Amarah As The New Killer

by Fuschiveil

Summary:

There isn't much content about Amarah unknowing if he was really scrapped or not so I made this fanfic for fun where hes the killer!
His killer design is pretty basic so his killer appearance will be different in this fic so it basically my headcanon, not his canon design.

Not the best writer so it will be pretty garbage but I still hope it still enjoyable to read
And regarding to Phosphorus as his lore is little known but a few was shared from the stream, these are my theories! (Still reminder this is FANON so don't take it completely canon)

Notes:

Grammar mistakes is expected and this chapter was written at 1 am lmao

Chapter 1

....

"Why are you crying my child?"

....

"W-Why won't Azure wake up..? Y-You told me the Spawn would bring him back... Was I not devoted enough? Did I do something wrong?"

"Oh chosen one, give it time. Our lord always keep it promise to give everyone a glorious rebirth. Pray to it everyday, listen to it voices... Give in."

"You've done well. Azure is in good hands and you may return back. Come see me again tomorrow, I will offer you more guidance, to get closer to our lord."

"Will.. being close to the spawn bring Azure back.?"

...
"Yes. If you want Azure back, then do not dissapoint."

The cultist left the corridor, silently closing the door, leaving the other on their own.

"With Azure out of the way, it should be easy to command you. You of all the other members have something special. Completely carrying ITS blessing. I always thought you were just a well devoted follower until I have seen your tail. This is ITS sign for me to act." The man fixed his cloak, ready to go to the main area of the church.

He knelt, praying, seeking for answers..
Everything is going well. Just so perfect.
Two Time has so many potential, so open minded and very vulnerable. When he first took them in the cult they were one energetic child. It was a difficult work to watch over them while holding the highest position in the cult, to guide everyone to get closer to their beloved god.

But what made it easier, was how obedient they were.

Until...
They met him.

Azurewrath.

Amarah admired his great knowledge with flowers. Being a good helper at creating medicines for the cult and of course, the nightshades.
Reduced into safe for consumption, used by the cultists to consume.

He did not mind about Azure eitherway as he takes an important role in the cult as the botanist.
But the main problem was... He was too close to Two Time.
And it clashes his plan. To make Two Time take a high position in the cult by being very devoted, a purpose that cannot be easily shattered... And full of obedience to no one but him and the Spawn.
Two Time was too distracted with love. An emotion that holds you back. He always keeps an eye on Two Time and they sneak out with Azure very often.
It foils his plan and the Spawn's will so much.

So to finally end it..

Let make Two Time chose.

Something eternal.... Or fleeting?

"You do not have any other choice. You MUST do it." Amarah spoke coldly.
"B-But.. I can't. No.." Two Time hesitated.
"That ghostfire was given to you for a reason. As the most trusted member to wield a dagger forged by our god itself, you must heed it calls." Amarah stepped closer.

"No.. What will he think of me if I did this? I-I love him." Two Time was shaking while holding the dagger.
Everytime Amarah hears about Two Time loving Azure makes his blood boil. That botanist is holding the soon to be cult's sharpener back.

 

But of course, Amarah is a smart man.
Always having plans to succeed what he wants
What IT wants.

 

"Are you questioning our god's demands, or have you forgotten the purpose of our religion?"

Two Time lifted their head to lock eyes with their mentor, listening closely as they were reminded they are doing something...
Unfavorable. Questioning their god? Someone they are suppose to obey and follow it path with every step?

"Well let me remind you."

.....

Ah. That little memory still brought a smile to Amarah's face.
Finally getting Two Time to listen and follow the rules. But one thing he hates is their sorrowful grieving face.
They are not supposed to grief. Azure was gone for good.
Why would they chose him over the Spawn?

But thats no longer matters, because he will change that. He views Two Time as nothing but a good puppet to command and use. He admits, he does view them as their own child after so many years he took them in, looking after them, offering them his teachings.

Two Time was supposed to be his successor. And it will finally be achieved.

 

.....
The night has passed.

Two Time arrived hesitantly, face to face to their mentor who was expecting them.

"Did you sleep well?" Amarah asked.

"Yeah." Two Time replied.. but it was obviously a lie. Amarah can see those tear marks beneath their eyes.
He approached them wiping a tear on their eyes that they didn't realize was there.. stress increases knowing they are not what Amarah wished them to be.

As usual, he would repeat the same thing or scold them about it. But this time...

He pulled them into a warm hug.
"I understand what you are going through. But trust me, everything will be fine."

Two Time was confused.
Their mentor... Wasn't the type to pull off the kinds of things..

"Follow my steps, listen to my every words. My words are absolute, IT is our truth, I am IT's messenger and I will help you ascend further... To the grander step of rebirth."

"Will you obey?"

....

"...I'll obey."

"Good. Let us start our next step."
"Our Spawn's sharpener."
My very own successor. Full of many potential to please the Spawn.

Chapter 2: Forsakened

Summary:

Present time, in the realm of the forsakened.

Survivors who died in the round were sent back to their cabin. Either to sleep, discuss or play games or pet the cat (lol) as a way to pass time.
And on the other side.. unexpected foes are still on track with what happening.

(No beta read. I'll do that later to fix any mistakes)

Time lost its meaning in this realm.

A cabin in the middle of nowhere filled with people from other areas, places, even worlds.

They were waiting, but for what? minutes have passed and the clock started to tick loudly.

1 minutes and 15 seconds..

"Last man standing has begun.. Do you all think they will be alright with 1x on their own this time?" asked the military man with blue hair.

"I don't think I have any reason to doubt them. They are quiet as a mouse that even I barely hear them coming behind me" said the gambler flipping his coin for fun.

50 seconds...

"1x is really ruthless of all the other killers we are dealing with. Let just hope they'll make it.. finding out he can cast necromancy to bring our dead selves back but as his minions sends me shivers." said the yellow haired person. 

30 seconds...

They are suprisingly holding on.

On the other side... during the GAME.


huff.. 

It a struggle to run away from the minions while at the same time avoiding the killer's attacks. 

Two Time does not know how much time left as they are more focused to avoid the killer's ranged attack.

"Agh.. where are you?!" a loud stab to the eye noise can be heard.

Two Time quickly crouched to hide their aura. The minions lost their target and began to search someplace else. 

"That damn cultist.. They are one good hider than that exploiter tricking me with his clones." the killer continued to search at full haste.
Hes got 20 seconds left.

Two Time carefully moved out of their spot to try getting away, but suddenly they heard an incoming sword being thrown towards them.

"Eugh..!" Two Time got hit and tried to get it off their leg. The burning pain of poison is intolerable but they must keep going and not let the pain hold them back.

They are used to it now. Even death it self. But the poison?
It feels familliar.. Something that has een running in their body, in their veins for so long yet took no effect from it. Perhaps it the Spectre's doing.

They can hear 1x's footsteps getting louder and felt a swing of it sword slash them.

 

10 seconds left.


"They are able to last long.. just 10 seconds left." The survivors continued to wait until the round ends.

"This is the end for you! I caught you now!" 1x was ready to do one last swing to end Two Time.

The cultist quickly dodged to the side and went behind 1x, immediately piercing their dagger onto his back and twist it. Causing immerse pain that 1x is now used to as well.

"Augh.! I should've seen that coming.." said 1x in his thought. 

"Game over." Two Time spoke enough for 1x to hear them. The killer turned his head to them with the visible anger and hatred as usual. It is his nature after all as a malicious entity being the embodiment of hatred. 

Thought, Two Time always wonders what drove him this way. They have suspicion that Shedletsky might know as he acts serious whenever 1x is the killer on the round and 1x absolutely despises him. Always being loud calling Shedletsky names, calling him weak.. as if Shedletsky does know 1x1x1x1 personally.

"You're such a nuissance. When I get my hands on you next time.." 1x spoke angrily. 

"If spawn wills it. These games feels like a trial." Two Time replied. 

... 3 .
.. 2 ..
. 1...

Survivors win!

Two Time was teleported back into the cabin, sitting on a chair.

They sighed, finally catching a break. It was a very VERY long chase and really tough with all these minions around.

"Hey, you alright?" said the man in a pizza delivery uniform. 

"I feel tired. 1x almost got me there" the cultist replied while pushing the chair to stand up.

"I gotta give you that Two Time but you sure was able to last longer than I did against 1x. Worse, you had to deal with.. "us".." said the admin.

"I appreciate it. I thank the spawn for giving me this luck to make it." Two Time replied

"Yeaaaaaaaaah. Spawn's great." the admin replied nervously still not getting Two Time's whole religious psychosis. 

"I'm going to pray before next round" Two Time left the cabin

...
"Hey Shedletsky.. You and Builderman should know about this whole spawn thing that Two Time keep mentioning no?" the pizza delivery man spoke.
"Yeah but Dusekkar knows more about it because, it his magic nature. You're probably going to ask me why hes disapproved of Two Time right Elliot?" Shedletsky replied.

"Yeap. Two Time speaks to me normally but to Dusekkar? They are.. so formal. Every of their words holds so much respect as if Dusekkar is a higher being." Elliot replied.
"Well Dusekkar is our greatest support but the Spectre took away his true strength in order to not easily blast the killers away. Besides that we have been discussing for awhile about the Spawn "religion" Two Time been mentioning." Shedletsky replied.



"Oh? What did he say?" Elliot asked.

"That so called religion might be a cult activity. And Dusekkar have suspicion that it could be a hoax.. besides, why else would Two Time carry their dagger around?" Shedletsky explained.

"Thank god I wasn't the only one.." Noob spoke out of no where scaring both of the men.

"Noob!! how long you have been here?" Elliot was startled.

"When you two starting talking about the spawn. I really don't know what it is so I stayed and listened" Noob replied.

 

"We are still not sure and trying to confront Two Time about it might be futile. So it best we wait for the right time for the moment" Shedletsky replied.
"Oh and.. no worries, Dusekkar doesn't really hate Two Time. Hes just dissapointed in them to be involved with the cult and still provide support to them. They sometimes save his life and keep him well protected so there is no reason to not return the favor." Shedletsky reassured.

"Did you really have to tell them that?" The pumpkin head admin spoke.

"Haha! Time to skedaddle" Shedletsky quickly left to not hear Dusek's scolding.

........

 

On the other side..

The killers inside their cabin.

"Hmmmmm? Seems the last survivor that 1x couldn't catch up was your student." Spoke a large monstrous figure slithering closer.

"I raised that little lamb since their childhood. I made sure they know every technique for self defense as well." spoke Amarah.

"You know it a shame they couldn't be one of us." replied the monster.

"I should've known. They were consuming nightshades behind my back as a way to destroy themselves. If I knew sooner I could have prevented this, and finally offer them to our great lord." Amarah replied.

"It would be fun to work with someone who shares IT power." said the monster adjusting his hat.

"Phosphorus, what is Azure's condition?" Amarah asked.

"Still fighting back. But I know he won't resist any longer because now his mind is next. No one can resist IT's divine power, IT's wonderful blessing." Phosphorus spoke with a dark grin.

"I do not want to question IT's choice but why make Azure one of us? I want my student to be one of us." Amarah replied with a hint of frustration.

"Only IT have the answer. But perhaps it because Azure was offered to IT. But Two Time wasn't." Phosphorus replied.

"Tch. And I had one job." said Amarah.

"Does it not bother you to stay "human" inside the cabin filled with the other killers? Not like they know you've always been here since you're always upstairs watching them." Phosphorus spoke with a hint of amusement.

"Oh mind your business, puppet. I'm only here to watch and sometimes those killers talk about my student. I'd like to hear how far they've come and sometimes they may fumble but they still thrives." Amarah replied.

"Shhh.. do you hear IT?" Phosphorus interrupted.

Amarah went silent, listening carefully.

"...Yes. I hear IT's grace." Amarah knelt and held his hands up.

"So devoted. I can see why IT favor you so much." Phosphorus knelt down as well.

"Me? Entering the game? hmm.." Amarah spoke to himself.

Not himself truly, IT was speaking to him.

"Yes. I will entertain you. For I have not dissapointed you once throughout my career." Amarah stood up slowly.

"My, has your turn finally come to shine? I've been waiting for so long." Phosphorus spoke 

"I can't guarantee immediate victory since I still have to follow the rules. But at least, I can see them." Amarah replied.

"I'll give them a real test."

"See if they are truly worthy."

"Maybe I can find a way where they can be on my side."

"You sure are very controlling. I'm not suprised." Phosphorus slithered above leaving Amarah on his own.

"Well then, I must prepare myself."

Amarah's hair suddenly grew tints of white along with his dark blue long hair.

four extra pair of arms stretching out.. and a sharp spiderlike legs sprouting on his back.

His eyes completely became white and his skin became ghostly pale with veins visible as in red and black. 

Amarah revealed his true form. A being with so much divnity and majestic appearance but also monstrous. 

 

"Oh this will be sooo much fun. I will strike down those survivors who dares to wrong our lord."

"And Two Time.."

"We will finally meet again."

