Skye Azriel's Story

Aily stepped out of her mothers car, glaring at the large iron gate and fence in front of her. Behind the gate was the place crazy kids were sent. So why? Why did Aily's mother bring her here? Her mom must think she is crazy and needed help...which wasn't all wrong. She did need help, but sending her to a crazy house. Aily thought that was a bit absurd. " Bye baby, I love you!" Her mother said to her frowning a bit. " If you loved me, you wouldn't send me to a place from insane people. whatever, pop the trunk so I can get my shit." She said in a monotone that had become her normal tone long ago.

Her mom did as told and Aily grabbed her stuff and then moved to go through the gate and into the building. " Tell us your name, dear~" said one of the white clad nurses behind a desk. Aily did tell her her name and she was handed a name tag and a card with a number on it." This is your room number dear. Go unpack and come back down her after you are done so you can greet the other new arrivals." She nodded and headed to her room. Once inside she sat on the bed beside the window and gently tugged at her sleeve to show her wrist which had fresh cuts that were just now beginning to scab up.



Skye stared at his mother as she pulled into the drive of the hospital. " Dad I thought you said we were going to Disney land! Why are we here?" he asked his gray eyes going wide. He looked between his parents as he dad dropped his head and his mother looked behind at her son. " Listen Skye, no son of mine will dress as a female. Also, your hallucinations and hearing things has gotten worse. The people here will help you, that's what you need is help." she said in a firm voice. Skye drops his head before raising it and giving a pained smile." Yeah...you're right mom...I need help. Well bye bye..." he said softly as his dad got out." I'll help you sign in and carry your things." he shook his head and grabbed his bags." No dad, you and mom go... I love you." he smiled softly and his dad hesitated before getting back in the car.

He walked into the building and signed in getting his things and going to his room. He instantly begins to unpack all his things singing softly to himself.

Skye had been sliding his suitcase under the bed and picking up the last few stuffed animals from the floor as someone entered the room. He sat on the bed from a moment and just as Skye peeked over the edge of his bed to see what the person looked liked, he began to kick and punch things before suddenly falling to the ground all curled up. Skye held in a small squeak of fear as he watches the male to see if he'll start hitting things again. When he sees that he wont, he slowly stands from where he was crouching and approaches the male. He kneels beside him and fixes his skirt before looking down at him. " A-Are you okay...?" he asks softly holding a hand out, not sure if he should touch him or not. He bit his lip and looked over the boy, seeing if was hurt from his out burst.

Ivan
Ivan didn't plan on moving, he planned on staying curled up till they had to drag him out of the room. At least, till he heard someone speak and almost jumped out of his skin. Looking up he saw a girl, no, boy? He was dressed like a girl though, and had purple hair. Was this someone else in the asylum? Were they crazy? Ivan resisted the urge to curl back up into a ball or run away as he was asked if he was okay. Seeing the other boy reach out, Ivan involuntarily leaned closer curiously before moving back several feet. Looking down at himself, he saw his knuckles were bleeding, and his foot kind of hurt, but he'd been through worse so he just shrugged. "I'm fine," he mumbled, rubbing the blood off on his pants.

Sarah
Sarah walked into another room after getting signed in. Her mom had left without another word, but Sarah refused to show it affected her. That's why she was here, right? Being too sad. So she had to show them she was anything but.
The nurse pointed her to a place to sit, and then where her room was if she wanted to unpack. Sarah didn't. Unpacking made it seem like she was truly stuck here. She was, but she rather not have to deal with it till later. Walking to where she supposedly was supposed to wait, she stopped hearing a voice. Something about Nikky and clothes. Frowning, Sarah crept forward till she could see the girl. She was staring down at her clothes distastefully, but suddenly that changed to a more, absent expression. Like she was falling asleep. Deciding to get closer, Sarah waved a bit. "Hi," she said quietly, fully aware that this person was probably insane. Sarah clenched her teeth at the thought. She didn't belong there.

