The serpents den (Reader x Sir Pentious)

Chapter 8 Hell house

She was already pissed off but with a bit of online taunting from Pentious, you, the hundreds of eggs, and the 8 under your disguise you could practically see the bloodlust pooling out from each of her messages. She was being assaulted by all of your team including others on the underweb who thought it would be funny to join the little online fray. Her threats to kick his ass being met with fiery burns and sarcasm not only humiliating her further but also doubling to draw attention and followers to the serpent king. "Alright, power down and get into positions. 81 watch the surveillance cameras and tap the intercom if you see Cherri" Pentious hissed "and stay on high alert." Sure, enough the eggs quickly logged off and jumped off their computers taking position and hiding where ever they could squeeze themselves. Taking out the gun that Pentious had given you there was nothing more to do than wait for the inevitable shit show to go down "How long do you think it'll take before she strikes?" you asked as you flipped on and off the little laser sight. "It shouldn't be that long" he replied as he slithered out of the computer room "Her temper is usually short. I wouldn't be surprised if she was charging this way as we speak." Following behind him there wasn't much to do aside from walk around and make sure all the eggs were hidden away and out of sight. A few eggs stuck out like a sore thumb but with a little guidance soon they were out of sight and silently waiting for Pentious to give the order to attack. Though armed with a new gun you stuck close to Pentious, a few feet away to keep you both from being struck at the same time but close enough to be able to stay within sight and ear shot. Each one of his eyes darting around wildly as the silence ensued, the only noise coming from soft footsteps and the occasional slip from a hidden egg. It was almost torturous waiting for what would no doubt be a massive yolk bath, there wasn't a doubt that some of the little guys wouldn't make it out. The only eggs that were somewhat promised safety were the 8 that Pentious had allowed you to command and the egg watching the outside surveillance cameras. All pieces falling into play as the intercoms turned on and a single small tap played, that was the sign that Cherri was approaching the facility. Moving away from the walls Pentious slithered up the main staircase and stayed in open view while you moved over to the side of the room just far enough from the main door and the walls, an eye kept on the painting that held a hidden lever behind it. Seconds ticked by at a snail's pace, though not as agonizing as the moments you laid in a tub of your own blood it was enough to draw impatience and discomfort. At long last the silence ended. The blast of an explosion enough to make you jump but all other noise was hidden by the loud clatter as the door struck the ground. "Where are you, you cowardly snake!" that bitchy voice of hers seeming harsher as she stormed in, everything about her seemed far darker in nature. Though she dawned the same outfit as she had the night before she seemed to radiate in a cold bloodlust making claws and fangs seem larger and more menacing than before. Another bomb resting in her hand as that crimson eye of hers scanned for anything moving. "Oh, have you come back for another spanking? I'd be more than delighted to do it again~" despite the seriousness of the situation you couldn't help but grin, her face was almost as red as her eye from the amount of rage she was in. An animalistic screech left her as she threw the device and ran forward not even noticing you as she darted towards the staircase in front of her. Switching the safety off and pointing the little red dot at her back all hell broke loose with the pang of the laser like gun. A hiss escaping her as she fell forward onto the carpeted stairs, her blood tainting the crimson and gold coloring that laid below her "Now!" Pentious hissed out, the eggs jumped out of their hiding places, each one giving their own little war cry as they rushed the now bleeding girl. Darting towards the door a simple pull of a secret level let a wall of steal drop down and cover the once opened exit trapping her inside and keeping any would be assistance out. Despite the laser hole in her back she reached into her bag and grabbed another bomb throwing it at a section of the egg wave that drew near her. Yolk splattering the walls and carpet as another explosion went off, standing guard you watched as the eggs did their best to swarm her. There was nothing else that you could do as the fight ensued, taking another shot would more than likely kill an egg rather than hit her. The bois gave their war cries as they surrounded her, smacking her with their little tools each time she cracked one of them open. Pentious watching from the top of the stairs as Cherri thrashed and broke away, raising your gun once again an opportunity was there. Her crimson eye spotting you as you took aim "You again?!" the second laser missed its mark striking the wall behind her as she ripped out a dozen or so explosives. Your legs moved for you helping you dive behind the lingering furniture as she aimlessly threw her explosive, the ear-piercing blast letting a ringing cry out above the screaming but it wasn't as disorienting as the first time. Shaking away the dust and small bits of flooring and singed carpet you readied yourself for another attack. Poking your head out once again you were ready to take another shot only to see her now trying to run, the eggs and Pentious blocking off her escape paths leaving her stuck in the room. "This isn't right" she yelled out, taking aim once again you tried to go for the head she blinked furiously as the little laser scope ran across her eye. Grinning a new idea