Nellies PoV

When I left y/n in the cellar alone with that man, I assumed at one point that he may hurt her after regaining consciousness, that's why I decided to stay by the door and wait for her.

I left a tiny gap open by the door, which allowed me to hear everything. Mainly the screaming of the man and y/n's. I thought maybe it was because maybe the man had somehow grabbed her, but that thought immediately changed when I peeked my head through the gap of the door and saw him tied up, bloody and broken, with y/n standing in front of him holding a bloody hammer.

I gasp at the sight and turn away, facing the stairs instead. I know she didn't want me to see her, and I can understand why now. I never expected that, a few broken bones yes, but not that. Jesus....

All of a sudden, Sweeney is at the top of the stairs staring down towards me, he's been wanting to come down for a while and I've forced him to stay up. Though I doubt he's going to listen anymore, as he's coming down the stairs, rather quickly.

"What are you doing Mr T, you can't be seen" I rush out in a whisper. Y/n doesn't want him to know just yet and if she's sees him now, god knows how she'll react.
"And why's that? i don't understand why she wont tell me" he replies.
"Neither do I, but for now I'm respecting her wishes" I try my best to stay quiet in case she may hear us. Then again.....it is rather quiet. Before I could hear everything, but now. I hear nothing.
"Sh listen" I whisper to Sweeney. He leans towards the door as well as I do and we both look at each other with confused looks.

It's gone completely silent in there and I fear the worst. As I think, Sweeney does as-well and pushes me side, forcing the door open.
"Mr t!" I hiss out, panicking that y/n is going to find me and Mr T watching her.
When I barge in behind him, I find Mr T just standing still facing forwards. Confused by this, I walk around him to find y/n blacked out on the floor next to the man she brought here.

As I walk closer, I get a good look at the damage she's done. His face is completely destroyed, leaving nothing but skin, blood and bone, with what seems to be parts of his brain laying around.

I want to throw up at the mere sight, but I rush over to y/n to see if she's okay. She has no injuries, but her face is flushed and there's wetness across her cheeks. She been crying. And I guess she blacked out afterwards; from the shock, probably.

"She's okay.....just sleeping" I sigh, looking up to Mr Todd, who's looking at the corpse. His face is unreadable, i honestly can't tell of what he makes of this. But now he knows. Well, sort off....

"Mr T" I call out, and he finally looks over at me then at y/n. Without warning, he comes over and lifts her up into his arms in a bridal way. Her heads rests on his shoulders and she doesn't even stir, she's flat out. Poor thing.

"Take her on up. I'll.....clean this up" i say, and he nods while staring down at her face.
"What of the bodies? We still have Pirelli" he states and i wave him off.
"Tomorrow. For now, just get her to bed, we can talk in the morning" I turn and grab ahold of the man's chair and begin to drag his aside, while Mr T carries y/n away.

Sweeney's POV

Y/n's head fits perfectly on my shoulder as she sleeps, I'm surprised she hasn't woken up, considering how I'm carrying her. Then again, I guess after what happened in that cellar possibly exhausted her.

I could hear noises, but not clear enough to know exactly what was happening, due to Mrs Lovett forcing me away. I don't understand why she wont tell me anything, she knows of me, just not the part where I seek revenge on the same people as her, I think.

Mrs Lovett knows of her though, but she has claimed not to know details of her entire past, so I'm guessing she's not wanting to open up completely just yet. Which I respect.
