She winds up in the movie theater but loses Bri

Mackenzie sprinted through the crowded mall, dodging and weaving around people as best she could. As she clutched her bare body, the blushing young woman cursed her decision to come to the mall in just a towel that day. She should have known things would end up like this! Mackenzie could hear people shouting all around her, but was panicking so much she couldn't even spare the brain power to parse what they were saying. Her only focus was on finding a secluded spot to hide.

Keeping her eyes peeled for a restroom, Mackenzie rounded a corner and found an even more densely packed group of people right in front of her! She couldn't proceed forward without slowing down significantly, but her eyes followed where the crowd was coming from and saw several open doors. Without even a moment's consideration, the naked girl sprinted towards the doors, just barely managing to squeeze through the doorway before it closed. The crowd of people were moviegoers that had just finished watching an action flick and had filed out of the theater section of the mall. The very section Mackenzie had just slipped into.

She now found herself in the theater hallway, with numbered signs denoting the doors to various movie screenings on the left and right walls. As the door clicked shut behind her, Mackenzie immediately felt a wave of relief. The doors were exit only, designed to let people out of the theater but not in, so there was no chance of anyone following her now. Although, that also meant that the chances of Bri finding her here we're next to zero... But most importantly, the hallway was at least deserted.

"Oh wow, she looks just like the chick from the movie!" a man's voice called. "Except she's not even wearing a bikini!"

Mackenzie whipped her head to the side, noticing three young men exiting the theater. Deserted, it seemed, was a relative term.

Mackenzie resumed her run, sprinting down the dim carpeted hallway as the boys called for her to come back for a few pictures. Mackenzie ducked into the first door she saw, as she was more than a little **** to be completely out of the public view.

She ran inside, wondering where she might end up. A dark theater would suit her fine for now, so long as there were enough empty seats for her to hide in. A janitor's closet, or some other storage room would likely be ideal, especially if she could find something to wear there (though the last time she'd entered a theater's janitor's closet it hadn't gone well for her...). Mackenzie really hoped she wasn't barging into a staff room, potentially interrupting a group of employees on a lunch break. But she had made the decision, and wherever Mackenzie wound up, it would be better than just staying put! ...Right?
