Ashera's Game

|+| The End? |+|

Peter's head rang with Y/N as he felt desire to kill this woman. He got off the floor and lunged towards Ashera, Causing her to fall back and drop the knife. Peter forcefully pinned her down before brutally punching her in the face over and over. Ashera kicked Peter off as she licked her bloody lip. Peter slid back and got up before she could crawl to the knife, Ashera's hand reached out and tried to reach for the knife but was stopped by Peter as he gripped her ankle and dragged her back.

Peter: "I WON'T LET YOU HURT ME OR Y/N, YOU DON'T DESERVE TO BE HERE!! YOUR NOTHING!! YOU DON'T HAVE A PURPOSE!!"

Ashera laughed hysterically as she tried to get Peter off her, Peter held down Ashera as he wanted to claw that ugly smug smile on her face... He held her neck with both of his hands as he sat on her stomach to keep her in place. Ashera tried to breath as his grip was tight around her neck... Ashera looked around to get him off as she was hopeless... Ashera's eyes felt heavy as it went dark around her. Ashera tried to speak as she was being strangled...

Ashera: "You... W-Won't... Be... Able... To... See..."

Peter: "See who..."

Ashera: "Th... The... Y/N..."

Peter: "They're safe at home..."

Ashera: "In... Living... Room..."

Peter's grip loosened as he slowly turned behind him to think Y/N would be standing there. Ashera pushed him off her as she grabbed the knife and held it tight as Peter chuckled... His low husky intimidating tone as he glanced at Ashera's terrified form.

Peter: "Are you scared now?"

Ashera: "Very much..."

Peter: "You said everything would go back to normal... If I apologized which i did."

Ashera: "Just let me out of your house... And-"

Peter lunged forward to Ashera to try to attack her again. Ashera kicked his shoulder as he fell back and held his wounded shoulder as tears formed in his eyes. The pain hurt in his shoulder as he grits his teeth. Ashera rose a brow as she tilted her head. To realize his weakness now...

Ashera took this as an advantage as she smiled and stepped forward as she had hid the knife in her hoodie sleeve... Ashera smiled innocently as she spoke in her soft tone to relax Peter...

Ashera: "Hey Peter... Why don't we stop fighting... A hug would help that muscle and it should keep your body relaxed. Just trust me and everything will be okay..."

Peter didn't like the tone in her voice as he knew she was hiding something among her sweet innocent smile. He remained still as Ashera took another step closer... Closing in the distance between the two as she wrapped her arms around him. Peter tried to not push her away as he disliked being hugged by Ashera especially... He sighed and wrapped his arms around her for a moment before his eyes widened by a sharp pain in his back... Ashera held him tight as she held the knife deep on his back... Peter noticed a pair of scissors laying on the bed as he slowly grabbed them and whispered in her ear...

Peter: "This seems funny to you... But who's going to be laughing once you experience it..."

Ashera: "And what do you mean? You'll be dea-"

Ashera felt a deep sharp pain in her lower back as Peter stabbed the scissors in her back. Ashera gripped his shirt tightly as her eyes widened... Peter smiled as blood trailed down their backs... Soaking their clothes with their blood... Ashera's eyes teared up as she knew how everything ends...

Ashera: "Good game..."

Peter: "Good indeed..."

Ashera: "See you next time..."

Peter: "..."

Peter saw everything around him turn pixelated as it seemed to reset. Ashera looked up at Peter with tears in her eyes as she resets. Peter closed his eyes for a moment as he allowed everything to reset... Once Peter opened his eyes, He was back at his respawn point. Hiding behind a tree as Y/N sat in the park... He looked around to see everything return to day 1...

Peter: "Did... Ashera reset Y/N's game progress?.. Oh crap! this is my part to introduce myself... I should get going..." 

Peter began to walk over to the bench as he sat down and waited for Y/N to notice him. Y/N looked up to see Peter sitting next to them. He saw them flinch as he knew what he needed to say, He quickly reassured them by his introduction.

Peter: "Woah, Hey! Take it easy.. It's just me."

Y/N seemed to calm down a bit but was still a bit skeptical... As Peter continued.

Peter: "You're a jumpy one aren't ya?"

Peter had to continue his role as he scooted closer to Y/N before continuing his lines.

Peter: "So... Are you waiting for a family member, or a friend? It just seems kind of odd for you to be sitting out here, All alone like this, And so far off the jogging track..."

Y/N felt a chill going down their spine as they were most likely uncomfortable with Peter's presence. As they held an arm over their chest and scoot further away. Close off the edge of the bench.

Peter: "I mean you don't look like a grounds keeper, or one of those old people feeding pigeons after doing Tai Chi."

Y/N gathered some confidence to reply to Peter after being sort of afraid and still is...

Y/N: "No, I'm just getting some alone time to myself. Things have been pretty intense lately." 

Peter scoots himself closer as he smiled shyly...

Peter: "L-Look. I know this is sudden... Very sudden, But if your free tonight... Can I have the pleasure in taking you out to dinner?"

Y/N was unsure about this... A stranger wanting to take them out?

Y/N: "What, Why?"

Peter: "Well, I'm your boyfriend. Isn't that why you're here?"

Peter sheepishly looked away as he looked back as he waited for them to choose their choice (Picking paths to different routes.) As Y/N agreed.

Y/N: "Uhm, I guess?"

Peter: "Really? That's great! I'll see you tonight at 7!.. Oh, I almost forgot. We need a place to meet up. Sorry, I know that I sound absentminded, But I'm just so excited!.. Uhm... How about that old diner downtown? It's nice and quiet so no one won't disturb us."

Y/N: "The diner downtown? Which one exactly?"

Peter: "Oh well... you know... The one you work at?"

Y/N: "Oh... Uh, Okay..."

Peter: "Great! See you tonight!"

Peter got up and left the area as he hid behind a tree and with a heavy sigh exited his mouth as he was glad he finally got a chance at a happy ending. Suddenly Ashera grabbed Peter's shoulder and pulled him down to look at her, Peter's eyes widened slightly as he tried to stay quiet.

Peter: "Ash!.."

Ashera: "Shush... I know what you did, And so did I... But still, I was an idiot... I shouldn't have done that, And now Y/N has to redo everything... Now Peter don't fuck it up."

Peter sighed and nodded as he stood straight before Ashera shoved him forward. Peter stumbled a bit as he looked over his shoulder and sighed. He knew he had to continue the game for Y/N's sake...

Ashera: "C'mon Peter, You have a damn date to finish. Should've been me instead. I would really give Y/N a good ending and not a dark and twisted one. Unlike you... I know how to not scare them without fucking terrifying them each time."

Peter: "Shut up, I know what you meant the first time."

Ashera: "Good, Now go get your roses and make Y/N your so called "To My Future murder-suicide lover."

Peter sighed as he knew Ashera was right... He began to run as he knew what was needed to be done.

Ashera stayed behind as she leaned against the tree. Arms crossed against her chest as she watched Peter disappear and onto the game's program... Hoping someday she'd get the chance to be with Y/N instead of Peter... Someday she'll get the chance. She hopes...
