Demon's Fall (Dead by Daylight Oni x Fem-Reader)

Chapter 12: Ill-fated Introductions

Your vision faded in slowly. The sounds of a crackling fire tickled your ears with familiarity. Before the first lights of the flames could be processed, you knew where you were. The Entity always brought you back from the trials here. This cursed fire that acted like some anchor, trapping your soul in this infernal realm.

"Jeez, Freddy really didn't like you, huh sugar?" you heard a feminine voice ask you. As your vision cleared up enough to take in the scenery, you scanned to see whom had addressed you. Your eyes locked with Kate's, who was watching you, biting her lower lip in anticipation.

"W-who now?" you sputtered out, shaking your head to get rid of the grogginess.

"The killer who was watching you like a hawk last trial, (Y/N)" Kate replied. "His name's Freddy. Real nasty piece of work. Heard he used ta kill kids before he got here."

That got your attention. Your head snapped back to look at Kate, hoping for anything to tell you she was lying. You knew she wasn't though. Too many horrors to not expect this kind too.

"Damnit! Of course the kid killer takes special interest in me. I hate it here."

"Shhhh! Keep it down. The Entity loves putting you against things you hate. Feeds it more." Dwight interjects

You cry out in frustration again, your arms sinking down to your sides and laying on the log you were plopped on upon arrival.

"Hey, it could be nothing. Weren't you selected to be the obsession?" Jonah proposed with a faint, hopeful smile.

"Not how it works, I'm afraid." Felix corrected Jonah. The blank, flushed face Felix wore made Jonah's expression sink with it.

The focus returns to the original point of the conversation as you add your own insight.

"He did make some comment about the special arrangement I seem to have going. Must've got jealous." You snicker at your own jab at the melted man.

You got a few chuckles around the bonfire before everyone faded into silence. Four more of your companions were being called into a trial. The Entity must really be starved right now to pull them in so quickly. You've learned since your arrival to take whatever time you had outside of these twisted games to relax a little, and to think about your past life before being brought here. Memories were slowly returning, albeit in chucks and they didn't always make sense, but it was better than nothing.

From what you could gather, you seemed to have had a child of some kind. Many of the flashbacks had featured a toddler, no older than three by your guess, playing with you in what you assume what your old house. The home was spartan in appearance, only the utilities, tables, and seats of one kind or another filled the space. You did have a few photos sprinkled on the walls, however. One at least of an elderly couple in the foyer, and another of yourself and a baby hanging next to the kitchen counter. Did you have a child before being taken? Were they okay? These sorts of thoughts could easily bring you to your knees with anguish, but you held it in. You didn't know all the pieces of this puzzle just yet, you told yourself.

It was a short-lived comfort and reprieve from the mental anguish, you knew that. Your thoughts would inevitably return to your past, trying to work it out until you were satisfied. Still, it was needed.

For now, you turned to thinking about your relationship with Kazan, and what about it could be upsetting the killer known as Freddy. It was beneficial for all the parties involved, and didn't hurt anyone else, so what could the problem be? Maybe that was the problem? It was apparently a never before seen even in the Entity's realms. Something different from the trials would be inciting to a lot of people, even the killers.

"Meatbag, listen. Looks like the Entity's getting soft around here. We might be able to use this as an opportunity and get the plan moving." a husky, strained voice stated. You could practically hear the anticipation in his voice. A low moan was provided in response, and then the fog wrapped around the two as they split up again.
