Chapter 6: Jeckyll and Hyde Fan Fiction

                Hyde made it out of the tunnel and kept running not stopping until he made it to the gates of the asylum.  He ran through the gates not bothering to close them on his way out. Hyde ran down the long winding road that leads to the asylum never looking back. As he was running over the hill he saw the lights of the town. Hyde paused for a moment to catch his breath and continued to run. Once he made it into the town everyone was looking at him like he was crazy, because he actually was. Hyde ran into a woman and looked at her with pleading eyes.

“I am so sorry ma’am, but do you have a place I could stay for the night?” Hyde asked worriedly

The young women didn’t ask any questions and just nodded her head quickly. The woman started running into the direction of her home with Hyde following closely behind her. She stopped in front of a wooden door and pushed it open forcefully. As Hyde came in behind her she shut the door and locked it.

“May I ask who you are or why you came running from the direction of the asylum?” She asked

“I’m sorry I didn’t properly introduce myself earlier, I am Mr. Hyde. I was admitted to Briarcliff because I was accused of killing that young girl. I know I didn’t do it because I would never do something like that, but of course once you are in an institution no one believes what you say.” Hyde replied with a sad tone

The women smiled showing she understood where Hyde was coming from. She walked into the kitchen and made Hyde a warm bowl of soup.

“I’m sorry, but I don’t understand why you are helping me? I’m not complaining, but after all I did tell you I escaped from a insane asylum.” Hyde said to the young mysterious woman

“My husband was admitted to Briarcliff 5 years ago for something he didn’t do, but they didn’t believe me or him. They only let me visit him once a year. The very last visit I ever made to him, he told me that he had found the tunnel that led underground through Briarcliff. He told me he was going to escape and come home, but that was over a year ago.” The women said with tears filling her eyes

“I am very sorry to hear that. No one deserves to be in that wretched place.” Hyde responded trying to have as much comfort in his voice as possible

She nodded and continued stirring the steaming soup. She looked over at Hyde and said something he would never forget.

“My name is Jane Jeckyll by the way.”
