Jervis Tetch ~ My Alice

Amber walked through the dirty, hollow halls of Arkham as her hair fell into her face as she fought the guards as they ripped her skin.
Amber was smart but rabid as her blood-red eyes scanned hell itself.
Blood still covered her body as the cuffs holding her wrists broke the skin causing blood to drip onto the floor.
The guards kept giving her sedatives but nothing was working.
Her body burned it off from years of using negative to kill her mind after her stepfather started molesting her while doing things that made the sain sob in their clean hands.
She was moved past the wreck room as inmates looked at her.

Jervis sat at a table with a chessboard in front of him when he saw her.
A succubus being held back by four guards.
He looked at her as their eyes met.
Her eyes told him so much as well as the pain inside her veins.
"Why isn't she the most perfect creature?" said Jervis in a breathless voice.
Jerome turned around as the guards threw her into a wall after she refused to move.
"She's hot," said Jerome laughing.
"Of course but she looks to be so much more.
I want her, she'll be my Alice" said Jervis.
Jerome looked at him and laughed "You'll protect her.
Keep the stupid guards away from her" said Jerome smiling.
"Of course, I won't lose my love again," said Jervis.

Amber was thrown into a cell causing her body to feel like she had been hit by a mountain.
She turned around and looked at the door as her mind screamed from the voices.
She stood up and flopped on her bed as she felt sick.
The guards watched her as she tried to sleep.
Blood ran down her face as she cut lines on her left arm to relax herself as she closed her eyes unaware of what was outside.
Suddenly he heard the door unlock as it swing open.
She looked at the four to see a tall man wearing a newspaper top hat with a smart posture.
She stood up and looked at him "Hello pretty pigeon you make my heart pounce" said Jervis.
She looked at him and raised an eyebrow "Your Jervis Tetch" she said.
"Indeed," he said.
"Im Amber, now that we know each other's names why are you in here and why shouldn't I rip out your beautiful brown eyes," she said in her husky feminine voice.
"I crave to protect you, women need a guard in this hellscape," said Jervis smiling.
"What can you offer me?
You don't look like a man that would fight" she said.
"I can hypnotise," he said.
"Can you cure insomnia?" she said quickly.
"Indeed," said Jervis.
"Your mine now, now show me.
Make me pass out" said Amber looking into his eyes desperately.
He smiled and started snapping "Look into my eyes, not above them or around them, straight into the centre," said Jervis remembering when he used to perform.
She looked into his eyes as his pupil expanded until his eyes were completely black.
She froze as he smiled "You feel exhausted, you crave sleep.
You will lay in the bed and sleep while I hold you" said Jervis.
Amber laid in bed as Jervis laid next to her and wrapped his arms around her feeling her ribs through her thin skin.
He felt as happy as when Alice was alive but this was euphoric like a heavy drug.

The morning after Jervis hypnotised her she felt euphoric as she broke from the trance.
She sat next to Jervis as they ate.
She sat alone too often and with him next to her was weird.
Suddenly a bang hit her table as she looked up to see a man without his tiny eye.
She looked at him with a blank face "You're finally here, what's it like to be like all of us.
An animal in a cage" she growled.
Suddenly Jervis stood up and said rhymes as he made the man hit his head on a wall continuously.
"Thanks, I did that to his face.
He tried to rape me when was sixteen," said Amber smiling as the man's head cracked open causing blood to fall down the wall as his body slid down.
He looked at her "Who would do such a thing?" he said.
"Men," she said looking at him.
"I wouldn't ever do such a thing," said Jervis.
"No, because I would rip out your throat if you tried," said Amber.
She smiled at him and she held his hand.
"We'll protect each other," she said.
"Of course," he said rubbing her hand.
