She snuck out of the house. I trailed behind her still unsure if I should trust her. She dove into some bushes as the cops whirred past. I was confused as to what she was doing. We must have walked for another 20 minutes before we turned to somebody's yard.

I hung back, she knocked on the door immediately answered by a man in a white lab coat. He looked familiar somehow.  He seemed to recognize her. They talked. At one point Kate pointed at me. He looked up but didn't seem to see me. He grabbed Kate by the collar and shoved her into the house. 

i followed without thinking. The man yelled at kate for what seemed like forever. she looked terrified so i spoke up. "leave her alone!" I yelled. the man looked over at me obviously very surprised to see me there. "who-who are you?" he asked looking like he'd seen a ghost. "that's jax, the kid i told you about. i made him up and there he is" kate piped up.

the man walked toward me slowly. he had a creepy look on his face as he neared me. the man seemed  so familiar ... 

i couldn't seem to place that face until he said "my name is dr. shire. i'm a mental therapeutic scientist at the asylum downtown." i became scared of him, and i didn't even know why! his gaze was hypnotic. i became tired. he took me by the sleeve to a room with a table filled with chemicals and what looked like doctor's equipment. only it was ten times scarier.

the doctor took jax to his experimentation room. there was what looked like a birdcage in the corner. to be honest i don't know why i thought to come here, but i figured shire would know what to do with jax, i sure didn't.
