chapter 21: the last in counter

Hi... I'm Cassie and this is my story not Callies not Coreys mine.

So we're do i start I'm 17 years old and I'm currently in watch and so you understand what that mean, it means that I have guards watching me 24/7 kind of sucks but it's my life.

Now the reason why I have guards well... So back when I was a baby so as long as I can remember I've been in and out of orphanages because I kill them!.

There not my parents so why should I leave with a random family I want mine I want my family back... I can't my Mothers dead... I don't want to see my Father but I know I can't have them back, so I chose to be on my own.

Family's use to come before I was on watch because they thought I was 'adorable' in there words I was only six years old when I started to kill and look were that's ended me on watch and in a asylum in the doctors words 'mentally disturbed' which they mean fucked up because of my parents.

I wish I had a them together again but I can't and I'm pissed about it.

It hurts like there's a fire in my heart but once I remember what what Father did its like someone pourd water on it, I want revenge.

Once a day I get to go out with one guard so today I built up the courage to go see my Father I bet your wondering who he is and why I want to see him, the reason why I'm going to see him is because I want his side of the story I mean I'm a killer but I'm not a bitch I will at least listen to him.

So as I arrive the police show me to his jail cell once I stand outside his cell the first words he said to me is "oh my god... Callie!" while frantically bolting to the bars I cocked my head to the side "no... Cassie... Hello.... Father"!.

I mean he was right I looked exactly like my Mother I had long blond hair and bright piercing green eyes and yes my Father is Callie and Corey.

"omg!... Cassie... You look just like your mom" after he spoke I gave him a huge smirk "okay cut the shit... You fucking left me!" I cried at him while banging on the bars making him jump "what are you talking about sweetie?" he quizzed me.

My anger got the better of me well that's a big struggle to me "don't you dare call me sweetie!... You know what you did you left me I need you!...I've been through so much shit because you left me!" I screamed at him, I screamed that loud my guard had to grab me, "I didn't leave you I didn't have no choice... It was your mom" he said gently, before speaking I looked at my guard and mouthed 'I'm okay' "you could have fought for me but you... Didn't!" I cried at him facing my back towards him I couldn't even look at him.

"like I said I had no choice... You definitely have my personality though" while he said that I couldn't help but smile a little "you do know your mom is the reason why I'm in here" I gave him a shocked look "I knew she called the police on you but I think I missed something out... I have her diary" I spoke to him with a confused tone "she called the police she didn't think it was right to be around you... Have you spoken to her?" he questioned me "no I didn't know that I'm sorry" I looked at him with sympathy "wiat what did you just say?" I quizzed him he looked at me with confusion "mhh...that she called the police?" he asked me "no the other bit" I spoke while raising my eyebrow at him "oh... Have you spoken to her?" he questioned once again repeating his previous question "Dad...shes dead" I looked at him once again giving him a sympathetic look.

"no...she's alive...the last time I heard about her... That she's in a coma" once I heard that my heart dropped I was in shock "but the police told me she's dead she died while giving birth" I frantically spoke "I'm not sure then... Check out the hospital then if you don't believe me" I got myself into a deep thought until I jumped to the sound of the police man "I'm sorry but your time is up" he spoke with no emotion what so ever.

"you know you can't go" my guard spoke with sympathy so I thought he felt bad "why can't I... I cab leave the asylum once a day I haven't gone back yet so technically I can do what ever I want until I go back" I spoke with a cocky tone with my hand on my hips slightly mocking him, "I know you mean well Cassie..." before he could finish I cut him off I'm messed up because of my parents aren't I?" I quizzed him "you can turn it around... Like I was saying you can turn it around once your 18 you won have me anymore" he spoke while Standing in front of me blocking my path.

"please I want to know if its true... Because if it is I will apologise to my Father" while said that I gave him a pleading guesure kind of like I was begging him like a little puppy wanting a treat, "fine... We're heading straight back after... Promise Cassie" he gave me a sturn look "I pinky promise... Steve".

Oh yeah that's my gurds name Steve I guess he's been the best Father figure I've had he keeps me in control and he's not as strict as the other guards.

As we show up in front of the hospital I had a nervous feeling Bush over me my heart was pounding in three continuous beats, I've visited the hospital all my life for check ups but also some testing on my Brain so I use to see it but this time it's different there was definitely a different tension in the air once I paused to stare at the big automatic doors.

I knew for a fact I would be heart broken either way at the end of the visit A) if she's not here my Father would have lied to me once again and B) if she's here this is all her fault and that everyone lied it me I felt sick in my stomach.

"you can turn around and try again another day" he put his hand on my shoulder for comfort, I couldn't help but let out a small smile at the corner of my mouth "no if I don't do it today I won't ever I would just freak myself out thinking too much about it" as I spoke I took a deep breath in and out of my nose so that Steve couldn't here.

