Asylum Mental Institution (TW and TVD)

Chapter 9

"Kat?"

My name sounds throughout the room, echoing into a haunting whisper. I can feel the sinister grin on his lips, it's him.

...

I turn around, counting each and every one of my breaths as I face him. The scar is faintly there, the memory rushes to quickly through my brain before I can catch it and a frown settles on my face.

"Hello Kat." He smirks.

It's too late when the guards are across the hall but my body is already on top of his, my hands crushing his face. All I see is red. Red from the blood dripping from his nose. Red from my mothers favorite lipstick. Red from the anger in my eyes. Red from my heating cheeks. Just red. Rage is coursing through me blocking out every emotion except that one. Voices in my head pound into my skull all whispering things at once. I can't take it anymore.

He killed your mother.

He's the reason you're in here.

He's dangerous.

"Kat, stop it. Stop!!!" My arms are pushed back by Dr. McCall. Her confused facial expression makes me realize what I just did. I scoot back in terror as I see so many eyes staring at me. One set of eyes are two familiar. My breathe kicks in and my heart drops as I see my baby brother standing at the door with my aunt.

"Jake." I almost whisper. "Jake!" I stand up and see him flinch as I take a step towards him. His eyes are weary almost as if he's afraid of me.

"Well love, that's no way to treat a guest." Klaus speaks behind me. I ignore every little thing happening around me because somehow my eyes can't leave my brothers and I'm forced to watch as his hope to see me crumbles in his tears.

"Take her away." Two guards grab my arms and start pulling me toward a dark hallway. No no no. Jake. I become frantic, my brother, I need to see him. Rick spits blood down across my feet, his eyes force there way to mine and he smiles. Tears pour from my eyes, I struggle out from the guards grips but they easily pick me up again. I scream as everybody becomes father away from me and the tears blur my vision. How could I be so stupid? I had the chance to see my brother and I ruined it.

"Where do we take her?"

"Room 6. Dungeon."

Chills go through my spine. What is the dungeon? My face falls immediately, at least 20 sets of stairs are in front of me, all a faded black color growing darker as you walk further into them. I whimper softly, my mind spinning with scary thoughts.

"Where are you taking her?!" Malia's voice echoes through the stairs. Footsteps gather around her, I look back to see her and Lydia at the top step watching fearfully as each stair down becomes closer to hell. Or the asylums version of hell. Who am I kidding this whole place is hell.

"You know where." One of the guards say wickedly. I hear Lydia gasp and my heart sinks. "Get back to your families now."

My heads spinning as I see think about Jake. Why was he here? Who came with him?

I scream as the guard pushes my arm across my body bending it slightly. My eyes pierce up to see a caged room with the number 6. The bars are rusted with brown and red, the walls sleek with mold and a dark, cold ground with remnants of glass. I'm thrown in the cage, my body landing heavily on the ground. I groan, trying to sit up but I fail miserably. My hand moves to my head, the smell and feeling of blood stains onto my fingers. I inhale the metal binge of red and feel the vomit filling up in my throat.
