the haunting grounds

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

soleil slid down a door, leaning against it heavily. she was lucky to have the wolf, luci, from the collar, with her. he protected her against these... people.

she held out her hand for him and he came to her, letting her pet his head. ever since she had set him free from the chain that held him, he had saved her and stayed with her. she was lucky to have him on her side. soleil smiled at him, patting his head.

she stood, adjusting the skirt she had on. for some reason, everyone except for her that long or thick clothes, which really bothered her, but this wasnt the immediate problem. she had to get out of blum castle before her crazy fucking uncle killed her.

she didnt even know this place existed, for her parents hadn't told her about it. honestly, soleil gets it. if she had been col, she wouldn't have told her child about it either. the sheikah was also sure her mother hadn't known either. but, oh well. her parents were.. dead now.

soleil swallowed heavily, opening the door opposite to the door she had been leaning against and ran out.

"luci!" she called, him barking in response and following her out. the boots supplied to her made a lot of noise when she ran, but it was the quickest way to get around the castle.

"miss.." she heard from behind her, making her stop dead in her tracks. soleil turned around, looking at the maid, her aunt, keldi. she thought soleil was the "perfect woman" for some reason, and was so jealous from it that she wanted to kill her.

keldi held a fire poker in her hand, before she had a shard of glass. soleil turned and ran from keldi, while luci attacked her without prompting from soleil.

soleil hated that she got so panicky in this situation. she could attack keldi, but keldi freaked her out far more than her previous pursuer had. soleil found a couch to hide under, and hide under it after making sure that keldi wasnt around.

soleil breathed heavily, covering her mouth with her hand while listening for keldi to pass by. she heard luci bark, and his claws click against the floor as he got closer to her. he always knew where she was, but always moved enough to not give her away to keldi.

the sheikah stayed under long enough to make sure keldi was gone, sliding out from under the couch and smoothing out her skirt with her shaky hands.

"luci," she called softly, hearing him bark in response and come running to her. she fumbled for a moment, before pulling out some beef jerky and giving it to him. soleil took out some lavender, smelling it to calm herself down while sitting on the couch and patting lucis back as he ate.

ok hi. so you're probably wondering wtf this is au is supposed to be, because soleils parents aren't dead in canon and shes in a castle.

so somewhat recently, i rewatched a haunting ground playthrough. haunting ground is about a girl named fiona belli and she is stuck in a castle with about 4 pursuers trying to get something from her. she also has a german shepard named hewie with her for most of it.

honestly, if you're not at least 17+ i dont recommend you watching a playthrough of this game unless you think you can handle it. its rated m17+ for a reason.

no, you cannot play it yourself unless you have a ps2 and about $500 to buy it off like ebay bc the game itself is underrated severely and didnt get very popular back when it came out.
