Author's Note: Here it is, chapter 7. You might still be excited for chapter 11. If you would like, I might write a story about their siblings, but that would be the sequel. Hope you are as excited for this chapter as I am. I'm going to start in the order of Hylia, Farore, Naryu, Din, Erick, Lance, Faron and then Skylar.
Chapter 7
Hylia's Home
Saturday, 3:38
Hylia's P.O.V
I rushed into my home, locking it quickly. Why had I kissed Skylar again? And was Mara behind it?
I walked upstairs only to stop and spot my dad. I rushed up to him, tears slipped down. I hadn't seen him in hours!
"Dad!" I shouted, hugging him immediately, "oh dad!"
"My sweet heart..." He mumbled, hugging me, "I was so worried."
"I was worried about you. I'm sorry I did something so foolish as to walk by myself in the dangerous streets." I muttered, tears falling off the tip of my nose. "I should have told you."
"It's alright, your safe now."
I smiled faintly. "Now that your back, that guy outside wanted to talk to you." He said, motioning out the window, where Skylar was, tapping his foot. "OH." I muttered, walking back down the stairs and opening the door. I quickly slammed it shut and walked over to Skylar.
"Yeah?" I asked, standing up straight.
"Well, Hylia, I wanted to know...er..." He looked up at the window, "I'll talk to you at school ok? Bye." Skylar ran off, I'm guessing he didn't want my dad to see us together, especially since I told him I hated Skylar. I walked back in the house and saw my dad on the phone. He nodded once and hang up.
"Dad? What was that about?" I asked, sitting on the couch relaxing.
"Hylia, I'll tell you in a bit. But I have to go upstairs."
I flicked my hair in his direction and humphed. He could at least tell his daughter something.
Farore's Home
4:07
Farore's P.O.V
I laid down on my bed napping when I heard something coming from downstairs. I'll check it out after my shower...
After the most refreshing shower I had, I walked down the stairs wearing a casual t-shirt and shorts. I looked around the kitchen but couldn't tell the source of the noise I heard. I walked to the door and opened it, expecting someone to have knocked. No one was there? What was it? I hear the phone ring from the dining room. Walking in there, I found my younger brother Forest playing a game. I laughed lightly when he shouted angrily at it.
I picked up the phone.
Farore: Hello? Woods residence.
Mysterious person: May I speak to Forest Woods?
Farore: Er, who is this?
M.P: This is his best friend Malachi.
Farore: Oh, hang on
Malachi: ...ok?
I hand the phone to Forest and leave the room, I hear, "you're here?! Farore open the door for Malachi!"
I shake my head, and open it. Forest's best friend says 'hi' and runs up holding his own phone up to his ear. I walk back into the kitchen and open a bag of chips for the boys.
Naryu's Home
4:38
Naryu's P.O.V
Lance had left, and Allen was just being a bother. My mom had died when Allen was 2, and my dad worked everyday except Sunday from 5am - 10pm. It was rather depressing at the silence of the house. I turned on the TV and scrolled through the channels. Nothing interesting was on so I turned it back off. I walked over to the computer and logged on as myself. 'Nara'. I had a couple of messages which I quickly checked. Just job offers. Wait! If I were to get a job, dad wouldn't have to work so hard, and all I would need is to call Din so she could baby-sit! I rushed over to the phone and dialed Din's home number.
Naryu:...
Other Line:...
Din: Hello?
Naryu: HI! Is this Din?
Din: The one and only... what's going on?
Naryu: I need you to baby-sit Allen while I get a job.
Din: What?! You would have to leave school immediately if you were to get a job, you shouldn't take the night shift, and goodness knows what would happen if you were to take the morning shift. You got school to do!
Naryu: I know, it's risky. But please, if that would happen, my dad wouldn't have to do so much work. And then I can see him more often!
Din: I don't know...
Naryu: Please! It's the best plan I thought of!
Din: Yeah, better than making your dad sick...
Naryu: Hey! I thought they would pay him more and make him work less!
Din: For a girl so wise, that was a dumb idea Naryu.
Naryu: I know, I know. But just come over. Bye.
Din:...hey! Don't hang up on me!
Other Line/Naryu's:...
'Click!'
I hung up and started surfing through my emails. Waiter? No. Chef? No. What about Cashier? Naw. I think I'll just take the waiter job. In order to apply, it required me to answer these questions.
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Name: Naryu Lanara
Desired job: Waiter
Telephone: -
Email: -
Shift wanted: Evening
Days: Weekends besides Sunday, or Weekdays
I finished it up and smiled. All I had to do was send it in. I clicked 'send' and waited. It would probably be replied to in either a couple of hours or next week.
