"Lucas,Lucas were here"mom said as I slowly woke "huh, where are we?" I asked,mom sighted and said "fresh start institute" "what! You're putting me In a mental institution" I yelled feeling betrayed by my own family.
We went inside as a lady dressed in scrubs greeted us "hello welcome to fresh start my name is Miranda. You must be Lucas I've heard a couple of things about you" they took me to an empty office where my parents said goodbye,I saw as they drove away. Seconds later a man in a white coat came in "Hello Lucas my name is DR . Reyes and I'm the doctor here at fresh start. We want you to feel at home here" I stood there quiet I still couldn't believe what my family had done.Then he said "nurse Miranda please escort our new friend into his room". She took me to a rather small room that had a tv,a bathroom, a bed and a desk with a pen and papers.
"This is your room now Lucas said nurse Miranda your first session starts tomorrow so get some rest.
I took a minute to look around my room it was a white room. I layed in bed as I talked to the soldier until I fell asleep. The next morning I woke up to the sound of my TV turning on DR. Reyes was giving some sort of announcement of food in the cafeteria I wasn't really interested, they took me down to a room it was he's office he tries talking to me but I was silent so he said "either you talk or you don't eat" and I said "I don't care I'm used to starving myself anyways" he looked at me a bit angry but quickly regained his composure "well Lucas it seems this method does not work we'll have to try ahem other methods" I looked at him a bit confused. I couldn't help but think about what these methods were so a few days later I asked him "DR. Reyes what other methods were you talking about?" "Oh" he said "I just said that to scare you".
A few weeks passed and everything was "normal" every morning the cafeteria announcements, the group sessions. It felt as if my life revolved around this cycle and I was getting sick of it.
I've been in here for almost six months and one day one of the other patients had a disorder that made him violent, it felt as if the nurse threw him at me because he started to hit me and tried to kill me, he was like a bully of sorts. I heard a little voice telling me to do it. Two nights after that I snuck into his room and stabbed him 14 times. Over the next week I started to hear other voices and started becoming a bit violent so much I killed two more patients. At night they put me in the isolation room.
The next morning the doctor comes into my room and calmly asks me what happened last night so I told him "I stabbed hank to death 14 times while he slept" and he asked "and why did you do this" i said "because" I pause for a second before getting my breath and saying "because he tried to kill me so I killed him first".
DR. Reyes left and during the next day he filled some transfer papers so they could send me to the New Life Asylum.
I was scheduled to be transfered next week.
