Floating through the skies, a giant monstrosity with wings flew through the air. Gazing down below, Vaati was above his perfect target. Down below was Hyrule castle town and all of its inhabitants.

'It would be so easy to take them by surprise and overthrow the entire kingdom...' He mused. He thought it was very ironic, if she had not spotted him that day, he would have set his plan in motion the very same day.

The thing is, he could just waltz into the castle any minute and kill the king. The king's wife, Queen Zelda, had died giving birth to their baby. That just meant he had one less person to destroy. But no, Vaati was a patient man, he would wait for the perfect opportunity to strike. He hovered over Hyrule castle, transforming to his Hylian form.

He outstretched his palms, controlling the clouds and forming a supercell. 'Yes, patience is of virtue.'

Dark clouds surrounded Hyrule in minutes. Pouring out massive amounts of rain and thunder.

Pleased with this, Vaati let out a maniacal laugh. Transforming back into his monstrous form, he flew back into the heavens.

Meanwhile in the Palace of Winds ...

"Oh but Lady Lily, you must. I insist!"

Robbie was seen dragging Lily outside of her room. Lily had been brooding in her room upset about what had happened earlier.

"I know you humans think rain is gloomy weather for the sad, but I find rain can soothe even the saddest spirits~" Robbie gleefully said.

Lily and Robbie had made their way to the main entrance, thunder could be heard clapping in the distance.

"I've never seen this much rain before..." Lily said, staring wide-eyed. In the distance, rain was falling at a rapid rate from the sky. Thunder could be heard from a mile away, making Lily shudder.

Robbie looked at the violent storm, before shaking his head.

"Oh no, it must be him again," Robbie said.

Lily was about to ask who 'he' was. Until she heard a loud flapping noise coming from the outside base. There she a huge winged monster, which resembled a bigger version of the eyeball sentry.

She watched as it transformed into a human figure, turning out to be Vaati himself.

'Great, just great.'

Robbie looked up from twiddling his thumbs. He sees Vaati slowly making his way inside.

"Ah! Lord Vaati, you returned home quite smoothly." Robbie says.

Vaati's hair was slightly damp, his cape blowing in the wind. He hardly looked wet at all, considering that he was in the heavy rain. He stopped in front of them, nonchalantly brushing off his tunic.

"I see you've been acquainted with our guest," Vaati says.

Robbie shifts nervously, before speaking. "Yes, I was just persuading her out of the room, as they say, those who brood about shall achieve nothing!".

Vaati smirks, crossing his arms over his chest. "Oh? is that so? well, it's very nice of you to do that, but I'm afraid you have work to do as of right now."

''Ah, yes Lord Vaati, I have still have many duties to perform today!", Robbie says before floating off.

Lily mentally groaned. 'Now I'm stuck alone with this purple lunatic.' Lily mentally prepared herself.

"I've decided to put what you said earlier into consideration," Vaati says.

Lily stares at him, waiting for him to continue.

He sighs, staring up at the ceiling casually.

"Yes, you're dramatic plea yesterday. I've decided, you may write a note and I'll have a sentry send it down below." He says.

Lily didn't know what to say at first. Should she thank him? Out of all her time she's been here against her will, she surely thought she would never have the chance accepted.

'He's being too nice.'

"I - thank you." She said.

Vaati snaps his fingers and a sentry appears beside him.

"Will you please take this girl to her room. You are to carry a note down to her home." Vaati says, with that, he turns around and walks off.

"Oh, and be careful what you write dear. Any plans of exposing me will be met with critical consequences." He adds before walking away.

Lily stares at the ground. 'Critical consequences?'

" Please follow me.'' The sentry said.

Its voice snapped Lily out of her chance, slowly she followed it to her room.

Once they made it to her room, Lily jumped on the big canopy bed. Feeling the soft fabric underneath her. What was she going to do? She hadn't even thought of telling the whole kingdom about Vaati. All she wanted to do was right to her caretaker, that she's ok where she is. 'Well, I'm ok right now'.

Lily sighed, deciding to overthink later, right now, she had a letter to write.

Dear Nana

It's me, Lily. It's been at least two days since I left home.

I decided to leave home and explore the world, I just wanted to let you know that I'm okay. Leaving home has allowed me to see things that I've never seen before. Experiences that I've never experienced, and I still have so many things to learn about the world. I've even seen a few Zora's! I can tell you I am much happy where I am right now. Thank you so much for taking care of me, I will never be any more grateful that I had such a loving Nana. Please don't worry about me, I'm in safe hands.

Your stepdaughter, Lily.

Lily wiped her eyes as she finished the letter. She had to lie, there was no other way around it. Slowly getting up, she looked to where the sentry was floating.

"Please take this to my home in Castle town."

She tied a string around the letter, letting it dangle from its claw. With a nod, It flew out the nearest window, soaring through the sky before disappearing below the clouds.

Lily walked over to the large window, gazing at the dark floating rain clouds. Watching as the sun set behind the clouds, the rain continued to fall from the sky. It was funny almost, It's like the sky was a representative of how she felt inside.

Cold. Dark. Defeated.

Authors note: Well that ended on a rather depressing note! Also, I apologize for the last chapter. It was rather poorly written and I facepalm whenever I go back to review it. This one is still a bit short, but I guess that means the shorter the chapters are, the faster I can get them published lol. Anyways, yes this chapter, I want to make this story as light-hearted as possible. So depressing chapters like these will be few and far between!

Stay tuned.
