Mad as a Hatter

Chapter 5

 "Break out? How the hell are we gonna do that," I asked before having a hand shut over my mouth. She shh'd me before smiling and saying,

"I'm glad you asked, beef roast! We're getting out the same way Cassius did, well we're not dying. Though I wouldn't mind finding out what that creature tastes like. Chicken? Ham? Pork? Beef? Dare I hope, BACON?! Oh my god, did you know the more drunk a person is the more they start tasting like bacon!? It's so good! Also, did you know you can categorize people into meal slots?! Vegans are salads, druggies are candy, drunks are bacon, people with diabetes are people you eat when you wanna go on a diet, fat people are deserts, skinny people are appetizers, oh and-"

"Luc! You're making me hungry," I yelled, rolling my eyes. She shrugged a little before saying,

"Whatever, I'll treat you to dinner when we get out."

"Two problems with that. One, we're broke and two, your idea of dinner is people," I stated, making her scratch the back of her head before nodding in agreement. She then walked over to the door and knocked on it before asking,

"Hello! I happened to lose my favorite fork, it's very important to me, could you help me find it?" A guard walked into the room, glaring as he asked,

"You're not supposed to be in here and what's this about a fork?" Before I had time to think of an answer Luc pulled out a fork and jammed it into his neck before pulling it out and licking up any blood and skin that was left on it, smiling down at him before saying,

"Oops, would you look at that? Looks like I found my fork! Thanks for your help, kind sir!" Without saying anything else she began to devour the man with a cheery smile. I sighed some before asking,

"Um, Luc, can't you eat later?" She looked up before nodding and grabbing one more mouth full before taking my hand in her bloody one and skipping down the hall as she explained,

"Lupe is waiting for us in the wing we saw on the television like a good little morsel, don't worry! Now, all we have to do is take a....um....a....my gut tells me we need to go....left!"

"Should we trust your gut," I asked, raising an eyebrow before she said,

"I always trust my gut."

"Your gut tells you to eat people," I said, narrowing my eyes.

"Exactly," she exclaimed, smiling widely. I rolled my eyes before jogging down a long hallway before being pulled off to the side by Luc. I yelped and glared at her before yelling,

"What the ever loving fuck you human eating weirdo?!" She laughed before saying,

"I just saved your ass from running off a cliff." I stopped before looking over to see a very large drop in the hallway. What the actual fuck? Why the hell is that here? I shook my head before muttering,

"I knew that was there."

"Sure you did," she said in a sarcastic tone before I said,

"I did, maybe I'm just suicidal." She nodded before saying,

"Alright, come on! I'll fulfill your suicidal needs now!"

"What," I questioned before being pushed off the cliff and plummeting down as I yelled,"Fucking bitch!"

"I'm coming, lamb chops," I heard above me. Did she have to keep calling me food names? I yelped as I made contact with the floor before groaning loudly as my cannibalistic friend landed on top of me. We both got up and looked each other over before I said,

"No broken bones, you?" She shook her head before skipping down the hall. I soon followed her, looking around before noticing a figure ahead of us."Lupe," I called out, jogging towards him. He turned around before smiling and nodding, saying,

"Hey guys, took ya long enough."

"I had a little snack on the way,"Luc explained before noticing something and asking,"Hey, you okay?" I looked over at him and noticed the slight panic in his eyes.

"Guys, the subject, they let it loose and it's-" he was cut off as the creature from earlier tore into his neck and began ripping him apart, sticking a claw into his eyes and yanking it out before tossing it over.

"Run," I yelled before watching Luc run ahead, stop, turn around, pick up the eye, put it in her mouth, then continue running as I yelled,"Seriously!?"

"I have a problem, shut up," she yelled back. We ran down a hall before she yelled,"Hey! It's the laundry shoot!" I looked over and noticed it. It was rusty and looked like it hadn't been used in ages. Shaking my head, we ran over and forced the opening up before having Luc climb in first then me. I screamed as my foot was grabbed, turning around to see the creature holding said foot and trying to eat it. "Hey! If anyone eats my little T-bone right here, it's gonna be me," Luc yelled before stabbing the subject in the eyes with her fork. She pulled away without it before my arms hooked around her waist and I pulled her deeper into the chute as she yelled,"No! My fork!"

"I'll buy you a new one, come on," I snapped back before sliding down the chute with her in my lap. I groaned as we came out and slammed into a tree outside. We stood up before noticing the infamous Dr. Murik and Nurse Juliette. I growled softly before hearing Luc say,

"I'll get the nurse if you get Murik. I've always hated doctors, taste like cough syrup anyway." I chuckled softly before nodding and splitting away from her. I looked around before climbing into a tree and pulling out some leftover string I had. As soon as I saw the bastard I swung down from the tree and knocked him to the ground, tying his hands together before tying and other string around his neck. I then tied him up so he was dangling from a branch before climbing up and swung down so I was right in front of him.I then placed my thumbs on his eyes and slowly started adding more force as I pushed. Eventually, his eyes were mush as I giggled at his screams. I then said,

"That's for locking me up." I then ripped off one of his fingernails and one of his canine teeth before saying,"That's for Cass." I then forced his mouth to stay open as I grabbed his tongue and ripped it out, muttering with a sadistic smile,"That's for Lupe." I quickly reached up before taking the string around his neck and tying it to the branch, untie the other one and hoping down to watch as the light faded from his eyes and the last shred of life in him drained away before saying,"And that, was because fuck you." I heard footsteps behind me, making me turn around before seeing a surprisingly not bloody Luc smiling at the doctor as she spoke,

"Nice work, Pork chop. Come on, let's get going." I paused before frowning and shaking my head, saying,

"There's one more thing I have to do, I'll catch up with you.
