Relax, have a drink, go to the lounge across the hall with your
drink!

He grinned. "Well Chroma, I have to say it's a pleasure." He
looked around the lobby and jerked his head toward the nearby
hallway. "Come on lets get going before this place really feels
up. When she finally stood up, he gently took her elbow and led
her past the crowd and to the hallway, letting her go once they
were there and just looked around. In their search they found a
library, with a little blur moving around it top speed. It kept
squeaking. Hmm, the fairy girl? They continued on their journey
till the found the bar. Across from that was a lounge. Another
white hologram projector came up out of the bar, a white image
being projected from it. "Hello sir and madam, what would you
like to drink?" The robotic voice came along. "I'd like
ah....some wine. Vintage if you have it." Matteus responded
curious to see what would happen. A wine glass slid down the bar
from out of nowhere it seemed and in front of him. He sniffed it
then tasted it. It was wine alright. Damned good wine at that!
He waited for her to get her drink and wandered across the
halls, taking a seat in on a rather comfortable white couch next
to a fire place and coffee table. Perfect. He sat down his drink
on the coffee table and pulled out a vial, a few drops into his
drink, turning the deep red wine a purple color. The drink
bubbled and hissed then let out a big puff of smoke that was
pure black. Matteus lifted the drink to his lips and sighed. "Ah
perfect." When he first started to make the drink it was
horrible, but he had a friend who managed to make a sweet
concoction that was quite delicious. "Tell me Chroma, what is
your hair made of?"

Chroma blushed brightly as he took her by the elbow and lead her
around. They seemed to pass a few rooms. Someone or something
seemed to be in the library but he didn't stop. Matteus, she
watched him as they walked. He seemed strong. And he had this
air around him. Maybe she ought to be scared of him. But the
beauty of his voice, just the thought of it... and then he spoke
again. Wine? Oh! They'd made it to the bar. She seemed not very
talkative, quite shy. She murmured something about a water and
one came sliding to her and she took it and followed Matteus to
where he sat.
For a moment she stood there awkwardly, but then he addressed
her and she blushed, scrambling to sit down. "I.. It's paint..."
She looked at her water and then back up at him, her face
slightly pink.. "It's paint... a.. and sometimes.. if i have
really strong emotions its more of one color." She blushes
brightly. And as she did, more tinges of pink and yellow
appeared in her hair. "A.. Ah.. d.. darn.."

Paint, that was so interesting. So unique. He took a sip of his
drink and sat it down, then leaned back on the couch. "I hope
they don't mind my appearance. They kind of pulled me out of a
particular situation." He didn't go into details but his eyes
flashed to his arm, then away just as fast. "So tell me Chroma,
where did you come from?" He looked to her tilting his head. The
girl was quite beautiful. And her hair had so many beautiful
colors in them. His mind mildly played at what kind of colors he
could turn that hair by doing what to her. He bet it would turn
red if he dragged his nail along her neck and chin. But he would
leave that kind of thing for if she and him managed to draw
closer.
He thought back to the one girl he loved. His old bosses
daughter. Years ago he had been close with her. They were even
going to have a baby together. But she killed herself and the
baby just before she was due leaving a note behind for Matteus.
"My dearest love. I love you very much. So much that I selfishly
took as much time with you as I could, but as my due date grows
nearer I must tell you, the child isn't yours. It belongs to my
father. He has been sneaking into my room since I was a child.
I'm so sorry. This wasn't your fault my love. I just couldn't
bring my fathers child into this world. We are already freaks
and I couldn't do that to our child. I love you. -The Amazon
Woman and yours Truly Kenna." Matteus shook his head, the memory
bringing sadness to him. That life was over now. His revenge
exacted. Now was the present. And it was the time to act like
it.

Chroma set her water down, and sat up a bit more, trying to look
comfortable next to this man. Because even with how nervous she
was, she felt calm next to him. Looking at her knee's she took a
deep breath. She murmured under her breath, a rivulet far from
the original river, "I most certainly don't mind you shirtless."
She wasn't really paying attention to the blood anymore.
Wiggling her nose to adjust to the now wet tissue in it, she
looked up at him finally.
Now she sounded like a babbling brook, "Le.. let's just say
that.. I come from a world where having hair like this is a
curse. I don't know what people may think here. But... they
haven't locked me away yet..." She hugged herself and shivered,
all the colors starting to look darker, and muted.... "O.. or
tried to torture or change me with that horrid black ink.." She
seemed to sink into herself a bit, but she shook her head and
looked at him. He had done the same thing just moments ago.. Had
he... been thinking about something bad too?
She gave him a small smile, her sunset colored eyes glinting in
the light. Her hair starting to look a bit brighter again. "I...
I'm sorry, but.. I can't get over how beautiful your voice is..
I.. I had to say something, before you had a chance to leave."
She blushed a bit, and a little more pink started to show in her
hair.

