Disclaimer- I don't own Kuzco or Pacha they belong to Disney. But I do own Zida! As she is one of my characters, that I created!

Okay, I have to apologise for the amount of time it took to put this Chapter up, for one I had no Internet for seven or so weeks then for two I lost most of the data on my Laptop!! Luckily, I managed to get it all back again! phew But once again I apologise....

Hopefully the following Chapter won't take as long to post, lol!

Thanks to everyone who has reviewed! I love you all!

"Honey, what do you think you're doing?" Chicha questioned as she watched Pacha pulling his hat and top on, (what on earth are those things called? Ponchos?)

"Well, I have to go and check on the llamas again, don't I? Plus there are a few other jobs I could be helping with," Pacha explained.

"Oh well..." Chicha sighed.

Pacha smiled and opened the door ready to leave.

Just as he opened the door an exhausted Kuzco and panicky Zida were standing there.

"Oh my goodness, Kuzco, what's wrong?" Pacha asked quickly.

"There's an assassin at the palace who tried to kill the emperor," Zida explained, "We managed to escape him. I suggested we go to a place he'd never think of then the Emperor suggested here."

"That's okay is it, Pacha?" Kuzco asked.

"Of course! Come in! Come in!" Pacha invited Kuzco and Zida in quickly, looking around after them to check no one saw them.

"Kuzco," Chicha ran over to him, "Are you okay? You look very pale, sit down, you look like you are about to pass out."

"Well I'm definitely not wanting to groove anyway," Kuzco smirked, "We've been running for ages!"

"I hope the guards were able to capture the assassin..." Zida tapped her fingers on her chin.

Kuzco nodded in agreement, "Maybe..."

Chicha jumped when she heard Xand crying, she spun around and ran into the baby's room.

Kuzco winced when he heard the crying become louder per second, "Geez, I never realised baby's could cry that loud!" he shouted over the cries.

"If you think that's loud you should get some ear muffs for when he really cries!" Pacha joked.

Chicha returned with a balling Xand, she had him balanced on her shoulder and was patting him on the back, "It's okay, it's okay...."

Kuzco ran over to help calm the baby down.

Chicha started to rock him for side to side but Xand was still moaning.

Kuzco thought he'd have a try so he started to make funny faces; putting his hands behind his ears, sticking his tongue out and crossing his eyes.

Xand stopped crying and watched Kuzco, he burst out laughing in his cute little voice and waved his tiny arms about.

Kuzco smiled proudly and sighed in relief, "There we go!"

"Hey you're a natural with kids!" Pacha complimented the emperor.

Kuzco shrugged, "No I'm not, just luck."

Pacha smiled mischievously, "Uh-huh...."

"Hello!?!" Zida exclaimed, "Kuzco there's an assassin out to kill you!!"

Kuzco widened his eyes and spun around, "Whaddya call me?"

Zida grinned innocently, "Your highness?"

Kuzco eyed Zida, "I hope so," he paused, "But I guess you're right..."

Zida nodded hopefully.

"Hey, if this guy is out to get me, then," Kuzco folded his arms in confusion, "Then how long do I have to stay in hiding?"

"I'm not sure your highness..." Zida paused as she shrugged unsurely.

"Well, like a day? Two days...? Three...?" Kuzco questioned.

"Week or two or three...?" Zida replied in a quiet tone, knowing what Kuzco's reaction was going to be...

"WHAT!?!" Kuzco screamed.

"Hey, hey calm down Kuzco!" Pacha walked over to his red-faced friend.

"What do you mean a week or two?" Kuzco questioned worriedly, "I have to stay in doors for all that time!?!"

"Yes I suppose your highness..." Zida nodded.

Kuzco was about to scream his head off again when Pacha quickly cut in.

"You know, that might not be the only way," Pacha had an idea forming in his head.

"What do you mean, Pacha?" Kuzco asked curiously.

"Well, if this assassin is currently trying to find you then you have to blend into the background, like camouflage, yes?" Pacha questioned.

Kuzco simply nodded.

"Then you have to become the background," Pacha paused, "You have to live like a peasant," Pacha suggested.

"Live like a peasant...?" Kuzco repeated Pacha in disbelief, "Em, no offence Pacha but this isn't my kinda thing, I can't live your life, just like you probably couldn't live my life so easily, I don't think that's really possible, sorry."

"Kuzco this could be the only way for you to live," Pacha replied.

Kuzco looked at his friend worriedly, he thought about it for a few moments then finally came to a decision, "Okay..."
