Mordhaus was an impossibly big place, almost like a small town. Amy already didn't know where she was, "Looks like I'm going to need to throw bread crumbs to find my way through here. The place was like a Labyrinth in its own way, it'd make since because Skwisgaar kind of looked like David Bowie in his own way.
Amy chuckled at that thought, and then she fell onto her knees, "OH I HOPE THE GOBLINS TAKE ME AWAY!" She was laughing hysterically to herself. The idea of the Jim Henson movie acting itself out before her was quite a thought. She wished that she had someone to share the laughter with; however, she was entirely alone. The emptiness of Mordhaus made her question how none of the band members felt alone.
Because, she sure did.
She leapt to her feet, she needed sleep. Preferably soon, seeing as she was almost dead on her feet. A shower probably wouldn't kill her either; she raised her jacket to smell it, it wasn't particularly pleasant. She started to wonder if there was even a place in this. . . Fortress . . . for her to stay. She felt like a vagrant in a castle.
She sat in the corner staring at her torn and old boots. Not knowing what else to do, she sort of zoned out.
Amy was playing guitar and singing at a nice coffee shop. It was a secret dream of hers, one that she'd never tell anyone. Unbeknownst to her, she began to sing out loud. She sang loudly and clearly, pretending that she was on stage. She was only interrupted by footsteps stopping in front of her; she immediately stopped singing and looked up. Nathan Explosion was standing there, staring at her like some sort of dumb man-child.
Her face became a deep red and she stared at his bright green eyes. They were almost supernatural. He grunted then sat cross legged in front of her, never once breaking eye contact. She almost edged away then smiled, "Are you sizing me up, big guy? I should warn you, I'm no alpha male, but I am a yellow belt in karate!" Nathan stayed staring coldly then finally growled, "I didn't know you could sing." You busted out laughing, "Everyone can sing Nathan, just some are better than others."
Nathan looked down a little, "But you sing real good. You could sing someone to sleep . . . you should sing me to sleep." Amy smiled, "Well I guess I have no where else to go. Sure." He got up and waited for her, and then he led her to his room. It was a tad awkward; Amy hadn't been in another male's room since she was dating Scott. His room was huge and his bed could easily hold twenty people. It was really . . . metal . . . too.
Nathan had changed into his pajamas and lay down in bed, he grunted to let Amy know he was ready.
"Nathan, before I sing, will you promise me something?" He grunted again. Amy gulped, "Promise me you won't tell anyone I sing?" Nathan rolled his eyes from the bed, "Fine. Whatever. Just sing already."
Amy sang, she sang her heart out. Nathan lay there, listening closely to her voice. It wasn't good in the way that most people had good singing voices. It was very motherly though and it didn't sound awful. It soothed Nathan into a nice deep sleep. Amy didn't know what to do after that so she started to look around and saw Nathan's personal bathroom. It looked so nice; she practically leapt into the shower. She'd hoped that he wouldn't mind. She had no idea how long she'd been in there and she heard a light tapping on the shower door.
She got alarmed and immediately turned the water off. She heard a grunt, "I uh, sent your clothes with the gears to be washed. You can wear my extra pajamas if you want." Amy got instantly terrified, "Thank you Nathan, I'm sorry I didn't ask." Nathan grunted, "It's . . . no problem. I'm sorry . . . we didn't have anything for you. . . . We're kind of shitty employers sometimes. I'm going to . . . . uh. . . . Leave so you can get dressed." She heard the bathroom door open and close. Amy peaked out from behind the shower door and found a pair of really big pajamas. She smiled; maybe she wasn't as hated as she thought.
She tied the draw string on the pants as tight as she could; however, they still slipped down a lot. She finally tied her hair back into pigtails and walked towards the bed, she bowed a little, "Thank you, Nathan." He grunted and mumbled, "You can sleep here until Ofdenson gets his shit together." Amy nodded and found a remote corner of the large bed to sleep in. Nathan actually smiled in his sleep, it was kind of funny.
"Nathan?" He rolled over to look at her and grunted. "Thank you again." He rolled back over and grumbled, "Just stop talking. I'm trying to sleep." Amy smiled and passed out on Nathan's bed.
29 Hours Later
Amy woke up at about 8:00 A.M, which was the earliest she'd woken up in 3 years. Feeling extremely proud of herself, she rolled over, only to find that she was in an infirmary bed. She was startled and sat up really quickly, only to become dizzy and fall back into her pillow. She looked around and saw no one, only Deddybear sitting in the visitor's chair. This probably meant that Toki had been there recently. "Hello? Is anyone there?" Suddenly a hooded figure came running towards her in doctor scrubs. "So you've finally woken up! How are you feeling milady?" Amy nodded, "I'm fine! What do you mean finally, what happened? How long was I out?" The Klokateer doctor shook his head, "Lord Nathan carried you here yesterday, worried because you had slept for 18 hours and was generally unresponsive. We thought you were in a coma."
"I'm pretty sure I was just sleeping. I had dreams and everything!" The doctor nodded, "Lord Toki will be very happy that you've awoken. He took sugar celibacy for the duration of your slumber. He's throwing up right now." Amy's eyes got large, " Why is he throwing up?" The Klokateer just laughed, " He's going through sugar withdrawal. It's wreaking havoc on him. Our Lord Toki is a mess."
Almost at the mention of his name, Toki came lumbering up the walk way. He did look like hell. There were dark circles under his eyes and could barely move. When he saw Amy his eyes brightened up and he practically ran to hug her, "AMY! AMS SO GLADS YOUS AMS OKAYS!" He practically squeezed her and Amy smiled and hugged him back.
"Toki don't worry, I didn't leave! And I won't!" Toki looked up at her with his giant pale blue eyes, " Promise?" Amy nodded and hugged him tightly, "Promise."