I applied and waited. Kind of like a waiter. I heard the doorbell sound. It must be Din.
Lanara's Doorstep
4:52
Din's P.O.V
I pushed the doorbell button and waited. The door opened immediately and Naryu ushered me inside.
"Ok. I just sent in the application." Naryu said excitedly.
"Gratz." I mumbled, sitting down. "Do I start baby-sitting now?"
"Yep. I'll be heading there to see if they will accept me. Wish me luck!"
"Wish you luck..." I muttered as she shut the door behind her.
What luck...
I shuffled around the room, looking for her brother Allen. He couldn't be far...
"Hi!" A cheery voice said, crunching something.
I turned around and faced Forest, who had a friend beside him, and they were helping themselves to chips.
"Hi. I'm here to baby-sit you." I said
"what? Where's Naryu?"
"Out." I replied
"Going out? She should have told me, I would've given her some advice."
"NO. She went outside." I clarified, not wanting him to think the wrong thing.
"Oh, Ok. Let's have some fun." He grabbed my wrist and dragged me into another room.
Erick's Home
5:10
Erick's P.O.V
I sat on the couch downstairs, Mara sitting next to me. She was fighting back tears, and an occasional sniff disturbed the silence.
"Mara, you're going to be alright. Skylar is just a jerk. He only cares about himself."
"But...I cost you your friendship...you should have left me alone..." She mumbled woefully
"I was protecting you. Just like Mom and Dad taught me." I said, looking outside, "I wonder where they are..."
"I know. I feel so lonely, without you." Mara said sadly
"Don't worry, just forget about Skylar." I replied
"I can't. We used to be best friends. In fact, we had a relationship. But Hylia ruined it. He rejected me, and broke up for Hylia. And from what I heard, they aren't even together." Mara replied, looking at her feet, "I'll take your advice, I'll forget about Skylar. I hate him. He hates me. I'll try to forget about him."
I nodded, and noticed she started to shiver. I handed her the blanket next to me and turned on the TV. Monster Scrapers 2 was on. Monster Scrapers is a series of horror flicks about a two girls and a guy on a haunted island. The first one was when it all started. They boarded a private jet and they crashed landed. Now creepy things are happening. Now, in the second movie, they have another guy, and this time, more scary monsters. I imagined Tao, Me, Mara, and Din being chased by the monsters. Skylar and his gang. I shuddered at the part when a monster grabbed one of the girls. Mara squeaked at it. I changed the channel immediately.
"Let's not watched that." I said, scrolling through. I finally stopped at a chef show before leaving the room.
Lance's Home
5:39
Lance's P.O.V
I arrived home in time to see my mother talking on the phone. Her face showed rage, and she was definitely angry.
"I refuse!" She screamed angrily
"I don't care what you 'refuse'!" The other line spoke angrily, "you made this deal, it is either time to make it or break it. And if you break it, you can't live in the house you live in now!"
I grabbed the phone and said, "what is this about?"
"Excuse me, who is this?"
"Her son Lance."
"Let me tell you something Lance. Your mother is a -"
I hung up and handed mom the phone. "Just hang up if they keep harassing you mom." I said, walking upstairs, "it isn't worth your energy." She replied, "ok."
I entered my room and sat down. It seemed that once dad left the house, these crazy callers would bother us and tell us to 'pay up' about something we didn't even buy. My first conclusion was that they had the wrong number. My second was that they were crazy. My third was that they were scammers. We finally just decided to hear them out, but that made my mom really disagreeable and stressed. I finally told her to just ignore them.
I closed the curtains in my room and pulled out my phone. I had no mail. I finished my homework. But I wanted updates on Hylia's well-being. Was she safe?
I dialed Skylar's number and waited.
Skylar: Hey, what's up?
Lance: Is Hylia safe?
Skylar: Yeah, I think Mara and Erick plotted this. By the way, ignore Erick the next time you see him.
Lance: Why?
Skylar: He is with Mara.
Lance: So...? What?
Skylar: I think they kidnapped Hylia
Lance: Don't jump to conclusions...
Skylar: I know it was them...
Lance: Keep investigating, I have to go. Bye, talk to you later.
I hung up and laid down. The TV was on, so mom must be watching a kitchen show.
Faron's Home
5:58
Faron's P.O.V
I finished reading Skylar's notebook, and then realized that it was his journal. Ugh...wrong thing... Ariana had just ran into my room.
