Night 72: Intercom, End of Night
Sep. 19th, 2013 09:13 pmIt was the moment that almost every patient dreaded. The intercom came on, signaling the end of night and of any progress they might have made.
And the Head Doctor sounded appropriately smug. "Well, you little rats have been scurrying all over tonight, haven't you? Down below, up high, it's certainly fun to keep track of everything..."
He chuckled. "Inch your way a little further each night, and eventually you think you'll find an end to this maze? That's the idea, isn't it? We'll just have to wait and see if you're right about that."
Oddly calm in comparison to how he'd been at the start of the night, the Head Doctor left it at that. The intercom switched off and the night came to a sudden end.
