'Being able to survive

Doesn't mean it was okay'

TW: Sexual assault

"Stop being stubborn!" Alex yelled. Sub was refusing to get bandaged. He said because he couldn't die there was no point. Alex was chasing him around as we continued our walk. We were still following the potion. It seemed to last a long time.

I heard a thud from behind me. I turned and saw Alex holding Sub down with his bottom hands. His other two were holding the bandages.

"Let go of me! I don't need it!" Sub yelled.

"Yes, you do!" Alex yelled back. I laughed and turned back to the others. A few minutes later, Sub was walking next to me, his wound covered. Alex looked proud of his work.

"We need to go to Sonocaea. The portal is on the other side of the kingdom. On the outskirts." Braden explained. Alex froze.

"Sonocaea? You mean the enemy of my kingdom?!" Alex blurted. He seemed worried. Sketch looked worried too. Another kingdom where he was treated terribly.

"I'm sorry, but we have to go through there in order to reach the portal." Braden sighed. Sketch continued walking. Alex stood close to him. The rest of us watched them the whole time. 

Soon, I saw a castle in the distance. Here we go.

We went through the streets. I felt all the eyes. Some of them were curious, some were angry.

Suddenly, a man grabbed Sketch's hand and pulled him away. The man put both of his arms around Sketch. We all turned to him. Sketch was struggling to get away from the man.

"Hey! Let him go!" I yelled. The man looked up at me and smiled.

"This yours huh? How much for one night?" The man said. A shiver went down my spine. I was really uncomfortable. I can't imagine how Sketch must feel right now. 

The man held Sketch closer to him. Sub started yelling at him. The two went back and forth. I noticed the man's bottom hand move.

It slipped under Sketch's pants.

Sketch let out a small yelp and I snapped. I lunged at the man and shoved him to the floor. The man let go of Sketch and he fell to the ground shaking. Sub ran over to Sketch while I yelled at the man. He stood up and glared at me.

"What are you doing, boy? You have no right to stand up to an adult like that! You could be charged with a crime for that!" The man called.

"What do you mean 'I have no right'?! You sexually assaulted my friend!" I argued. My fists clenched.

"Oh please! You can't sexually assault an object! Your friend has no rights! I can do whatever I want to him!" The man laughed. He looked over at Sketch and bit his lip. I wanted to throw up. Is this man serious?! Sketch buried his face in Sub chest. 

Braden stood in front of Sketch so the man couldn't see him anymore.

"You bitch! Leave him alone!" Braden called. The man got angrier.

"You kids have no manners or common sense! In case your blind eyes couldn't see it, your 'friend' is an object! Now step aside! I'll take him and leave." I felt like I was going to explode. This man is disgusting! I couldn't take it anymore. I punched the man in the face.

"Leave," I said sternly. The man glared at me again and stomped off. I sighed and turned to Sketch. His smile was still there.

"Are you okay?" I asked. Sketch nodded.

"Y-yeah..." He looked like he was shaking

"How are you still smiling?" Braden whispered.

"I'm forced to. My owner made it so can never stop smiling."

"Oh," I looked around.

"Uhm, guys. Where'd Alex go?!"
