Trapped (Alastor x reader) (Slow Updates)

40: Snap

I would like to apologise to everyone with this chapter, it's going to look all over the place because the lack of sleep has finally caught up to Echo to the point where things are going A to C to F to L
HOWEVER! I do plan to have the next chapter, in Alastor's POV, to help summarise it all very nicely and a lot more neater, so please bare with me until then and no hate please ^^

TRIGGER WARNING! Death threats, depressive thoughts, and insults for people with disabilities

(Past)

"What exactly do you guys do when I'm at work? I know I said I'd stay out of your business, but I'm finding it really strange that nothing seems out of place, or the fact that my TV isn't turned on"

You really did try to stay out of their business, but just seeing them sit on the sofa for days on end after finding the solution to their trapped issue was starting to wear you down. Well, aside from shark face anyway.

"You mean besides swimming and watching TV?" Vaggie asked sarcastically "Charlie tries to get them to try out some... activities from back home, and before you ask, no, they are not violent nor require loud noise"

You let out a sigh of relief "I don't mind a little noise just so long as they are merely disagreements, but, thank you"

Vaggie looks at you and narrows her eyes a little "I still find it strange that you're using manners and being nice to us, especially with, everything that's happened"

"I was raised with manners and to be respectful to others, as long as you're respectful to me I will give you the same amount back"

"That's completely fine" Charlie pipes up "you are such a good person Y/n, I'm sure you'll go to heaven when it's your time"

Yeah, you highly doubted that. You knew that you were going straight to Hell with the lot of them. But for now, you were willing to let Charlie live in her delusions of childhood stories.

It would make her disappointment all the better.

(Present)

"For someone who wants to die before I ever showed up, you seem very stubborn on staying alive"

You don't say anything as you sit in a bath filled with freezing cold water with ice cubes in it like you were in an asylum, teeth chattering and your limbs going blue, black, and numb from the temperature, chains wrapped around your wrists and ankles like a prisoner and keeping you stuck in the bath to prevent you from getting out. The, thing, decided that it just wanted to 'talk' with you for now. You could only imagine what it wanted to do once creativity set in.

"Not to mention the fact that you are acting the complete opposite to how I've been messing with your head"

That's because you have nothing left to live for, and it wasn't the first time someone had mind f*cked with you.

You just wish you could understand why this was happening now and not back then.

"I thought I made it quite clear when I first introduced myself to you, dear" he states in a mocking tone "while I can admire another killer's abilities, I do so despise those who would kill those of fairer means, especially when its a mother involved"

You feel your voice finally come out since this all started, even if it was weak "I never wanted to kill her, it was an accident and I am paying for my punishment"

It was a miracle you could get anything out of your mouth with how cold you felt.

"Not much of a punishment when you're still acting the same as usual"
