i looked up and saw sergeant sharper , mary , with her gun pointed at me . it was a swarm of ants running around in his brain , it was an itch beyond his ability to scratch . with her at my side , tyler guides us through the lobby and into the hospital store . he stared at me a moment , his eyes searching . the woman runs into the curtain and tears it off the wall . but when she tried to move away her ribs yelped in pain .
