(Remus's POV)
I wake up with a jolt from one of my nightmares again and look at the clock 2:34am, I lay back down and close my eyes trying to fall back asleep but fail because the voices have returned it hasn't even been an hour yet, I was somewhat mad about it. Oh well guess it's time to get up. I get out of my bed and start walking though the empty halls of the castle as I approach romans room along with mom and dads I make sure to be extra quite, especially dads room, if he woke up and found out it was cus of me I would spend another week in the castle dungeon. I tip toe over to the kitchen and start making coffee, the butlers and maids were up and about but not a lot so hopefully they would be to tired to care I was in here. Suddenly I got a awful headache and collapsed to the ground the voice getting unbearably loud. And then..
Silence.
(Romans point of view)
I woke up to be on the floor of what felt like the dungeon, I felt cuffs around my wrist and started squirming around to try and break free. The cold metal felt good on me as I usually felt extremely hot a lot of the time, then I heard my mother groan in the corner, who is this person that locked me and my family in here. Then I noticed I couldn't see Remus's glowing green eyes.It was pitch black and I couldn't see anything except for the dragon clock by the door. It said 4:52 am. That would explain the darkness, normally it's a lot lighter in here. Remus was most likely the one to have done this, he was sick in the head and I honestly hated him, but he wasn't 18 yet so we couldn't send him on the streets just yet. I knew he would be trouble, my thoughts were interrupted when I heard the gate open and then close, green glowing eyes staring right into my soul. "We can talk about this Remus, you don't have to be the bad guy!" I was trying to get myself out of this situation because I knew if he really wanted to he would kill me in a slow and painful way, along with the rest of my family. He had no desire to be king he only cared about himself.
(Remus POV)
"Aw look at you all chained up" I heard myself say, this wasn't me, I was being controlled certainly my family knew that, right? "You have no way out now!"
I wasn't scared, the voice never bothered me, it was just annoying, I didn't really care what things it made me do.. I'm still deciding whether that's a good thing or not. "We don't have to be enemy's, it can be you and me, playing like kids again, you can count on it!" I heard Roman say desperately. "It's time you learned a lesson, it's Time that you understand,
Don't ever count on anybody else..in this or any other land.." I said with a tone in my voice that sounded colder the frostbite. "We can be friends again!" Roman kept pleading, I liked this metal torcher, it drove him nuts.
"I once hoped for friendship, to find a place among my kind... but those were the childish wishes, of someone who was blind" these words hit deep to me, but I had to keep going, to make him see my point. "Open up your eyes, see the world from where I stand, be among the mighty you caged at my command! Open up your eyes, let go of your sweet fantasy land.. it's time to grow up and get wise.. come now little one, open up your eyes" he started to get quite so I thought I would finish it right here and then,
(Roman POV)
"We all start out the same, with simple naïve trust... shielded from the many things but life's not fair or just" Remus pulled up his sleeve to show me all the marks dad gave him from the many nights down here in the dungeon. "But then there comes a moment, a simple truth that you must face... if you depend on others, you'll never find you place" Remus started gazing out after the last sentence he said, that obviously hurt him deep, I knew he was trying to get to me but he was only making himself more depressed trying to do it.
"And as you take that first step, on a path that's all your own, you see it all so clearly the best was to survive is all alone.OPEN UP YOUR EYES, see the world from where I stand be among the night you caged at my command, OPEN UP YOUR EYES, and behold the fated light, it's time to grow up and get wise.. come now little one..open up your eyes" he snapped his fingers and was suddenly gone. I un-restrained now, mom and dad were next to me in what looked like my room. I didn't know what just happened but I knew it wasn't good, for me, mom, dad, or our people.
(Remus POV)
I let my parents and Roman go by leaving them in his room, but I didn't go back, I couldn't, not after that massacre, I would be hanged for insanity. So I ran, I ran and ran and ran until I was In the village, the sun was starting to rise up and people were starting to wake. They would all recognize me in an instant and I would be brought right back to the castle. I ran into the nearest shop and stole some clothes so I wouldn't be as noticeable, then I ran to a house and broke in hoping no one was in it. This place looks pretty small so hopefully it's only one person living here, i thought, then I heard a gun being loaded. Shit.. I ran behind the couch as I saw a young teenager open to door to what I guessed as the bedroom, he looked about one year older then me, probably 17. He looks kinda cute actually, wait what am I thinking! I bonked myself in the head and the teen apparently seemed to hear, "if your the police and you've come here to take me to prison then your gonna have to say hi to my little friend" holy shit who is this dude. He shoots at the couch just barely not hitting me, I jump up and put my hands in the air to surrender to him. He looks at me questioningly but then aims the gun at me "who are you you" he asks, "I-I am Remus d-dragious" I say hoping that he doesn't recognize me. "Y-you mean your one of the p-princes" he asks extremely confused and scared at the same time "why are you here" he then asks "I am here because I ran aw-" then I hear gun shots outside. The police are here, one of the neighbors must have heard the gun shot and called the police, the dude grabs my hand and runs out the backdoor straight to the forest, "wait who are you" I ask while being dragged practically. He turns around and gives me a mischievous grin, "my name is Janus, more commonly known as, Deciet" wait.. that sounds really familiar... oh wait.. "you mean the criminal!" I yell as we retreat into the forestry. He looks at me and nods.
