Hollow (Ink!Sans x Depressed!Reader)

Chapter 1 | A New Beginning

"You're not gonna speak to me?" Chara speaks up, observing how (Y/n) sits against the cage with chains on her arms and legs, nothing showing in her (e/c) eyes. Not even being set free would make her happy, she felt nothing, nothing would ever let that light shine in her eyes once again. It would take a miracle to see her smile which would almost be impossible. Being locked in a cage for at least a month made her lose total control of her emotions. Her memory keeps slipping away from her grasp everyday, barely remembering the names from her skeleton family. Barely eating anything that the boy would give her, and always say that she's fine. Hearing the negative comments he made everyday, made her go back into depression but even deeper, which made her break. The boy brainwashed her completely, making her unable to do anything and vulnerable to her. He could do anything to her and that's what he did the last week. He tied her up, and got his knife, cutting deep into her skin. She shouted for anyone but no one came, as he made decorations into the teenagers skin. Making patterns of flames, since he could see the fury that burned deep within in her soul. Although it's been gone for a while, he still wanted to hear her scream since it felt like music to their ears.

She could only shake her head, telling him no, not wanting to make him mad and receive punishment which would be unbearable pain. They could only scoff and unlock the door to the cage, seeing that she lifts her head up watching his sudden action. Standing up, abruptly, she felt the chains pull her back down letting out a groan of pain, as the boy only stands there watching with amusement in his ruby eyes. He knew if he were to unlock her, she would follow him around anywhere, obeying him. Chara walks towards her unlocking the chains, seeing that she stands up once more, rubbing where the chains on her wrists were. Both of them trudge out of the cage and see that he had nothing in store for her. Confusion wells in her head, wondering why she was taken out of her cage in the first place, only to realize one thing.

"Master..." She whispers, barely able to talk seeing that she caught his attention. He turns around with a smirk on his lips as her eyes widen in slight fear. She couldn't move as if she was frozen with fear, and could only stand there as he trudges over to her, wrapping an arm around her waist pulling her closer to him, she directs her gaze towards somewhere else, not wanting to looking into his ruby red eyes. He places a hand on her cheek lifting her head up to make her have eye contact with him, and she obeys only to see his hypnotizing eyes. Raising his hand from her cheek, he moves it to her (h/c) hair, playing with it. She doesn't do anything, but stand there observing his eyes, not looking away, as her body stays completely frozen, unable to do or say anything.

"I could kill you right now." He tells her, resting her head onto his shoulder without a thought in her mind as a slight chuckle slips past his lips, watching her completely helpless. She felt empty inside as if she was a puppet that he could play with at any time, ignoring anything else. He wants to see how much he could do with her, not caring about anything except for one thing. Someone could get in his way and ruin everything and that means a certain skeleton could restore all of her memories that he has brainwashed away. He made her fall into despair and he didn't anyone to ruin what he has accomplished. Brainwashing her is a step in his book that has been completed, and more steps are on the way for her and him.

"But I won't. Since you're part of the plan... Do you remember anything before I saved you?" He asks as he continues playing with her hair as if nothing mattered to him except for her to be in his arms, holding her tightly and secure as if she would escape if he loosen his grip. He knew that he has to be careful with his words since a certain name could trigger memories that would flood her mind and see who she really was along with him. She slightly shakes her head, as if saying that she doesn't and this action made a smile form on his lips from hearing her answer.

"I'll let you make some havoc in Underfell, but in the meantime... What do you think we should do?" He questions, only for her to shrug her shoulders, not knowing what to say. An idea comes to mind and he pulls away from the embrace, holding onto her hand, leading her back into the cage along with him. Trudging into the cage that is big enough to be a room for the both of them, he takes out a key and locks the bared door behind him as a smirk form on his lips. Slipping the key into his front pocket, he leads her to a wall with chains as a slight pang of fear wells inside of her. He doesn't let her comprehend what's happening by pushing her down to the ground with force as she lets out a gasp, sitting up, although he grasps two chains that are on the wall, screwed in tightly, as his other hand grabs ahold of one of her wrists, locking her up. Grabbing the other wrist and chain, he handcuffs her to the wall, with her back propped against it, as she sits on the floor with her (f/c) shorts ripped up in various places, along with her shirt as her hands are handcuffed above her head. Him having a view of her from this angle, made him only smile at her being helpless, vulnerable, and fragile. Seeing fear in her (e/c) eyes as she starts thrashing around, not saying a word.
