He almost fell down the stairs, running as qiuckly as his poor feet would allow him.. Reaching the last stair, and flying through the curtain, he again entered the seeminly empty blue room. Where her long heavy coat had hung just a minute ago, there was nothing. She had gone.. Rushing to the door, he tore it open in time to see a large fist come pounding down, wanting to hammer onto the door. A dark hagar silouette stood before him and started to growl out words he thought heŽd heard before, but couldnŽt understand.. Not listening to the deep voice, he tried to look around the shadow covered person before him, trying to see if Cozy has been caught by this large person and his/itŽs clan. The barbarian moved to block his sight, all-the-while continuing to talk this jibberish.. He called out to her "Cozy, are you out there, are you alright..?". No answer.. Ape man then tried pushing him aside, wanted to enter the room. A sickening stench floated into the room. The heavy smell of smog, the body odours of this barely human beast, all mixed together clogging his nose, making him gag. The cold air whipped against his feet, sending shivers up his spine. This was why he so loved this room. It was so quiet and CLEAN.. none of these barbarians knew of it, or it would long ago have been destroyed by their hatred to peace. He moved quickly, for he was not as large, or as slow as this drunk fool. Grasping the heavy wooden door, he tried closing the door, which almost worked.. The drunken beast stuck itŽs large, in leather boots dressed foot in the doorwell, just so the door would not quite close.. He pushed with all his might, but the beast wouldnŽt move his foot. He tried opening the door a bit, to come slamming down on the foot, but the beast was so drunk, it didnŽt bother him.. He heard loud angry voices outside.. If they all pushed from the outside, he would have no chance.. Sweat ran down his forehead.. Behind him he heard the click-clack of high heels on the marble floor.
Looking over his shoulder, he saw Cozy drawing closer, reaching inside her cloak, and pulling out a large knife. She raised it above her head, and with an open mouth scream, she ran towards him.. He gulped hard!!! Was this his end? He had tried to talk to her, thought she was different, but now it seemed as if she belonged to the group outside.. Perhaps they had made arrangements to meet here. Turning his head away from the enraged young woman, not wanting to see her plant the knife in his back.. He closed his eyes and held his breath.. A howl of pain filled the room.. The echos bounced off the walls, deafening him..
He felt no pain, and it wasnŽt him screaming.. He opened his eyes to see Cozy at his feet, removing the long blade from the boot of this hagar beast.. The beast pushed against the door, allowing itself some room, and pulled itŽs foot out with a jerk. The door flew shut, cause he was still pushing like a nut.. He reaches up quickly to drop the wooden latch. "There, that ought to do it," he said..
She was cleaning her knife on the long cloak she wore. "Friends of yours??" he asked.. grinning. She looked up, and he saw those two large eyes.. Her face was young and beautiful, but still there was much pain written within. She had `frout wrinkles`along her forehead.. What might have happened to this poor young woman, what has she been through? She gazed at him, her eyes not blinking.. it was almost as if she was looking through him.. `Thanks anyway" he said.. "You just saved my life.." He smiled friendly and something amazing happened.. She too smiled.. ;-)) Her whole face lit up, and it warmed his heart.. "Now thatŽs more like it" he said.. "Shall we have a seat, or do we want to wait infront of this door the whole night?".. They moved away from the door, towards the table and itŽs heavy chairs.. Behind them fists beat against the door, hard beats that made the walls vibrate. But they were certain the door would hold.. It was made of massive wood anyway.. Walking beside her, he pulled out a chair, and as she took a seat, he gently shoved it under her.. He walked around the table to take a seat across from her, so they would be looking directly at each other.. The candles flickering light played games with the shadows on her face.. She stared at the dancing flame... He sat there and waited for her to start speaking.. he didnŽt know if she even wanted to speak to him.. maybe just wait till the barbarians had stopped hammering against the door and had gone off into the night to find some other poor creature to bother.. He wanted to read her thoughts, which might have been possible if she had not again put on her "nothing face". He sat and listened to the crackling fire, felt the cold draught dance across his feet.. Should he put another log on the fire or will she soon be leaving?? He waited for her to make the first move..
