Fantasy AU
Wishes do come true if you believe. But for you, you knew wishes...Were just wishful thinking. There is no such thing as Fairy Godmothers who would grant your every wish, unless if you count Witches. Witches did grant wishes, but at an overinflated price of either your soul or your voice.
But you still believed in them, no matter what your brain told you. You kept wishing that things would be alright and that you could achieve your dream of living a happy life. But little did you know, your brain had been right all along.
Being the daughter of a Witch, you had inherited your mother's powers. As fantastic as it sounds, there were people who despised the Witches. Perhaps it was the price that came with their selfish wishes, or perhaps there were really bad Witches who had instigated the whole 'Witch Hunt' thing. Whatever the reason, it had taken your mother from you.
Her death awoke you to the bitter reality that the world was a cruel place. When she shoved you into the bushes to hide you, you could only watch in horror as the men and women sliced off her long, beautiful hair and dragged her away to burn her on the stake. Fast forward to the present, you had run away from the village, taking the money she had stashed away to survive in another village.
Humming as you scrubbed the laundry the people gave to you to wash, you began to sing to yourself, unaware of a man watching you intently.
"Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where they strung up a man
They say who murdered three.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree."
You squeezed the soapy watery into a bucket as you hummed to yourself.
" Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out
For his love to flee.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree."
The man began to hum, harmonising with your voice as you were immersed yourself into your work. He seemed to grow more confident and emerged from the shadows as he materialized opposite you.
"Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where I told you to run,
So we'd both be free."
"Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree."
The man finished your song and you looked up in surprise, surprised that he managed to sneak up on you and that he knew the song. As much as you knew, only the people from your original village knew the song. If he knew the song, that meant...
"You knew the song! Man, I thought I was alone in this old town. You sing really nice. What's your name, my lady?" The man had silvery hair and ruby eyes. His face was alight with a knowing smile that you did not like. Wiping your face clean of emotion, you responded just as emotionlessly.
"My name..."His face looked more interested and brighter.
"Is none of your business. Unless you wish for me to do your laundry or any odd jobs." You said curtly, finishing your job and walking back to your old home.
"My name is Zen! Pleasure to meet you, Miss None-of-your-business! Your voice is really pretty!" The man chirped as you rolled your eyes,hanging the damp clothes and going about in your daily activities.
"Yeah...Well...Thanks...I guess..."You blushed at his compliments as you dusted yourself off.
This life continued for a week, with the same boy, Zen, coming over to bother you. You had to admit, Zen was extremely charming and sweet. Like a Prince Charming you often heard about.
Maybe....Your wish would come true..? Could it be that he would be your partner in the happy life you wished for? Deciding to focus on the present, you finished your morning chores while Zen sat by, watching you.
"What made you leave (Village Name) anyways....The life back there was not that bad." You commented as you began preparations for lunch.
"...You do know of the Witch Hunts, right?"Zen's voice turned quiet and serious.
"...Yes...I do know. It is why I left." You stiffened as you spreaded butter over bread.
"They took my mother from me...The hunters...Because of how I looked. They thought that it was impossible for this beautiful man to come out of an average looking woman, so...They took her." Zen laughed shakily. You nodded absentmindedly as you topped the bread and butter off with another pice of bread.
"Well...I guess I can relate...I..My friend's mother was taken as well. She was a really nice and loving person..."You paused before noticing Zen's expression turn cool, evil even.
"Zen...?" You asked as he slowly advanced towards you.
"Oh, (F/N), (F/N), (F/N)....Why on earth would you lie about your own mother?" Zen asked smoothly and darkly as your eyes widened.
"Daughter of Wisteria, the most famous and powerful Witch known to mankind...To think that her daughter would be so easy to trick and so easy to destroy~"Zen purred as you felt his larger body pin you into a wall. You began to panic as Zen tipped your chin up towards his face.
"Z-Zen?!" You could only try to avert your eyes away and squirm, but the man had you firmly under his grasp. What was going on?
"Hmm, but what do you know...She is also so cute and just so pure...."Your eyes widened as he gently tapped your lips. Zen gave a sinister chuckle as he stroked your face and pressed your soft lips with a thumb. He seemed to ignore your words and took great pleasure in squeezing you against the wall.
"Hmm...What do I do...Chief told me to destroy you completely....But I have no idea where to start..." He stared down your terrified eyes, enjoying the fear and terror reflected in your (e/c) orbs. His free hand that hovered by your head then trailed down to your sides and gently moved down your hips.
'No...My happy end...Why..? No..' You tried to stifle your sobs of despair and fear. It was not fair. You did believe that your wish would come true...Yet..Why? Why was it just so unfair? After all you had went through, you thought you could get the happiness you wished for. Broken, the growing pressure on your chin won and brought your face uncomfortably up towards Zen's face.
Whimpering, you tried to avert your eyes and tears began to escape your eyes.
"I think..." His crimson eyes seemed to turn darker as he dragged you and threw you onto your bed.
"I'll start with your mind first~"
A/N:
Welp. I tried dark. '-' Let me know what you think about this shot~ >~<
