[Alex P.O.V.]

She was so easy to mess with, it's funny.

She took me to the first floor to look for my cell. Hah. The poor thing. My room was on the second floor. When I told her we passed it, I wasn't exactly lying. The lie was that it wasn't on the second floor when it was.

I look at her. She seems uneasy. She looks at the cells then looks at me, expecting me to confirm whether it's my cell or not. Like that'll happen. I look back at her when she looks at me.

[Cake P.O.V.]

I look at the cells then look at him. He looks at me back. I feel like he's judging me.

We go through half of the first floor and nothing. Either it's not on the second and possibly the first floor, or the patient was lying. Might be that.

We keep checking the first floor until we run into someone, and that person was Taylor.

"H-Hey Taylor..."

"There you are."

Uh oh.

"Where have you been?!"

"Looking for the patient's room...?"

"Why are you on the first floor?" She asked, slightly annoyed.

"Because I'm looking for the patient's room?" I said, both scared and confused.

"His room is on the second floor." She said, looking at me, disappointed.

"Wait...what? It's on the second floor?!"

"Yes. It is on the second floor."

I look at the patient.

"Why didn't you tell me?!"

"I did. I just lied to you that we hadn't passed it," the patient said while smiling.

I didn't know what to say or how to react. The patient lied to me. I should've seen that coming.

"So let me get this straight. This boy has been leading you on a wild goose chase, correct?"

"I think?"

She sighed. She walked over to the patient, who was laughing.

"You think this is funny, don't you?"

He stopped laughing, looked at her, and smiled.

"Of course. This is hilarious to me."

She grabbed him by the shirt.

"You've been a thorn in my side for the longest time."

"The feeling is mutual, Taylor Wilson."

"Huh? How do you-"

He laughed maniacally.

"I know things Taylor. I know a lot about this place. I know everyone and everything."

I looked into his eyes. They weren't the same as when I saw them before. Once sparkling yet dulls eyes, now filled with madness and insanity.

Taylor proceeded to hit him. He only continued to laugh.

"You're fucking insane."

"Aren't we all Taylor? Or at least you. I don't get why you were-"

She hit him again. He didn't seem to mind getting hit. He seemed to enjoy it.

"Shut the hell up!"

He laughed even more.

"You're mad! Insane!"

"Yes. Yes! Yes I am! I'm insane! We all are! All of us are insane. There is no such thing as a sane person! Some people are more insane than others. HAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Taylor knocked him to the ground and kept beating him. He kept laughing. I was standing there, watching. I wasn't sure what to do. I was scared.

Taylor then pulled out a taser. She was going to tase him.

Seeing the taser, he kneed her in the stomach. She dropped the taser. He got behind her and started to choke her using his handcuffs.

Taylor tried to struggle, but it was useless. He wasn't going to let go. Instead, he was going to kill her.

I look around to see if there's anything I can use to stop him. I spot the taser, and I picked it up.

Taylor will die if you don't do it. He's too dangerous. Just get it over with and tase him.

I walked up behind him and tased him. I didn't want to. I didn't, but it was for the best.

He let her go. He screamed out in pain before falling to the ground.

He was stunned. Not sure for how long, but he was nonetheless. I think.

It was horrible, and I hated doing that. I was scared and terrified. I felt like breaking down right there on the spot.

Taylor picked him up and took him to his room. Jacob came and did his best to comfort me. It was nice of him to do. It was, but I don't think I'll be getting over that anything soon.

I remember hearing them discuss the patient. Taylor said something about killing him while Jacob was saying something about asking Jas? I have no idea who they are, but I guess they decide people's fate.

Taylor came to see me a while later. She wasn't mad or anything like that. Taylor sat beside me, and we stay there in silence for a bit. She then pulled me into a hug.

"H-Huh?"

"Don't think of this as anything. I still hate you."

"O-Oh..."

She let go of me.

"I have to say. I didn't think you'd do that."

"You mean...tase them, right?"

"That is correct. I never would've thought that you would tase him or anyone for that matter."

"I-I didn't want to but..."

"And that is why I am thanking you. If you hadn't done that, then I would have died for sure. So, thank you."

"No problem Taylor."

She smiled at me, then left.

Today sure was eventful. I hope something like that doesn't have to happen ever again, but we all know that isn't the case.
