Chapter 2: Flying

Vaati just stood there, shocked. This girl knew exactly who he was. "She looks like Princess Zelda," he thought "except for her hair of course. If her hair was blonde..." Just then a voice called out. Vaati looked to see a Hyrule Castle gaurd. At least he thought it was. The armor was different. How long had he been in that seal?

The gaurd called out again, but Vaati couldn't understand the language. He cast a spell of immobility on the pathetic little man. The spell would keep the gaurd paralyzed until Vaati chose to release him and, fortunately for the gaurd, he only wanted the man this way until he had left. Vaati took another look at the girl in his arms. She might be able to explain what had happened in the time he had been sealed away. Vaati created a tornado and blew a hole in the roof. He then picked the girl up bridal style and flew off, leaving the shocked gaurd behind, trying to figure out what just happened.

Senko woke up to find herself on top of a skyscraper. She looked down at all of the people in the Picori Festival. It was beautiful, but Senko still didn't know what just happened. "The last thing I remember was pulling out the Four Sword," she thought "and then what happened?" She vaugely remembered seeing a boy come out of the sword. She couldn't have, could she? Only the hero was supposed to be able to pull the blade from its resting place.

"Well well, I see your finally awake." Senko spun her head around to see the boy from before, Vaati. She began to talk in English, her mother tounge. Vaati just stared at her. She spoke in Hylian this time. "Oh, you do not know English?" Vaati looked a little suprised. "Most girls would be crying and begging for me to let them go, not asking which languages I spoke," Vaati informed her. "Yeah well, I am not most girls," Senko replied. Vaati only looked amused at this. "And yet you fainted at the mere sight of me."

Senko didn't respond to this. Vaati walked towards her and smiled. "My name is Vaati, although I belive you already knew that." Senko stared at him. The guy who kidnapped her was being polite and introducing himself? "When I introduce myself it's considered polite for you to introduce yourself," Vaati said. Senko was a little dumbstruck. "My name is Senko," she murmered. Vaati smiled. "Senko? Doesn't that mean 'ancient times'?"

Senko was becoming genuinely creeped out. An evil demon she'd released from a thousand year old seal was acting all friendly towards her and asking what her name meant. "Oh I get it," she said "this is a dream. I fell asleep in that boring museum and now I am having an insane dream." Vaati raised an eyebrow. "No you're certainly not dreaming," he chuckled "I'm really free, and you really released me."

"That is impossible, only the hero can pull out the Four Sword, and last time I checked I was just some bookworm with no friends, not the hero!" Senko shouted. "You don't use contactions when you talk," Vaati noted. "Do not change the subject!" Senko screamed.

It was true, Vaati was changing the subject. In truth he didn't want her to be the hero's decendant. He had sworn revenge on all of the hero's decendants, but, for some reason unknown to him, he didn't want to hurt this girl. When she'd touched him earlier, he had actually liked it. He didn't know why, but it had sent chills of pleasure running through his body.

He was snapped back to reality be Senko waving her hand in front of his face. "Yoo-hoo! Anybody home?" Vaati grabbed her hand. Senko was shocked, but didn't try to pull away. "Look, I didn't bring you here to chit-chat. I need to ask you some questions." "Well, then ask already," Senko said, obviously not frightened.

"What year is it?" "It is 2007," Senko replied. Vaati stared. One thousand years. He'd been trapped in that seal or one thousand years to date. Suddenly Senko shreiked. Vaati saw her staring at a strange little bracelet. "My dad is going to be at the museum any minute to pick me up! If I am not there he is so going to kill me." Vaati held out his hand to Senko. She just stared at it. "I'm offering to take you to this 'museum'."

Senko stared at him suspiciously. "What?" he asked. "Well, usually when a bad guy kidnaps someone he does not let them go just because their dad is on his way to pick them up," Senko shot. "Look, you wanna stay up here forever or not?" Senko didn't say anything she just took hold of his hand. She had expected it to feel cold and icy, but Vaati's hand was warm, comforting. "Hold on tight," he warned. The next thing Senko knew they were flying over the city.
