Stronger than you believe

Request: hello! I was wondering whether you could do a story on Henry creel/001? I don’t really have much of an idea of what you could do but if it could be dark? Like maybe Henry helping the reader escape the lab after something happens? Thank you!

A/N: Omg Henry seriously has my heart. Absolutely! I hope this is what you were looking for. All the love, A xx

“You know you can do it…” his voice was soft and assuring as he looked at you, his slender fingers soothingly rubbing up and down your back your eyes focused fully on the empty can of coke sat on the table “I cant…” you whispered out “yes you can, y/n. You can.” Henry spoke confidently and you glared at the can, you had always struggled with your powers. Everyone else got it down so easily and you just struggled as if it was the hardest thing ever, as if you simply didn’t have any powers. You kept staring intently at the can breathing heavily, your hands trembling, the can starting to vibrate on the table “focus…” Henry whispered to you and you desperately tried to but the harder you tried the harder it became, your shoulders slumping as you fell back into the chair letting out a shaky breath “I seriously can’t one” you whined out and Henry, although wanting to convince you to try again knew you needed your strength and so simply nodded “okay. Don’t worry. You nearly got there… just need that slight more attention.” He assured as he flattened his palm against your back rubbing in soothing circles against your back trying to simply calm you down.

“Try her again” papa soon spoke up making Henry glance at the older man “but she’s tired she needs-“ “try her again.” Papa continued and Henry bit down on the inside of his cheek before nodding his head before turning back to you “you need to try again for me y/n… try your best… you can do this…” he whispered to you not wanting papa to be angry at you as he knew when papa didn’t see improvement in anyone he would expel of them or do even worse. You took a deep breath before narrowing your eyes as you glared at the can “you will do this y/n” papa spoke as he had took Henry’s position beside you, henry now stood up just behind you hands lightly folded in front of him as he watched silently. He wanted to stick up for you tell papa that you were struggling but papa wouldn’t care, if anything it would give him another reason to get rid of you and replace you. You clenched your jaw body starting to tremble as the crimson liquid began to trail out of your nose the more you tried, henry stayed silent watching as the can began to tremble but at the same pace of before, it just wasn’t going to work and Henry didn’t want you getting hurt or put in isolation and so Henry with ease rather quickly stuck his fingers out his hand remaining by his side hiding what he was doing before he did a twisting gesture watching as the can was crushed a delighted look forming on papas face “that’s my y/n… good job.” He stroked his hand over your forehead gently as he smiled at you “I’m so proud of you.” Papa whispered a soft smile on Henry’s lips his hands moving just behind his back as he watched, pride on his face, even if he had done it… he didn’t care. He wouldn’t take the credit for it because he knew he was there to help you. Not shame you. He was there to support you through it all.

“I know you did it” you whispered looking at Henry who was moving his chess piece across the board, he stayed silent lips remaining sealed as he simply hummed, eyes soon flicking to look at you “and it was worth it.” He said calmly and you gazed at him frustration lingering in your eyes “but…-“ “but nothing dear, I was helping you. Nothing more nothing less. We all need a helping hand sometimes.” He said simply. Henry craved safety outside of the lab, he wanted to escape… leave… but that just wasn’t plausible. “What would papa of done if I didn’t do it?” You soon asked making Henry freeze body tensing up slightly as he swallowed thickly, shaking his head, “that isn’t something to worry your head about.” He reminded calmly but you wanted to know. You needed to know… you gave him a silent look, remaining quiet- pain clear on your face. You had always felt safe in the lab but now you were aware that something more sinister was going on.

“Put you in isolation. Hurt you. Killed you. I don’t know.” He shook his head putting his head down, he couldn’t and wouldn’t let you get hurt. No way. “But papa wouldn’t do such a thing” you tried to deny it Henry’s reassuring eyes immediately telling you otherwise “he would. And you know it… you may not want to believe it. And that’s okay. I didn’t for a while, as well, not until he made the guards torture me for helping you when I wasn’t supposed to” he said and your eyes widened slightly “they hurt you?” You asked horrified and with a simple nod Henry remained silent, “No one’s safe in here. We’re all experiments. It’s been this way since I was young. We wake up… work… sleep… repeat. It’s a toxic cycle that won’t stop. And if you get killed then it really doesn’t matter, they can easily replace us. To them we’re all just numbers… look.” He paused knocking one of the chess pieces down “can you still play chess with one piece gone?” He asked looking at you expectantly, and you nodded your head “yeah… because there’s other pieces we can use.” You said as it started to settle in your mind wandering, breathing quickening slightly “we’re nothing to them y/n. We’re just numbers. Replaceable lab rats who have no point in life apart from being experimented on.” He said harshly but you knew it needed to be put to you in such a way that you would truly understand it. “I’m planning on leaving.” He whispered out eyes flicking to look at the cameras making sure they weren’t recording before he looked back down at you “join me?” He was planning on going alone but knowing what could happen to you without his supervision made him sick to the stomach. He needed to protect you.

