Sorry about the wait. I thought it would be nice to change up the story a bit. Hopefully it works out pretty well. Well here's chapter 6, hope you enjoy it. :)

Disclaimer: I don't own anything.

It was morning already? Damn, it didn't even feel like an eight hour slumber. Ugh, I had to leave for that fucking mine today. Whatever, hopefully Riverwood isn't that far off.

I got up to a sitting position and saw that everyone was still asleep. Eh, I guess I woke up pretty early. I realized that my armor was still on, hence my soar shoulder. I seriously have to stop sleeping in my armor. Speaking of armor, I need a new set of armor. A heavy set of armor, not this shitty set of leather armor.

I grabbed my battle axe and sheathed it onto my back. I should let my buds sleep in, they deserve to. I walked in the main hall of the barracks, opened the door to the upstairs and started up into the mead hall.

When I got up there, only Vilkas and Kodlak were up. They were talking about something, I'm guessing about the cure to the werewolf. I knew about it, but now wasn't the time to go on a little quest to the southwestern part of Skyrim.

"Good morning fellas." They turned their heads, caught my gaze and smiled.

"Good mornin' Bame." Vilkas replied. Kodlak nodded a greeting. They were having pheasant for breakfast, I remember how good pheasant was on Earth, hopefully it's just as good. Vilkas pulled up a seat for me and invited me to sit down. I took a seat.

"Here, you need something to eat." Vilkas grabbed a plate with cooked pheasant breasts and slid it to me. I took a piece of the pheasant breast and took a bite. It was just like how it was on Earth, exactly.

"You going to clean out the mine today?"

"Yeah, I'm leaving right after this."

"Oh alright then. You taking anyone?"

"No I don't need anyone to come. I could handle the mine myself." Kodlak chuckled and leaned back in his seat. "What, do you think I can't?"

"Nah, I didn't think that." He kept on laughing. I rolled my eyes and took the last bite of my pheasant.

Thinking about it, I had no idea how far Helgen was. Maybe it's twice as far. Maybe Vilkas and Kodlak knows. "Do you guys know how far Helgen is?"

"Uh.." Vilkas started while scratching his head a looking up, "Maybe around a twelve hour walk. I know the mine is an eight hour walk," he started stroking his beard, "and Helgen is close to it, so yeah," he looked back me with a sign of sureness. "Roughly six hours. You have business there, right?"

"Yeah, I have to keep my promise. I have to be there in two days, so I'll have to leave around now." Shit, I was not ready to hike for eight hours. Whatever, it has to be done. I finished off my drink and stood up. "Well I'll be leaving now. Be seeing you two."

Suddenly, Kodlak springed up. "Hold on, I forgot to tell you. You can't go with armor like that!" he practically shouted pointing at my leather armor. "Be right back. Stay here, don't you move." Then he walked out the back door. Vilkas looked at me and shrugged out of confusion.

Moments later, he came back in. This time he had a decorated steel armor with wolves engraved in it. "This is your new set of armor. It's the Companions signature armor and I think you deserved it." He tossed me the armor and caught it thinking it was going to be a ton. It wasn't at all, it was a little heavier than my leather, but not bad at all. I pulled off my old leather armor and slid on my new set. It was quite comfortable as well.

"Wow, thanks a lot Kodlak."

"Well you deserved it already. Now go get your deeds done and be safe, my friend." He smiled and pointed at me.

"I will be I promise. Talk to you guys later, see ya." I waved goodbye and went out the front door.

I decided that I wanted to go see how Lydia was doing so I went to the temple. I opened up the front and saw that the Jarl himself was asleep in his chair with his hand holding hers. She seemed to healing up fast. I smiled and went back out the door. I took a deep breath and started on my long journey to the damn mine..

::Steve's POV::

I woke up to sound of Jon snoring. Geez, he's the loudest sleeper, well not as loud as Bame. He is the loudest sleeper I know. Kevin was still asleep with his arm on his forehead looking up.

Then I realized that we were in Skyrim again, ugh! I hated the game, it was so laggy and confusing. Well whatever. It doesn't matter what happened anymore, my best friends and I are here.

