Disclaimer- I don't own Kuzco, Pacha, Tipo, Chaca or Xand, I do own Zida,
she's my character.
This chapter was inspired from another episode of 'Britain Most Haunted...', which I watched a wee while ago. It was from when the group off the programme hear scary ghost footsteps, which are actually the best-recorded Ghost footsteps ever! It was real creepy! So I just had to put it in my story!
Oh and by the by, the light thingy is actually called an Orb, that's like a ghost's heart, it floats around when a ghost is in the area, just so you know...
I hope you like it! Please review, thanks!
"Sure, that would be fine," Kuzco nodded happily.
"You sure? It's no problem is it?" Pacha questioned.
"No way! It's fine! It gives you and Chicha a chance to have a break and it gives me a chance to play with little Xand! And it would probably be my first time babysitting, I think.... Yeah, yeah it would," Kuzco thought back.
Pacha smiled kindly, "Good. Thank you."
"No prob!" Kuzco nodded proudly.
"When are you going out?" Kuzco asked.
"In a few hours," Pacha answered.
Kuzco nodded, "Righty, well I'll send a chariot for the kids in a hour then, is that okay?"
"Yeah perfect," Pacha nodded happily.
Kuzco clicked his fingers quickly and Zida appeared by his side, "Prepare a chariot for carrying three children, one a baby meaning you'll need to bring a Nanny to care for them on the journey."
Zida bowed, "Yes your highness."
Kuzco turned back to Pacha, "Ever rode with style?"
Pacha raised an eyebrow, "I don't think so."
"Oh and give Pacha a ride home in a nice chariot too," Kuzco commanded.
Zida bowed and ran off towards the chariot room.
"You didn't have to."
"I wanted too," Kuzco smiled confidently.
Pacha shrugged and nodded, "Fair enough."
"Hey you two!" Kuzco greeted the two hyper children gladly.
"Kuzco!" Tipo and Chaca cheered happily in unison.
Kuzco laughed happily as the children jumped onto his shoulders.
Suddenly the voice of a baby giggling filled the air.
Kuzco smiled kindly as baby Xand was carried by a Nanny up towards him.
"What would you like me to do with him, your highness?" the Nanny questioned.
"Um, take him through to the play room, please, we'll be through soon," Kuzco ordered.
The Nanny bowed and continued on her way up to Playroom.
"Play room!" Tipo cried excitedly, jumping up and down on Kuzco's shoulder.
"Yeah! Wanna go there?" Kuzco asked playfully.
"Yeah!" Tipo and Chaca cheered in unison.
"Good, but first are you both fully fed?" Kuzco asked.
Chaca nodded, "Yeah Daddy gave us our dinner before we left!"
"Great!" Kuzco smiled happily, "Let's go to the Playroom then!"
"Yay!" the children cheered.
Kuzco carried the kids up the stairs and along the corridors of his glorious palace.
"Wow, I never knew you lived in such a big house Kuzco," Tipo said amazed as he gazed around the golden haven.
Kuzco smiled, "Yeah, it's alright."
"Isn't it ever lonely?" Chaca questioned.
Kuzco raised an eyebrow and shrugged, "Not really. I have a servant or a guard in nearly every room and at each wing of the palace."
Chaca nodded but still have a look of worry on her face.
Tipo sensed his sister's worry and agreed with her so he spoke for her, "Isn't it ever scary?"
Kuzco hesitated and slowed his pace, "Well..." he looked at the children, "It can be but when I'm with my friends like your dad then it's alright," he smiled sweetly.
Chaca and Tipo smiled back happily.
Finally the trio had reached the playroom.
Tipo and Chaca grinned excitedly and quickly jumped off Kuzco, running over to the climbing frame area.
Kuzco smiled as he watched the kids play along happily, and beside them in the baby's area Xand was sitting peacefully playing with a couple of blocks.
"Your highness?" the Nanny waited for her next instructions.
"Um, take a break, I'll stay with the kids," Kuzco ordered kindly.
The Nanny widened her mouth happily, "Oh! Thank you, your highness!" she curtsied as she ran out the Playroom happily.
Kuzco raised an eyebrow, "O-kay..."
He found a seat and dragged it over next to the kids where he sat down moving about until he was sure he was fully comfortable.
