Chapter 2

Nicole stifled a yawn. Her picnic basket swung from her arm, rattling the assortment of cookies that filled it as she moved about the bustling room. Everything had a silver lining. For the Slaughs, it was that everyone had embraced the concept of generosity. Every blood drive was an exercise in organized chaos. It was her job to control the flow of people. For reasons she couldn’t fathom, the nurses refused to let her do the stabbing part.

“Make yourself comfortable, Ms. Long Fisher,” she beamed to the middle-aged woman. “The nurses will be with you soon.” A quick glance and she was on her way to Mr. Smoke. “Ready for your cookie?”

The old mechanic was peering hungrily into her picnic basket before she could finish the sentence.

“What have you got for us this time?”

She plucked out a key lime pie cookie with a flourish. “Don’t worry. I remembered your favorite.”

The man took it with a grin. He patted her on the head as he moved towards the door. A flush of pride swept through her, helping to fight off her fatigue for just a little longer. Turning around, she was about to call the next donor over when there was a sudden crash.

The single level hospital didn’t have an excess of space. The emergency room entrance was just down the hall. And the corridor devoted to it ran the length of the room, visible through a series of windows. Staff rushed past. A blur of white coats and pink scrubs crowded around a trembling gurney.

A gargled scream tracked the progression. Frantic. Panicked. A roar that made terror roll through Nicole’s veins. She moved without thought, sprinting across the room to catch a glimpse of what was coming. Through the crush of bodies, she caught a glimpse of the patient. Amy Black Bear. Horror distorted the young girl’s features. But that wasn’t what stopped Nicole in her tracks.

Nicole’s stomach dropped. She barely heard the cries and whispers that swept through the crowd like wildfire. The medical workers swept the sobbing girl down the hall and out of sight. But the image of her remained, burned into Nicole’s mind.

Someone took her eyes.
