A/N: Sup Nerdians! Longer chapter today! I'm thinking of making this a proper project. I planned on getting to ten chapters and then finishing it but... if you guys wanted... I could make it a full on thing? OH! And, the character Red? Completely owned and created by DJMidge! Her OC! Oh, and I'm holding an OC competition and the form format will be at the bottom A/N! Anyways, on to the story!

I wish I could go back.

I wouldn't change anything.

I'd just watch in detail to see where we went so, so wrong.

Chapter Three

-Sky

We made it back to our cells after nine solid hours of work. We filed in and a piece of pork was thrown in after us. I gave Jason a bigger half; he'd been beaten badly. He needed it. He thanked me graciously before eating it quickly. I took time with my piece. I wanted to make it last. I looked at the cell across from us and realised Seto and Dakota hadn't come back. I was troubled by that. What if they were in a bad way? What if the warden was beating them? I tried to push my worries back. Everything was fine... right?

-Ty

I woke up to the sound of the door being banged open. I looked up sleepily, blinking, unsure where I was. I was curled up with my head on my arm and my wing hurt like hell.

"Wake up, demon," a gruff voice said. My head snapped up and I stared. This time it was Aleks. He looked odd without the sword and the bandana over his mouth. He studied me silently, I stared back at him. I stood up slowly and warily, the metal chains wound around my wrists and my ankles holding me in place. It's not like I could really try and attack him.

"So," Aleks asked, sitting down in front of me, closer than most would come. Also considering I'd nearly killed him once before. I don't get why he was suddenly so trusting. "What's your name?" he asked, and I stopped, trying to remember how to talk.

"Ty," I managed, my voice coming out rough. Aleks looked surprised. I was just as surprised as he was. I didn't realise I could even talk still.

"Do you know my name?" he asked, and I nodded silently. "Do you know all of our names?" he said curiously, and I nodded again.

"Can you tell them to me?" he questioned, and I sighed.

"Jor…dan. Aleks. Ja…mes. Stev...en. Sea…m…us," I paused and took another breath. "Ed…die. Nick. Da...ni...el." I really struggled over the names. Aleks cocked his head slightly and then nodded.

"Awesome. I wanted to see how much you knew. Can you tell me where you're from?" Aleks asked, and I stopped.

"The… End," I said, and he nodded approvingly.

"What are you?"

"End...er Drag...on Hy…br...id," I said, stumbling over the syllables. My throat hurt from the strain of trying to form words.

"Awesome. Do you know what group I'm part of?"

"The… Creatures," I said, not shuffling up the longer word. I was pretty proud of myself for that.

"And what group are the Creatures from?"

"The…. Resist…ance," I said, splitting "resistance" so my throat wouldn't give out.

"Wow. You know more than we thought," Aleks said with a chuckle.

"I'm... civilized," I muttered, and his smile dropped.

"You're an Ender Dragon Hybrid. Your kind destroyed our world and has captured more of the population and holds them in prison facilities," he said, unimpressed.

"I'm… not… account…able for their… actions," I struggled, and he bit the inside of his cheek. He stood up, thought about it, and the left. When he returned, he bought all of the Creatures with him. They lined up against the wall and were unmoving, hands by their sides, staring straight ahead. The door opened and then a striking woman walked in, holding herself with poise and confidence. She wore a red hoodie with the hood up, covering her blonde hair and had relatively unscathed blue jeans and black combat boots. A quiver was slung over her shoulder and the curved top of a bow protruded from the top. Her pale skin was scarred and scratched and she looked young. Her blue eyes studied me silently, and the Creatures saluted quickly before dropping their arms back down.

"This is The Red Hood, Leader of the Resistance," Aleks announced grandly, and the girl rolled her eyes.

"My name is Ava Blanca. Call me Ava and you'll lose a finger or two. It's always Red," she said. I nodded quickly and remained seated. She groaned. "Come on then, stand up! I don't have all day!" I cautiously stood up and she marched up to me and grabbed my chin roughly, twisting my head this way and that, studying me like a lab experiment. I took offense to that.

