Introduction
Bones ducked quietly into the padded cell, dropping to her knees, knotting fingers in her hair and tugging on the pale strands. She could only hope that the pain would distract her from the sounds of shrieking in and darkness, the sounds of shuffling and shouting continuously echoing down the shadowy halls of Rose Gardens Sanitarium. Their calls rose up in the dark to loud gutteral screams, the already crazed madness in their voices made all the worse by the echoic walls.
Most believe that once you see something, you cannot help but believe it.
That is a lie though. One of word and mind, a lie that we cannot justify as being true, all because of one thing.
Our state of mentality.
There was once a sanitarium that stood atop a hill, full of madness and danger. Stepping inside meant you had a death wish, for the patients were beyond the point of insanity, trapped within memories of memories. Always searching for that one thing that helped to hold on to the last of their sanity.
They did not begin this way, oh no, but were made this way. Medication after medication, all to expel the evil within their minds. Diagnosed with things like Schizophrenia, severe depression, and many phobias. Made to believe they are crazy, made to see images that would haunt them for life.
But this was not how they began! They began as normal people, living lives that were meant for them, but then they showed signs of being mentally disturbed. Wether it be in way of saying they saw something that wasn't there, or that something happened and they caused it. Whatever the case, they took them away, locked them up, and fed them medication to make it worse.
When in truth, nothing is as it seems.
Out of the few staff members who were on shift when the storm struck were most likely dead by then, as the power had been out for hours. Now most of the patients were out in the halls, or pacing in the common room. When the power went out, the madhouse became nothing more then a pit o terror and aggresion; mental patients stand perpetually on the brink of collapse, when you turn the light out on them. They often turn from human to a animalistic state, acting on instinct, one unfathomable by many people.
You see now, what happens when your in Rose Gardens is something no one can really fathom. Each day they take a few of the children there and take them down to the basements, where the underground institute is. A place where they train, an train. Experimentation, training, and other things go on in the institute, things unmentionable.
Now though, there is a chance to escape. A chance to run away from the sickening expiraments. Only one problem, this chance not only comes when the power goes out, but when the truly mental patients are let loose.
Time to run.
She needed to see it again, to see the thick red blood, to hear the screams of agony. She needed to kill, just as much as she needed oxygen. What had started as a dull throbbing pain had become much more obvious, a sickening sense of darkness that swamped Bones with vicious fury like no other.
Expiraments:
Changes to eye color
Abnormality in skin pigmentation
Brain tests
Changes in eyesight, hearing, sense of smell, sense of touch, and taste.
Changes to hair color
Changes to bone density
Changes to growth rate
Changes to appendages
Abnormalities caused by the test:
Extra appendages
Manipulation over certain objects
Dangerous weapon-like growths
Odd unexplained powers
Ability to see things others cannot
Added brain power
Other.
Sirens wailed in the distance, distinct sounds belonging to that of the police. For Amber, and many other patients and orderlys it was too late. Bones lay in a pool of gathering blood, flickering in and out of consciousness as she attempted to bring her mind back to order. Not even noticing when she was once again placed on a gurney, being taken to god knows where while she grappled to take a hold of her mind.
Remember. This isn't a game.
===========================================================================
So now that you have my whole long freaking intro, I am here to explain what the heck is going on. There are chilren in the Rose Gardens mental hospital that have undergone a series of expiraments and tests that have changed them, some for the better, some for the worse.
They now have a chance to escape, but they first have to find their way out of the institute and then not be killed by the patients that have broken free from their cells.
Rules:
No godmodding
Be realistic
If you get hurt in a painful way you have to play it out realisticly.
Do not control each others characters.
Some of the powers can include telepathy, telekenesis, and the likes, but be realistic.
Sheets: Should include all the basics, name, age, gender, a picture or very detailed description of the character. Then bio explained in detail, as well as a short personality.