 

 

Notes:

Amarah making his debute next chapter woooo

Will Two Time side with their mentor, or their teammates?

Chapter 3: This Round's Killer is.....

Summary:

Amarah first time being a killer.

(Still no beta read either)

Notes:

Lowkey sucks but I did my best
Enjoy the chapter

As usual... The next round is about to begin.

"Beep.. round is starting sooooooooon..." Said the robot with a broken arl and leg. Unable to move around without them.

The survivors were ready. Wether they wanted to or not, they have no choice but to participate in this game. 

Unwilling or not. Neither of them have a choice.

3.

2..

1...

As the time reached 0. 

8 survivors were sent, except Builderman and 007n7.

"Oh.. seems we're not joining this round" 007n7 thought. Having no idea how to start a conversation with the admins since... Hes had quite a history with them.

Builderman only stared at the former exploiter. Then making his way to the couch to sit and relax and wait.

During the game.

As usual, survivors are teleported to different locations. 

But this time.. the place they have been teleported to is a completely new different place. This time.. they are indoors. 

Some kind of a huge temple.. castle alike? It very huge. Most of the other maps they were teleported to is usually outdoors so this is the first time.. they spawn somewhere indoors.

Chance found Guest1337 nearby and explored.

"Is this new world just so huge we cannot hear the killer to tell who it is or are they just.. also exploring like us?" Chance asked.

"I doubt they would care enough about that. They are driven to kill no matter what. Stay on guard, we usually get announced about who would be the killer whenever a round begin. This one might be new since no sounds is heard yet.." Guest replied.

They continued to walk on the long hallway. The moonlight shining through these glasses..

They are not just glasses. They form.. an image.

The strange sunny symbol. Similar to the symbol on Two Time's shirt. 

"Thats... Weird." Chance started getting the creeps. Despite how clean, shining this place is, it awfully quiet. Too quiet their footsteps can be heard echoing. 

They carefully opened the door. 

"Eek!" 

Noob quickly hid behind the statue. Thinking it was the killer who opened the door. They peeked slowly and realized it was just Chance and Guest.

"Chillax kid. It just us" Chance reassured.

Noob of course wasn't alone. They were with Dusekkar who is.. observing these images that the glasses formed.

Spawn symbol.. everywhere. They try to signify "paradise" but it won't fool Dusekkar at all.

"What even is this place?" Noob asked.

Dusekkar slowly turned to look at the other survivors.

"Beware. We're in an area filled with so much cult activity." Dusekkar went serious.

"Cult? I thought this place was a church.." Noob asked in worry.

"It is all a hoax. Whoever was running this cult been feeding people dilusions and lies. Just like what is happening to Two Time. Completely deceived." Dusekkar explained.

"But if it all a hoax how can they actually respawn?" Chance asked.

"That what I am trying to figure out. There is no way whatever cult activity Two Time participated made them obtain this second life. None of it makes sense as the wielder of spawn magic." Dusekkar started thinking. 

 "You are one smart magician it seems."

The survivors quickly turned after hearing an unfamilliar voice.

Standing before them is a tall figure with hands on his back. Watching at the survivors.

Where did he come from? There was no sound of footsteps.

"Such disrespect to call our lord a liar. Have anyone taught you to not bad mouth higher beings?" Amarah spoke.

"I won't kneel to a god that does not exist." Dusekkar replied with full seriousness. Guest1337 readied himself. Althought the man in front of them looked "human" they know hes still a threat.

"Whatever "lord" you are refering. You are being lied to." Dusekkar tried to reason with him. 

Amarah chuckled darkly. The grin that never dissapeared from his face. He stepped closer. 

Spawn.. Spectre.. it doesn't matter.

It did not matter if the Spectre disguised itself as the "Spawn". It was all apart of the plan.

All he knew is that the Spectre, the true "god" he was refering and following in it every step was infact real, giving him it's blessings and finally,

This opportunity.

To punish the heretics.

"Too close buddy!" Chance pulled his gun to aim. He quickly shot landing the bullet on Amarah's chest.

The feeling of the bullet piercing your flesh and insides.

You know what they say.. pain is one way to tell if you are really alive.

Amarah groaned at the pain. But it did confirm the survivors suspicion.

Amarah is the killer of this round.

"Well enough talk. Let get straight to the point shall we?" Amarah's body began to act wrong. The sharp spider-like legs emerged from his back 

Going back to his true form, it horrified Noob and they quickly fled the scene. Guest1337 lifted his fists to get ready for incoming attacks.

Chance carefully reloaded his gun as he took a step back.

Dusekkar stayed at the back, ready to use his staff to support his teammates.

"Dear magician, once I get you, I will place you on this altar below this statue as an offering. Offering the almighty to our beloved god will reward me well!" Amarah lifted himself up with the spider like legs from his back, leaning closer to the pumpkin admin.

Amarah was ready to scratch him. Lifting his clawed hands to leave a big mark until Guest interfered. Quickly blocking the attack for Dusekkar.

"You will not lay your hands on him!" Guest immediately punched Amarah on the face.

"Gah! Such strength!" Amarah was amazed.

....

Meanwhile...

"Sooo this is basically the church you used to be around often when you were a child?" Elliot asked.

"Yes. My caretaker.. he holds a high position and doesn't leave this place often. So it basically my home?" Two Time replied.

"I admit it really looks beautiful. But it still give me the creeps because of how awfully silent this is." Shedletsky spoke while walking along.

Taph moved his hands. Performing sign languages to speak as he has no voice.

"Oh? Taph said it easy to place traps in this place. Glad it made your job easier buddy" Shedletsky spoke.

They were interrupted when they heard loud running footsteps coming towards them.

Two Time swiftly pulled their dagger and Shedletsky pulled his sword. Ready for incoming threat to keep Elliot and Taph safe.

Suprisingly, it was a scared Noob. 

"Guys..! You're okay!" Noob was relieved.

"Huh? What wrong? Are you hurt?" Elliot quickly approached to check on Noob.

"I'm okay! But the others might need your help, It a new killer!" Noob explained.

A new killer?

Tricky. They do not know it moves and ways of attacking the survivors.

But if Chance, Guest and Dusekkar are in danger then they must act.

"I really hate spiders..! He has six arms and sharp spider legs sprouting from his back..! I think he can pierce you with these!" Noob was afraid while explaining the killer's appearance.

But Two Time.. found it familliar. Sure aside of the monstrous description, Noob mentioned how pale the killer was, his haircut and its color, the way how he speaks.

Could it be who Two Time thinks it is?

No. There is no way. But if its possible then that must be the reason why they and the other survivors were taken in this world.

The world Two Time wanted to leave behind.

They quickly went inti action to find the other survivors fending off the killer.

As soon they arrived, it was chaos. So many damaged furnitures. So many broken glasses accross the floor.

"Is that ALL you got?" Amarah mocked while holding Chance by his throat mid air, choking him.

"Chance!" Elliot yelled. 

Two Time's eyes widdened.

It really him.

Their mentor.

Their father figure.

Amarah looked at the other survivors, but what got his attention the most, was Two Time.

There they are, all grown up and strong.

"Well well well. I see you made friends Two Time." Amarah paused. But still holding Chance hostage.

Guest was heavily injured trying his best to stand. Dusekkar was trying to help him up.

"You know him?" Shedletsky asked. But the admin noticed on the cultist's eyes.

Disbelief. Even they are shocked to see the killer.

Two Time doesn't know how to feel.

Happy? ..Or terrified?

"It been a lonnnng time hasn't it? You and I have a lot of talking to do." Amarah's words were sharp.

"Now be good and kill the others. Thats an order." Amarah commanded.

Two Time was speechless. Kill their teammates? 

They might not talk to them often but the amount of times they help each other and protect each other.. Two Time felt a great bond was forged between them. As if, they really were their friends. 

No.

There is no room.. for a second betrayal.

They remember the betrayal they caused to Azure. Clear as day, haunting them each passing day.

And Amarah is no longer the same father figure they have always known. No. Hes become a killer and now hes commanding them to hurt people they got close to? 

"No. I won't obey your commands anymore. I'm sorry Amarah." Two Time replied.

The other survivors felt relieved. They always thought Two Time was shady but seeing how they are willing to stay on their side, these doubts faded. Reassurance is clear that Two Time was always on their side.

"You dare side with them instead of me? After everything I've done for you, you chose THEM?" Amarah was frustrated.

"I appreciate your teachings. I really mean it." Two Time replied.

"But.. you're scaring me. You're not the same Amarah I have aklways known.." 

Of course.. they don't realize.. that Amarah was just a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Knowing it futile to convince them. Amarah took matters into his own hands.

"So be it." Amarah's hands been leaving strange thin strings around Chance.

It feels so tightening.

All of a sudden, Chance's arm thats been holding the gun moved to aim at Guest1337. 

"I-I can't move my arm.! Stop! Stop!" Chance screamed feeling his fingers pressing the trigger. 

The gun shot. Completely injuring Guest further more. 

The killer finally used another of his abilities.. being wrapped in his webs causes you to be controlled? As in a puppet controlled by a puppeteer?

That is not good news at all. To think survivors being driven to kill each other.

Chance could not control himself and his gun continued to shoot, aiming at any survivors.

He was terrified. Worst, he knows the gun will blow up soon, killing him in the process.

"I can't reach Chance! He keeps pulling the trigger!" Elliot said.

"Elliot p-please. Just save yourself and help Guest! I'm long gone." Chance shouted.

"Don't say that! There is a way to free you!" Elliot replied.

"You sure are not a good listener are you?" Amarah appeared behind Elliot. Pouncing at the pizza delivery man landing a fatal blow on his head.

"Without you, the rest will be too easy to kill." Amarah was ready split Elliot open.

Suddenly, he felt a pain on his back.

Two Time quickly backstabbed Amarah to save Elliot. He quickly crawled away to stand and run as fast as he could.

"You dare.. use your dagger against ME?!" Amarah yelled. Grabbing Two Time.

Two Time tried to struggle from Amarah's grip. Their mentor leaned in, face full of anger.

And betrayal.

"I will never understand you. Saved you, took you in and offered you my teachings and this is how you repay me?" Amarah threw Two Time on the floor.

"I treated like my OWN CHILD. And you dare lift this dagger against your father?!" Amarah shouted even more.

Amarah was ready to attack until a forcefield appeared around Two Time.

Dusekkar casted spawn protection on Two Time. Completely grabbing the killer's attention who is now rushing at him.

"No! Leave him out of this!" Two Time tried to stand up then realized...

Something is holding them back.. tightening all over them.

No.. did they fell for it?!

Two Time looked around to check on Chance.

Hes dead. His face was burnt meaning the gun finally exploded.

They could feel their hand moving.. reaching for their daggger.

Their legs moving, going away from Dusekkar who is in grave danger.

"Dusekkar! Please hold on!" Two Time tried to pull their arms to try snap those strings. 

"Don't ever think about it little lamb. You're only hurting yourself." Amarah spoke while lifting Dusekkar.

"Shedletsky please help him!" Two Time yelled.

Amarah realized. There is still another sentinel in this round. He may have taken one down and injured two of them, but that leaves one..!

"On it!" Shedletsky swung his sword behind Amarah, landing the hit.

The killer dropped Dusekkar and he quickly got away.

"Two Time- tell me what do I do to free you?" Shedletsky asked.

"I don't know..? Cut those strings on me!" Two Time repied.

Shedletsky lifted his sword to cut the strings but all of a sudden, Two Time felt a tug. Their body moving on it own.

Their hand quickly pulled their dagger to block the sword frol cutting the strings.

"What are you doing?!" Shedletsky yelled.

"Its not me! Hes controlling me.!" Two Time is having a hard time to struggle.

Shedletsky continued to dodge Two Time's stab attacks.

They are so quick with it.

"I'll gut you like a pig!" Amarah shouted, going after Shedletsky.

The admin quickly hopped down to dodge the attack.

"Two against one? Thats not even fair there." Shedletsky stepped back. 

"Enough playtime. I vowed to bring victory this round and I will keep that vow." Amarah pointed his finger at the admin, making Two Time charge at him.

Shedletsky avoided the dagger that was close to pierce his chest. As soon he dodged, Amarah charged at him, catching him off guard.

"Damn it!" Shedletsky struggled while being held by one hand.

Two Time's hand was forced to hand their over their dagger to Amarah. Their mentir grabbed it and pinned the admin on the floor, lifting the dagger high up.

...

"Hey Two Time?"

"...?"

"It not your fault okay? We can talk about this later." Shedletsky spoke as he closed his eyes knowing what's coming.

Amarah stabbed Shedletsky, pushing the dagger to pierce his heart.

"Deja vu am I right, Two Time?" Amarah stood up. Leaving Shedletsky's lifeless body on the floor.

"Why are you doing this.." Two Time asked.

"I don't have to always remind you over and over again. This is all for our great spawn. Anything it demands, it must get it." Amarah replied.

"You still believe in our god don't you? You know you are blessed by it right? The second life, wanted by many. Can't you see how lucky you are?" Amarah continued.

