eighty three

zayn and liam rushed through the caves in search of harry. zayn more so than liam. he was so determined to get to him before anything too bad happened to him, and the anger he held for his brother was driving him as well. he still can't believe that after all these years, he was still bitter over this.

naraku always did have issues with letting things go. he was known to hold grudges, whilst everyone else had already forgotten it. he doesn't exactly know what being the king would gain him. yes, he'd gain respect, but what's having respect if you don't have the strength and power to go along with it? what's everyone going to think of a king who had to cheat his way to the throne instead of fighting to get there like everyone before him?

he won't have much respect at all when people discover what a snake he is. and honestly, zayn could care less about about being a king. he no longer wanted to be apart of this world and this was a reason why. his family, and his heritage. he was tired of dealing with it all, he just wanted this all to be over and to live freely amongst the humans. they weren't perfect but it sure damn beats being in this hellhole, literally.

zayn growls clenching his fists. "i'm going to kill him."

"zayn, just make sure harry's safe first." liam says.

"of course i will liam. what do you take me for, a fool?" zayn hisses, annoyed. liam rolls his eyes.

"i hate that you have such a bad temper sometimes." liam mumbles. zayn scoffs.

"it's not me having a bad temper, it's me being sick of you telling me things that i already know." zayn replies. liam shakes his head and they quietly continue through the caves.

they entered into a dark area, their eyes began glowing in order to see through the darkest. it took a while to get through it, but finally they see a little opening coming up, and soon they are exiting the tunnel into a more open area.

it's large and dome shaped, with a few boulders in areas. the only other way to get out with the dark tunnels sitting next to one another and on the other side of cave was an opening in the ground, a cliff. zayn looks around before his eyes land upon a cage, that's slightly lifted into the air, held up by a chain that was attached to the top of the dome.

and inside the cage was a familiar figure, laying curled up in the corner.

"harry." zayn whispers, then starts to sprint towards him. liam runs after him towards where harry was. "harry!" zayn yells again, loud hoping harry would hear him.

harry moans softly, face twitching as he hears someone yell. he frowns, eyes moving underneath his eyelids, trying to figure out if it's real or if he was dreaming. he hears the voice again and his eyes snap open.

"harry!"

harry somehow gets the strength in his tired body to sit up and crawl to the other side of the cage frantically. his eyes land upon zayn and liam and his heart fills with relief. "z-zee." harry croaks out. his throat was so dry and he was thirsty, but that didn't matter at the moment, he was just happy to see zayn.

"baby, are you okay?" zayn asked, standing at the edge of the cliff as close as he could get to harry. zayn's eyes scanned over harry's face and body for any injuries, only seeing the little purple bruise on his cheek, angering him. thinking of his brother being physical with harry with him made his blood boil.

"i'm o-okay." harry says, gripping the bars.

"alright baby, we're gonna get you out of there, just hold on tight." zayn tells him. harry nods, and sticks his arms out of the space between the bars before wrapping his arms tightly around them, hugging them tightly. zayn and liam nod at one another, before zayn turns to focus on the cage.
