Vivian POV:

"Hello H-hollow, can you help us find a place to set up shop for the night? It seems it's gonna be a big storm at nightfall..." I said, looking up at the grey sky, seeing all the clouds move so fast, the sound of very distant thunder roaring.

"Yes, follow me" the strange creature said as they led me and Goombella to a large building. And once we entered... I instantly recognized it.

"The stage..." I said, looking around, it seemed to be destroyed, but how could that be? We had a fight a few hours ago? There were holes in the roof, water leaking from pipes... but we could definitely fix this.

"Goombella, start working on the roof, I'll work on the pipes. Okay?" To which she nodded. And grabbed a ladder. So when I went back stage I saw the leaks. Shutting off the water, I started tightening the pipes, as that's where the leaks were coming from. By the time I walked back out. The roof was fixed. But the stage was still covered in vines and other greenery...

But checking the back stage rooms, one had a few beds, and looked luxurious... "I wouldn't mind staying here" I said to myself, but I grabbed some mops and brooms and vegans cleaning up the floors. The fear in my face when we heard stomping outside was visible.

"Hollow, what is tha-" I tried to ask them, but they put a hand over my mouth to keep me quiet. "No sounds..." as we went further into the night, the stomping grew further. So I continued cleaning until the whole floor was clean. Allowing us to have a clean floor and stage.

"Well... I guess we just sleep now? I don't see much else to do today..." I asked, Goombella nodded, clearly exhausted. And as we laid down in bed. What we saw before we passed out... well it shocked me to my core... the metallic walking noises, everything... it was terrifying... but it didn't seem rude... more cuddly then anything...

Hello! Sorry for such a late chapter, I know I could do better, but lately I have been focusing on my mental health!- well, trying to. But the point is that I'll try to have more long chapters next time I write. I just don't know when that will be! Anyways, have a wonderful day/night.
