A Pink Roses AU courtesy of DJG3N6 herself, where Fresh is a sadistic cannibal who eats his enemies. I was once disgusted and terrified of this idea, but it grew on me eventually (because I'm just as messed up as Jun, probably slightly less but still messed up) and I made fanart, as well as this oneshot when I was at school.

Don't worry, I'll try to start doing requests as soon as I finish one more thing. Well anyways, enjoy this short oneshot!

A pair of legs sped through the darkness of the hallway, running as fast as they could as if their life depended on it.

And it did. Tetra was trapped in this dark, pink maze of a tower, and hot on their tail was a lunatic pink demon of a man, whom they had just discovered as a bloodthirsty cannibal. Not long while ago, the pink demon nicknamed "Blixer" had taken over their homeland, Paradise, and Tetra, as one of the Guardians of Paradise, and their Guardian siblings had set off to stop him.

But if Tetra had known sooner that Blixer was a cannibal who tears his enemies to bloody pieces and/or ravenously eats them alive, they wouldn't have tried to stop him in the first place.

Now it was too late. They were trapped, separated from their siblings Lumina, Quin, and Pi, whom Tetra could only pray to the Tree of Life for their siblings' safety, and running hopelessly from the cannibal demon chasing after them. Deep down they knew it was a lost cause, but they had to try and escape SOMEHOW.

They gasped and panted breathlessly, tired legs screaming in protest, their lungs burning as they kept on speeding forward, tumbling down stairs and crashing lopsidedly into walls. And all they could hear other than their own rapid heartbeat rushing through their ears was Blixer's blood-curdling ringing laughter of triumph and sadistic glee.

"F-fuck!" they swore as they accidentally tripped and sprawled onto the pink marble floor, earning themself a nasty, burning scratch on their left knee. They felt like giving up; they considered lying there until Blixer caught up and captured them, but at the sound of Blixer's loud, ground-shaking, greedy footsteps, Tetra's fear (heavily mixed with determination) got the best of them and they continued to run.

"You can't run forever, Square!" came Blixer's taunting, jeering voice echoing from behind them. Tetra was shaking with terror, they really were, not just because of the fact that they were going to die a horrible, gruesome death as Blixer's next meal, but also because they were fearing for the lives of Lumina, Quin, and Pi. They were never going to admit it, but they loved their siblings, and they were never going to be able to live without them. If they were going to survive, of course. (And it was a big IF at this point.) Who knows what Blixer would do with the closest things to family that Tetra ever had? But they couldn't find them now; the scariest kind of Death was staring at them in the face, and all they could do now was postpone their inevitable fate, maybe even long enough to lure Blixer away from their siblings so the three could escape.

Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, they reached the tower's last floor. The dark pink mahogany double doors stretched from the floor up to the very ceiling itself, right at the edge of the hallway, inviting Tetra to come over and open them. The poor Square cried a trembling sigh of relief, thanking the Tree of Life for letting them reach this far. All the way as they limped as fast as they could towards the doors, great thunder rumbled outside as the storm rained relentlessly down on what-used-to-be-Paradise, and lightning crackled above in the dark clouds, illuminating the darkened hallway for a second. With shaking fingers, they wrapped their hands around the doorknobs, and desperately pushed them with all their remaining strength.

The doors did not budge.

Tetra gave them another desperate shake. Nothing.

Overwhelmed with panic, they ran towards the nearest window and tried ramming them with their shoulder, but it only resulted in giving themself a painful bruise while the glass remained curiously unscathed.

No. No no no no.

They did not want to end up becoming food.

Tetra turned around to find another way out, but it was too late. The demon they had dreaded to see the most rounded from the staircase at the far end of the hallway opposite of them, cackling that spine-chilling laugh that echoed across the room. His bared razor sharp teeth gleamed in the light as he laughed, and as Tetra stared at him, they could only imagine how painful it would be when those gleaming white fangs sank through their flesh, even though they were trying their hardest not to think about it. Overwhelmed with fear and heart racing like a mouse cornered by a vicious cat, they flattened their back against the vast locked doors, which stared down at them from up above pitilessly, the only barrier separating the poor blue Square from freedom and escape.

