Even in the middle of her panic, she winces at the sound of his scream, knowing it's because of what she's done-- but she's borne worse guilt in far better cause, and Kim doesn't turn or even slow in her flight. She reaches the door and yanks at it, desperate to escape while she still can, knowing it won't take him long to recover.
It's locked.
She loses precious seconds fumbling with the knob before she manages to turn the latch and drag it open. Kim stumbles outside, then flees wildly down the street.
She crashes into someone, an older woman who sniffs haughtily about the rudeness of kids these days as Kim pushes by without apologizing. She spares a moment to throw a glance back over her shoulder, then looks around frantically-- there are a few people on the street, but not many; nowhere near enough for her to blend in, not as distinctive as she is.
Kim spots an alley and dashes toward it, colliding with someone else on the way. There's a dumpster, and it reminds her; she takes shelter behind it as she strips off her white coat, cursing herself under her breath.
"You idiot, you utter idiot! It's not enough you have a werewolf for a patient in Milliways-- no, you have to go and get yourself kidnapped so you can end up as an ER doc for some psycho killer who eats brains. Now what are you going to do?"
