Athena made it to one of the bathrooms with only a few stops by nurses asking if she was okay. The bathroom was dim with a few flickering flourescent lights above. She removed a handful of paper towels and stood at the last sink wiping the paint off. Venus appeared on the sink beside Athena, swinging her legs like she was on a swing over the side of the sink. "When are we going to get out of here?" she asked. Athena glanced down at Venus then back at the mirror as she spoke,"Out of the bathroom or the mental institute?" "The mental institute.." Venus replied frustrated, knowing Athena would play dumb. "... Maybe a few weeks.. Hopefully." "Then will you talk to me more?" Athena stopped with the paper towel halfway down her face to look at Venus, surprised at her question. She opened her mouth to reply but the bathroom door swung open and she turned back to the mirror, continuing to wipe the paint off, splattering it into the sink. The nurse that walked in only took a glance at Athena before walking into one of the stalls. Venus clenched the rim of the sink impatiently, a glare beginning to form on her pale face the longer the lady was in the bathroom. When the nurse had finally exited Venus hopped off the sink and put her hands on her hips. "See? You never talk to me when other people are around." Athena turned to Venus as soon as the bathroom door closed all the way and glared back at Venus. "That's because I'm trying to prove I'm sane!" "You're embarrassed of me!" "I am not, Venus!" "Yes you are! You never hug me too! You hate me! I know it!" Venus yelled turning on her heel and beginning to stomp away. "Venus, you KNOW that's not true! Get back here now!" Athena ordered putting down her paper towel and pointing at the ground demandingly. Venus turned around and looked back at Athena with narrowed eyes, "NO." she answered poutily and ran away disappearing with a flicker of the lights as she reached the door. "Dammit.." Athena cursed herself. She washed the rest of paint off as fast as possible, leaving all her red paper towels behind for someone else to clean up and ran out of the bathroom to go find Venus.

"Alrighty..." Jack was speaking once more, his feet flat on the ground as he stood now. He tilted his head to both sides. He laughed.
"But what if I like being the way I am, hmm?" It was Marco speaking. Then he shook his head, Jack dominant again for a while.
"Well whatever floats... I have to go see if the final girl is going to join us or not..." He muttered, opening the door and peering out, "Of you ever need to speak to me, I'm always out in the north courtyard during recreation time... If I'm not out there, then look in the art and music room or my own room." He slipped out when he didn't see any doctors or nurses and went to look for Athena, Artemis's token smirk on his face.
"Oh little miss Athena.... Where are you..." He muttered, the sadistic tone rather low. His stride was rather long, letting long legs carry them as far as they would, his ears twitching a bit.
"Oh come on, girl... Show yourself..." His eyes scanned the area. Artemis's vision was different from every other personality. His was kind of like a snake's, except it was one solid color. Everyone had their own energy color, no ones was the same. Even the personalities in one person had separate colors, and he knew Athena's rather pale yellow color. He saw a small moving baby blue color.
"This must be the girl that only Athena could see..." He muttered. Unlike most, she looked like a blue blotch of ink. He reached fast and attempted to grasp the back of her neck, but couldn't tell if he was able to or not.

Athena walked into one of the lounge areas where several loonies acting like toddlers were sitting in front of the TV watching Winnie the Pooh. She got under the coffee table in front of them searching for Venus when out of the corner of her eye she got a glimpse of Venus's teeny black polished shoes running towards the hallway in the light of the TV. Athena tried pulling herself out from under the coffee table as fast as she could and knocked her head underneath it painfully. She held her head for a moment on the floor, as the toddler-like loonies laughed and clapped their hands amused by her pain, then she got up persistantly and ran after Venus. At the end of the hall she came into the room where Gaze was, just in the nick of time to see him grasp Venus by the back of her small neck. Venus was shocked and held still, never having experienced someone else other than Athena grab her before. Athena stopped as well, her light blue eyes widened trying to make sense of what she was seeing. She could not think of one explanation of how he could see her, let alone touch her. "Let go of her, Gaze.. "Athena finally spoke mustering up all the bravery she could.

"Gaze? Baby doll, I'm not him. I'm Artemis. There is more than one of me, but you should know that." He laughed, seeing the pale yellow color of the girls energy. "And if you're wondering how I can see her, its simple. I'm the psychic personality of the boy you know so much about. But I don't see with normal vision, I see with the color of a person or spirts evergy. You, compared to little one, show much clearly. Its different shades of pale yellow, for you're out line. This one is a bright baby blue color, but she looks like an ink blot." He looked at her, eyes showing a rather lazy feature, "But yes. I know you you want out. I know it and I want you to help."

Androcles came out of his room and wondered down the hallway. Androcles stride had changed from the last time anyone had seen him. Androcles was slipping into Aries a more evil side of his personality. Now Androcles was faking at all. Androcles personalities had been used in warfare. Aries walked to find Athena and Artemis talking together. Aries(Androcles) walked up and in dark voice he said, "Hello, young one. I am Aries." Aries extended his hand. Aries looked over to Artemis.

