A nightmares Journey (remastered)

chapter 7 always trouble with the guests

I had another strange dream. I ran around the lair.feeling that anything is wrong. Ive seen something horrorfying. I've seen roger, lying around. his Arms where ripped apart, I gasped and wanted to walk torwards him. But I could not. Something was holding me back and it hurted on my ankle. I got heavily chained on both side of my feed. This pain felt like real. Next to me was Maxwell hanging on the wall. His Wrists was chained and like me he was chained on his ankle. He even looked beaten up. " there is no hope for us! Not even for roger, Artist Alira. " Maxwell said "who was it?" I asked "you don't want to know it..." the Bellhop awnsered. He passed out infront of my black red eyes. The weirdest thing was he started to melt very fast. The more he dripped the more of his textures fell on the floor. Soon he was gone and his clothes fell on the floor. As I turned my head to look away at rhe terrible sight I saw the child with the yellow raincoat from before. She smirked at me. "So alone now?" She asked and laughed "well.... now..." the kid continued and opened her mouth to hiss at me. She showed me very urealistic sharph teeth. Like these from a shark. She jumped at me.

As I woke up I gasped loudly. I was in panic. Why was I chained? Why roger and Maxwell got badly injured in the worst conditions, why the kid wanted to attack me. After breathing through realized it was morning after I looked around my room. Instinctly I sat infront of the wallpaper where I started to draw the portrait of the Bellhop. I felt like forgetting this nightmare fastly once I was concerned to draw. Like usually in my entire life. Suddenly I felt what I did not felt long ago. The thirst of going out of my quarters. So I took my key, left my half done portrait and the quarters and closed the door. No one arrived at my quarters. The voice in my mind spoke again to me "its time to pick up your orders! You needed more materials" it said. I noded and made my way downstairs. I walked from the dinning hall to the entry. I met cecil, who stared at me with his dull sheep eyes. I was still upset at him and walked to the ferryman who growled at me. Cecil noticed the ferryman's behavior and growled back "don't you dare!" Cecil growled. I looked shortly at the chef I showed how upset I was at him with a mad expression following by a snarl. Then I took a box of brushes and oil paints and made my way back.

