Chapter 8: Undead Temple Pt. 2

3rd Person POV

"UnDeads?" Emma asks quietly from her hiding place. The dark figure steps out of the room revealing its true form. Emma moves closer to Vaati and her grip becomes tighter causing Vaati to wince.

"Emma get off!" Vaati demands as he twirls his index finger in a circular motion. The UnDead looked like the redeads in Wind Waker, but it's skin was torn off showing muscle tissue and some skeletal features. Its teeth were sharp like fangs and wielded a scythe that looked as though it were rotting and dulling. Its red glowing eyes held no sign of life and it was twice Vaati's size.

"Brat! Hold your ground and you better protect my master or your dead! Ya hear?" Piku yells flying beside him getting ready to chant a spell. Vaati only rolls his eyes before launching a sideways tornado at the foe. It hits its target, but the thing only bent backwards in an unnatural way.

"Tsk! This thing will become a problem." Vaati observes already casting another spell, but is interrupted by three other moans coming from behind and a scream following.

Vaati looks back quickly and notices Emma gone. His eyes widen when he saw her dangling from black tentacles hanging from the ceiling behind that were three redeads with hunger in their eyes. Emma struggling to get free, however, the black shadow arms become tighter squeezing the life out of Emma rendering her unconscious.

"Tsk!"

"Master! Urg! Vaati please rescue my master now!" Piku pleads. A chuckle was heard behind them forcing Vaati and Piku to look behind them. What they saw frightened them both before Vaati glared.

"So~ the mighty Wind Mage has returned and working with the Hero's reincarnation? How amusing. I wonder what happens if I do this?" the UnDead mused as he motioned the redeads to tighten the tentacles, however, he yield has he noticed Emma was unconscious.

"Aww that's no fun I won't be able to hear her scream," the UnDead pouted thinking of an idea to wake up the girl. Vaati's blood boiled in hatred as he summoned five flying eyes to attack the UnDead. They happily comply, lunging at the enemy, though their efforts were in vain since there was a red barrier around the UnDead.

"Ooh I know! I'll just use that on her that'll surely wake her up and make the Wind Mage furious," the UnDead stated gleefully as he clapped at his own idea. He faces Vaati with a smirk before adding "How rude of me, I should introduce myself. Its only natural. A pleasure to meet you in person Lord Vaati, my name is Kojin." he stated with a small bow. Vaati balled his hands into fists as he readied another spell.

Suddenly, the UnDead – Kojin teleported out of sight and a ear shattering scream was heard behind them. Both Piku and Vaati whirl around to find Kojin placed his hand on Emma's chest and red lightning zigzagging out causing Emma to scream in pain.

"Stop!" Piku cried lunging at high speed. Kojin smirked again and with a snap of his fingers Piku repelled backwards into Vaati. Vaati catches Piku with one hand and fire in another.

"Get the hell away from Emma you coward!" Vaati glares as he aims straight for Kojin and hits its target and the redeads. Unfortunately, the UnDead dodges and it hits Emma instead.

"VAATI WHAT ARE YOU DOING! Your attacking Emma!" Piku cries teleporting towards his master as she falls to the ground, but before she could reach the ground a certain person garbed in purple catches her bridal style with Piku by his side healing Emma.

Vaati turns towards the UnDead with hatred and anger in his eyes.

"You know you would have made an excellent underling, but unfortunately you had to mess everything up, didn't ya? Now I'm going to have to kill you." Vaati places Emma gently on the ground, Piku by her side and he slowly gets up, turns towards Kojin again and mutters a long spell.

Suddenly, Vaati's form transforms into a giant eyeball with small thin bat wings.

"I haven't been in this form in years, perhaps I should test out my abilities?" Vaati mused darkly. He didn't even sound the same either instead he had a disembodied voice.

The UnDead's eyes widen in fear as he steps back until he reaches the wall. Vaati moving closer from above.

"Um...we can talk this out right? Please don't kill me!" he pleaded his legs giving in.

"Too late for that. Now then, any last words?" he asks as strong currents of wind circle around him. The UnDead is very quiet. Vaati sighs.

"I see, very well then...Die!" then the UnDead is engulfed in sharp winds. When the spell dissolved all that was left was small chunks of flesh and a pile of blood staining the walls and floor. Leaving eerie silence within the temple once again.

Vaati transforms back and walks towards Emma, picking her up bridal style. Piku silently follows behind.

"Thanks Vaati, for...saving Emma." Piku quietly says looking at Emma's shredded form. Her clothes were torn in multiple areas, but none revealing anything major. Emma's hair was down and she had small cuts and bruises on her all over her body. However, something caught Vaati's eye, a small faint marking on her neck that looked like a scar from many years ago. As Vaati traces the mark with his eyes he becomes startled at what he saw.

"What the?" Vaati says to no one in particular, Piku looks at Vaati and follows his gaze. Piku's eyes widen in alarm as he zipped in front of Vaati blocking his view of Emma's scars.

"What are you doing?" Vaati asks putting Emma down making her lean on him. Emma groans. The boys turn their heads towards Emma. Emma's eyes flutter open.

"Ow...what just happened? I feel like 10 years ago...and why is it cold?" Emma asks weakly as her eyes adjust to the dark seeing only two pairs of eyes above her. Emma's eyes widen in alarm as she quickly sits up hitting her head on Vaati's.

"Ow!" the both complain in sync. Both clutching their foreheads.

"What was that for?" Vaati asks.

"Sorry, you just startled me,"

"Master, you may wanna get ready to explain very quickly..." Piku replies grimly. Emma looks down and sees her body torn up revealing some scars from 10 years ago. Emma's eyes widen in fear.

"Well, where did you get these?" Vaati asks seriously. Both Emma and Piku sigh, closing their eyes temporally. Vaati blinks when they both open their eyes which held no emotion.

"10 years ago...I died once before getting revived by the local doctors." Emma started. Vaati's eyes widen in confusion and shock.

"How?" he asks still in shock.

"It all started when I was 5..."


Me: So...was it okay? I get nervous of this sort of thing because I know for a fact that I am not the greatest writer out there, so if I did something wrong please let me know :)

Emma: I know whats wrong! Your mind.

Me: That's besides the point.

Emma: I will make DarkSakura get the next chapter up early okay~! See ya. Have a lovely day/night/whatever.