"How did it come to this. What.. What happened to you?" Two Time looked at their mentor in a frowned look.

"Don't give me that look Two Time. You're more perfect when you smile. The Spawn does not like its gifts being looked down upon." Amarah lifted their chin up with his hand.

"I'm helping you. Can't you see? These are just distractions tampering with your blessing. Infact, this is what our god gifted me. Reborn into a stronger body. If you stay devoted to it enough, You can earn it too." 

"I am devoted enough. Always have. I feel like you're lying to me Amarah." Two Time still had some doubts.

Their second life, all they could feel is slight pain on their back. But did Amarah even sacrifice anyone? No. Something does not make sense, so many unanswered questions.

Amarah left Two Time on their own, unable to move.

Hes hunting down the rest of the survivors before the time reached 0. And Two Time? There is nothing they can do other than struggle on the strings they were caught in. Like a butterfly desperate to escape from the spider once it lands on its web, but you know how the story always ends.

... If Amarah is back then..

Could he be back.? 

Notes:

Next is lms father vs his they/them kid go

Chapter 4: Part 2

Summary:

Amarah kills the rest of the survivors then finally talks to Two Time with a belt on his hand- AHEM.

Notes:

Wanted to give other survivors to do more actions too so they don't feel like just side characters that does nothing and it because I love them all
Hope yall enjoy the chapter and there will be more coming

Still a few minutes left.. but Amarah can add that up soon.

He made sure to place enough traps around the church before showing up to the survivors. He can feel the survivors stepping on them, slowing them down. And he is rushing to their location right away.

"These webs are so annoying! it slowing my movement down" said Elliot, moving his feet carefully to not slip.
"Taph did you place down the traps just in case?" Guest asked.
Taph gave a thumbs up as a response.
Dusekkar barely walks as he usually floats. Able to ignore the webs placed on the floor and goes forward quickly.

The survivors quickly got startled at the loud sounds of footsteps.. no, they sounded multiple at once.
"Hes coming! Get behind me." Guest learned what the killer moves are, ready to use himself as a shield to protect the other survivors.
"Hey.. I'll be here if you get injured!" Elliot hid nearby keeping a watchful eye on the strong soldier.

"Noob, could you please get the rest of the generators done while the killer is distracted?" Elliot turned to Noob who was shivering in fear.
"Huh? Y-Yes! I can do that if the killer won't be chasing me.." Noob replied.
"The killer won't realize it either way since he'll be more focused wanting to kill us. Just run back to us if you're in danger" said Guest.
"I'll use my magic to weaken that killer just in case" Dusekkar joined in to help Guest.

Taph tapped Dusekkar's shoulder, getting his attention, the mute demolitionist pointed his finger at the stairs taking him above that has some sort of balcony on it, easy to see the whole thing below.

"Such keen eye Taph. I thank your assistance" Dusekkar made his way up as casting his spells next to the killer will be too risky as what happened earlier with Two Time.
This must be.. a spot for any member who would like to do speech for all the members. How weird. All the survivors thought none of these maps had any stories as they were made by the Spectre.

Amarah was humming on his way to enter the big area. As he stepped into the entrance, his feet hit the tripwire, feeling slowed down.
"Ah? Traps?" Amarah thought. Not only that but his location was also revealed for the survivors, quickly alarming them that he did get close.

The first thing Amarah noticed was Taph. Who recently just placed a tripmine out of rush. The survivor was startled and quickly ran towards the tripmine he placed to lure the killer.

Amarah followed him. He quickly noticed a pink sparkle and used his long spider legs to pierce it, detonating it. "Not this time." Amarah said, as the tripmine detonated near Taph it caused the survivor to get dizzy and fall down.. all vulnerable.

"You're gonna have to try harder than that!" Amarah was about to land fatal blows on Taph until Guest immediately charged at him to push him back.

"You're not laying your hands on him." Guest approached after brushing his shoulder.

Amarah got very annoyed of this Guest. Such tanky body, strong fists and even can take big blows for his teammates! 

"I'll carve your body OPEN for you to bleed. All you blood will be used as a perfect offering." Amarah spat. Lifting himself up towering Guest.

"And I thought Two Time was crazy. I pity them to be under the wing of an insane man like you." Guest lifted his arm up to block Amarah's attack.

Amarah swung his sharp hand at Guest landing on his block then immediately dashed to the side and his four arms grabbed Guest on his shoulders and waist. Guest can feel the sharp nails digging into his skins right through his uniform.

"I am righteous. You heretics have no place." Amarah was ready to stab right through Guest's heart and end him right here. But he suddenly felt an electrical feeling coursing through his body and he feels.. way more slowed down?

Guest immediately punched Amarah on the face to break free. He lifted his head up to thank Dusekkar. The pumpkin head immediately casted spawn protection to help boost Guest's resistance after noticing Amarah is charging towards him right away as soon he got himself back together after that punch.

"Guh." Guest grunted at the pain but doesn't feel weakened as the hit felt like a scratch thanks for Dusekkar's magic.

"Here!" Elliot threw the pizza for Guest to heal himself with since the nail digging onto his skin was really painful.

Amarah was annoyed. The reason why Guest still stayed strong is because his other teammates are doing everything to support him and keep him strong. He was at his lowest earlier! Even Chance shot him! But he was all back fine as if none of these happened.

Did the survivors found a medkit? that must explain it as Elliot's pizza cannot completely fix that back to 100%.

Besides that, like they say: teamwork makes the dreamwork right?

It doesn't hurt to call for help right?

Amarah continued to chase after the survivors. He must quickly take them down before his time drops to 0. He can't lose. Not as his first time.

Taph continued to throw more tripmines and keeping tripwires well hidden for the killer to easily fall for. One thing he keeps struggling is how easy it is for the killer to immediately notice his traps now. Could the third eye on the killer's forehead have good vision? 

Taph doesn't have a voice to yell out his teammates names and warn them about anything. The least he could do is place as many traps nearby for their teammates to make use of if a killer chases them but..

It becoming futile. Amarah immediately snaps the tripwire's string and pierces the tripmine to weaken its detonation.

"I can see you running out of stamina, give up." Amarah pierced Guest's shoulder pinning him at the wall.

Taph quickly rushed forward to throw the tripmine at Amarah. As soon he placed the red shard inside..

"Taph behind you!" Elliot shouted trying to rush forward.. But he was too late.

Two Time ended up stabbing Taph on the back. Elliot quickly grabbed Two Time but couldn't save Taph in time, trying to get them off from these strings that is tighetened all around their limbs.

"I'm sorry.. I'm sorry.." Two Time's eyes was widdened. They way how Taph fell down limp on the floor, heavily injured.

It reminds them something.. from the past.

Guest's jaw dropped as Taph costed his life to try and rescue him. He was next anyways as he felt Amarah snap his neck. 

"Damn it..! I was about to cast a spell to protect him..! darn this energy cooldown just to cast another" Dusekkar continued to curse.

The killer threw Guest to the side, turning his attention to Elliot who is trying to help Two Time out of the strings.

"This ends here now." Amarah quickly dashed forward to grab Elliot. The healer was startled as Amarah was on his way to kill him. But another spell was casted on him by Dusekkar.. landing both Amarah and Elliot.

Amarah was slowed down but Elliot? He got quicker. He successfully pulled Two Time out of the strings and quickly pulled their wrist to make a run for it, catching up to Elliot's level of speed thanks to Dusekkar's magic.

"The clutch.. We lost two already.." Dusekkar sighed. But heard a climbing sound nearby.

Amarah is climbing on the wall to get to him. He quickly used the stairs to get down quickly before Amarah arrived at the top.

"There is no one to protect you! Let me help you ascend to our lord so you can see IT for yourself!" Amarah's footsteps was loud and aggressive as he chased down Dusekkar.

Dusekkar's stress level began to rise. Hes used to killers killing him whenever he was unlucky but this killer? The way he speaks, how delusional he was... and worst.. the obsession for the Spawn is more crazier than Two Time's.

Dusekkar closed his eyes while running knowing Amarah got closer to him now. Feeling a little wind from Amarah's arm lifting to land a fatal hit on his back. But luckily there was a tripmine that hasn't detonated yet that Taph placed earlier, comepletely blinding the killer off guard.

Dusekkar was relieved, quickly tried to find the other survivors.

"Thank god. I must give Taph so much credit" Dusekkar said to himself as he continued to float away from the killer who was wiping his face. 

 

 

"Dusekkar, you're okay!" Elliot was relieved.

"It just four of us now. Even after Noob did all the generators we still have a few minutes before the round ends." Dusekkar replied.

"Please take this, I know you're injured" Elliot handed a slice of pizza for Dusekkar. He gave a formal gesture as a "thank you" and grabbed the pizza, enjoying the taste.

Dusekkar then turned his attention to Two Time. Who was sitting down in a trance.

"Hey. I hope you don't mind answering questions" Dusekkar spoke getting the cultist's attention. "How much do you know about this.. Amarah person?" Dusekkar asked.

Two Time was hesitant at first but there is no point of keeping secrets.

"Hes my caretaker.. and my mentor. He took me in when I was a child lost in the woods and been brought here to this very church. He always tells me about the beauty of the spawn, it promises, it gifts and the paradise it will give to everyone.. I believed him." Two Time replied.

"It easy to manipulate a child." said Dusekkar.

"Hes a very strict man who always wants me to follow the rules. A lot of things happened and I don't want to go into the details.. this is personal." Two Time stood up and grabbed their dagger.

"One thing I noticed is he doesn't try to kill you at all. Just controlling you. Does this have to do with anythng?" Elliot asked.

"I don't know either. Hes not the Amarah I've known. He was never a monster" Two Time replied.

"Two Time, just a word of advice." Dusekkar spoke. "Some people are not who they seem to be. They put on a friendly face to earn one's trust so that they can take advantage of them for their own gain. I don't believe your mentor is in anyways controlled or brainwashed based on how he speaks." 

"This is makin me overwhelmed. I need a moment please." Two Time needs a break.

"Maybe after this round because hes coming..!" Noob pointed their finger at Amarah who is charging at them.

The killer threw sharp things at the survivors. Is this another of his abilities? throw sharp thin spears?! He never done that before.. Unless.. he too works with oblation like Two Time. The more oblation he has, the more abilities he can obtain.

Elliot got hit on his shoulder and quickly backed away. Two Time stepped forward and poinged their dagger at Amarah.

"How cute. Pointing your dagger at someone who was always on your side all you life?" Amarah taunted.

"No. It because you became a threat." Two Time replied.

"If only you never met that botanist." Amarah replied codly.

"Y-You have no right to talk bad about him..!" Two Time shouted. First time they have shown other emotion in front of the survivors.

"Well look where it got to you now. Enough distractions." Amarah was about to attack Two Time. The cultist dodged to the side to avoid the attack and the killer quickly used his other arm to punch Noob away.

"Noob!" Elliot shouted rushing to help the survivor.

"Elliot wait!" Dusekkar tried to warn the pizza delivery man who couldn't move anymore as he felt sticky webs on his feet. 

Damn it.. that one of his traps placed earlier..!

Amarah immediately used the sharp spider leg to stab right through his chest.

"Gah.. not again.." Elliot was annoyed to be stabbed on his chest before dying. First John Doe and now Amarah? Better than having his neck snapped by Coolkidd or having his head torn from his body by 1x.

Two Time was about to backstab the killer until Amarah threw Elliot's body at them.

Noob was scared to be more closer to the killer. Spiders.. They hated spiders..!

"Boo.. I heard you like spiders so I shaped my tentacles to look like their legs." Amarah spoke, revealing one of his secrets.

"Eek! Don't touch me!" Noob quickly popped the slateskin turning themself into a stone. Amarah was confused at this strange effect.. But that didn't matter. All he knows is it won't last long before he can kill Noob right on the spot.

Two Time carefully layed Elliot's lifeless body to their side and stood up. They quietly crouched and sneaked closer while Amarah was distracted with Noob.

Noob's stress was rising. Their slateskin effect is about to end soon and they know what will happen next once it wears off. They feel like they have 3 seconds left before they'll be sent back to the cabin after their death.

"Oh do not fret. IT will have mercy on you and I'll make sure it will be quick." Amarah promised darkly. Until he felt a stab to the back yet again. He did not hear Two Time sneaking up on him and it made him even more angrier his students keeps interfering his work.

Amarah tried to grab them and was immediately shot by Dusekkar's spell yet again. Angering him way even more.

"I've had ENOUGH of you! I'll kill you right there!" Amarah's spider legs have reshaped into tentacles that can stretch for longer range. Immediately stabbing Dusekkar right through his stomach he coughed blood.

"Good luck.. Y-You two.." Dusekkar muttered before the light in his pumpkin head faded, signifying hes dead.

Amarah aggresively threw Dusekkar away and turned his attention to Noob who was farther away popping their bloxy cola.

"Not so fast." Amarah instantly covered the pathways with webs to keep the remaining survivors trapped.

Noob noticed there is nowhere else they could run and go pushed down by Amarah as he towered them.

