My Parents My Patients - DC Next Generation

Chapter Ten

Several hours later......

Olive's POV
I wake up and look around,hearing beeping and seeing only white. "No."I mutter,"no no No No No No No NOOO!!"I scream out,ripping all of the things out of my arms. The nurses came running in,"Miss Quinzel,please calm down."they said. "NO! Get me out of this hell hole,I was stuck here for eleven years! Get me out of this place,I'm not insane."I yelled,getting up out of my bed,instantly falling to the ground. One of the nurses came over with a needle. "No,stay away from me"I said,shuffling backwards,I felt something hard behind me,the nurse smiled. "Sweety,this will only take two seconds."she said and bent down,jabbing the needle into my neck and pouring the content into my bloodstream. "Get. That. Thing. Outta me meow."I started feeling drowsy,my eyelids started to get droopy. I couldn't resist it any longer,whatever they put in my bloodstream,made me go to sleep.

"Miss Rowena,please be careful around Dr Quinzel. She's had a horrible past. Maybe we could decorate her room a little bit for her stay here. She is in a very bad mental state."the person I assume is my doctor says to a nurse. "But Dr Mallory,this young lady is insane,she needs mental help."The nurse argued to Dr Mallory. "Absolutely not!"Dr Mallory said sternly,"she stays here at Gotham Hospital until she is better and then she goes back to work. Under no circumstances are you or any other nurse to admit her to Gotham Insane Institution."he turned on his heel,"I trust that you will take good care of our patient Miss Rowena."
"If course doctor."Miss Rowena said. "Good now,go see if she's awake yet. Nurse Teller gave her a very high dosage of drought of death. I'd be surprised if she survived,not many patients make it through that sleep alive."Dr Mallory said leaving. Miss Rowena walked in muttering to herself. I pretended to be asleep. "Oh please tell me that you're alive,doctor Mallory would kill me if you were dead."Miss Rowena said,taking a seat in the chair next to my bed. I stirred a bit and opened my eyes,"What time is it?"I chocked out,not realising how dry my throat actually was. Miss Rowena looked at me,"Oh child,you are a lucky soul. "She said peering down at her watch,"It's 7:40pm,I will go get you a drink."she got up. "Wait,where am I?"I asked,curious how she would answer my question. "Oh. You're in Gotham Hospital. You had a horrible incident at the Asylum."Miss Rowena answered walking away. I smiled,"I'm insane you stupid bitch."I whispered,"and Dr Mallory is right,I'm never going back to the Institution again."I laughed,and cried. Finally,ripping the drip out of my arm and cutting the word 'Free' Into my arm with the needle,screaming in pain as I did,when I was done,I move up to my left shoulder and drew a heart,in cursive letter the words,'Insane Abused Hurt' trough the heart. The blood started running down my arm but I didn't care,my white sheets stained red. On my left wrist I carved a H and on the right a J. I screamed out in pain one last time before taking in a deep breath. I snapped back into reality and looked down at myself,I was cover in blood,"NURSE!"I screamed before passing out.

I woke up,my memory foggy,I glanced down at my arms to see bandages,one on my left wrist,the left arm hand one going from my wrist to my elbow. I tried to sit up and winced in pain,I glared at my left shoulder and saw a bandage. Miss Rowena walked in with Dr Mallory behind her. "Olive,Miss Rowena tells me that you cut yourself multiple times with the dip needle. Would you care to explain why?"he asked,sitting at the edge of my bed. "I did what now?"I asked,just as confused as them,"all I remember is waking up asking Miss Rowena what time it was and where I was,she left then blood and then I blacked out."I explained. "So you have no recollection of anything after Miss Rowena left?"He asked,looking at me with a worried look. "None at all,I swear on my life."I said,my head throbbing. "Okay Olive,get some rest. I will see you in a few days to determine whether you are well enough to leave the hospital or not."Dr Mallory got up. "I look forward to that day Dr Mallory. "I said honestly,I just wanted to get back to work. "Goodbye Dr Quinzel. "He left. "You are a very silly girl,cutting yourself with that needle."Miss Rowena said,placing a cup of water on the table next to me. I just laid back down and went back to sleep.