And so later on that night once the lab went quiet you met Henry in the darkness, a small vent being the only thing you were capable of crawling through. “How will you go through?” You asked not wanting henry to leave you in anyway. “You need to go without me.” He urged but your eyes widened “no. No way. I’m not leaving without you.” You said and he stared at you silently eyes full of sadness “you have to. I promise I’ve got this handled.” You studied him confused “but you… you said you’d come with me.” You said watching as Henry easily manipulated the vents hatch to fall off, catching it in one of his large hands to stop any sound “I will. But you need to go first. Get out of here before it’s too late okay? I promise I’m going to be okay.” He then gently grabbed a hold of your hand bringing your hand up to his lips as he pressed a delicate kiss to your knuckles “trust me on this okay?” You took a deep breath before nodding… you could trust him… right? “But what if you get hurt henry? I don’t want you getting hurt! What if-“ he gently cupped your face in his hands bringing one of his hands up to press a finger against his lips “shh… I won’t… trust me. Hush. Just trust me… please.” He soothed calmly thumbs gently rubbing against your cheeks to try and comfort and reassure you.

After a little bit more of coaxing from Henry you finally agreed…

You had crawled out of the vent and to the safety of outside, staying curled up in the shadows knees pulled to your chest as you tried to calm your breathing… trying to stay calm… trying to simply breathe and not panic. You heard gunfire and shouting from in the building but tried to keep breathing at a normal pace simply praying Henry would be okay. And after what felt like ages alarms began to blare and you watched a tall figure run out of the building… Henry… his hand grabbed onto yours as he dragged you along the path “are you okay?” He asked whilst running, but he was quiet nonetheless and you nodded your head, his fingers intertwined with yours as he continued dragging you through the woods, sounds of footsteps and yelling just behind you along with gunfire making you panic. You had betrayed everyone… papa… your friends… the staff… everyone and the more you thought about it the more weak you became. Your bottom lip began to tremble your eyesight blurring as your feet began to drag, legs weakening and Henry in one last final attempt to get the both of you to safety lifted you up into his embrace, holding you so your arms were wrapped around his neck, legs around his waist as he carried you swiftly.

He was covered in blood and you could see the slight crimson liquid on him “is… is this your blood?” You whispered fearfully but he didn’t respond, focusing on getting you and him to safety but eventually once in a shielded safe haven, it was a cabin- not much but it was somewhere… the roof was slightly moulded, moss growing into it clearly taken over by nature, it was a mess as well as if it had been lived in prior to them arriving but it would do until they found proper safety. He gently sat you down onto the couch as he crouched down just in front of you “it’s not my blood, no.” He assured calmly and your eyes filled with tears, you hated anyone being hurt and he quickly hushed you hand caressing against your cheek “why do you care for people who treated you like you were nothing?” He asked and you stared at him “because they are my family” you said but Henry shook his head “they’re make believe… trust me…. Do you trust me?” He asked holding his hands out for you to take and you gently did holding his hands as you gazed at him silently, “of course.” You nodded and he smiled a soft gentle smile before intertwining his fingers with yours, his free hand roaming up to caress against your cheek “you’re safe now. We’re free… You’re stronger than you believe y/n, you’ve joined me… we’re going to rule the earth together.” He said eyes shining with excitement and you gave him a questioning look “rule the earth?” You asked and he nodded,

“Rid the earth of all those nasty evil bad people… then we’ll make it our own… rule it… who’s to say we can’t solve cruelness, hm?” He tilted his head gently “this is our world… and we’re finally living in it… it’s time to take control over what is ours, right?” He asked compelling eyes gazing right into yours and a small smile tugged at your lips as you nodded, your hand coning up to rest against his cheek cupping his cheek in your palm…“You’re right….”

“Our world.”