Alright, what to do? Should I wake up Kevin? Nah, I won't. Jon? Nope. Bame? Where is he? He's probably upstairs. I'll go check.

I got my so called 'mage' hoodie, my pretty awesome knife and headed upstairs into the main room. There I saw a couple people that were a part of this organization. What did Bame say that they were they called? I think it was the Companions. I don't know. Well, this guy, Vilkas seems pretty pretty swell. The only thing is that he smells like a wet dog.

Vilkas was sitting at the table next to the fire in the middle of the room. He saw me and motioned me to take a seat. I accepted his invitation and sat in the chair. "Good morning Steve," he greeted after taking a sip from his cup.

"Good morning." I looked at what they had for breakfast and they had grilled chicken breasts, apples, and cheese. Not something I would expect in the normal world, but this is Skyrim. "Can I have one of the chicken breast?"

"You mean the pheasant? Sure."

Pheasant? I never had pheasant before. I took the breast anyways, I was so hungry. "Thanks." I took a bite of the pheasant and it was pretty good to be honest. If anything, a lot better than chicken.

I looked around to see if Bame was in the room. I didn't see him. "Hey ugh, Vilkas?"

"Yeah?"

"Do you know where Bame is?"

He raised an eyebrow and placed his cup on the table. "You mean he didn't tell you?"

"No why?"

He shrugged. "I thought he would. Well he went to do a job I gave him. He should be back in a couple of days."

Why wouldn't he tell me? That jerk. Whatever, I'll scold him when he gets back.

I remembered about that girl that Bame and I saved. Her name was Lydia, I think. What ever happened to her? Bame just sorta ran up in the upper region of the city and that was it. Maybe Vilkas knows. "Vilkas?"

"Mhm?" He hummed while drinking from his cup.

"Where is Lydia?"

He smirked. "I told you already, she's at the Temple of Kynareth." Dang, that was embarrassing. Who is Kynareth? I'll ask Bame later.

"Oh yeah sorry, I forgot. Where is that?"

"Just down the road. You want to go see how she is?"

I should go, but I don't know if I want to go alone. Maybe I have to. "I guess so."

"Good. You should. If she's awake, she would be very happy to see you." I smiled at the thought. I guess I'll go. But first, I should know a little bit more about her and who her family is.

"I'll go soon. But I need to know more about her. Can you tell me about her so I don't look stupid?"

He chuckled and leaned back in his chair. "Well she's the adopted daughter of the Jarl. Jarl Balgruuf the Greater if you forget his name. She was training to be a housecarl, but I don't know if she will stay with her training. She's a friendly girl and knows what has to be done. I think she's about eighteen years old. And.. That's all I know about her."

What is a jarl? I should ask. "What's a jarl?"

Vilkas choked a laughed in his cup. "You really must be new to Skyrim if you ask that question. A jarl is like a king. A king of a certain region of Skyrim. There are nine of them total. They are in the cities: Whiterun, Solitude, Falkreath, Riften, Morthal, Downstar, Winterhold, Windhelm and Markarth."

I'm probably going to forget those names.. But I still nodded like I understood what he meant. Anyway, Lydia is the adopted daughter of the king or 'jarl' of Whiterun. Well I must of done something tremendous if I saved the daughter of the Jarl. What was his name again? Ugh! The names are so confusing!

"What was the Jarl's name again?"

"Balgruuf the Greater. He loves Lydia very much, and the fact that you and Bame saved her, he is going to reward you two very highly. Divines, he might even make you and Bame thanes for that. He would do anything for the safety of that girl."

Well that's good to hear I guess. He's going to reward me and Bame. Well, that doesn't matter, what matters is that we saved somebody. "Thanks Vilkas. I'll be going now."

"Alright Steve. Remember, be humble in front of the Jarl at least until he says that you can speak freely."

"Okay.. See ya." I went out the front door and headed to the temple of.. what was it called? Kyneth, Kyreth, K- I dunno. As I was walking, I saw a large dead tree. What's the point of that? Whatever, weird Skyrim people. Then I came across a large building. It was church-like so it had to be the temple.