Skye frowned and watched as the male moved away, then turned to look over his shoulder whispering harshly. He turned back toward the male and smiled." Im Skye...may I bandage your wounds?" he asks moving a bit closer. " I have some band-aids in my bag..." he says jabbing a finger behind him. He then sighs and looks at his shoulder. " Shush Ellam! You'll scare him!" he said as if there was someone there, which to him there was, but to others he was speaking to thin air. He looks back to Ivan and smiles sheepishly." Sorry...Ellam is a little rude to people he is just meeting..." he bites his lip and looks down.



Aily kicked her bag into the corner and tugged her sleeve down. She moved down to the lobby and sat away from the other two girls who had gathered there. They were probably crazy as hell and she wanted no part of that. She crossed her arms and looked around the room her mind suddenly drifting to thoughts of possible ways to escaping the hellish place.

Ivan
Ivan fidgeted as Skye talked to someone else. Ellam. Ivan didn't see anyone else, and the other boy was making him feel nervous. Not to mention he was scared to have the other boy touch him. Insane people came here, right? Would Skye hurt him? Ivan sighed and decided to just stop thinking about it, before he got too sad. Skye was now apologizing for the invisible persons actions, that Ivan completely missed. He figured the other person wasn't real, but didn't want to get killed by saying so. Awkwardly, Ivan held out his hand that was bleeding, expecting the other person to give him a band aid or something. "I'm Ivan," he mumbled, offering a weak smile. Even if this person was crazy, he should be nice. The smile faded quickly though, as he was hit with another realization. He was stuck here. In an asylum. He shouldn't be here. Ivan left his hand outstretched, but the rest of him curled up into a tight ball.

Skye nodded and moved back to his bag pulling out a box of brightly colored band-aids and some antiseptic spray. He moves back to Ivan and takes his hand in his own gently spraying the wounds with the spray then sticking different colored band-aids on the wounds. He smiles as he finishes and then drops the smile a little. " Im sorry your here too...Im sure you're not as crazy as me.." he says softly absently playing with his dress. He sighs and then stands moving to sit on his bed and stick the name tag over his breast and then stands again. " Well Im done unpacking I guess I'll see you down stairs?" he asks looking to the door.

Ivan
Ivan stayed still as Skye fixed up his hand, only looking up when he felt Skye's hands go away. The other boy was smiling, but he didn't look happy. "Im sorry your here too...Im sure you're not as crazy as me.."
Ivan frowned at this, looking at Skye confused. How would he know he's crazy? Well, sure, he's here, but...
"It's okay... Yeah, I'll see you downstairs," Ivan mumbled, rising to his feet, only wincing a bit as he put pressure on his foot. Ignoring it, he began to unpack his things, which really wasn't much. His dad really only packed him the essentials. Ivan's fingers twitch, suddenly feeling the urge to punch something again. When he saw the band aids though he stopped, calming down a bit.

Skye nods as he grips at his dress and then slips out the door talking softly to Ellam as he walks over, the light-hearted conversation continuing until he gets down stairs and sees the others. He bites his lip and shoos his 'imaginary friend' away telling him they'll talk more later, then goes to sit on one of the chairs. " hello everyone, Im Skye!" He says smiling and waving at them all.

Skye realized that everyone either already had someone to talk to or wanted to be alone and sighed to himself and decided to look around. The place was bleak and to Skye it needed more colors, like all thee colors in the pack of band-aids he had. He bit his lip and in his head was contemplating the colors that should be on the walls in this room. " Pink..? Nah too girly.. Oh a orangey color would be very welcoming!" he said to himself with a smile as the little voice of his fairy friend popped into his head, " Maybe red?" he only shook his head and looks at Ellam, who had taken a seat back on Skye's shoulder." No red is a good color for cafeteria places, cause red makes you hungry." he says then crosses his arms." I thought I told you to go away for awhile?" he said unaware that all the others around him could not see nor hear his fairy friend and that this made him look highly crazy.

I processed this information; I was starting to calm down. “I bet Layla is exited to meet new people...” I said to myself, I gazed around the room and saw some others sitting around.

There was a girl sitting alone talking to herself...and there was a boy just kind of standing there... I should try to meet as many people as I can right now...when I’m Nikky and not someone else.

“Excuse me...” I said to Sarah and stood still shaking, I made my way over to the boy first, seeing as the girl was already talking to someone weather they where real or not.

