January 15 Saturday
My name is Tate Rante I am 18 and have brown hair with silvery eyes. Now that were acquainted let me tell you about my morning. I woke up this morning to a broken nose and a white room. I probably passed out after they reset my nose and they put me in the Winter Room. I was getting real sick of this room. In the passed week I had been in here three times. I just couldn't help it its way to fun hurting people. I decided I might as well get some points so that's why I'm writing in this ridicules journal. For every time you cooperated you get points every time you did something wrong you got points taken away. Once you reached 100 they would considered if you were ready to leave. Go out in the real world where you didn't have to wear pajamas with unicorns all day. All I wanted to do was get out of this dumb. I should have never cut that guys finger off. I should probably explain that last part.
I was just sitting with my friends at the lunch table when this new kid, I think his name was Josh. Anyway he came up and sat down next to me and just started asking me how old I was, what my name was, if I liked the school, it was quite annoying. But I managed to get through lunch without punching him. Unfortunately he had the same art class as me. And naturally he got the seat right next to me. On and on he went talking. I was trying to be a good little boy and ignore him and just work on my collage. Then he struck a nerve by asking me about my parents. So I grabbed my scissors and cut some of his pinky off. Since I had a history of anger problems and had spent a short time when I was 10 here I got sent back to The Sunny Shelter. Yippee for me.
At around noon they let me out of The Winter room. Just in time for the annual Saturday party. Every Saturday we had a party, well I would hardly call it a party. Mostly they just played happy music and we got to wear normal peoples clothes. Well a bunch of crazy people danced around or just shouted nonsense. I mean some of them were really really crazy. I mean sure I was in a mental hospital but I wasn't that crazy I just liked to see people in pain. So after beginning let out of The Winter room I went back to my room and put on some normal peoples clothes. Which consisted of jeans and a blue shirt with a black hoodie. I then made my way down the hallway from my room leading to the commons. It was a pretty simple place two couches, a t.v., a few tables, a radio. And the best part a snack bar loaded with all sorts of desserts the only reason I come to these things. Also because it counts for points. Everyone else had already shown up. Rylee was talking to an invisible person, North was staring at her with bug eyes. He either liked her or was scared of her, maybe both. Raelynn was counting the guards seeing if she could overpower them and escape. Laken who was unfortunately Jett at the moment came over to talk to me "his brother".
"Hey bro where have you been all morning." He put his arms around my shoulder and I nearly got put back in The Winter room. Lucky for him I had some self-control.
"I'm not your brother. Now remove your arm before I break it."
"Is someone having a little episode. Are the voices specking to you again." I gave him my best glare but before I could get ready for a punch he changed.
"Oh hello Tate and how are we doing today. Any more anger problems today." I hated it when he changed personality's in the middle of a conversation. When he was Ryker it was better just to play along.
"No dr. Ryker, I've been fine and happy all morning." I gave him my best I hate you smile.
"Good for you. You've been making quite the improvements we might have to start considering letting you go.
Now if only a real doctor would say that to me and I would be home free. Laken/Ryker walked away to go speak with his " patients". I decided then was a good time to have a little talk with Rylee about yesterday.
"Oh Rylee, may I have a word."
"No no no, shoo your going to get me in trouble." she said this facing the wall so I could only assume she was specking to Sunny.
"Do you see a weapon around here because I don't." She eyed the room as if a machine gun would just appear.
"Um any who, about yesterday you broke my nose."
"What, oh hello Tate and how are we today" She grinned noticing the bandage that wrapped around my bruised nose.
"I don't appreciate being punched. But I will gladly punch you if you want to know how it feels." All of a sudden North was right at my side with a worried look a crossed his face,
"Why don't we all just calm down no need to resort to violence. Now Rylee why don't you just hand me the knife before someone gets hurt." Now I was worried. A knife how'd she get a knife. She was probably planning on killing me.
"Sunny doesn't like you." This little comment was aimed at North who didn't react with surprise so I'm guessing he already knew that.
"You don't have to do what Sunny says Rylee so just hand me the knife."
She looked redundantly behind her at where I'm assuming Sunny was then she handed over a huge cooking knife that could have easily killed me. I must admit it was a little frightening. North took the knife from Rylee's hands. Somehow The Rabbits didn't even notice us until this point and at the sight of the huge knife they charged at North. North must have noticed this because he screamed.
"Wait this isn't my knif-" But at that point three Rabbits tackled him to the ground sending the knife sliding across the floor. They dragged North away telling him to calm down while he screamed about it not being his knife but something about him being crazy must have made them think he was lying. I couldn't imagine why.
So that was mostly the highlight of the party but a 25 year old guy did try and use his powers to move a table and when he couldn't he got so mad he repeatedly hit his head on the wall till he was taken away. That was pretty fun to watch. So that was my day, just like any other.
