Darkness. The black obis of unconsciousness. An escape from the torturing world. The mind a safe haven from the pain. Finn doesn't know how long he's been asleep but he doesn't want to know. All he knows is the longer he is, the longer he's safe.

"Finn..." A deep mans voice calls through the darkness. "Finn..." Finn recognizes the voice, he'd heard it somewhere before. Just then, a face pops into his mind, he instantly knows who it is. Dr. Facilier from The Princess and the Frog.

"So, Kingdom Keeper." The witch doctor says, smirking, "You really think you can escape the horrors of this world ? Do you really think your mind is a safe haven from evil?" He laughs manically. "You were wrong...but don't blame me, blame my friends on the other side..."

It starts. Horrid images fill the darkness. All the keeper's top fears. Spiders crawl around him, he can almost feel their tingling horrid legs dance across his skin. Snakes begin to wrap around him. The space seems to close in, the air getting thicker, small spaces. Images swirl through the space, growing and mutating.

Finn wakes up as a scream erupts from his dry throat.

"Just a dream..."The keeper whispers to himself, "It was just a dream..." Sweat drips down his face as he looks at his surroundings. This time he's not in his normal prison cell. He's in a small room, no windows, one door, stonewalls, stone floor.

Finn looks down at himself and sees that this time, rather than chained to the wall, he's strapped to a wooden chair, his arms to the arm rests, his ankles to the legs of the chair.

"You fool it wasn't JUST a dream." A voice sneers. A man steps out of the shadows. His long black robes with purple and red trim billowing behind him. Finn instantly recognizes him. Judge Claude Frollo from The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

The leader's eyes widen in fear. Not because of the OT, not because he was bound to a chair, but because of what the OT held in his pale hand. A 3 inch long knife.

"What do YOU want?" Finn spits, leaning forward in his chair.

"I don't like your tone boy." The judge hisses, stepping closer, the knife glinting in the pale light. "I want the same as everyone else, to make you pay."

Those words leave a sour taste in the boy's mouth. Frollo steps closer, twiddling the weapon in his fingers.

"Now let's see..." The man reaches his hand out and grabs the front of Finn's shirt. Taking the knife he makes a long cut down the front, slicing the fabric in half, leaving Finn's torso completely exposed.

Frollo takes his knife again and presses it against the boy's stomach. Slowly, he makes a long bloody cut.

Finn cries out in pain as the metal moves through his skin.

"One for when you stole the stonecutter's quill from us..."

The judge lifts the knife up and places it again on Finn's stomach. He quickly makes another slice. The keeper cries out in agony, blood dripping down his front. It hurts. It hurts BAD. Excruciating, burning, mind numbing pain.

"One for the trouble you gave us with Jezebel..."

Frollo places the knife one more time on the keeper's stomach. The agony keeps coming. Every single slice, a new reason for the punishment, for the torture. Blood drenches the boy's stomach, the skin massacred with ripped bloody flesh.

"P-p-please, n-n-no more please!" Finn cries out, tears streaming down his face as Frollo finishes a fresh cut.

The judge smirks, his knife dripping with blood. "I never thought I'd see the leader of the so called Kingdom Keepers begging for his life at my feet."

"No m-m-ore please!" The boy whispers weakly, his eyes glassed with terror, his body trembling.

"Shut up boy!" Frollo shouts, slapping Finn across the face with a hard hand. The keeper's head snaps to the side at the force of the bony hand. Sniffles and whimpers escape from the boy's lips as he stares weakly at the floor, tears escaping from the corners of his eyes.

The smell of blood permeates the air around him, increasing the pain. Agonizing, boiling, bubbling, burning, excruciating, horrid, cold, barbaric, cruel pain in his stomach region.

Small sobs escape from the boy's throat.

"I SAID SHUT UP!" Another slap impacts the keeper's face, leaving the area stinging intensely.

"Frollo!" A woman's voice shouts, the sound full of purpose and vileness.

The judge turns away from the whimpering boy and towards the door. He sees Mother Gothel standing there, leaning against the door frame.

"Yes, madam." He asks properly, cleaning the blood off the knife and flicking the liquid onto the floor.

"They're ready for him. Maleficent has something marvelous planned for Gaston to do..."

For some reason Finn didn't believe Gothel. Whatever Gaston had was going to do to him was going to be the complete opposite of a good time. Like "Oh hey enemy! Let's go ride teacups and eat ice cream while I torture you to death!"

Frollo glares back at the keeper. The boy stares into the man's icy cold eyes, fear painted on his face.

The judge smirks and turns back to the woman.

"Send some pirates to bring the boy. This should be fun to watch..."

A lump forms in Finn's throat. They really did want to kill him. They hated him so much that they want to watch him bleed to death painfully at their mercy. The keeper winces as his breathing becomes hard. The pain increases and he cries out.

"Guys, please hurry..." He whispers to himself. He finally admits it to himself. He's hopeless. The pain increases and he cries out yet again in agony, blood dripping down his torso. He let's out a harsh whisper through pained lips. "Please."


I really loved this chapter when I read it. Do you know why? Because I am the one who thought of the idea for Frollo cutting him! I DID! I loved it so much that every time I read the chapter, I would laugh at the torturing. Man I felt so evil, just like Hades!

Stay tuned my Chicklets!