“Hi, I-I’m Nikky...” I said holding my hand out more confidently; he was looking kind of shaken...I saw that one of his hands where bandaged and wondered about how that happened...I was slightly worried, and pulled my hand back.

Would he be the one to bring Zeak out? W-would he be the first one I hurt? I was shaking again and looked away from him pulling my hands to my chest waiting for him to answer or say anything.

Skye had been in a pleasant conversation with Ellam as a girl yelling made him look up and survey the area. He smiles as he notices Ivan had come down but frowns as he sees the crying girl in front of him. He bit his lip and wondered if Ivan had done something to hurt her. He waved a hand and shooed Ellam off for the second time as he watched the two wondering if Ivan needed help consoling the girl.

Ivan
Ivan noticed something was changing in the girls eyes, and she seemed to just be more scared. Ivan had no idea what to do. Was she having a melt down? "Nikky?" he asked before looking around for someone else. He spotted Skye, and looked at him helplessly. He didn't know how to the calm the girl down, and he could tell something was wrong with her.

Skye jumped to his feet as Ivan look at him. He walked over and stood beside Ivan smiling kindly at the girl. " Hello Im Skye, what's wrong?" He asked softly, placing a gentle hand on the girls shoulder. He gazed up at Ivan for a moment his gray hues holding curiosity about the what had happened between them.

I just gazed up at the two of you... “Who are you?” I asked pulling away, I gazed around the room, “and where the hell am I?” I saw that they where looking at me kindly, worried even. “Which one of you scared Nikky? I’m only ever let out when she scared or angry! Who the hell scared her!?”

“I may hate this body I’m stuck in and hate Nikky, but I’m here to protect her! I’m the only one allowed to hurt her!?” I advanced on them anger flaring up as I felt tears on my cheeks, “and who made her cry?!” I yelled at the two people.

“I’m the only one allowed to hurt her! She made me go through suffering! It’s my turn to make her suffer, but if you make her suffer I have to get you back to!”

Skye squeaks and steps back his eyes widening at the sudden personality change. " Pl-...Please calm down...um..." He bites his lip not sure what to say as he hears who ever the person talking was, say how he was only allowed to hurt her and make her suffer. " Why would you wanna hurt Nikky...but also protect her..?" He asks his voice just above a squeak as he looks at her confused.

I took hold of the front of this boy’s shirt... “What the hell did you do to scare her? Did you touch her!” I yelled shaking the boy. “if I make her suffer...then we don’t have to remember the abuse...but if someone else does it...we remember it...its us who had to go through it! she made us rmember being beaten every night!"

"I dont need her getting raped again, but I still need to make her suffer”
I shook the boy again, “did you hurt her! I’m the only one allowed to hurt her...”

Skye watched his mouth gaped open and eyes widening as he listens to everything that the girl, which Ivan called Nikky, had gone through. He looked between Ivan and Nikky having absolutely no idea what to do except for just stand there and help Ivan try to calm and urge her back out...If he even needed help doing so.

“pfft! Why the hell would I let her back out?” I ripped my arm form this boys grip. “She never lets me out...I’m always stuck inside....” I looked the boy over again, he looks kind of angry...

“Whatever...” I finally noticed what this place looked like and let out a burst of laughter.... “Nikky got us stuck in the nut house?” I rummage in my pocket feeling my lighter I pull it out then pulling out a cigarette. I put it in my mouth and light it.

“Might as well enjoy myself well I’m out...” I say turning to walk away from these people I have no interest of socializing with.

Skye coughs slightly and bites his lip sharing a look with Ivan. "Would we get in trouble for going back?" he asked tugging at a bit of long purple hair. He had thought the girl had looked nice but now that she was someone else...or whoever she was acting as...she scared Skye. He noticed how Ivan's face had gone blank and placed a soothing hand on his arm. He didn't really know what to do, but it seemed that Nikky was done talking to them.

Skye smiled and nodded skipping after Ivan. He hummed softly and looked over at him. " So.." he thinks of something to say, coming up short on conversation. " How are you...?" He asked tilting his head a bit. His dress swished a bit as he skipped and he realizes he must look very weird to Ivan and looks down a bit sheepishly, knowing most people don't take a guy in girl clothing isn't something you see everyday, and it most definitely isn't normal.
