Chapter 3: Danger Zone.

Holly wakes Artemis up as they we're about to land. Few minutes, as they land... They rent a car, as they drive it on their way to St. Mary's Hospital. On the way, they crossed the mysterious St. Laureth Asylum.

Yellow tape was circling around it, especially the gates with matching chains and locks. Artemis was staring at it and caught the window that was filled with blood on the video he watched yesterday... It was clean now, however he saw a black shadow flying around it, it was like an ill shaped ball with a cord as its tail... It was not an ordinary shadow; there was some kind of electricity flowing within it... Is that the entity? Thought Artemis, then... A shadow or a spirit that can omit energy? Interesting...

Butler starts the radio to hear some news, good thing that was they really needed now. More information.

After the mysteriously killings happened in the St. Laureth Asylum, the patients who are hurt and badly injured are admitted in different hospitals here in the same state, however, it has been reported that the patients are dying one by one... experiencing also the same faith of the staffs of the same asylum...

All of them looked at each other, passing every gaze and processing what just they heard. That news was enough to know what is happening.

"I thought those have calmed down." Holly said.

"What are you going to do in the hospital anyway?" Butler asked.

"Finding Clarence Rodriguez." Artemis simply answered.

Those entities are hunting down the ones they haven't killed yet, and they plan to do so slowly, starting by the patients... If they're finish, the survivor's next. Artemis assumed.

After a long way, the car stopped at the parking lot of St. Mary's Hospital.

"You know they don't let visitors from this early hour of the day." Butler said.

"I know. That is why, Holly..." Artemis said as he looks into her. "... You will help us sneak in the hospital. I will dress as a doctor so that I can go around freely, and Butler..." he looks back again at his bodyguard, "you will stay here–"

"Why are you making my job so hard, Artemis?"

"Because we need a fast escape, when you saw us at that door, you run the car engine, we hop and we go." Artemis ordered. Butler considers options but decided not to contradict his principal.

"Understood. Just be careful, you two. Okay?"

"We will." Holly said as both Artemis and she hop out and went on their way to the door on the parking lot...

As Artemis picks the lock of the door, they immediately went inside. Luckily, Artemis phone was upgraded of his softwares and hacking programs. He hacked the systems and takes care of the surveillance camera. While he was doing this, Holly found a doctor's uniform in one of the room's there.

"Arty, I think this should do." Holly suggests the uniform.

"Holly, where did you get that? And the fact that you just found it somewhere here proves that the uniform is dirty and maybe infected."

"Arty, when did you become so gay? Wear this now!" Holly commanded that Artemis don't have a choice base on Holly's voice. He wears the dress and grateful that it doesn't smell.

"Come on. Let's go. Do you know what room?" Holly asked.

"Fourth floor, room zero-four." Artemis answered. He suddenly feels bad about this. He was cured in Atlantis Complex but he can't put out away in his mind that four is death... And they're two of them.
