Disclaimer – I do not own Legacy of Kain. If I did I wouldn't be writing fanfiction.
Authors Note – I know it's short but it's still a chapter.
Sharky – I'll write more OK. You don't have to worry about that.
Twisted Sister – Yeah I'll do my best to do her justice. I hate it when people have Umah in fics and they make her an airhead.
Use Your Wings
Umah walked into Kain's chamber and saw him still sleeping. She noticed that he looked so peaceful in his sleep. No trace of anger, stress, or impatience lingered on his face. She thought that she should find a schedule of her duties so she began to search her chamber. Then she searched his and sighed. It looked like he was the only one who knew her schedule. Hell he probably made it. Then he could order her to kiss him whenever he wanted her to and she couldn't say she had to go to oversee a case. She decided that she would kiss him he just wouldn't know it. She looked down at the sleeping vampire and kissed him on the forehead. He did not stir so she decided to be bold and kiss him on the lips. There, he'd had his morning allotment and now she would just have to get used to kissing him. Then her heart wouldn't beat so damned fast.
She went to the north side of the Sanctuary and climbed some ledges. She saw that she was ten feet from the ground and spread her wings. She flapped them for a bit of practice, if she flapped hard but slow she could hover or rise gracefully. Then she ran off the ledge and jumped then unfurled her wings. She kept her wings rigid and discovered that she could glide. The third time she jumped off the ledge and unfurled her wings and flapped them hard. She was flying!
She flew higher and higher and hovered to look at the Sanctuary. It was magnificent as was the empire she ruled. The only problem was that she was getting tired and couldn't fly much longer. She glided down to the ledge and hovered before letting herself down.
She smiled as she looked at her beautiful ebony wings and their long graceful curves. She flapped her wings hard and fast and felt herself rise above the stone. It took longer to fly up but she was still flying. She flew to the Sanctuary and landed on the steps. She didn't know how long she had been flying but it was probably too long. Most likely Kain would be angry with her. She shuddered at the thought. In this new time, the time of Kain's empire there was no one to save her if she upset Kain. Before she could just run to Vorador but here there was no Sanctuary or place to flee to. She thought again about Vorador. She missed her sire terribly but knew better than to mention it to anyone.