As I entered the dinning hall I got stopped by Hans, Jürgen and other two Guests. They both where females. One of them looked older as the other. The first one, tueqoise dressed, wearing glasses almost greyish skinned puffed her cigar on my face and looked sharbly at me while the other, red headed in leopard markings on her dresses stared at me in a sassy way. " you see now,hun? Its 'the artist!' Can't you see my problem?!" Hans explained. Jürgen was really close at the blonde guest while the grey haired one puffed her smoke at my face "I see! She would be end up as our dinner if she won't watch out!" She said. Her voice was very deep and rusty through the Cigars she smoked. It almost sounded more like a man "you must be the starving pet my husband told me about? Very pityful thing you are! Did not found another place to life huh? " she asked " may I introduce her? Ramona!" Hans said "quiet hun! It would be pain if she knows me!" The grey haired guest replied and puffed another cigar at me "really... big... pain" Ramona threathned me. I snorted at her statement "what are you gonna do?" I asked "did you just talk back at me?!" Ramona asked "you should have respect from the employees" I said "RESPECT?! A UGLY FILTHY PET BITCH LIKE YOU DO NOT DESERVE RESPECT!!! EVEN LESS THEN THE FRICKING MELTING BELLHOP AND THE TINY UGLY JANITOR!!!" ramona yelled . Cecil came by and watched the situation from far away because he could not let himself be seen by me. "How you wanna know that?!"I asked to Ramona "Bitch please! Dont you get in your brain?! You are ugly!" The red haired guest awnsered. Jürgen Laughed at her statement "julietta Funny!" He said "HAHA WELL MAYBE THIS IS WHY SHE WEARS THIS WEIRD MASK! " Ramona broke in laughter. I felt a knot in my throat wich reached in the chest "YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A FILTHY VERMIN!!! ALL YOU SEE IS HIDING IN A HOLE!!!.BECAUSE YOU ARE A DISGUSTING CREATURE" ramona yellet at me " I bet she won't get a man at all so ugly is she! And to stupid she is either" julietta said. "YOU GOT IT GIRL?!.YOU ARE SHIT" Ramona yelled and threw the empty smoked burning cigar at my face. "DO YOU HEAR IT PEST?! GET TO THE DUMBSTER WHERE YOU COME FROM!"Julietta yelled and pushed me with her weigh down so I fell down. Cecil letted out a loud dull growl at the situation as he sae the whole thing i was burried in my Materials, I stood up and picked up my stuff in the box again. The Mental pain was too big. I could not resist. I broke in tears. Cecil wanted to help me up and to comfort me, but he forgot that I was still upset. I pushed him with one hand "STAY AWAY!!! I AM JUST A TRASH FOR ALL OF YOU " I yelled. I picked up my box and rannoff crying. All I wanted now was to be in my save quarters. So I ran upstairs to my room. After I closed the door I leaned on it and cried myself out. All the things these guests said hurted me. So bad and their actions ripped me appart. Was THIS what roger and maxwell had to deal with every year? Every guest season? Am I part of it too? Why do they have to be cruel? I thougt I had been through the bullying stuff long ago. How wrong I was. After I calmed down I stood up and walked to the portrait. And I just continued painting in tears. No matter how I felt, I need to do my Orders. After Hours I was done with the Bellhop's portrait. I hooked him next to the Janitor. I found two Wallpapers wich was just half big as my first two. So I got an Idea. I sketched the twinchefs half in half. First half Cecil and the secand half. Suddenly someone knocked at my door. I was not in a mood yet to chit chat so I asked "what?" Maxwell was behind my quarters "is anything alright madame? I heard you crying earlier..." he asked. I sighed "come in..." I answered still broken while I mixed up the paints. The bellhop opened the door. He had some dinner on his plate "you seemed very upset by the transport... so... here cecil got you... a little comfort" he explained "cecil?" I said and snorted " I am just a boring trash for him" I replied and looked at him, after crying I had very bad eyeshade "wow... you look horrible... even for someone who can't see colours" maxwell said and walked closer to me to give me the goodies "thanks... for the food" I said and I took it. Once I had the plate I started to eat like it was some potatochip on a shell. "What happened? I heared you get some trouble with the guests?" Maxwell asked "its true" I answered "they think they could take employees down with their disrespect.... " I continued "but why? You are not a mutant" maxwell asked " I am...still... a human and I have been seen like a pet or like a vermin for them" I answered " they told me bad things... I am just trash" I continued. The more I explained the more the pain came back. While talking I startef to cry again. "They told me I am ugly, , I wouldn't get a man, and I shall not deserve respect even less then you and the janitor" I cried. Maxwell seemed to be in shock "I...I am sorry about-" he started while I fall on his arms "Oh Max!" I cried. The bellman was scared at the sudden movement of mine. Then he shlowly petted me while blushing "there there... soon they will regret it" Maxwell said and growled a bit. I was irritated at the noise. I released the hug just tomlook at him. The only thing I came in my mind was to say "by the way... I am done with the Portrait for you" maxwell looked at the wall. His eyes got shiny as he noticed my painting. "That is so sweet of you, madame"the bellhop said. He stood up and softly took of the painting. He looked at it. "Thank you..."he said. I smiled. I felt cheerful that someone liked my gifts. Suddenly I heard Ruccus from downstairs. "What the"
These noises hit my curiousity. "Take the portrait with you in your quarters please... I need to check out what is happening! " i said. I stood up and walked with Maxwell who had the picture out of our quarters. We both hushed down stairs. The closer we got the smore I realize the rumpus happened at the dinninghall.

