Hey, y'all! You can call me Lacie. A friend of mine Courtney (otherwise known as TheMultiColoredPencil here) and I have decided to write a fanfic together. c: This is going to focus on our OCs, Petra and Kelly-Rose in the world of Twilight Princess! Instead of each typing out our own chapters and alternating, we will both be working on the same chapters, and therefore will be in the same authors note! So from here on, we will let you know which one of us is talking. Without further ado, enjoy!
A crisp gust of wind blowed over eastward as 17-year old Kelly-Rose walked outside, with a bag in her hand. She had gotten out from school around ten minutes ago. When she walked out of the building, her best friend, Petra, had texted her, asking for her to come over to her house. Along the rather long text message she got, Petra had sent "I bet you're gonna love one of the gifts I got today c;" which made Kelly wonder what the younger girl was talking about.
After receiving the text, she had rushed back home to dump her school bag in her room. She came back out with a tinier bag that held some money, her phone and earbuds, and a tiny bottle of water. She had also changed her shoes. Earlier, she was wearing black Vans. Now, she was wearing her favorite mint-green wedges, which were nice and polished just for the occasion.
Kelly slightly shifted the plastic bag she held on to in her hand. She had expected Petra to come to school today, as the plastic bag had held her gift in it. But Petra didn't come to school at all. She was probably having a blast at home.
Another gust of wind blew, Kelly's two pastel-haired pigtails flowing in the direction of the wind.
"Oh my gosh! For spring, the weather is still so cold!" Kelly heard a girl shout.
She snorted under her breath. You seriously don't know the definition of "cold," friend. She thought. Before moving to a tiny town in Pennsylvania, she had lived and endured the harsh northern weather of Alaska. Though she grew to like the coldness, she didn't like how dark the skies in Alaska were.
Kelly had looked down at her attire. Along with a long sleeved white blouse and a coat on top of it, she wore a sky-blue skirt without any tights, leggings or thigh-highs. And she was faring well in the rather crisp weather of Pennsylvania.
After walking for another five minutes, she stopped in front of Petra's house; a tiny house with a bit of curb appeal.
Kelly walked to the door and rang the doorbell. It made a pretty, but unnecessarily long, song.
The door opened, and the newly sixteen-year old girl, Petra was there, garbed in her favorite oversized red sweater and black leggings. Her glasses were tucked on the collar of her sweater. She had put more eyeliner on her eyes than usual. Knowing Petra, despite for only a couple months after moving to Pennsylvania, she treated herself and had her sister do her eyes for her since it was her birthday. Her expression appeared as soft and mellow as usual, but she smiled her usual smile as soon as her grey eyes saw her friend at the door.
"Took you long, Miss Alaska," Petra greeted the older girl, raising a brow. The wind blew from outside, her ombre-dyed hair blowing along with the gust of wind.
"Well I had to do things at home, you know?" Alaska answered. The older girl suddenly noticed how quiet the house was. Usually, the house would be full of various sounds. The quietest would be having just the TV on.
"Where is everyone?" She was referring to Petra's parents and twin older siblings.
"Oh! My parents went to get something, while my brother and sister have work. My sister is coming back in another hour," Petra replied.
Kelly nodded and said, "Anyways, I've changed into the green wedges I was talking about," as she looked down at her shoes.
Petra looked at Kelly's shoes. "They're so pretty! They suit you! But..." She giggled as she looked at Kelly. "You look like a Sailor Moon fighter."
"... Really?" Kelly said. She nodded her head in false disbelief. "Anyways, happy birthday!" She gave the plastic bag to Petra.
"Lemme close the door, or else we'll freeze both of our asses from the cold," Petra said as she took the plastic bag.
"More like you'll freeze your ass from the pleasant weather..." Kelly muttered as she stepped inside the house.
"Excuse me? What did you say?" Petra retorted as she closed the door. She turned the lock on the door knob, making a clank sound as she did.
"Nothing," Kelly said with a slick smile.
Petra returned the slick smile at Kelly.
"Why are you smiling at me, you nerd?" The Alaskan girl chuckled, emphasizing the word "nerd." She knew that her friend hated being referred to as a nerd. But no matter how many times the younger girl denied it, Petra did have a number of aspects that could label her off as a nerd. She even attends the anime club at the high school that both girls go at. That's how both of the girls came to know and befriend each other.
"Me? A nerd?" Petra frowned.
"Anyway, what was the gift you got that you ever so eagerly texted me about?" Alaska continued.
Petra only grinned at that, running to her pale-blue colored room with Kelly-Rose, where she pulled out a copy of Twilight Princess. Alaska looked at her friend with an amazed expression. Petra has never played any Legend of Zelda game, so this was a start.
