Silly Me...I Forgot To Mention...I Cheated

Chapter Seventeen: Captivity

(Y/N) Pov

I feel my eyes start to open...once they fully open I look around and see Raven, Ruby and Neo all sleeping around me. Memories of what happened last night rush back to my mind. Moving carefully, I get out of bed and get dressed. I leave my room and make my way to the dining hall to get some food for myself. Once I reach the dining hall I go into the kitchen. I grab an apple and start to eat it, however a White Fang grunt walks into the kitchen. He walks to the stove and prepares a pot of stew. He sighs and looks over to me.
Grunt: "Hey...when I finish cooking this meal. Would you mind taking it the prisoner?"
My mind goes blank for a second until I remember. Velvet, I had taken her prisoner when she saw my face when I first killed the members of CRDL and then finished off Cardin yesterday. I only nod in agreement and the grunt gets back to cooking the meal. After a few moments the grunt puts the stew into a bowl and puts the bowl on a tray. The grunt also put a loaf of bread onto the tray with the stew. I walk over and pick the tray up and make my way to the prison cells.

Velvet's Cell

When I reach the cell I set the tray down and unlock the door, I pick the tray back up and walk into the cell. I see Velvet laying on the bed face down she shifts slightly.
Velvet: "Go away, I don't want any of the food you have to give me."
(Y/N): "Well then I'm just going to set this tray on the table."
Velvet suddenly shoots up and turns to me as I set the tray on the table and start to make my way out of the room. I feel her grab onto me and she pulls me into a hug. She looks up at me and reaches for my mask and removes it. She places a hand on my face.
Velvet: "(Y/N)...it is you..."
(Y/N): "...Hello Velvet. How have you been?"
Velvet: "(Y/N) why are you doing this?"
(Y/N): "You of all people should know why I'm doing this..."
Velvet looks at me then at the food, she just walks over to the bed and starts laying on it. I sigh and pick the tray up and walk over to the bed. I sit down on the bed and pick up the bowl. Velvet looks up at me with confusion.
Velvet: "What are you doing?"
(Y/N): "You need to eat."
Velvet looks at me as I move the bowl close to her face.
Velvet: "Well...I'm mot hungry."
Her stomach then growls in disagreement and she starts blushing in embarrassment. I hold the bowl up to her lips.
(Y/N): "Drink..."
Velvet hesitates, then she leans back onto the bed. I bring the bowl back up to her lips and start to tip the bowl up. The next few moments are filled with silence besides the sounds of Velvet drinking the stew. Eventually the bowl is empty, I set the bowl down and grab the bread. I break a piece off and hold it up to Velvet's mouth.
Velvet: "You don't have to feed me."
(Y/N): "Would you eat it if I didn't?"
Velvet falls silent and just opens her mouth. I drop the piece of bread into her mouth and she starts to chew it. Once the bread is gone I prepare to make my way out. Velvet grabs onto me and pulls me onto her bed.
Velvet: "Please stay..."
I sigh and just lay back into the bed and Velvet snuggles next to me. It brings back memories of when I stayed in her teams dorm room. The memories start to change to something else and I watch the world fade to black...

???-(Y/N), 10 years old...

I wake up to a kick in the stomach.
Guard: "Get up."
I start to get up but the guard places his foot on my back and presses down. I hear the man snicker.
Guard: "Whats the matter? Are you too weak to even get up."
???: "Whats going on here."
I feel the guard's foot leave my back and I lift my head up. I see a man in a black uniform with a black mask with various gold markings.
Guard: "Uhh...sir I was just...uh."
???: "Save your petty excuses. I don't care, this is the second time you broke protocol, you know what that means."
Guard: "W-Wait Al-"
A gunshot sounds out and I watch as the back of the guard's head erupts in blood. The guard takes a few steps back before falling to the side. The man in the mask walks over to me and pulls me up.
???: "Come with me."
I follow the man and he leads me into a different room. This room is completely empty except for a chair in the center of the room.
???: "Sit..."
I sit in the chair and watch as the man collects some things. Then another person bursts into the room, he wore a gold mask.
???2: "######!! I CAN'T FIND..."
The man looks over to me and he appears to calm down.
???2: "Oh...there he is."
???: "What do you want."
???2: "You'll be happy to know that I sold the boy."
???: "Excuse me..."
???2: "Well I don't think he knows the location of what we're looking for. So I sold him."
???: "...Who did you sell him to..."
???2: "I sold him to one of my good friends for a whole lot of lien."
???: "You don't have the authority to decide these things."
???2: "Perhaps, but you said to acquire  funds in order to make the necessary upgrades to the main fortress."
The first man looks over to me for a brief moment. He grabs me by the arm and pushes me towards the other man.
???2: "Thank you."
The man takes me out of the room and takes me into an elevator. The man looks at me then grips me by the throat and tightens his grip.
???2: "It hurts, doesn't it. You better get used to this feeling. My friend just loves to play with his toys."
He tightens his grip even more...the world starts to shake. I hear my name being called.

Present Day

My eyes shoot open and I sit up. I look to my side and see a teary eyes Velvet.
Velvet: "Were you having a nightmare?"
I say nothing, I just put my mask back on and start to leave the room.
(Y/N): "I have to go see Wilfre. I'll...visit you another time."
I leave the room, new thoughts swirling through my head. I was sold while in captivity? Why don't I remember any of this and why am I getting these thoughts now. I reach into my pocket and feel a paper note. Right, the note those scavengers had. I take the note out and open it up. I read it over...and grow angry. The person who had ordered my death...was Ironwood...