"I admit, I really pity you. Those fears in your eyes.." Amarah leaned in to study them closer. "But no heretics deserve forgiveness if they continue to oppose the Spawn." Amarah mercilessly killed Noob on the spot.

...

Finally.

The time have changed to 1 minutes and 15 seconds. Last Man Standing has begun.

Two Time began to sweat as they feel their back deforming, bones forming into wings sprouting out of their flesh. They are used to this pain as it always happen.

"Look at you." Amarah stepped closer. "And you say I'm a liar?" 

"Just look at how PERFECT you are Two Time. Beloved angel." Amarah continued to add more.

"Kneel." Amarah swinged at Two Time's legs causing them to fall on their knees. "I'll give you a chance to repent. Pray with me and listen closely.." 

"So thats why you're keeping me alive? To keep listening to you?" Two Time spoke.

"Dearest Two Time. I have always been your savior, guiding you to the right path. It wrong for me to throw away all my effort by just killing you. I just know there is a way to convince you to join my side." Amarah replied.

"But I must ask... Why were you consuming nightshades behind my back." Amarah grabbed Two Time by their hair with an angry tone. "Were you grieving for him? something that can still be returned and you still chose to end your life so soon?"

"That what you always say!.. But he never returned! I prayed everyday in hopes that he will come back but he didn't..! And I thought my second life was waking up to this cabin.." Two Time replied.

Of course, Amarah can't tell the real truth to Two Time. Not yet. His student does not trust him so if he told them the truth, it will be very complicated and worst, Two Time would see him as an enemy.

"Just answer me.." Amarah spoke calmly. "What do you see in him."

"Someone I absolutely cherish. He was the only one who truly understands me.. someone who would stand by my side whenever I needed him.." Two Time replied. "He made me feel things that felt very real. Other than the times I was trained under you."

"Would you rather go out with a mortal than something eternal?" Amarah wanted to confirm.

"Whatever's eternal, all it gave me was pain. I betrayed him in the worst way and I had to watch him cry in my arms as the dagger was piercing his heart. Confusion and frear in his eyes was all I've seen before his last breath and it continued to haunt me. You.. You made me a danger." Two Time pulled their dagger to swing at Amarah's arm to hurt him. Breaking free from his grasp.

 

"I made you BETTER. Without my teachings, you would be WEAK!" Amarah shouted.

"Tell me Amarah, is Azure here as well? Answer me!" Two Time shouted.

"Keep him out of this. This is between us." Amarah replied in anger. His tentacles are twitching and restraining from attacking.

Two Time must not know about Azure being locked way to go through a slow transformation. Amarah learned this mistake with John Doe and his wife, Jane. As the Spectre took too long to adjust John Doe's vision to not be able to see her face anymore.

"Enough talk. It time to prove yourself worthy." Amarah put his hands behind back letting the tentacles do the job to kill Two Time. "If you are good enough without me, then PROVE IT"

Amarah continued to strech his tendrils towards Two Time. The cultist rushed to hide behind the statue. They remember that statue, having the altar below used to offer. Thought, Two Time never offered Azure in this cold empty cold church. They performed their ritual at their favorite place since childhood and buried him there. The least they could do for their lover after the betrayal they've pulled on him.

"You would have become the strongest weapon for the cult if you never left me. You chose to live with him over me." Amarah continued to speak.

30 seconds...

"I could make you apart of me if that what it takes for you to join me." Amarah completely destroyed the statue throwing it to the side revealing Two Time out in the open. Shocked at their mentor's strength.

"I could use a good minion to kill for me." Amarah approached creepily towards them.

25 seconds...

"I'll even have to wipe those memories of yours if that what it takes for you to stop holding back." Amarah grabbed Two Time with his tentacles, tightening the grip.

Two Time was squirming. Trying to struggle to break free.

"You will know nothing but obedience for the Spawn. That was your purpose all along. I'm not wrong am I?" Amarah asked.

20 seconds...

"No. It was indeed my purpose.. I am infact.. sharing IT's power after all.." Two Time struggled to talk.

Amarah dropped them on the floor.. he lowered his hand to them... "Then will you join me? Together, we will wipe out all of those who dares to stand in our god's way."

"And of course, with me by your side.. I will make you more stronger than you are right now. Far more! With great superhuman strength even as our god loves it devoted followers and rewards them well." 

Two Time slowly lifted their hand up.. reaching for their mentor's hand.

15 seconds...

Two Time held Amarah's hand. Their mentor helping them stand up.

"I am happy that you finally understand, my child." Amarah was happy with Two Time's decision. "I promise you, you will not regret it. This time you will truly see IT." 

Two Time was silent. Their grip on Amarah's hand was tight. Amarah noticed this immediately "What wrong? Nervous? It will be all fine as I am here now-" 

Amarah was instantly cut off with Two Time swiftly piercing their dagger behind his back with their free hand.

10 seconds...

"YOU..!" Amarah realized Two Time was stalling him before it almost time.

Two Time quickly backed away to try make distance. Knowing Amarah will be charging at them anytime now before the timer reached 0.

"LITTLE LAMB.. YOU MAY THINK YOU'LL GET AWAY.. BUT NEXT TIME.." Amarah stood up after the pain goes away.

"I PROMISE YOU.. IT WILL HURT. IT WILL HURT UNTIL YOU SUBMIT. YOU MUST FEEL THE WRATH OF OUR GOD FOR YOU TO FINALLY UNDERSTAND." Amarah was glaring at their student menacingly.

Two Time was afraid. They wanted to apologize. They admit they did miss Amarah as he was a good father figure they have always known but as time passed, he started to reveal his true colors further more.

5 seconds...

Amarah was very furious. He was so close.. so close..! Yet he failed in his first time as the killer, losing to his own student. But..

"..." Amarah was silent a little as the timer continued to go down.

"You've proven yourself worthy.. I am proud of you Two Time." Amarah spoke.

Two Time's eyes widdened a little. They don't know what to say but...

That something their mentor would say.

So this monster.. really was their mentor.

...

Survivors wins!

Both of them was teleported them away to ther respective cabin. The round ended.

 

Chapter 5: Aftermath Of The Round

Summary:

What happened after the round

Amarah telling Azure that he can do whatever he wants with his student to benefit his plan (He doesn't know Azure gonna kiss them after inflicting enough pain /j)

Notes:

Chapter's pretty angsty
Have fun reading

Amarah was teleported back to the cabin. His face shadowed trying to think what happened recently.

It suprised the other killers who never seen him before. They noticed the round started but neither of them was teleported.

Amarah quietly went outside without a word. Hes not intrested in talking to those killers anyways and he has to meet someone.

"So how did it go? I heard you lost." Phosphorus appeared out of the shadows to greet Amarah.

"I held myself back a little too much for my student. But it seems whatever I wish to achieve, will not be simple." Amarah replied while pulling out his glasses to place them.

"I suggest you break them first. Then their mind can be vulnerable. You get what I mean, right?" Phosphorus replied.

"Push them to the edge huh? Until they have nothing left." Amarah liked the idea.

"Care to tell me Azure's condition now?" Amarah asked with a hint of disatisfaction of mention him.

"His transformation is complete. He got too weak to resist and now hes fully changed. Now hes nothing but a wrathful creature who want to lash out very badly towards your student." Phosphorus replied.

"Actually, I have an idea." Amarah smirked. "My student loves him right? What is there to hold on to when the person you cherish so much now absolutely hates you? That way.. they'll feel alone."

"So you do hear my ideas huh. I'm flattered." Phosphorus was sarcastic.

"Whatever. But I'm looking forward to this day. When will it be Azure's turn?" Amarah asked.

"There is still John Doe and Coolkidd to do their turns. Azure is planned 3rd." Phosphorus replied. "Golly, Master SHOULD allow us to watch the match! I would love to see their face after what I've done to their dearest." 

"Oh well then in the meantime, I would like to see him." Amarah requested.

"Well then, follow me" Phosphorus led the way.

 

On the other side...

Two Time teleported back onto the chair. Taking a deep breath.

They can feel the other survivors looking at them, wanting more answers. Builderman and 007n7 were informed about what happened and stared silently.

"You wanna talk about it?" Chance decided to get straight to the point.

"No." Two Time denied instantly.

"It doesn't matter, all I know is the cult is filled with crazy miniacs." Dusekkar spoke.

"I don't like dealing with him again. He has the ability to control us so if he controls those who can fight back, we'll be forced to hurt each other." Shedletsky spoke.

"I agree.. I do not like using my hands to hurt my teammates." Guest added in.

...

Guest sat next to Two Time.

"Hey.. is everything alright?" he said with a worried tone.

"I'm good. thank the spa-" Two Time was cut off.

"Knock it off with your religion. That so called religion you believe in is not real and it what drove your mentor mad." Dusekkar spoke.

"Don't say that Dusekkar.. How else would he return and me being able to respawn?" Two Time replied.

"Your cult is a HOAX, Two Time. You have to believe me." said Dusekkar.

"How is it a hoax?!" Two Time yelled.

"I'm still working on it to find out the truth. I know more about respawning and the reason why I'm telling is because I don't want you to continue beliving into more lies. I did not expect it would get worse until your mentor appeared! AS the Killer as well!" Dusekkar replied.

"Leave me alone okay? I.. I'm getting mixed feelings after everything." Two Time placed their hand on their face.

Of course it too much to handle. Your own father figure became a killer. Is it worse than having your son become a killer for 007n7's situation?

"Listen. I may disaprove of you a lot, but the reason I'm telling you this is because I care. As the admin it my job after all." Dusekkar replied.

 

"I think we should give them space. Why don't you go outside for a bit?" Guest suggested. A nice fresh air will do after all.

Two Time agreed and stood up, passing the others and step towards the door. Twisting the knob to open the door then close it after they go outside. They silently sit next to the lake, admiring the view.

They moved their feet around the water, feeling it cold.

Do I have every reason to doubt my god? or not speak about it for just a little bit?

I believed it at first. Until I met Amarah. Not in the best shape ever. But I must ask.. if we were reborn.. are we the same people?

Spawn..

Sometimes I always wonder if you even hear my prayers. My pleas, my cries, my.. pain.. the never ending grief and guilt I have to hold until now.

If you truly exist.. why have you never showed me a sign? a real one.. other than giving me the second life.

...

Ah what am I doing.. I need to start my prayers before the round start.

...

As time reached 0. Two Time opened their eyes and noticed they are still in the same place.

It seems for this round, Two Time was not chosen to participate. Who is the other survivor that didn't join? They looked behind and saw Taph standing outside, watching the two workers barricading against the cake creature that is trying to reach them.

"I should apologize.." Two Time stood up and walked towards the other survivor.

"Hey.." Two Time greeted, catching Taph's attention who turned around and looked at them.

"I'm sorry about last round. I was not in control and I couldn't stop myself." Two Time apologized. Obviously stabbing someone who trusts you gives them flashbacks.. and it scares them.

Taph gave a pat on Two Time shoulder and nodded. It a signification of "It okay."

The demolitionist walked back inside the cabin, leaving Two Time on their own.

How odd.. It feels strange to be forgiven right after you killed one of your teammates.

The guilt they have been hiding for so long finally rising, as they remember that faithful day...

 

"Two Time? Are you okay..?" That familliar voice. Slowly his hand reaching out for them.
Two Time was shaking. Having their back on him, he could hear their quiet sobs and they were.. holding something?

"I'm sorry.."

Two Time's eyes shot up from the trance. An old past that keeps haunting them. "I wish.. there was another way.." They thought. An event like this could have been prevented. But they hate to justify Azure's death to be the Spawn's will. But they hope that this sacrifice.. rebirthed him to somewhere more peaceful. He was kind, understanding and someone they would enjoy listen to for hours so it wouldn't make sense for him to be in this hell.

Despite how much Amarah tells Two Time what they did was right, they still believe what they done is their worst sin.

Taking advantage of the willing and who put so much trust in you. They still remember those eyes from Azure: fear, confusion and betrayed even.

They'll never forgive themself for that. Something.. is wrong now.

...

On the other side..

There was Azure sitting on the floor. Completely monstrous than pure like Amarah.
"Well seems he woke up from his sleeping beauty. I'll leave you two be." Phosphorus left.

Amarah slowly approached Azure. He really changed compared to his human self.

What caught Amarah's attention is his hat and the mouth being zipped shut. Amused with IT's choice of creating Azure's monstrous body.

Azure spotted Amarah and stood back. Having no idea what is going on and why does his body feel so wrong.. All he knows is Amarah isn't as normal either.

"Took you long enough to awaken. How do you like your new look?" Amarah tilted his head, observing him.

Azure took a look at his hands, that got bigger and sharper as well. His eyes, purplish widdening as he continued to examine himself. He feels so different and have no idea what is going on.

"So monster of you. Welcome to the club." Amarah spoke.

Azure tried to speak but what came was muffled. Panic hits him as he realized he can't talk at all.

"What? Can't talk?" Amarah teased. Then grabbed Azure's zippers to unzip his mouth to permit him to speak. "Say what you want now." 

