The Chosen One ( Jason the Toymaker X Reader )

Showdown

The puppeteer smirks, his golden smile illuminating his face. Jason grabs your arm tightly and drags you to the nearby door, a furious look staring back at you. He pushes you into the other room and you turn around to meet his gaze. You see those glowing green eyes and immediately understand why Jason wanted you out of harms way. He wanted to protect you, to save you from what was about to happen. Whatever that was.

" Do not enter this room at any cost. Do as I say! " Jason slams the door in your face and you feel the cold air from the impact rush past you. You put your ear gently to the door, hearing faint voices and occasional shouting. You look around the room for something that could perhaps help Jason. You didn't want to let the toymaker fight this alone, not after everything he has done for you. You notice one of Jason's sharp workshop tools and pick it up, the heavy weight hurting your arms. You suddenly hear clattering from the other room and panic begins to settle in. It was now or ever. You barge into the room and swing the tool at the black clad man, hitting him in the face. You breathe harshly as you meet the puppeteer 's golden eyes and hear his soft chuckles. Nervousness taking you over, knowing you shouldn't have done what you did and immediately regretting it.

" Anger.....how wonderful. You look cute when your angry" Something snaps inside you, a primal sort of instinct. The fear vanishes and anger takes over, no, your want to protect Jason took over and you swing once again at the puppeteer. A grey hand grabs the tool and stops you in your tracks. A smirk on his lips. He comes closer to you, faces nearly touching. So close you can feel his breath. You feel a tight grip on your shoulder pulling you back. You drop the tool, a loud metallic sound emanating around you as it drops to the floor.

" What are you doing?! I told you to not come in here!" You see Jason's cold eyes and soften yours.

" I want to protect you Jason. You are worth protecting " You see the toymaker smile, knowing he now had you under his spell. He picks up the tool and hands it back to you.

" Lets finish him off my doll " You smile and both face the puppeteer. Golden strings wrap around your wrists and lift you into the air. You were soon suspended above the fight. The puppeteer looks up to you, sure of his victory but that feeling was short lived as you drop the tool down to the toymaker that stood below you. Grabbing the tool Jason lunges at the grey skinned man. You look away, not wanting to know what Jason was going to do, sanity finally returning to you. You hear the sharp noise of the tool landing a blow and the sound began to ring in your ears, like a set of church bells. You had no idea what came over you before but you knew it could be disastrous and that frightened you. As Jason grabs you and helps you to the floor you feel like once again, having anything to do with the toymaker was a bad idea but it seemed to be that when he held you those thoughts melted away, leaving you vulnerable and open to his lies.
