She watched the bag empty into the IV tube and into her arm, and with every drop she continued to feel better. Now she had to go.

She flexed her fist. Dr. Karah Lee had said she had nice big veins. Cool doctor, but could she be trusted?

Before she could chicken out, Fawn grabbed the needle, held her breath and tugged the tape from the top of the needle. The tip jabbed her and she winced, but she grasped the base of the needle and yanked it out, then pressed her fingers over the hole in her arm before much blood could drip out. She shoved the IV pole away from the bed with her foot and sat up.

Voices seemed to suddenly fill the hallway, which probably meant the helicopters were landing. With all the commotion, this was the perfect time to get out.

She got up, took a deep breath to steady herself, grabbed a handful of cotton balls from the second drawer down on the exam-room desk. She placed one cotton ball over the hole in her arm and put some tape over that, then bent her elbow double. That should stop the bleeding soon.

She reached down for her pack, which that hot guy, Blaze—oh, what a name—had brought back for her, and pulled out some fresh clothes. After dressing, she swung the pack over her shoulder, then tiptoed to the door and cracked it open. No one in the hallway.

With another deep breath, she stepped out into the hallway and turned left, toward the back of the clinic. There had to be some kind of emergency exit that way. She could do this. Everything would be okay.