"What happened to me? Where are we? What have you done to me?!" Azure had so many questions and the tone he let out was wrathful.

"Oh calm down, no need to shout at me. You were just reborn thanks to the almighty Spawn." Amarah replied.

"Spawn? You mean Spawn itself brought me back? But why am I like this?" Azure was still not convinced. 

"Well let me ask you this: Do you remember what happened before you died?" Amarah asked.

Azure carefully gathered his thought. Trying to remember...

..!

He remembers. Two Time pushing him down to the ground.. with their dagger held and... all he could feel was a burning pain in his heart. Azure placed his hand to his chest, the spot he was stabbed on.

Two Time.. their beloved partner.. how could they betray him like that? All those trust he had in them. The last thing he heard before everything went dark was uncontrollable sobs coming from them.. and endless apologies.

... No.. He still need answers. Why did Two Time do this? Did they chose their cult over him? That thought hurt him so much because he would never put anything over Two Time so why would the person they trust so much would?

From confusion changed to anger.. and resentment.

"How could they.. After everything? Was I never meant anything to them at all?" Azure questioned. This led Amarah to smile darkly even more before changing his face to pity.

"Aw Azure. It wasn't completely their fault as what they did was for the spawn. Your death was not in vain as they received a second life from you." Amarah replied.

"What is the meaning of this Amarah? They murdered me! and you're justifying that as a sacrifice for the spawn?!" Azure was in anger and aggressively stepped forward.

"Can't you see they did you a huge favor? Look at you. Reborn in a stronger body with possible great strength! How can you be disatisfied for being given a second life like how the ritual went? Your death was not in vain. Two Time received their second life and so did you." Amarah replied. "Besides, the Spawn doesn't like it gifts being looked down upon."

Azure hated that Amarah was right. "Is Two Time.. here also?" he asked.

Amarah nodded in response. 

"I have to talk to them." Azure's expression was serious, angry even. He needed answers.

Phosphorus manipulated Azure into thinking he would ascend and Amarah manipulated Azure into believing the Spawn. How easy it is to fool this stubborn sheep. 

While Azure is still processing with everything, all he could feel is anger and resentment towards Two Time. Still deeply hurt for what they did. He still remembers how Two Time held him closer to them while they were sobbing for his name. The last thing he felt was feeling their warmth while his heart was burning in pain because of the dagger he was pierced with.

He can't forgive them that easily. This is very complicated for him because.. the feeling of longing and yearning lingered. But he'll keep that well hidden for now. All that matters is to find Two Time.

Azure pushed Amarah aside, leaving this strange cabin he was locked in for awhile. But one thing he found suspicious is.. was Amarah smirking? What is he grinning about exactly? 

"You're hiding something aren't you?" Azure turned to look at his partner's mentor.

"Hiding? Like what?" Amarah replied.

"It almost as if you planned this. Did you hurt them." Azure wanted to make sure.

"I have been their caretaker for years and never once have I laid my hand on them. You're getting the wrong idea, Azurewrath." Amarah replied.

"Keep my name out of your mouth.. I still know you don't like me much even in our previous life." Azure really was getting Amarah's nerves.

"I admit. But that doesn't mean I'll cast you aside. Because I will always treat my followers equally and guide them to paradise. It is my job as our spawn's right hand man." Amarah replied.

"You call this paradise? Since when plunging daggers onto people so they could have a painful is called 'paradise'? I thought our religion wasn't such cult activity.. is this why you've given Two Time their asigned dagger?" Azure questioned.

How silly of you Azurewrath. It was indeed a cult activity.

"Don't talk about out religion like that. It is neccessary to give our well devoted followers their own daggers to perform rituals for offerings. But you wanna know what bothers me? Two Time performed the ritual at the nightshade field instead of inside the church. Where we would place you on the altar." Amarah explained with a tone of frustration. "I was angry. They refuse to answer me why but it doesn't matter. The ritual was a success anyways."

Azure is still not convinced as something is not right. But what got his attention was, Two Time performed the ritual at his favorite place instead of the church? Usually he hears about the 'ceremonies' that always takes place in the church and he doesn't often join like Two Time. It obvious Two Time is forced to be present in every event that is happening because of Amarah. Besides that, he realized what exactly those ceremonies were as he fell prey into it.

...

And Two Time chose to do the ritual themselves than offering him up to the church like that. That just his theory as he couldn't remember what happened next other than Two Time clinging to him with endless apologies and unctrollable sobs.

Before Azure could ask anything else, his mouth was immediately zipped shut. He tried to unzip it himself but something is preventing him to. He sat down, putting all his strength to move the zipper but it was futile. Is Amarah controlling that? Or is it something else.?

"I think we had enough talk now, Azurewrath. Now that you're here, I have a job for you." Amarah leaned down. "Whenever a round begins, there is a chance you will be sent there and your job is to kill everyone you see before the time reaches 0."

Azure was confused. What in the world is Amarah assigning him now? Kill? He has never killed anyone. But all of a sudden, Azure felt something sprouting from his back. Its making him sick as he feels extra things he can control.. are those, tentacles? They look like vines..

"You must not spare anyone. Fail, and the Spawn will be very dissapointed in you." Amarah added.

Azure tried to speak but what came out are muffled.

"Please do not fret. Plus isn't it also a good opportunity to see Two Time again? You want to talk to them so bad right? I'll give you this opportunity, if you do as I say." Amarah's grin was now visible. Showing his true intentions.

Azure had no choice but to comply. He can't even say no because of his mouth being zipped shut. 

"The second round have begun. After this round, it will be your turn. I'll be leaving now that I told you everything." Amarah walked away.

No.. Ugh.. no come back! 

Azure reached his hand for Amarah. But he never looked back as he left Azure in his own inside this cabin filled with so much scent of nightshades.

All Azure can do is wait and collect his thought. So much confusion is going on and what bothers him the most is so many of his questions are left unanswered. Perhaps Two Time can answer them if he finds them.

But oh boy.. that resentment towards them is still there. He can't let them off the hook that easily after what they've done, maybe he can use this opportunity to MAKE them feel how he felt.

An opportunity for revenge.

"If what Amarah said is true, then I'll be patient. I won't go easy on you if I found you and I'll make sure it will hurt as much as you hurt me." Azure promised himself as he sat down waiting.

...

But through this feeling of resentment, deep down... He missed them. 

And it only makes him angrier cuz of it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chapter 6: This Round's Killer is... AZUREWRATH.

Summary:

Azure takes down the other survivors so he can play tag with his beloved!

Pretty long chapter and might not make sense but enjoy reading!

Notes:

I headcanon that Two Time's favorite flower is marigold to reference Toki's upcoming marigold TT's skin design because I can and no one can stop me

When Azure dated Two Time he had 10 heart attacks after finding out they were adopted by Amarah who holds a very high position in the cult (One wrong move and hes gonna get smitten) /HEADCANNON

The round finally ended.

Every survivors who survived returned to the cabin, back to the chair as usual.

"That was a close call.. Thank you Chance" 007n7 smiled at the Gambler.

"Anytime buddy. Can't let one of us die and I'm glad my gun worked this time" Chance replied. He leaned back on the chair crossing his arms to rest his head on, placing his legs on the table.

"Let get straight to the point. A new round is about to begin, does anyone need checkups?" Elliot asked.

All of the survivors replied with a no, feeling okay.

"We still have a whole minute so I guess we can use that to talk about strategies" Said Dusekkar.

"Yeah.. Hey Builderman?" Guest getting the admin's attention. "Maybe try building sentries at the edge of the areas that are above so that it can target lock killers no matter below it or next to it. I seen you do that one time and your sentry actually shot the killer from above and that helped" 

"Oh. I remember. I appreciate you for reminding me, Guest." said Builderman.

"The round's about to begin in 10 seconds.. Good luck everyone" Shedletsky said.

As usual, reality shifted and chosen survivors were teleported into the game.

And the place they were teleported to... The Church.

Some of the survivors thinks Amarah is the killer again, raising their guard up as they are still not used to his other tricks.

But after you knew who that killer is, why their name is not announced at the start?

It can't be a new killer is it?

 

 

 

 

 

"This church.. I remember." Azure was walking slowly. "So what I have to do.. is kill everyone and thats it?"

Azure continued to think while exploring the place. He can feel the survivors aura, sensing their exact locations. Seems they are all together.

"That must be my targets. Let get this over with." Azure decided to go in a rush as he noticed he infact does have limited time like Amarah said.

Hes getting closer to the survivors location. 

 

 

"Is everyone here?" asked Builderman after building his sentry.

"I see 8 of us so yeah" Shedletsky replied.

The survivors were vigilant. They thought it a good idea to stick together for now since now they have Builderman to offer greater support.

"I-I think I hear something here!" Noob shouted.

It caught the other survivors attention, mostly Guest who went to inspect nearby.

He can hear the footsteps. The killer is coming.

"Get ready to make a run for it everyone!" Guest said, getting ready for any incoming danger.

"You're not doing this alone buddy! Let me lend you a hand" Shedletsky joined in, unsheathing his sword.

Two Time stayed back, listening Shedletsky's advice. They have a fast windup attack compared the other sentinels so it essencial for them to stay near the supports to keep them safe. They stayed near Dusekkar and Elliot while Builderman was near the sentry.

 

"Here goes nothing."

The door was immediately destroyed, revealing several tentacles peeking through. 

A faint purple glow can be seen through the shadows.. They were eyes.

Guest and Shedletsky could see it, but what caught them off guard is the scent. It smells like.. those kinds of flowers. 

The tentacles emerged and striked towards the two survivors, who quickly dodged.

"Looks like IT IS a new killer, Guest! You got any plans?" Shedletsky asked.

"We do our best to stall it either way. You with me?" Guest replied.

"Hell yeah." Shedletsky with his fighting spirit coming back to him.

Since the tentacles missed, it time for the killer to show up in person.

Azure emerged from the darkness and charged towards the two survivors with his clawed hands ready. But he doesn't attack with his hands. The tentacles are joing as well to pierce everything.

"Woah..! That killer is huge and hes literally buffed like you Guest-" Shedletsky's jaw dropped.

Guest felt a little nervous at this Killer's body type, it just means it could be strong.. and tanky.

"Just do your best alright?" Guest replied.

Guest moved forward to shield Shedletsky, blocking to take the hit.

Azure attempted to hit them but he was suprised the soldier was able to block his attack.

And what comes next?

"UUGHH.." Azure grunted. The noises coming out through his zipped mouth are muffled after taking the strong punch from Guest.

"He has a zipper mouth like him.." Shedletsky thought. Remembering 1x.

Azure just gets more aggressive after coming together, immediately trying to hit one of the survivors again, Shedletsky quickly dashed behind him to use his sword to swing at him.

The killer grunted in pain again.

"It seems they are not going down without a fight huh? I should have expected this." Azure thought. He slowly stood up, getting used to everything.

"Compared to Amarah, this one is very straightforward" Shedletsky added.

Azure used his tentacles to pierce the both of them, but also to ruin their openings.

From the distance, the other survivors noticed Shedletsky and Guest quick movement. Noob was creeped out the most because of how fast that killer is and worst.. tentacles? Seeing Shedletsky and Guest able to keep up is admirable but they are not a fighter like them.

"Is it me or this smell.. is coming from the killer?" Elliot asked.

"It does. It smells like a flower." Dusekkar replied. 

As the two continued to discuss, Two Time was the one who is.. nervous.

The scent is familliar, it been so long.

"I think those are nightshades.. the scent is familliar" Two Time spoke, catching Dusekkar and Elliot's attention.

"Now that you mention it.. It does. Remind me, aren't nightshades poisonous?" Dusekkar asked.

"Yeah.." Two Time replied.

"Not good. That killer might be capable of producing poison" Dusekkar quickly lifted his staff and shielded Shedletsky. The admin has no way to defend himself but the soldier does with his blocks.

 

"Step back!" Guest pushed Shedletsky to avoid an attack.

Their option is to run now after inflicting enough damage. Guest signaled the other survivors to make a run for it before they arrive to their location.

"Thats our cue! They're going to Builderman's sentry so scatter!" Elliot said while running away.

Dusekkar whistled to let Builderman know that he must leave this area.

"Two Time, keep an eye on Guest and Shedletsky in case they are in danger. We'll be fine from now on" Dusekkar said while running along with Builderman, leaving the cultist on their own.

 

Two Time locked eyes on the two survivors who is being chased. They decided to hide somewhere so they can sneak up to the killer.

Hes approaching. They must make it quick but.. something makes them not want to move.

Just why?

Is it because of how familliar the smell of nightshades are?

They were never there when Amarah was the killer in this map, so who is this killer exactly?

"I got this Guest! You go join the others, Two Time and I will take care of this for now" Shedletsky said. The soldier nodded in response and went after the other survivors to catch up to them.

The killer noticed the soldier going to the other way, but he focused on the admin which is exactly what Shedletsky is planning.

