Alice stands there, her face full of fear. Her eyes trail over our blood covered bodies. I hear Cassie start to cry, silently as she falls to her knees. Alice runs over to her, the only sounds in the hospital are Alice's running footsteps and Cassie's silent sobbing.

"Oh my god, Cass!" I hear Alice yell. I turn around to see Alice holding her sister's arms looking at the wounds that Kyle had made. Struggling, I get to my feet. I need to see where the boys are and quickly. Before I can go anywhere, Alice grabs my shoulder, "Dan, what happened here..." I turn to face her, tears in her eyes. My eyes trail to Cassie who is sitting against the wall, her head in her hands, crying. I look back at Alice, speechless.

"If I tell you, you would think I am insane..." There is a long pause before Alice breaks out in laughter.

"I already think you are!" She looks at her sister with sympathy in her eyes, "You guys were yelling and screaming over nothing! I don't know what you got into my sister's mind, but now she is insane because of you!" Alice lets go of my shoulder.

"B-But-" I struggle to speak, but nothing comes out.

"D-DEMONS!" Cass screams. Alice looks at her, furrowing her eyebrows. My mouth drops in shock.

"What?" Alice asks me. I stare at the ground, deciding not to say anything. Alice takes a step back, I can tell she is afraid of us.

"What have you turned my sister into...?"

Cassie's *POV*

I wake up strapped to a bed. Apparently, I am in a small room, with Dan, who is also strapped down in the bed next to me. My eyes wander the room, taking the scenery in. A single window has thick, metal bars in front of it. There is a small vase sitting on a small table next to Dan. The vase is filled with a single flower. A rose. Other than that, there is nothing else except for us and the two beds...that we are strapped into.

Dan is out cold, so I lay there alone. My brain can't piece together the puzzle. I have no clue where I am. Now the only thing my world revolves around are Dan and his demon band mates. The only sound I hear are muffled screams and dark chuckles.

"Fuck..." I whisper as I finally figure out where I am. Dan and I are in an insane asylum.

That explains a lot.

Heh. You are crazy after all since you have fallen for the freak next to you.

Too bad you two will never get a chance to be together.

You know, with all these demons in your heads.

"GET AWAY FROM ME!!!" I scream and kick as I hear the voices in my head. They start chuckling.

Ignorant little girl.

Don't try to boss us around.

The more you order, the stronger we get.

"Fuck you..." I say to them. They chuckle once more.

You're finished, foolish girl.

"I. said. FUCK. OFF."

SILENCE.

TIME FOR YOU TO LEARN YOUR FUCKING LESSON.

Dan starts to scream as he is woken up. Tears run down his cheeks as his blood curtailing screams fill the room along with the demons' hideous laughter.

"STOP! STOP IT!" I shout, but they won't stop. They take form next to him and I see what they are doing. They are creating deep gashes in his arms and stomach, "STOP, YOU FUCKING BASTARDS!" They finally stop, Dan not able to move because of the straps, pants in his bed, staring at me with terror in his eyes. The demons turn to me too and turn into black dust, filling the room. I start to feel the ground shake, and that is when my bed tips over.

I let out a scream as the bed flies towards the wall, "CASSIE!" I hear Dan scream. I feel my straps being cut off. Finally, I fall out of the bed and try to find my way through the room in the blackness.

"DAN? DAN?!" I scream panicked as I hear him start choking. There is a knock at the door and everything stops. The black musk clears the air, lighting up the room again. I see that in the corner, Dan is huddled in a ball, gripping his knees, nails digging in, and he is choking on his own blood. I feel my forehead bleeding but that is nothing compared to him.

The door opens and several nurses barge in with two doctors, "What happened in here?!" A nurse yells, disgusted. The two of us stare at all of the people dressed in white coats, our bodies caked in our own blood, and pupils dilated. I watch their eyes widen in terror. I then back into the corner with Dan, and grip his hand.

Dan closes his hand around mine. We continue to be hand in hand as the white coats close in around us.
