Where am I?
"YOU LITTLE BITCH HOW DARE YOU!" my drunken mother screamed at me, swinging the burning hot poker at me again. I screamed as it found its mark, searing my arm.
Tears of pain were running down my face and I dashed towards my room, slammed the door, and locked it.
As soon as the lock clicked, my mother was pounding on the door, trying to come in. I kept my sobs quiet and packed my things in a bag, including my phone and charger.
I threw the window of our two story house open and jumped, landing smoothly on my feet, one of my fists to the ground for balance.
I dashed towards my friend's house, pulling out my phone and speed dialing her number on the way.
"He-*yawn*-llo?" I heard the groggy voice of Mira ring out on the other end and, in my relief, a sob escaped me.
"Open the door….please?" I whimpered.
There was the sound of the phone hanging up as I reached her lawn and the door swung open as she ran outside with her father, who happened to still be awake.
"Amber! Oh, Amber, you're hurt worse than last time!" Mira cried, hugging me. Her father picked me up and carried me inside, setting me on the couch. As he went to go get bandages, Mira brought me some tissues and I blew my nose and wiped my eyes (with separate tissues, of course).
Her father came back in and bandaged me up and Mira dragged me up to her room, turning on both Wiis on at the same time.
I smiled. Mira always knew how to cheer me up.
She handed me the remote to my Wii just as the twilight princess screen popped up and we started our games. I laughed.
"Just give up, you know I'm going to beat you, Mira," I snickered.
We hit pay and Mira gasped, falling forward.
"Mira! Are you- nngh!" I grunted as i blacked out also.
I woke to the sound of hoofbeats and male laughter.
I quickly closed my eyes as two horses broke through the trees into the clearing.
"Hey, Dark, look," said the first voice, strong and comforting.
Wait, Dark? How did he sound familiar?
"Yeah what is it, Link?" Dark asked the other male.
My eyes snapped open and I gasped, bolting upright. Sure enough, there they were, Dark and Link, the hero of time and his shadow.
A thought came to mind and i jumped up, eyes scanning the clearing. I saw Mira unconsious a few feet away.
"MIIIIIRAAAAA!" I cried, running over to her and shaking her awake. She groaned and looked up at me.
"Amber! Oh, you're ok!" she screached, throwing her arms around me.
I hugged her back and whispered in her ear.
"Now just look over my shoulder aaaaaand-"
"HOLY SHIT IT'S LINK! AND DARK!" she squealed excitedly and i laughed as she tackled a startled Link off of his horse.
Two more horses came into the clearing, a white mare walked up to Mira and the black stallion walked confidently over to me.
I grinned and hopped onto his back, riding over to where Mira and Link were getting on their horses.
I looked to Mira and we exchanged glances that said: 'this is gonna be sweet!'
so my first zelda fanfic, tell me what you think!
