Empty Promises (Bloody Painter x Reader) [RE-WRITTEN]

Chapter 13 - Don't Be Excited For Tomorrow

~YOUR POV~

"Just breathe (Y/N)! Breathe! Her head is poking out!" Yelled Masky, standing beside me and holding my hand.

Helen was with the doctors, trying to get that little shit out of me. I kept pushing and pushing until I felt a huge bubble of air enter my lungs. She has finally been born.

Alex, my little girl.

The doctor cut her umbilical cord and took her to clean her up.

"You did it, (Y/N)." Helen said, his voice filled with happiness.

"Yeah. I guess I did." I said between pants. I smiled as Helen gave me a quick kiss, just as the doctors came back in with Alex.

"Here you go Miss. (L/N). Your daughter." The nurse handed me my baby, as she walked out of the room.

"She's beautiful (Y/N). She looks just like you." Masky smiled, stroking her cheek lightly.

"This is our child (Y/N)." Helen said, smiling really widely.

"She she. She is going to be amazing." I smiled widely back at Helen.

4 months passed since that day, and Alex was crying. Again. You know sometimes I regret having this little shit that won't stop fucking crying like Jesus don't you have anything better to do.

"I've got her this time." I said to Helen, getting out of bed and walking into Alex's room. I picked her up and tried to calm her down. "Shhh shhh, it's okay girly, mommy's here." I lightly shake her and rock her back and forth, which thankfully calms her down for the most part.

Suddenly, I heard a loud yell coming from Masky's room.

I quickly ran to his room, Alex still in my arms. What I saw confused and scared me.

Masky dead, Helen standing over him, covered in blood.

"Helen?!" I yell at him, causing Alex to wake up and start crying again. Naturally I tried to calm her down again.

"(Y/N)? And Alex how perfect!" Helen spoke, pure insanity in his voice.

"What the hell are you doing?!" I yelled at him, still trying to calm down Alex.

"Ah you see, I had a little 'chat' with my old pal Puppeteer, and he had some very points about a lot of things. A lot of good solutions." Helen didn't sound like himself at all, yet he sounded perfectly normal.

"What...?" I asked, still very confused on what was happening.

"He was a waste of space. I don't need him. Same applies to you (Y/N)." He sounded very sly and nasty.

"What the hell are you on about Helen?!" I practically scream at Helen, Alex still crying in my arms.

"I'm going to kill you (Y/N). Just like lover boy here." Helen pointed his dripping knife down at Masky's body.

"Please don't do this! What about Alex?!" I continued yelling, tears starting to form.

"She's all I need. You see, Puppet said some very interesting things that you failed to mention. He also said that little Alex there is all I need, no one else." Helen laughed a little, scaring me and Alex.

I was fully crying by this point, Alex still in my arms. He wasn't thinking about killing her... was he? I know she is the next Seer but he wouldn't kill me so she can awaken, would he?!

"How did he know about that?!" I yelled at him.

"Because everyone knew your mother, Korbyn Jumping-Eagle. Even thought she changed her name to (L/N) after she ran away, we all knew she had a daughter. Little old (Y/N) (L/N). Why didn't you tell me you were the Seer?!" He practically screamed at me.

"Because I didn't want you taking advantage of my powers!" I screamed back.

Alex was crying really loudly now, I tried to calm her down but nothing worked.

Suddenly, Helen snatched Alex from my arms and placed her on the bed. Helen then came towards me, lifting his knife into the air.

"Please don't do this Helen!" I begged, falling onto the floor and holding my hand out to try and stop the knife.

"I need to do this (Y/N). I'll look after Alex really well I'll promise you that, but this has to be done." He slowly made his way towards me, still wielding the knife high.

"Don't be excited for tomorrow." Helen brought his knife down upon me, going straight through the middle of my heart.

"Because there will be no tomorrow."
