BANG! BANG!
Rin opened her eyes lazily to glare at the asylum intern as he nervously pounded away at the nails holding up the wood that was blocking her window.
"What, exactly, are you doing in my room?"
She hissed the last few words in her sentence in an attempt to un-nerve the intern enough to either quit or answer her question. Unfortunately, he didn't stop or answer her question, because that nurse with the pink hair answered it for him.
"We're barricading the window so you can't pull off another little escapade like you did yesterday. From now on, your room will be under twenty-four-seven surveillance, and a guard will be stationed outside both your room and your window at all times."
Rin groaned in exasperation and rolled over. "So I can't even go outside during free time?"
"I'm afraid not."
"What about on those ever-so-rare days that we get to go out in town?"
"I doubt it."
"Not even next week, and let today count as a warning?"
As the nurse considered it, one of the doctors leaned over. "Be careful, Mrs. Kamui. She's one of the persuasive ones." The nurse nodded in agreement. "I know, I know. She persuaded one of the more unstable patients to try and commit suicide." As the nurse exited, the doctor walked closer to Rin's bed, clipboard in hand.
"Miss Kagamine, as of today, your chemical treatments are going to be stepped up in an attempt to cure you." He took Rin's arm and walked her docilely out of the room, all of the fight having flown out of her for the moment.
Half an hour later, the girl was back in her bed again, one arm connected to an IV drip and the other swollen and bandaged from the chemical-loaded shots. The nurse sat at her side, wiping the sweat off of Rin's forehead as the girl murmured feverishly.
"There, there. You're going to be fine, I think. Today's treatments were to help your mental and physical condition. And tomorrow, after your morning treatment, we have a therapist scheduled. Maybe that will help some, hm?"
The nurse sighed. "You seem like such a sweet girl, but then you go off and try to kill somebody. It's pitiable, really, how most everyone is like that. First, second impressions, usually they're both different for the same person." The nurse smiled and leaned over to brush a bit of hair off of Rin's forehead. "You'll be just fine, once you let us help you." She stood up and walked to the door. "See you in the morning."
After the nurse left, Rin opened her eyes and looked around her room hazily. White, white, white, white. That's all that she could see, so she guessed that no one was in her room at the moment. She struggled to sit up, but even that proved to be too hard for her at the moment, so she collapsed back onto her bed and thought.
What exactly had landed her in this situation again? Oh yes, her father. Her father had hammered the fact that everyone had problems that needed to be fixed into her head. And then when he and her mother died in a drunk driver accident...well, the incident hadn't exactly, well, re-enforced her faith in humanity. A couple of years later, she tried to help someone with themselves and ended up trying to eliminate their pain altogether. She had been let off with a warning, then another, and had finally ended up here, where everyone pretended to have no problems at all. And then adding both the "treatments" and the metal conditioning here...she was miserable.
Rin sighed and closed her eyes. There was almost nothing more for her to do here, except to wait. Wait for something to happen, for something to let up and allow her to get out of here.

Len trudged through the hallway at the end of school. His few weeks of probation were up, and he hadn't seen her since that time at the beginning. Frankly, he was a little worried because of her weird actions at the end of the day, but he shrugged the premonition off with the excuse that she hadn't been able to escape yet.
As he walked along, he glanced at the students swirling in masses around him. He liked a few of them, but most of the others had been classified as evil, even though he hadn't thought about why.
Maybe it was because he couldn't explain it?
Len laughed. While he was thinking about maybes, maybe he would see Rin tonight at their place!
He gave up thinking about it and continued on his way home.

Rin opened one eye, then the other. She lifted her head to look around, and then let it fall back onto the pillow with a sigh. She had just been so tired lately! Maybe it was just her, or maybe it was all of the chemicals that the doctors were pumping into her system. Either way, her head was almost always hurting and she hadn't felt the urge to help anyone for...a really long time.
Her eyes darted to the door as the pink-haired nurse opened the door slowly. The nurse kept her back towards Rin, as if...she was refusing to look at the girl in the bed. Rin kept an eye on the woman until she finally turned around and sat in the chair next to her bed. Rin was slightly taken aback at the sad expression on the nurse's face, and the nurse clutching the clipboard un-nerved her extremely.
"Wh-what is it?"
"Rin...you're going to die."
A/N: Yaay! Depressing! *sighs* that came way too easily. No worries, I have a story planned for my other account that won't be quite so sad. I think. I hope.

TsundereMe: Yes, I have an especially deep streak. And don't forget your gender, dear Tsun-tsun.
Campanella: I'm working on that. It went really fast and it might not have made much sense, but it's there. Tell me, who is your favorite? *eye gleams*
CluelessLeaf: Yaay! You like! (Oh, and macchi does that sometimes too!)
Elizabeth: Long review…(O_x) can't answer to it all…Kittie went bye-bye. Rin is a stalker. Your comment about the headache really helped! *gasp* that's a horrible cliché…one I'm still trying to avoid. OMJNN! YESH! I adore Ciel! And Doll is amazing, so is Joker and Snake is too, Lizzy is epic, and I'm still upset over the fact that Sebastian's personality is just a façade. I like his butlerish personality…OMG FINNY! I LOVE FINNY!
DyingRose: Ah, so that's what it is. Yes, it's a pretty creepy song. So is Kagome Kagome, but I can't bring myself to watch that video enough to write a story on it.
Hopeblossom: I'm certainly glad that you're enjoying it!
Hotaru-Naichingeru: You're going to make that dress? Ah, I'm so jealous! I love that dress, even more than the one from the Evil Saga!
VocaDancer: Heya! Glad to see you got an account! Yandere Rin is fun. ^.^
Ah, an important announcement. Since some of us xUNLIMITEDx authors take a lot of space doing author's notes, we got together and made Tumblr accounts. TsundereMe, KYUUxKYUU, and I all have one, and we have a group blog for xUNLIMITEDx. The links to both our individual pages and the group one are on our profile, and I hope that you take the time to look at my rambles.
I will be posting information such as story status and story ideas there, and you all are welcome to request songs for stories on my page. Anon requests should be accepted.
Thankies!
