Masked Lover-Happy late Birthday
Harmony283-Thanks for the corrections, sorry though. I don't know where in the previous 9 chapters those mistakes are!
Chapter 10
"Hey, Vaati you're-whoa!"
"Don't… say… anything" Vaati hissed. So Link just pointed at Vaati's stomach, which was now large enough to be noticeable through his shirt.
Vaati gave Link cold cereal for breakfast.
While they were eating Link spoke up "You said it wasn't growing. I don't think it could get that much larger over night"
"For a hero" Vaati said dismally "You're not very bright"
"Is it kicking yet?"
"No, and if you put one hand on my stomach I'll chop it off!" Vaati threatened.
"Gee. What got you in a bad mood?"
"My stomach" he said "Showing through my shirt" He took a bite of his scrambled eggs "By the way, where's Zelda? Usually she shows up every other day"
"She went to Labrynna"
"Again? Wasn't she there the whole time you had me trapped in a bottle?"
"Apparently the queens acting weird" Link said "Was your stomach sticking out that much yesterday?"
"No. I swear its getting bigger every day" he flung the fork across the room and it stuck into the wall "I wish Ganondorf would just rot and die!"
"I do too, but it probably won't happen for a while longer. Is it really growing that fast?"
"I don't know. It might just be my imagination. I don't think it should be growing that much over night so…" he sighed and rested his head in his hands "actually… it probably did show through my shirt yesterday, just not as much"
"Yeah, it isn't majorly showing" Link assured him "I've just been looking for it for a while so that's why I spotted it"
"I'm going outside" Vaati said suddenly, standing up.
"What for? What if Ganondorf's out there?"
"You'll have to rescue me, then" Vaati said "besides, better he kidnap me now where I can still be mistaken for putting on weight than in a few months where its obvious that I'm knocked up"
"Yay" Link said bitterly. The idea of storming the castle of one villain to rescue another was not pleasing. But he really needed to keep track of the baby. If not, it would probably be the end of Hyrule.
Vaati smiled before heading out into the forest below Link's house. He placed a hand on his stomach again, feeling slightly nauseas after eating so many eggs. He knew it probably wasn't healthy to have that many, but they tasted so good. He couldn't help it.
"This is all your fault" he told the baby growing inside him "If you weren't here I could still be at home not worrying about things like labor, or when I'll need new clothes, or black mail, or being chased by Ganondorf… maybe" he sighed "Your other daddy probably hates you too, you know. If he ever treats you nice it will be so you'll be a good little boy or girl and let yourself be his weapon. You're just something to be despised… or a tool…" he sighed and leaned back against a tree "So I guess we've got a lot in common then"
He heard a large 'thump' and quickly ducked behind a tree. Peaking around, he was both relieved and embarrassed to see it was just a branch that had snapped.
Chuckling slightly, he got up and began to aimlessly wander through the forest again.
Several hours passed. Eventually, Vaati began to feel hungry. The trees blocked out most of the light in the section of the forest he was in, so he couldn't be too sure, but it seemed to be getting dark, meaning he'd missed lunch.
Figuring he ought to go home and make dinner for himself and Link, Vaati began to retrace his steps, when he heard another crash "Just another branch" he muttered to himself, not even looking back.
A few seconds later a hand wrapped around his mouth, keeping him from screaming as another strong arm lifted him off the ground. Vaati struggled to look back, but the person wasn't giving him the chance. Something hit him hard on the back of the head and he lost consciousness.
XXXXX
Link chewed on his sandwich and looked out the window. Vaati wasn't back yet. He'd probably gotten himself lost again. He'd go look for him if he wasn't back in a few days.
OXXXXXO
