As I laid in my bed, I could hear footsteps coming from outside of my room. I could mostly hear shuffling and muffled noises even though my door wasn't all the way closed, I left it slightly opened.
I then saw a man, no, this man was a friend of my father. I saw him go inside my sisters room, I then heard muffled noises again, the noises sounded like someone struggling. I laid in my bed and lifted the covers over my nose in fear as I heard the muffled noises in my sisters room, the man then walked out and quickly locked my sisters door and hurriedly going down stairs with a dimly lit candle in his hand, after he took off, this was when the fire started.
That night was the death of my family, I was the only one that survived thanks to my cat. As I got out I remembered looking back and watched as my home burst into flames, my family was in there, and they were now dead. I cried as I soon realized that I couldn't save them, I weeped in sorrow as I fell to my knees. Once investigators arrived to the now fire consumed pile I called home, I tried explaining to them about the man, the same man that I was certain was the one who caused this tragedy.
But little did I know, the man that was once in my house was also right where I was. He convinced the investigators that I was the one who caused the fire, and this "man" was nothing but something made up, because the man was doctor and he was incredible in combing people, he declared that I was mad, and that I should be put into a mental hospital.
As I was placed into a mental hospital I didn't realize how poor the conditions were, it was horrible. The nurses and the doctors were horrible too, they made everything worse and made no effort to help, in fact, they took enjoyment to cause pain to others. They shaved my head, put me in straight jackets, gave me medications I didn't need, forced me into electroshock therapy. The nurses and doctors did this in order to cure my "madness", they didn't do these things to cure anything, they did this for their enjoyment.
As I was going through the horrible torture I was put through my doctors, I found a way to escape this torture by creating a made up world inside my head. A world that wasn't torture, a world where I was free to do what I want, a world called wonderland. I assumed that my made up world could help me, but my wonderland was severely damaged by doctors and nurses, my wonderland only made me worse.
I needed answers, who was responsible for the murder of my family? I had to investigate and reopen the case myself as the investigators were convinced that I was the perpetrator due to my "madness". It was because of that same man that nobody took you seriously and not only that, he was the main reason for the damage of my wonderland. I remembered my sister being quite uncomfortable near the man, she told me that he would sometimes act peculiar around her. And then it hit me, he was the one that caused the painful death of my family. He went to my sisters room, which could explain the shuffling, and as a way to cover his crimes he started the fire.
I wanted to hurt him, I even wanted to kill him. But instead I decided to confront him, I knew that he was going to the underground train station so that's when I sneakily followed him. Once I reached the underground train station that's when I confronted him on the spot, I told him about the murder of my family and how I knew it was him. I began to confront him some more, even telling him about the fact that he abused his power and allowed abuse and mistreatment towards children under his care. The man only scoffed and said that nobody would believe my statement since I'm "mad".
"You corrupted my memories, but you failed to make me forget!" I grimaced.
The man only scoffed.
"I could have made you a tasty bit." The man said. "Clients out the door waiting for a piece from a raving delusional beauty with no memory from the past or no sense of the future."
As the man continued to insult me, I only continued to stare him down, placing my hands on my hips as I listened to him in anger and disbelief.
"You insisted on holding onto your fantasies, you're mad like your sister." The man chuckled.
My eyes widen, emotions inside me range from anger, sadness, rage, how dare he speak about my sister.
"Don't speak of her!" I yelled back. "You didn't know her!"
The man only laughed in my face, he continued to speak of my sister right to my face, insulting her and calling her a "tease" for supposedly pretending to despise him. Anger and rage boiled inside me, I clench my hands into fists in anger as I glared up at the man.
"Such evil will be punished." I replied.
I knew I wasn't mad, I knew that it was him who caused the death of my family, and his words was all I needed to hear. I then snatched the key away from the man, but not before pushing him into the train tracks as a train was coming our way, instantly killing him as small stains of blood splattered at my feet. I then turned around and walked out of the underground train station, once I stepped out of the underground train station the world looked entirely different.
This place was entirely different from mine, whether this was my wonderland or the real world, but this world wasn't real for sure.