"What's up big brother?" She asked, sitting down on my bed. I snapped the notebook shut and said, "why don't you knock before barging in?" She frowned, "what's wrong?"
"Go away!" I snapped angrily. I saw tears swell up in her eyes and she shouted, "fine! Be a jerk like you want to be! Your just like your mean friends!" She ran out the room and slammed her door. "Keep out!" I snapped.
I frowned and turned over. I didn't know why, but I felt suddenly negative and angry. Something was up. I got up and walked down stairs. I looked out the window and saw a note.
Dear Faron,
are you feeling negative today? Why don't you call me?
Valeria
Valeria was my best friend. I didn't know that she was around though. I called her number and waited for her to answer.
Faron:...
Other Line:...
Faron:...
Valeria: Hello?
Faron: Hey, this is Faron.
Valeria: Hey Faron, what's up?
Faron: Nothing much. Want to come over? I'm feeling negative...
Valeria: Sure.
I hung up and waited a couple of minutes before I heard a knock. I opened the door and Valeria came in. I shut the door behind her and blushed slightly. She was wearing a white shirt and shorts. Something that always made me feel...
"Hey... what's up?" She said, playfully smacking me
"I just yelled at my sister for some stupid reason."
"You probably miss me." She said teasing me
"I know." I said, facing her. I felt the urge to kiss her and leaned. She knew what I was thinking and did the same thing. When we were about an inch apart the door opened and my parents came in.
"Uh, Faron, you didn't say you had a guest." My mom said, staring at us oddly
I froze for a second. "Oh, she just got here." I replied truthfully.
"Hi Valeria. Do your parents know your here?" My dad said, eying us.
"Yeah, I told them before I came over." Valeria said
"Why don't you stay over for dinner?" My dad said, placing three pizza boxes down.
"Ok. I just have ask my parents about that." Valeria said, pulling out her phone.
"Ariana! Come down!" My mother called
I heard stomping footsteps, and at the top, was my red-eyed (which showed that she had cried), frowning, messed up hair, sister. She stomped down the stairs and whined, "Mom! Dad! Faron was being mean!"
My mom and dad looked at me confused. "Is that true?"
"Er...yeah..."
This was going to be bad...
Skylar's Home
6:09
Skylar's P.O.V
I opened the door and saw my dad's worried face relax. My older sister frowned at me, and my younger brother ran up to me and hugged my leg.
"Skyce!" He squealed, hugging me tightly, "where were you?"
He was 5 years old, but he still called me 'Skyce'.
"I found Hylia."
"I thought you didn't care for her?" My sister Tara said
"Oh, I've changed." I said, eying her
"Son, don't you ever do that again. That was very foolish and dangerous." My dad scolded angrily
"Foolish? I saved her life. I don't think that was foolish in her friends and family's book." I said, going up the stairs.
He shook his head and shouted, "don't you ever do that again, you hear me? Never do that again!"
I shook my head and replied, "ok!" But I didn't really mean it. There was no way I wouldn't do that again. I now really liked Hylia. I walked into my room and noticed my journal was missing.
"Wha?" I said, feeling someone grab my wrist and spin me around. It was my neighbor Mary. She tried to kiss me, but I pushed her away.
"Who let you in?" I asked
"Your darling brother." She replied smirking. "Come on Skylar, we were going to do that before Mara and Hylia came. We were best friends."
"That was the past."
"So? What do you know about the future? That Mara's going to love you? Or Hylia? What about me?" She teased, pulling me closer. She was some-what attractive when she wore shorts.
"Come on Skylar. We could at least be friends..."
"No. Leave."
"Wait. I'm staying for dinner!" She said, running down the stairs. I growled angrily and slammed the door. Now who let that annoying pest in?
The 'Awesome' Author's Note:Sorry Skylar, I let her in your home. But, that's just to bad :P You have no say in it
Skylar: I do!
Me: Nope.
Skylar: Yes I do!
Me: I'm the writer, you be quiet.
Skylar: Fine...
Anyway, a lot is going on isn't there? And who knew Faron liked that girl Valeria?
Faron: Hush! Farore might be listening!
Me: WHY? Why should I two-timer?
Farore: Who?
Me: You will find out in a few chapters *throws knock out gas*
Hylia's Home! Yeah! And this chapter was extremely long (almost 3,000 words, I'm going to make chapters longer ok?) and it is time to answer those reviews!
SkyKly - I'm glad you liked how much detail I put in it :) I felt like I didn't put a lot at all :P I'm glad you think that it was the best chapter! :D And thanks for reviewing!
