Red's POV:
Just like the beginning of my story I watched everyone celebrate Mal and Ben once more. I looked at Sam who was smiling so happily but why wasn't I? I turned to the Isle seeing Uma and her men make their way towards us but I wasn't scaced. Why wasn't I scared? What was this emotion building inside me? I turn to look for Sam but like everyone else he was singing and dancing. My heart was racing, my blood boiled and my tears kept welling up but why?
I made my way towards my room to clear my head and thought but I couldn't. It rang over and over in my head like a loud drum, "Hades. My father." Mal's voice cut through me so deeply. Audrey's smile made it worse knowing she was there because of HIM! I slung everything to the floor as tears stained my dressed. My dress that Mal and Evie helped make. Mal and Evie who knew everything and hid it from me. "Red darling." I heard Godmother's voice. The sweet voice that took me in and tutored me day and night. The woman who believed in me no matter what. I couldn't answer over the tears and hatred I had for that man. "Are you in there darling?" I suffocated my tears with a pillow hoping and wishing she'd leave me alone. For once it came true. I looked over at my bookshelf filled with books and pictures of my 'friends'. I gritted my teeth seeing the three of us smile and enjoying ourselves. 'Fake.' the word branded into my brain. 'They never cared. They knew what he did and didn't help you.' I couldn't stand this fake picture. I threw it out the window and wanted to scream but with what voice?! The angrier I got the more my flames burned. My hair ignited burning the tips to black and my cloths were fireproof. I grabbed all the clothes Evie made and burned them to ash. To nothingness. I fell to the floor cradling myself wanting answers but no one would be able to answer them. There was only one thing to do.
Go Home...
3rd person:
Carlos and Jay were excited for Mal and everyone but they knew. Red had gone missing and Jay couldn't find her anywhere causing Sam to panic, "What do you mean she's not here? Did you check her room?" Jay sadly shook his head, "Yeah. The room that was torched." He walked past Mal and Evie, "The room that had burned clothes and a smashed window." Evie looked at Mal and Hades who stood there. "What are you looking at me for? This isn-"
"Mal. You knew all along. What he did to her and that you were sisters. Yet you left her alone while were at the Isle. You didn't bother to even talk to her until she came here." Jay shoved the photo to Mal and walked away as Ben crossed his arms and huffed. "He doesn't kno-"
"Yes he does." Evie spoke softly with some tears. "We pushed her away from us, Mal. She's hurt that we lied to for so long. And I can't blame her. I'd be hurt if I found out the same thing." Evie crossed her arms trying to stay calm as Mal gripped the photo. "Why didn't you tell her?" Carlos looked at Hades with anger. "I thought she knew. I never talked to either of my kids."
"But you kept your eyes on them? How is that possible? And why is it you took her voice, had nothing to do with Red but you became good for Mal?" Hades looked at the boy with confusion that soon turned to anger, "Is it because she's different? Because she was part human unlike Mal?!" Carlos stepped on his toes causing Jane to pull him back. "Boy you don't know what you're talking about."
"Then explain?!" Carlos pulled himself from Jane's grip. Dude stood by his feet growling at the God as the others looked at him. Sam ran his hand through his thick hair, "I could care less about your explanation and reasoning but I'm leaving. And I want no one to follow me!" his voice turned dark pushing his way through Hades and Carlos. Hades took a deep breath as everyone but Mal left. "What's your reason, dad?" her tears caused his heart to ache. "You did hurt her and torture her and yet I just ask you turn good and it happens? There's a catch." Hades looked at her green eyes and felt his stomach turn to a knot. "Fine. I'll tell you but not here."
Red took off into the woods crying. 'Go home." repeated in her head on a loop. Where was home? She was lost no matter where she went. To the Isle back to Aradon. She collapsed and there stood the enchanted lake. She felt her powers grow stronger but this isn't what she wanted. She dove head first into the lake holding her breath as she began to swim deeper. The crystal rocks began to glow the closer she got to them. Guiding her to a cave. She inhaled the air around her making her way to dirt. She crawled feeling for rocks but found a soft batch of grass. She took her hand back unaware of the grass. Her eyes sparkled at the light of millions of crystals glowing like stars in the night sky. She saw trees and numerous plants she'd only seen in books. Her heart had stopped seeing this forest of greenery and beauty. "Welcome." She jumped seeing three women smile at her. "Oh my didn't you grow up to be a fine woman child." Red's face turned a bit pink seeing the beautiful women approach her, "You do know who we are?" She shook her head as one woman with curly brown hair smiled at her igniting a small flame in her hand to look at Red better, "Do you know now, child?"
Red looked at her in shock seeing her face in better lighting, "Oh oh. What about me?" the woman ran over to the light holding a basket of fruit and smiled as her blonder hair held small flowers. She shook her head and smiled seeing them. "If you know then speak child." Red felt small and pointed to her throat. "That's right. One sec child." the woman with brown hair finger glew a beautiful pink color as she touched her throat. "Now you may speak."
"Auntie Demeter and Hestia." she cried as they hugged cried echoed throughout the cave. "Yes yes it's us!" Demeter held her crying face feeling her pain. "Oh child what's wrong? First let's get you cleaned up and warm ok." Demeter guides Red up a small path only to reach the third woman who looked at Red crying in place. Her feet seemed to be nailed to the ground. Red stared at woman with blonde hair with beautiful flowers braided through her hair and blue eyes just like, "Mom?"
