Chapter 2: Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde
Fan Fiction
Mr. Hyde began pacing his room back and forth
thinking of ways to escape the asylum. If he spent another night in there he
would go crazy. There were guards on every floor making it very difficult to sneak
past any of them. Hyde knew he was innocent and he knew he didn’t belong in
there, but why would no one believe him? They all thought he was crazy and the
he killed that little girl, but it wasn’t him.
The nights in the institution were
long and cold. Metal surrounding you on all sides with only one blanket can get
pretty chilly. Hyde would hear strange noises at night. He would hear people
calling his name when no one was there and it began to scare him.
The next morning all the patients were let out
of their rooms to go to the gathering hall for breakfast. As Hyde was coming
down the stairs he saw something that caught his eye. There was a laundry truck
grabbing all the blankets, towels, and clothes to take them into town and to be
washed. The man was going back and forth between the gathering room and his
truck gathering clothes and such. Hyde developed an idea. He went over to the
pile of clothes and took one of the hangers. He folded it up into his hand
making his hand bleed from the sharp metal of the coat hanger. His plan was to
use the coat hanger to unlock the door of his room.
He ate his breakfast with one hand
and went to his room. The patients had a chance of either going to their room
until lunch, or stay in the gathering hall. As Hyde was in his room he began to
think of ways to escape. He knew he would be leaving the institution at night
and he also knew about the underground tunnel. The first day he was in the
asylum he heard some of the workers talk about the underground tunnel, but
before he could use that for escape, he had to find it.
