EVEY ( A Split/Glass Spin Off Tale )

EVEY: Chapter 3

(In case you wondered why the chapters are so short, it's because I think they are cuter that way :D )

Dennis sat on the sofa thinking about what he had just witnessed, she was definitely a unique kid that was for sure but he wasn't going to abandon her because of it, he was curious as to how she could do what she did.

There's a knock at the front door. *knock knock*

Dennis answered the door and was faced with two suited gentlemen standing outside. "Can I help you gentlemen?" Dennis asked.

"Hello Sir, sorry to bother you but we are looking for an escaped mental patient. We have been combing the area and we we're wondering if you seen this child?" The suited man holds up a small photo of Evey.

Dennis looked at the picture and shook his head "No I haven't I'm afraid...I'm Sorry though but correct me if I'm wrong did you say mental patient?"

"Yes Sir, she's a patient from the metal hospital or looney bin if that's the term you go by" The man grins slightly.

"But she's just a little girl...how could she belong in a mental hospital?"

"Well her mother was a patient there and died during labor. The girl was kept for study. The child is considered dangerous and has an unknown mental diagnoses" The man explains.

"Well no wonder if all you do is keep her locked up in a loony bin" Dennis told them.

"Well she was kept for a study to see how often a patient's children have the same diagnoses and well as she grew, and this is just between you and me" The man leans in a bit closer. "She begun to show inhuman traits that no person should ever be able to do and she begun to attack certain staff members and doctors."

"Oh really...inhuman traits such as"

"Climbing on walls, increased speed and strength things of that nature" The man tells him.

Dennis chuckled "Well that sounds crazy" he says.

"Yes very much so.. well since you haven't seen her we'll bid you good day sir" The men leave in their car.

Dennis watched them leave and shut the door, sighing deeply.

The next day..

Evey was taking bath playing with Hedwig's rubber ducky's. "No don't go over dearr the shark will eat you!" she says while moving the ducks around in the water.

Dennis chuckled as he came in with a towel "Time to get out now Evey"

"Aw but look" she points at her little foot sticking out of the bath water. "That's da Shark.."

"Woah that's a scary shark" Dennis gasped.

"Yes it's pruney"

"Yeah it is that means you need to come out now" he told her.

"Okay" she lets him get her out and wrap her in a big towel. Dennis dried her off.

"I like the kit kitten shirt" She smiles as she gets the shirt on. "Ha Ha I thought you might" he laughed smiling back at her.

"Big laugh big laugh" she giggles.

"It means I'm happy little one, now let's get you dressed"

After getting her dressed and her hair dried, it was time for her meal.

Patricia comes into the light to make dinner.

Later on..

Patricia had just finished cooking Evey's dinner, she had roast beef with mashed potato's and peas. "Here you go little one" Patricia says.

"Are you a daddy to?"

"I prefer to be called Mommy darling" Patricia told her softly.

"Okay mommy"

"Thank you dear" Patricia tells her.

She eats her food and sits on the couch "Can I watch toons?"

"I suppose so but only for a little while"

Evey lays down on the couch and watches her cartoons cuddled up in her blanket.

Patricia watches the little girl looking all snug in her blanket, she felt her heart melt as she did. Evey was definitely a sweetie she could tell why Dennis had taken her under his wing.
