Little Bit of Heaven

Lonely

I sniffled some as I heard the hard footsteps of my old teachers. They all were so cruel to me... Taking feathers, taking blood, taking magic and sweat, even tears!

I made a face, scrunching my eyes close. They were the only ones to come down here... They were the only ones who seemed to remember me down here...

After mother had sent me down here, I could hear shouting and things being destroyed. I could feel Heaven shake and shudder, at some points, I wondered if it would break. I had hopped it would break. If it broke, then I would be freed to go back to Mr. Jam and I would never have to come back here!

Yet, after who knows how long, all went quiet, the world was still there. Stable and quiet. It stayed like that, but I was alone. I was alone in the darkness, with the stone walls being covered in moss and creepy bugs.

The loneliness was  unbearable. Any noise I made, echoed around me, the air felt stiff to my lungs, and the ground was too hard and greasy to the touch. It didn't help that after a long while, my stomach began to tighten, I was growing hungry... Then my throat became dry, so dry that trying to talk felt awful!

After many days, maybe a few months, they appeared again. They both were scared horribly, Undyne more than Alphys, but they both looked twisted. They truly looked like monsters.

They quietly spoke with each other as they glared at me with disgust and hate. They looked at me like I was a mistake, like I was nothing! Then they left, returning quickly with some stale food and dirty water.

I didn't care at that point and dove for both. The food was rough on my sore throat, tasteless really and felt like sand. The water wasn't any better, I think it was worse, barely helping my sore and dry throat feel normal again, making it feel disgusting as it slide down.  Yet, I kept eating and drinking till both plate and cup were empty.

The two shook their heads at me, silent. They found the way I acted was disgusting, like it wasn't a normal reaction to being starved for who knows how long!

After that, they came at irregular times, either bringing stale, rotten food and drinks, or they brought tools to use against me.

I quickly shook my head, it didn't matter how I ended up here... It's a useless thing to try and question or think anything else. This is where I'll be till Jam gets me...

Tears brimmed my eyes, my legs pulling themselves against my chest. It had been so long since I last saw him... Does he even know where I am? Does he hate me? Think I ran away?

More tears filled my eyes, making me hide my face. I didn't want them to see me cry... I didn't want to see their disgusted faces. This didn't mean though, that I couldn't hear them.

"Pathetic." A gravely voice grunted out. "Such a weakly, a waste truly."

"Behave!" Snapped a hushed voice. "They had aided us with many. We have not had a True Fallen in our arms in so long, they are urging me to do more." The voice's harshness calmed to a cooing sound of interest and demented curiosity.

I winced. A True Fallen. The perfect hybrid of a Demon and an Angel... Something that hasn't happened in a long time... They talk about it so much, about what I give them, it is sickening.

I huddled into my rotten corner more, pulling myself closer. I didn't want them touching me... Only Jam should touch me.

Suddenly the ground shook, it shook hard enough that I was flung from my corner and onto the ground in front of the bars. The shaking slowly calmed down after a while, but something didn't feel right...

Looking up, I saw fear and confusion on my guards faces. They then hurried away, dropping the scissors and syringes, and everything else they brought in to hurt me with! Those blasted things clattered loudly, bouncing and rolling on the floor, making painful noises.

Wincing, I forced myself to stand up. I gritted my teeth some as I felt my body shake, my stomach tightening and my breathing get heavy. It was difficult to even get in a squatting position! How long have I gone without a proper meal?

I shake my head, biting my lip, gripping onto the rusty metal bars in a death grip. The world shook again, but I could hear screams. Was another revolt happening?

I went to shake my head at the thought, but an explosion, rocked the world, making me hit my head on the rough bar. A cry left my lips as I released the metal, falling back a bit.

I scrunched my eyes close, the screams and loud explosions seeming to surround me. My head hurt horribly, but I couldn't do anything about it. Not here, not with whatever's happening!

My chest began to feel tight, it heaving up and down. I could feel my face become wet with tears, my nose filled with snot, it was all too much... Then, I burst. I started sob, my hands pressed themselves into my ears, I could feel myself shout at times, but I don't know what I was saying...

I just needed Jam... I needed my Demon. I needed him! Where was he!
