Proxy in Command (Creepypasta X Reader)

Chapter 53

I didn't notice I was crying. Not because of the pain, but because I was scared. Zalgo was winning and I couldn't let him. I can't be stuck in the under realm with my soul being tortured for eternity or as his bride. That's not the future I wanted to live in.

My mom's words kept repeating inside my mind as I kept crawling.

"Zen will kill him if you choose to stay with us, Y/N."

Of course, because if I died, Zen would be the last L/N descendant alive and he would have killed Zalgo. My mom even gave me a hint we were siblings but I didn't catch it. But Zen is dead and now it was my responsibility to kill him.

I barely moved a few feet when Zalgo used his foot to flip me on my back. I struggled to breathe as I felt panic settle in. I feared this was it. This is how I'm going to die and I haven't hurt Zalgo yet.

Zen's sacrifice would be in vain and the pastas would be in danger if Zalgo survives. He would somehow get even more powerful just by proving he can avoid his destiny. No one would be safe. I had to do something, I couldn't let him win.

Zalgo got down on his knees, trapping my body beneath him.

"It seems like the vision is coming true, my love. The only difference is, you're the only one dying in this forest." I quivered as I closed my eyes, trying to steady my breathing and cover up the wound on my stomach. I tried to ignore his words and focus on breathing but the pain in my abdomen was throbbing. I couldn't imagine what Zen felt.

"It's a shame it had to come to this, my love. We could have been powerful rulers and have everyone on their knees for us. We could have lived forever in peace as we enjoyed our luxuries. But you just had to be foolish and choose Slenderman over me. I'm going to make you regret betraying me."

Zalgo grabbed my chin and forced me to look at the pastas who were screaming for Zalgo to let me go. I couldn't make out what exactly they were screaming but I heard their yells.

"Do you have any last words for them? For him?"

I stared at Slenderman as I sobbed. I no longer had any resentment toward him because I was afraid this was the last time I was going to see him. I closed my eyes and did something I hadn't done in years. I opened my mind to Slenderman for the first time in eleven years.

I allowed him to see what I imagined my funeral would be like. Offenderman would pick the finest roses he could find as Trenderman dressed me up in a dress he always wanted me to wear. Splendorman would spend time with Sally, the niece he always wanted seeing as I acted so cold towards him for the past months. I wish I could have apologized to him. Slenderman and the pastas would get along and be one happy family, even if it meant I wouldn't play a role in it. They wouldn't have to worry about any dangers or keeping their existence a secret.

I slowly opened my eyes as I felt my eyelids getting heavier and my breathing became difficult, making me gasp for air. I only have a few seconds left to change my destiny.

Slenderman shook his head. "You'll live Y/N! You have to be strong!"

But I've been strong for so long...

"I'm still debating whether I should revive you or not but just know, whatever happens, you will always belong to me. Both you and your soul are mine." Zalgo wrapped his hand around my waist, bringing me closer to him as his other hand relaxed on my cheek.

I closed my eyes as I felt his breath on my face.

"Any last words, little one?" His nose touched mine and felt our lips centimeters away.

I opened my eyes as I gasped for air for the last time, whispering my final words.

"I won."

I grabbed the golden dagger with red rubies on the handle from my back pocket and stabbed him in the heart. I had gotten it before Slenderman entered the office where we had our last confrontation. I couldn't have used the dagger earlier in case Zalgo would have destroyed it. I was just waiting for the perfect time.
