I Have Never Been Happier - Donna Beneviento × Reader

First Person P.O.V - (Y/N)

-I'm not entirely sure how long it been since I had fallen asleep, or whenever I did. I just know that I woke up to the sound of banging, and I looked at the gaping hole when I heard it. The sunlight was peering in, past the familiar face I'd actually seen yesterday.
-"Hey there pussy cat, in a little bit of a pickle are ya?" Heisenberg mocked me, laughing, before I got up and approached him.
-"Did you tell her?" I ask. "Or did she just.. Show up?"
-"I didn't tell mama bear shit." Heisenberg leans on, and he takes his sunglasses off, getting onto my level of vulnerability. I could basically read him now that I didn't have his glasses in my way, I could see the visibility of hurt, anguish, a sense of vengeance ringing out to those eyes, they were basically painting a picture for me. "I put a little something of mine on your back."
-He flicks his finger up, and a little metal piece comes off of my back, and once I get a good look at it as it went up to his face, it was a microphone. I throw my brows and confusion, looking back at him and he was quick to give me a good answer.
-"I how to make sure you weren't one of her spies, you know? She plays a lot of games, making sure she can catch any one of us lacking. It wasn't going to be me, and it certainly wasn't going to be Salvatore Moreau, because just like everyone else, he is dumb enough to believe that the woman loves him."
-

"So you're on my side about this?"
-"With the both of us together, we can take her down!" Heisenberg is still sticking to whispering, for some reason.
-"Who else is here?" I ask, and he smiles at me before he looks behind him. That was when Donna came out from the trees and into my view, and she rushed up to see me once she spotted me. "Donna?!"
-"(Y/N)!" Donna removed her veil automatically and grabbed my hand through the hole we have, and I can't help but smile.
-"Hey." I laugh joyously, leaning forward in attempts to get through enough to see her best, seeing how she smiles at me. "Are you okay?"
-"Are you?!"
-"I'm fine, completely fine." I say, and she seems to be inspecting my eyes.
-"What happened to you?"
-"..Mother Miranda gave me a gift."
-"Th-That's great!--"
-"No it's not." I shake my head, and Donna didn't seem to smile anymore. "Nothing about what she does, is great. You have to believe me."
-"(Y/N)--"
-"Please, listen to me." I get both hands through, taking her palm in both of my own. "She's horrible, Donna. The things she's done to you people, what she's done to Lady Dimitrescu, to Salvatore? That's no kind of love I've ever seen before. It's not even love."
-"I think you're just not seeing things the way--"
-"Donna, tell me. Your scar was just a scar, then she chucked you up full of this.. This... Megamycete she calls it, and now all you really can do is hide and talk to your dolls and... I don't think you realize how alone you are when you live like this."
-"I'm.. (Y/N)." Donna shakes her head. "Mother Miranda is our mother, she gave us these gifts because we deserved them."
-"So Moreau, just some fisherman on the dock who loves his mom deserves to be mutated into a blob of fish flesh and constantly vomits? You have any idea how painful it is to vomit sometimes?"
-"B-But--"
-"Lady Dimitrescu lost her entire singing career and is forced to eat anyone human to survive, she'll never be able to connect to anyone, ever."
-"(Y/N)--"
-"Donna, she killed Eclipse and put the cat inside of me. I was watching it happen from above myself, she killed me. She's killed all of us, just because she wants to bring back her child that she's already lost." It goes quiet for a moment longer, and Donna seemed to press her lips tight. I know what she's thinking, that she would have done it too, knowing how much she's lost, but.. "She's spent hundreds of years trying to do this, but you and I both know there's no bringing back what's already gone.. We know it all too well."
-Donna drops her head just slightly, looking down at the ground and recalling everything that she's been through. Mother Miranda gives her this so called gift, denying her of any chance to reconnect with the people of the village despite her scar, and next thing she knows she's being treated like an outcast, like a monster, more than anything she's ever been treated like. She's gifted something spectacular, sure, but in reality, she knows deep down that it's just a curse. Mother Miranda give her someone, gave her a gift, and then took them away from her, for Mother Miranda's own selfish needs. Mother Miranda doesn't care.
-Mother Miranda doesn't care.
-"... We've gotta get rid of her." Donna says, basically whispering it, and the look of surprise that comes onto Heisenberg's face is absolutely picture worthy.
-"What did you say?" Heisenberg asks, and Donna turns to him.
-"You heard (Y/N), didn't you?" Donna asks. "Mother Miranda doesn't love us. We're just pawns.. Think about it--"
-"I-I know that!" Heisenberg brings his hands to his chest, a smile coming onto his face. "Y-You know it! You know the truth!"
-"Heisenberg, you're smiling a bit too big." I laugh, and Heisenberg laughs with me.
-"you have no idea how long I've been.. Okay." Heisenberg takes a deep breath and sighs it out. "How can I know for sure that you mean what you say?"
-I reach over and grab Heisenberg's shoulder, and his eyes widen at me. "Believe me, Heisenberg. We've got a good thing going here.. We can do this, all three of us. We're all in it together."
-"..We're all in it together." Heisenberg nods, his white eyes becoming orange as he says it, as if he's repeating himself. Then he turns to Donna. "Okay, I've got a plan!"
-What did I just do to him? I look at my hand. That didn't need any convincing at all, he just believe me. Like I got into his head or something, hell.. Did I even say that out loud?
-I look at Donna, and then I hold her hand tighter, and she looks at me, making eye contact. I think once again, in the same way I did before. "You're right, Mother Miranda is our enemy."
-Donna nods silently, eye glinting in orange, and looks at Heisenberg. "What's your plan?" She doesn't even seem against it anymore, not even slightly hesitant. Like she's already over the guilt of betraying Mother Miranda.
-"It's gotta start with (Y/N)." Heisenberg explains, even as I let go of Donna's hand and then I blink a couple of times, and I look at my hands, wondering which part of me is telekinetically speaking to them.
-Then it hits me. Cats can you staring us a nonverbal way of communicating, however this is a different more powerful way of working.
-I've learned something new about myself.. I'm more powerful than I thought.

-It was later that evening when mother Miranda came by to visit me, and I had my knees stuck to my chest. She had opened way through the Megamycete branches and walked into the living room, stepping up beside me. I look up at her, my orange blaming eyes staring back into hers. I try it on her, but...
-"You trust me."
-It doesn't work. As a matter of fact, it seems like she's more powerful than I am, and I'm incapable of getting into her head. Not even her eyes shimmer. "Have you learned your lesson?"
-"Yes Mother." I say, getting on to my knees and pathetically bowing before her despite my own hatred for it. "I trust in you my heart and soul, my everything. I'm sorry I was so disobedient, I didn't realize how.. How wonderful my power it is, how grateful I should be."
-She reaches down, and lifts me up by my jaw. She's trying to read me, and I try once again, with all that I've got. "You believe me."
-Her blue eyes shine just barely, but it's enough to get a small smile on her face. "You're getting there.. I reckon another day will set you in the right place, just one more."
-"Yes Mother."
-"Good.. You'll be good for me soon enough."
-She lets me go, and I watch her leave. Just as the darkness surrounds me, I smile to myself.. Like lamb to the slaughter.
