Ramshackle's Angel

75

Back at the scrap house, Xander tossed and turned in his bed as a nightmarish memory filled his head.

"Mom, please...it was an accident" a younger version of himself said to Roo, looking terrified.

She only groweled in response before she slapped the back of her hand across the side of his face, immediately giving him a black eye. He stumbled back in pain as he held his face in his hand.

"Mom, I-" he tried to speak before she grabbed the collar of his shitt and held him close to her face.

"You really think that I'm gonna listen to your pathetic excuses..." Roo started before she threw him, causing him to collide with a nearby chair.

Xander moved around in it, anxious and scared, gasping for his breath.

"And not put you in your place?" She finished as she walked closer to him as he tried to explain and calm her down.

"Mom, please, I'm sorry..." he told her, getting out of the chair and backing into a corner, instinctively grabbing his shirt to try and cover his chest.

Red, thorny vines circle around his wrists like cuffs, binding them together. Roo then grabbed him by the throat, dragged him across the room before slamming and pinning him down on a sofa, causing him to yell out in pain.

"Ow! Mom! Stop!"

She growled before she violently shoved him to the ground. He slid across the floor for a second before he finally came to a stop, gasping heavily.

"You know that you can't do anything" Roo said menacingly before she formed a thorny chain around his neck, the thorns causing him to bleed a little.

"I own you. Or have you forgotten?" She hissed.

Sniffling and whimpering, Xander slowly replied "No...."

Roo held the chain tightly as she glared at him.

"When I say "come" you say?"

"Yes, mom."

"When I say "your fucking twenty guys before lunch" you say?" She asked, leaning closer as she grabbed his shoulder.

"Yes, mom" he replied, his voice deepening.

"And if you don't want me to let someone to fuck the loving fuck out of your sweet...innocent...baby sister...what will you say?" She mocked.

"Yes, mom..." Xander told her, tears in his eyes.

Roo smiled sickly as she let him go.

"Good."

Xander immediately woke up, covered in sweat as he had trouble breathing. After a moment, he looked out his window and saw Lorelai and Ditch coming out of a portal, laughing. He sighed, happy that she was safe before he broke down crying, curling up into a ball.
