The Plague Doctor

Zayne x MC ❄️ Short fluff one shot

Her breath seized when she rounded the corner to see a tall figure cloaked in black, wearing a mask with a long beak and large glass eyes. The demonic image sent her hand flying to her holster, only to find that she wasn't wearing her gun. Of course she wasn't. She was in her own home, somewhere she was supposed to be safe. Her missing weapon only sent her further into fight mode as she prepared to take the intruder on in hand-to-hand combat.

It was only when a muffled voice came from behind the mask that her battle instincts finally died down.

"It's me," Zayne said in his usual calm voice.

"Holy shit..." she muttered under her breath. She let out a heavy exhale to shake the tension out of her body. "I thought you were a Wanderer or one of Sylus's bird men for a sec."

Zayne chuckled, his voice echoing inside the leather enclosure of the mask, making it sound deeper than usual. "Judging by your reaction, I assume this costume would be enough to scare the children in Pediatrics."

"You'd scare the parents too, I'm sure. You might even get a few complaints." She tilted her head as she examined his costume, poking his beak out of habit after her encounters with Mephisto and the twins.

"I'm only wearing this for the Halloween contest. Akso wants the staff to be in costume to raise patient morale."

"You'd win top prize with that." She flicked his beak gently before tilting her head again in curiosity. A sweet scent caught her attention. "Are you wearing perfume?"

Zayne lifted the mask over his head and placed it on the kitchen counter, revealing its contents.

"The beak of a plague doctor's mask was used to hold scented herbs, spices, and flowers. Their belief was that the diseases wouldn't reach them if they inhaled pleasant scents instead of 'bad air' thought to emanate from ill patients."

He took a few sprigs of lavender and a small rose out of the beak, holding them out to her.

"I wasn't expecting to get roses on Halloween," she said with a small laugh of disbelief.

"Don't get disappointed too quickly. Herbs and flowers aren't the only things that smell nice," he said, pulling out a small piece of chocolate from the mask.

He unwrapped it and held it out to her, but just as she reached out to take it, he popped it into his mouth, watching her reaction with eyes full of mischief.

"How old are you again?" she pouted.

"Relax, I have plenty for you too," he said, moving aside some roses to reveal a stash of chocolate inside the beak. "Judging by your reaction, I assume that trick would work on the children in Pediatrics as well."

Zayne's usual stoic expression broke into a smirk as she smacked him lightly on the arm.

Some people won't wake up until they reach their "Precipice" the question is: "Which One?"

Will it be the one 👆 that's out of control?

Or the one 👆 that forces them to take a different path?

Everyone has a different edge 👆

This 👆 is why they call it "The Great Awakening" because humanity finally sees reality in the truth and the light instead of the deceptive darkness. 🤔
