Ash's pov:
the night spends in that castle affected all of us differently but still.
Ashton freaked out if he saw something similar twice, thinking he was still in a time loop and would sometime crumble to the ground in a sort of mild panic attack.
Asha didn't dare to get close to the library and would erupt in cold sweat and sometimes start crying with the word library or maze was mentioned and sometimes would freak out if there were more than three books open on a table while the room was dimly lit.
Ally went completely vegetarian, unable to eat anything made of meat after what she saw happen the corpses and would faint if she saw blood or roll in a ball in the corner of the room if something had the slightest scent of being rotten.
maybe my problem is the less grave one of the others but still, is I caught some movement in the edge of my vision and my brain associated with an inky monster from the castle, now appropriately named Its castle, I would drop whatever I was doing and back away in hurry or if there was black paint or ink spilled on the floor I would run after fast as I could because in my mind it was black = monsters.
and none of us dared to leave our rooms after sunset, in case any of the monsters roamed the hallways even if we knew that wouldn't happen under any condition, luckily my room had a bathroom attached to it but I wasn't sure about Ashton and Asha having the same luck.
it was an extreme relief for us when granny used her queen title to make specialist blow up the bridge leading to the castle as few days after we came back, no one will get in that haunted place and what inhabited it will never take another life.
I was still troubled by the images of my kidnapping but now also the death of Sam I could have avoided if I held on stronger, her eyes held nothing, they were so empty.... there was no will to live in them....
but our lives were mostly back to normal.
mom convinced me after a lot of talking to take back my running routine in the morning and to be honest, I think it was for the best because it took my mind of everything.
right now I was running through the forest but in my wolf form, it's been months since I had the time and I felt so.... free.... free of all my problems, free of the world's problems, just me and the forest with the wind blowing in my grey fur with my sky blue eyes glistering, it was so peaceful.
when I arrived back, I walked up to my room still as a wolf even if normally mom would scold me but what she doesn't know about will not hurt her.
I put on blue ripped jean shorts, a yellow tank top that showed my stomach, a short sleeved and thin light brown hoodie and knee high boots.... you may wonder why I'm dressed so colourfully instead of the black I normally like wearing and being this flashy...... well...... Anna somehow got me to agree to go on a date with her, that sneaky woman.... offering me food if I agreed.... who am I to say no to food and that irresistible puppy eyes look on her face.... good goddess woman!
I stuffed my phone in my pocket with 100 francs (Swiss money, deal with it, I can't seem to choose in which place of the world this takes place XD I used 911 in the prequel, feet and meters.... choose which ever place you want)
mom eyed me strangely, scanning me up and down with her eyes a number of time, I was feeling slightly self-conscious as the scars on me were more visible then with my 'normal' clothing style and that the bandages around my arms weren't covered, normally that didn't bother me but my mom's intense gaze would make Satan shake in fear in front of her if she got angry.
"m-mom?" my eyebrow twitched a little as I forced a chuckle and wavering smile, it seems like she's staring right through my soul and determined to find something that isn't there.
she stared at me for a while more before simply smiling and turning away, I gave her the most deadpanned look ever in the history of deadpanned looks.
I stare at her a little as I exited the house, coming face to face with Anna.
she had grey flats, a black skirt on with a sky blue T-shirt.... if this was an anime I would have had a nose bleed but as it wasn't I simply went bright red.
"Ash? are you alright?" she asked.
"y-yeah I'm fine really" I said, shaking away my.... particular thoughts.
"then let's go" she grabbed my hand a pulled me after her.... and she is supposed to be the adult not me yet she's much jumpier and hyper about this then I..... jeez.
"where are we going?" I asked.
"it's a surprise" she winked and turned away while I when beet red again.... oh good goddess save me before I melt in a puddle of hotness.
I could have sworn I heard laughter in the wind from Moon at my thoughts making me roll my eyes but smile.
