I watched as he stumbled out of the chair, wringing his wrists out, and turned to me with a half-hearted smile. "Well, thank you for releasing me. But why did you tie me up just to untie me?" Eko sighs in confusion. Is he playing with me right now? he just assaulted an old man just to get to me and run away like he didn't do anything- what the hell is his problem? I never expected a tall, buff man with curly black hair and strange silver clothing to just be rude to others like he owned the place. He looked at me with those salty green eyes of his as he looked me up and down, and a slight smirk brushed his lips, but it soon faded just as quickly. Then he proceeded to step closer to me, and I quickly took a step back. He noticed and stopped. "Why? I thought you were in danger, so I-" I interrupted him. "Why!? Isn't it obvious that I took you down because you assaulted an old man? After all, do you need to get to me? Excuse you? No. You just wanted to have a hero moment because you just had to impress me? For what to be your plaything; hell no." he then quipped in to say. "Well, not exactly; after the thing with your ex, I think he's your ex. Well, anyway, I heard the guards, and they want you locked up. So, I'm here to rescue you. I'm not sure, but it felt right... I'm sorry if that was wrong of me." he pouts. His salty green eyes glittered as if to say he really didn't mean to if it meant I was in trouble. I let out a soft sigh, headed to the door, and opened it up for him.

"Well, if you have to be destructive, please get more information before you act on impulse, please?" I look up at him, and he softly smiles at me to say he agrees. It's all I need to not look behind me to know he'll be following behind me like a golden retriever. As I am now a fellow criminal, I have to be careful and gather information about her, Her Highness the Queen. As if on cue, my wolf friend comes into view just in the nick of time to tell me important news. "May! I have news: the Queen is captured, and we need to get into a building. I'll tell you more inside." He huffs as he walks by me, sniffs in Eko's direction, and growls. "Who is he, and why is he here?" he snarls. "He's a friend, Utall. It's okay. He will be helping me find her highness." Blankly staring at Utall, he shifts uncomfortably and walks in the direction of the hotel with nothing to add Ta.z opens the door and follows suit. "Well, might as well go back in..." I say awkwardly. He seems to shift, and his hand goes to the back of his head and scratches it. I wonder if it was actually itchy and left him to stand awkwardly and follow my family into the hotel. "Come on, Curly. Let's go." he fumbles and follows me inside the hotel.

I felt a bit shy looking back at her as she stared into my soul. It seemed she was contemplating something. I shifted under her strong, blue, steely gaze as she nodded her head softly and walked off. "Come on, Curly. Let's go." her bland, expressionless face makes me slightly uncomfortable as it's as if she didn't have a soul. Is she a zombie!? Ugh, she's cute for a zombie-
