Dr Horrible sped down 17th avenue and raced around the corner. He cut off some guy in a Honda CRV resulting in some colorful language being shouted out of the windows.
"S-sorry, sorry..." He mumbled quietly as he sped through a yellow light and almost skidded into a telephone pole.
Moist sat in the passenger side with a death grip on the handle mounted to the roof of the small silver car.
"Geez man! Slow down! If we die you won't ever get to see her!" He yelled as he frantically fastened his seatbelt.
Dr Horrible just drove faster towards the St Peters Hospital. Apparently Penny was alive! The news reporters were itching for a story and, based on the whole situation, had assumed she had died. When they found out the truth, they were to proud to tell the city they were wrong.
Dr Horrible swore the first thing he would do after he saw Penny was hunt down the sick fool who started these rumors.
After he saw Penny.... He still couldn't wrap his mind around the idea that the love of his life was still alive. She was still in the hospital, recovering, but she was alive.
The car sped into the hospital parking lot and Dr Horrible drove right into the ambulance loading dock. He tugged at the door handle and when it didn't open, he climbed out of the open window.
"You know you could just unlock the door!" Moist called to him as he ran through the automatic doors.
He ran straight to the nurses station and rang the bell frantically. A fakely tanned woman wearing bright pink scrubs shuffled towards him. She chewed her gum loudly and looked at Dr Horrible like she was bored. "Yes? How may I help you, sir?" She spoke in a way that told him she was not happy to help. He didn't care about that right now.
"Penny! I need to know what room Penny's in!" He said leaning over the desk. The nurse raised an eyebrow.
He held out his hand by his shoulder. "She's about this high. Red hair, green eyes, talks about nature and stuff!"
The nurse crossed her arms. "Oh her. Yeah I tried to give her a burger for dinner last night and I had to sit and listen to her speech about how cows are going to be endangered in a 100 years!" She rolled her eyes and looked at her chart. "She's upstairs in room 423."
Dr Horrible raced to the elevator. "Hey! Your welcome!" She called after him.
He pressed the button to call the elevator. He waited a few seconds then ran to the stairwell.
When he reached to forth floor he was completely out of breath. He didn't stop though. He ran down the hall looking for her room. 420, 421, 422. 423! He skidded to a stop and knocked on the door in an erratic rhythm. He heard a soft voice tell home to come in. His heart was pounding out of his chest as he slowly pushed open the door. It felt as if it weighed a million pounds.
A thin pale girl with soft red hair and deep green eyes looked up at him. Her thin pink lips stretched into a smile.
"Billy?"
"S-sorry, sorry..." He mumbled quietly as he sped through a yellow light and almost skidded into a telephone pole.
