Chapter 8: Le-Koro
Music blasted and dancing flared. The streets of Le-Koro were filled with couples, dancers, and partiers. Among this crowd was Sky and Hahli. The Ta-Matoran ushered her into a building. She looked about, but it was too much for her prim soul. Sky sighed and followed her.
Out on the street a young, fashionable couple was dancing not too far away, from where Hahli had stopped. Sky walked up to her, and accidentally bumped into the Ga-Matoran. Her husband growled. Sky apologized and continued over to Hahli. He grabbed her arm and the walked, quickly, over to an empty table. The headwaiter saw them and walked over to them with enormous menus. He handed one to Hahli, smiling and talking to her, while he Handed the other to Sky without looking. Sky was about to say something, when Hahli stopped him.
"A ham sandwich." she said. Everyone looked at her, giving her an incredulous look.
After their meal, Hahli was walking around with a guidebook, Sky following. She pointed to a monument.
"El Santo Cristo, the second oldest mission in Le-Koro come on." Hahli said dragging Sky along.
"Where to?" Sky asked.
"To the oldest, of course." She pointed to an old prison-like building. "'Don't miss the dungeons where prisoners were thrown to Takea.'" Hahli read from the book.
"Sounds like a million laughs." Sky muttered. Hahli walked around the streets, Sky following, obviously bored and tired. She pointed again.
"Here is buried Makani."
"At least he's lying down."
Hahli started walking again, when a sexy dancing Matoran danced by, followed by two others. The pair watched shortly before heading over to a cheap, street café. They sat down at one of the five tables. A shoddy looking waiter (Mo) stood up and was ready to take their order.
"How about a drink?" Sky asked. Hahli picked up the flat menu lying on the table, scanned quickly, then nodded.
"A milkshake, please." she said, smiling.
Holding up two fingers, Sky said, "Dulce de Leche." Mo nodded and headed off to get the drinks. Hahli went back to reading her book, much to Sky's annoyance. After some time, the waiter returned with two madu shells. As he was setting Hahli's drink down, he spilt some on her. He tried to wipe it off with a soiled rag he carried, but the Ga-Matoran brushed him away. After he left, she took a sip.
"These are delicious!" she gasped. "What did you call them?" She sipped it again.
"Dulce de Leche."
"Dulce de Leche. What's in it— besides milk?"
"Oh sugar, and a natural kind of flavoring."
"What's the name of the flavouring?" Hahli asked, swirling the drink a bit. Sky seemed slightly nervous, Hahli didn't seem to notice.
"Bacardi."
She grinned and sipped again.
"It's very good. I think I'll have another."
A while later, four empty madu shells lay on the table. Hahli was on her third drink. Sky danced his fingers on the table. He glanced at the Ga-Matoran. He tucked his hand under her chin, but she brushed him away. She sipped her drink again.
"Doesn't Bacardi have alcohol in it?" Hahli asked, Sky was nervous again.
"Only enough to— act as a preservative." he lied.
"You know," Hahli said, slightly tipsy, "this would be a wonderful way to get children to drink milk."
The sexy Ga-Matoran dancer and her two partners (let's call the three of them Sei, Rojan, and Steve) passed their table. Hahli got up and began imitating them. Sky, utterly surprised and showing it, watched them, unable to get up. Sei was showing Hahli some of the dance steps. Rojan and Steve watched the two, studying Hahli.
Sky, meanwhile, was shaking his head. He held up a finger, signalling Mo. Sky ordered some wine. The waiter came back with two bottles. Sei, done with Hahli, tapped Sky on the shoulder and fluttered her lashes, much to Hahli's annoyance. Sei got Sky to dance. Hahli frowned and grabbed Rojan, making him dance with her. The Ga-Matoran, fed up, snatched Sky from the dancer.
Sei walked after them and shoved Hahli, who shoved her back. Sky tried his best to calm her down, but to no avail. Mo picked up an chair and smacked the Ta-Matoran's back with it. Hahli, seeing this, grabbed one of the wine bottles and broke it into shards on his head. She looked at the fallen Le-Matoran, eyes wide, in horror. Sky snatched her wrist and dashed off.
The fashionable couple, who happened to be walking by, dodged the two and sat down at the table. Rojan and Steve sat next to them, Sei on Rojan's lap. The chatted for not even a second, when Sky dashed over and grabbed the other wine bottle, leaving them baffled.
The two had been walking for a while after the brawl. Sky keeping Hahli balanced. The Ga-Matoran struggled to get out of his grasp. He let her arm go, knowing she was still tipsy.
"Take it easy there, slugger. It's over and you're still champ." he said steadying her. She kissed him and staggered back. "Are you alright?" It was easy to tell he was concerned.
"Am I alright!" the Ga-Matoran said cheerfully. She grabbed him into a starting pose for the waltz.
Ask me how do I feel
Ask me now
That we're cosy clinging
Well, sir, all I can say is,
If I were a bell I'd be ringing (She let him go and paced in front of him)
From the moment we kissed tonight
That's the way I've just got to behave
Boy, if I were a lamp I'd light
And if I were a banner I'd wave (She placed her head on his shoulder)
Ask me how do I feel
Little me with my quiet upbringing
Well, sir, all I can say is
If I were a gate I'd be swinging (She leaned forward, Sky caught her before she could fall)
And if I were a watch
I'd start popping my spring
Or if I were a bell I'd go
Ding, dong, ding, don, ding. (She grabbed his arms and swung them over his head)
Ask me how do I feel
From this chemistry lesson I'm learning. (She swung around a near by post and stopped in front of him)
"Chemistry?" He asked, a cocked eyebrow up.
"Yah, chemistry."
Well, sir, all I can say is,
If I were a bridge,
I'd be burning.
Yes (She backed him up)
I knew my morale would crack (She backed up and looked at him)
From the wonderful way that you looked,
Boy if I were a duck I would quack
Or if I were a goose I'd be cooked (She fell forward and into his chest)
Ask me how do I feel (He straightened her up)
Ask me now that we're fondly caressing
"Pal— "
— If I were a salad
I know I'd be splashing my dressing (She touched his cheek)
Ask me how to describe
This whole beautiful thing
Well, if I were a bell (She turned away from him and waved her hands above her head)
I'd go ding, dong, ding, dong, ding! (She fell back into his arms)
Hahli broke away from him and gazed up at the stars and the moon.
"Le-Koro is a wonderful place." she said, smiling at him. A blush from the alcohol danced on her mask in the moonlight. "Why don't we stay here for a few days so we can see how wonderful it really is?"
"I think we'd better hurry if we want to catch the midnight airship back to Metru Nui."
"But I don't want to go back to Metru Nui!"
"I'm taking you back." He snatched her wrist and started to drag her along.
"You're no gentleman."
"Look, a doll like you shouldn't be mixed up with a guy like me. It's no good— I'm no good." Hahli wrapped her arms around him, but Sky brushed her away. "You know why I took you to Le-Koro? I made a bet! That's how I met you in the first place. I made a bet."
"How else could a girl meet a gambler?" she giggled. Sky sighed and swept her into bridal style.
"Come on."
"No! No!"
"I got to think what's best for you!"
"Oh, you sound just like a missionary."
