It had been a couple weeks since my conversation with Penny. Jerome had came to bug me a couple more times, but other than that, people had left me alone. And I had fixed things with Penny. Sort of.

Dr. Thorn said I was doing great and I would be out of here within a week at least. That was good news. I admitted to him that I killed my siblings, even though I didn't. But I knew it would be considered 'progress'.

Everyone at Arkham had someone new to stare at, and this girl liked the attention. It was a woman, at least in her thirties. She was blonde, skinny, and pretty. Like a model.

Penny was ranting on about something, I wasn't really listening until I heard her mumble "what the hell?" I looked over and saw a man start coughing. The man fell over and blue gas started to come out his mouth.

Penny and I both stood at the same time. What the hell is going on?

Everyone in the room began to cough and fall over, including me and Penny. My lungs felt like they were clogged and my vision began to blur.

Was I dying?
