Disclaimer: I do not own The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword only the idea and plot for this story and My OC, Kella

As soon as Kella and Link came out of the green beam of light they each whistled immediately for their birds before they soared through the skyy towards Skyloft. Kella grinned before she went through a tunnel causing her bird to zoom forward at maximum speed She steered towards the goddesses statue before she jumped off of her bird, pulling her sailcloth out at the last moment to insure that she would land perfectly on her feet.

She quickly ran inside the goddesses statue before placing the Ruby Tablet she had obtained in the Skyview Spring inside the pedestal beside the Ember Tablet. She could feel a rush of light and great change happening. She ran out of the goddesses statue an to the edge of the island just in time to see a red beam of light appear leading down into the clouds.

"Kella!" 'Hmn...?' Kella glanced over towards Kukiel's mother who seemed distraught. "Oh Kella, please, tell me, have you seen my daughter Kukiel?"

"Sorry, I haven't been around much lately." She said with a shrug and a reassuring smile. "I'm sure she'll turn up eventually." She comforted her with another smile.

"I asked anyone that I could find that would help. A few people said that she was seen at the graveyard with some unknown person with a scary face!" Her voice became distraught as she placed her hands on her shoulders. "Someone else even said that he looked like a monster. A monster! Oh, my precious Kukiel! She been eaten by a monster I just know it!" Kell sighed and rubbed her eyes in annoyance.

"Look, I'll do what I can to find your daughter. Okay?" She snapped, loosing her temper little by little before she started to sprint down the steps. "Don'y worry! I'll get her back to you in one piece! I promise!" She called over her shoulder as she turned to the left then the right then down more steps and then left in the graveyard, accidentally slicing her sword at a gravestone.

She watched in amazement as a big wooden door, which she always thought wasmade to be kept shut suddenly open to reveal a opening that had a hole and a ladder that lead down into the hole. She narrowed her eyes before she took a black ribbon out of her pocket and used it to quickly tie her blonde hair up into a quick, sloppy ponytail before she approached the doorway.

Not even bothering with the ladder she simply jumped down the hole, using the sail cloth at the last minute to make sure that she didn't crash land before she started to make her way down the long wooden path.

She blinked in confusion as she saw a... house.


Once inside the house she was immediately greeted by a large creature orange horns and claws, blue skin, yellow and blue wings, and wearing a red robe like thing. Out of the corner of her eye she could see Kukiel cowering in a corner.

Filled with rage she let out a large battle cry as she jumped forward with her sword out and sliced it against his arm causing blood to spew out of the wound.

"Stop! Please! I beg of you, please don't hurt me!" He suddenly yelled, unexpectedly. "Oh goodness I know how this must look to you right now but I swear it's not what it looks like."

"Mhm." Kella said with a disbelieving tone of voice.

"I assure you I mean no harm! We were just playing the scream-as-loud-as-you-can game."

"Oh yeah. That's the best game ever. It's definitely my favorite game ever." She said through narrowed eyes, sarcasm dripping from her voice like venom.

"Isn't that a fun game? Oh dear... Perhaps an explanation is in order." The demon chuckled nervously while she rolled her eyes and sheathed her sword.

"Perhaps..." She agreed bluntly.

"My name is Batreaux, I am a monster who resides here in this humbling dwelling of Skyloft." Kella raised an eyebrow at him.

"I could have told you that." She snapped impatiently.

"Please, allow me to correct one popular misconception." She narrowed her eyes at him.

"Well I don't have all day. Out with it!" She snapped, impatiently.

"While I am, indeed, a monster, I wouldn't dream of terrorizing the people of this town!" He exclaimed causing her to raise an eyebrow at him. "You see this lovely little girl is the only one in town who didn't let loose a bloodcurdling scream at the sight of me." He explained.

"How sweet. Where's a barf bag when you need one." She said unpleasantly.

"Since she started to visit me here I have been feeling absolutely jubilant. You see my hearts only true wish is to become friends with the dear people here at skyloft." She narrowed her eyes slightly at him.

"But as, I'm sure you can imagine, it is rather difficult to break the ice when they are paralyzed by such over whelming fear at the mere sight of me." He explained. "I assure you nothing would fill my heart with greater joy than to become friends with the people of the town."

"There is a tale passed down by my people. It seems that when humans are truly happy with one another they exchange Gratitude Crystals." This got her attention. "If a demon collects enough Gratitude Crystals he can become human. Oh nothing would make me happier than to become human! From the moment I laid my eyes of you I could tell that you had a gentle and generous heart." Kella raised an eyebrow at him. 'Eyes? I thought those were your eyebrows.' (Lol XD Sorry, I couldn't resist.)

"Won't you please gather gratitude crystals and show them to me?" He pleaded.

She thought about it for a moment before she let out a sigh. "Alright." She agreed.

"Truly?! You'll help me?!" She rolled her eyes.

"That's what I said, don't make me repeat myself." She snapped.

"I've heard that you can obtain gratitude crystals by helping people solve their problems. Oh please won't you bring me 5 gratitude crystals." She nodded before turning to Kukiel.

"Hey kid. You know your Mum is in a state about you up a disappearing?" Kukiel nodded shamefully before quickly darting out of the house.


Kella walked into Kukiels house only for the mother to practically scream her thanks at her. "Oh, Thank you so much for finding my Kukiel!" The women practically screamed in her ear before this star shaped crystallized things came out of her head and flew towards her. Kella grinned as she caught them. 'These must be gratitude crystals.' She thought as she pocketed them before heading out of the house and started to look for her brother.


She found him in a platform staring down into the cliuds. He smiled over at her, his practice sword strapped to his back as well as a iron shield. He passed her one with a small smile before turning his attention back to the clouds.

"I'm sure she fine." Kella comforted with a kind smile at him. "She's not unintelligent. I'm sure she'll at least know how to stay away from Bokoblins. After all, bokoblins only thoughts are "Ooh intruder must kill." Or "Ooh. Spirit maiden. Must bring her to master." Or. "Ooh. Bokoblin. Must not kill."" She said with a smile on her lips before she casually pushed him off the ledge before jumping after him, having she hold her tunic-like hat on her head to stop it from falling off as she called for her bird and steered it past islands to catch up with Link who was about to jump off of his bird and into the Eldin area.


I'm sorry about this being such a boring chapter but the next chapter will be more eventful, I promise. I've decided that for the first thre temples it's gonna be like one chapter that is focused around them running errands in skyloft, one chapter exploring the area and temple and one chapter for the temple boss. Next chapter, Kella and Link explore Eldin volcano, collect key pieces and enter the Earth Temple.

Review?
