The wall moved in around him. The mouths pulsating almost as one. Mucus and other substances fell onto Alfred's head from things yet to be seen.
"Hey, I uh… I probably don't taste pretty good y'know? I played competitive fps's before so I'm pretty darn salty…"
"(@/ja&kd0"
"Alright I get it. Being a horrific monstrosity can dampen one's spirit but you have to give humor a chance."
The abomination continued, unwavering, unaffected, and indifferent.
'Nope, completely unresponsive.'
Both Alfred and the light bug were moving back, towards the door. The bug's light stuttering. Every lapse in lumination the wall of flesh closed in.
"Wow… I… Well at least I'll die in a cool way. Bit better than a fricken bus crash."
With their back up to the door Alfred and the bug had only half a meter between them and their impending doom.
"There has to be a way to get out of this!'
*Sqctcch*
The bug backed up into Alfred and panicked. The bug climbed up Alfred's leg looking like a goalie pad.
'Oh… man that feels weird. I don't blame you buddy, we're in the same boat here.'
Finally running out of whatever it was that kept the light on, the bug shuddered and stopped glowing.
With nothing but darkness and the moist breath of the disgusting... things; Alfred finally started to panic.
"Why the heck would I be sent here just to die?! Y'know what, bring it you fricken inbred monstrosity!!!"
Feeling tendrils seize his legs Alfred was finally engulfed within the amalgam's innards.

As an ungodly cacophony blew out his eardrums and fried his head he finally fell unconscious.

*Sqctcch!!!*
Upon hearing the cries of the tiny glow bug Alfred once more awakens. Still within the cell he looks around and sees nothing but flesh and twisted ligaments surrounding him.
"What in th-"
"($;4WELCOME;$(⅔+ALFRED+#)!_($)"
Hearing the all too familiar demon spawns linguistics once more Alfred flinched looking up, into the massive unblinking eye faceted above him, hanging by optic nerves.
"Holy mackerel and bologna! This is… something…"
"+$)_ALFRED, YOU, ARE, PURE, UNTOUCHED, BY, HATRED, OR, THE, FILTH, OF, THESE, LANDS. WE, SAW, YOUR, PAST, THROUGH, YOUR, MIND, AND, KNOW, YOUR, TASK.-#(_"
"Wait! I cannot continue this conversation until I learn your name!"
"+$)_WE, ArE The ABANDONED, THE HATED, THE LOATHED, THE SCORNED, THE ONES THIS WORLD LOCKED AWAY OUT OF SHAME.(#)_"
"Soo… Phillip?"
";#)_ ... _(&+$"
"+# WE ARE PHILLIP, YOU ARE OUR SAVIOR, AND OUR DEVIL. YOU MUST KILL THE YOU WHICH HAS CAUSED OUR PAIN. THE ALFRED OF OUR WORLD MUST HAVE HIS LIFE TAKEN TO ALLOW PEACE TO ONCE MORE PERMEATE THESE LANDS.*$_"
"What do I do? How do I do it? Where do I go? You're suffering… so much. I… I... have to help you. Please, tell me."
"_GO TO THE CENTRE OF THE COMBS. FIND THE MAIN HIVE AND EXECUTE YOURSELF. YOU WERE GIVEN THE POWERS BY THE ANGEL WHO SENT YOU HERE._"
"What powers?"
"WE DO NOT KNOW, WE MERELY SAW WHAT YOU DID. NOW, WE WILL SHOW YOU OUR POWER."
The eye hanging above Alfred closed. The walls once more closed in on Alfred, albeit a tad more inviting this time around. Closing his eyes Alfred was immersed in the most disgusting flesh bath of his life, save for the last one it would've been traumatizing.
"When will I see you agai_? OH MY FLIPPING HECK IT'S IN MY MOUTH."
'Darn it. I shouldn't've mouthed off…'
