A god's Favourite Toy (Yandere Xenophanes x Male Reader)

Something He Shouldn't Have Seen

(Y/N POV)

Ok, I think the game is starting to effect me mentally now, I can't get much sleep due to constant nightmares I keep having. The first one involved me standing in one of the special stages, staring at a chaos emerald until "Sonic" grabbed it and shattered it in his hand before putting the shards into my palm. The second nightmare had me in Green Hill Zone, freely walking through the luscious plains until I came across a pond. Right when I peered in to see my reflection, my vison was blurred until the third and final nightmare occurred. In that one, I was starring at a bunch of corpses, some recognisable, some unrecognisable, as my hands, or rather gloves were stained with blood. After seeing Kyle and Tom amongst the bodies, I woke up in a sweat, seeing it's 7:35 AM when I checked the time.

I didn't want to go back to sleep, so I got out of bed and grabbed some clothes to get dressed with, but I wasn't expecting what was underneath my shirt when putting on deodorant. There on my chest, stretching from beneath my shoulders to my hips, was a large purple X. I hesitantly touched it, my hand quaking in fear, it didn't sting nor did it bleed, but it scared me. Just then, a notification from my phone rings out, it's Tom, and he's sent some kind of link to a news article. I took a look at what he sent, desperate for anything to get my mind off what's on my skin, only for the news to scare me even more.

Apparently, more murders having been happening last night, most if not all of them being teachers and students from my college. The news said about how the killer took them all in gruesome ways, like snapping their necks while twisting most bones in their body, or decapitating a teacher and mangling up her body to make it look like a Halloween prop, or just beating her to death with a heavy object, and talking about how everyone in the vicinity needs to stay indoors. I couldn't handle this and burst out my dorm, running down the stairs before exiting the building. I didn't care where I'm running to, I just need to get away from the dorms for now.

(Kyle POV)

Me and the rest of our little fun gang were chilling down in the lounge when we see (Y/N) running straight out of the dorms, his face covered in an expression of fear. All of us were silent for a few seconds until Tom stood up before giving chase, causing us to call out to him.

Roger: What are you doing Tom!?

Tom: To get (Y/N) and bring him back! Can you guys find anything to calm him down?

Vicky: On it!

After that, we all split up in search of anything relaxing in (Y/N)'s eyes, with Mike, Roger, and Vicky going to their rooms while I went to his room. When I entered, there was nothing out of place, aside from the pyjamas laying on the floor, but Roger also leaves them there as well. I checked around for anything useful until my eyes drifted to his laptop, seeing the Sonic fangame he has on his desktop. I couldn't help but inch towards it and click on the game, eager to play on it. I know he's going through something, but maybe there's something in this game that could give me an answer, after all, these moments started happening around the same time he got the game.

After waiting for the game to start up, some save files appeared and I clicked on a newer one, I didn't want to ruin anything (Y/N) might've done on his save file. The screen faded to black as an unnerving voice spoke up.

"You aren't my usual player, who are you and what did you do to him?"

Kyle: H-h-he just ran out the room and we're tr-trying to find a way to calm him down.

"A interesting excuse, but why are you trying to play our game?"

Kyle: I figured their could be some answers to why he's acting odd in the game, since everything started going wrong on the day he got the game.
