Now, I woke up standing up with a metal leash and chain around my neck. There is light, but not a lot of it, and it looked like there was more than the eye could see. Then suddenly more lights appear in front of me and on the left side of the now appearing hallway said, "How far can you go?" it was written in blood. Guess it wants me to go forward. So, I try it was easy at first until another pair a lights switch on. This time it said, "Give up while it easy." I didn't listen to it, of course, so I continued to go forward. I was struggling a little I manage to get to the next checkpoint. I kept moving when I read the sigh not wanting to go back. As I was moving the wall said this, "You're not going to win." Oh yes, I will even it was easier said than done. This round I was sweating like crazy and each step I took, I felt like time was slowing down. I can't give up I have to beat this, and then I saw it a bright light coming from an opened doorway. And right before my hand was on the door it slammed shut with the same words in blood saying, "No One can win the game of life." And before I knew what was going to happen next my chain was pulling so hard I flew from my feet going all that way back. Back to the beginning and that when my whole body slammed me into that concrete wall knocking me out of dreamland.

"Ugh, my head," I said

I was in the back of a police car driving somewhere. I tried moving my hand I couldn't I already knew that I would probably be handcuffed.

"Look who finally awake. Good morning sunshine or should I say good night." Rick said the policeman I punch before he knocked the shit of me.

My jaw still hurts from that I guess they didn't bother cleaning me up because I still tasted blood my mouth. I always hated the taste of blood I always cringe when I see vampire movies.

"So, how long was I out for?" I asked

"Let me see I think around 12 hours," Rick said

"12 HOURS! So, long how we been driving and where are you even taking me?" I said panicked.

"Slow your horses there buddy you're acting like you're going to execution," Rick said.

"Am I?" I said worriedly.

"No, look the asylum is a long for where I knock you out," Rick said.

"The asylum, but I already said I'm not crazy," I said

" Kid, crazy or not I would prefer the asylum than the prison even though I never been to one. It can't be worse than our prison." Rick said

But, something was telling me he was wrong. DEAD WRONG. After that conversation the whole car was now silent and not for a short time it felt like ages. Then, finally, a sigh appear I don't why I'm excited I'm just bored what else could I do play I Spy by myself.

Anyway, the sign said, "Welcome to Judas's Asylum." and for a second I swear it said Todd maybe I'm really am going crazy. As we pull up to the toll booth probably wanting to see the policeman I.D. before going in. The first thing I noticed was this place looked massive on the outside how could this be better than prison it looks like you get no freedoms in there. It had these massive steel gates and steel walls with barbed wired on the top of it. And just looking at the front I could already see more than 5 security cameras. As the Rick put his I.D. back into his pocket and he looks at me.

"This is your stop, Kid," Rick said.

And before I knew the door opened on my side and pulled me out of the police car onto the gravel They grabbed both of my arms I tried to struggle, but it was no use and where would I go if I did get free from their hands. They pick me up and put me in a wheelchair and strap me in like a wild animal. Then, I was the police car back up and drive away while they push me to the now opening giant doors. The place looks like a prison on the outside, but on the inside, it looks like a nice hotel not too fancy and not too shitty. I think I'll like it here and then he appeared. I think he was the owner, but he looks just like Todd.

"Todd?" I said curiously.

"What, no how do you know about my deadbeat twin brother." The doctor said.

"Twin brother?" I said

Todd didn't have a twin brother. Did he? No, he didn't I'm sure of it.

"Where are my manners I'm Judas Brown," Judas said.

"My name is Noah Ross," I said.

What I'm doing I talking to the person who murders my fiancee.

"Well I'm sorry to inform you, but because how late it is we can't show you a tour. It bedtime gentleman take this fine man to his room." Judas said like he was talking to a bunch of kids.

So, they took me away to my room. This place is massive as I was being pushed on my wheelchair. I saw a cafeteria, a play yard, and a mystery door that says employee only on it. I'm totally gonna break in there and like that, I was next to my room.

"Here your room #0513717," One of the masked man said, "And because it's your first night here you're in Tier One."

"What Tier One?" I asked.

"This building contains 3 Tiers and which tier you're on is how many privileges and freedoms you get. First Tier you get all your freedom like going outside or having a later bedtime. The second Tier you get fewer freedoms than number One you can't go outside and not allowed to hold certain things like sharp objects. The Third Tier is the worse you have no freedoms somebody watching you 24/7 and you're in your cell all day long until of course, we think you're ready to go back to Tier Two. So, we reward for good behavior, so don't do anything stupid. He said.

"Ok," I said.

After that, I was released from my wheelchair I almost fell what felt like ages of sitting and went to my room. They closed the door and surprising there no camera in here. I decided to go to bed it's been a long day today. So, I went asleep not knowing what tomorrow would bring me. And don't worry I will escape and kill Todd Brown.
