AN: Ok, so this is just a bit of a teaser for the monster of a plot bunny that has invaded my brain. It is not going to be a happy fic at all, very dark and disturbing. I'm going to work away on this beast and try to finish the whole thing by the end of the week and start typing it up by the weekend. Proper warnings and disclaimers to come, rating may go up because of the level of disturbing imagery and whatnot.
Full consciousness was a rare thing as of late for him. Mostly there were just brief flashes of awareness. This time, like every other time, his screams echoed around him and the metallic sent of blood filled his nostrils.
He hurt, the pain was constantly searing through his body, when he was aware enough to realize he even had a body. He thought his eyes were open sometimes, but he could never be certain. Open or shut, there was only the darkness that had been his constant companion since whatever was happening to him began.
Finding himself fully aware of his surroundings once more, he immediately sensed something was different. There wasn't any screaming, he couldn't smell the blood and there wasn't any pain. Even though he couldn't see anything, he could feel another presence nearby. He held his breath, waiting for when this brief respite would surly end. Then a soft hand cupped his cheek, making him flinch away violently.
"Oh sweet child, you mustn't fear me. I am your salvation in all this. You shall thank me someday, little angel." A soft musical voice cooed as fingers trailed lightly over his forehead and down his temple. The touch vanished and a shiver passed through his body. The voice hummed a sad melody for a few minutes, lulling him into a relaxed state, before becoming quiet.
Then the screams, blood and pain were back, louder and more agonizing than before. A sob escaped him as he prayed for it to stop. For everything to just end.
