Hello people of Fanfiction and LOZ lovers. For those of you who have no idea who Pipit is, I suggest you go kill yourselves for not knowing who the coolest video-game character ever is. Now, please review and critique to your liking, and don't forget to enjoy the story. :)

My day consists of dragging my exhausted ass out of bed after two minutes of sleep, convincing myself that something remotely interesting is going to happen at the academy, then pacing the hallways of the dormatory for who knows how many hours.

The lively cheery colors that occupy the walls are quite deceiving, for nobody dares to show any sort of emotion. Ever since my good friend Link left and Zelda went missing, every resident of the Skyloft Knight Academy has either been washed over with depression and has refused to leave their dingy hole of a room, or they have been silenced and stare at a wall for eight hours straight.

All, except for me of course.

Yes, I'm the poor sap who has to plaster that corny grin across my face everyday. While Headmaster Gaepora mopes around in his office, I'm left out here with nobody. The last words he spoke to me since after Zelda's kidnapping were...

"Watch the place for me. Will ya boy? I need some thinking time."

Thinking time my ass. He just wants to get out of doing his job.

Anyway, yesterday I handed off half of my earnings at the night academy to my mother (my usual routine every week) so she could buy us some bread. I also told her to get off her lazy sack of an ass and clean up our revolting house.

I don't think she took that quite well.

She spent her money on cleaning the house.

Do you know where that leaves me?

Breadless, moneyless, and a clean home.

Today, I asked Gaepora if I could take the day off. He said,

"Why would you want to do that son? You're the man of the academy!"

Even though I wanted to answer, "Think again you fat lazy bastard! Try taking a look in the mirror and answering that question!"

Instead I simply said, "Every man needs a break. I'm sure you can relate to that, Headmaster."

"Of course, boy. Take as long as you need."

I'd prefer that you stop calling 'boy' when I'm as much of a man as you will ever be.

"Thank you sir." I managed and bowed respectfully. Whipping around, I slowly stalked over to the wooden double doors and pushed with all might.

The doors barely budged.

If you keep this up, Pipit, you will be weaker than Fledge.

That's a scary thought.

I sprinted outside and I felt the difference immediatly. Those who were outside seemed more timid, more afraid. No need to fear, Pipit is here! After helping a couple people with their problems they handed me these weird star things called 'gratitude crystals'. Really? When did paying people actual money go out of style?

After distracting myself for an hour or so, it was time to get down to business.

"Pipit!" A female voice cooed behind me.

Looks like it will be sooner than I originally thought.

I whipped around and literally two inches from my face, stood my physco-path mother. She embraced me, cutting off my air supply.

"Let. Go. Please." I managed under the pressure of Mom's arms.

"Oh, sorry darling." She said. "I'm so excited that you are coming back home to live with me!"

"I never said that Ma." I answered glumly.

"But I had it all planned out! We were going to-"

"Mother. I am here because of your stupid actions!"

"Pipit, how could you say that?"

"Mom! You used the money that I worked my ass off for, to pay some dude to clean the house! You clearly have some issues! Do you know that every night, when I want to be curled up in my bed, I walk in the same boring route while you simply blow off all the money I'm doing that for? Consider my feelings for once!"

She did not answer me. She bent her head down and murmured something under her breath that I couldn't quite pickup.

"Next time. Think!" I said with a huff and stormed off, ignoring my mother's silent sobbs and the small crowd that was stationed around us.

I need a break. I need a getaway.

Suddenly, the launching platform beckoned my mind, and apparently my body as well as I strode over to the wooden overhang in a trance.

I need a break. I need a getaway.

I backed up, and crounched into a sprinting stance.

I need a break. I need a getaway.

I pumped my arms in a wide arch and commanded my legs to rush faster than their regular movements.

I need a break. I need a getaway.

The ground vanished below me, and I felt as though gravity had not taken over, I felt weightless. A beautiful sensation few experience.

Well Pipit, here's your getaway.

I zipped my fingers across my mouth, letting out the high pitched tune that summoned my charcoal loftwing, Cheerio.

Except for the fact, of course, he didn't come.

And a massive circular gap in the cloud barrier below me threatened to suck me up.

I plummeted at a breakneck pace, praying to the Goddess to let me live to see Skyloft again. And also promising to myself that I would

I wasn't sure that this was a fact.

One thing I knew was true though... this was sure to be a getaway to remember.

Hope you guys liked it! Review for more chapters, and I'll be sure to update soon! :P
