Vivian "Vi" Amoureuse, the pill popping sensation
The butler hands a martini to some CEO from some big company, he turns to you and nods. He grabs a pitcher from the bar and brings it over to the superstar and fills her glass up to the brim, "Yes Ms. Amoureuse, I can do that for you right away." He speaks in a tired tone, he quickly replaces the pitcher back in its spot and puts away the server tray. He pops out the VIP door, and within the span of a few seconds he comes back in and approaches you once more, "The bouncer wouldn't let me down to see the General, but they're saying it might be a few days. Something about a quarantine until they find all the afflicted individuals or something."
Someone in the back calls for him, "Yes, you, you in the bowtie, yooouuu-hoooo! I would like another seltzer but this time with only four ice cubes, anything odd and I might be cursed with bad luck!" He zips off as quickly as he came to go server another VIP.
Then out of nowhere you start hearing shouting coming from the main terminal. Collectively the music stops, and the idle chatter ceases.

You see the man himself, General Berrimore Lee coming into the terminal and situating himself in front of the Christmas tree, using some of the fake presents to elevate himself. He begins to shout, "Would any individuals who went into Gates, D, B, C, and F please approach the tree. Silently families and people get up out of their chairs with their luggage and approach the tree. The General whispers something to the families that you can't make out from here, but you can tell what the intent was because some mournfully nodded while others shouted protest, "What do you mean we can't take our luggage! Do you know how expensive half this shit was! -Well where are you taking it?"
Soon some men in military uniforms appear from behind the tree and silently escort the few who came up into the cafeteria. "If you find anyone acting strangely or starts developing a hacking cough, please notify one of the staff. As you know, we're trying to fix this as quickly as we can but we may be here for a few days. Get some rest for the morning, the kind NewTereus staff will provide you with a hot breakfast, and a portion of the mall will be open for use.", he steps from his perch and heads towards where the military men exited.
A few murmurs of concern arise:
"What does that mean? Were they sick?"
"But I've had the flu for weeks now, I still might be sick... will I be taken away?"
"So if they're gone then the flights will be back in the morning right?"

After that little event that put everyone on edge, you decide that enough is enough and that someone's gotta get to the bottom of this. You get from your seat, leaving behind a large imprint of your rear on the leather. From casual observation, you see a bouncer protecting the VIP stairs, several security guards standing around keeping an eye on everything, you can see a lone flight attendant smoking a cigarette over by some vending machines, and you can see a pilot leaving the cafeteria.
