Mental Institution, N27.

27

"Have you lost your mind?!" Jerry's eyes widened, looking at her like she's mentally ill or something. She huffed and tiredly rubbed her eyes.

"Just please believe me, Uncle Jerry. I'm telling the truth." She pleaded, way too tired to start a bickering with her uncle and he seemed to notice which caused his eyes to soften.

"Let me take you home and we will discuss this later." He placed an arm over her shoulder, she sighed and took a few steps along with him but immediately stopped when she remembered who she left behind.

She managed to hide Zayn from them but he can't stay hidden for long, they will find him and she can't let that happen. Her breath hitched as she weighed her options. Should she tell him and risk the consequences of his reaction or should she just leave Zayn behind and hope that they won't find him?

She can't leave him behind no matter what, she needs to make sure that he's safe.

"No, wait." She stopped walking, placing a hand on the wall to keep her steady, she feels like fainting due to her tiredness.

"What?"

"I'll ask something from you and please make it happen for me," She looked at him with such sadness in her eyes, she knew his condition and she knew what would come once he opens his eyes but she can't leave him, she loves him way too much to leave him.

"What do you want, love?" He furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at her in confusion. She gulped before opening her mouth to speak.

"Let patient number 27 come with me." She looked up at him, trying to pressure him into it by her intense gaze. His frown deepened at her request.

"You lied about him not being with you in that room?" He asked before pressing his lips in a tight line, she nodded her head, not ashamed to say that she did.

"Why would you lie to me, Perrie?" His tone was accusing, meant for her to feel guilt but she felt nothing.

"I was more lying to my father, he's  dangerous. I was trying to save him, Uncle. Father is going to kill him." The last part came out as a whisper but loud enough for Jerry to hear.

"Do you really think Alexander would do such a thing?" He asked in disbelief. He wanted to laugh at her, thinking that this is some kind of a joke but the way she was talking about it, pleading him to believe made him think otherwise. She was talking seriously.

"I didn't think so at the beginning but a lot of things happened that changed my mind." She closed her eyes as if in pain as she remembered the way he made his guards drag Daniel to the electric chair just seconds away from saving him.

"I can't help that patient, Alexander is looking for him."

"We'll sneak him out."

"Perrie-"

"Uncle, please. I'm begging you."

"Would it make a difference? Why is he special that you so desperately want to get him out of here to save him from getting murdered?" He said the last word as if it was the joke of the year, if he only knew.

"Can you just listen to me? You don't even know what's going on in here, everyone is in danger. Let me take him with me and then go to the hospital to make you believe the threat my father has become." She asked him so desperately, pleading him and nearly falling to her knees to make him believe that she's not lying.

"Fine."

She nearly cried of relief.

"But, If I find out that you've mistaken my brother's intentions, I'm going to hand him that patient myself." He frowned, feeling hesitant about his decision, However. She nodded her head quickly making him slightly believe her by just seeing how confident she is about it.

He took a hold of her hand, walking back to the room she was held in and she blinked the sleep out of her eyes, feeling excited about him being safe with her with nothing to threaten his life.

Their footsteps echoed through the hallway as she marched to the room, the guards immediately stood straighter at the sight of Jerry, their eyes moving from Jerry and eventually falling upon Perrie, suddenly showing fear. The word here goes around fast. She thought to herself.

"Alexander wants you down at the lab." Jerry ordered, authority radiating off him. The guards hesitated before nodding at him and rushing towards the lab, downstairs.

She let out a sigh before pushing the door open and Jerry watched the way for her, her eyes searched the place before they fell upon the scattered boxes everywhere, she frowned.

She stepped inside, walking towards a special pile of boxes. Pushing them out of her way, a glimpse of his body appeared making her sigh in relief. She pushed the rest away and revealed Zayn completely, he was still unconscious which was good, she had to get him out of here without anything interrupting her.

"Uncle Jerry," She called softly, trying as hard as she can not to make anyone hear except her uncle.

He immediately appeared on the door and walked quietly towards her, she walked around Zayn and stopped at his right side, bending with her uncle to pick him up off of the floor, with an arm wrapped around her neck and his other around Jerry's neck with his weight mostly on Jerry as they took him out.

"This building isn't big at all, we just have to go through one floor which has plenty of guards then we'll find the exit."

"How are we supposed to go through the floor below If it's plenty of guards?" She whispered, a deep frown on her face.

"Alexander's office is in the first floor, where the exit is. We'll just have to pretend that we're taking the patient to him."

"The guards will tell on you when Father asks, Uncle. Are you sure?" She asked, worried for him. She knows she's risking a lot getting him out of here but she also can't leave him here, she'd choose his life over hers anytime.

"If we're lucky we'll get out of here with no trouble." She bit the inside of her cheek as she hoped for the best, having a bad feeling at the bit of her stomach about the whole thing.

However, she nodded her head and they started walking downstairs, their eyes alert and body tense. Zayn took a deep inhale making Perrie look at him from the corner of her eye, hoping he wouldn't wake up now. She knows what'd follow.

Thankfully, the stairs continued their way to the first floor so they didn't have to go through the guards, they just need to be more careful not to be seen.

Small slow steps faded with the air as they successfully pass the second floor so they made sure no guards were down there, only two guards who were in a deep sleep in front of Alexander's office.

A groan escaped Zayn's lips as he squeezed his eyes shut making both Perrie and Jerry stiff.

"He's waking up!" Perrie whispered with horror in her eyes, panicked, she looked at the sleeping guards then back at Zayn and her uncle.

"So what? Let him wake up so he could walk for himself, my back is hurting." He frowned.

"No, he can't. He'll destroy the place. The injections they gave him mixed with all the pills he was taking is affecting his nervous system and certain brain cells which will cause a violent behaviour once he wakes up." She told him in a barely heard voice but he heard her clearly and he began to get worried.

Zayn began to groan even more but the last sound that got out of him was a growl which made her heart drop to her feet. He's waking up and It's no good.

"Let's go!" She whispered-yelled before rushing downstairs, taking Jerry by surprise making him stumble abit but he kept up with her.

Once they got off the stairs and started rushing to the exit,

Zayn's eyes snapped open.