"You, sir, are in excellent condition for a rogue!" Ava – I mean Red – commented. "And Aleks tells me you can talk? Do you mind showing me?" she asked, this time softened and a bit kinder.

"I… can talk," I said, and her eyes widened.

"Amazing. So, we're been chasing you for god knows how long, and I apologise for the chains. I remember distinctly telling the boys to go easy on you," Red said, casting a poisonous glare at them. I swear they flinched. "The chains are a precaution, actually. You have been classified as dangerous, what with you nearly killing our people." She said, conversationally.

"I wouldn't… of att..acked if they didn't… first," I protested, and Red removed her hand from my chin, leaving it throbbing, and crossed her arms, looking at the Creatures and scowling.

"Eddie?"

"Yes, Red?"

"You told me that he attacked first. Where you lying?"

"Um… no," Eddie stammered, and Red marched up to him and slapped him hard across the face.

"You fricking idiot!" she yelled. Aleks chuckled into his palm.

"Red! Calm down! We were just hunting for food and you know we have the policy to kill hybrids on sight!" Eddie said, and I flinched. Red pressed her face up against Eddie's.

"You know I took that policy down," she hissed, and then she returned to me, drawing a key from the pocket of her jeans and unlocking all my chains. They fell to the ground with a clatter and all the boys pressed against the wall wearily, hands going to weapons. Red held up a hand and they all froze. She looked at me and then took a step to the side.

"Can I look at your wing? I saw it was pretty damaged," she said, all sweet again. I was alarmed. She was scary. I hesitantly held out my injured wing and she took it gently. My wing twitched from the touch and I hissed in pain.

"Hey, it's alright," she soothed. She ran her fingers along the thin grey membranes and I shivered. "It's broken in two places and the arrow wound is healing. I know your kind heal quick. You'll be fine to fly in at least three days." She reported, dropping her hands away. I tucked my wing back in gently against my back and I watched as she walked around me, checking me for something. I self-consciously wrapped my tail around my leg and she chuckled.

"You seem surprisingly docile for your kind," she remarked, and my fists clenched.

"Stop… saying that," I said, and I was surprised at how much my voice had cleared. "I… I ran away from that. I didn't… kill anyone at the start." Someone called bullshit quietly from the side and Red turned and stared at Daniel. He pointed at James and James held his hands up in surrender.

"I didn't do it! This idiots trying to call me out!" James said angrily. Red rolled her eyes and then quick as a flash, her bow was out and a slim arrow was holding Daniel against the wall by his shirt. Daniel's eyes were wide and Red nonchalantly swung her bow back over her shoulder, turning and smile widely at me, clapping her hands.

"Well, let's get you cleaned up!" God, I was terrified of this girl.

-Aleks

It was hilarious, watching Dan get a beat down from Red. She always went hard on us, keeping us in line. Sometimes I think that's because she likes us more than she's letting on. She's always frowning and rolling her eyes at us but she always does it with an almost motherly attitude. Red helped the demon – Ty – out of the room and I watched them closely. I was worried about her. She had been acting strange lately, and now… it was almost like she trusted this guy. The demon. The way she'd checked him for wounds and studied his wing had been odd. We all walked out of the cell and walked around the base for a while together. Our base is situated inside a mountain and is lit purely by Glowstone and torches. We passed a few other members on the way but the halls were basically empty. I forget how late it is in here sometimes without the windows to help. I wondered if anyone saw us bring Ty in. I was snapped up out of my thoughts by James slamming Eddie against a wall.

"You god damn idiot!" James muttered, releasing his hands from Eddie's shoulders and letting him drop down the wall.

"So what I didn't tell her we opened the attack? I don't trust those fricking demons!" Eddie yelled. "We have to kill all of them on sight! They're the reason we're in this position!"

"What position?" Seamus asked, and Eddie rounded on him, fist up.

"The position of us having to hide out of sight all the god damn time! Don't you missing being free?" Eddie demanded, and Seamus shrugged.

"We don't own this world anymore," he said coldly, turning and walking away down the hall. "Get used to it."