"S-stay away from me, you fucking monster!" Tetra yelled bravely at the demon who was approaching closer and closer every second. They were most definitely not dying a coward. "Take another step closer and I-I swear, I'll skin you the f-fuck alive!"

Blixer chuckled menacingly at the Square and the pathetic threats they were throwing at him, shaking his head. "I think you'll find that it's YOU who would be skinned alive." He smiled darkly. "And you know, I've always wondered how Trinity's children would taste like..."

"NO!" Tetra screamed, not even having a second to wonder who this Trinity person was, as Blixer made a sudden greedy lunge at them. They ducked and dodged out of the way, running as fast as they could away from the bloodthirsty demon.

But they had barely managed to run a couple of meters before they felt a terrible choking sensation around their throat and fell over as Blixer caught and pulled at one end of their scarf, which had been trailing behind them. Within a few seconds, Tetra was hauled up by the neck, clutched tightly by Blixer's iron-hard fingers, struggling and squirming helplessly in his grip and gasping for breath.

"Feisty," he mused, as Tetra launched a violent yet weak kick at his chest. "Don't worry, you'll die a nice painful death along with your three siblings..."

"Let... me... t-them... go..." Tetra wheezed, slowly losing consciousness as their air supply was completely off.

Blixer grinned a maniacal, sadistic grin, baring his sharp, pure white fangs, staring at Tetra with those crazed mismatched eyes, causing the young Square to go whiter than a sheep's fleece with terror. "Oh Square," he tsked as he started to walk away from the doors, "I warned you. Whoever dares to fight against me would quickly find themselves as my next meal..."

And then everything went black as the doomed Square lost consciousness.

oOo

The mighty storm started to disperse a few hours later. Barracuda sighed as she walked down the hallways, her beloved pet snake Equil draped around her shoulders as usual like a large, living pink scarf.

She was looking for Fresh, since he had disappeared a few hours ago. She was scared of her boss, no doubt, him being a sadistic cannibal and all that, but she had a report from a Corrupted. She was also wondering where the four heroes had went, worried that they might cause a ruckus on the tower again. She didn't know who won; Fresh, or the heroes? Or did the heroes flee? Who knows. But maybe Fresh knows, if she could find him of course.

She suddenly stopped in her tracks when she noticed something on the floor. It was a pool of blood, crimson and dark as ever. There was a blood track smeared all over the floor next to it, as if someone had dragged away the body. But nobody in the tower has red blood. Perhaps the four heroes didn't stand a chance after all.

But then she heard a noise. It sounded like loud slurping and smacking noises. It seemingly came from the door next to her. Knowing what Fresh likes to do, Barracuda was extremely reluctant to open the door, but there was a report she needed to deliver immediately, so she had no choice.

When she swung the door open, she immediately regretted her decision.

Because in the darkness of the room, Fresh was crouched atop a smaller figure, his mouth and front absolutely covered in blood. Guts splayed everywhere from the poor victim's open stomach, and from the fallen headphones' design lying in a pool of blood below the figure's head, horrified, she recognized it as Tetra's. Tetra's mouth was open in a silent scream, pathetic whimpers of pain occasionally slipping out, and their disabled arms drooped helplessly by their sides, gaping holes torn out of them. Barracuda couldn't help the terror rising in her chest and the bile in her throat when she looked at Tetra's dead-looking eyes, bloodshot and their pupils dilated, staring into nothingness as they suffered their slow and agonizing death. "Help," those eyes seemed to say. "H-help..."

Fresh lifted his head, his mouth disgustingly full of the Square's guts and dripping with blood, and he grinned sadistically at the sight of the petrified snake woman.

"Need anything, Barracuda, honey?" Fresh asked sweetly.

oOo

Too gorey or not gorey enough? Not too scary? Ah well I tried-

I'd post the illustration that sparked the inspiration for this oneshot, but I heard that Wattpad doesn't like images of cannibalism and people eating guts so there's that I guess. I don't want this thing to get flagged

Just go over to my Tumblr, @flurrywhipdraws, and you'll find the post titled "I warned you..."
