Chapter six
Off to Meet the Queen
"Up and at 'em everybody!" Hurry up and get ready to go! We gotta leave for Alexandria soon!" Zidane yelled to wake everyone else up. He had convinced them all the night before to stop in on Garnet at Alexandria Castle to see if she could be of assistance to them on their trip. Of course, he was just using this as an excuse to be with Garnet, but Baku decided to give him what he wanted. Now Zidane was especially eager to get going.
"Zidane, it's six A.M.!" Marcus complained. "Shut the hell up and let us sleep."
"Come on you lazy asses!" Baku strutted into the room. "Marcus, if only you and Cinna had the enthusiasm that Zidane has. Then this would go a lot more smoothly. Now get your butts out of bed, and get ready to leave."
"Well, we'd be enthusiastic too if we had a hot chic waiting for us in Alexandria," Marcus joked.
Zidane blushed while glaring at Marcus. " . . . that's no way to talk about the queen of Alexandria! Hmph, 'hot chick'. How rude!"
"You can't hide it Zidane," Cinna joined in. "We all know you can't wait to lay your eyes on Dagger again."
"Th-that's not true! I just . . . I mean, …I was. . . uhh . . . heh," Zidane smiled weakly at Marcus and Cinna. The two of them just smirked back in victory.
"Zidane, go wait in the Prima Vista with Blank, Ruby, and the new chic," Baku ordered. "Nero's, go with Zidane. And Marcus, Cinna…you two better be ready by the time I come back!"
"Y-yes Boss," the two said in unison. They all did as Baku said. Zidane and the Nero brothers made their way to the Prima Vista where Blank, Ruby, and Kaira were preparing the ship for take-off. Baku continued to pack things from around the house to take with them. Things such as food and other previsions they may need. And Marcus and Cinna hurried to get ready to leave, out of fear of a beating from their boss.
(A/N ok nothing interesting happens here. Marcus and Cinna get ready to go in time, they all head to the airship…enough said)
"Okay, boys…and Ruby and Kaira," Baku announced to everyone as he stepped onto the Prima Vista which was docked at the harbor (I know it's an airship, but I'm gonna assume it can flout. I mean, heck, some planes and helicopters can, right?) "Let's get our butts movin'. Everybody ready for take-off?"
"Wait…WAIT!" a girl yelled in the distance as she ran towards the airship. As she got closer she yelled, "You didn't think you could leave without me, did you Zidane?"
" . . . Eiko?" Zidane questioned. (sorry if this is a spoiler, but Eiko lives in Lindblum now) "What are you doing here?"
"Well, I wouldn't miss the chance to go on another adventure with you," she innocently replied as they stood there on the dock.
"Umm . . . yeah great," Zidane lied as he gave her a fake smile.
" . . . who's the pip-squeak?" Kaira asked as she looked down at Eiko with an annoyed expression.
Eiko glared angrily. "How dare you! I am not a pip-squeak!"
"No, I'm pretty sure you are." Kaira bent down to Eiko's level and snickered. "I mean, really, you're like less than four feet tall. "
Eiko narrowed her eyes even more, her face started turning red with rage (kinda humorous looking if you ask me). She then swung her hand up at Kaira, smacking her in the breast (I think the girls know this better than the guys, but that REALLY hurts)
"OWW!" Kaira screamed. "Why you little…"
"ANYWAY!" Baku interrupted the girls' cat fight. "We still have to get going. Let's not forget our objective here."
"Hey, what is the objective anyway." Eiko asked. "Where were you guys off to?"
"Alexandria," answered Zidane. "Now, Boss is right, lets go."
Cinna then started up the ship and the others were about to head inside and help, when they saw a huge shadow fly by over head.
"Oh great," Zidane moaned. "Another distraction." I'll never get to see Dagger at this rate, he thought to himself.
Kaira gasped. " . . . oh crap!" she said aloud.
"Is that a dragon?" Ruby asked. " . . . in Lindblum?"
Kaira moaned. "I'm in trouble."
The rusty red dragon swooped down from the sky, landing gently on the shore of the harbor. He was large compared to the size of a normal dragon. He drew in his titanic wings and, to the amazement of everyone but Kaira, shrunk to the size and shape of a human.
"Dragons can transform into humans?" Blank asked in shock.
"Yup" the dragon answered. (except he wasn't a dragon anymore. He now took the
form of a man with shoulder length brown hair and a slight beard growing across his face. He looked about the age of a thirty year old man) The man walked onto the airship, but stopped in front of Kaira. The girl just lowered her wolf ears and tried to look innocent. "You, my little wolf pup, are in big trouble."
" . . . yea, I figured as much," she replied."
" I was waiting all night for you, and you never showed up." The man raised his voice. "Damn you, kaira! When are you gonna learn to do what you're told!"
"Draco, you don't understand. Last night, I saw . . . I saw Garron! "
Draco widened his eyes in disbelief. "You couldn't have. How do you know it was him?"
"Because he told me he was," she answered. "And he told me about what he had done to the Gerudo."
" . . . damn"
"we were just on our way to find out more about why he's reappeared. …heh…but…I…kind of forgot about you…" Kaira smiled weakly.
Kilala walked up to Draco and meowed sweetly in recognition of him.
"I'm sure you didn't forget me, Kilala. But that owner of yours is too stubborn to listen to you isn't she?" Draco picked up the cat and stroked her pale fur.
"Hey, I DO listen to Kilala . . . I just don't listen to you . . . "
Draco smiled, slowly forgetting about his anger. "So, who are all of you?" Draco gestured to everyone else around him. "What do all of you have to do with Garron?"
"We'll explain everything to you on the way to Alexandria," answered Zidane.
"Why are you going to Alexandria?" Draco asked another question.
"I repeat," Zidane answered again. "We'll explain EVERYTHING on the way!"
Draco looked down at Kaira. "I think we can trust them," she answered his unspoken concerns.
The dragon nodded. "I don't trust them," he replied., being the untrusting creature that dragons are. "But I do trust your judgment."
They all finally stepped into the airship and flew off in the morning sun toward the country of Alexandria.

Okay, I think that's the longest I've ever taken to put up another chapter. I got lazy again, and not to mention my computer stopped working for a while. …No, really it did! …ok, you're right, that's just another excuse, but I cant help it. You have to be patient when working with procrastinators like myself. (heh) Oh and about Draco. Yeah, I didn't cover much about him, but ill explain his story in the next chapter. Which will probably be in about six months. That is if I keep on going at this rate. …but ill try to go faster. Lol. And,don't worry, Blank is still the main character of this story. I only say that because this chapter really had nothing to do with him.But i will get backto Blank soon. I promise!
