A seven years old boy is playing with a baseball. Playing catch on his own. He coughs a little between a certain intervals.

Like all Londoners, he caught the weird flu. He has been quarantined here since yesterday.

A woman ( he thinks her name is Nina) is reading an old magazine next to him. There's a name tag on her clothes. Like everyone else here.

She is bored. She has got a lot better. Her fever is almost gone. But the authority hasn't signed her release form yet.

So she's trapped here. With the other patients.

Nina scratches her head. She really needs a good relaxing bath in her bath tub. Wondering how much longer she must remain here.

A nurse walks to check on the patient. She's coughing too. A sick nurse, treating sick patients. Quarantined like the others here.

Nina says, "You shouldn't wander off too much, Sara."

The nurse replies, "It's my job. It would be boring staying in here, doing nothing."

Sara asks, "How's my favorite boy?"

The boy blows raspberry to her. He doesn't like it when adults treat him like a kid.

A doctor comes into the quarantined room. Not wearing any masker, gloves or other protection.

Sara warns, "Use the masker and gloves, Doc. You don't want to be sick. Trust me."

Nina is frozen on spot at first.

Then she takes few steps backwards.

The woman who is standing in front of them is no doctor.

She is a cold blooded killer.

Chrissy stares around the room. All of the patients are lying helplessly on their beds. Only these three are walking around.

She grabs a pointy wooden stick from her lab coat.

Nina says in her panic, "You won't escape from here."

Chrissy smiles wickedly. She completely ignores her.

Her sole focus stays on the boy.

The little boy stares to the weapon in her hand. The ball falls from his hands. It rolls away, stops next to Nina's feet.

Chrissy says, "An eye for an eye. Blame it all on your grandpa, boy."

She plunges to stab him.

A baseball hits her head precisely. Made her head dizzy for a while.

"Run!" yells Nina.

She grabs more items to shoot at the crazy woman.

Chrissy yells in her berserk, "You again! Always meddle with my affairs! I'll kill you personally!"

The boy has run to the door, screaming for help while hitting the glass door repeatedly.

The sick nurse kept pressing the button but the door won't open from inside. She takes a peek to outside. The guards behind the glass door have been murdered in cold blood.

Chrissy kept on walking to Nina. Her bloody weapon is aiming for her throat. Nina tries to push her away when she attacks her.

Sara hits Chrissy's back with a steel hanger used to hang infuse bag.

Chrissy screams out her pain. She tries to stab Sara with her wooden knife. The brave nurse is using her steel hanger like a pole against an angry beast.
