Well this is an unexpected turn of events(Phobos X Reader)

Terms of an Agreement

(A/N: quick thank you for a 1k reads, I would have never expected that my little X Reader thing would get this far honestly, with it being my 3rd published fanfic (well second if you dont count the nonsense Swap Au one I have up too). This really means alot to me)

You were someone who holds their word...and sometimes you regretted that. You....have to mop the floor right now because of this, you made a deal, you get one of those fancy access cards....aaaand you mop the floor for them. You re-evaluated if this was really worth it to get the card after having mopped around half of the level. 

"Im the lead scientists assistant and this is how i am being treated." You muttered, yes you couldnt lie, sometimes your own position got to your head. 
"Your position doesnt help you out that much Y/N" You jumped at that sudden voice, Crackpot, right...hes following you around
"Dont....you have your own projects to attent to?" You questioned the...somewhat deranged looking scientist who wears some sort of helmet, funky looking thing.
"Oh I do, I just take my sweet time with then- ehe. no rush afterall" The scientist snorted as he cackled. 
"Then you have forgotten where you work." You bit back, you...arent to big of a fan. Okay, to your defense...hes stalking you.
"Ohohoho, someone got a little bit of fire in them." He mused. You were afraid he would break into your personal space again but he seemed to hold his distance this time.
"I suppose, now...please leave me alone, I just want to get this over with." You sighed in an annoyed tone as you looked back at the mop.
".....You coulda just asked the director for one of these shiny cards." Crackpot had that smug tone on him once he spotted your new access card.
"I didnt want to bother him more than I already have to." You replied dryly, trying to make a point you didnt want to speak to Crackpot anylonger.
"..You wish you could though." he said in a mocking tone. How long has he been following you exactly?
That was when you snapped, almost pouncing on the doctor.
"OKAY THATS ENOUGH! NOW....." You stopped yourself from yelling as you realised the situation and how it could get you in trouble if anyone saw you as Crackpot can just claim that you attacked him first. You got off him and brushed yourself off "Leave." you finally finished your sentence. You didnt even know what came over you.
Yet the scientist just cackled as he left, seeming to know more than you do.

"...Strange guy." you muttered as you continued on your job, ssometimes your vision would flash into a purple tone, you became worried at that. Yet, everything must be fine right? You were being monitored, its just a sudden spike. Itll calm down eventually right? Right. That will happen. You are sure of it.

You walked around as you finished closing up some of the rooms next to the lab, only to be somewhat jumpscared by Dr Christoffs sudden appearance from the shadows.
"Christoff! You scared me." You basecly huffed out in relieve, you thought that Hive Slug from the other day finally got you.
"I apologize Dr Y/N. The Director wants to see you." He simply said as he crossed his arms
"Really? So late? just before my shift ends?" You questioned and Christoff just nodded. 
"And he did not look pleased." The lead scientist commented.
Your blood ran cold, you remembered that you basecly jumped at Dr Crackpot earlier, he may have said something about it. Damnit. The last thing you wanted is to anger him more.

The office felt colder as you entered it, as if an icy wind was blowing. As expected you saw Crackpot next to him, goddamn snitch. The directors claws were folded as he looked at you expectantly, as if waiting for something, yet he didnt say anything.
"Did...I do something?" you decided to play oblivious.
"Would you mind explaining yourself as to why you assaulted one of my higher ranked scientists?" The Director asked, he seemed to have his usual persona up when in presence of other co-workers.
Words hung in your throat, you tried to find a way to say this all without making yourself sound like "the victim" you know what you did was unnecessary and painting yourself as the victim would probably only raise red flags on you.
"I..." You started but were cut off by Crackpot
"Whats the matter Y/N, lost for words?" Goddamn bastard.
Yet Phobos cleared his throat, a sign for Crackpot to quiet down, to which he seemed to obey
"...I....must apologize, I have felt watched and stalked 24/7 in the last final days, while I have to say that it may have just gotten to my head, I do have to admit that this was absolutely unnecessary, I should have tried to negotiate something instead of going into an assault." You finally found the words to talk.
The Director seemed indifferent about this entire situation, almost looked hollow when you looked at him, a feeling of uneasyness washed over you.
"Weeeeeeeeellllll, I suuuuuuuppose i could let this slide without a lawsuit iiiiiiiiiiif....you assist me tomorrow." Crackpot intentionally dragged out his words.
"But I have work of my own to do!" You retaliated
"Crackpot..." The Director sighed tiredly
"What? I have alot of work on my back- Psht, besides, we all know Christoff can do things on his own." the deranged scientist said
"...." You remained quiet, seathing in your own anger as you shifted uncomfortably in your standing position.
"Its either that or a lawsuit" Crackpot shrugged. Why did he want your help so badly out of everyone?
"You must be mistaken Dr Crackpot, i still make the decisions here." The God Emperor raised his voice at that. It doesnt seem like as if he liked it when others where in controle of situations above him for once.
"Well yes. But your highness wouldnt you agree that Project Zed needs some more... hands to work on?" the masked doctor inquired as he put his hands besides his back.
"While I do have to agree that we are severely understaffed when it comes to the matters and concerns of Project Zed. Dr Y/N have their place and own project to work on." He stood his ground on his statement
"It would only be a day, Director. Besides, its killing 2 birds with 1 stone. I wont issue a lawsuit against Y/N and they will help me with Project Zed to help it advance further. And considering how we all know how Christoff likes to work...Y/N hasnt been doing much besides running for materials...." Crackpot stated which actually made Phobos consider it.
"...Continue." The God emperor said in an almost commanding tone.
"Director, you cannot seriously consider this." You basecly pleaded at this point.
"Silence, please." Phobos said holding one of his claws up to quiet you down, he was actually considering it wasnt he? "Let the man talk." He added
"You see, my god. I have my hands full, I barely can hold up my daily quota because of my section being understaffed, Now i know the cameras are broken in my section, but i can assure you, I will not harm Y/N and if i do somehow, you are free to slay me in any way you would like. In return for....the both of you, no lawsuit and maybe even some clearance on ...Y/Ns personal issues hmm? Is it a deal?" Crackpot asked, this slimy little....
"...I suppose we do have an agreement on this term." The director replied.
you wanted to speak up, but you knew that you had 0 say in this.

Great, now you have to deal with this...lunatic for a day, in a section with no supervision and on a project you had again 0 idea about. You just knew that you were going to hate it. Oh well, better to just bring it behind you, who knows, maybe youll even learn to.....tolerate the guy.
