Today was a new day.
One that can be made over.
Trading old for new..
Melody finished tying her shoes and stood up to look in the mirror. Her loose collar neck dress was light with the color baby blue and a white cardigan to match. Her clothes were picked out sometime before her arrival to Mordhaus and was a surprise when she had opened up her closet. Satisfied with her look, she brushed her dark hair away from her face and went over to Offdensen's office before going out. It has only been a day but Melody couldn't handle being cooped up in a house. Plus she wanted to see her friends, she hadn't seen them in a long time and now that she had freedom she wanted to go everywhere.
Making her way to Charles office, the door was open as he was talking to a klokateer. Seeing her in the hallway, he paused to look over at Melody.
"Ah, so the clothes fit you well. That's good." He commented. Melody was twiddling her thumbs out of nervous habit again, but swallowed her fear.
"Is it alright if I go to see some friends today?" She exhaled.
Charles questioned himself, she wasn't Dethklok so he didn't have to have klokateer's go with her where ever she went for protection but then again she was his cousin. Isn't she supposed to be more above than a band? He told the klokateer to get a car ready for her and will continue later about the bands upcoming tour. He bowed and left Charles and Melody alone.
"Weeell, I guess since the media hasn't found you out yet there's no reason for alarm. However I can't risk that." Charles made his way to his desk, opened a drawer and took out a gold ring.
"This is a small tracker. You wear it, and I'll know where you are if you are ever in trouble. This is only a safety precaution that I have to take." He put it in her hand as Melody stared at it.
"A tracker." She said skeptically at him. "Don't you think its a bit too much just to go see some friends? I mean you said it yourself, no one has found out about me so what is there to worry about?"
Charles sighed, "I can't risk you getting hurt or worse. Theres plenty trouble out there after me and Dethklok who want us dead." Reaching the ring he slid it down Melody's middle finger. She had almost forgotten about the weird nonsense he told her in the early morning. Still, there was no plausible excuses she could make as to why there would be a prophecy and a church dedicated to the seventh largest economy in the world.
"Just please do this one thing." Charles quietly said. He seemed vulnerable which made her a little scared.
She nodded her head and left closing his office doors.
Stepping more and more downstairs she heard two familiar voices talking with others in the main foyer. She had hoped both Toki and Nathan would leave there in time or she would have to have an awkward conversation. It seemed like her luck, she was never good in unfamiliar social settings.
"It's still crazy for me that robot has family though." It was Nathan's voice. Stopping at the bottom staircase, she eavesdrop on the conversation to prevent walking into a bad moment.
"Hey Natan, whut does she look like? In case I might bumped into her I dunt wanna freak er out." A different voice asked. She guessed it was their drummer Pickles, she peaked slightly around the wall to see the two band member's she saw last night talking to the three other's: the redhead with dreds, the tall blonde, and their bassist who was...not appealing by social standards she remarked. His face always reminded Melody of a bulldog. It was strange to hear their regular voices having a conversation amongst themselves. She saw the large door not that far away past them, that was her only way out. Inhaling, she pushed down her social anxiety and stepped out of the shadows.
Nathan was about to answer until he saw her peeking out from behind the staircase. He knew it was Melody by seeing her brown hair spilling over her shoulder, she looked more smaller than he remembered.
"Well uh, she's right there." Nathan nodded over to Melody
"Uhm... Hi.." She smoothed her hands together and twiddled her thumbs. she was nervous and her constant tick didn't help, she stood knees locked straight and become jittery. "I hope you don't mind I-I have somewhere to be."
Nathan felt bad and a little embarrassed for Melody remembering Toki barfing on her. The rest of the guys looked at her in a sort of disbelief that she was real except for Toki who felt terrible seeing her again. The singer knew he had to lead the situation so the rest of the band wouldn't say or do something that would make her feel uncomfortable.
Pickles spoke up in his Midwestern accent, " Ohhhh hi there, nice to meet yew, names Pickles whats yers now?" He shook her hand rather delicately as if to not scare her. Pickles was approachable and more like a "regular jack-off" with people.
But that couldn't be said for the others.
"Oh haiiis Melody!" Skwisgaar walked up next to Pickles to greet her, "So this ams de little rabbits Offdensons beens hiding eh?" She smiled shyly and in a cracking voice that she was his cousin and was happy to be living at Mordhaus.
From bad to worse, Toki and Murderface butted in, not realizing how crass they were when it came to socializing. Toki had sprang up in front of Melody," Heys Toki ams sorrys abouts pukings on yous I hopes ams forgives me?" She stammered a bit as she relived last night again. She'd rather have Toki to not remind her.
Murderface crossed his arms over his chest and stared Toki down in efforts to shame him, "Toki! Whattya mean puked on her?"
Cringing, Nathan responded, "Oh yeah well that was uhm supposed to be a storry for when shes not around." Nathan thought it was better to spare her the shit comments from the band for now since she had to leave...
"Wait, where IS she going?"
"Okay, okay, that's enough fuck off for now guys, she has somewhere to be. Where are you going again?" He asked genuinely curious. It wasn't long until more questions jumped on her.
Skwisgaar arched a brow, "Wheres does a 14 years olds gots to bes goings to?"
Melody inched more towards the door, she had to cut the conversation short even if it did come off as rude, "Ohh, t-to see some friends...they're waiting for me. I should really get goingnicetomeetyou Bye!" she said as she rushed out the door.
Nathan guessed now nobody in Mordehaus has any good family connections. Charles preferred to have a klokateer spend the day driving her around instead of having her stay put for a while. But he couldn't be mad at Charles for not even trying to bond with Melody, it would take some time for both to adjust.
"Well thats ams weirds," Toki said disappointed, "Hopes we didn't swarms her offs." Toki was already caring too much, then again he was the "cutesy" guy.
Pickles smirked, "Hah, nah, its mostly Skwisgaar over ere asking where a 14 year old goes off too. You should've seen the shit I was getting into at 14. Don't worry about the kid, she seems good."
The swede scoffed with arms crossed, "I wasnts gettings too intos it but bon'ts yew thinks it ams not goods for hers to be runnings off so early? Remembers fatty ding dongs?"
The band had almost completely forgotten about the kid they once adopted.
"Ohhhhh him. Haha Ah jeez, what a rascal." Nathan commented
"Melody isn't like the fat tub of shit we adopted so where ever she's running off to she'll be fine." Pickles said. Everyone came to a silent agreement but Murderface had to go on.
"And shame on you Toki for fucking puking on her!"
"Cants nevers controls yours alcohol!" Skwisgaar chimed in.
The subject changed to belittling Toki, but the thought crossed through everybody's mind: isn't Offdensen worried about Melody getting involved in the Church of Blackklok? Things had settled down, however nobody really knew when the imminent danger would come back. Only time would tell .
