Insanity At Raspy Hill (Insane! Host x Child!/Teen! Reader)

Other Side

Y/N POV: I was worried that Host wouldn't be nice. Maybe he would be like mommy and daddy... Would he be abusive? I'm scared...

"H-hello? Y/N? Did Host scare you?" I yelped and backed away from him. I didn't want to get abused again. Not again... Not again...

"NOT AGAIN!" I screamed without knowing. Host growled and covered his ears. He shook his head crazily. He looked like he was having a... What did mommy call it... A seizure? Yeah, I think that's what it was... I hugged my knees to my chest in the corner of the room.

Host finally stopped shaking and glared in my direction... How did he see me? I whimpered as he crawled towards me on all fours. I held my hands out as he neared me, trying to block myself in case he was going to do something to me. I felt a waterfall of tears run down my face as he neared my tiny body. He grabbed my arms gently, pulling them away from my face. I whimpered again. I peaked carefully through my eyes, seeing that Host had a gentle look on his face.

"What happened to her?" He seemed to be asking himself. I just looked away, ashamed of who I was and my stupid life. Host leaned in close to me, I tried to pull away, but his grip on my arms wouldn't let me. It didn't hurt, but it was tight enough to keep me in place. I just kept looking down.

"I ran away." Was all I simply said, trying to evade the question as much as I could.

"Why?" I just let a few more tears fall, not ready to answer. The Host got close to me, and... Sniffed me???? I just flinched, afraid that this was some sort of trick like my parents always pulled on me. "She's scared...?" Host talked to himself again, but loud enough for me to hear. How could he smell fear? Were these people even human?

"They hurt me..." I cried a little louder, not trying to stop the tears as I knew that it wouldn't work anymore. Host let go of me, picking my small frame off of the ground. I flinched again, what would he do?

"How?" Was all he asked quietly. I looked away.

"They used a belt... And kicked me... And slapped me... For no reason." I let the tears drip faster and in larger amounts. All of a sudden, I felt myself pulled up against Host's body. I was shocked, why was somebody showing me affection? That never happened...

"Host is sorry..." Was all he could get out... It seemed that he was just as awkward as I was. I just nodded and slowly hugged onto him. Host rested his chin on my head. I just cried some more at the realization that I've never been hugged like this in my life. Host quickly pulled away. "Did Host do something wrong?" I just shook my head.

"It's alright... I just haven't been hugged in a good way in my life..." Host looked confused.

"What's a bad hug?"

"When somebody hugs too tight and you can't breath."

Host's POV: Why was this kid abused like this? Host knew what she meant when she said that a bad hug was when you couldn't breath. Her parents choked her? Host wasn't going to tell her what that was, she would be even more scared. Host was angry. Why would they hurt a kid?!

"Why are you growling Mr. Host? D-did I do s-something wrong?" Host didn't realize that he was growling.

"Host is just mad that your parents treated you like that. You didn't do anything. No matter how much your parents made it seem like it." She just looked down and nodded.

"I think I understand." She said weakly. Host just cocked his head to the side. Was she afraid of Host?

"You don't have to be afraid of Host..." Host felt his sanity slipping once again. Not again... Host put her down on the ground as quickly and carefully as he could. Host sat in the corner, groaned, and grabbed his head. Host growled a bit, scaring Y/N.

   "Host is sorry!" Host groaned before shaking furiously. Poor Y/N looked shocked and sat in another corner, crying softly. Finally, the other side of Host took over, looking for the new play thing...

Y/N POV: Why was Host scaring me like that? This wasn't funny. I don't think he's faking, I thought to myself. I tried to hide in the far corner of the room as much as I could so maybe I would be lucky that he might not find me. 

   "Where are you?!" Host's voice called, trying to find me. He sounded like a totally different person, like his voice was super raspy and dead sounding. He kept checking around the room, eyes finally landing onto me. His smile turned sick and twisted. 

   "Don't hurt me!!!" I cried, putting my hands in front of my face again. I felt his hands grab me tightly, this time it really hurt. 

   "Don't worry! Host won't kill you yet! He has to try to play with you first!" Host exclaimed loudly. I cried out as I felt his nails dig into my arms. One of his hands flew to my mouth as Host cackled loudly. "Host doesn't like the loud ones!!! You might want to learn to be quiet!" I just nodded, as I thought disobeying would be bad.

   "GOOD! Now, how about we play some games?!" I just nodded again, whimpering a tiny bit as I did. "Awe! Don't be afraid! Host doesn't like to kill the play things first! Host must try to get the most fun out of them first." Host set me down on the ground before... Going to the door?

   "W-what are you d-doing?" I stuttered out. Host rounded on me.

   "SHHHH! We have to be quiet so nobody knows that we're out!" I nodded quickly, not wanting to upset him. Host messed with the lock for a couple of minutes before unlocking and opening the huge door. 

   "Are... W-we supposed to b-be outside?" I stuttered a little bit more. Host turned to me, an evil grin on his face.

   "No. That's what makes this fun!" Host smirked as I looked scared. All of a sudden, Host pulled out a huge knife from his trench coat, with an evil glint on his face.

   "W-what are you g-gonna do with that k-knife?" I was terrified. Host grinned.

   "We're gonna play hide and seek. Better start running!" I did.
