Some Live, Some Die

Chapter Two: An Old Companion

"I guess so!", Sky said laughing. Legend was also laughing, but just to not make the situation awkward. "Yeah...ha...", Legend said quietly and nervously. "We're partners now.." Sky just looked at him, but he was actually glaring this time. "Huh? Whats wrong, Sky?", Legend said confusingly. Sky is glaring?! What did I do to make him angry?!!??!, he thought, trying to figure out what he had done. ...

"Huh...", Sky mumbled. "But...that scroll could be for anyone, you know? We should just leave it alone, you know? I already saved the world, I have no time to save it again.", Sky had said, annoyed and tired of Legend bugging him. "I know, but-", Legend was trying to finish talking but Sky had shushed him. "Wha?", He said nervously. Sky just sighed and said, "Just leave it there for someone else and get out of here, okay?"  "Fine....I guess that your right.....but the scroll might be useful later, right?", Legend said, breathing out a sigh. "Not sure...But...nevermind. I need to bring you back to Earth. Lets get out of here.", Sky said, motioning him to leave. "Yeah..", Legend sighed.

Sky had got him onto the crimson Loftwing, flew to a place on the surface, and made him get off. "See you!", Sky yelled as he flew into the clouds. Legend waved goodbye and ran to his home that wasn't fr from where had put him. All I have to do is call a locksmith or something...., he thought. He checked his pockets to see if he had a phone. To his advantage, he had one. Yes!!, he thought while smiling and sighing in relief. I could have called last night, but that would not have let me talk to Sky more. He's a nice kid..., he thought while punching the number into the phone.

After calling and finally being able to get into his home, he automatically went to bed. It was actually the afternoon where he was, but he was tired and didn't want to be awake. Hoping to talk to Sky soon, he nodded off.

Sky was back in Skyloft, but he was also exhausted for no particular reason. He ran towards the academy, Knight Academy, and opened the large doors that lead into the school. "I'm so tired....why does this always happen to me whenever I get a little mad?", Sky said under his breath. While he was walking towards the flight of stairs, he had bumped into his friend, Pipit. "Oh, Sorry about that, Pipit!", he apologized while rubbing his eye. "Oh, hey Link! Don't worry about it, I was in your way.", Pipit said while scratching his head. "Hey, Link...Did you get any sleep last night? You look tired.", he said while observing Sky's eyes. "Not really, dude....I had a guest over and he slept in my bed and-", Pipit shushed him. "Go to your room and rest, Link!", Pipit said while patting Sky's head. Sky smiled, nodded, walked down the stairs, and went into his room. He put his equipment on the floor and jumped on the bed, slowly closing his eyes to sleep.

A few hours later at night, Sky's eyes darted open, and he sat up, breathing heavily. He had a horrible nightmare, it was like the one he had gotten ages ago, where Zelda had been devoured by the Imprisoned. "What the hell?!", he mumbled, breathing frantically. "I need....I need to go outside....I need to get my mind out of this sad state..", he whispered while getting up. He looked around, looking for his sword and shield, but it was no longer in his room. What? Where did they go!?!?!?, he thought while looking around. "What the hell is going on...Why did-", he was whispering until he heard a very familiar voice call out to him. Master.....His eyed widened, his heart racing, his head hurting. "F..Fi?!", he yelled while running out of his room, running outside, and going to the Statue of the Goddess.

When he slowly walked into the statue, he saw a familiar figure next to a pedestal. "Fi?! Why are you in here again!? Didn't you sleep forever?! Why are you awake and here?!!?", Sky yelled while running to her. She just looked at him, her presence made him calmer for some reason.  "I am sorry for startling you, Master. I have come back to help you. I awakened from my deep slumber when I received a message from the goddess Hylia.", she said as calm and robotic as she used to. Sky just slowly looked into her eyes and hugged her without warning. "Fi, I missed you so much!!", he yelled happily. Fi showed no visible emotions, but on the inside, she was smiling. "Master, I suggest you take the sword out of the pedestal once again.", she said in her robotic voice. "Yes, Fi.", Sky said quietly as he pulled out the Master Sword he made ages ago from the pedestal. Fi cracked a very small smile, but tried to hide it from Sky's view.

"Master, I have calculated an 87% chance that you have awakened from some sort of nightmare, like the one you had ages ago. May you please tell me what it was about in order for me to understand you fully in this situation.", Fi said. Sky looked a little sad about telling her about it, but it wouldn't hurt to tell someone who was not capable of having emotions or being able to judge. "Okay fine, Fi....I'll tell you because you cannot feel anything or judge me.", Sky said quietly. "Yes, Master. Even if I had a capability to understand your feelings, I will not make you feel sadder then you are now.", she said while giving him the exact same empty and blank stare.  Sky sat on the cold and hard concrete floor and began to speak quietly, but not so quiet that she would not hear him. "I had a dream where me and a friend I had made yesterday were in some sort of world. We were about to escape it through some portal, but as he was about to jump in...A woman who looked like Hylia came and told him to come with her. I knew that it was a fake, so I screamed for him to go with me. But he didn't heed....he went with the woman. I was so terrified, screaming for him, and trying to grab him....but he didn't listen....When he was nearly out of my sight, I thought I saw him smiling sadly...", Sky told Fi.

"Master, I am sure that you had a bad reaction to your nightmare, but try to calm down.", she said while staring blankly. Sky began to tear up, so he hugged her again. "What does that even mean?! Your smart, tell me!!!", Sky yelled while hugging her. He was crying on her cold shoulder for minutes on end. It did not effect her to see him depressed on the outside, but it hurt her a little to see him like that on the inside. "Master, I have calculated a 50% chance that something like that may happen in the future and you should try your best to stop that from happening.", she said quietly. Sky nodded slowly and let go of her.