I opened the door and entered the temple. To be honest, this place was pretty cool. Only thing is that the place was a hospital. Hospitals scare me, at least the ones back home.

I looked around a bit. I saw a bunch of soldiers on these bed type things. Then I saw the girl, Lydia. And next to her was a very well dressed man. He must be the king, or jarl. He had his head on her hand. I walked up to him. "Excuse me, Jarl Balgruuf."

He looked up at me with glassy eyes. "Who are you?" I broke eye contact and looked down hoping that it meant respect.

"I'm uhh, Steve."

"Oh really? Why didn't you say so? Come on grab a chair." Wow that was a sudden mood change. I picked up a chair, brought it over and sat down. "Steve, the other man that was with the man, Bame, who helped save my daughter?"

I nodded politely. "Yes, that's me."

"Thank you Steve. I'm forever in your debt."

"Oh that's not necessary. Anyone would of done that."

He leaned up from his chair and shock his head. "I don't think so. People in these days are wicked. Other people wouldn't of done what you and Bame did."

I didn't know what to say. I mean, wouldn't other people at least try to help her? Oh yeah, that's right.. We aren't in America anymore. Speaking of America, are we ever going to get back home? Or are we stuck here forever? I'm starting to miss my family. My dad, mom, and my other brother. Oh yeah, especially Shpuppy, my fat yellow lab. I wonder what they are doing.. I wonder if Bame wants to go back. Why are we even here? There has to be a reason why we are here. Someone has to know.

I snapped out of my daydream and focused my gaze to the girl, Lydia. She seemed like she was doing better. Whatever the nurses have been doing, it seems to be working. She wasn't as pale and seemed to regain color. I remember Bame's face when we first saw her. I smiled at the memory. I know Bame's face well enough when he sees a girl that he likes. And the fact that he quickly rebutted the large guy when he said that he would carry her back. Ha, this was going to be funny when she wakes up and Bame finds out.

Suddenly she moved her head left and right repeatedly and started breathing heavily. What is happening? "Lydia, it's pa, are you okay?!" Balgruuf cried with a super concerned reaction. She stopped turning her head and her breathing slowed. Then her eyes opened up very slowly only up to halfway. "Lydia! It's pa."

She looked up at him and attempted a smile. "Pa..?" She whispered very weakly.

"Thank Kynareth! You are alright!" His eyes started tearing up.

"Where am I?"

"You're in the Temple of Kynareth. You got her yesterday. It's a miracle that you woke up today." She looked around the room and then caught her gaze on my. I bowed my head.

"I know you, I saw you in my dreams." What the heck? I was in her dreams? That's.. interesting. "Where's the other man?" And Bame was too? I'm sure he will be happy to hear that.

"Uhh, he is out doing a job." She nodded very slowly and rested her head back down on her pillow.

"What's your name?"

"I'm Steve."

"Steve? That's an interesting name. What's the other man's name?"

"His name is Bame."

She raised an eyebrow. "I never heard names like that. Where you from?" Oh geez, what am I supposed to say?

"Around. No specific place."

"Oh okay," she moved a hand to her face and started rubbing her eyes. "I'm hungry."

"I would imagine, you've been gone for two weeks." Balgruuf got up and grabbed an apple from one the bowls lying around in the room. He handed it to her and she started eating like she never eaten before.

I felt sort of awkward sitting there and watching her eat. I should get back anyways. I got up from my chair. "I have to get back to my place to see if Vilkas has anything for me. I'll talk to you later."

Balgruuf looked up at me and waved a goodbye. "Okay Steve. I'll be seeing you soon. Take care."

"See ya." I wonder what he wanted to see me for, probably a reward or something. I'll see what it's about later. I walked out the door and back towards the Companions house, or whatever the place is called.

There you have it. Hopefully it was a good idea that I switched it up a bit. But I can't know for sure unless you readers comment and review my story. Thanks I'll get working on C7.
