	While Sunshine led the way, Zeke tugged at his new shirt and hair. He was suddenly nervous, but it wasn’t the same way he got nervous before a fight. He and Demetri didn’t exactly end their conversation on the best of terms, and between looking after himself and worrying for Nancy, Ezekiel didn’t contact Demetri again. He could only imagine how disappointed Demetri was. What if he was going to break up with Zeke? After all, the douche party god had Demi to himself for the last three days.

	Ezekiel sighed and ran a hand through his hair, giving up on making sure it fell properly. He glanced over at Nancy. He knew she would run with him and avoid this whole mess if he asked. Of course, if they left, the chances of the others making it out alive were slim to none. All the people selected for a quest were chosen for a reason. Each of them had lessons to learn and strengths to provide for the benefit of the group.

	[color=#EEE8AA]”Just another hotel, right?”[/color] He opted for nudging Nancy’s arm rather than looping his around hers. Zeke might have wanted the contact, but he wasn’t sure Nancy would appreciate it. She might think she was trapped. [color=#EEE8AA]”I mean, I know it’s not, but… Dad said you wouldn’t be caught in their spell again, so um…”[/color] Ezekiel nervously rubbed the back of his neck. He wouldn’t be able to help Nancy in there. Aside from Joanie, Sunshine, and maybe the golden halo with legs, Nancy would have to figure out how to break them free on her own. [color=#EEE8AA]”Just remember you aren’t alone, okay? I know I will be out of commission, but I’m still there. I’ll still be here for you, even when you go off and be a badass with Aunt Artemis. And you have Joanie, and Mads, and Niah. They are always with you even if they aren’t physically.”[/color]

	They rounded the corner, and the Lotus Hotel finally came into view. Ezekiel took a deep breath and let it out slowly, looking up at the place. His eyes scanned down, and they landed on a familiar group. His eyes searched until they found Demetri’s. The weight of Demetri’s watch and bracelet pulled on his arm. [i]Gods, please let us be okay. Eros save us, Aphrodite, let us move on.[/i]

	Sunshine bounded ahead and wound himself around Janelle’s legs. [color=#EEE8AA]”That’s Sunshine,”[/color] he informed her. [color=#EEE8AA]”According to Dad, they’ll lead us to the door downstairs.”[/color] Ezekiel glanced up at the hotel before his eyes drifted back to Demetri. His eyes slowly roamed over Demetri, growing more concerned. He glanced at Nancy and then back. Ezekiel shifted his pack, pulled it open and produced the fruit from this morning. He had been hoping Nancy would get her appetite back, but by the looks of it, Demetri needed the food as well. [color=#EEE8AA]”Eat.”[/color] He handed the fruit to Demi.
