Part Five: Trapped

A guard entered one night. Hannah had my blanket and her's as she sat curled up and asleep in her far corner of the room. The guard came to me, I sat awake. He grabbed my arm and pulled me from the ground,"Come with me," he spoke quietly, not to wake Hannah.

    I hesitantly let him cuff my hands behind my back and pull me out of the cell. Hannah had't moved, but as I left I took one last glance at her. An emerald green eye stared back at me. She was awake, and aware something was wrong.

    The guard shoved me out the door into a darkened hallway. There was no sound, not even the usual muffled snoring coming from cell 29. Only a shiny plaque saying 36 stood out to me, it was my cell. Our cell. I turned back to the cell once more, noticing a small rabbit ear wedged in the door frame.

    A sneaky princes, aren't you. I thought and faced forward again. My guard pushed me into a room with a desk, and person on the other side of the desk. He was wearing a uniform and accompanied by two more in suits," Mr. Liam O'brien, do I have some news for you." the man smiled, overjoyed with himself.

    "I haven't done anything," I protested.

    "Oh but I beg to differ!" he shot back,"These case files all point to you! Every. Single. Detail."

    "What case?" I asked, trying to peer over the papers scattered around the desk. He blocked my view with his arm and glared up at me.

    The man got up and paced towards me, then began to speak,"A few moths ago, four bodies were found on an abandoned fishing boat in your home town. The bodies seemed to have been placed there each at a different time," the man sat down and collected the papers in a neat stack,"All before when you were put into this hospital."

    "You're saying I murdered four people?"

    " I know you did."

    "Thats insane!" I argued,"I was only thirteen before I was put in this place!"

    "But you're mentally unstable, in the sense you would kill a person." the man said emotionless.

    I growled beneath my breath,"I don't kill, I tortue." then I smiled," Killing would take the pain away..."

    The man looked shocked at my reaction, but before he could speak, there was a gunshot and the door flew open. Standing in the door frame was Hannah. With a gun pointed at the man holding onto my arm.

The guard was distracted so I took the opportunity and ripped my arm from his grasp, then kicked him between the legs. He dropped to the ground in pain. A few guards emerged from the shadows and charged at Hannah who, without hesitation, shot at them.

    They wore bullet proof vests, so a shot to the chest wouldn't do much. But a shot to the unprotected head would kill. And that's what she did. There were now four bleeding men on the floor.

    I went towards Hannah, and faced my cuffed hands towards her. She lifted her leg and brought her foot down on the chain, snapping it in half,"Thanks princess." I smiled as she tossed me a gun.

    "Wouldn't want my cell mate hurt, now would I?" she smiled with a new confidence. Then turned towards the rest of the men,"Liam didn't kill those men," she shouted and paused after. Hannah turned to me and back to the man in uniform at the desk,"My sister did, with my help."
