"What's 1000-7? She asks, holding the bloodied pliers to my face
"993 right..." I had no more energy to put behind those words
"Keep going hun" She rips off a finger
"986" She kept ripping off fingers
"979...972...965...958" I attempt to keep going but she starts to rip out my teeth as well
"Hup, well that's all for today, I'll be back once your all healed up. Oh, and by the way" She leans into my right ear "That larva is of the danger beast variety, and when it smells blood it begins to writhe and burry itself into it's surroundings, have fun with that" She giggles and walked out the door about 13 meters away. I try to scream but I can't, I try to move but I can't, what was that voice a while ago?, was someone else here? So many questions ran through my head, but then the numbers came
951...
944...
937...
930...
923...
916...

-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7.....
That's all my mind could come up with, minus 7. It's all I knew and all I wanted to know. Hello again
"Go away" was all I had energy to say
Now, is that any way to treat a friend?
"I don't even know if you're real, you definitely aren't Timothy"
That may be true, but I can assure you, I am a previous user of that metallic ball
"Good to know, now go away" Why was she still here?
Do you care for Esdeath?, or Chelsea?
"Both very much, I am their protector, why do you ask?"
Because, they're not going to come for you
"Why do you say that?" I say weakly
Mainly because they won't be able to find you out here, you need to get out of here if you want to see them again
"Well too bad I can't get out" I look around "I don't even know where to start if I did"
Get mad, I've heard you're good at that
"I've tried, nothing works"
Think of the facility
"I've tried, not even my family is making me mad anymore...I just feel empty"
Think of your friends being taken away from you
"By who?, no one touches Esdy and Lolipop!" I look at the blank wall "Tell me, what will happen?" I say through gritting teeth
Budo will kill Esdeath and Chelsea will most likely off herself
"No, no they wouldn't!" I yell as tears bead at the ridges of my eyes
Usually you'd be right, but they will pronounce you dead and fall into depression
"No, stop it!, make it stop!" I thrash around in the chair, now sobbing
Let me show you
I look around at a new space, Esdeath's bedroom to be exact. I walk around and see our bed, occupied by Budo and her.
"He's gone, just let me in" Budo pressures Esdy into something, I'm not sure what
"No, just because he's gone doesn't mean there's a place to be taken" She says sternly
"Well, I'll leave you alone then"
"Thank y-" I see metal protrude from her stomach
"Esdy!" I yell, but they cannot hear me
"If I can't have you now, I'll have your corpse"
I hear as everything goes black
"You sick bastard!, Why did you show me that!?" I yell at the black figure
That's what will happen to her, don't you want to protect her?
"Yes!, but I can't..."
Why's that?
"I can't escape, there's no way without my Imperial Arm" I look down "I'm useless without it"
Lets take a look-see at Chelsea, shall we
Before I can respond I see Lolipop in the floor, covered in blood and her arms opened
"Make it stop! Maketstopmakeitstop MAKE IT STOP!" I yell into the image "please..."
You can stop this, just give in
"Give in to what?" I ask the figure
Your insanity, just let go of yourself and let the madness take over
"N-no!, then the voices will come back" I remember what it was like in the facility "I don't want to hear their screams anymore"
Then I guess all of them will die
"Fine...I'll try"

Timeskip 2 Days

Creak!
I hear a metal door open in front of me
"It's that time!" I hear the familiar voice say
"Go away" I look up at her "I really do t want to have to kill you" I was ready, the voices were screaming at me to kill her and I was ready to oblige.
"Getting brave are we?" She walls up to my ear and whispers "Sorry, but you can't do shit now"
"That is where your wrong" I look at her with grey, dead eyes "I can"
"I use a tendril from my foot to dig into the ground and hit her away
"How!"
"The voices, they won't stop, screaming at me from within my own skull" I look over at her "can you hear them?"
"How much did I screw you up?"
"Too much, you drove me to give in to my own mind"
"Looks like I'm just going to kill you then, too bad our fun couldn't last"
"Can you see them?" I look around "Butterflies, all around us, I know they aren't real but I can see them" I turn my attention to her "Can you?"
"You really are too far gone aren't you?"
"No, I am ahead of the learning curve" I walk forward "Would you like to hear a story?" I stop about 1/2 a meter form her. She gets up and tries to stab me
"It is not polite to attack someone without answering them" I grab her blade "And I doubt you can hurt me more then the men in white masks"
"No!, I don't give a damn about your story!" She slashes at me
"Too bad, I'm going to tell you anyway" I say in a monotone voice "It all started with my father coming home one fall evening"
"I don't care!" She tries throwing knives
"It's not nice to interrupt the beginning of the story" I yank out the knives "And I don't know what these are supposed to do"
"How are you not de-"
"BE QUIET!" I yell in Timothy's voice "now I'm with the story, when he came home he was drunken beyond belief. I went to greet him but he hit me away. I believe it was that moment in which his power complex formed above me, because from this point on he started to beat me when my mother was out of the house. After a while he got confident and started doing only when she was out of the room, she noticed not too long after. But she wasn't mad at all, seeing me on the floor gave her the same complex as my father. From that point forward I was beaten daily and even my extended family got slightly involved. although I never knew why any of this happened I went along and let it run its course. Until one day when I decided to put my foot down. At age 7 I took the knife away from my mother while she was cutting me and stabbed her. It felt amazing having finally hurt her as she had myself. Then my father walked in, drunken once more and with a liquor bottle he attacked me, I stabbed him in the back. When the authorities arrived I heard someone egging me on, encouraging me to kill them. So I did. I killed every last officer they threw at me. I'll spare you the rest because not only do I want you dead I want to see how you like this larva in your ear." I take out the writhing larva and shove it into her ear
"Ahhh, what the hell!" She screamed, it was strangely satisfying hearing real screams. After listening for a few seconds to the melody of pain I tear her legs off and toss them to the side
"It hurts!, ahh goddamnit!" She starts trying to stand in her stumps, this was quite entertaining.
"Now, I'm not going to kill you, I am leaving you to your pain, the voices say to do so" I say deadpan and walk away
"You...you will pay for this" I hear from behind
"No, I won't" I say and slam the metal door behind me.

Author's note:
Holy shit, I am so sorry about the late update. I've just become quite addicted to Rainbow Six Siege and Destiny 2 recently. There are obviously some personal stuff that also aided in my hiatus but I'm not going to pour my heart to Wattpad, it would seem pretentious. As always if you have a suggestion for this story or even a new one please feel obligated to comment; all comments are read and all ideas are considered. Until next time.