I don't want him thinking I'm nervous... I should say I'm nervous of I might do if I know the truth.

I walked up to the reseption and in my nicest voice I could possibly use "hello... Do you know the room we're Callie Evens is?" I quizzed the man at the reseption "sorry who are you?" he asked me "oh sorry... I'm Cassie Black-Evens... I'm here daughter" I smiled with hesitation as I've hardly never smiled at a stranger before.

Before the man at the reseption spoke he took a quick glace at Steve, which I thought was weird it wasn't a look to stranger to stranger like that smile you do when you walk past someone to be polite, it was a smile exchanged like they've met before which like I said before I've come here to the hospital alot when I was younger so they probably won't remember me but when I came here Steve never dropped me off, maybe they use to be old friends.

"oh sorry... Don't you know she's dead?" he said with a sympathetic look "mhhh" that's all I could say i mean I would definitely sound crazy if I came out with 'yeah but my Father who's in jail told me she's still alive' now I would be one hundred percent positive I would be looked up, suddenly Steve grabbed my shoulder pulling me towards the exit "come on lets go" I was paralysed I don't know what to think or feel I was numb but deep down I felt like she was still alive.

"wait can I at least use the toilet before we leave?" I asked the man at the reception while pushing Steve away a little "sure... Down there to your left" the man spoke while gesturing with his fingers were to go, I smiled and nodded to show him i understand.

As I set off down the hall I smirked a little to myself because I wasn't going to the toilet I wanted an excuse to snoop a little until I get caught.

I think at this point I have searched at least about 5 different rooms but still nothing I was on the verge of giving up, maybe just one more door because I can't scan around all day Steve will know I'm up to something until.

I felt a cold, icy feeling on my hand when I saw Steve smirking widely at me, I gave him a little cheesy grin "I lost my way" I told him trying to sound confident, "oh really... You can fool anyone but not me" Steve said while crossing his arms not in frustration but kind of like he knew I was going to do something.

He gestured his head to the side to signal its time to go I dropped my head down in sadness feeling defeated while we walked out we decided to talk to long way round I don't know why but I think Steve did it on purpose so that I could double check.

I know it was pointless but I still had a quick glance in different rooms just to be one hundred percent positive, so far no luck as I was about to droop my head once again there was one more room 106 I don't think I've checked this one worth a shot right?.

My heart dropped as it reacted to the sight, one single tear rolled down my cheek, my anger fought through the sadness, the lies, the hopes.

"what!... The!... Fuck!..." is my eyes deceive me I rubbed my eyes just to double check but there she laid fucking Callie Evens, my fucking Mother.

I turned my whole body to Steve "did you know?" I questioned him I could tell he was terrified of what I might do and then I asked once again "did!...you!...know!?..." this time my voice got higher and more angry.

All he did was nodded his head in sadness, all I could feel in my stomach was fire no not fire lava all the anger was burning up all at once I don't know if I could control myself this time.

" come on let's go home" Steve slightly risen his voise "do you really think I want to go home... After I found out the truth... After I found out my Mother isn't dead!" I cried back at him "I promise you I will explain everything Cassie... But here... Now... It won't work" Steve said while giving me his hand.

I part of me wanted to grab it and listen to him but what came out my mouth was anger built up buried deep down for a long time.

"you don't understand!...you don't get it!... All your life being a lie!" I screamed at him "Cassie you can't stand here and scream at me all day...you can back home but they'll not let you leave is that what you want?".

This is why I love Steve he brings me back to reality he keeps me in check, I didn't say anything I just nodded in disappointment.

Back in the car ride home Steve was ready to tell me... Or should I say show me.

Steve hands me a note and says "your mom gave it to me and the doctors and the police" while grabbing it I gave him a nervous smile the note read: 'please understand any circumstances do not tell my daughter I'm alive. It would be better for her and me too.' signed Callie.

After reading I gave Steve the note back hesitating on my words to say "what does she mean?" I quizzed while a small tear fell onto my shirt "she said it would be better if you were away from her" Steve said while wiping my tears away.

"Steve!... Don't lie I need the truth now... She said for her too... I can handle the truth trust me" Steve gave me a big sigh before opening his mouth "she was scared... Of you and what your capable of doing your her and Corey".

"I understand that but... I can control myself I'm not like her or what she use to be" I leaned my head on the window of the car.

As I was looking outside I saw all different happy families, playing, hugging all the love and affection... That's all I want... I did ever thing so I can just be happy but... I guess it was just a waste of time.

I looked at Steve he was giving me 'the I feel sorry for you smile' "you know you don't have to feel sorry for me... How long has she been in the coma for?" I quizzed him "Cassie... I don't feel sorry for you... I can't help it I've known you for so long and all I want is for you to be happy... I know this is difficult but you just need to be strong... Also she's been in the coma for 17 years".

