Prompt 3/10- Forced to choose
(check tags for tw/cws and lmk if I missed any!)
Celia was thrown across the room before she could think. She hit the wall at the other end of the room and crumpled to the ground, groaning in pain. The demon approached her. “F-fuck you..” Cecelia grunted through her now bleeding teeth. It let loose a deep, ragged growl. It took a lot to get the demon wound up like this, but Cecelia could be a lot, when she had to. “Fine.” It stormed towards her. “You want a choice?! You want your agency back?” Cecelia nodded, panting. “Well here it is!” it stomped vengefully around the place, not towards her, but…the other room. “No- wait!” Celia yelled, she tried to stand up, but something snapped agonizingly in her leg and she collapsed. “P-please! You dont have to do this!” “Apparently, I do.” It charged into Umber’s room like a hurricane and Cecelia could hear her frightened yells as the demon dragged her back by the collar. “Heres your choice. Either you stop being such a damned brat, or I use her body to beat you to a pulp.” Cecelia looked between Umber and the phantom. She tried to measure her options, but it was difficult to think over Umber’s terrified sobs. She really didnt want her to get hurt. “Fine! F-fine. Ill do it. Just…just let her go.” This was Celias “training”. Her torture. Her responsibility. She couldnt let Umber get hurt just because of her. It dropped Umber like a sack of bricks. “Wonderful.” And Celia felt the overwhelming pull of possession once more. It thumbed through her brain like putty and pulled her apart until everything solid dissolved into nothingness. She didnt fight it. Not this time. Once again, she was thrust out of her own mind in favor of the creature that held her hostage.
