I really needed a nap. Falling over fifty feet into the water and nearly being crushed by a giant bird can do that to a guy. So when I opened my eyes to find my bedroom again, I was content on sleeping. Even if I was face down on the floor.
But when I heard humming, I stood at attention, or tried to anyway. When I did manage to stand, I found I wasn't alone. Leaning on my desk was Elizabeth with a black look in her eyes.
"Bring us the girl, while away the debt." she said, no emotion in her voice.
Okay I was concerned now, "Elizabeth? Are you alright?" I asked, but she just hummed that same lullaby I heard earlier, suddenly the door banged. Ok, the absolute last thing I need is my brother finding a girl in my room with no explanation.
My mom and dad on the other hand where... well... they're kind of the nicest people on earth. I know everyone says that when they're in the room with you, but mine seriously are! Like one day my dad and I didn't go to school/work when I was 13 and he took me to see my first R rated movie.
And my mom was like, the kindest hearted woman on the face of the earth. Her mom was a really, and I quote, 'Mega-Bitch' to her and her father so she spoiled me and my brother rotten.
And my brother-"BRING US THE GIRL AND WHIPE AWAY THE DEBT!" I jumped at the demonic voice at the door, reading for my gun, I found that it wasn't there. Shit, as I opened the door, the blinding light made me wish I stated on the floor.
...
After the light died down I felt something hit my chest a few times which hurt, then something push against my lips. Then finally, water exiting my body.
My eyes shot open as I began to spurt water out my mouth and nose. Turning over, I emptied the rest of the water from my lungs. When I fell back onto the ground, I saw a figure over me. When the blinding sunlight died down I saw blue eyes looking down on me.
"Uggggggg, Mom?" I asked, "No it's me, Elizabeth. Are you okay?" she asked, her voice filled with concern. I let out a pained groan.
"My ribs hurt like hell. But I'll be fine." I said, putting a hand over my ribs,
"You almost drowned, you should get some rest. Here, let me help." she said as she took my arm.
When she tried to pull me up my arm felt like it was gonna snap, "Gah!" I exclaimed, she immediately let go.
"Oh god! I'm sorry! I-I didn't.." I waved my hand, "You couldn't have known. Just give me a sec. I'll be fine."
She gave me a skeptical look but accepted my decision. She suddenly turned her head to the side, "Do you hear that? It's music!" I listened closely and she was right, the sounds of a band playing in the distance was proof.
I saw the look of wonder on her face and... aw dammit I can't stand those eyes. "Go on, I'll be fine."
"Are, are you sure?" I could tell she didn't want she didn't want to just brush me off but she deserved some normal in her life after being locked in a tower for most of it. Her eyes had a gleam in it as she stood up, "Okay, okay I won't be long, I won't be long (Y/N)." she said assuring me, but also excited at the idea if music.
As she went off I smiled. I managed to make someone's day happy.
...
When I opened my eyes again I felt better than before, though not by much. My ribs where sore at best but at least I could stand. Now I just needed to find Elizabeth.
Dusting the sand off my cloths, I saw that I was on another impossible feat, a beach on a flying city. Hell by now I wouldn't be surprised if I found a entire ocean up here.
