Hunter sat down after kneeling for too long. His mind dazed from the spell that retrieved him and Luz from Emperor Belos' mind. Flapjack tweeted but he didn't acknowledged it until the palisman nudged him. His eyes lit up with fear as the memory flashed before his eyes. Luz pulling him by the arm as she lit a fire glyph through the vines he created. He and Belos exchanging looks with his being fear while Belos' look being contempt. His heart began beating as his breath quickened.
"He-he knows we were in there," he managed to get out. "I-I can't go back!"
"Kid, breath," Eda intructed gently.
Flapjack tweeted a bit louder in order to break through the grimwalker's mind and flew over to Eda. He perched on her shoulder and tweeted again.
"You can stay here if you'd like," Luz chimed in. "It's okay right Eda?"
"If he's this traumatized then he can stay here but what did you see?" Eda turned to her surrogate daughter.
Hunter unhooked his cloak and threw it down in complete disgust. Luz turned her attention to the panic ridden teen and held out her hand. Hunter took it and allowed her to guide him to the couch.
"It's too hard to talk about right now," she shuddered.
"I'll leave it alone for now. It's getting late and you two should be in bed right now."
Luz turned to Hunter who was calming down. "Do you want to sleep alone on the couch or do you want me and King to sleep with you?"
"I think... I might need... some company," Hunter managed to get out.
Luz went into Eda's room to retrieve a blanket. She gently handed it over and he took it gratefully.
Hunter bowed his head to show respect. "Thank you."
"Don't mention it," Luz told him.
"Good night kids," Eda called turning off the lights.
"Night Eda," Luz and King called out as darkness engulfed them.
