Y/N POV:

The Forrest surrounding you had a humid, earthy smell and you woke up wrapped around his arm but he was cold to the touch.

Something is wrong.

You placed your head anxiously on his chest, it was rising and falling haltingly and he was struggling to breathe well. His heartbeats were slow and unstable.

"Alastor, can you hear me?" You shook him gently.

He didn't move or even make a single sound.

"A-Alastor?" Your voice cracked.

Your body felt jittery and compact from the thoughts that filled your mind.

Is he going to be okay?
What if he leaves me?
What am I going to do?

"No."

I'm not going to let that happen.

I'm going to find something to help us, to save you.

You cupped your hand round the side of his face and knelt down, kissing Alastor softly on his forehead.

"I'll be back soon, my love" You whispered in his ear.

If I just follow the river it will eventually lead me somewhere.

As you walked away from Alastor you scraped some of the trees to mark your way back.

~time skip~

It felt like you have been walking for hours, your appearance was raggedy and you were covered in ashes, blood and all sorts of muck. Your feet hurt immensely since you still had shattered glass and small pieces of the woodland ground embedded in them, every step you took agonized.

~time skip~

Your eyes widened when you heard a distant sound of people chatting and mechanical spluttering. You saw a man leaning against a car smoking a cigar, taking to what you assumed to be his brother or friend.

You hid behind a tree, listening in on their conversation.

"Yeah the insane asylum burned down, I assume everyone has died...to be honest good riddance. The 'people' in there were mad, I don't think you could even call them people that haha" The man chuckled and took a long puff.

"Didn't the radio host get locked up there? I listened In on the interview and he was a serial killer and ... a cannibal, I hope he suffered a painful death. How can you just eat people, that man was messed up in the head. I always thought he was strange, someone that looks like him working as a radio host?! It's laughable!" The other exclaimed and snickered.

The fuck? You racist piece of shit.

"Did you know I used to go to school with the fellow, kinda felt bad since he was picked on a lot. But I couldn't care less now..."

A twig snapped under your heel when you tried to get closer to them. Everything went silent for a few seconds and then they continued their conversation.

"...Heard he had a partner too, as mad as him. How he managed to get a bitch is beyond me"

What did you just call me?!
How do I kill these people?
Distract them?
