[QUOTE="talien, post: 4792416, member: 3285"] [b]Wild Hunt: Part 11 – I Want a New Drug[/b] It was around 2 a.m. when the agents got a call about victims arriving from Club Apocalypse. The agents met them at St. Vincent’s Hospital. “What happened?” asked Hammer. Curtis was there to give the report. “Witnesses saw these four kids start screaming at 2:14 a.m., and then they ran out into the street.” Two body bags were carried passed them into the ER. “A car hit this girl as she ran wildly, clawing at invisible things. The guy stabbed himself in the throat with his own knife. Both were DOA.” “But there are survivors?” asked Jim-Bean hopefully. “Two other males: one’s been curled up in a fetal position and the other won’t stop—“ Two more men on stretchers were wheeled in. One of them was shrieking at the top of his lungs. “—screaming,” finished Curtis. Archive wrinkled his nose. “What’s that smell?” A horrible stench seems to surround each of the survivors. Dr. Donato, the doc on call, ushered the two survivors into the ICU and started shouting commands to his staff. “We need to talk to them, immediately,” said Hammer. “Let me get them stabilized,” shouted Donato amidst the swarming nurses and interns. The doors to the ICU slammed shut in front of Hammer. The victims were restrained and hooked up to IVs with morphine drips. Ten minutes later the room was silent; even the screaming stopped. Hammer shoved the doors open. “We need to speak to them. Now.” The only sounds were the rhythmic breathing of the men and the comforting beeps of their monitors. Dr. Donato stood protectively in front of the two beds. “Neither of these men are in a position to talk with you, I’m afraid.” “Wake them up,” said Hammer. “I don’t care how you have to do it, but wake them up.” “I can’t,” said Donato. “Even if I could, they’re in critical condition…” The monitors snapped out of their rhythm with a cacophony of warning beeps. Donato whirled, the agents temporarily forgotten. “We’re losing them!” Nurses rushed back in. “What’s happening?” asked Jim-Bean. “They’re slipping into comas!” shouted Donato. “I want you out of my ER, now!” “Archive,” began Hammer, “can you—“ The commotion on the other side of the doors suddenly went silent. Donato came out a moment later. “We lost both of them. At the same time.” Hammer swore. “I want access to their blood work.” “I don’t think…” began Donato. Hammer flashed his badge. “We’re with CIFA. I’m not asking you to think. Give me the blood work or I’ll have you indicted on obstructing a federal investigation.” Donato snapped his mouth shut. A few minutes later the toxicological data was uploaded to their cistrons. Archive ran it through Blacknet’s analysis programs, speeding up reports that would have taken hours. “Blood work is normal,” said Archive. “The urine toxicology screen is positive for alcohol, THC, LSD, and a ketamine.” “What kind of ketamine?” asked Jim-Bean. “The ketamine is a variant form of standard ketamine.

Whatever this drug is, it’s something new.” Jim-Bean scratched his head. “What does this have to do with the killer?” “I’m not sure,” said Hammer, “but put on your best outfit.” “What for?” asked Archive. “We’re going to visit Club Apocalypse.” [/QUOTE]
