//Say hello to the night,

Lost in the shadows,

Say hello to the night,

Lost in the loneliness//

Chris finished his lunch with the girl who had introduced herself as Victoria. She gave him someone to converse with. Someone to talk to, who didn't want to know how he had become crazy, or what all he did.

She just wanted to talk.

That was what Chris needed.

He was still not sleeping and he was coming up on the 12th day of just that. The doctor whom he had been talking to about what happened 6 Months prior to this, had his suspicions, and was planning on making him sleep, whether he liked it or not.

On the thirteenth day of not sleeping, things came to a head.

Chris sat in the corner of his room, right under the camera. He was waiting for the nurses to pass so that he could keep himself awake. The nurse stopped and peered in through the window. Chris couldn't help himself. He waved at her. A few seconds later, his door was opened. Chris saw his doctor and two other supervisors of this hellhole by him. The three of them walked in followed by four orderlies. Chris looked up at them. He knew what they were here for. He knew that they had finally figured him out. He slowly got to his feet and leaned against the wall.

"Chris, we know you're not sleeping-"

"Well, gee, what was the first indication of that one, doc?" Chris asked sarcastically. The doctor glared at him.

"You're going to sleep tonight, Chris, whether you like it or not."

"Oh really? How's that going to work?" The doctor held up a small pill.

"This pill can knock you out for eight hours, Chris. You either take it right now, and we watch you sleep, or, we drag you down to the silent room, force it down your throat and watch you sleep. It's your choice." The doctor told him. The orderlies crossed their arms over their chests to look buff. Chris looked more buff than they did, and he hadn't slept in almost two weeks.

"I'm not going to take that pill, doc. I can't go to sleep."

"Why not Chris?" The doctor asked in fake sympathy.

Chris shook his head. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you."

"Put this pill inside his mouth and make him swallow it. Then drag him down to the silent room. We'll watch over him from there." The doctor said. The four orderlies nodded and one took the pill. They all began to walk towards him. If Chris had been getting his rest, he probably would have been able to fight them off efficiently. Then again, if he had been sleeping, he wouldn't be in this predicament at all.

Chris struggled valiantly against the orderlies, but he simply was no match for them. His lack of sleep was hindering his defense abilities. The orderlies got him to swallow the pill. Forcefully, of course, they almost had to shove their arm down his throat to get him to swallow it. The orderlies dragged him down the hallway to the silent room. No one really understood the name until they had been in it.

Something inside the room, took away your ability to hear anything that was said, or anything that you were saying. People could scream as loud as they wanted to, it would echo all the way through the building, but the person screaming would not hear a thing.

It was almost like being deaf.

The orderlies tossed Chris into the padded room. He could feel his body slipping away from him. He was going to sleep.

"I hope you know what you've done to me!" Chris yelled with his last bit of energy, lying on the floor. He couldn't hear himself, but he knew that they would. "I hope you know that you've killed me!!!!" Chris screamed. The other occupants of the sanitarium could only imagine what he meant. Victoria sat down on her cot and prayed that she would see Chris once again.

"Don't kill me Molly," he whispered as unconsciousness seized his body.
