Proxy in Command (Creepypasta X Reader)

Chapter 40

I shot my eyes open as I scanned the room. I was relieved Zalgo was gone despite what had happened yesterday. I moved the bedsheets only to find that I was in sweats and a hoodie. Panic started to flood as I thought who had changed me into these clothes. I laid back on the bed and closed my eyes again, wishing I can wake up from this nightmare.

Immediately, I felt a presence in the room. I kept my eyes closed and slowed my breathing. The figure pulled the bedsheets away to carry me. I felt a gust of wind before realizing they had teleported us somewhere. The figure placed me somewhere comfortable before walking away. After a few minutes, I finally opened my eyes and saw that I was on the same patio from yesterday. The fire table had been replaced with an actual table

Zalgo was still in his human form. He was serving (Favorite Drink) in a cup before turning around to look at me.

"I made us breakfast, my dear."

I sat up before rolling my eyes. "You did or your servants?"

"It's the same thing," he chuckled before placing a plate of (Breakfast Choice) in front of me.

As he sat down, one of his minions entered the room. Zalgo growled before he turned back to his true figure, and glared at his minion.

"How many times do I have to repeat myself for you not to interrupt us!" He yelled before he shot a fireball at his minion, causing him to burn to ashes. I sat there unamused knowing he's capable of killing his minions.

He turned around before he turned into his human figure again.

"I apologize, my dear. I can assure you that will be the only time I lose my temper."

I scoffed as I avoided his gaze while eating. "You lost it last night when I spoke the truth."

Zalgo sighed before he began eating. "I admit I crossed the line but as I said, I can assure you that won't happen again."

I quietly ate my food as I looked at the scenery on my left. A maze made of dead plants was there with a few trees filled with pomegranates.

After I was done checking it out, I placed my plate on the table and brought my legs in front of my chest. I recalled all those times I had breakfast with the pastas. It saddens me that I wouldn't be able to experience that anymore.

"What's going on in that pretty head of yours?"

I sighed before examining the black shiny titles on the floor.

"I just miss the others, that's all."

Zalgo took his last bite before placing the plate to the side.

"If you like, I can show you what they're currently doing."

My eyes lit up with curiosity. "You could do that?"

"Of course. How do you think I knew a few things from the mansion?" He grinned before standing up.

He raised his hands to make the table turn into the fire table again. A giant fire orb was formed with an image inside. I furrowed my eyebrows and leaned forward as the image became clearer.

The pastas were all having breakfast while E.J had his kidneys. My original spot was now taken by Masky. They seemed to be at peace. I wanted them to move on with their lives instead of grieving my absence.

"Does this mean Masky replaced me? Sally won't be trained to become a proxy?"

"That's exactly right, my dear."

A soft smile was plastered on my lips knowing that my wish had come true. I felt more at peace knowing Sally wouldn't be following in my footsteps.

"See darling, they're acting as if you never existed." He made the fireball disappear so that I can face him. "But you have me and that's all that matters."
