I'M NOT YOURS TO CONTROL Book 1 (TOH)

Chapter 7: Liess!!!

Hunter pov:

Lies, lies, LIES, all she spues is lies, she's just trying to trick me, but would that mean Darius would be lying to me too, Titan? I don't know anymore.

This is my fault, if I never failed that titan Dame mission none of this would have happened, what would belos think, the golden guard gone, now living at the owl house, no, they kidnapped me that would be the only reasonable thing, and I have to figure a way out, I have to get back to the castle and explain to belos what happened, he'll take me back and I can prove myself to him again.

I slowly got up, throwing the blanket that was on me on the ground, I shiveled in the cold, my back felt like I was getting stabbed with hundreds on tiny knives, and my legs felt like I was carrying thousands of pounds, I was in pain but I pushed through it,

as I quietly and steadily got up, I made my way to the door, opening it to be met with freedom, I closed the door quietly and ran, I ran as far as I could before falling, something had wrapped itself all over my legs, making me not be able to move, I looked around to find the copret,  just to be met with the bird demon,

" ohhh, a new friend, wait a sec, your the boy thoes guys brought here, what are you doing up you gotta go back to bed, hoot, hoot"

" nonoNO, LET ME GO YOU... bird, worm, demon, " I demanded, trying my best to get free, but to no avail,

" na huh, I made a promise to this house to keep all people safe in this house, and that includes you hoot hoot."

see now I know there keeping me captive, the worm thing tied himself to me and brought me back inside, plopping me back on the couch, " LUZZ, I BROUGHT YOU A FRIEND" hooty screamed out loud,

Luz came running out, seeing what all the commotion was,

" hooty, what happened?"

" Hoot, hoot, your friend tried to run off, but don't worry, I brought him back," luz sighed and thanked hooty before the worm thing went back outside, closing the door,

" Hunter, why did you try running off? You reopened some of your wounds, " luz asked, wanting an explanation,

" WELL, OFCORCE IM GOING TO TRY TO ESCAPE, you think I'm just gonna take your word that Darius brought me here for MY safety, NO, I DEMAND TO BE RELEASED" I screamed, as soon as I was done yelling all I felt was instant pain all over my back and stomach, I screamed while holding my stomach in pain,

" hunter, I can't heal all of this, I gotta give viney a call, let's hope she can re-heal all this" luz said, signaling to the blood that was now leaking out of the bandages, I was in too much pain to move and try to escape again, so I shook my head in agreement and waited for viney to arrive and fix me up, maybe I can ask her what happened and if I can acually believe what she tells me, and how i got here, I can trust viney, me and her were in the captain flying derby team, then I did kidnapped them but I fixed it and helped them escape, she wouldn't lie to me... I think

As we waited, luz kept her eyes on my the whole time, making sure I didn't run off, but that wasn't for long tho, we heard the door being knocked, luz quickly got up and went to go answer it, and was met with viney,

" Hey, luz, you texted," she asked

"Yes, yes, yes, thank you, Hunter reopened some of his wounds while trying to escape. He thinks he's being held hostage but HES NOTT," she yelled That last part, making sure I heard, they made there way to me, sitting down to see the damage, " oooo, this must hurt, I re-heal them and stitch them back, but hunter you have to stay still or there going to re-open and get infected" viney told me, I nodded and let her do her work,

As she was doing her work, luz got up and said she had to use the restroom and excused herself, leaving me and her by each other,

" hey, viney, I know I can ask you this without you lieing becausewell, you have no reasonto lie to me, did you see a darker person here with purple hair when you were here" I asked her hoping she would say no, " umm, yea, Darius guy, he looked like a mess, well everyone looked like a mess, luz included, also anotherguy was there to, his name was raine" she said, still healing my wounds,

" So, I'm not actually being held here, am I" coming with the realization that everything she might have told me was true

" No, you're not being held here. What I know that I can recall from this morning, I was called here, you were seriously hurt, I heald you as best as I could, and Darius and raine wanted you to stay here, I left after that," I sat there saying nothing else, I let her heal the rest of my opened cuts with no resistances, when luz came back, she was all down, she even re-stitched and re- banage my stomach and back, my back still felt a little sore but that was to be expected, I layed back down, feeling defeated, not knowing what to do anymore, luz and viney chatted for a bit before she left, telling me to behave and if she had to come back she would be rough re-healing me.

Luz sat back down across from me with a magazine she was reading. All she did was watch me and read it was pure torture. After an hour of that, the door opened, and Eda and that rat thing walked through the door with a big bag of stuff,

" Luzz, we're homee," Eda yelled, Luz got up and made her way to them, poking the bag that they brought, " whatcu have there?" Luz asked, curiosity written all over her face, " Oh, nothing special, just some stuff for the house and for you two, " she said while pointing to luz and me,

" So, anything happened while we were gone, and how long has the kid been up now?" Eda asked while walking twords Hunter, checking on him while Hunter swiped his hand to get Eda away, " Oh, we can discuss that over dinner, hehe,"
Luz said, obviously not wanting to talk about it in front of Hunter, " alright, kido, I'll go start dinner while you king and the kid stay in here, a sudden thought came to my head, I quickly grabbed edas arm, she turned around and looked at me, " I need to speak with Darius" I said in a demanding tone, I have questions that only he can answer, and also I just want to make sure hes okey too and if they are actually telling me the truth. " sighh, kid it's not the best time, but, I can send him a crow and tell him you request him, alright" eda asked, I shook my head and let go of her arm, she smiled and pat me on the head, then made her way to the kitchen, disappearing.

As luz and her rat thing played, I was on the couch, staring off into outerspace, I was now questioning everything I believed in, was it all a lie?, it can't be, belos told me the titan had big plans for me and that I was going to make a big difference, was that a lie, was belos lieing to me or is Darius? Is everyone I talk to a titan rat, only talking to me to convince me shit I don't want to?

I start hyperventilating, not being able to breath, the room was starting to spin, I couldn't tell what was real or not, everything was crashing all around me and I couldn't do anything about it, luz saw this by the corner on her eyes and quickly got up and ran to check on me, " hunter, HUNTER, EDA SOMETHING HAPPANING---" that all I heard before blacking out, I was in an never-ending nightmare that I desperately couldn't escape from, all my struggles was for nothing, I can never escape this, I'm always just going to be BROKEN.
