The Psychiatrist

Part 1

The corridor lights were so artificial it was hard to imagine we were above ground. The tan tiles covered every inch of the building. It was easy to tell nothing good could come from this place.

"Alright my name is the Psychiatrist and we're gonna have oodles of fun," he announced "Now run!".

No one had ever escaped, he had told us. Some were never caught, but died of starvation. Not only were the odds not in our favor, but big-shot decided to take the lead.

" My name is Augustus, but every one calls me August" he introduced.

" I'm 16, and I was taken while walking to high school, and I'm pretty smart, how bout you all?" He asked.

"Freema, and I'm 18, so I'll lead," I argued.

"Good for you, but I called dibs, so back off!" He hollered.

This was ridiculous, some psycho was trying to kill us, and here we were arguing like children!

" Uh, I'm Barty, I'm 20, and I was kidna a pp ed a a a at uh uh cccccollege," he stuttered.

"Lou,15, and why are we wasting time?" She questioned.

" Lucas,15, um I'm Lou's twin," he introduced.

"Amanda,17, and I'm screwed," said a girl.

"Olivia, 11, and confused," a little girl cried.

The rest of the group introduced themselves, and then we began. August lead us through halls, and hid us in rooms. Occasionally a person would appear to capture us. Long nails scratched the walls, and people dropped like flies. In maybe an hour, only Lou,Lucas,August,Olivia,Barty,Amanda, and I were all who remained.

"Dang,we are all gonna die!" Screeched Amanda.

"Shut up!"scolded August.

Screech, went the fingers on the wall,and we all knew one was gonna go. Livia, as we now know her, is pulled away by a figure. I scream, she was only 11. Amanda begins to curse, but is dragged backwards.

" Run!" Screamed August.

We all obey, and run for our lives.

"Luke!" Screamed Lou.

Lucas was nowhere to be seen, but we all kept running even Lou.

Olive Benson walked towards Amber Hills Highschool. All of the sudden a sack slid over her head. She kicked, and screamed, but wound up in a trunk.

"The Psychiatrist home is happy home, yes a happy home indeed, where the souls run free until it's time to feed," sung the men who kidnapped her.

She rode for what felt like an hour, until they came to a stop. Then they flung her over their shoulders, and continued walking. Under a door they ducked, and didn't care that Olive's head smacked the door frame. The man carrying her began to complain if the weight.

"Just drag her," the friend suggested.

So there Olive was, in a sack, and being dragged across the floor. They stopped, and let her out of the sack.

"Run!" The whispered in her ear.

She did as she was told, but stumbled often. Her head throbbed, and everything around her was hazy. The screech of fingernails began to sound behind her. Olive stumbled trying to run, and then a hand grabbed her.

She was yanked into a closet, and had to force herself not to scream.
