Legend of Zelda: The Mysterious Messenger
By Mew Universe
OOC: Ok, this is my first Legend of Zelda story. I hope you like it, and please R&R after you've read all of the chapters there are at the moment.
Rauru flew backwards into a large wall, which instantly turned black. He sank to the floor, moaning, & a large black shadow formed in front of him. The shadow slowly turned into a large, fearsome looking man with cropped blood red hair, black robes, & murderous black eyes. He swished back his cape & looked mercilessly at Rauru as the Sage slowly stood up, his right hand on the wall to support himself, left hand on his leg, breathing heavily. By then, the whole room had gone black, & the Master Sword could not be seen anywhere.
"You foolish old man, you are too weak to even call for help, let alone defeat me," the black man sneered. He had an evil grin on his face.
"You are the foolish one, Ganondorf, for returning to Hyrule, especially when you know Link & the Sages will defeat you, just like before," Rauru replied angrily, standing up to his full height, hand still on the wall.
"Link? HA! I don't think so. If the Sages didn't help him, I could have squashed him like that," Ganondorf scoffed, squeezing his hand into a fist. "And the Sages won't know I'm here until it's too late, since you're too weak to warn them. You can't even contact anyone in Hyrule. So, since that is taken care of, I shall leave you here to die." Ganondorf slowly turned back into a shadow, then disappeared completely. As soon as he left, the room turned back to normal, & the Master Sword became visible again. Rauru summoned a small golden orb & tried to contact Link.
"Link? Link, are you there? LINK!" he said into the orb, but it didn't work. It didn't even show him where Link was. "I guess I'll try again." This time, though, he tried to contact Sariah, then Darunia, then the other Sages in the order they were awakened. "Ganondorf cut off all contact with the Sages! But how? I'd better tell Princess Zelda," he decided, but that didn't work either. Well, if I can't contact anyone in Hyrule, I'll find someone else to tell them for me. But who? Rauru made a portal with some of the magic he had left and stepped through it into the Temple of Light. He let the orb leave his hand and hover in front of him. "Find someone with courage and a kind heart, someone that can be relied on as a messenger," he told the orb, then he started coughing & sank to the ground, moaning. Rauru realized that he only had just enough magic to get the messenger to Hyrule and disguise him/her if necessary. The orb made a port hole above it that swirled and turned purple, then green, then orange, as it searched for someone worthy. It turned several colors before finally becoming magenta and an image of a 13-year old girl with curly mid-back length auburn hair and brown eyes appeared in the porthole. Rauru slowly stood up and a scene with the girl appeared. It showed her acting as a messenger for her mother, who gave her a package to give to her father. Another scene appeared showing the girl helping a little 4-year old boy, who was her brother, bandage his leg after he scraped it. These scenes weren't of any importance to ordinary people, but Rauru could see she was the one. Then a scene appeared which shocked and amazed him.
The girl was walking with another 13-year old girl that had short wavy blonde hair. 2 boys appeared from the house next to the sidewalk and walked up to them.
"Hey Amber, what are you doing with this loser?" a boy with short black hair asked.
"She's not a loser, she's my friend," the auburn haired girl replied.
"Then you don't know how to make real friends if you're with her," the other boy with curly blonde hair retorted.
"OK, then. What is you definition of a 'real friend'?" she asked, annoyed.
"Let's see… some one that isn't hyper, or retarded, or scary looking…" Both boys laughed. By then, the blonde girl was in tears.
"Why don't you go bother someone else, you doeheads?" Amber asked, in defense of her friend.
"Yea." the other girl said quietly.
"Who's the doehead?" the black haired boy replied.
"In fact, what IS a doehead?" the blonde boy asked.
"Oh, it's just my word for idiot, which describes people like you," Amber replied. "If you don't like someone's friends, just let them be friends with that person. I let you and Jerry be friends, even though you two are a disaster together."
Jerry (the black haired boy) tried to kick her, but Amber moved her leg and put it under his, tripping him. Gary pulled her hair, but before he could pull any out, Amber dug her nails into his arm, which, leaving large scratch marks, made him let go. Amber and the other girl went to the other side of the street.
"Are you OK, Brittany?" Amber asked the other girl, who nodded, her eyes a little puffy. "Maybe we can find another way to the park so they won't bother us anymore."
"Are those boys always like that?" Brittany asked, looking back and seeing Jerry and Gary as they went back to the house, mad.
"Nah, sometimes they behave, sometimes they're worse," Amber replied.
After that, the porthole turned back to normal. Rauru knew the porthole had chosen perfectly. She was kind, gentle, and will stand up for others and make sure all was right. Her parents relied on her to help her siblings and to deliver messages. He decided that she was the messenger girl.
OOC: Amber is myself, just to let you know. :) I'm just more comfortable with writing in 3rd person. I always use doehead instead of idiot in real life.