"wow... So since I was born did giving birth to me do this to her?" I looked at him in disappointment I didn't need a awnser from him I could tell by the look on his face.

"Do you know when she will be out of the coma?" I quizzed him "I'm not sure... But Cassie I promised to tell you the truth and the truth only... Please don't do anything stupid!".

Before looking back at him I took a couple of breaths to calm and prepare myself to what he might say while closing my eyes.

I slowly opened my eyes I cautiously looked at him and before I nodded my head I hesitated a little but I was ready to hear it.

"because she's been in a coma for so long... They've tried everything sweetie...there going to turn life support off" he couldn't even bare to look at me at my reaction but to be honest I was numb I wanted to at least see her hear her talk her say my name or even hug me... I can't experience that now from a Mother my Mother.

The rest of the day all I could think about was my Mother I'm upset about the lies but most importantly I won't even get to speak to her life support is getting turned off soon the sadness of not even being able to speak to her is beating the sadness of the lies.

The next couple of days I wasn't myself I just kept to myself I didn't feel like doing anything I was numb once again, Steve started to notice "hey... Come on tell me what's up?" he said while placing a hand on my shoulder to comfort me.

Maybe it's for the best to tell him everything... Maybe it will make me feel better "I'm upset because my Mothers life support is getting turned off and..." before I can say anything Steve cut me off "I understand Cassie... But that doesn't mean she's going to die... She can fight to live" "I know but what if she doesn't want to fight... Can I be selfish for once... I just want to hear her voice... To be alive... To be my Mother".

"Cassie... You thought she was dead all your life" "I know!... But this is different when I first saw her... Its difficult to explain but... I was pissed but happy at the same time" I said while slamming my hand on my desk, "you were happy that she was alive... But pissed because you've been lied to all your life?" he spoke exactly right.

"yeah... But it's like I'm losing her all over again...my heart is in agony" I said while trying to fight back the tears "Cassie I understand but..." before he could say anything I cut him off "wait... When did she give you that note?" I quizzed him "oh... God... A couple of years ago... She was still pregnant with you" he replied back to me.

"that's funny she never wrote that in her diary... She didn't write all her killings either but she had a mental illness that caused her to black out" I spoke while cocking my head to the side in confusion.

"I know Cassie I've known her for a long time too but this doesn't make sense... You said your Father wroke in the diary didn't he?" Steve questioned me "yeah... But only his point of view... Literally just once".

"again really funny" Steve said in a confused tone "why is that weird?" I questioned him "because how did he even get the chance to write in it he got arrested the minute you were born" I thought a little... That's a lie a lot but... nothing.

"o-m-g... She would have known what was going to to happen to her and my Father" I said while gasping "I don't know Cassie... That's a huge accusation... If she would have known what was going to happen.. Don't you think she would have tried to stop it".

"your right... But if she did go to the hospital my Father would have still been arrested and the doctors can't help someone going into a coma" I said while standing up to start pasing back and forth.

"or maybe... She would have known I would end up with her diary" "Cassie what's that got to do with it" Steve quizzed me "what if everything in that diary... In that note... Is a lie so I don't find out the truth!" I said with a enthusiastic tone of voice.

Which soon it turned into anger, "I still don't know. Why don't you go talk to your Father?" when Steve said that a tear rolled down my face "yeah... But he was telling the truth and I screamed at him I should have just listened to him instead of having a go at him... What if that was the last chance to see him".

"Cassie you can't think like that come on... We'll go for a walk get some fresh air and figure this out another time" I smiled at his suggestion "it can't be another time... Because once we think about it, it might be too late... But I nice walk sounds right round about now".

It was a nice place Steve took me to, it was a grassy park with a massive lake, I was breathing in all the fresh air until I spotted at teenager about the same age as me.

I don't like to be around other teenagers even though I am one but I know what there like they can be nasty as I was correct this teen was.

"hey!..." the teen said obviously talking to me I stopped what I was doing so that I could look at him "aren't you that girl who's insane?!" I tried to fight back the tears I faced away from the teen so he couldn't see me crying.

I heard a little chuckle from the teen as he did Steve tried to pull me away to walk away from him but I stood my ground I wasn't moving "isn't your mom like... Dead!?" this time sadness turned into anger I closed my eyes to try and ignore the awful words of the teen.

They can talk about me all they want But nobody talks about my family all of a sudden I was charging at him I pushed him to the floor and started to strangulate him, Steve tried to get me off him but my anger and the adrenaline got the best of me normally Steve could lift me with ease I was light as a feather but now I probably felt like a ton of bricks I kept on putting all my anger and sadness into hurting this teen I couldn't stop even if I want to I was going to kill this teen.

