Chapter 8 assembling the rescue crew

*there has been an OC added by a lovely reader that will be appart of this story for the remainder of the chapters*

Brick got the okay from Blossom to start the planning and told him what her and Buttercup heard from the doctor. He couldn't believe it, it was too horrible to think about. Drugging patients to remain insane to stay in business, that was a whole other level of evil. He knew someone who could help them Dexter recommend, but he really had to pull some strings to get her to listen.

He walked up to the peach haired teen and gave himself a mental push 'let's do this'. "Freya?" The girl looked up at him from her phone. "What do you want Brick?" She gave him a bored smile. "Dexter told you?" He felt his nerves tighten. "Yes... he did, do you have a price worthy of my help?" She gave a smirk now.

He pulled out a $100 bill and handed to her. She took it and held it up to the light to analyze it. "Hmmm... you have my services!" Freya stood up and calmy ushered Brick to walk with her. "So you think something is wrong with Townsville asylum?" She asked as they walked. "Yeah, apparently they are drugging the patients with hallucinogens to create symptoms of mental illnesses" Brick sounded heated.

"Woah cool it anger issues..." Freya smirked again "but that doesn't sound to far off from that place, my aunt used to work there... said it was like a cult building". "Wait so you know how to navigate the asylum!?" Brick hoped for the answer he was looking for. "Mostly... why are we doing this though?" Freya couldn't help but feel curious about the reason. "A friend of mine is there, she's a patient... I saw warning signs as soon as I entered the day I first met her" he gave the rest of the explanation during the walk.

"Sounds to me like you got a crush on her" Freya said as they made it to Brick's. "Why does everyone keep saying that?" Brick sighed as he unlocked the door. "Are we far off from the truth ginger boy?" She smirked again as his face flushed. "I... I don't know" he said as they walked inside.

"Hey hotness" Butch said with a smirk as Brick and Freya entered the living room. Freya calm as ever walked up to the green eyed boy and socked him in the arm. "Ow! Abuse!" Butch glared rubbing his arm. "I wouldn't if you weren't so stupid" Freya rolled her eyes. "When is that ever a chance with him" Brick said as he went to the kitchen to get drinks.

They spent the afternoon talking about the plan to save the girls, like Dexter said Freya was a great help in telling them about ways to get in and shortcuts around the place. "Well at least I know now that your help was worth the money" Brick smiled. "You doubted me!" Freya pretend to be offended and poked Brick's nose "shame on you" she playfully stuck her tongue out at him.

*at the asylum*

Buttercup and blossom had strategically found ways not to take the pills provided by the asylum but kept them for evidence. Blossom felt better than she ever had and was now flying through therapy sessions. They had told Bubbles to do the same as them, within a few days all three girls acted like they were never mentally ill, except the fact that Blossom's bipolar disorder made her a little bit moody. Buttercup still had a temper, but it was nothing like when she was on those pills.

During the night a couple days later Blossom heard Dr. Himillston say something that made her internally smirk. "Why have the Utoniums suddenly made that much of a turn, it's like the meds aren't working anymore!" He sounded angry. "Doctor maybe they've grown immune to them..." a nurse said. It sounded like they were walking towards the chained door.

"Well if they don't know about the meds we're home free, but it's become harder to hide the demon that those Satanists released..." Blossom put a hand over her mouth to prevent herself from gasping. "It's killed three people so far, but who cares about that... I'm just glad the asylum is still open" the doctor chuckled and Blossom's blood went cold.

That man had no regard for human life or rights and it was disgusting. Brick said that he and a few people were coming tomorrow to get the girls out of there, and Blossom asked him to bring a tape recorder so they could show the police everything hidden from the town that the asylum hid for so long.
