Part 1.02: Mad Scamble
Panting heavily I scrambled out of my hiding space, I had to get the #$%^ out of here I thought to myself as I quickly scanned the small lab.
There… I saw what I was after a simple white laboratory coat on a hook behind the entrance door. Moving over on all fours I ripped it down and threaded my arms into it closing the coat tight to hide my holiday clothes.
“Barry? US Customs” I read the blue embroided label on the coat as I stood peering out the window.
“People were still running frantically outside the lab, some almost falling over the bleeding out body on the floor a few paces up the corridor towards the room I was detained in. The suited man was nowhere to be seen.
Opening the door I took a quick look either direction then joined the rush down the corridor away from where I started.
Approaching the corner where I first saw the suited man I caught a glimpse of Hardens dead body in the side room as I spun round what seemed to be a receptions desk, a few large double doors opening out into a crowd of more panicked people scrambling through the main airport floor…
“Should I go that way” I thought to myself… “Or should I take the corridor to the left or right”
Looking left and right down there were some more double doors at each ways far end, perhaps they would be a better escape route.
My heart stopped… To the right down the corridor just before the double door at its end the man stepped out from another corridor at the far end.
Our eyes met for but a moment... I a face of fear and shock… He instantly recognised me and formed a small sly smile…
I think I am going to bail on timed phases, and keep this more relaxed. So feel free to discuss/suggest and I'll check in when ready.
