Dr. Malone Makes Rounds…Again

Westmore Memorial Hospital

If she could have found her voice, Jamie supposed she would have cried for help. But then again, if the past had been any indication, the Malone-thing would vanish into thin air as soon as anyone came to her aid. Even Bert it would seem was enough to make the ‘doctor-who-wouldn’t-die’ simply evaporate. At least she had convinced Bert that these ghostly visitors were not all in her head. For now, though, it was apparent that Jamie was on her own. She looked directly at the presence, doing her best to not let on as to just how petrified she was. This latest version of the Malone-thing seemed to have reverted to what Jamie would say was Malone 1.0. If she had not known better, she would have sworn to anyone that the ghost in front of her was a flesh and blood man.

Though not completely solid in form, he was as close as could be expected, Jamie supposed. You had to look very close to see that there was just a glimmer of the room visible through Malone’s shape. This time around, however, the pretend visage that the former chief of hospital operations presented was long gone. There was not a human on the planet, Jamie thought, that would have willingly allowed this vile, menacing-looking care provider anywhere near them or a family member, no matter how dire the situation. Malone looked as if he had crawled from a musty and mold-infested enclosure, as strips of blackened fabric hung from his tattered and ripped clothing.

His smile was not one that would encourage anyone to return it in kind. His lips, or rather what was left of them, were drawn back in an almost snarling presence, what Jamie had seen on dogs or other wild animals backed into a corner before attacking. The thing’s teeth were chipped and broken and stained with a mixture of some sort of black and olive-green substance. Great swaths of flesh trailed from his arms and neck, swaying to and from as he moved closer. But worst of all was the smell. Jamie was not sure how to describe it, other than the stench of decay and death. The former eyes that looked just black and dead were now gone. Only empty sockets remained, both of which were filled at the edges with long, yellow-white worms that exuded a sickening slurping or sucking sound as they crawled and squirmed and writhed about the orifices.

“Jamie…. Jamie…. Jamie….” the Malone-thing said in a slow and hideously unnerving tone. “You just could not let it be, could you? Had to keep poking around, huh?”

She was not sure what was creeping her out more, his vastly deteriorating appearance or that he knew her by name.

“I tried to be nice…really I did,” the thing went on. “I offered you the painless way out…the way with no suffering…but I guess that was not to your liking, eh? I offer all my services through two options: the easy way and the hard way.
