Psychosis
Chapter 3: Like clockwork
Previous ChapterNext ChapterWhen one has been in a place for an extended period of time, they get to know the routines of those around them.
As Luna stood by the door to room 503, she took in a few deep breaths to calm her nerves. She had already started to count tonight as a victory in the solving of just what had taken place a month ago and felt fairly confident in her work thus far. Of course just when one feels as though they have victory in their reach, fate comes along and throws it in to chaos.
As usual Luna entered the dark and quiet room and proceeded to the bed of the young filly. However, this time was different. The filly had been standing right by her, and in the dark had been concealed. Just as Luna entered the room she was shoved in to it with the door slamming in her face. Nurse Redheart watched as the crazed foal ran at her full tilt and then slam in to her. Knowing the nurse had tranquilizers on her she quickly found one and jammed it in to the mare's neck. Quickly grabbing the keys around the now un-conscious nurse's neck she made it to Scootaloo's room and opened it, next she did the same with Sweetie Belle.
"Damn Apple Bloom, took you long enough. Shit I was getting tired of having to preform the same act every night. When did you finally figure out their routine anyway?"
"Ah figured it out about two weeks after coming here ta be honest. I would listen to what was going on outside my room every night about this time, and... well ya'll know the rest. Now come on, Celestia Knows how many times we have been hit with those darts, you know they only last an hour."
Apple Bloom took a second to count how many of the tranquilizers the nurse had on her and whistled.
"Wow you two, she had ten of these on her. You don't suppose she saw me as a threat do you?"
"Enough joking around guys, here lets divvy them up so we all have at least a couple. We'll need them if we plan on getting out of here."
Apple Bloom turned around to look at the nurse laying in the hall, and walked up to her. Turning her around; Apple Bloom went through every pocket she had. In doing so she had found a key card, stun-gun, pens, papers, and a few bits. Taking another tranquilizer out, she jammed it in to the mare's neck for added security. She then turned to the hall and started walking; the other two right beside her.
As they went through the halls of the hospital they would hear other patients muttering and cursing in their cells. Suddenly Apple Bloom had a brilliant idea.
"Those cells are rather un-comfortable wouldn't you say girls? How about we allow them the same luxury we now have hmm."
"Uhhhmm, Apple Bloom; I don't think that'd be a good idea. Do you realize just how many sick in the head ponies there are in here? Also; we aren't all that well in the head either what with what happened a month ago. I mean sure it was a rush, but this; these ponies will more than likely do far worse things to us then we ever did; and we did some sick shit."
Apple Bloom snapped her neck towards Sweetie Belle and ran at her.
"WE DO NOT TALK... ABOUT THAT, DO... YOU.. UNDERSTAND. That shit we did had to be done, they... had.... to.. die. If they didn't it would have just kept on, and on. Yea; we're fucked in the head, so the hell what. THIS WHOLE WORLD IS FUCKED IN THE HEAD!. Do you really think Princess Luna would ever allow us to leave this place after what happened? Hell, Celestia knew what we did and she at least showed understanding. Did you not hear what she said to us in private? She told us that if we ever needed help, to just come and find her. Look; this... what we started a month ago... It's not fucking over you two! You know there were witnesses right? After you two started to chicken out and walk away, I had to do fucking damage control. So you two are in this with me weather you like it or not... GOT IT! Now, let's free them so that when the guards notice that the princess, and nurse haven't checked in... and they will find out. Why don't we allow our friends here some revenge."
Sweetie Belle looked at her crazed friend, and smiled. One month of being in this place had been enough to nearly drive them... well, more insane then they already were. Scootaloo also had the same feeling as they made it to their first door and knocked.
"Psssst, Pin Prick; you awake? It's me Apple Bloom, come to the door."
The teen aged filly lazily got off her bed and walked to the door and looked out the window. As she did she could see three young fillies standing there with keys.
"SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Awwwww, I knew I always liked you three, now where's that nurse so I can gouge her eyes out with this?"
There was a squelching sound followed by something clattering to the ground. The young mare had formed a makeshift knife out of one of the facility's spoons and was practically clawing at the door to be let out.
"Now Pin Prick, if you are a good girl we'll let you out OK. You have to tell the others not to hurt us, but to only go after the guards OK? Knock once so that we know you are coherent OK."
*KNOCK*
"Good girl, now... tell them all to behave and they will be rewarded"
"HEY ASSHOLES... LISTEN UP! MY FRIENDS HERE HAVE A PROPOSITION FOR YOU ALL. WHO HERE WANTS REVENGE ON THE STAFF HERE? BANG YOUR CELL DOORS."
Suddenly it seemed as though the whole hospital was one big bang.
"GOOD, NOW THERE ARE GOING TO BE FILLIES AT YOUR DOORS IN A FEW MINUETS. IF... A SINGLE ONE OF THEM IS TOUCHED... THERE WILL BE HELL TO PAY! GOT IT?"
Once again there was a loud bang heard throughout the halls.
"Obedient to a t, aren't you girl. Very well then; Pin Prick I'm opening the door now OK? The nurse is down the hall in front of room 503."
