"Curiosity Killed The Cat, Or Maybe John Dorian"

Chapter 1: Red

It had started out like every other day. I got up, took a shower, and spent two hours sculpting my hair to perfection. Which by the way, it absolutely was!

After a breakfast of Cheerios, a health kick that Carla is making Turk and I do…apparently cold pizza for breakfast and then chili for lunch was not good for you! Who knew? Anyway, after dumping my dish, for which I had to run from a spoon wielding Carla for, I saddled up Sasha and headed into work. Of course, no morning would be complete without me flying into a garbage can because of a ramp put down by the cackling Janitor. Which was kinda cool…I did three flips! And the judges gave me three 10s! I rock!

The moment I walked inside, I knew something was going to happen. The scampering of frightened interns was a give away. Then he…oh no…c'mon heart…slow down…so what that he has the body of an Adonis…stop thinking that! Calm down…calm down…

"Dolly!"

"The sheep?"

"No! The big breasted country singer! Now come!"

With a snap of his fingers I was following him like the good little lapdog that I was. We stopped in front of room 112 and he turned to look at me.

"This patient requested you."

I had no time to ask why…since it seemed weird to me…because I was pushed inside and the door was slammed shut. As soon as I righted myself I looked up…and knew I shouldn't have come into work.

"Hello John."

"…Terry?"

"How have you been?"

I backed away from the woman in front of me slowly, my eyes never once leaving the scalpel that was in her hands.

"What is it John? Or maybe I should call you Dr. Dorian? Would that be more fitting?" she sneered, causing a shudder to go through my body. She laughed with what seemed delight, but I couldn't be sure. My brain was slowly shutting down as panic began to set in.

"Please Terry…please put down the scalpel…" I pleaded, my voice soft as if talking to a skittish animal. She just smiled and twirled the metal in her fingers. She stepped closer, and I couldn't stop her. My back was already to the wall.

"Nope sweetie. No can do. I have another place to put this…"

I saw her lunge, and I did the only thing I could do. I ran. I turned tail and bolted out of that room, all the while screaming:

"DR. COX!!!"

The older man turned around, his mouth open to scold, even as his eyes went wide with shock. He darted forward, his hands outstretched towards me.

"Newbie, get away from- NEWBIE!!"

There it was…that blinding pain as something cut through me. It hurt…it hurt so much…I could feel myself falling…but I never hit the floor. Was a floating? No…I was in someone's arms. I could hear crying, and someone screaming, but I couldn't tell who it was. I couldn't only see him, with his frightened eyes staring at me as he clutched me close. He was holding me…if only I didn't have to get stabbed for him to do so.

"Newbie, hold on! Barbie! Get a stretcher!"

"But there is so much blood!"

"Get the damned stretcher!"

"Oh Bambi…"

"Stop crying Carla and get Gandhi."

I could hear the conversations going on…but now I could barely see Perry. The darkness was setting in…and so was the red. There was so much of it, on me, on him. I think the floor was covered in it.

"Dr. Cox?" I whispered, barely able to get breath.

"Newbie, don't speak. You have to save your strength!"

"But…"

"No Newbie. You have to stay with us here. So no speaking!"

"Why…why is there so much red?"

"What? What are you- Newbie? Newbie! Wake up! Don't close your eyes! Damn it!"

"JD!"

TBC…

Yes folks, I know, I am a horrible person. I stabbed JD! But it gets better, I promise! PLEASE REVIEW!!! I live off them!
