Help And Red Shoes
The yelling got louder.

Betrayal Pains

Escape?
I couldn’t tell which direction it came from.
“Who’s there?”
“Shh, quiet.”
Somewhere behind me. I turned around as best I could.

Oasis: Chapter 29

[note: Yes, I changed my mind on the chapter name. At least, I pushed it off till next week. It's my story, and I can do that. If this is your first time hearing about Oasis, you'd do well to go back and start with Chapter 1.]

 
First Aid
Max’s body flopped around as the garden cart [...]

The Gauntlet
Working in the ER I had treated at least ten serious victims of their own stupidity. I had just never been present for the injury itself.

Oasis: Chapter 27

[note: If you’re new to Oasis, you should probably start with Chapter 1: The Last Shift]

Fire To The Fuel
The shot was much louder than I had expected.
My ears rang, but I could still hear the shot echoing down the streets.

The Best Policy
It was dark enough that I couldn’t quite see who it was.

Oasis: Chapter 24

[note: If you are new to Oasis, you should go back and start with Chapter 1: The Last Shift]

Dysfunction
I woke up several hours later with a screaming headache and on an inflatable mattress.
Somebody was lightly stroking my right arm.
I opened my eyes and waited for the fuzzy world to come into focus.
“Corbin?”