"I haven't started yet. I figured we could play it together, seeing that you'd love it!" Petra said, using Alaska's facial expression as proof.
"Oh my gosh! You finally got a Legend of Zelda game!" Alaska exclaimed.
"Two of them, actually!" Petra corrected, "My brother got me 'A Link Between Worlds' as well!"
"That's so cool! Two at once!" Alaska enthusiastically said. She then placed her hand on her stomach and frowned, "But I'm kind of hungry. Do you have any snacks?"
"I have pizza on the way, just the way you like it, so don't worry, Alaska. Anyways, let's go to the living room and set the game up there. You can make yourself at home!"
Kelly-Rose, affectionately deemed Alaska by her friend, grabbed her light blue bag. which had clouds on them. The girl was a great lover of pastel and cute, whereas Petra had a more darker colored and trendy hipster style.
The two girls made their way downstairs to the large living room. Kelly-Rose plopped down on one of the soft and comfortable couches, while Petra dashed back upstairs to her room to get the Wii remotes and Numchuks.
Once the girl returned, Petra was setting up the Wii, talking about how much she had awaited the game as it was one of the only ones that she was looking forward to playing.
"Alright! Everything's set up!" She said as she clicked the Twilight Princess button on the home screen. The girls sat there and watched, and the TV was blank-screened for a couple seconds before shutting off.
"Argh!" Petra groaned as she went to the Wii. Its power button was red. She pressed the button again.
The Wii started along quite smoothly. Petra pointed her remote and chose the Twilight Princess option once again.
"Hopefully, it'll work!" Alaska encouraged Petra.
They stared at the TV. Once again, it was blank and then turned off. While Petra was still staring at the screen in confusion, Alaska was the one to notice that the Wii crashed again, noticing the red light from the power button.
"It turned off," she muttered as she went to the Wii and pressed the button again. As the Wii booted up, she sat back down on the couch and commented, "I honestly don't remember anyone's Twilight Princess game having that problem. Must be an old disk or something."
Everything was smoothly once again. And this time, the Wii was able to boot up the game when Petra chosen it. The opening went along well, showing the dazzling scene of Link riding around in Hyrule Fields in the sunset until he turned into a wolf and howled. When the logo came on, Petra murmured, "That's some nice art right there," before pressing the buttons.
Petra was able to choose a file and named her character (Link), and the horse (she had wanted to give it an immature name, but instead left it as "Epona"). Once everything was done, the game loaded to the first cutscene. While Petra hadn't noticed anything wrong with the cutscene, Kelly-Rose had.
"Wait... This isn't right," the pastel haired girl commented as she looked at the TV with an odd expression.
"Hm? What is it?" Petra asked, tilting her head slightly.
The pastel hair colored girl pulled out her equally-as-pastel-as-her-hair phone and snapped a few photos. "This would be interesting on post on my Tumblr blog..." she muttered to herself with a giggle.
Petra looked at Kelly-Rose with a thrown-off expression. Out of all the times to talk about blogging, why now? she thought before asking again, "What is it?"
"Oh?" Kelly-Rose noticed Petra repeating her question, "My bad. Anyways, he's in the wrong clothes... The dialogue is wrong... I think you got a bugged version of the game... Sorry."
Petra was visibly upset by this, pouting and looking as if she was going to cry and yell. "My first Legend of Zelda game, though..."
"I brought Skyward Sword though. And hey, you didn't open my gift yet!"
"Hmm? Oh yeah!" Petra's expression changed as she reached out for the plastic bag. She pulled out a odd-looking doll. It looked like a penguin with a bush attached to its back.
"W-What is this?" Petra asked, holding back a snicker.
"It's from Skyward Sword!" Alaska answered, "It's known as a Kikwi!"
"Ohhhh..." Petra looked closely at the Kikwi doll. After a while, she decided,"I'll name it Nori. It reminds me of that name."
Alaska nodded. "You have another gift."
Petra dug her hand through the plastic bag. "Nice!" She exclaimed as she pulled out a pair of black socks patterned with golden Triforces.
Alaska beamed. "I knew you'll love them!"
While the younger of the two examined the gifts, the pastel haired girl noticed something even more off. She stood up abruptly. "Why is the screen glowing?!"
Petra held the plush closer as she made her way towards the glowing screen. Suddenly, the TV had absorbed one of her arms.
"What the hell!?" Petra exclaimed as her limb was attached inside the TV. She felt wind trying to push her inside as she clutched her Kikwi doll closer to her.
She was petrified as she turned to Alaska, who had an even more petrified and pale look.
"A-Alaska? Are the games suppose to do this?" Petra ask.
Before anything else could happen, they were enveloped by blinding white.
