"Are you sure the book fell out in Mona's room?" Aubrey asked her
sister as they hurried off the elevator on the pediatrics floor.
"That's the only place I set the bag down. It has to be there."
Breanna said with a worried frown on her face as the two hurried towards Mona's room. "I have an essay to work on. That book has to be there!"
Aubrey pushed the door to Mona's room open and they stepped inside.
"Mona, Bree forgot her...." she started to say as she glanced over towards the bed, her eyes widening as she noticed that Mona wasn't in her usual space rocking. "Mona?" Her eyes quickly scanned the room for any hiding places as she hurried over to the bathroom and pulled the door open.
No Mona.
"Where is she?" Bree bent down, peering under the bed in case her sister had missed anything, the missing textbook temporarily forgotten.
"Mona?"
"Do you think they took her for testing or something?" Aubrey said as she finished checking the closet.
"I don't think so." Bree said slowly as she circled the room as if expecting Mona to possibly appear out of thin air. "We weren't gone that long and I don't think they would have let us visit if Mona was going to have testing or something. Mona?"
"Where could she be?" Aubrey whispered as he sister finally stopped circling the room, the fact that Mona really was missing finally sinking in. "She's always in here."
"Maybe she's feeling better and took a walk or something?" Bree said hopefully.
"Or maybe Stegman got her." Aubrey whispered as a horrible idea suddenly hit her. Stegman was nuts. Everyone knew that. What if he thought somehow that getting rid of Mona might save him from the lawsuit.
"Bree, we've got to find her!"
Mona slipped off of the elevator once more dragging the Stegman-ass by his ear. She wasn't sure where he friend was but she could sense something, a feeling like electricity dancing in the air. She had felt that before when the other little girl came to visit her. Then there were the other things that she felt, the dark, cold feelings.... She wasn't sure what created that but it was very bad, worse than Stegman.
Mona ducked into an empty room, pulling the ass with her, as a nurse hurried past. She started to step out again as soon as the coast was clear but stopped, looking up with a puzzled expression. There was that bad, cold feeling again, stronger than it had ever been down in her room.
She closed her eyes for a moment, letting the feelings was over her. She didn't know what the bad feeling meant but it was coming from the same place as she could sense the feeling her friend caused.
Mona hurried out of the room, pulling harder on the ass this time,
as she headed down the hallway as fast as she could go. Suddenly the cold feeling hit her full force, almost bringing the girl to her knees with it's intensity. Mona swayed as she forced herself to move to the door of the room in front of her, her grip on the ass's ear dropping as she did so.
She peered through the crack in the door, making herself as small as possible so she wouldn't be seen. Mona's eyes widened as she watched. Her friend was there, holding the hand of an older woman as some of the doctors, nice ones, not like Stegman, gathered around the bedside of a man with bandages on his head. There was someone else there, though, a boy, a boy who exuded menace and evil. He moved towards the man in the bed, his hand reaching out for him. Mona closed her eyes for a moment, afraid to look. The boy was going to do something very bad.
