Fighting for you (Teacher!Vincent X Student!Reader X Teacher!Richard)

Chapter 11 - Save yourself, i'll hold them back

"Hey miss.. miss?"

A childish voice echoed in the void, a black space without any perimeter.
Two eyes opened dispelling that world of darkness to reveal a new one, bright and calm, made of all light.

"Hey miss, you awake. You slept so long"

The childish voice was followed by a giggle and soon an ethereal figure walked out this intense light, a kid whose deep blue eyes seemed the only thing to be seen clearly in his body made of brightness and air.
For all you could deduce, he was about 8-9 years old.
His only recognizable fatures were the ones of a once happy child that now just hid sadness.

"Me and my sister thought you were dead, glad you're not"

He sat down on the white floor, if it can be called like this.

"You know why you're here? ...Right, how can you? First, my name is Timothy. You're here because you're unconscious and we brought you in this safe place to rest"

Despite him talking, his lips didn't move and now curved up in a light smile which disappeared immediately.

"Do you remember what happened? Yes. The bad man is out here.. He is waiting for you.
What? Your fault? It is not, it is that bad man's fault for everything, don't blame yourself.
He did so many horrible things, he took advantage and dragged our dad on his steps. I know what they did in that place with the dancing robots, i saw them until..."

He stopped while looking down

"I tried to save my sister Violet but i couldn't, my dad wasn't himself anymore, the bad man told him what to do"

He looked up again with pain in his smile while big tears formed up on the edge of his eyes unwilling to roll down.

"But after all, i forgive him, he is still my dad and i know he didn't really want to hurt us. The mom knew he was and still is a good man, she just couldn't take care of him anymore"

Timothy stood up from the inexistent floor to look like he was floating. He looked around noticing the light was becoming stronger

"But you can. Please, save him. I know you can do it. Do what mom didn't. That's all we ask you, do it and set us free so you let us go.
Quick, there's no time... the rope is loosened enough, save yourself"

The light grew stronger by the moment and Timothy's figure was being swallowed in it, only his eyes were visible

"Save us, save my dad, be careful

...stay alive... stay alive for me

Now wake up... (Y/N)

Wake up

Wake up...

it seemed a ghostly echo that flew around the surrounding space and in the hollow one of your head.
Everything was so surreal and dizzy. You were stunned by the drug's effect.

What happened? Was that a hallucinations? But most important: where were you?

Despite the fear of discovering what was going on, you opened your eyes slowly and by your surprise there wasn't light but darkness surrounding you.
The only thing that could give you a hint was a window where the moonlight entered from, lighting up dimly the space which revealed to be a bedroom.
Infact your body realized to be laying more or less comfortably on a bed but that didn't seem to you Vincent's room neither yours, so getting away as soon as possible was the best thing to do.
Yell for help? Not a good idea but even if you wanted to, you couldn't. Not a single word came out your lips, it was like the vocal chords were tired.
Move a single arm seemed impossible, even gather all your forces was hard but something was holding you down.

You tried and tried but your wrists seemed blocked; a small effort let you tilt your head to see that they were tied up to the bed.
Despite that you kept on wiggling the wrists until the rope started loosening around them.

That's it, a little bit more and you were free, a little more effort and ignore the headache.. another strong tug, another one.. almost there and...

With a last violent yank you could free your right arm but your heart stopped hearing the door creaking sound, freezing you in place.

"What the fuck?!"

The darkness disappeared as soon as the light switch was clicked showing Richard at the door with an upset look which switched showing the face of his sick insanity.

"Why, well awake (Y/N). Are you trying to leave yet? It is very impolite for guests to leave like this"

Referring to the free wrist, he approached to tie it up but before you could move, he already pinned you down. That man seemed endowed of a high speed

"No, no, no (Y/N), y'aint leaving me this time. You know how much it took me to get to you? You can't even imagine my effort to bring you here and all"

Just now you realized that his shirt and pants were covered in dried blood.
The eyes widened at that sight and tears started forming in them at the thought that could be Vincent's.

"Aww no cry baby. I bet you won't after knowing what i have for you"

He said humming pulling out the back pocket of his pants a pocket knife and a rag

"Don't worry about the knife, you'll know soon what it will be for, but now let's take care of this"

Richard smirked widely and used the rag to cover your mouth, you tried to scream but nothing, all you could do was whine and whimper, no sound came out.

"Just in case you want to scream, not like someone can hear you, but now.."

He unbuttoned his shirt, taking it off to leave it on the floor

"Let's play a little, shall we?"
