xi. blood-red

trigger warning for almost explicit torture, blood, choking, and violence (basically, I was being a sadist today)

-

Her breaths are quick, building up with the thudding in her ears. She tries to steady it, biting the inside of her cheek. But to no avail, she only tastes the tang of metal, blood.

Stopstopstopstop.

They keep going on, the ringing of their voices growing and growing to a deafening Decibel.
She clutches her ears in vain attempt, and there's something warm flowing in between her fingers and she squints then screams when she sees that it's red.

It's so loud, it's so loud, she can't hear her screams anymore, she can't tell if it's coming from her or them it just needs to stop, please, please, please.

Please.

She's choking now, why is she choking? It's blood, oh she's drowning in her own blood, oh.

There's a new gash at the side of her face and the smell is getting even worse--is she dead yet? Is that the smell of her remains? Are these her last glimpses of life before she truly succumbs?

No.

It still hurts.

Death was supposed to be a state of dreamless sleep, they said, it was supposed to be the absence of pain, wasn't it?

Wasn't it?

"Why won't it stop? Can't they see she's already dead?"

She hears a distant, frantic, loud--no, soft, no, screaming, voice from amidst the thudding and it makes the entire thing more torturous than ever.

"She's not dead," murmurs another voice...or is it the same one? Is it hers?

Is it anyone's at all?

She hears it continue in her spiral of insanity anyway,

"It's far worse."

She doesn't hear more after another sickening crunch of bone and a fortissimo of banging that causes a tremor throughout her entire being.

Even if the voices weren't real, they were still fucking right.

She'd rather die.

...so I still have no idea what this is I was just torturing another OC (oh my poor children im so sorry) but it turned out quite alright for my taste (it's one of the few that actually has a little tiny bit of my approval--ugh I'm a frickin psycho)

hope ya enjoyed this nonsense :)))