Request: hi!! This is probably super weird but can you do more Jamie/ Henry/ Vecna/ Jamie characters.. like Jace too as well maybe? Idk if that’s your vibe but I’d adore it if you wrote more Jamie stuff pls! Tysm lovieee, have a good day!

A/N: thank you for the request!! Not weird at all lovely! I fucking love writing Jamie characters like AH so I’ll totally try doing some more, although I can’t promise that the characterisation will be great but hey ho. I hope this is okay! I’m attempting to not recycle ideas over and over so here’s a better version of something I’ve tried to write before… but shorter? Sorry LMAO, I’ve had like no motivation to write lately so that’s why it’s died down a lot… but… I hope this works? Much love, Amber xx

Trigger warnings: mention of blood, bodies, kinda fucked up things… it’s the laboratory we’re talking about so I’m sure you know how fucked up that place it… but still- just a warning- read at your own discretion!

“Come,”

The man’s voice echoed through the tunnels, slender fingers wrapped around your wrist as he practically dragged you with him. How did you get into this situation? Well… it was a lot to process. A massacre had occurred in Hawkins Laboratory. The few remaining doctors, and some orderlies, dressed in white scurried around- yelling at each other, whereas armed guards were searching the premise for the two escapees: Henry creel and Y/n Y/l/n or as everyone else knew you: 001 and 002. Two very dangerous individuals who were capable of mass murder. “One… we’re in danger.” Your shaky voice whispered out to him and his eyes flicked down to you, eyes dangerous pools of blue. The eyes that held so much trauma- hurt… absolute agony. Both of you had known such pain and it wasn’t fair. On either of you. Brenner had inflicted an impossibly cruel amount of pain onto you both… and to think he promised to take care of you. What a lie.

“Where are we supposed to-“ the man abruptly stopped, turning to look at you, you nearly plummeting straight into his chest but his large hands resting upon your shoulders forced you to come to an abrupt stop “two, do you trust me?” He stared deeply into your eyes his brows slightly furrowed but in the subtlest of ways the crease between both brows proving his concern for the situation but he wasn’t scared. He wasn’t worried. He was determined to get you both out of there… Brenner had stolen your lives away from you… ripping it away in such a cruel manner. Brainwashing you all. But that came to a stop now… Brenner wouldn’t be able to do that ever again. Or so henry hoped. You gawked at him unable to quite process his words “two I need an answer. Verbal. Do. You. Trust… me?” His eyes were intimidating, like a wild animal awaiting to pounce on its prey… but he just wanted to make sure he had made the right decision on you. Slowly your head began to nod, before a soft “yes.” Left your lips and the smallest and most subtlest of smiles tugged at his lips, the corners of his mouth quirking up, before he nodded “good.”

And then the both of your were off, once again, sprinting down the similar corridors. Over and over again. They were never ending… his long legs practically made it impossible for you to keep up, his grip on you tight so much so it stung slightly but it had nothing but good intentions: he wasn’t letting you fall behind. “We’re nearly there y/n. Nearly there.” The blonde assured and you nodded not uttering a word for your lungs were trying to focus on breathing all until that fear that once remained hidden started to creep up little by little, voices shouting, you made a split decision that you certainly regretted- you took a glance over your shoulder seeing about six guards, flashlights flicking up and down from how they were running and your eyes instantly widened in fear, your breath catching in your throat “come! We need to leave! Come!” Henry’s voice wavered slightly as he raised his voice at you, and you began sprinting, the guards yelling your names… or well- names was a joke- more like numbers. Because to them you were both nothing more than stupid numbers… how pathetically stupid. His breathing was heavy as he ran with you, his hand now on the middle of your back, forcing you to run faster- run in front of him so nothing could happen to you. It wasn’t something he showed often but it was care. Some type of care.

