Truth of the Isle

Harry Hook

Harry, are you sure you're okay with this? Cause if not we don't have to do it?" I ask softly while eyeing all of the other VK's waiting.

Harry just nods his head and shrug shoulders. The screen comes to life; his name in big bold letters

Harry Hook: The Only Child of Captain Hook.

The house is old and dirty; loot and treasures are found sitting all over the place. Around the corner comes a young boy. No one else is in the house.

"Is that you?" Dizzy asks

"Yeah. I was two." Harry says

"Where is your dad?" Ben asks

"I don't know; I never knew." Harry responds bluntly.

Harry starts to clean the counter in the kitchen and then moves from chair to chair; from room to room. Still no sign from his father. Or anyone in the house but him.

"I wasn't always cleaning; I just never knew what to do when he wasn't around. I hoped at that age if I did clean he would stay." Harry says while Uma squeezes his hand as the screen flashes to Harry looking slightly older.

Harry is standing on a chair; over the oven trying to cook dinner. Only one plate is set out and only one glass. The room still looks untouched.

"Wait for it." Harry says.

Harry reaches for the pot on the stove; forgetting that it is hot and burns his hand. Spilling the water all over the floor. The door opens slowly after a minute and in the doorway stands his father who looks annoyed but says no words but shuts the door and walks away.

"He just saw that you burned your hand! Why didn't he try to help you?" Lonnie asks in shock.

"Why would he help me?" Harry asks her.

"A parent should always want to help their child if they are hurt..." Lonnie mutters confused.

"This is the Isle. No one cares." Mal says angrily as Ben pulls her closer to him.

Harry is seen sitting at the kitchen table talking away to his father who doesn't even acknowledge that he is talking. Just continues on about making his breakfast before leaving the room as Harry is mid-sentence. Harry deflates in his seat just staring sadly at the door.

Harry doesn't say anything just stares silently but shrugs eventually.

"Did he ever talk to you?" Lonnie asks

"Sometimes; I know why he never did and why he acted the way he did. He never acted like he cares if I was overly evil or bad. He just didn't want me. I learned that very young." Harry says.

"Wash these clothes boy!" Captain Hook says to his son harshly before tossing all the clothes on the floor.

Harry stares sadly at the door his father just stormed out of before grabbing all the clothes off the floor.

"That was one of the very first things I remember my father ever really saying to me." Harry admits out loud.

Harry is shown sitting at the table alone with a birthday cake sitting in-front of him. Harry tries talking to his father but pushes away back to the kitchen alone on his birthday.

"I mean at least you had a cake though" Jane says softly.

"It wasn't a normal cake you are all accustomed to though. It is mostly dirt and garbage and left overs from Auradon." I state quietly ignoring the looks from Doug.