Two Time snapped back. They have to focus and not let the others down just yet. As they noticed Shedletsky made his way up to the sentry, the machine started to shoot as the killer was close enough.

"Grr.. This stupid machine." Azure angrily used his tendril to destroy the machine in one hit. It suprised Shedletsky as it takes two hits to take down the sentry. Except 1x's mass infection.

Shedletsky stood there as he watched Two Time emerging from the back to land a stab on Azure's back. Finding this the right cue to get away, Shedletsky fleed before the killer thinks about chasing him again before Two Time could reach him.

Azure tried to look around. Noticing the survivor have gotten away, he was irritated. "Maybe I underestimated them a little too much." The killer quickly noticed something.. someone was behind him. He quickly turned around and used his tentacles to attack right away.

Two Time realized they were found and quickly stepped back, putting their dagger back to focus on moving their feet away.

But..

After they seen the killer's face..

Azure paused as well as he laid his eyes on them.

"Two Time." Azure's voice was still muffled but he knew exactly who this cultist is.

But his lover doesn't look the same as he remembers.

Their hair grew a little longer, their expression is colder and their eyes.. that used to shine with brightness as if they had a life was completely replaced with dull and emptiness.

Despite the danger Two Time knows they are in, they can't help it but have a sense of familliarity with this killer. Why is he just so familliar? As if they knew him before? But of course they didn't let that thought get to them because seeing the killer's eyes, they are filled with anger.

Two Time crouched down to dodge the killer's arm swing attack and they quickly sprinted away. They was a fast runner for first few seconds.

"Don't you dare run away from me!" Azure chased after them, completing focused on them. Oh he just can't wait to give them a taste of their own medicine.

After a long running, he can hear the cultist panting.

They are running out of stamina.

Azure got more closer to Two Time and was ready to grab them. As he reached about to pull them by the scarf, he was quickly met with Shedletsky's sword who came out from the corner.

Zap!

Azure feels something weakening his movement speed. That must be the work of a wizard.

"You're another cultist aren't you?" The pumpkin admin spoke.

Azure turned to him, glaring at him.

What in the world does he mean by "cultist"? does he look like a cultist to him.

"I don't think he can answer your questions Matt! His mouth is zipped shut!" Shedletsky shouted from afar.

The survivors were more strategic this time. Continuously being jumped by the other survivors, all those attacks and debuffs.

Out of anger, no..

FURIOUSITY.

He opened his mouth to the point the zipper broke. He let out a loud screech that hurt some of the survivors ears.

"ENOUGH. IT TIME TO END IT ALL." Azure shouted, charging at the Guest to land a blow on him. Guest blocked the swing attack but a tentacle appeared behind him and pierced his shoulder.

Shedletsky wanted to help but so many tentacles are thrown at him trying to stab him.

Azure land another hit on Guest with his claws and the soldier quickly snapped by punching the killer. Breaking free.

The soldier coughed as he suddenly feels dizzy.

The poison.. the killer is poisonous..

"Guest please take this!" Elliot rushed to offer the soldier the pizza but a tentacle phased through quickly to stab Elliot right through his chest.

Guest turned aroud out of shock, seeing the killer grinning and giggling evily.

"What wrong? Can't protect them anymore?" Azure taunted.

Guest was still dizzy but hes still locked in. He tried to charge at the killer to push him away but Azure instantly grabbed him with one hand.

"I must admit, you're strong. But you're a complete nuissance so it time to get rid of you." Azure stabbed Guest with his tentacles multiple times. After the soldier died, he threw him away.

"Oh my god that mus've hurt.." Noob never thought there would be a killer relentlessly stabbing you over and over again.

The survivors quickly tried to scatter to another area near Builderman's dispenser.

Azure rushed after Builderman, realizing he was the source of building sentries.

He grabbed the survivor and slammed him on the wall.

"You let go of him!" Shedletsky attacked Azure but Azure knew better.

He dodged the sword and grabbed the admin by the neck.

"You look familliar. Are you in any relation with Swords Of Heights?" Azure asked.

"How did you know?" Shedletsky was suprised as this place was.. a very very long time ago.

"Just checking." Azure snappe the admin's neck and threw him away, turning his attention back to Builderman who tried to crawl away. Without mercy, Azure stabbed the survivor on the back with his tentacle.

"Four down. Now where did they go?" Azure carefully looked, then tried to sense them.

He can sense the other survivors but also THEM.

As much as he wants to go after Two Time, he must get the other survivors so that they don't continuously interrupt him. He chased after Two Time for who knows how long earlier and the survivors quickly jumped in meaning they will work together to survive.

But thats also means..

Two Time would still linger nearby to try and protect them.

"Two birds and one stone hm?"

 

 

 

"We lost four already.. that quick?!" Noob spoke.

"That killer took too many hits but acts like they were just scratches." Dusekkar said. "Two Time.. Do you know him?"

Two Time shook their head as a response.

"How so? He has the spawn symbol on his shirt like you do" Dusekkar asked again.

"I don't know either Dusekkar.. I have never seen him. I can't tell who he is." Two Time replied.

"Do you perhaps have a sense of familliarity with him?" Dusekkar asked.

"...Yes. But I can't tell who. Hes so.. familliar but I'm unable to tell who he is because of how monstrous he looks.." Two Time added.

They are unaware Azure was listening nearby.

"Aw. Flower can't remember me? Then I'll make them remember." 

"Uh oh..! crouch down!" Chance yelled out.

The three survivors crouched down so Chance could aim his gun at the killer.

He aimed at Azure's chest.. feeling this familliar spot.

The same spot a knife plunged into him.

Remembering this moment angered Azure. He grabbed a chair with his tentacles and threw them at the survivors.

Noob could not dodge one of them as it injured him. Chance wanted to help but the tentacles tried to stab him. He quickly backed away.

"Hang in there Noob!" Chance shouted.

"Don't risk your life on something that is dying." Azure stepped in throwing another chair towards Chance in which he dodged.

The killer has already killed Noob and changed his attention to Chance.

"Damn it!" The gambler cursed under his words and quickly pulled his gun. But this time, it didn't work.

"What wrong? Gun broken?" the killer continued to taunt as Chance's other option now is to run away. "It over now." as Azure was about to attack the gambler...

"Uuurghh!!" Azure grunted in pain as he felt a knife being pressed on his back.

"Save yourself!" Two Time shouted, urging Chance to make a run for it.

"TWO TIME. HOW DARE YOU.." Azure slowly turned around to glare at the cultist.

To Two Time's suprise, the killer knew their name.

"W-What.. How did you know my name.?" Two Time is supposed to run after the stab but.

Their body.. refused to move.

Why is this so familliar?

Could it be.. him?

But.. it doesn't make sense..

Azure is a kind person. One Two Time who likes to call him their blessing.

But it feels odd to remember him right now in moments like these. They missed him so much the guilt still lingers even if they were in happier moments with the others. They missed him so much they can't get over him.

"You really don't remember me huh? Then take a closer look." Azure held their chin up to meet up with his eyes.

Their eyes are mixed with fear and confusion.

...

Is this.. their lover?

"Azure..?" Two Time finally remembered. Even the touch from his hand holding their chin. It the same warmth as their lover.

Is this monster, really their lover?

"Long time no see. Feels good after betraying me huh?" Azure leaned closer while glaring at them. Doing his best to restrain his tentacles from killing them as he still needs answer from them.

"I-I.. please, listen I-" Two Time wanted to say something but Azure cut them off by throwing them on the floor.

He placed his leg on their stomach, pressing them.

"I trusted you. You were unique, different from everyone else... You were my world." Azure turned his head away after mentioning this. Still disgusted.

"I'm so sorry..." Two Time finally said it.

But Azure still holds that anger. "You think saying sorry is enough? undo everything?" He lifted them up to meet him face to face.

"No.. L-Let me explain.." Two Time begged. Still holding Azure's wrists that is about to choke them.

"You think I'll still trust you while you're still carrying that knife? Be my guest." Azure lifted his free hand up, ready to finish them off.

Two Time did not fight back. The only thought they had was..

They deserved it.

BOOM.

Azure instantly let Two Time go after a shot landed on him.

Chance came back to help Two Time and Dusekkar zapped at the killer to slow him down.

"Come on!" Chance yelled.

Azure screeched in anger watching Two Time get away from him.

Hes not done yet! Hes not done with them yet!

He must kill the other survivors immediately so he can get close to them. Enough with the distractions.

 

The survivors continued their usual rythm looping the killer.

"Listen! Whatever you're doing for the spawn.. it a lie! the Spawn god was never real!" Dusekkar shouted trying to convince the killer.

Infact it did get Azure's attention. But if the spawn god is not real, how is Azure alive then? 

"You cannot fool me magician." Azure replied.

"It true! If you know Amarah you would have noticed something is wrong immediately!" Dusekkar continued.

Azure hated how that survivor is right. Amarah was always off and shady compared the other citizens he used to live with back then when he was.. human.

He was able to notice the red flags and tells Two Time about it back then. Infact, his lover noticed it too and always reassures him that they'll check since they are the closest to Amarah.

But that was the past and it no longer matters.

"His crazed delusions is beyond comprehension and you know it! Both you and Two Time are being deceived into serving a god that does not exist!" Dusekkar added.

Azure is still not convinced. If there is no spawn god, how would he be resurrected? 

He would agree about Amarah being very insane but a god that never exist?

It hard to believe as he was told he received ITs blessing because of Two Time's ritual they performed on him.

 

Azure grabbed Chance throwing him at the wall. It was really painful the gambler passed out due to weakness.

Now two left.

Without wasting anymore time, Dusekkar was killed right away as Azure gotten even more impatient.

"Dusekkar!" Two Time yelled out.

"Don't give up..! You have to win this.." Dusekkar let out his last breath until the light inside his pumpkin faded.

Azure let out an evil laughter. Turning his gaze on his lover, slowly approaching them.

"Now it just you and me."

Two Time's wings emerged from their back since they are the last one alive. It caught Azure by suprise but also disgusted. They earned this form because he was sacrificed for them to earn this.

"A-Azure.." Two Time is still afraid. Afraid to fight their own lover. But they must be brave as their life is on the line.

"You won't do it." Azure said, still approaching them step by step.

"You wouldn't dare lay that dagger at me again because you love me." He added.

Hes not wrong. Two Time can't find the courage to use their dagger into stabbing Azure again. No.. They can't bring themselves into hurting him.

"Pathetic. Makes my job more easier." Azure was right in front of Two Time. He leaned down to see their face, that is now filled with tears.

"Awww. Feeling regret when I came back?" Azure taunted. "If I never came back, you'll still continue to live your sweet days pretending you never did anything wrong."

"Just face it. You never cared." Azure slowly reached his hand to hold their neck and finish them there. But that was interrupted when Two Time swiftly raised their hand to stop it.

Holding Azure's hand back, the killer was suprised their lover didn't give up yet. Their hand are smaller compared to his yet it had enough strength to stop him.

"I always cared." Two Time muttered. 

Azure didn't want to waste anymore time and used another way to kill Two Time but the cultist quickly found their way out into kicking Azure back and create a distance between them.

"You.." Azure mumbled.

"I always cared. You think I never grieved for your death?" Two Time spoke.

"You? grieving for me? like I'll believe that anymore." Azure replied. "You're just like everyone else in the end..! Taking advantage of anyone for your own gain! You won't fool me!" Azure threw multiple tentacles at them.

Two Time was great at timing their dodges. Infact, they know Azure is not used with his tentacles as it is his first time as the killer. So thats a bonus.

They want to get closer to Azure. To get him to listen.

Hard way it is.

"Is that all you got? You want revenge right?" Two Time stood their ground readying themselves as saying this will infact piss their lover off once more.

"You really got some nerves, nightshade!" Azure yelled while getting more aggressive with his attacks.

Two Time did take a few hits but they won't back down. Not to Azure. 

"I thought you would just be a coward and run away from all your problems! Pretending I am a nobody!" Azure shouted.

"I never viewed you as a nobody" Two Time replied. 

They honestly would run away but when it comes to Azure, despite the looming danger they chose to not abondon him. Not again. Two Time knows Azure very well. Despite how well hes known as an intelligent botanist with kind spirit, deep inside he does have his insecurities. 

And Two Time always held him close ensuring as much comfort to help boost his morales. Until messed up things happened in this cult leading them to break apart.

Azure was very rough with his attacks because of Two Time provoking him. But hes starting to run his breath out after the long chase. Exactly what Two Time was planning taking Guest's advice.

"Tire the killer then strike. It easier that way."

As Azure tried to take a deep breath, Two Time quickly pounced at him getting him to fall on the floor while they were sitting above him.

"What are you doing." Azure is confused with Two Time's intention. They are supposed to run yet they didn't.

Are they going to kill him..? He must get back up and not let this happen again quick.

"I never viewed you as a nobody, my blessing." Two Time spoke.

"Stop calling me that. Shut up." Azure growled.

"I really mean it. I... I know saying sorry is not enough but I want you to know.."

"I never forgave myself after that day." Two Time said.

