(Hey guys. The way this works, is that I'll write out a scenario, and you choose what you want to do at the end of the scenario, and from there I will continue the story, and so on, and so on. It's like one of those choose your own adventure books; did anyone else love those as a kid? Idk. I'll put trigger warnings when needed! Let's just... Go!!!)
January 6th, 20XX
When you wake up, you have no idea where you are.
Panic siezes you, and you push yourself upright. The mattress creaks beneath you; a thin, papery sheet falls from around you and bunches around your waist. You look around, trying to catch your breath, trying to make sense of your surroundings.
You seem to be in a hospital room, although it's dark as hell. There's another bed in the room to your left, and it seems to be occupied, but they aren't moving. The heart monitor connected to them is beeping, however, so you guess that's a good sign. To your right is a window, which is covered in a gauzy, greenish curtain. At least, you assume it's green. When you lift your hand up from the hospital bed, it's sort of green. You look from your hand to the window and back again.
You're hooked up to an IV, drip-drip-dripping into your left arm. Your head is fuzzy, like you're just coming out of a horrible drug trip. There's a whiteboard on the wall at your feet, but there's nothing on it except one of those pain charts -- "which smiley face is your pain level today?" -- and a line that's labeled "Nurse." There is no name on the line.
You wonder what time it is, but there's nothing in the room to indicate it. No clocks, no televisions, nothing but the window and the curtain covering it. You decide to swing your legs out of the bed and peek out of it. Maybe you'll see the sun, and maybe it'll tell you something. Or maybe you'll see a landmark. Or anything. So you kick your legs around and slip out of the bed. Immediately upon putting your weight on your left ankle, however, pain shoots up your entire leg, and you gasp and drop back on the bed.
The person on the other side of the bed shouts something unintelligble, and you whip around, her heart jumping in your throat. "Who are you?" your roommate - a girl, you think, with long brown hair and a thin face -- squeaks. She's sitting bolt upright and staring right at you, her thin blanket clutched around her throat. "Where did you come from?"
You blink. "I don't... I don't know," you say.
The girl across from you tilts her head. Her hair falls in front of her eyes. "Don't know what?" she asks. "Don't know who you are, or don't know how you got here?" She's eased the blanket down from her neck, but her shoulders are hiked up to her ears. "Because that's not good."
You shrug, look away, curl your fingers into your own sheet. "I don't know anything," you say. "I'm... Sorry."
She settles some more. "Oh. Well, then. I'm sure the nurse will help you. She's a very helpful woman." She smiles a little bit. "My name is Gail. Welcome to the Halo Hospital." She looks over her shoulder. "I guess the nurse will be here soon. It's probably close to morning rounds."
You are suddenly aware of how little you know, so you decide to ask some questions of your new friend, Gail.