You both ran for your lives, running and running until eventually you both tumbled out of two double doors that lead to the darkness outside. The air was cold and winter-y, smelling of freshly fallen rain. “C’mon. We can’t stop.” He urged and you nodded immediately rushing in the direction of the woods that surrounded the laboratory. You wanted to try and take everything in but you physically couldn’t… it was all so much… your eyes were wide. Like a deer caught in headlights, you didn’t know how the hell to react. But then your eyes scanned along the grass and to multiple body bags that held one or more children… your stomach churned… they were already clearing out the bodies? Tears gleamed in your eyes and your breath hitched. Why did you care for them still? After all this time? You wished you knew… but you didn’t… it was uselessly pathetic. Your fearful eyes stared at the bodies of the lifeless children “two, we need to go.” His voice growled out clearly trying to stay quiet but you were stuck in a trance… they were only kids… they didn’t deserve it… Henry was desperate to leave but he also attempted to see why you were so effected. Sure it was traumatic… but they shouldn’t of mattered to you. He saw how they corrupted you. How they hurt you…. Why did you even give a damn? None of your tears should’ve been shed over them. You didn’t care for them, no, the care was simply all in your head. Nothing more nothing less. “They’re dead….” Your voice was strained, full of agony, “I know. Don’t look. They don’t matter.” His tone disregarded your emotions, there wasn’t any point in getting emotionally attached to dead people… they were gone. Time couldn’t be rewound. “Two,” his voice for your attention and you looked at him “you trust me… right?” There was that question again, even if he didn’t realise it, he was manipulating you. Manipulating you into going with him… into not caring. It was cruel. But he was saving you. He had saved you. He wasn’t letting you screw this up…

“I-“ “I know you do, 002. That’s why we’re leaving. Now. Come on.” He demanded guards shouting becoming clear and he nudged you forward as the two of you began rushing into the woods “where are we going to go?” You asked quietly but he didn’t respond, he just stayed quiet as you both tore through the woods attempting to find safety but safety didn’t exist. Safety was within the laboratory but Henry and you knew that wasn’t the truth… sure it had been beaten into your weary minds each and every day, suffering dark torture daily, but you both knew better than to trust the cruel man. Was this the beginning of the end? Was this finally when the pain would stop? You hoped so… and so the two fugitives walked for miles. Walking for minutes. Minutes that slowly turned into hours… and soon enough the darkness began to fade, the hue of the sunlight gleaming in the empty lifeless sky…. No birds flew… no nothing… it was simply a blue sky which reflected Henry’s eyes perfectly, his eyes were no longer a raging storm no…. His eyes were calm, empty, numb, peaceful… maybe his pain would stop now? But he knew that not to be true… they could pray and hope that everything would work out in the end but realistically it wouldn’t… because of one simple factor: two broken people couldn’t fix each other. If anything they made each other bleed further and that wasn’t good… but he had chosen to take you. To allow you to have freedom. Why he had spared your life he wasn’t sure… maybe it was for his own needs. Maybe he was greedy. Power hungry. Maybe he did want that power he never had. But now he had all the power in the world. He saw the courage in you. How capable you were. He wanted to use that… maybe it was ill intention but strength of two “freaks” so to speak was unmatchable. He wanted Brenner dead as much as you wanted him dead… and you both would kill him. Maybe not today… or tomorrow… or next week… but whenever it would happen it would be worth it.

—

Soon enough your legs were burning, your chest too, your lungs practically grasping on for dear life. “We’ve got to be careful. Cautious. Understood?” You nodded, following after him, as the both of you entered a rundown motel. It didn’t seem to be occupied at all. In fact it was completely empty. No one on the front desk… he had hit the jackpot but all at the same time that doubt haunted you both. What if it was nothing but a trap? You watched him grab a random key “second floor.” He muttered, and you nodded, you didn’t know why he had chosen the second floor but he did. He was being tactical. Clever… if they came searching they’d searching bottom to top. It would give you and Henry time to form an escape plan.

You wandered silently with him, until eventually coming to the room, watching him open the door- holding it open for you. There were two separate beds, small and tiny, but you didn’t care. You situated yourself on one of the beds before you laid down knowing you had to be rested… no words were spoken for a while. There wasn’t much to talk about. Sure you were overthinking and so was he but neither of you saw a reason to share that… “henry?” You muttered out… you didn’t hear any response yet you felt his piercing gaze on you, he was awaiting your next words, watching you “why didn’t you kill me?” The man was slightly taken aback by your words but his face barely flinched as he soon answered calmly “because you have potential.” Those words although good made your heart sink as you began to overthink his words… he hadn’t killed you simply because of your potential… your potential in killing. He knew what you could do… he wanted to see how much stronger you could get… but it left a bad taste in your mouth… was he using you? Was that it? He only made you leave with him just so he could use you? You stared at him eyes full of questions yet no question left your lips, instead a simple “okay” fell from your mouth before you turned over, back facing him and he found himself just staring at your back… the silence was comfortable yet a tension lingered in the air, like a thick thunder cloud… but you saw your worth. You were a number… simple… you were only still breathing just so you could be used… how dehumanising…

Part two coming soon x