Kuzco stayed there for the next while as he watched the children play happily...
"So then he huffed and he puffed and he said 'I'll blow your house down!'" Kuzco read the popular children's tale to the three kids, "And suddenly the wooden house fell apart. The pig ran to his friend's house hoping for help from the big scary wolf."
Chaca and Tipo listening attentively while Xand sucked his thumb, with an expression of slight confusion of his cute little face.
"The wolf warned the pigs that he'd do it again but-"
Suddenly Kuzco was cut off, when he thought he heard something.
Chaca and Tipo looked at Kuzco worriedly, "Is something wrong Kuzco?" Chaca questioned.
"Um," Kuzco listened hard but he could hear nothing, "Nope, just imaging things," he smiled, "Now where was I?"
"Kuzco!" Tipo jumped up and down, "It's getting dark and scary! Can you light a candle please? I don't like the dark!"
"Neither does Xand," Chaca added.
"Okay," Kuzco nodded as he slowly got up off his chair and made his way over to the opposite side of the room which was wear the candles were kept in a small cupboard.
Suddenly just as Kuzco had his back turned while he searched through the cupboard a little flying light appeared.
Chaca and Tipo widened their eyes in fear as they watched the light fly about behind Kuzco. It floated about as if it were being guided by the wind.
It flew over to the kids, where it spun around Xand several times.
Tipo and Chaca shivered as they both suddenly felt slightly colder.
Tipo frowned and quickly ran over to help his baby brother, he tried to grab the light and called out, "Kuzco!"
Kuzco turned around curiously and spotted Tipo waving away a strange floating light, which was, floating around baby Xand.
Suddenly Tipo reached out and captured it when suddenly he was thrown back! He landed on his sister, both hitting the ground hard.
The light flew out his hand and quickly floated over to Kuzco.
"Tipo!" Kuzco cried worriedly.
The light spun circles around Kuzco, confusing him making him wobble from side-to-side.
When suddenly it floated out the room, down the corridor. Kuzco speedily chased after it.
He ran into the hallway and looked around curiously, it was dark as there were no candles lit and it was pitch dark outside, the strange light was gone and Kuzco suddenly felt like he had been here before.
Kuzco remembered the last time he was in a dark corridor, it was when he had heard the strange voice...
Chaca and Tipo ran after Kuzco, Chaca carrying Xand, all three kids petrified, unknowing to what was going on.
"What's happening Kuzco?" Tipo questioned terrified.
"I'm not sure..." Kuzco looked around in confusion.
Suddenly the group heard something...
Thump.... Thump.... Thump...
It was footsteps...
Kuzco widened his eyes terrified, he had no idea who it could be as they were in a part of the palace which had no floors above it, all there was, was a roof. Also he had neither servants nor guards assigned to this area... The only people that should have been there were Kuzco, Chaca, Tipo and Xand, no one else....
Thump.... Thump.... Thump...
Chaca started to cry, scared, the kids had obviously realised that Kuzco didn't know who was making the sound either, and if he didn't know then it couldn't be good... Kuzco frowned and bit his lip, he clenched his fists and closed his eyes as he listened as hard as he could to the footsteps and where they could be emanating from...
"Help me..." a voice whispered.
Kuzco's eyes flew open and he quickly spun around, he picked up Chaca who was still holding Xand and Tipo, he started to run out the area as fast as he could, making his way to a more public place.
He burst into the great hall where most servants or guards were most the time.
Zida turned around surprised, "Your highness?" she ran up to Kuzco.
"Zida have the Playroom cut off from the rest of the building, post guards all around the area, make sure no one can get in or out!" he ordered.
"But your highness-" Zida was about to complain when Kuzco blew at her.
"JUST DO IT!" he cried angrily.
Zida widened her eyes, something seriously was wrong, she'd never seen the Emperor so angry, she looked at the kids who were all crying.
She nodded and clicked her fingers, "Guards, surround the play room, do as the Emperor said!"
Twenty odd guards nodded in obedience and quickly ran off on their way to the Playroom.
Kuzco sighed and looked at the kids, "Hey, don't worry, it's all over, kay? Everything's fine again."
Chaca wiped the tears away from her eyes and smiled, "Okay..."
Tipo looked up at Kuzco, "You sure?"
"I hope..." Kuzco looked out blankly...
