Tiffany and Jessica Take on the Mayor

[traveler19]

Tiffany was in trouble. She had just uncovered one of her small town's dark secrets surrounding a horrific event caused by the current mayor's family back in the 1950s. The mayor could be kicked out of office for good if the public found out and he was determined to keep her quiet. He had some very powerful friends who needed the favors he could provide as mayor and he wasn't about to let Tiffany ruin his life.
Tiffany packed only what she knew she would need for the next week. She was determined to get out of town tonight. She packed some clothes and her toothbrush and one thousand dollars cash. She got into her car and headed to her friend Jessica's house. Jessica was the only person she trusted with the evidence she'd found. She hated to drag her friend into this but she had no choice. If they caught her Jessica could still tell the people the truth.
Tiffany pulled up to Jessica's house and raced up the rotted porch to the door and knocked. Jessica answered quickly.
"Tiffany you look like you've seen a ghost! What's wrong?"
"I need you to keep this for me! I can't explain right now but if something happens to me take this to the sheriff's office immediatly! Will you do that for me?"
Jessica was confused. "Well sure but what is this all about?"
"No time. I have to go now." Tiffany turned to leave but as she did her foot went through the rotted wood of the porch and she landed on her ankle. She cried out in pain.
"Oh Tiffany are you okay? Let me help you!" With some effort Jessica managed to free Tiffany's leg.
"Ow I think I sprained my ankle!"
"Can you put any weight on it?"
Tiffany tried to lie. She had to get out of town now. "Yeah I'll be okay." She tried to put weight on it. "OW!"
"Okay Tiffany we need to take you to the hospital."
"No! I can't I have to go."
"I don't think you can. Come on I'll take you. Whatever you're scared of I want to help with. We'll do this together."
Reluctantly Tiffany agreed. "Just a quick wrap up and then I need to leave." They got into her car and Jessica drove her to the emergency room.
The hospital wasn't busy. Jessica was told to sit in the waiting room and since Tiffany couldn't walk they brought out a small stretcher for her and wheeled her into the exam room. The nurse said they would have to get her shoe off but it was too painful. After a few tries the nurse paged the doctor.
"Don't worry sweetheart we'll get you taken care of."
"Well hurry!" Tiffany yelled.
"Okay honey you need to just calm down and relax. It's gonna be okay. The doctor will be here soon and she'll give you something to help you relax."
Tiffany was about to protest but the doctor walked in.
"Alright what seems to be the problem?"
"She has a sprained or possibly broken ankle. We need to get her shoe off but it hurts her too much."
The doctor looked at Tiffany's face and then nodded. She turned around and opened a drawer and pulled out a bottle and a syringe. She stuck the end of the syringe into the bottle and filled the syringe.
"Okay sweetheart just relax. This will put you right to sleep for a while."
"No!" Tiffany screamed. "I don't want it!"
The nurse held her down and the doctor grabbed hold of her arm. Tiffany struggled but was in too much pain to move much.
"I said no! Get away from me!" Tiffany felt a prick in her arm. "NO!"
The nurse and doctor continued to hold her down while the drug kicked in. Tiffany felt her face starting to get hot. Then her vision went a little fuzzy. She was losing strength and could feel a euphoric sleepiness washing over her. The nurse stroked her forehead soothingly. They had no need to hold her down now. The sedative had kicked in enough.
"Don't....I'm....need to go....let me go." Tiffany's eyes were beginning to roll.
"Shhhh just relax. There's no use fighting it now baby." Said the doctor.
Tiffany felt like she was floating on a cloud. The ceiling of the room started to drift further and further away. Then the room started to get dark. Her eyes closed and she drifted off into a deep drugged sleep.
The doctor looked at the nurse with a grin. "Tell the mayor we got her. I'll take care of her friend."
"I'll get right on it." The nurse left the exam room to go call the mayor.

Jessica sat in the waiting room waiting to hear from the doctor. As she sat she wondered what had her friend so scared. Why would she need to leave town? Was someone after her? There were so many questions she was going to ask her.
"Jessica was it?" The doctor was standing in the doorway.
"Yes. It Tiffany alright?"
"Oh she'll be fine. It's just a sprain. We're getting her wrapped up so she'll be ready in a few minutes. We just need you to come back here and help us out with something."
"Yeah of course." Jessica got up and walked with the doctor back into the exam room. As Jessica entered the room she saw Tiffany lying on the stretcher completly asleep.
"Wait why is she sleeping?" She turned towards the doctor who was now holding a guaze pad. "What is that for?"
"I need you to take a nice deep breath." The doctor lept at Jessica and forced the guaze pad over her face.
Jessica realized that she was being drugged. She kicked and fought but the sweet fumes were making her dizzy. She was able to catch one of the doctor's ribs with her elbow and the doctor cried out in pain and let go. Jessica ran for the door but everything was so blurry and she could hardly walk straight. She stumbled out into the hallway. She cried for help but no one seemed to be around. She tripped and fell and could hear the doctor running after her. She tried to get up but the doctor was on her. She felt the doctor sit on her back and she felt the pad forced back over her face.
"You're quite a little fighter aren't you?" The nurse said tauntingly. "No matter. You'll be deep in sleep just like your friend her in a few seconds."
Jessica tried to fight but the fumes were to strong. The hallway seemed to stretch further and further out in front of her. Then darkness enfolded her and she was asleep.
The doctor stood up and smiled. The mayor would be pleased. She wondered what he would have her do with the girls. Anything was possible. Anything...
