Yes, Cry's play through of Mad Father inspired me to make this. It technically isn't exactly like the game, but I thought it would be fun to write a book based off it. Please enjoy!

"Papa? Will you play with me?" My five year old self asked my father. I hear his footsteps make their way to the door and it opens revealing my father. He wore a white lab coat so clean, that it almost looked like he hadn't wore it in forever. His spectacles sat on the bridge of his nose, which he pushed them up to keep them from falling off. His work pants looked dirty. Probably from working all day in the basement. His pale skin look deathly white as if he saw a ghost! Maybe from the lack of sunlight. His black hair falls over his big, intelligent green eyes that we both share. He smiles down at me. "Penelope, honey, you know I have to work." He says

I sigh. "But you always work! Playing by myself is no fun!" I whine and cross my arms. Father picks me up and carries me in the basement. I've been down here plenty of times and there's a lot of amazing things down here. But father tells me not to play down here at all. Especially in the room in the very back.

Father puts me down in a chair next to the table he's working on and walks towards it. "I won't be long, honey. I'm almost done and then we'll play as long as you want. Okay?" He says to me. I nod. "Yes papa!" He smiles and turns back to his work. I swing my legs back and forth and look around the basement. The room is filled with little tanks filled with water. A couple of them have huge blankets over them. A table with some paper and other stuff is in the corner of the room on my right. A bin overflowed with paper is next to the table. A couple of crates, boxes, and bags completes the room. I scan the room one last time and my eyes land on the door that I'm not allowed to go in.

Curious, I get up and walked towards it. A big lock keeps the door from opening. I stand on my tippy toes to reach it but two hands grab me and pulls me upward. I turn my head and see miss Lonnie, the house maid. "Miss Lonnie!" I say happily. "Lady Penelope.", she starts, "You know you're not allowed to be near this door."

"I know, but father promised to play with me when he's done working!" I speak and she sets me down on my feet. "Well, okay. But as long you don't go near that door or break anything. Understand?" She tells me. "Yes ma'am!" I reply. She smiles and walks over to father to assist him. I walk around the lab and stop occasionally to look at things that catches my eye.

After exploring, I start returning to father and miss Lonnie when I see something floating in a tank a few centimeters away from me. I walk to it and peek under the blanket that's over it. I couldn't get a good look because father called for me. I look back at the tank and started heading over to father.

I could've sworn I saw bright blue eyes staring back at me.
