Kella had completely shut down all of her emotions the moment her brother got trapped inside that crystal. She couldn't risk the grief, and confusion right now. She had to focus. She had just met Levias. Stupid prick. She was riding her loftwing straight for Eldin, in hopes of getting the first song of the hero there. She dropped down and dove into the hole in the clouds bracing herself for the regular warm climate, but she never could have prepared herself for this. She was floating down when a red hot gust of wind blew her off course, causing her to land heavily on the hot, hard, surface of Eldin province.


She groaned as she sat up, eyes blurry as she glanced around. She felt around for her sword only to find it gone..."Huh...okay someones going to die..." She mumbled to herself, about to get up when she felt a harsh pain on the back of her neck. She gasped out in shock as she felt something hot and wet pooling down her neck. She turned around to see three bokoblin there. The one that had hit her with it club quickly hit her hard over the head, causing her world to go black once again.


Kella groaned. She was so sick of being unconscious. She couldn't remember what happened...she remembered that she had defeated levias...she remembered going on here bird...but everything after that was a big blur. Had she been in an accident? Was she in the infirmary? The ground underneath her was hard, and digging into her back. Definitely not the infirmary.

Wherever she was, it wasn't Skyloft. The air was cool, yes, but she felt uneasy. It was humid. It reminded her of Faron woods, but at the same time it didn't. Faron woods made her feel safe, and at peace, wherever she was, she didn't feel safe. She felt like her life was in danger.

'Where am I? Why can;t I remember?' She thought to herself, confused.

"You idiotic swine!" The loud shriek cut off her inner monologue as she squeezed her eyelids closed even tighter. Something about that booming voice made her skin crawl. It made her feel like she way nine years old again, taking care of link, trying to comfort him, as well as herself as the fear gripped her from the beings outsi- No. She refused to think of that time. Not now. Not ever.

"But master...You said if we find her to bring her here-" The poor, terrified bokoblin was cut off by the enraged voice, which only seemed to get louder and louder with each word it spoke.

"I know what I said, you wretched brat!" The loud, booming voice came again. "But things are different now!" 'Different?' She didn't understand...she needed to wake up.

Kella slowly peeked open one of her eyes to see Ghirahim stood with his back to her, less than an inch away from her face. The first thing she saw was his ankles with the diamond cut outs in his leggings. 'What is it with this guy and diamonds?' She couldn't help wondering as she stared straight ahead at his ankles, her heart pounding violently against her chest as she tried to regain her own bearings. Stood, cowering in front of Ghirahim was a red bokoblin who wasn't even paying attention to her as it tried to scrambled backwards from the enraged demon lord.

"..." She blinked dumbfounded at the pair. She felt like she couldn't breathe. She could feel her airway starting to close as she stared up at her opponent. She knew she didn't have her sword. Not only could she not feel it at all anywhere on her, nor could she hear Fi's voice or even feel her presence close by, but she knew this Demon Lord. He was smart. Resourceful. He knew better than to leave her armed.

She slowly tried to inch back, ignoring the insistent pounding in her heart as she did so. She didn't get very far, however, as her arms moved under her to propel her backwards, her knee hit Ghirahim on the side of the foot, hard. Her shuffling was loud enough to wake a sleeping Moblin. These two things gained the attention of the demon, as well as his lord.

Ghirahim whirled around, staring down at her. "She's AWAKE!?" He shrieked, eyes narrowing.

"Ah hell." She mumbled as she stared up at him, eyes narrowed as she tried to look threatening.

"Don't just stand there, Bada! Do it!"

"Shit shit shit shit shit shit shit, now, keep your fucking ugly as fuck hench men away from me, no no no no no no no, personal space, don't touch, get off." She ranted eyes wide as she backed away from the two quickly. Unfortunately she failed to consider there being more henchman around. She felt a harsh prick in her neck and glanced up to find a Moblin standing over her, pressing the sharp end of a needle into her neck. "Ah...what..." She placed a hand to her neck as she winced. "Ow. Hell." She gasped before she allowed her body to slump on the ground. She could hear cold, echoing footsteps approaching her before she saw the demon's cold calculating eyes. He slowly crouched down in front of her and cupped her face in his hand.

"You just couldn't stay in the sky, could you Sky Child." He sighed, almost sadly. "I had hoped it wouldn't come to this, but as always, you have left me with no other alternative." She stared at him, unable to move as she felt her vision going blurry.

"N-no." She gasped out.

"Shhh..." He smirked, she could've sworn he was trying to calm her down, though later she;d blame that ridiculous thought on the drugs. "Don't worry, Skychild. It's just like falling asleep." She gasped as her vision went black, and she felt her consciousness slip away.


When Kella woke up, she found herself in a damp room, with a tiny small bed off on the side wall, held up by chains. She examined the area she was in and with a small gasp of horror realized where she was. It was a prison. Built specifically to keep her in. She slowly got up, wincing slightly as she rubbed her neck where the needle had been. She examined the room and started to walk around when she felt somebody watching her.

"Hello Ghirahim." She murmured, as she stared straight ahead at the door. She knew he was there. She could practically feel his presence. The one thing she didn't expect, was his answer.

"Hello, Kella."


I know I haven;t updated in forevs, but I made up for my momentary hiatus by moving the story ahead to the point where things will be getting good. I'm sorry I skipped Levias, he was boring the fuck out of me!

Review?
