ETHAN 4
MASTERLIST
warnings: mr.stranger creepy and violent ans unstable, kidnapper
The sudden bright flash woke him from his slumber, his eyes darting to the direction where the light had come from right above him, upon seeing that man again he immediately turned his head away and shut his eyes tightly, he swore his heart stopped the second he made brief eye contact with him. It felt like he couldn’t breathe, his heart rate had increased rapidly too, when he had glanced at him, his captor had been just staring right at him from right above him, far too close. He didn't want to look again, he wanted to pretend the man wasn't right there, but then he felt his face be gently caressed, it’d be soothing if it wasn’t for the situation, actually right now it was making him feel a thousand times worse.
A whimper slips from him, he wants to move, to stop that bastard from touching him, to move his hands away from his face. Yet when he tries to pull his hands under himself to push himself up, all he feels is a tug, along with soft clink of metal against metal, his hands are restrained to the headboard of the bed he’s on, wait when did he go to bed? His anxiety only keeps growing, he also feels his legs have been tied together by the ankles. Ethan hears the man speak at him, gentle reassurances, but he doesn’t care to listen, he's trying his hardest to not, he just wants him to go away never to return.
The hand that had been gently caressing his face has now assumed a rough hold of his lower face. He had clearly struck a nerve, he could tell from the tone of the man's voice as he spoke “I told you to look at me”. Hearing that made him squeeze his eyes shut harder, he heard an annoyed sigh, then felt the weight on the bed shift, as the man got onto the bed, Ethan could tell he was on his knees, one on each side of Ethan, then he felt the weight shift again slightly, he had been reaching for his right hand, Ethan figured after his wrist was roughly grabbed.
Ethan was far too terrified to look now, even if he knew it could possibly pacify his captor for the next two minutes before he gets a different idea again. The Rough hold on Ethan’s face was finally released, he would have felt relieved, if not for the fact the man was right there, he had no way to escape, and the rough hold on his injured hand’s wrist. His captor was silent, simply roughly holding Ethan from his wrist, as if he was waiting for something or hesitating. Then he felt the other’s right arm holding his index finger, he couldn’t tell why, wait no no. A rough tug, the unpleasant snapping sound and the pain, it hurts really bad. Next was his middle finger, the same rough tug, sound and pain, Ethan opens his tear filled eyes, then he pleads “please stop, please i’m sorry” but the man doesn't acknowledge him, he’s ignoring him now.
Ethan keeps pleading as the man now holds his ring finger, and starts bending it agonizingly slowly, Ethan screams, and begs “please stop, it hurts, please”. The man looks down at him with disdain “as if being ignored by you didn't hurt, you didn’t stop when i asked now did you” Ethan doesn’t understand, that's not the same at all what the fuck is wrong with this guy.
The man turns back to his hand “if you're really sorry Nikolai, just look here” Ethan’s gaze falls on his hand, and the man stares at him, as he quickly breaks his little finger, Ethan yells from the pain, the man gets off the bed and pulls out his phone. Ethan jumps from surprise at the sudden flash of the phone’s camera, what, what, what the hell, is he taking pictures after breaking 4 of his fingers. His captor gently holds his face towards the camera, and takes a few more photos. Ethan squirms, it hurts alot, his fingers..why he weeps, he's so scared he hates everything about this place, he doesn’t even know where he is.
His captor looks down at him, “you’re so cute when crying, you know?” then he continues “almost makes me feel a little bad for this..” Ethan shudders at the words, while the man speaks up once again “you said you were sorry, tell me for what”. Ethan swallows, he doesn’t want to apologize for anything to this madman, but he knows he’ll get hurt more if he wont.
Ethan tries to speak up but is interrupted by the other “look me in the eyes while you apologize”. Ethan shakily raises his gaze to meet his captor’s "I'm sorry, for, uh ignoring you, and not listening”. The man scoffs “oh so you’re not sorry for hurting me?”. Ethan panics “no,i mean of course i’m sorry for hurting you, please i’m sorry”. His captor walks closer to him, “oh you’re not sorry for the other things anymore?”Ethan whimpers and starts apologizing again,and again, and again. The man is getting visibly more annoyed each time and Ethan can’t figure out why, is he apologising wrong, forgetting something, not sounding sincere enough?
His captor pulls his hair towards himself, “mm i don’t think you’re actually sorry, you're only doing this so i'll stop right?” He pulls Ethan’s hair harder “Why won’t you say my name Nikolai, it’s really starting to piss me off”. This is all just too much for Ethan, he can’t, that's right he can’t.. And so he responds “i can’t, i-” the man interrupts him “what you forget it or something, you can’t remember? As if!” Ethan cries out" I don't even know who you are!! His captor’s expression is, Ethan can’t read it fully, it’s clear he’s absolutely furious but there’s something else too, disdain, sorrow.. Then his captor speaks in low tone “you’re clearly not ready to apologize, i’ll come back later again alright, and you better have a good apology by then Nikolai. And with that he turns and leaves the room, slamming the door behind him, Ethan can hear the lock click. He’s left alone, after a moment's silence he can’t help but to weep. It hurts so much, he’s so scared, eventually after a long while he passes out.