"When Amarah told me about this.. I begged him for another way. I never wanted to do this until he told me that.. You would respawn. I was still afraid but Amarah is my caretaker.. and everything he says are right." they added.

"And you chose to believe him. Choosing him over me." Azure replied in anger.

"I know. It difficult to choose between family or anything else. But I hated to say I was lied to." Two Time spoke

"What?" Azure was confused.

"Amarah keeps telling me you will come back. I prayed harder and harder day by day, staying devoted as I can to get enough of ITs blessing.. just so that I can bring you back. But as time goes on.. I-I felt used instead." Two Time explained.

"No shit. Amarah brainwashed you and turned you like a hollow puppet. I see what that magician meant." Azure replied.

"What? What do you mean?" Two Time was confused.

"Of course you won't believe me because you care about your caretaker so much right? Or do you need me to help open that eyes of yours?" Azure sat up to get closer to their face.

Just what is Azure doing?

He can kill them right here.

He can end them there and take the win.

So why is he sitting there listening to them? Didn't he swear to make them feel his pain? All those agony he had to endure?

They are right there. Their guard is down, vulnerable and weak.

But deeply, he missed this.

He missed.. being close to them. Feeling their warmth.

Hearing their soothing voice.

Hes debating whether to kill them or not.

"I'm so sorry Azure." Two Time held his hand up to give it a kiss on his knuckles gently. "You have every right to hate me and maybe never forgive me for I have committed the worst sin. It not your fault for not wanting to trust me again." Two Time said.

"..I was.. a deluded fool. Living in complete ignorance that I have murdered you. Thinking you will come back to me one day but so much happened recently after seeing Amarah again. The conversations I had with the divine pumpkin." Two Time couldn't hold the tears anymore.

"If it makes you feel better.. You can kill me right there, my blessing. I wish to atone." Two Time moved Azure's hand to their chest pointing at their heart. "Show me the pain you felt.. So I can understand you."

"So that..."

"We would be even."

...

Azure's eyes widdened.

He expected so much fight from them. Just to live and get away from him. Running away from their problems like most people do.

But Two Time didn't. He misunderstood them so badly.

They have a point either way, it hard to forgive someone who betrayed you without a second thought. 

10 seconds...

Despite he has the chance..

He slowly held their chin with his hand to pull them closer. Gently pressing his lips with theirs.

It been so long since they've done this. That tenderness..

Two Time was suprised with Azure's response. Not wanting to question it, they accepted it. It not the same sweet kiss they always had back then because of Azure's zippers. But Azure still is satisfied that Two Time's lips were still soft.

They parted slowly, locking eyes with one another.

"Next time. I won't hesitate to kill you. So start running if you can." Azure went straightforward.

"I guess I'm down playing tag. I'll look forward into seeing you again, my blessing." Two Time smiled. The real smile that only Azure can make them reveal. 

"Whatever.." Azure turned away. Two Time can tell he was blushing a little and refuse to admit it but that didn't matter.

 

The guilt may reside but..

A wound can still be healed and it takes time.

"Goodbye, My Nightshade." the last thing Two Time heard before being sent back to the chair.

 

Survivors win!

 

Notes:

Azure coming back to the cabin with a hidden satisfied and angry mixed expression
"Why do I hear boss music?"

Amarah in the shadows glaring the hell out of Azure:

Chapter 7: The Aftermath

Summary:

Aftermath of the round!

Two Time having a talk with the admins

and

Azure vs The angry single dad

(Was absent for awhile because family comes first!)
(No beta read sooo expect typos)

Notes:

Guys hear me out about Two Time now viewing Dusekkar like a father figure because he helped them a lot to wake up to reality and now wanting to keep him safe more than before now in rounds

Two Time took a deep breath. Finally taking a break.

Oh what just happened? They forgot everything else existed after that kiss.

 

But one thing that bothers them more is.. the state that Azure is in... 
Is this the so called "rebirth" their god promised?

Does pain have to come with it?

... They really want answers now. They don't want to be lied to no more. Their only choice is to wait a round where Amarah is the killer.

Their mentor never tells the full story. Something is not right anymore.

Amarah knew Azure was here and he refused to speak about him. Two Time finally noticed. Amarah's gentle tone switches to tense whenever Azure was brung up as if.. he dislikes him?

But why? Amarah never questioned them when they and Azure started dating.
Was it just he wants them to be happy without ruining it for them..

... Or he planned something?

"What do you see in him?" is a question they usually hear from Amarah. 

 

Two Time snapped back to reality after noticing Dusekkar sitting beside them on the couch.

"Well? Did you figure out who that killer was?" he said.

Two Time don't know how to answer. But it best to be honest than hiding it now. 

"His name is Azurewrath. Hes my partner.." Two Time replied.

Dusekkar don't know what to say next. He dealt the same thing as Jane Doe.

"So you did have a friend back then huh? what were you two working on?" Chance asked.

"They meant as in lovers, Chance." Dusekkar quickly corrected.

"Ohh- WHAT" Chance was suprised. "So that killer was your boyfriend? He was one big muscular guy there like tanky as Guest!"

"Yeah.. and now hes.. a danger." Two Time had a frowned look.

Dusekkar looked at Chance telling him to give Two Time and him a moment. He wants to share a few words with them.

After Chance left, Two Time decided to talk first.

 

"Hey.. Dusekkar?" Two Time spoke which still suprises the pumpkin admin that they started using his name. They always called him the "Divine Pumpkin" and speaks to him very formerly. 

"Do the Spawn god... even exist?"

...

"Two Time. Thats what I wanted to tell you for so long." Dusekkar was hesitant on how to put it.

"That religion you told us about before. How you even mentioned performing rituals.. That is not how religions works." Dusekkar replied. Two Time didn't say anything and continued to listen, hoping for an answer.

"No. Your god is not real. You were apart of a dangerous organization known as a Cult. It purpose is to dominate their members through psychological manipulation as well as pressuring them." Dusekkar explained.

"Not.. real?.. But.." Two Time was at loss of words.

Was Azure's sacrifice.. for nothing?

But..

They and Azure received a second life! both of them! So why..?

"Was there a leader? Can you tell me who it was?" Dusekkar asked.

"Its.. Amarah. My caretaker" Two Time replied.

"Figured. Was there a time you wished to go somewhere far away from home to explore?" The pumpkin admin asked.

"Yes.. I asked him about that and he told me that its dangerous and I'm not allowed to go anywhere this far. Hes quite a strict person towards me but also to the other members who were also my neighbours." Two Time explained.

"Yep.. that is a cult activity. Your mentor been trying to isolate you and everyone from the rest of the society." Shedletsky joined in after hearing what the topic is all about.

"T-Then.. all these rituals they've done.. was for nothing?" Two Time was trembling.

"Hey calm down. Can you tell us more about this ritual?" Shedletsky asked.

"We.. receive a dagger. And then use it to offer.. either our blood or.. someone." Two Time replied.

"Ohh dear. Poor kid." Shedletsky's eyes widdened. "Thats so messed up. I never took cults that serious."

Both of the admins noticed Two Time cover their face as if hiding themselves from crying.

No..

It can't be..

All that promise..

All that pressure..

And the life of their lover..

Was all a lie?

"Two Time.. seeing that you were carrying a dagger did you.. 'sacrifice' someone?" Shedletsky knew he was on a much more personal subject. Dusekkar looked at him thinking it too personal to ask them this.

"I never wanted to do it. I never wanted to do it.. I never wanted to do it..!" Two Time cried.

"Hey, hey-" Shedletsky tried to comfort them.

"I killed my lover..! I had no other option after Amarah told me he was chosen.. I'm such a fool!" Two Time angrily sobbed. The immense guilt and shame they have to endure.

"You what.." Dusekkar was speechless. At least that explains why the killer from last round was angry. Can he blame him for coming back for revenge? 

"I begged for another way.. I was told he would respawn.." Two Time added.

"Unbelieveable. They manipulated Two Time into killing their lover making them think it a neccessary sacrifice." Shedletsky whispered to Dusekkar.

"At least I see why they look down upon their dagger so much." Dusekkar whispered back.

"I'm a murderer. I don't deserve pity." Two Time wiped their tears.

 

"No Two Time. You were unfortunate you had to live in a place filled with delusion and lies. You never could figure it out because.. Amarah is your caretaker which makes him your father figure, yes?" Dusekkar replied.

"Yeah. I don't think I can trust him anymore now.." Two Time crossed their arms. Their face has a hint of anger.

...

"Two Time.. how do you feel now?" Shedletsky asked.

"I feel.. overwhelmed.. I wish I could cut these murderous hands of mine." Two Time asked.

"Hey now let not resort to harming yourself! We.. knew for awhile but couldn't confirm and we didn't want to make it so difficult for you." Shedletsky replied.

"No. I appreciate you to help me open my eyes. I refuse to continue be a slave for something that is not real. I need.. time to think now." Two Time stood up and opened the door.

"Thank you.. Dusekkar and Shedletsky." They glanced at the admins one last time.

"Anytime.. If you still want to talk, Dusekkar and I are willing to hear you. It our job after all." Shedletsky smiled.

"I'll keep that in mind. Goodbye." Two Time closed the door and left the cabin.

 

"That cult really was hearthless. Even wanting Two Time to do the job themselves and now have to live up with guilt and blame." Dusekkar spoke.

"Well at least now we confirmed it a cult activity.. once we somehow find a way out of this dimension we should take care of that so no one else gets hurt or killed for something false." Shedletsky replied earning a nod from Dusekkar.

 

On the other side...

 

Azure found himself back in his cabin.

"What was I thinking? I was supposed to kill them not.." Azure still remembered every moment of it and growled in anger. It feels wrong to still miss the person you trusted so much and betrayed you right away.

But Azure couldn't have more alone time as he can feel an unwanted prescence behind him coming out of no where.

"I believe it did not go well huh? You lost." Amarah spoke with a tone of dissapointment.

Azure glared at the taller pale killer. 

"Oh right. You can't talk." Amarah helped unzip Azure's mouth to give him permission to speak. Which startled Azure.

Didn't he break it from his mouth last round? Why is it back to normal in his mouth?!

"When a round ends everyone will go back and have their body healed fully." Amarah explained.

Unbelieveable. Which means Azure gonna have to get used to this annoying zipper on his mouth.

"Let cut to the chase. You think I don't know what you were up to?" Azure spoke.

"Hmmm?" Amarah was curious.

"Our god is not real. Say it." Azure replied.

"I don't know what you're talking about. Blasphemy doesn't suit you." Amarah replied.

"You think I never noticed how you treated Two Time back in the real world?" Azure approached with a bothered expression.

"You lied to them. You manipulated them to strike that knife into me while you knew our god was not real. Did you want to get rid of me?" Azure glared at him.

"Oh Azure, none sense. Did you really forget everything I said? If our god was not real how would YOU and I be here." Amarah continued.

"Because this is CLEARLY not the work of OUR god! I overheard what the survivors said and care to tell me what this whole Spectre is? I had so much doubts but whatever that thing's power it was the ONE who brought us here instead of the Spawn. Open your eyes damn it!" Azure yelled.

Amarah just instead started grinning wildly. A crazed look but with the expression of hostility.

Azure stepped back knowing that he ticked Amarah off.

"Since you won't be convinced, fine." Amarah fixed his glasses.

"Yeah. I lied to Two Time. I wanted to get rid of you myself but I don't want to be viewed as a murderer to them, so.. I convinced them to do the job themselves by telling them both of you will earn the spawn's blessing and EVERYTHING will be fine." Amarah explained.

"You're sick. What did I even do." Azure asked.

"I wanted Two Time to be my successor but YOU." Amarah showed his true colors towards Azure, stepping forward angrily towards the other. "YOU WERE HOLDING THEM BACK." 

"The thought of you taking away my student icks so much. I wanted to help them ascend into something GREATER, DIVINE and anything above! I wanted to make them BETTER with so much worth than some lowly botanist who always talks about flowers." Amarah added.

"You're a mad man Amarah. You were planning to kill them later once they finally succeed your expectations enough?!" Azure even was offended because he took an important role to also create herbs for the.. now revealed to be a cult.

"You.. You treated them like some kind of puppet for you to control.. not their own person.." Azure added. 

So unbelievable. 

Azure thought Amarah could be trusted because of how Two Time describes their caretaker positively.

But it turns out.. they were deceived as much as he was.

Is it still right to feel angry towards them?

Azure knows what cults basically are but he never realized he was apart of one. And now knowing he used to work one annoys him further. Had he realized sooner.. He could have saved them.

Asked them to run away from this place and go somewhere else more safer. At least away from Amarah.

But that never could happen. The cults were good to cover their tracks to paint as in "A safe village with friendly neighbours".

Azure's mouth was zipped back right away.

"Of course not. I'm only helping what's right for them and for our lord." Amarah finally replied.

Bullshit.

And I bet Two Time wasn't your first victim either, you sick man.

Amarah left Azure on his own. He knew Amarah wouldn't want to spend another more minutes with him knowing how much he dislikes him.

