Along Came a Murderer

Drown Your Sorrows

In the "play room", I asked to use the bathroom. As I was walking in, a short guy grabbed my arm. "Please, Alice, I need you to kill me. The doctors won't, but I know you will. Please."

I wasn't sure how to respond to this. He seemed pretty desperate. I nodded my head and then walked to the last stall. "So, how do you want to do this?" He pointed at the toilet. "Drown me."

I looked a little puzzled. "You can't do it yourself?" He looked down at his feet in shame. "I've tried, believe me." He got on his knees and then turned his head towards the toilet. "Whenever you're ready."

I grab the back of his head and he plunges into the water. I hold him down, as time went by. It was about 1 minute until he starts running out of air. He motions me to let him run out of air, and keep his head down. While this happened, guards bursted in. "It's been too long, Cooper. Where are you!?!" I ducked down so they wouldn't see me or who ever I was drowning.

The guards went around asking all of the men who were in the bathroom. They all pointed at the last stall on the left. The guards made their way towards us, and saw me sticking someone's head into the toilet. They picked me up by my neck and threw me on the floor. One guard held me down while the other checked on the guy. He was already dead. I smiled. "You're welcome."

They picked me up and carried me out. "Hey, I didn't get to use the bathroom." The guards didn't respond. They threw me back into the "play room" to interact with people. "If we ever find you trying to hurt or kill someone, you'll be the one who gets hurt!" They slammed and locked the doors as I stood up and made my way towards everyone, even though they're still scared of me. I've killed 16 people now. Of course they'd still be scared of me.

I sat down on the couch and covered up with the cleanest blanket I could find. I was freezing and my hands smelled terrible from sticking them into the toilet to kill that guy. I looked over at the lady who was in charge of watching and giving everyone food and water. I got up from the couch and walked over to her.

"What can I get you, sir." I didn't want food, nor water. "Can I just wash my hands?" She looked at me with a blank expression. She then smiled politely. "Sure, honey. Go right on ahead."

She got up and unlocked the door. I walk over to the sink and get some soap and began washing my hands. The water was warm, which was a surprise because every time I took a shower, the water was freezing. I turned it off and dried my hands. I then paused for a moment.

I turned to look at the nurse. She looked worried that I would try something.

Kill her.

"What?" I asked. The nurse raised her eyebrow. "I didn't say anything."

Walk over to her, take that fork, and shove it down her throat.

"But I'll get in trouble." She backed away and hit the wall. She reached her hand toward the phone.

She's trying to call security. Kill her.

I ran toward her and grabbed her neck and picked her up off the ground. She was gasping for air and struggling to break free. I grabbed a fork and stabbed it into her neck and she dropped to the floor. Blood started dripping from her neck and mouth. I kneeled down, she was barely alive.

I knife and stabbed her until she didn't look human. I dropped the knife and noticed that I was covered in blood. What will I do now?! I searched for some clean clothes and changed in the room. I washed the blood off of my hands, face, and feet. I threw the bloody clothes away and walked out, closing the door behind me.

I walked back to the couch and covered up with a blanket. I laid down and turned to look at the other patients. "If any of you wake me up, you'll all be dead." They all shook their head and I rested my head. I then fell asleep, forgetting what I just did.
