Welcome to Gaia! ::

After a few minutes Leo's body stopped shaking but he hadn't woken up, his body was so exhausted and his mind was too strained to awaken. He was breathing but just barely, his pulse was still rapid from the violent fits his body went through. It was almost as if he were sleeping, he was dreaming about pleasant things from his childhood for once and he didn't want to wake up from them.

Leo opened his eyes a few minutes later but he could barely move, he took a deep breath and whined. "Ash...? What happened?" he asked softly, his whole body felt sore like he had been swimming or exercising for hours without rest. "Everything hurts...." he said softly as he focused on breathing a little more.

Leo winced a bit as his brother moved him to the couch, his body still sore and tender. "I feel like I'm being crushed by a boulder...." he whined as he laid on the couch with his head on Asher's lap. "Ragnarok Hotel.......I've heard of it....other kids in school said it was abandoned...a few said it was haunted." he said softly, barely remembering much of anything after that jolt to his brain.

Leo smiled a little, glad that he was able to help, even if it hurt to do so. After laying with his brother on the couch, Leo finally was able to get some sleep without any nightmares to wake him up. He slept almost the entire day, waking up only as the sun was beginning to set and feeling much better than when he went to sleep in the first place. "How long was I sleeping?" he asked his brother, feeling the familiar texture of his brother's pajama pants under his head before sitting up and rubbing his eyes gently.

Leo groaned a bit as he stretched upright, his body was still stiff but at least he wasn't sore anymore and he could actually move his limbs this time. "I'm fine." he said softly, now testing his legs to see if they could hold his weight. Leo wobbled a little but he quickly regained balance and sighed as he continued to listen to his brother. Leo shook his head. "******** the police. We're doing this ourselves." he said softly, it was a rare occasion when Leo cursed, it wasn't the fact that he was taught to not curse but rather that he didn't find many occasions worthy of such nasty words. But in this case he couldn't care less about the police. He was bound and determined to do this himself, even if his brother didn't want to help. "Does the car still work?" he asked softly, it had been such a long time since they sat in their car. Ash's work was only a few blocks away from the house and they often didn't have money for gas so they usually almost never used to the car. Although Leo wasn't entirely sure how far the hotel was, he knew that they would definitely need a way to escape the horrible place quickly in case things got bad.

Leo followed his brother so he could change as well, he didn't even care that he was changing in front of his brother. Leo made sure to put on a pair of long jeans, sneakers, a shirt, and a black jacket so as to not look suspicious. He trusted the jacket was black because it was the only one he had, really. Leo rushed downstairs when he was finished, not even bothering with his hand on the wall as there was too much on his mind to focus his attention on where he was going. Besides he knew their apartment like the back of his hand, there was not one corner of the place he didn't know about. "Lets go." he instructed as he walked right out the door, using a rather authoritative voice that was unbecoming of Leo, he was always a follower but right now he needed to be a leader.

Leo needed to hold onto Ash's arm, it had been a long time since they used the car last that Leo actually forgot where it was. Once he was inside, instinct took over and he quickly got his seat belt in place, staring out the window. Even though he technically couldn't see anything, he could at least tell if it was dark or light outside. The rest was a blurry mess that looked much like an oil painting of random blobs. "How about a shotgun blast to the groin?" he mumbled softly, but in reality he thought that the only weapons they had to their advantage were their legs, fists, teeth and voices. Although with the abandoned hotel being their destination, their voices might not get them very far.

Leo took a deep breath. "No....let's go." he said softly, as he got out of the car and moved around it to where his brother was, waiting to take his arm and prepared to count the number of steps it took to get from the car to the next area of the hotel. "Walk slowly, I'm still not used to counting my steps." he said softly.
