TW:Blood, violence, death, graphic description

Ryan held Brendon close as the two of them walked together. Of course this was Ryan S. and he was holding Brendon to keep him from attempting escape. The Doctor Man felt it necessary for Ryan to practically cut off the circulation to Brendon's arms whereas the guard from earlier just put one hand on Lindsey's shoulder and one clutching her arm as them, Brendon, Ryan, and Dallon walked down the hall into the room next to the chapel.

Brendon looked at the monitor and tried to figure out where in the chapel was the camera he never noticed. It was pointed to look at Patrick, sitting back in the chair, unrestrained and crying. They had moved Remington's body but his blood still covered the ground and Patrick.

The Doctor Man must have noticed how Brendon stared in horror.

"Oh, would you like Dallon to play back what he saw, just so we can be sure we all know what happened?" He said emotionlessly.

Brendon gulped "I-I'm sorry, sir."

"Tell me: would you like to see it, or not?"

"N-no, sir," Brendon said, praying to the gods Viola believed in that that was the right response.

"Okay, we won't do that," The Doctor Man said.

"R-really?"

"But of course!" The Doctor Man said with a smile "We wouldn't want you to be uncomfortable,"

"Thank you, sir," Brendon breathed.

"Yes, so instead we'll show, how do you say? Ah, a demonstration of what Dallon saw," He said before speaking into his walkie talkie: "Be a doll and bring him in."

On that command Dallon opened the doors for a man in a straitjacket who was roughly shoved in by a different guard.

Dallon closed the doors before the man could pick himself up.

"Brendon," The Doctor Man said "Meet Mr. Joseph Toro,"

Patrick ran over to Jason's other dad. Joe looked up at Patrick and his anger and fear melted away into a mix of concern and relief. Patrick collapsed next to Joe and attempted to embrace the restrained man. Joe immediately buried his face in Patrick's neck. Brendon could see the tears that fell from Patrick's blood-caked face unto Joe's messy, dirty, curly hair. Brendon would never hear the lisp in Joe's voice that Patrick loved as he whispered in Patrick's ear that it he was okay and that Patrick was okay and Jason was okay and everything would be okay. He hushed Patrick's broken sobs as the hook-handed man tried to tell Joe how much he loved him.

Patrick was still crying and Joe was still whispering when Patrick's eyes glossed over at the push of a button. The Doctor Man actually decided to do his own medial task for once. Or maybe he just want to be the one to make the flip in Patient X's killer's mind to see not the man he loved, but an enemy he hated with all his heart.

Joe whispered "It will be okay," right until the end of his life, blood gushing from the vocal cords that were sliced while still moving. The tears fell off of Patrick's face harder then before when The Doctor Man lifted the spell. Patrick's tears mixed with Joe's blood but it didn't make it any less red or Joe any less dead.

Brendon tried to choke back a sob himself but a strangled noise still came out in response to the horror he just witnessed. The Doctor Man had put his hands on Brendon's shoulders sometime during the murder when Brendon had tried to look away and upon hearing the noise he turned Brendon to look him in his eyes and smiled, quietly asking "Would you like another demonstration or have you learned your lesson?"

It took Brendon awhile before he managed out a rough "N-No, s-sir, it won't happen again, sir."

"You're right," The Doctor Man said gently before turning to Dallon and Ryan and saying "Please escort Mr. Brendon into a re-education room and don't take any precautions towards his safety or health," He turned back to Brendon, still smiling "For there is absolutely no room for weakness in Liseil."
