Part 2- Francis shall die

Dr. Caligari POV

I gave Cesare the special treatment. He stays in a separate room where he can sleep in his favorite box. He looks so peaceful now. I feed him gruel every day as well as the rest of my patients. Francis has been so stubborn about it. The servants have to hold him down most of the time. I watch over my patients at a balcony. I am no longer watching Francis anymore since the servants are taking over. Cesare, on the other hand, is in a room. I guess the pressure of the other patients is making him overwhelmed.

Jane POV

That night, while Dr. Caligari watch us from a distance, I had that strangest curiosity to see Cesare. I snuck into the room where Cesare is sleeping in a box. I sat down on my knees and then look down at Cesares face. He's so peaceful in his sleep. Out of consciousness, my right hand touch his hair. The hair was shaggy but smooth to the touch. I heard from Francis that the only way to wake him up is if you command him to wake up. "Wake up Cesare!" the words came out automatically. Like magic, he slowly opened his eyes and then looked at me. I hope I didn't wake him up from his dream. He's like a new born opened to the new world. His breathing became harsh and his eyes wide open. Now he looks like his world is full of torture. I step back not wanting to cause anymore trouble. "I was searching for you Jane". I looked back and I see Caligari standing straight with a cane in one hand. "I'm sorry Dr. Caligari" I looked down and then start to wallow in my self pity. "Don't be sorry. Your health is quite improving". I hear him leave and then all I can hear is Cesares unsteady breathing patterns. I step out of the room so Cesare can rehabilitate himself. Maybe fall right back to sleep. I wonder why Dr. Caligari left after saying that my health is improving. It's true, but why am I still here?

Francis POV

"Get me out of this jacket!" I yelled trying to brake free from this damn jacket. I looked around to see if the servants are watching me. They were gone. Looks like they're not doing their job. I was able to get the opportunity to run away. First I have to find Jane. I  see her sleeping on the floor. Sleeping on the floor?! I ran over to her then knelt down next to her. I can't shake her because my arms are trapped in this jacket. I gave up on everything I thought about. So I dropped right next to her feeling vulnerable. Why Caligari?! Why?! I'm at the point where I'm going to be the number one lunatic in this insane asylum. I wish I could fall into a eternal sleep with Jane by my side. One of the servants rushed to me and Jane. "Get up, Caligari doesn't approve of this". Ah that again. That horrible name ringing in my ear. That name should never exist anymore. "Get up already!". I slowly got up with all my strength. The dumb servant should just pick me up, at least. But yet this is a nut house. It's just torture everyday. "If I see you on the ground again, I have to put you in a room for the most unstable". So Cesare is the most unstable, huh? I lay on an uncomfortable bed looking at the servant picking Jane up and putting her back in a chair. The sound of the other patients suffering made me even more uncomfortable. I closed my eyes and start to think about freedom and the outside world. Wouldn't be lovely if I could sit on a comfortable couch with my love and just simply relax without worrying so much. I'm afraid to open my eyes because I know that there will be torture. The good thing about my thoughts is that Jane is free and more beautiful than ever. She wears rich clothing of a Queen. Her hair is full of lovely curls. Her lips as red as an apple. I opened my eyes slowly and then a slap of suffering came over me.

Dr. Caligari POV

I walked into Cesares room to check on him. He was still asleep in his box. Wonderful! I command him to wake up. He slowly sits up along with his eyes. "Cesare, I want you to kill Francis. I have enough of him. Now go". With that command, he slowly gets out of his box. I hand him a knife. "He should be asleep by now". Well of course since it's finally dark out. A smirk swept through my lips but Cesares  lips were still frowning. He walks out of the room in search for that Francis. Who's usually at the far end of the insane asylum. I wait in Cesares room for his return.

Cesare POV

"You'll die by dawn. Tomorrow"  I thougt about what I said to that guy with Francis. Could be a friend or brother of his. Dr. Caligari knows his ways in manipulating people. Or is it just me that he manipulates. Either way, he's good. I walk tentively to where Francis is sleeping. I raise my knife at my destination. Right over Francis sleeping form. I swiftly charge my hand with the knife towards Francis back. All of sudden I stopped. The tip of the knife just inches away from his back. For some reason I can't find myself to do it. Dr. Caligari would be mad but I feel different. It's like I'm sane in this insane asylum.
