6194A. If you see a person wearing a white lab coat in the MedBay that's BRP Hospital ng Katulungan doing her night rounds. Please don't scream and throw Holy Water at her.

6194C. We dont have Nurses doing Night Rounds. - BRP Hospital ng Katulungan
6194D. Ignore the Gun fire sounds at night. The marching one as well. Heck Ignore anything that sounds at night that isn't an alarm. Scratch that, ignore the alarms until I say so. - Admiral Knight
I bit back a yawn as I stretch my arms out hearing the satisfying pops it made. I took a glance at the office clock above the door an notice it was already past midnight.
It was way past Curfew that I had set up. That can't be good. I glace at the mounting amount of backlog paperwork, approval sheets and documents and contemplated if I should just do an all-nighter or make a mad dash towards my bedroom. The noise outside the office was all I need to know what my decision. Fuck Running.
I sighed as I regret not putting said bedroom next to the office and instead opted for it to be with the Officers Barracks. I wish I could smack my younger self for that stupid decision. With a deep breath and a shake of the head just to remove any drowsiness I went back to my work.
That was the plan anyway.
My work was cut short when I heard the door burst open and entered a rather paled face USS Leyte. Her natural brown hair was disheveled and she was gasping for breath, her dark brown eyes were dilating in fear. Her attire wasn't safe either, coconut print PJ had her first two buttons unbutton revealing a nice view of her cleavage to make matters worst she wasnt even wearing any underwear. I just hope Bataan won't hear about this or I would be dead...or worst.
"Morning to you too Leyte." I greeted the frightened carrier. "What brings you here this morning."
"Admiral?" She asked voice quivering with a hint of disbelief mixed with it. Can't say I blame her if she just sprinted down the hall ways like that.
"The one and only." I saved my work and shut down my PC I was pretty sure I wont be getting anymore work done now. "I think I made it clear that 2200hrs was the Curfew for this base."
"Sorry Admiral." She bowed in apology and I averted my eyes. This was not the time for my hormones to be active. I have a wife for crying out loud. "It's just that I was hungry and wanted to have a light snack."
"Wasn't there a Vending machine in your Barracks?" I asked knowing that there was no need to run in the administrative wing for a light snack even if the Mess Hall was located here. There are Vending machines located around the base with each barracks to have atleast one. "Also..." I pointed at her chest to which she caught and with a wild blush and a silent apology she close it properly.
"The vending machine ran out of stock and the closes one was the one in the Admin Wing." She explained albeit embarrassingly given the crimson hue on her cheeks were any indication. I need to note that down that some machine need a refill. "And when I was near the Admin Wing..." She hesitated her white skin becoming even more whiter... that wasn't normal.
"Let me guess... You heard noises?" She nodded not trusting on her voice at the moment.
"Screams and Wails?"
Another nod.
"Gun Fire and Explosions"
Another nod.
"Crying and Moaning?"
Another one. Huh, he didnt hear any of the crying and moaning. I wonder which area is that coming from.
"Then you saw things." I continued the frantic nods she was giving me was all the thing I need to know.
"Yes Commander. People in old uniforms both Japanese and American...they were darting across the hallways..." She cut her voice was trembling and hands shaking. I knew enough to know what she saw.
"That's enough Leyte. I know what you saw." I stood up and made my way towards the fridge that was in my office, opened it up and grab two bottle of cold chocolate drink. "There's a reason why we have Curfew here. After all this base is Haunted."
"Haunted!?" The surprise look on her face was kinda funny and cute at the same time. Then her color went even a tad more paler.
"This is an Old Military Base since World War 2. Can't say I'm surprise that there would be ghost lurking around at night." I said opening the bottle in my hand before giving one to the paling Carrier. She drank it down in a single motion. "Only a few number of personnel are allowed to wander around at night. That includes me the patrol guards above ground and Katulungan who should be patrolling the MedBay."
"Sir can I request something from you?"
"Sure go ahead."
"Can I sleep here for the night."
"Take the couch."
"Thank you Sir... And good morning."
And with that the poor carrier went to sleep in an instant. Then again I was sure she was tired with all the running since for one reason or another the Hallways changes at night. Damn Ghost likes to play around and make the Hallways like a maze.
I sighed as I turn towards the wide open door way and eyed the pale and bloody faces that were looking back at me.
It was damn too early for this.
"Shoo, Get away."
