Golden future (Hunter fanfic)

Chapter 154: Taming the beast

Hunter's P.O.V.

Somehow, the deer seems so much more easy! As I hold onto it's back, trying to ride it, it doesn't hop around to shake me off. It's trotting as if just letting me tame it. After so many attempts, is it just tired? Instead of holding onto it's antlers as if reins, I keep my hands off to test if this is a trick, but ready to grab back on if things go wrong. Now instead of trotting, just walking. "I... Want off?" I command in a questioning tone.

The large deer kneels down to let me off, so I get back onto the ground. It's really tamed then. It's gotta be because of the constant repeating pattern. I've tried so many attempts to tame it, I've lost count. 

But in a flash, I'm no longer in the dark abyss. Now I'm back in my room... But I'm so tall now! Looking down to see long, animal legs. The fur color being blonde. But from what I'm seeing, a lot more better to look at than what Belos becomes. Need a mirror.

Walking directly to the window to see my reflection, a deer. Yellow. Tall. I look just like a normal deer aside from my size. I can control what I do. No black goo so far. And just like a deer, pitch black eyes. This curse better be worth it.

I can tell Edric about this! Maybe we can go back to how we were before! Just as I contemplate how to turn back, Hooty opens the window, probably to look at my progress. Now it's as if I'm a deer in headlights, as so is he till he gets all dramatic once again. "It didn't work! It didn't work!" He pulls his head away and back to the door, most likely to warn the residents of this house.

I stick my head out the window, yelling "Hooty it's me!" But no answer, and not too long after is my doorknob being jiggled. Sighing, I use my antlers in a certain angle on the lock to unlock it, hoping this would convince them I'm not a danger.

Just as it opens, King jumps out and screeches. "It's me! I'm not going to kill you!" This earns a confused look from everyone who sees this isn't the same deer. "Hunter? You tamed it! But aren't you going to change back?" Eda goes from her harpy form to her original one. 

(How's it? Was giving him the curse a good writing idea?)
