Chapter One.
July 10th
Outward Asylum. The outside looks like a gigantic concrete box but the inside is filled with white intricate hallways and rooms with a very intentional layout.
1 and 2 are standing around the corner of one of these hallways.
“Where are the guards taking Hiram this time?” 1.
“I’m not sure.” 2.
“Do you think they are going to hurt him?” 1.
“They always do.” 2.
“Did they really have to drug and strap him to a dolly?” 1.
“It makes sense, I mean you’ve heard the rumors about him.” 2.
“Shouldn’t we help him?” 1.
“Do you want to end up like him? There’s nothing we can do to help him this time.” 2.
Someone approaches from behind the two.

“What’re you guys doing?” 3.
“What does it look like we are doing?” 2.
“Got me there. 1 did you say something about helping Hiram? I might owe him a favor, is there anything I could do?” 3.
“2 says there's nothing we can do to help him.” 1.
“I doubt there isn’t something we can do.” 3.
“Yeah and what did you have in mind? 2.
The conversation ends as Hiram is carted into a room numbered 983.
July 17th
Unknown location.
Hiram throws a foldable metal chair across the room into a man.
“Let's just get this over with. Tell me where 3 is.”
The man with a manic laugh, coughed up blood and said,
“He’s gone.”
Hiram’s brows furrowed.
“What do you mean gone? Gone where.”
The man choking on his own blood managed to utter two words that shattered Hiram’s entire world.
“He’s dead.”
Hiram drew a short double barrel shotgun from his belt, and aimed it at the man’s head.
1 and 2 hearing a loud bang rushed back into the room where they left Hiram and the strange man. The room now filled with blood made both 1 and 2 sick to their stomach, but before even getting the chance to throw up, something happened. All of the blood was gone, and the man's head was back intact.
“Holy shit he's one of them isn’t he” 2.
“I don’t understand, he’s one of them?” 1.
Hiram unsatisfied, muttered,
“Fucking seems like he is.”
The man starts laughing even harder than before.
