Breaking out of the heavily guarded psychiatric hospital wasn't easy for Bassy. There was constant monitoring on her cell block, where many of St. Nicholas Hospital's notorious escapees were known to have resided. Before the block was converted to house female patients, notorious figures like the "
Black Dog Strangler" once walked those same halls, slept in those same beds, and screamed all night long.
No one noticed how Bassy slipped away from her tiny concrete corner, far from the view of the CCTV, and past the menacingly oppressive guards. She must've used one of the old holes to crawl into the city sewers, one article wrote, but the hospital staff made sure every nook, cranny, crack, and crevice was filled full of bricks and cement. Then she must've charmed her way into the guards' hearts and minds, one Reddit user posted, but both the guards' testimonies and CCTV camera records show that Bassy never once physically opened her cell and walked out.
"...What if she'd used magic?" commented a passing stranger during a TV docu-series's retelling of Bassy's story.
"Well, she was sent to the psychiatric hospital after making a man levitate 50 feet off the ground and then throwing him out of a two-story window?" said the camera man.
"Yes, but no one bothered to find out why she did it." said the strange woman, cradling a small albino rabbit in her arms.
"I read a theory from an article in the dark net about that," chimed the host of the investigative docu-series, "the man was a descendant of the judge sentenced her ancestors to burn at the stake during the Salem Witch trials. They've since been planning and training their descendants to exact revenge at just the right moment... but people have yet to figure out when that is."
"The time will come soon..." whispered the strange woman, stroking her pet rabbit. She bid adieu and crossed the street, disappearing just as a black bus drove past behind her.
EDIT: I got way too into this, sorry eheh ( 。•_• 。)