The sadistic voice of Artemis cackled low as he caught sight of the changed color, from dark maroon to a midnight blue. "You are funny. Just... Funny." He cocked a brow slightly, letting his had release from Venus' neck. He tilted his head to both sides and felt his neck pop. "Aries? Thats pretty cutesy for someone of your stature, dude." He pulled out a cigarette and lit it with the lighter Androcles had given him, stuffing both the case and the lighter back into his pocket. He cackled.

Aries smirked. "I am named after the God of War." Looks at Androcles lighter. "Nice gift from my weaker form."

As soon as Artemis's hand realease the back of Venus's neck Venus scampered over to Athena. Athena picked her up right away and held her closely then looked over at Artemis and Aries. She could not help but smirk at Artemis a bit and flipped her long honey colored hair back over her shoulder, pleased with her luck. She waved to him with her free hand then left heading back upstairs to the 2nd floor where her room was.

Aries winked his love for women making him lust over women. Aries was Androcles warror side who could be meaner than a snake when temped. "Well I have got work to do. Would you mind introducing me to everyone else when the time comes." Aries walked over to Athena and bowed the disappeared down the hallway, like a man on the hunt. Aries had winked at both women then nods at his true friend.

Artemis cackled, "She has yet to even specify that she is going to take part." He tilted his head and his body stiffened a bit, before his gaze set on Athena. Jack was back. He went after Athena, long legs carrying a simple stride to catch up to her before she went in her room. He pinned her to the wall and smirked.
"So what do you say, darling... Want to take part in the plan, or are you going to be a snitch and rat us out?" He had a brow cocked, stunning silver eyes finding ease in locking contact with her. Both of his skinny arms held her in spot, his face close, but not to close, to hers.

"Don't ever run off like that again.." Athena whispered squeezing Venus as they made it to the 2nd floor. "I won't.." "Promise?" "Yes.." "Good.. Because you know I'd go crazy without you.." Athena closed her eyes, snuggling into Venus's small warm neck, then opened her eyes upon hearing something ahead. She looked up and for a split second she saw a limping black dog, with its flesh rotting off, its left eye hanging out, and it's insides dragging on the floor. It brushed past her, touching her with its exposed ribcage without even noticing.. Athena knew it was a hallucination when it disappeared behind her, as she would expect it would. But she also had the eerie feeling the hallucination was warning her of something, like an omen almost. She'd never had a hallucination like that one before. "Guh.. Gross.." she shook noticing, the thick nasty blood the dog had left on her leg and brushed at it, "Did you see that Venus?.." "It's Jack." "What? Who? You mean the dog?" Athena asked puzzled. "No. The boy behind you." Venus answered vanishing instantly. Athena gasped as she was suddenly pushed against the wall and pinned by the shoulders with such a force it knocked the wind out of her. "So what do you say, darling... Want to take part in the plan, or are you going to be a snitch and rat us out?" Athena caught her breath and tried getting Jack to let go, but she could hardly budge. It seemed all her strength she'd gotten in gymnastics before coming into the institution had faded. "If you don't let go I'll scream my head off and get you in big trouble!" she glowered, her light blue eyes piercing back into his silver ones.

Jack smashed his left hand over her mouth, his elbow still pressing into the wall, "You scream and you loose the ability to see that little blot that Artemis told me about. I can easily have him take her away." His voice was hushed and lower than usual, a crooked smile painted on his face, the only kind you would imagine to see on someone killing another person. He and Gaze were both very used to this face, and at this point Gaze took over the body again and let his arms fall.
"Allow me to apologize for Jack's misbehavior, Artemis never really would do such a thing. He only takes orders from me," His voice was neutral again as he slightly bowed his head, and that was what gave him off on changing personalities, "But I have to agree with him, What do you say.. You seem to be intelligent, and with what Artemis told us that you have the kid, Venus was it? Since you have her, the two of you could be of great use to us... But not just us..." Gaze had a small smirk on his face.
"To the child... You'll be able to talk with her again without looking like a fool to the doctors... Show her that you... still care..."
He pressed his lips gently against her right ear and whispered low, "And I can help you with that freak of a doctor, Athena... If you want.." He pulled himself away and let his fingers run through his own electric blue hair. He looked at her with rather bored eyes, but this was normal for Gaze. While everyone had more power or humor in their words and eyes, he had a rather bored, neutral look that one could only really notice when they were actually up close and personal with him.

