*Workers are on breaks when patients are in cells*

"Is it me or did the schedule become longer?" I asked Anderson.

"I don't know and I don't care." She brushed past me.

Her face is going to get punched soon. It's only the third day in the asylum and nothing is going well, I almost lost Nine in the big place. Luckily I saved him before he could get eaten by another patient in the red section, not sure how he got in there. Checking the time on my phone it read 12:25, I should gather everyone outside. Keith was very kind to buy a leash for Nine, I had to force it on to him since he hated harnesses. I connected his leash to my belt, and we walked to the Grey section. I told Anderson beforehand that we should get the patients, but she waved me off saying she has something important to do. Opening the gray doors I saw everyone line up.

"Hi hi!" Stu waved (This boy has to much energy)

"Sup Stu, Billy and everyone." I bowed "Who's ready to go outside?"

The ones who can speak hooray while the others either stayed silent or grunted. I saw Hannibal staring at me, so is Candyman. I let them walk first holding the door for them. The guards escorted them out and the outside is very clean and there is a hill with a big tree on top. I only came here once, but I never took my time to look closely at everything. I took one look at the ground, the grass is definitely fake. At least everything else is real, the tree is very promising. There is a bed of flowers and a small pond with a bridge to the other side.

The bridge

"Ah, don't you love the smell of the outside?" Billy said behind me. "Hey why are you frowning?"

"Uh? Oh it's nothing." I flashed him a smile "Just wondering where Ms. Anderson is at."

"I don't give a crap about her anyway." Stu jumped in.

He then challenged Billy to see who is the fastest climber. I turned my head to the flower beds, I unleashed Nine to see where he would run off to. Straight off the bat he ran to the pond, jumping in for a swim. I sat near the flower beds trying to make a flower crown, I used to be good at it. Probably the best, now I lost my talent. After just a few failures I finally made it. A shadow loomed over me, I turned around and saw it was Jason. He pointed at the flowers and then at the crown and lastly to me.

"Want me to teach you?" I asked, patting an empty spot next to me.

He sat down and I gave him 10 flowers and did step by step for him. He is a quick learner and not long after we made enough for everyone. I placed one on his head, I can't tell how he reacted. He gave me a thumbs up and walked to the pond where Nine is resting. I took it upon myself to give everyone the flower crowns. I went to Thomas and Bubba since they were the closest to me, slowly putting the flower crowns on each of their heads without their knowledge. Skipping on my way I found Brahms, Bo and Vincent together talking. I put one on each of their heads. Vincent looked at me when I placed one on Bo's head, I placed a hand on lip. He understood since he nodded his head. I placed a flower crown on him and continued my mission, Hannibal was reading his book as Norman was listening to him talking. It was easy to put a crown on Hannibal, as for Norman he kept moving. Once I finally got it I fled to Micheal and Freddy putting crowns on Candyman and Chucky. Freddy was babbling nonsense while Micheal just stood still Pennywise walked over and listened to his boring conversation. Freddy was wearing his fedora so I put the flowers around his hat, the flower crown laid on Pennywise's fluffy hair and as for Micheal there is really no difficulty. Just place it on his fake hair and leave. I made two extras for Billy and Stu. They are still playing so I'll wait to give it to them in person. For the remainder of the time I stayed with Jason and Nine.
