❝ this must be some sort of
sick, cruel joke!



"It looks like orange threw up in here." Alex announced bitterly as he leaned over the bars, grimacing down at the overly crowded hospital reception below. The five residents — Alex, Izzie, Cristina, Lexie, and Aliya —watched collectively as the bright orange Mercy West scrubs slowly started to weave in and out of the blue Seattle Grace ones, infesting each and every possible corner of the hospital.

But, Aliya guessed that's how infections worked, sneaking up on you when you least expected it.

The staff from Seattle Grace didn't want this to happen, which made this tragic event exactly like an infection. Nobody wanted strep throat, or bacterial meningitis. It's not something you would willingly sign yourself up for.

The orange-clad infectors in question must know they were unwelcome in this hospital by now, seeing as using just one iota of critical thinking would allow them to decipher that specific fact, even if it was only their first day. Their first hour, even. They could gather their evidence easily from the way everybody looked as if they were an abomination to the art of medicine.

Which, in sincere and totally honesty, they were.

They were all single handedly taking an axe to the surgeons of Seattle Grace's careers, and that was enough to declare war.

Though, Aliya was really trying her best to be optimistic about this whole situation, instead of thinking the world was about to end.

However, even she couldn't suppress the scowl on her face and the narrowing of her eyes as she looked down at the mob.

Because, orange really was the worst colour in the world.

"I mean, really? Orange scrubs?" Lexie replied with a scoff and crossing her arms in a huff, clearly annoyed at this whole ordeal. "You can't get much worse than that."

"Anyone who says orange is the new black needs a consult." Cristina insisted, running a hand through her curls as she too leaned over the rails to stare down at the parasites — a nickname coined for them long before they even arrived in these four walls, shortly after the Seattle Grace residents were informed of the merger.

"I heard the nurses had to wear purple." Aliya added to the slanderous conversation, resting her elbows on the railing. There was nothing these invaders could do to change the group's already made up mind that they were no good. "I mean, orange and purple? Were they running a hospital or a Halloween store?"