The teen started to go all purple fighting for his life and just the breath one last time so he could live a little longer Sooner or later the teen took his last breath I stood up in anger but turned to Steve in shock "I'm so sorry Steve I.. I.. I didn't mean to... Please don't tell them... Please" I begged him "its okay... The little brat deserved it... Shit... You go over there far away from the body" I just nodded to his instructions.

I didn't question nor complain he was doing me a massive favour... As seen as I'm nearly 18 I could be locked into the asylum forever, I found myself a little bench to sit on at the other side of the park where I can't see the body.

Once I'm sat in the distance I could hear a little bark I scanned around the park to find the tiny dog there in the distance I see the tiny dog but not too far away that I could see it's features my mouth dropped as I stared at the dog.

chihuahua, fluffy and most importantly only three legs "Bruce!?" I said to myself, my curiosity got the best of me and I started to follow him.

He headed towards the teens body my mouth dropped I rubbed my eyes did my eyes deceive me there stood was Callie and Corey they dropped the teens body as I gasped.

"holy... Fuck!... What is this!?" I screamed at them "oh my it's like standing in a mirror...your Father wasn't wrong you look exactly like me" "yeah... My temper though" as my Father said that they both sniggered at it.

"this is no laughing matter your alive... Your not in jail... What the hell is going on?!" I cried at them my Father signed while lighting a cigarette "when did you smoke?"i quizzed him "okay look I'll tel you everything" my Father said while sitting on the grass "well...i didn't get arrested" "and I'm not in a coma" they both said "well... No shit sherlock!".

"okay... Okay... Everything was a lie" my Father said while smirking at me "what do you mean?" I quizzed him before he could speak mg Mother cut him off "we did it so we didn't get arrested... Steve who's been a very good friend to me helped build a fake prison" "but the hospital wasn't fake... I've been there" I said while tilting my head in confusion.

"no but I knew you was going to check if I was alive..." she replied back "how did you know?" I quizzed her "we've been following you all your life everywhere you go we go but you just didn't see us" I was so shocked to my Mother awnser I did not believe this.

"what about all the lies in your diary then?" I interrogated her "ohh... You got my diary... Everything in there was a lie... Me going into a coma lie, your Father getting arrested a lie... I wrote those things so when the police found it they would leave us alone.

"all this makes sense now... But why didn't you at least tell me?" "because... You'd want to see us all the time but you couldn't because the police would get suspicious" before my mom could finish my Father cut her off "and we didn't know if we could trust you yet" once he said that he kicked the teens body "but I guess we can now".

My Mother slapped him round the head to what he just said I chuckled a little "I guess your insane... Just like us" as my Father said that u smiled widely at him "I guess you forgive us then" my mom asked I nodded at smiled at her, "the both of you... Got rid of all my bodies I killed while I was in the orphanage... Weren't you?" I quizzed them both all they did was look at each other and smiled widely at me I didn't even need a reply to that.

All of a sudden Bruce can bolting to us and barking at my parents" why is he barking?" I questioned my parents "shit!" my Father shouted "it all so means get ready to run soon!" my Mother cried while placing her hand on my shoulder, my parents kicked the teens body into the lake "run!" my Father screamed at me they started running and as so did I with Bruce bolting beside us as we could hear the loud police sirens get louder I could see Steve in the distance waving back at me I smiled as a thank you for everything he kept me in check gave me love I never hand from a adult I will never forget him for this.

We all paused as we couldn't hear the police sirens anymore "do you think we lost them?" I questioned my parents while I bent over to try and catch my breath I looked up to them "I'm not sure but we better head home just incase" my Father said trying to breath he started gulping so much to try and get his breath back "did you train Bruce to do that?" I questioned them my Mother nodded at me "I did it" my Father said to me "it comes in handy when your getting carried away" my Mother said while smiling widely, I thought to myself home? We're actually going to be a a family together... Well just a little insane family everything I worked for all the killings to get there attention I got it finally.

Love can come in all different colours, shapes and sizes you got to fight for it but be prepared it could be dangerous but love doesn't mean between two people I could mean family or friends but in my case it's family which I finally have there a little insane... But so am I... But if it wasn't for them I wouldn't be the person who I am today or maybe just maybe I wouldn't kill.

Now I'm guessing you want to know what's happens to us now?... Are we together as a family?... Do my parents have to go back to lying to the police?...what happened to Steve?... Do I have to go back to the asylum?... Or are we on the run from something?... That's a different story for a different time, it's not the end to our story but it's a new chapter for someone else.

Everything I did was just to get them back and I did I have my parents back I did it for love and the love from my parents, love is a strange thing isn't it? like I said for their story I'm saying the exact same thing for mine the unknown could be quite dangerous love.
