It was late in the evening and the clinic was almost completely silent. Jade sat quietly at the front desk waiting for her shift to finish for the evening. It must be past ten thirty. Jade looked to the clock that hung on the wall to see that her suspicions were correct. It was ten thirty and Mariko was supposed to be here over thirty minutes ago. Jade sighed soft to herself as she leaned back in her chair. It had been a long day for the fullbringer nurse. Three kids came in with broken bones, Mss. Kurazaki came in with a bad cold and a mother came in for her prenatal checkup. These were just the patients Jade could remember. There must have been at least fifty patients today. All Jade wanted to do was go home pop some left overs in the microwave, take a bath and go to bed. Jade then jumped in her seat when he phone started to vibrate off the hook. Looking down at the desk she saw her simple light blue flip phone with a white rabbit hanging buzzing off the hook. Quickly picking it up and flipping it open she brought the phone to her ear.
”Hello?” answered Jade as she looked to the door as Mariko walked through. ”Sorry Jade!!!” apologized Mariko as she bowed deeply before standing up properly and shrug off her jacket hanging it on the hanger. ”Its alright,” replied Jade before saying, ”Hello?” But no one answered her but before she was about the shut the phone she heard a familiar sound on the other end. It was that cry of the spirits that attacked her so many years ago. She snapped the phone shut and looked at the caller ID. Jade chewed her lip before getting up from her seat and retrieving her items before saying good night and leaving. Jade studying her phone wondering who had called her. Sighing softly to herself she shoved her phone into her jacket pocket and through the hood up over head as it started to snow softly.
As Jade took a turn down a road into the neighborhoods she heard the cry and it wasn’t that far from where she stood. Looking up slightly she saw a tall black creature standing a couple blocks ahead of Jade. ”What is it doing,” whispered Jade as she started towards the beast with curiosity crossing her eyes. She would come to a stop and leaned up against the wall as she watched the beast let out another cry. But from out of nowhere a man wearing those black uniforms came down on the beast with a sword.
