Tangled In A Dead World

RAPUNZEL (P.O.V)

I wanted to become a doctor to help people. I wanted to make a difference in peoples lifes. I'd always been a ray of sunshine, I wasn't a bad kid, and I hated violence. Never could I hurt someone or something.  When the infection broke out I began to question if it was possible to survive without getting rid of the things trying to stop you from moving forward without violence. I promised myself I would never physically hurt a living thing but when the bitters came I had to remind myself that the things weren't living there for I wasn't breaking my promise...yet

I smiled at the people I pasted my mother led me through the crowd of people. We were currently at the Golden Flower hospital my mother was a doctor and was showing me around giving me pointers.

I heard most of them but I was to busy greeting people to hear everything she said. "Rapunzel are you listening to me?" She asked.

"Oh..yes mother," I nodded.

"What did I just say," I bit my lip and she signed,  "Unlike many hospitals we have a build in pharmacy its down this hall and then to the right and then left. The arrows point you there so you don't need to remember the directions."

"If the pharmacy on the west wing whats that way?" I asked pointing down the hallway opposite it had large metal doors. The looked to be locked and the windows were tinted so you couldn't see through.

I went to step towards it but my mother grabbed my hand, "Nothing just a bunch of empty rooms," she was obviously lying but I didn't point it out. I had a strange feeling in my stomach. "Now I'll show you the cafeteria-"

"MRS. CORONA!" A man in a lab coat rushed towards us he had blood seeping through his coat, "Another patient is showing signs of violence, you been requested,  the patient is not responding to any questions."

"Where is the patient?" My mother asked.

He lowered his voice, "In the morgue, the man was brought in because of a high fever and a bad wound, he died before we could stich him up, after we failed to revive him he was tooken there and suddenly woke up, his eyes, everything ive never seen it before!"

"Im sorry Rapunzel I have to go you stay here," She rushed off.

I frowned looking at the man, "Hi im Rapunzel Corona," I held my hand out.

He took it, "Dr. Houston," his sleeve raised at I notices a nasty wound.

"Your bleeding! It looks like you were bit," I said.

"Oh yah the patient he bit me, but im fine," he assured.

"Here let me clean that for you do you have a first ade kit?"

"Yes there one over there, every room and floor has one," he explained.

I grabbed the white box opening it. As I sat down on the bench and wrapped the Dr. Houston I couldn't help the off feeling like something bad was about to occur. Onces I was done I quickly put the stuff in the firstade kit.

"Thanks Miss. Corona you'll make a good doctor one day," he smiled but it faded as I noticed sweet dripping from his forehead.

I pressed my hand against his head, "You have a fever,"

"Im fine," he says.

"Let me go find a doctor you don't look so good," I pointed.

"I SAID IM FINE!" He growled, I flinched, "Oh I  sorry I don't know whats gotten in to- ahhh."

He claspsed to the ground I tried to catch him, "Oh my- HELP! He needs medical attention!"

It didn't take long for a doctor to come it was woman with dark hair, "Come on Dr. Houston lets get you to a room-ahh!"

She screamed as Houston tackled her to the floor digging his teeth in to her. I screamed people rushed to the womans ade. I backed away shaking whats going on. Terrified I rushed away from the scene to calm myself.

I followed the arrows that pointed to the cafeteria I need something to drink. My mouth was suddenly dry and I couldn't stop shaking. Punz how are you supposed to be a doctor if you freak out over the actions of a sick person. But he bit her. The image made me want to hurl. The cafeteria was empty.

Strangly so was most of the hospital. Where'd everyone go. I shook off the question and started to dig into my purse for change. I quickly inserted into the vending machine slapping the button. Onces I got my orange juice I took a large gulp.

I lended my head against the machine . I let a few tears fall, I need someone to talk to weres mom when you need her? Suddenly there was a large crash coming from the kitchen.  I frowned, "Hello?"

There was a loud groan in reply.  Quickly I made my way towards the noise. Gripping my purse I slowly opened the kitchen door peeking in. I looked around not seeing anything my eyes widen at the blood on the floor.

"Hello?" I asked again opening the door. Slowly I opened the door making my way towards the puddle of blood. My heart pound slightly. My heels clicked against the tile as I followed the trail of blood around the island.

I turned the corner of it to find nother but a few pots and pans that had fall. Setting my purse on the island I leaned over to pick then up. My fingers had just laced around the last on when I fell forward hitting my head aginst the cabinet.

A woman with strange eyes blood gushing out of them hovered over me snapping her jaws. I screamed pushing her faces with one of my hands away. Shakily I grapped the pan in my hand bring it up knocking the thing in its head.

I gasped as it fell to my side. "Oh my gosh im so sorry!" I cried. The woman groaned and I backed up still on the ground. The woman raised up her head slightly turned. I then noticed that there was flesh in the womans teeth, and a large bit in her side so deep I could see a rib.

What was this thing? It grabbed my leg attempting to bit my ankle. I pulled my foot free from my heel. Quickly taking off my other I threw it at the thing. Standing up still gribbing the pan I reaches for my purse grabbing it.

Just as the woman stood up I rushed out of the kitchen.only to crash in to another thing. The was obviously a janitor or used to be anyway.  I back up just to be grabbed by behind by the woman. I screamed again.

"Someone help!" I cried pulling away from the woman who launched sinking her teeth into my purse missing my arm by a inche.

Taking my pan I hit her again only hard enough for her to let go. Quickly I pushed past the janitor thing and ran down the hall were I came. Only to freeze at the sight. More of them stood the doors my mother had said had nothing in it were open and one by one things were pouring out.

Screams of people being ripped apart filled my ears as the tings attacked the doctors. I held my pan in front of me rushing down a different hall. The lights above flickered going black as soon as I turned down a different hall. Yet filled with more of those things. The only light was the exit sign.

Taking a breath I ran through the things and dieing people. I pushed open the door expecting a burst of relief only to find I left my mother inside, and the outside world was much worse. At that point I had Tangled myself into a dead world. Worsed of all I had nobody to face it with...

A/N:sorry its short.
