join the other patients". The man turns his attention back to Jack and his face softens, giving, jack a warm smile. "Good to have ya back, come with me". Jack blinks several times and then nods, walking with him. "Uhm...how long have I been here"...."Are you a doctor?", "Where is my family"..."what has happ-" The man pats Jack's shoulder. " I am a doctor, don't worry, and your questions will be answered soon enough" Jack doesn't say anything else as he walks with the doctor.

His thoughts are racing in his head, but he feels absolutely calm. That happens a lot anyway.
They turn down the hallway, and Jack looks into the room he had came out of. It's the same one as the one down the hall, same interior. "You might want to have this back,you had dropped it". The doctor hands him his phone. "T-thank you" Jack answers quietly. More walking and turning down hallways. Looking around, everything has a red or blue outline and static looking, but that's normal..right? The doctor stops walking, and so does Jack. The Evaluation Room, the door plague read. "Take a seat in that chair so we can get your vitals" a different doctor asked Jack. He nods and sits, letting his leg bounce out of anxiety. The doctor who had spoken to him came over and put an blood pressure cuff on him. Reading her name tag it says 'Dr. McKenzie'. Peering over her shoulder he sees the previous doctor talking with other doctors in hushed voices. Dr. McKenzie breaks his train of thought. She has checked his heart as well. "Your heart rate is a little fast but that is expected, everything else is normal, good. Now follow Dr. Lewis to the Unit with the other patients" Jack looks towards the group of doctors with a slightly confused expression. "Oh.. forgive me, I never said my name" the doctor who walked him there stepped forward with a warm smile. "My name is Dr.Lewis" Jack blinks and brushes his hair out his eyes, but it falls back in place.He answers with an "okay", stands up and follows the doctor out the door, to the Unit.
