Chapter 12 ~ Erik Route 1 ~ Real nightmares

((Skippable if you are not into Erik, can also be read as common route))

The first week of school did not really have incidents other than the one in the cafeteria. Amazingly Rindou and her crowd started to eat at tables near where Ronfaure and I ate with the rest of her circle of friends, even keeping others at a distance if they had intentions of bothering us. In the end I did not get to take the gym classes however since Waltz kept asking for me at those times. I was not sure why, he called it student and mentor bonding time but I could not help but feel there was something else to it. The week was over quickly. It was friday now and dinner had just ended. Since I still felt energetic I cleaned everything up by myself, practically having to beg the boys to let me but I kept insisting since all of them worked very hard and I was convinced they deserved some time off.

When I was almost done the same sensation of before came over me which I had experienced already a couple of times the past several weeks; as if someone was watching me.

What followed next however was new. I heard a voice. One of a child and I could hear it singing. It was coming from the other room. Was it one of Matthew's toys? They tended to have a life of their own after all and I recalled he was experimenting making Halloween themed ones.

''Tick tock goes the clock. The Demonlord he owns you. 

Drip drop does your blood. Even if you run from what is true''

The tune sounded as a nursery rhyme but the word Demonlord was troubling. I opened the door from the kitchen to the dining room and noticed that the lights were off. I was certain that they were on when I came here which was after the boys had left. I blinked a few times realising that the room looked different too. No. It had just started to change slowly when I looked away and back my eyes following a moving shadow. Before I realised it the sky was red and it was cold. Despite I did not recognize the surroundings I felt where I was. The Demonlord's castle. My hands seemed cut up and were chained. Around my neck were chains too and I was wearing rags. Where scars I had were open wounds that dripped blood on the floor.

''N-no... I should not be here... how did I get here...'' I started to panic and run. I did not see anyone meaning hopefully nobody else saw me in return. When hearing voices in rooms I would go through doors where no sounds came from. It resulted me to go deeper and deeper into the castle which I realised until the moment I entered the dungeon. Cells with various women chained in cells beaten and broken and crying. None seemed to acknowledge my presence however.

I could see a shadow moving again in the corner of my eye followed by another giggle and song.

''Drip drop down goes the blood. The demonlords whip cracks in the air

Drip drop down flows the blood. I scream but there is nobody there.''

The voice echoed away with more childlike laughter and I started to follow it further into the dungeons. I kept walking past the cells but stopped horrified by a new sight. It were the boys in a cell who all seemed to have endured severe punishment. They were put in one cell but in the one next to them someone was lying on the floor. I recognised her as Diana. Her skin however was ashen pale and if it had not been for her breathing I would be sure she was dead.  My trail of thought was broken after hearing a familiar voice. ''[___] snap out of it. This is not you. Please!'' it was Sam whose hands were clenched around the metal bars of his cell. His throat was dry, I could hear it from his voice and I tried to speak but no sound came out of my mouth.

''She does not hear you. It is your father's doing. He controls her.'' It was Diana who spoke and I saw her getting on her feet, barely. Why did I not release them from their cages. Why could I not walk anymore?