Now what? 

How can he.. get out of this.. dimension?

His conversation with Amarah only made him more worried for Two Time.

There is no way Amarah can still get his hand on them right? They are safe with the other survivors right?

So many questions leaves him more worried.

"Maybe there actually was more about that night Two Time.. You never wanted to offer me to the altar and you.. did the job yourself and buried me.. in my favorite field.." Azure finally understands.

Hes no longer wrathful towards Two Time for what they've done.

But to Amarah.

Their poor nightshade was very vulnerable whenever they are around him. Never could figure out their own caretaker was a true monster.

Does Amarah even care?

The least he could do now is follow the game now. 

The so called "second life" He and Two Time were both deceived into.

But at least.. they are going through this together now.

No longer far away from each other.

 

...

 

"Maybe I can start my garden here.. This'll help relax my mind." Azure thought, standing up.

 

Notes:

Who wins the dad competition

Dusekkar or Amarah?

Chapter 8: Final

Summary:

Can Amarah still convince Two Time to join him this time?

Notes:

Thus concludes of the fun Amarah as the killer AU
The final chapter is pretty short and quite buns but there is no information how you can escape the Spectre's realm which would be cool to add!

Thanks to all who enjoyed this fanfic

Several rounds has passed now.

It sure do get boring gardening alone.

...

Azure forgets that hes one his own. Whenever some fun flower fact came up to his mind he gets excited and turn his face just to see no one is here.

"Right. Two Time's no longer there anymore." Azure realized before going back to tending to the seeds, placing them inside the dirt.

 As fun it was to be a gardener as well it still gets lonely. Two Time always keeps him company to discuss some things or talk about things together, or listen to Azure talking about flowers all day long that Two Time would listen to attentively.

He kinda miss this moment.

After minutes, a new round has begun. And it not him this time despite how long it has been since he was the killer last time.

And this round's killer is...

...

"Damn it. Of all people.." Azure cursed.

Azure noticed there is a path in the forest.. He was curious where it might lead to..

 

During the game.

 

..!

"Amarah is the killer in this round.." Two Time grew nervous. Facing their mentor once again.

They could do the generators but they'll leave that work for somebody else. They need to be available to help their teammates in need just in case since they carry a weapon.

But on the way, there were strings everywhere that slows people down who crosses it.. Amarah's traps once more.

This is not gonna go well. It's already worse when it Amarah. Two Time used their dagger to cuz the strings off, at least keep it out of the way.

 

"ughh.. I hate how sticky they are as soon I set my foot here.." Two Time groaned while pulling their feet from the web. "I have to rejoin the others but how? So many of his traps."

Two Time tried to find another route. Usually there isn't always dead ends in every map.

...

"They are going to right where I wanted. Away from the other survivors where no one could hear them call for help. I made sure everything is blocked as well so this will be a piece of cake."

Two Time was still wary. They can feel someone is watching them and they are used to that feeling.

He found them didn't he? They didn't hear any screamings or shoutings from their teammates which means Amarah is after them first.

They decided to run since now it got intense. 

"How many paths are filled with webs and traps? He couldn't have placed it in.. every path.." Two Time was getting more worried. It like.. they are isolated from seeing their teammates. Their dagger could do the trick but they'll risk getting caught.

Two Time flinched after hearing footsteps. A footstep that does not belong their teammates.

"Damn it.. Damn it.. Go away.. Please. Go away." Two Time began to run in hopes of being out of his line of sight and finding a place to hide. But unfortunately, their luck wasn't on their side as they ended up at a dead end.

"I need to go back-" Two Time paused after turning behind.

There he is. Their mentor. Standing right in front of them.

Two Time quickly pulled their dagger. Ready to fight if they have to.

"Two Time.. You still believe me right?"

Two Time did not respond. They only focused on the killer that if he ever moves an inch they'll act right away.

"My child. Is this really the path you will take? Leave me behind?" Amarah added.

"Stop." Two Time finally spoke. "Enough. Enough of your lies." 

Amarah stared blankly at them.

"Just why.. Why did you lie to me?" Two Time asked.

Amarah continued to stare, deciding to take one step forward.

Two Time pointed their dagger at Amarah once more, right on his throat.

"Answer me!" Two Time yelled.

Amarah poked his finger at the finger to push it away slowly, staring at his student.

"Then listen closely Two Time. I will only say it once." Amarah smirked.

 

On the other side...

"God.. so many webs around this area.." Shedletsky was disgusted that it got on his sword too. 

"We have to push on.. Two Time might be here and the killer as well. I don't like the idea of them being with him of all people on their own." said Dusekkar.

Elliot suddenly feels uneasy but the protectivity hits.

"Please hurry.. I think they're hurt." Elliot spoke which alerts the other survivors to scatter. Elliot carefully listened in order to hear where Two Time is.

 

...

No sounds.. Why is it all quiet?

Did Two Time find a hiding spot? 

Or.. did something happen.?

The survivors continued to check until they all came accross together at the same main area. 

"No signs of them.. Where could they be?" Chance asked. 

The survivors were careful as they still watch each other's back.

That is until Chance heard a loud thud nearby. "Guys..! I hear something from there!"

More sounds of.. breaking.

They're here.

The sentinels rushed to check along with Dusekkar who wish to cast his magic to help his teammates.

As they arrived, Two Time was thrown by their mentor and landed next to them.

"Guh-" Two Time hit their back on the floor. They have some scratches and are bleeding.

Chance helped Two Time up carefully, the sentinels staring at the killer all together.

Amarah immediately shot his tentacles towards the sentinels in a way to seperate them away from Two Time. Once they get a bit far he pushed them out of the room right away and blocked it.

"Hey! Thats not fair!" Shedletsky shouted.

"We need to get these off and help them! They're awfully injured." Guest tried to remove the webs with his bare hands that repeatedly gets trapped but he have enough strength to pull it back.

"My offer still stands Two Time. Join me.." Amarah launched tentacles to pierce the survivors.

"Like hell I would!" Two Time stood up, refusing to back down.

"You can't defeat me. You're too weak." Amarah appeared behind them, giving them a kick that pushes them back.

"Face it. No one can rewrite their fate Two Time. You are fated to become one of us." Amarah added. 

Two Time tried to stand up once more but this time.. they collapsed.

Amarah knelt beside them, brushing their hair.

"You don't need to be in this weak mortal body anymore." Amarah spoke. "Besides, I'll even give you an opportunity to be with Azure once more."

What?

Amarah noticed Two Time flinch.

It's working. They are listening now.

"You miss Azure so much right? If you join me, you'll be able to see him all the time.. even get to spend time with him as well. You two will no longer have to be enemies if you can just be on the same team.. as us." Amarah added.

Two Time was hesitant. They do want to be with Azure but.. that costs.. something huge.

At the cost of their role as a survivor.

"You love him so much and I know there is no stopping you. So why turn down such an opportunity?" Amarah continued.

Two Time was still very hesitant. How can they tell if it a true or not? What if this time it.. not a lie anymore?

Amarah reached for their face to force them to look at him.

"So which will it be? Your teammates.. or that botanist." 

...

"Two Time! Wake up!" Elliot yelled. It got the cultist's attention looking behind them. Which irritates Amarah further as their student is no longer making eye contact with him.

"Hes not helping you! He wants to make you a killer!" Dusekkar yelled.

Two Time knows.. They know accepting Amarah's offer they'll become a killer and no longer a survivor. But they want to see Azure badly.

They feel.. guilty for not thinking to put him first over everything for once.

"Don't start taking back what you said! You said you refuse to be treated like a puppet!" Dusekkar continued to shout.

..!

Right. The Spawn.. it all a hoax.

For all their life, Amarah never told them a single truth. Not once.

"Hey Amarah.." Two Time spoke, catching their mentor's attention.

"This is for Azure!" They stabbed on Amarah's eye on his forehead. Giving him immense pain.

"AAarrghhh..!" Amarah screeched, pushing Two Time back injuring them badly.

The survivors finally can interfere to attack the killer.

"Hey, Hey.. Two Time, stay with me.." Elliot held them on his shoulder while holding a slice of pizza, helping them eat.

Two Time instead rejected it, pushing it back.

"I won't make it Elliot.. Save it for them." Two Time replied.

"Don't say that Two Time. Just one bite and you'll be okay.." Elliot continued to try and help them but he no longer could feel their heart beat anymore.

"Dammit.." Elliot cursed while carefully laying his teammate on the floor.

 

Two Time couldn't make it in the round and was teleported back to the cabin.

"At least I landed that dagger stab. Worth it anyways." They thought.

...

Why does being in the cabin now is more eerie than being in the rounds? Two Time sat up feeling a new prescence is.. inside.

"BEEEEEP! Intruder!!" The robot was startled while pointing at Two Time.

No.. It wasn't pointing at Two Time..

Two Time was quickly snatched by a tentacle, taking them outside of the cabin and dragged to the forest.

Out of panic they tried to grab something in order to not get dragged away but it was futile. They started getting too far from the cabin.

They think whatever was pulling them is just gonna kill them right away since anything that is outside of the cabin wants to harm you. But all they were greeted with was.. a hug?

They can feel huge arms wrapped around them.

"That warmth..!" Two Time remembered.

"Azure? How?" Two Time was suprised.

All Azure could do is stare at Two Time in silence. His mouth is zipped and can't talk.

Unless..

Azure pointed at his mouth, asking Two Time to help unzip it for him.

Two Time carefully moved the zipper hoping it doesn't hurt him. They quickly unzipped it after Azure reassured them that hes fine.

"Finally.. I can talk again.." Azure feels relieved. "Judging by how the round is still going and you're here.. He killed you, didn't he?" 

"Yeah. He got mad when I stabbed his eye" Two Time replied.

"Serves him right. I hope it will hurt a lot for the rest of the round." Azure added.

Silence hits them a little until Azure held them to sit beside him.

"I'm still sorry." Two Time spoke.

"No. I'm sorry for not realizing it sooner." Azure interrupted which made the other confused. Azure explained Amarah's true intention towards Two Time.

How he plans to sacrifice them later once they have all the requirements.

"Thank god.. I turned down his offer and never accepted it.." Two Time was relieved after knowing what would truly happen if they accepted the 'offer'.

"So I guess we are trapped here. Endless cycle of death and respawning and on repeat." Azure wasn't used to this yet.

"...It is frustrating that this is our life now but.. I still find it comforting knowing that you are here.." Two Time leaned on his chest while hugging him.

They're not wrong. Azure feels a lot better with them by his side too. 

The round still has not ended.

"So uhm... I learned a few more things about certain flowers I'd like to share with you." Azure spoke.

"Can we talk about marigolds?" Two Time shifted comfortably.

"Your favorites? I don't mind. There is more about these flowers afte all" Azure replied.

 

Time was lost while the two were enjoying the conversation. Two Time been playing with Azure's big hands and his fingers, studying his new body.

"Oh and can you do me a favor?" 

Two Time looked at the taller monster.

"Tell that friend of yours who.. wears shades to tone it down. He wants to take my hat." Azure replied which made Two Time chuckle.

The round finally ended and it was announced that Amarah lost the round. It brings Azure so much smile that Amarah is not anyone perfect.

But since the round ended.. they can't stay together here more longer as there is more next rounds.

"Well see you again when you are the killer in one of these rounds." Two Time spoke.

"Uh huh." Azure replied. He noticed they were being watched and noticed a pumpkin head along with another admin watching them afar.

"Actually." Azure interrupted, grabbing Two Time.

"I'm still gonna keep you. You can be teleported anyways so you're staying with me." Azure lifted them up.

"Hey..! But I have to go back!" Two Time replied while trying to get off.

"Not without my permission. You're not going anywhere." Azure was instead getting away from the cabin.

"Azure!" Two Time yelled.

...

"I don't think their boyfriend likes us Matt" Shedletsky spoke.

"It easy to be worried but I guess.. He has no reason to hurt them so they'll be fine." Dusekkar replied.

"Good job on holding off your own thought! How did it go being the sole survivor against that killer?" Shedletsky was curious.

"He actually hated how close I was to Two Time or maybe helping them understand the truth. You can say he absolutely hated my guts and now he does even more now that I survivd." Dusekkar replied.

"And how does it feel being like a father?" Shedletsky taunted.

"Father? What are you on about?" Dusekkar was confused.

"You suddenly act fatherly towards Two Time giving them help and advices after everything. You even chose to use your magic on them more than us and I am not the only one who thinks that" Shedletsky explained.

"Ah damn." Dusekkar replied.

 

Notes:

Planning to make another fic that is Azuretime focused which is a different AU but maybe in like a oneshot way
Not forsaken related since there is a lot of azuretime fics like these

MAYBE I'll even make them freaky heheheh.

Good day everyone until next time

Notes:

Anyone fw manipulative Amarah teaming up with the Spectre? I sure do! (This is not canon to the Forsaken lore just a reminder since little is known about Amarah other than being TT's mentor.)

I'll write the next chapter after I have a good sleep see ya

It will be longer too
