An Emotional Connection

The Song

Amity POV

Amity turned to see what Luz was talking about. In the corner of the room was a guitar in good condition. "Luz, I love your ideas but I dont think a guitar will take that moster down." Amity said as Luz picked up the guitar. "What no! I read this myth once, and well you know how myths are true here. Well the myth was that the minotaurs mom would play a lyre to put him to sleep. sooooo" she trailed off.

"So you think you can play the guitar to put him to sleep." Amity inquired as she duble checked her pockets to see if the crystals were still there. To her relief they were still there, a sliver of movement caught her eye. When Lus left that one tapestry it moved back to conceal something. Naturally curious, and that fact that she felt Luz being flustered a minute ago intruiged her. 

She silently slinked over to the tapestry in question but before she could move it her ears twitched at the sound of some notes being strumed on the guitar, She turned her head to see Luz sitting on the floor with the guitar in her lap. Her eyes were squinted in concentration as she poked a bit of her tongue out as she tried to find the right song. After a minute of it she seemed to pick a song and notice Amity was staring at her.

"UMM, ITS GOOD STRUMMING LUZ!" Amity said quickly before speedwalking to the other side of the room to hide her gay panic. She leaned her head against the wall and tried to stop looking like a tomato. After a few minutes of trying to regulae her breathing and feeling Luz's confusion she decided to turn around.

"Sorry about that, had smething stuck in my throat." She lied as Luz narrowed her eyes in suspicion. Thirty seconds passed before Luz shrugged and stood up before slinging the guitar on her back. "Do you think were ok to go now?" She asked as Amity went over to the door. She pushed her ear against the wood to hear what was going on the other side. After not hearing anything she waved Luz over to help her move the cabinet out of the way.

Luz sowly opened the door and led Amity out and down a hallway. As they were walking Luz began to ramble about strange things from her realm. Big hunks of metal that can fly without magic. Knobs that can change the tempurature, but only inside a building. And if you put a block on your face you can go to fantastical worlds. Most of it sounded fake but Amity liked hearing Luz talk.

As they were walking Luz got distracted and tripped over a rock and landed on her leg. Both Luz and amity Winced at the same time and let out a hiss of pain. They looked at eachother then back to their respective right legs. Both girls moved their dress up to see their leg and than stole a glance at the other girls leg.

On the side of both girls right shin was a two inch bruise that was formng quickly. Amity bit her lip and pressed the darkend skin and stifled a yelp, Luz however let out a hiss at the phantom pain. Amity let her dress drop and bent over to offer her hand to Luz. The teenager took it eagerly but when she did a small spark was transfered between them.

"That was weird" Amity said as she pulled luz of the ground, once they were at eye level Amity noticed something weird in Luz's eyes. It might have been a trick of the light but she could swearshe saw some gold specks in Luz's brown eyes.  She shook her head and looked forward down the path. The scrape of the Minotaurs axe echoed throughout the halls.

Amity swallowed her fear and started walking forward. She grunted as the dress restricted her movement. Luz followed behind her and whistled every once in a while at the wall mosaics and art. Every once in a while the art depicted her and Luz figting monsters and demons. Even rarer there was scenes of battles they have actually fought.

There was a scene of the two of them locked in battle against Nightmare Otabin. Luz had just been grabbed by the horrid creature. Luz loked terrified as an Amity reached her hand out for the girl. The look on Amity was fear and desperation, she may not have liked Luz but she didnt want to lose her.
