Zelda

I sat on the couch with Sephiroth watching TV. Aranel and Isdela left not long ago. Something about a new treasure Isdela had read about. Personal I think she’s off to spy on Vincent and my sister just tagged along in some attempt to keep her friend out of trouble.

“Glad to have the house back,” Sephiroth asked.

“Yeah,” I answered, “It’s nice and quite.” I sat for a moment before I realized what I said. “Sephy?”

“Mmm?”

“Where are the boys?”

“Upstairs I think…”

“Oh my gods!” I run up the stairs, down the hall to the boys’ room. There I found the three of them huddled together in the middle of the floor. “What are you three up to?”

“Nothing mommy,” Yazoo said, a big smile on his face.

“Yeah, were just playing,” Kadaj added. I glared at them for a moment. “Loz…” I say. He fidgets for a moment before showing me the gold materia Isdela had showed them a few days ago. “Did Isdela give you that?”

“No mommy we…”

“Shut it cry baby,” Kadaj demand. I snapped my fingers, “Give it here… NOW!” Loz straitened up and walked over to the door. Kadaj and Yazoo whined, “You’re such a mama’s boy cry baby,” Kadaj protest.

“Leave me alone!”

“Enough,” I yell. The boys jump. “Loz…” He hands me the materia. “Sorry mommy,” he says with tears in he’s eyes.

“Here we go,” Kadaj sighs. I glare at him before giving Loz a kiss on the head and going over to my office to hide the materia away. “Why are you so opposed to them playing with that,” Sephiroth asked me. I hadn’t even noticed he had followed me upstairs.

“Because they’re your kids,” I answered. “Now scram! I don’t want you knowing where this puppy is either.”

“We have a puppy,” Yazoo yells. “No dogs,” Sephiroth protest walking away from my office. Once again I choose to sit down at my desk and type a bit, putting the materia down on the desk within my eyesight. I’ll give in an hour or so and then hide this thing. Sephy and the boys should be bored of waiting by then.

Later

“So how’d it go,” Sephiroth asked as my feet dragged though the bedroom door.

“Apparently… Zelda’s a bird now.” Sephy just stared at me, a confused look in his eyes. “During on of the scenes, Zelda’s ear fell off. So Ganondorf said she was molting, and Link made the comment that she was a bird.” More confused staring. “Never mind, clearly you had to be there.”

“I’ll pass,” he said. “Not so sure I want anything to do with whatever show this is.”

“Legend of Zelda the Musical dear.”

“Massive waste of time for a good cause. Tell me, do you think this makes up for marrying me or something.” I glare at him.

“No, I think I like working theater and I like the idea behind the show and you know it wouldn't kill you to support a good cause every now and again.”

“I tried that,” he smiled, “They called me a villain and then I met you my love.”

“You tried to crash a meteor into the plant,” I remind him.

“For a good cause. I wanted to rid the world of men like Hojo and start over on a distant star.”

“Romantic,” I shake my head and turn to chance into my pjs. “By the way, I’m meeting up with Lizzy early tomorrow to work though some things.” I hear him groan behind me. I turn to face him, “I would appreciate if you and the boys didn't do anything stupid while I’m gone. No meteors, no materia and I swear to the gods I get a call from the cops to bust you out or one of my babies ends up in the hospital…”

“You’ll bury me alive in the deepest, darkest cave you can find,” He finished. “ You've been using that one for years and I haven’t woken up in a coffin yet.” He gets up from the bed and makes his way over to me, “And it hasn't stopped me either.” He gives me a kiss on the head and walks out of the room.

A horrible feeling washes over me. I run into my office and look in the safe in the closet were I had the gold materia locked away in… gone. “Sephiroth!!!!!”
