Twisted Asylum

The Stone Starts To Roll

Yuu's POV

I stretch with a groan, my back popping uncomfortably as I trudge to my office. Sevens, this job is going to be the death of me.

The hallway is oddly quiet. Usually, after big fights, the patients got really rowdy.

"Doctor, may I have a word?" The smooth voice of one of my coworkers pulled me out of my lulled thoughts.

I turn around, smiling politely. "Divus, what's up?" I ask the guard, as he pushes his two toned hair back.

"I just have a few questions. Do you have a minute?"

I nod, leaning against the wall.

He regards me with a critical eye, before speaking. "A handful of medical equipment has gone missing."

My expression drops in worry at his words.

"Scalpels, a few needles, even a pair of operating scissors. I wanted to ask if you knew anything about this? Or if any of your patients have been acting suspicious lately?"

"No, I'm sorry. I haven't been in the medical wings for a while, so I didn't even know."

That was definitely a worry. But, hopefully, there was just some kind of weird burglar, and one of the patients here WASN'T currently collecting sharp tools.

But, either way, the situation was pretty bad. Medical stuff was expensive, and knowing Director Crowley, he'd use money meant to pay the workers here to get new shit.

Divus sighs once more. "That's alright. Please, let one of the guards know if you find anything." He nods stiffly, before turning and walking away. I wave goodbye awkwardly.

"Ugh... Great. Stabby objects gone missing. Great!" I murmur sarcastically as I reach my office.

-- Elsewhere, in the asylum --

Bea yelps in pain as he's shoved against the wall. Still wounded form earlier today, the impact made his body burn with pain.

Kalim stood over him, staring down at him with dull, lifeless eyes. "Why did you have to go and do that?" His voice is rough and harsh.

Bea sputtered out in fear. "I- I'm sorry! I was- I was just joking around! I wasn't gonna do anyth- ACK" Kalim's knee collides with his stomach, causing him to crumble onto the floor.

"The entire asylum is watching all of us closer now. Because of that little stunt you pulled with Yuu." Kalim snarls, grabbing his face roughly and digging his fingers into a wound that had just started to close.

Bea whimpers in pain, his breathing heavy as his eyes flit everywhere but the man in front of him. He locks into the figure of Jamil leaning casually by the door, his gaze pleading. Jamil only smirks darkly.

"We had a plan. Get them on our side, and get the hell out. Now, I'm tempted to just leave you here!" Kalim growls, shoving him back against the wall.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Please- I'll- I'll never even talk to them again!" Bea pleads, his voice breaking as tears well up in his eyes.

"You better not. Or you know what I'll do to your sorry ass." The white haired male growls as he shoves Bea to the floor. He shoots Jamil a knowing look, before stomping out of the room.

Jamil casually strolls over to Bea, who is panting harshly on the floor. He crouched next to him, offering a hand.

Bea hesitates. Before reaching out and taking his hand.

Jamil roughly tugs him forward, causing him to yelp in pain. Jamil forces his eyes to meet his, and...
"【Ｓｎａｋｅ　Ｃｈａｒｍｅｒ】."
