Forget [Fem! Red Leader X Reader]

Åpne Øynene Dine

(Your POV)
The boat was so full that only a sliver of it could be seen above the waves. It was the only thing that was keeping the pitch black water out.

An unsettlingly familiar clap of thunder sounded in the distance. Oh no.

You hugged your knees in hope of the noise being in your head. You felt a creaking. It wasn't in my head. Everyone stood up. Including Ell.

Sighing quietly, you followed the action. Lightning flashed and and the eruption of chaos began. You tried to avoid it, but Ell grabbed you. Was she going to throw me over the side?

"Make it count, Y/N." Ell whispered in your ear. She threw you over the right side.

You attempted to grab her arm and it failed. You sank into the freezing black ocean. You opened your digital eyes to see Ell in the water nearby. You sighed in relief knowing that she jumped over the side, getting water inside of your lungs. You felt yourself fade into a bright light.

(Tori's POV)
I was sitting in a spinning stool when I heard a high pitched beeping. I woke up and saw Y/N, rubbing her head. She's alive!

"Agh ... where's Ell?" She muttered, shaking her head and looking around. I was confused. Ell was there?

I pulled her into a hug. "Why did you do that? Are you okay?" I asked.

"Alright, alright. Let go of me you big baby." She was acting more comfortable around me; a bit like old times. "Do you want me to explain or not?"

"Please," I pleaded.

"Well, I was in some kind of lifeboat that floated in a black ocean. The boat would often get crowded, so when a storm came, they would fight and throw each other off the sides. That's how I escaped. Ell threw me off." She teared up, probably recalling something that Ell said or stuff like that. "If the captain turned around and pointed at somebody with a smile, that means they were going to die. Then they would be tossed over the left side and die." Y/N looked away for a moment, then wiped her face and continued speaking. "If she looked at you with an angry glare, you would be thrown off the right side of the boat and go back to the waking world. You survived."

I was surprised. Was that the place where people in comas or deep sleep stages go if they can't wake up? According to Y/N, it sounded rough.

"Do you think that you can try walking again?" I tilted my head. She seemed to be thinking about it, but then she let out a small yelp and held her head in her hands. I was confused for a moment before I realized she probably has a headache.

"I'm taking that as a no. You should lay down, sitting up isn't going to help." I recalled what my ma would tell me when I had a headache. She nodded and followed my instructions.

I turned around, still on the stool, and wheeled my way over to a medicine cabinet. Taking out some kind of pain-reliever pills, I slid over to Y/N.

"Take these."

(Henry's POV)
Screaming, I staggered back, holding my hands over my eye. I kept trying to wipe the blood away, but more blood just kept coming in large amounts.

"Calm down you idiota." She approached me with a roll of white bandages in her hand. I stepped back, but she sat me down as if we were old friends and began to wrap the bandages around my eye socket.

I relaxed my shoulders and arms, then opened my eyes. Green leader was kneeling in front of me and smiling. I felt for my eye and only found rough bandages.

"Oh, by the way, I'm keeping your eye. I've never seen a color like that before." Green leader laughed in an unsettling manner. "Consider yourself lucky to have violet eyes. Especially with ginger hair, too. You're a rare one."

I wasn't sure how to react to her comment. I just laughed awkwardly and nodded. Her eye narrowed profusely at my response. So much that it was barely a sliver of green.

"Anyway, back to camp. But get your things together; I'm rearranging tents." Green leader stood up and disappeared into the tall trees.

I bit shaken, I sat there in the eerie silence.

(Your POV)
The pain was lessening as the pills were dissolving into your bloodstream. You read the bottle, just to make sure they weren't sedatives and Tori was trying to kill you. Just for the record, You didn't want a fate that could've played out for Heather McNamara.

Although Tori has helped you and saved you countless times, it was hard not to feel suspicious of her.

I'm just paranoid; I've been getting hurt so many times and that made it hard to trust anyone at all.

You heard a knock on the whitish door. "Come in." You called as the old entryway creaked open to reveal Paula.

"How's your head?" She asked, approaching the bedside.

"It doesn't hurt anymore." You responded, making a so-so motion with your hands.

"That's good. Do you think you'll be able to practice walking tomorrow?" Paula inquired.

You nodded. "I have one question. Where's Thorn?"

"He should be in your room. He's been really sad lately. I think he misses you a lot." Paula's dark brown eyes softened. "Would you like me to get him for you? He definitely would want to see you."

"Thank you. Can you get him?" You asked, longing to see your son's face. Paula turned around to do as you asked. "Wait."

Paula looked at you. "Yes?"

"How long was I out?"

The long-haired woman hesitated. She opened her mouth to say something, then closed it again as if to reform her words. She sighed. "Two months."
