Sold: The UnderWorld (Book 5)

Hell Hole

Luna:

A crunching sound echoed through the silent forest as creatures moved about. My pace slowed gradually over time.

"I'm tired" I lied.

"Lazy bitch" Luke snapped.

"Shut it you bastard" Michael shot back at his brother. The two glated at each other. It was a wonder their eyeballs didn't dry out and shrivel up. I stopped walking, but Lucifer, Luke, and Michael continued walking. 'Yes!' I thought in glee as I jumped backwards. I jumped from tree branch to tree branch away from them. My sweet escape now in action. I laughed aloud once farther away.

"Going somewhere?" Michael said. He jumped into a tree branch ahead of me I stopped on one away from him.

"Michael I can not be with you. I belong here in the surface world" I explained.

"Too bad, you belong to me" he snapped. He jumped towards me, but I jumped to a higher brnach, and foreward. Michael pursued, but slower compared to my vampiric speed. He growled in frustration.

"Luna get back here, I don't want ti have to punish you" he called.

"You wouldn't have to if you'd just let me go or would come with me" I replied. He jumped to the ground, his speed steadily increasing. I jumped in the air to another tree branch when it there was a loud yell. Micharl smashed his fist into the tree causing it fall. I jumped to the falling branch, and quickly moved to another which was quickly up in flames. I collapsed to the ground. Michael picked me up by my neck and pulled something out. It was flashy and stained with something red. I inhaled deeply and knew it was blood, it was a knife.

"Heh, I love your face and body, and body, but your personality is too wild and active" Michael chuckled.

"Please Michael no!" I pleaded.

"Don't worry, it only pierces your soul, nothing painfull" Michael said with a wide grin. He thrust the blade foreward, but I caught his hand in an attempt to force it back.

"Michael your hurting me" I pleaded.

"Then quite resisting, so I don't have to" he ordered. His hand lit up with flames forcing me to let go. He let the metal weapon dive into my chest. My eyes widened in shock, and pain coursed through my body. No blood leaked from the wound, but as Michael pulled the weapon out it withdrew something. Something red was being pulled out by the blade. I gasped for breath, but no air would enter my lungs. Something yellow began to mix with the red cloud pulled out of my body. The red cloud struggled to sink back into my chest, but in the process the yellow cloud followed. I slumped forewards to my knees. My vision became disoriented and before I knew I was else where. I was in a room in front if a window. Outside was Michael, and... My own body. I watched my body move on its own.

"Thank you Michael, the transfer was successfull" another voice said through my lips.

"Perfect, Medussa. Is she submissive?" Michael asked.

"Her soul is still awake, but in time she'll sleep" Medusa spoke through my body. 'My soul what?' I thought. I looked at my body inside the room. I was transparent. I cried out in shock, 'Im just a soul!' I thought. I looked around, 'and this must be my subcouncious' I realized. I watched as Medusa let Michael pick up my body. She clung to him, and closed her eyes. A girl with blonde hair and snake-like eyes glared at me. 'You are Medusa?' I asked.

'I am, and I must say your body is quite pleasent to posess' she told me. 'Leave now!' I shouted at her, but she didn't even flinch. ' Your kind is really easy to take over. I'm going to live it up with Michael' she said. Her body faded out while I sat helpless to watch myself under her control follow Michael through a cave to what I assumed led to the underworld, and it did. I was no in the underworld.

After a ways of walking we reached another castle. The forest surrounded the place, and a large village sat a mile away. It was dark, and snowing at the momment. I was locked in a room once in the castle. 'Ugh, being a vampire is so disgusting. Being thirsty all the time' Medusa mentaly complained.

'It is not. It's just who I am, and if your going to posess my body deal with it' I shot back. Medusa looked in the mirror. My eyes were silver. 'Get out of my body. I don't beling here' I shouted. My body trembled, 'Never, you don't deserve it' Medusa yelled at me. One of my eyes turned blood red.

'Leave, you are not welcome' I told her. I felt as if I were floating, floating up when I gasped for air. I lifted my shaking hands to my chest, and to mh face. I could really feel my own skin; I was back. Though the posession was gone I could still feel Medusa's precense, but whatever. I kicked the door to my bedroom down, and peered out into the hallway. No one was around, and so I ran out. I didn't care if I escaped the underworld now I just wanted some fresh air. It smelled like death in the underworld.

I turned the corner where I ran into someone. I backed away, and braced myself for whomevers beating I would take.

"Luna? What's wrong?" Lady Arachne asked. I sighed,

"Nothing, I- I uh...." I mummbled with no good escuse. She sighed,

"Not use to the underworld. It's alright, I take it you just want some space. A bit of freedom" she guessed. I nodded my head.

"The door to the backyard is down that way" she said, pointing over her shoulder. I thanked her, and ran outside. Fresh air, and a free mind. Nothing felt better, but it wouldn't last, I knew that. Not when I was posessed, but eventually I will be free.
