The door closed with a 'click', as Amy and Dan left the hotel room in Iceland to go to the library, a.k.a., Dan's torture lab, and Amy's safe haven.
Nellie tip-toed to the door and looked up and down the hallway, making sure that they weren't coming back for anything.
When she didn't see them, Nellie went back inside and swiftly walked to the closet. She opened it with one more glance around the room, and pulled out…
No, not a laptop.
No, not a high-tech cell phone.
Yes, fifty pound weights.
She set them down in the middle of the hotel room, where she heard a resounding creak of floorboards, and then went into the one bedroom that Amy and Dan shared (She slept on the couch in the main room.), and changed into a black tank top and a pair of shorts. Nellie went back to the weights, and started lifting them in each arm, easily.
She had been doing this for over three years now, and was getting stronger each day. With each arm she lifted, her muscles bulged.
Nellie gave a smug smile, loving being this strong. But, to her dismay, the door opened, and in came Amy and Dan.
"Sorry, Nels, we forgot our…" Dan's words died in his throat as he stared at Nellie in horror/awe.
He poked Amy repetitively in the arm, never ripping his gaze from Nellie.
"Dan, what?!" Amy said, finally turning around from looking for some money for a taxi. She immediately caught sight of Nellie, and screamed before running from the room.
Dan, however, looked up at Nellie and asked, "Awesome! Are you a secret Ninja queen or something?!"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Well, like I said in the Very Last Clue, I told you that I would do a story about Nellie working out!
This idea was just nagging at me… It's just a funny little one-shot of nothing….
Well, bye…
