(Hello, if this even gets any reads...but with killmondays new game Little Misfortune being one of my new obsessions, it also got me back into fran bow sooooo i thought I'd get going on this work a little bit :) hope you enjoy this chapter. I haven't written in here for while so if this gets alot of votes and attention then ill keep going)

"Alright, so about this plan..." I completely faced her with a serious expression, "you have my full and undivided attention, let me hear it." She brushed her hair out of her face and look around the room, scrutinizing the occupants. The only others that were in here was phillp, a boy brought in for nothing more than paranoia, and Gladys. She was one of the nurses I despised, a rotten old hag she was (not to mention that gun she hid in her desk, god only knows what thats for). She was fully occupied with the paperwork on her desk, and phillp was disassociated. She leaned in and whispered,

"Ok, the nurse at the desk hid my pills I took before I came in here. I need those, my kitty came to me in my knock out dream and said those would help me escape and find him! Maybe they'll help you too!"

A blank look settled upon my features, I didn't want to but I nearly started giggling. I snapped myself out of it and decided to listen to more of what she had to say. I don't know what I was expecting to hear, I mean, I was in the nut house after all!

"Before you continue, would it be alright to ask you something?"

"But you just did!" She giggled. I rolled my eyes at her and chuckled,

"Charming, but honestly, how are these pills going to help you?" She crossed her arms and acquired a brainiac attitude,

"Well, when I took that first pill in Dr. Deernes office, I hallucinated so severely, they were so vivid and vulgar. I don't think I could explain it to you without fainting again. Unfortunately, I must take them again to see if maybe, what I see while on the pills is actually there now, and I just can't see it  without the pill! I think it's called duotine?"

"Uh. Ok um...That's alot to process... but I think we could try snatching those pills from her. Anything else?" She nodded,

"I spoke to Phillp before I woke you, he said the yellow door is the way out and that there's a code we have to find in the office to disable the alarm. Then we have to get to the drain pipe in the hedge maze! It'll lead us outside of the asylum walls." She finished her statements with a nod of the head and a proud smirk.

I thought about it, everything she said with the exception of the pills and her cat dream made sense. I noticed something, just behind Fran, the curtain on the wall was coming loose, just one pull of the hook and it'll fall. My lip curled in a mischievous smile and I thought of a way to distract the nurse.

"Fran, I think I have an idea..." Her eyes gleamed with interest.

"Do tell!" I guided her eyes toward the lose curtain hook,

"We can distract the nurse by breaking the curtain, you hold onto the hook so she'll have to leave the room and find something to fix it! Then we can search her desk for your medicine!" She jumped up from the bed,

"Brilliant! We're getting along great Miss (Y/n)! We're going to be the cleverest ladies in the whole building!" I loved her enthusiasm.

Now...hopefully this plan will work...

~~~
S-u-c-c-e-s-s

That is how you spell success! The distraction worked perfectly! The nurse was gone and fran had been reunited with her medicine, now to just find our way out of this damn room.

"The stupid door is locked, do you know where she keeps the key, Phillp?" Fran's inquiry was punctuated with a head tilt toward the young boy.

"..yes..but he doesn't want me to tell you.." he spoke monotonously as always.

"Who...?" I asked already regretting asking this question.

"...him." He pointed in the center of the room, the was the last thing I could recall before my body hit the ground with a loud thud.

~~~~

(y/n).....(Y/n)....(Y/N)!!!

My eye snapped open as I shot up to a upright position, I instantly looked around for Fran. She sat by my side with her hand grasping my shoulder.

"Goodness! Are you alright?! Did you see the monster?! Please tell me you did! He scared you so bad you passed out thats what happened, right?" I rubbed my head, trying to soothe it from the impact on the linoleum, I noticed wetness on my cheeks and my eyes burned. I rubbed my face and nearly freaked out when I saw blood, wonderful I'm crying blood.

"Fran! Honey, slow down! What...what monster-" I paused,

"What did the monster look like?" I turned around and held her blue eyes with my (E/c) gaze.

"Um, he has a goat skull, all black with white eyes. Please tell me you seen him (Y/n)!"

I had seen him before, when my parents were murdered...that was the thing I saw in my house. The last thing I saw before I again...went unconscious at my home and woke here. That was weeks ago...and now he's showing up again..what could he be after?

"Yes Fran...I have seen him before..What exactly happened while I was out?"

"It truly was awful...that monster has absolutely no manners! He was giant, larger than I remembered him. He told me you and I would be a prisoners of the darkness if we escaped. That we would go mad!"

"Isn't that why we're here?" I mused outloud.

Don't be smart, my darling...

I reacted quite harshly when I heard this. I wouldn't have if it didn't come from inside my head. I keened and smacked my hand to my ear, shaking my head.

"Who was that?!" I cried out looking around the room.

"What's wrong?" Fran asked, then I got an idea,

"Fran, let me have one of those pills" she gave me a tentative look.

"Are you sure? (Y/n) the things you're going to see will scar you, you'll be desensitized to every horrible thing you can think of!" I chortled and shook my head.

"Oh Fran, I have nothing left to lose!" I held out my hand, waiting for the red capsule. She gave me a worried glance and hesitated. "The pill, Fran. Now."

She set it in my hand,

"Just...be careful." I looked down and the capsule in my palm. I closed my eyes, tossed it back into my mouth and swallowed it dry. I waited and waited...until I felt it coming. But that didn't make me ready...

Fran warned me and I didn't listen.

Ok! So! I don't really know how to incorporate the game into a story that include the reader yet so this is just me treading into unknown waters. So let me know if this is ok?? I'm hoping it is because I'm literally just...writing. But heres another chapter after...what...3 years? I don't know but lets just see what this turns into? Alright sounds good! Hopefully another chapter will be out, soon.