'Soon I'll be as free as you. Just you wait and see.' Gazing at the birdie outside the window, Bunny hadn't noticed when the nurse had come in. A male doctor was standing right behind her.
"Hello, bunny. The doctor is here to see you now." The nurse said. 'It's Jessica! You dimwit!' The doctor was a 6 foot tall man. With clean cut beard. His body looked like it belonged to a football player. 'Damn! And they thought I was a freak. This guy's more of a freak than I.' And his thick hands didn't seem to be able to hold his pen.
"Hello there bunny..." He started.
"Jessica." She scolded him. He smiled at her.
"As you wish." He said. "I've come to evaluate you." He said bluntly. 'I already knew that! I'm not dumb you big moron!'
"It says in your file that you stabbed a nurse in the arm with a paint brush." He told her tilting his head. 'I was aiming for her heart. The idiot put her arm in the way.' She shrugged her shoulders. "Why did you do it?" He asked her. 'She was talking about me.'
"She taught me." She answered.
"She taught you? Why would she teach you that?" He asked her curiously.
"She hit me." The doctor lifted his chin as if he were contemplating what she had just said.
"And so you stabbed her back?" She looked down at the floor. "I see." He scribbled something down on her file.
The doctor proceeded in asking her all kinds of questions that she deemed to be stupid about the night that her parents died. But she didn't answer because she knew exactly what happened to them. And she knew that she wasn't going to be able to answer who done it, because it was her. Finally the doctor gave up on asking her the questions.
"I've decided that it'll be okay for you to go back to the arts room, again. You need to interact your feelings in your drawings some more." He told her showing her a picture of her red line drawing. "I'd like to see more than just a line." He said. 'ugh I hate drawing.' He placed the picture back and left her room.
'Now to see if I can unlock that damn thing.'Alone once again. She pulled out the lock and paperclip and began doodling with it to see if she could unlock it.

Athena felt less frightened by Gaze and her tense shoulders that had risen almost all the way to her neck lowered slowly. She still fidgeted uncomfortably with the tips of her hair contemplating what he said. "I.. do care about Venus a lot of course. And I want to get out of here.." she mumbled, "But.." She paused, thinking deeper. She was going to say 'but what if my parents come for me?'... Then she questioned herself, 'what if they never came?'.. Her parents had not communicated with her since she got into the institution. Except her mom still sent her new clothes, expensive brands of course.. As if even in the mental institution it mattered what brands she wore. Image and success had been everything in her family. She looked up at Gaze deciding to change what she was going to say. "Nevermind... " she said quietly, "I'll help. For Venus's sake." "Yay!!" Venus squealed in delight, coming out from behind Gaze and suddenly hugging his leg. "Hee hee! I like you. You're nice!" Athena spoke for Venus looking back up at Gaze, "Venus likes you. She says you're nice." Venus got excited, never having the chance to say anything to anyone else before through Athena. "I think Mama should be with you! But not with Artemis or Jack.." Athena folded her arms raising her eyebrow at Venus, then grinned mischiveously, "But you're blue hair is funny." "I did not say that!" Venus argued letting go of Gaze and facing Athena. Athena grabbed ahold of her tiny arm and pulled her back over to her side. "Anyways.." Athena put her hand over her own mouth trying to wipe the smile off her face that she got from Venus pouting then continued, "The doctor... I don't know.. I guess, I'll have to think about it. I'm just not sure what can be done.. It's one thing to try to get back at another patient.. It's another to mess with a doctor. You wouldn't want to get in trouble, especially since you're trying to get out of here."

"Come on, Athena, I'm not as dumb as I look," He smirked. "Artemis can see spirits which normally cannot be seen, Jack sees things that are really not there and I can hear what normally cannot be heard. I am a schizophrenic like you, except I hear things. Since Artemis and Jack are the second and third most dominant personas in this body, Artemis sees with color and Jack sees the hallucinations.." He smirked and looked down the hall both ways, making sure that there was no doctor around and crouched to where he believed Venus was, "I should be with your mother?" He smirked and looked up at her, "I'm willing to be if she is." He closed his eyes and laughed before standing again and handing her the same note he had given Jessica and Tanli a few days before hand. He smirked at her comment on his hair, "And I'll make sure that Jack and Artemis don't fuck with anything."
"Last I checked, girls like things that are out of the ordinary," He laughed a bit, his brow raised a bit. But his look changed, "But do you seriously think you're parents will let you out of this place? I mean, come on hun. You may not think it, but I do know why you're here and I don't really think its right for you to be here." He brushed his lips against her ear again, "If I were you I wouldn't rely on my parents. Sure they send you nice clothes, but if the doctors ask them if you are ready to leave or not, they will keep you in here like a dog on a leash attached to a dog house." He let himself pull away from her.
"But I have connections in here. If you do want him dead, I can speak with some of the other patients, who know how to be stealthy with doctors." He shrugged slightly, "But whatever floats, hun." He looked at her, "Either later today or tomorrow, I am going to try to get the others to meet me in the arts and crafts room by the piano," He said softly before continuing, "Whichever works. You still have to really meet the others."