Matteus stared at Chroma in shock. "Are you serious? Color means
life. Your hair is beautiful. If someone were to attempt to lock
you up for that I would have to step in." He looked down at his
blood stained pants and hand. "Trust me, I know what it's like
to be gawked at and have people wince when you walk by because
of the way you look. Your hair is anything but a curse Chroma."
He couldn't help himself. He reached up and touched it softly.
His fingers moving into the paint. "W-wow, it actually feels
like paint, yet it also kinda feels like hair. It's something I
find myself lucky to be able to see." He chuckled when she said
his voice was beautiful, but stopped when her hair changed to a
pink color. That must have been like a blush for her!
"That is not the first thing I usually hear about my voice, but
I do appreciate it! Most think I'm about to eat them or
something." His chuckles came out just as sinister and maniacal
sounding as his own voice. He noticed her tissues were now
becoming soaked through, and as if by magic tissues appeared on
the coffee table. He picked up the box and handed to her. "Okay
that's just weird, I thought it happened before but I didn't say
anything. I know that box was not there a moment ago." He
wondered how that happened. Was this place magical or something?
Was that how he got here?

When he spoke on how color was life she just shook her head. "I
was locked up and tortured for years. I almost died once...
But.. someone let me out." She smiled a bit at him and then
blushed even brighter when his hand felt through her hair. She
shivered, her hair cool and wet to the touch, and even soaking
the blood away from his fingers. "I... I'm glad you think so..
But this hair has brought me nothing but pain." Her hair was
almost completely hot pink, but hints of the other colors were
still there.
"I... I like unique things.. hehe.. like.. your voice for
example." She bit her lip and leaned against his hand a little.
"Y... you know... it.. just strikes a chord with me." She looks
at him and then smiles when he hands her the tissue, "I was
pretty sure before too. I knew there hadn't been a box beside
you...or else I would have landed on it." She tried to look away
a bit to hide her blush, but she didn't want to pull away from
his hand.
She quickly fixed the tissue for her nose. "I.. I don't think
I'm doing this right.. Should I be sitting in a different
position?" She patted at her nose to make sure the tissue
stayed. Her river of a voice wavers a bit. "I.. It will stop
right?" She looked up to Matteus, hoping he'd know the answer,
hoping she hadn't broken something.

He smiled, and pulled his hand away listening to her story, but
his smile faded as it went on about her torture and captivity.
"Well Chroma, if you are in my presence I will never allow
anyone to torture you because of your hair, it really is a gift
and it's beautiful. I really like it. And I like odd things too,
unique things. I think that's what drew me to the amazon woman I
dated once." His eyes got really distant for a moment as if he
weren't even there but they came back as fast as they had left.
Smiling back to her. "Uh no, don't tilt your head back. Blood
could run down your throat and drown you. Here."
He pulled the tissues away and had her tilt her head back only
slightly, looking for any sign of a break, lightly running the
tips of his fingers over her nose. Barely touching it. "Well it
looks like it's just bruised. It's gonna be one hell of a purple
color and probably swell up a little, but nothing severe, here
lean forward a little. " He gently pushed her head forward and
put a tissue to the end of it. "Squeeze the tip of your nose
okay? And relax." He stood and walked out of the lounge over to
the bar and got a cup of ice, then came back. "Alright let me
see it again." He squeezed the tip of her nose gently still and
ran an ice cube over her lips. "It helps to lower your body
temperature as well."
He had learned so much about this kind of stuff being a freak in
a freak show fights broke out. People wanted to hurt all of them
because they were different. He didn't know how many broken
noses he's had to put back into place. "The good news is you
will survive." He said playfully and smiled.

Chroma looked at him but listened to every order he gave her,
and a small sigh of relief passed her lips after hearing it
wasn't broken. She blushed and squirmed just slightly as he put
ice on her lips. She could barely think right now, let alone
come up with an answer to his dislike of her torture. She sat
there and just smiled at him when he was done. "T.. Thank you.."
she said with a small burble of a laugh.
She catches his hand in hers, "And I'm sure she was a wonderful
person. Just as you are." She smiled and pet his hand a little
bit. "You know... I don't think that person that let me out..
knew what was going on.. they looked like an outsider to the
village.... though I was lucky they hadn't put me in the black
room." She looked up at him. Memories from back then so painful
it showed on her face.. and her hair started turning this nasty
puke green/yellow. "The things they did to me... the pain it
caused... It was so...inhumane... they kept telling me I wasn't
one of them..." She shook her head. "All I know is that i'm glad
to be out of there.. and would never go back, even if given the
chance." There were tears starting to well up in her eyes. "Not
now.. now that I know people can actually appreciate it... my..
uniqueness. Even if they don't know everything about it."

She seemed alright after a bit. But when she touched his hand he
froze. Unsure how to react. She seemed to be petting it and to
be honest, he kind of liked it. Though her story was sad, and
her hair changed. She began to cry. Oh shit, what was he
supposed to do now? He looked around. Tissues weren't the
answer. Not this time. Matteus sighed. "Chroma, you don't have
to go to that place. Just like I don't have to go back where I
came from. We are free now. Free from what bound us to the
worlds before. And I do think your hair is beautiful! Don't
cry..."
He awkwardly wrapped his arms around her, hugging her. Hoping
that was alright, he gently rocked her back and forth, holding
her close. His fingers moved into her hair and gently held it in
his fist. "Shhh it's alright hun. You don't have to go back
there. I wont let anyone take you back there. Shhhhh." Matteus
didn't know what he was doing in making that promise, but he
intended to keep it. Even if it killed him. Was he moving on
from his sweet Amazon woman? Was this why he was brought to the
Hotel Macabre?