As we both got to the dinning hall there was already lunch. But it wad not that for what I was looking for. There where the whole family of Peter I met. All in one infront of the Janitor. Peter was far away behind the family together with wilma. Hans was about to beat up Roger while Jürgen looked at his shoe. I looked at the Maxwell "please get to your quarters... I'm afraid. it will be really hard to watch" I said. I ran to Hans and pushed him aside. Hans fell on a table where a pair of other Guests sat before, crawling away from the chaos. Roger looked at me in a shocked manner. he snarled at me,grinding his teeth in a nervouse act. He held a kid wich cried and curlef herself soon I realized they were in pain. I turned to the family "look... a fitting pair of useless ugly creatures!" Julietta said while Jürgen noded and letted out a dull laughter. "Quiet you slobs!" I said "what did you just called us?" Ramona asked " slobs! Big fat little slobs!" I answered roger growled at me in a nervous way "let me talk roger!" I said to the Janitor " in our towns big people like you get threaten like you did to me and to this janitor just because of how fat you are!" I growled "besides these kind like me could be even worse then you will ever be!" I said. Hans growled at me "we'll see if you are really this dangerous!" The guest said and stood up from the table. He ran to me with full speed. Before I was going to react he bit me on my right Arm. I was in big pain. It hurted me and I literally from how my Arm got broken. This pain was incredible. Even worse than all of the wounds. Hans threw me to the next Table. As I opened my Eyes I knew what I shall do instead of curling myself in pain.

The whole family stood side by side infront of me, ready to chase me. I stood up, putting myself up with one an healthy arm. Maxwell came back from the quarters an stood next to the Janitor. "RUN ARTIST!!" Peter yelled from the distance. "THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO STAND AROUND SAVE YOURSELF" Wilma said. Hans wanted to attack me again but I reacted faster this time. I fleed from a family of four bulbous guests followed by the other guests who instinctly followed them. I realized I ran from a huge stampede. I concentrated myself only how I shall get rid of the stampedw behind me. I ran around the quarters and even more guests  joined the wild foxhunt leaded by the crazy family.  A table was on my way as i kept running. If I jumped on they would stop I thought. Oh how wrong I was this time.  After I jumped on the long table they climbed on it. Sooner I reached a Balcony. I jumped on the balcony and with a big state I jumped into another one. The family followed me until the balcony. I panted exhausted and looked at the guests who reached the balcony.  Hans layed his whole weight to the Balcony wich broke. He fell into the deep. Jürgen jumped with him to save him. I was shocked as I saw the two falling down. There was only the two large womans infront on me "you....KILLED OUR LOVELINGS!!!  " Ramona yelled. I looked at the two guests while the others turned back from where they came from "REMEMBER!!! THIS TIME YOU WILL MAY GET THROUGH WITH IT!!! BUT NEXT TIME WE WILL TAKE YOU DOWN UNTIL YOU CAN'T SEE OR HEAR ANYTHING" Ramona yelled "WE WILL KILL YOU" julietta yelled
  " YOU WILL SEE!!! NEXT TIME YOU WILL NOT HAVE THIS MUCH LUCK,GIRL" Ramona yelled. I just watched the two fat womans. The two ones where leaving me and only peter was left in shock. Then he giggled "don't worry... I hoped that my brother would die. You and the mutants are not the only one who are getting im trouble. In the city everyone hated him " peter said.  Wilma noded in agreement I looked at the nicer guests " I think you should watch your friends. And cure yourself. " peter said. At this point the Pain hitted me again "your arm seems to be very broken... " peter mentioned. I noded "OBVIOUSLY!" I yelled in pain "however.... meet us at the guests quarters once you get better.... I need to tell you something." Peter said. I noded confused. What is it that he wanted?. However he turned to get back to his quarters. I was in big pain. But something hitted me... In needed to check out roger. That kid did not seemed like they shall die. I used a elevator next to me wich leaded to the Lairs.
