The blue eyed beast

I opened my eyes to see I was standing near my house; I looked down to a puddle on the ground and saw my wolf form look back at me. I looked at my own body just to make sure it was true. It was, I was in wolf form, and then I remembered why I was in wolf form.

"Oh, right." I said to myself. "I was patrolling around Ordon village, sniffing for any enemies." I half laughed because I forgot what I was doing. "I must have dozed off a bit." Then I heard voices coming from behind me, I turned around to see Rusl coming from the village holding his sword.

"Foul beast, I have come to slay you. I have seen you lark around the village at night, but you won't take our children again!" I had to dodge quickly as he swung his sword at me. This is bad, the first time he did this was when I had to get a sword and shield for Midna, and he was injured, but now he was at full heath.

I had to keep on dodging his attacks, but he nicked my side and that's when I decided to run for it. I ran as fast as I could, past the spring, over the bridge, and stopped at the gates to the forest. They were locked and my digging hole was covered up. With no time to dig another hole I ran past Coro's place and into Hyrule field.

I stopped for a minute as I looked behind me, only to find that Rusl was still chasing me, and he brought the rest of the village with him. I quickly started to run again, I ran start towards Hyrule castle only to be stopped by the town's people and castle guards. I had no time to wonder why they were there because they started to come at me with weapons too.

I quickly looked to the right and saw Renado with gorons behind him. I didn't know why everyone was so intent on killing me all of a sudden but I run towards the only clear way I could towards the left. I heard mad shouting but didn't quite hear everything, but I heard enough. Words like, monster, beast, and kill was all I needed to hear.

Then I heard hoof beats as I tried to run faster, people I can out run but horses were a bit different. The fastest horse I know, Epona, once challenged me to a race while I was in wolf form, and I found out I was almost as fast as her. I couldn't keep up the pace with her forever because I lacked stamina.

I quickly looked behind me to see the horse and rider, and I was shocked to see Zelda riding Epona. I didn't understand what was going on as Epona came up behind me, "Master, get on quickly." "I can't do that, Epona. Not in front of all these people, it will look to weird." Zelda quickly shoot a light arrow towards me.

I barely dodged as I screamed, "What are you doing Zelda? Are you trying to kill me?!" "Sorry Link, but I have to make it look like I'm trying to kill you. But these arrows won't kill you they will turn you back to normal." I quickly dodged another arrow and noticed Epona wasn't running as fast as she could.

"Don't do it Zelda! I don't want them to find out this way!" I always wanted to tell them myself, but I was still trying to figure out how to do that. I kept on running and dodging the light arrows, I run until I saw something that made me stop suddenly. Right there in all her glory was Midna, the twilight princess.

I was so surprised that she was here, how did she get here anyways? She broke the mirror of twilight and went to the palace of twilight to rule as the princess a year ago. I just couldn't believe she was here, and she spoke softly, "Link, forgive me. This is my fault for allowing you to keep the shadow crystal."

I was about to say something when she vanished like black mist, and then I felt the arrow hit me as I felt the transformation happening. No not here, please not here I don't want it to be this way. I closed my eyes tight as I felt myself turn back into human form. Then I heard Fado scream, "Link! Hey Link, wake up time to go to work!"

I woke up startled; it was all just a nightmare, a very vivid nightmare. I quickly got dressed and walked outside to find Fado smiling at me. "Hey Link, you okay bud? You look a little pale." "I'm fine; I just didn't sleep well last night." "Well grab Epona and help heard the goats, they are not listening to me again."

I rode Epona though Ordon village and up to the farm where the goats were eating. I thought long and hard about that nightmare, why was everyone trying to kill me? Even the castle guards were chasing me and they are a bunch of scaredy-cats. I even saw Midna; she sends letters to me through the portal above Ordon spring.

I can send letters back to her using my shadow crystal, the only connection between me and the twilight place. I herded the goats into the goat house, and left to go back home. "Thanks bud. See you before sunset." "I'll be here." I shouted as Epona kept walking. I looked at Rusl's house and the nightmare flashed through my mind again.

"I really need to tell everyone before something like my nightmare happens." I muttered. I petted Epona before I got off when we reached my house. "Do you know a way I could do it?" Of course Epona can't talk to me in this form but she wrapped her head around me to show she understood. "Thanks girl. Just promise me you will never chase me down will I'm in wolf form."

She nickered softly at me as she looked at me. Her eyes said, "Why do you want me to promise that?" I patted her again and whispered, "So my nightmares don't come true." I clamed up the ladder and walked into my house. I paused in front of a mirror and looked at my neck. A black chock collar looking necklace surrounded my neck and imbedded in the collar was the shadow crystal.

I decided that the crystal was too dangerous to just leave lying around so when Midna gave it to me she imbedded it in this collar. "This is for you. This leather is the strongest there is, it won't break, snap, or wither." "You're giving me the shadow crystal to keep?" "Yes, use it well." She wrapped it around my neck.

"There, and if people ask why you are wearing this, or what this is just say, it's a gift from a friend who told me to never take it off." "Thank you Midna." "You're welcome. Now you can transform whenever you want, and transform back without my help." I tried it out just to see if I could.

I pressed my chin on the shadow crystal and transformed into my wolf form. "Okay so how do I turn back?" "Just touch this, and it will turn you back." She placed another black leather collar on my neck but with a small light orb on it instead. "Is that a mini sol, Midna?" "Yes, but it's just as powerful as the bigger ones."

"There we are, I hid it perfectly in your fur. No one will be able to see it, and it will turn you back into yourself without the need of the master sword." I touched the mini sol and turned back into human form. "There you see it worked perfectly." "Where did the other collar go?" "Like your shackle it's still on your wolf form." I smiled lightly at the memory. "I miss you a lot, my friend."