struck you as more eggs showed up and entered the room, this time as the eggs charged at her you kept aim trying to maneuver the little laser light into her eye. More eggs being able to land their strikes on her as she not only tried to fight wounded but with a cheeky little demon playing dirty from a distance. "This is what you get for running head first into enemy territory" Pentious hissed back, there was an almost malevolent smile on his face as he watched Cherri continue the struggle. "Get that bag off her!" you yelled out, thought you wanted to run in and punch the bitch with the others the thought of getting blown up again kept you away. She seemed to panic as the eggs started latching onto the bag at her side, the strap tearing with one lucky pull from a stray egg. A stray hit to the back of her head loosening her grip enough for three of the eggs to pull it from her hands, the look of panic on her face more than enough to let you know she was in trouble. Pentious quickly slithered past and grabbed the pink bomb bag tossing it into some far-off corner before turning his attention towards her. The eggs seemed to dive out of the way as the serpent king struck, in the blink of an eye he was on top of her coiling around her body and restraining her entirely. You were looking right at him and hardly able to keep track of such swift movements, no doubt that cherri didn't have a chance to run with the mess of eggs and a laser light in her eye. A gleeful hiss escaped Pentious as fangs sunk into her shoulder "Fuck! No! no! no! no, no, no... no..." her cries of panic dimming and drawing to silence. Her crimson eye drew to a close and her head fell to her shoulders after a few seconds, the fight was over leaving a mess of blood, a damaged door, and an out cold Cherri bomb. "Heh... hehe... Hahahaha! Ahahahaha!" his normally dorky laugh far darker and with the blood dripping down his face he looked noting less of a malevolent demon, hellbent on destruction and domination especially since he still had a strangle hold on the cyclops. "How I've longed for this moment! 14, 15, 19, and (Y/N)! follow me!" though somewhat scared by the darker tone you were now seeing you were curious to see what he was going to do to the bitch. Flipping the safety back on you and the other three eggs followed behind him as the rest of the eggs ran about trying to clean up their fallen brothers. With his tail still tightly wrapped around the girl he moved slower down the steps to the lower floor, past the mess of machines that created the eggs there was a smaller door tucked away. You never saw that door the first time you went down to the basement, following behind it was quickly apparent why it was hidden. A small hallway showed prison like doors, each one with a number label aside from the last one. They all had a basic lock aside from the last door at the end of the hall, the steel door requires a password to open and was someone what more spacious than the other cells. Two solid steel rods stuck out from the floor and all the way to the ceiling, each rod having two sets of chains designed to wrap around a creature's wrist and ankles. It looked like where a dungeon monster would be chained up but rather than house some freakishly large monstrosity the chains would hold the smaller demon. "Grab the restraints and gloves" he hissed, you didn't know what that meant but the eggs seemed to understand the order given. They darted outside the room as Pentious went to work quickly strapping the chains to the girls arms and wrists. Curiosity over taking the already weakening fear that you had held "So, what are you planning on doing" you asked "Well, with her out of the picture the citizens of her area will either grow panicked or fight among one another to take her spot. With all the chaos I'll be able to take her territory without any issue" he replied as he stepped back. He seemed to beam in delight at the sight of her chained up like she was "I mean what are you going to do to her?" you clarified, he looked like he was about to say something but stopped. You could see the wheels in his head turning as he seemed to think for a moment "did you not think this through?" you asked "I did, I was originally planning to torment her whenever I felt the need. A personal punching bag if you will" he explained. The eggs ran back into the room, one carrying iron like gloves while the other had a long line of white fabric in his hands, taking the items from the eggs he gagged the girl and put the gloves on over her crimson nails. "However, I know that this will get me some major street cred if I go public about this victory. The only question is, what would be most effective way to do so?" He turned back towards you making it more than apparent that it was you who was supposed to answer the question at hand. "That depends on how brutal you want to be" you replied as you walked over to the girl, the eggs were checking her pockets and searching for anything that might help her escape her prison. Eyes watched as the eggs checked her, they seemed to really like her torn attire and how it revealed pale flesh "I'm a demon, there is no such thing as being too brutal or going too far." A grimdark idea struck your thoughts as the eggs moved away from her "Tied up, gagged, dungeon..." you remembered earlier in the day how you thought it would be more effective to humiliate her rather than beat her and let her constantly regenerate. "Have you got something on your mind?" Pentious hissed softly, turning away from the girl you nodded and motioned for him and the eggs to follow you outside of the room. "I think I got an idea for what you can do... but i'm not entirely sure if you'd be up for it" you muttered quietly "Well what is it?" he seemed extremely interested in what you had on your mind especially since your voice was far quieter.
