My remake of the story that I've been meaning to do. This will hopefully be a lot better then the first chapter I wrote last year, please like it XD haha I'm going to continue this and hopefully you guys will like it.


The pale blue waves crashed against the rocks at the base of the cliff, letting the droplets of liquid fall down in front of the mysterious woman. She started heading to the water, her eyes looking at the distance ahead. Her feet stopped moving when the liquid of the ocean touched her toes.

"Zelda…" A voice said, catching the girls attention. As she turned to look at the person, a blinding light forced her eyes to shut.

The only thing she saw, were the blue eyes.


Her eyes shot open, and heart beating against her chest rapidly as she tried to catch her breath. That same dream caused the indifferent emotions every time she had it. Every day she had it, for the last month. The voice has been in her mind for who-knows-how-long! It started to torment her… Maybe even haunting her now.

Who is that..? Who's voice is that? She asked herself when she awoke from her sleep.

"Zelda!" A voice boomed through the house, startling the young princess.

She held her head and closed her eyes before replying, "Yes?" She sat up, slowly, looking around the room to be sure that there was no one else in her room.

"It's time for you to come downstairs! Your mother would like to have a small word with you!" His voice yelled once more before ceasing and letting the house go back to its delicate state.

"Yes, father." She replied, lifting the covers from her body.

Her mind was running through so many different thoughts as she stood and head to the shower.

This voice is so… Calming, kind… it sounds so full of love… I have never heard it before, it's… one of a kind. So unique and genuine…

She started the shower and silently stepped into it, letting her eyes close from the warm touch. Many things have bothered her lately, all she wants now, is to leave. Maybe even run away. A sigh escaped her lips and she ran her fingers through her blonde hair. Silently exiting the shower, she grabbed a towel, wrapping it around her fragile body, and then moved the hair out of her eyes.

She turned and looked out into her room, watching the wind move the curtains hanging in front of the open window.

She moved, slowly, to the closet, picking out her dress to wear for the day, the same one as usual.

Her eyes closed as she finished putting the outfit on for the day, but then her mind went back to the voice. The voice from the dream. She seemed so bent up on this dream that thinking about it for much longer might make her insane. She didn't even notice her mother walk into the room to speak with her about some important matters.

She sat on the bed and with her soft, caring, voice she said her daughter's name softly, "Zelda?"

"Y-Yes?" The princess replied, turning to her mother with a lump now forming in her throat.

Her mother pat the bed next to her with a sigh, knowing something was wrong. Zelda's feet led her to the bed and she sat down next to her mother, her eyes locked onto her hands that were folded in her lap.

"What's on your mind, young one?" She could always, just always, tell when something was on her mind.

"I've been having these…. weird dreams lately, mother…" She whispered, enlacing her fingers with each other as she talked. Her voice was very soft, and the whispers were barely audible.

"Oh? About what, darling?" Her voice was calming Zelda's thundering heart.

"About… a voice… the same voice has been heard in my dreams for the last month…" Zelda closed her eyes, looking to the ceiling. "A young male's voice, mother…"

"A young man?" Her mother seemed shocked for the moment, but then it went back to being comforting. "I'm sure it'll become clear soon, my darling daughter." She put her arm around her loved one and closed her eyes.

Zelda leaned against her mom, letting a soft reply slip from her lips, "I hope so… I just… I would like to know who it is…"

"Oh. I wanted to tell you that I would like you to meet someone downstairs. It's important, please hurry." She said, literally shrugging off the words her daughter had said.

"I'll go with you." Zelda smiled and closed her eyes. "I'm ready." She stood up and went down with her mother, slowly.

Zelda closed her door after looking to the window once more. She remembered it was open, but there was no time for her to close it if this was so important for her to meet this one person down at the Great Hall.


They came to a stop at the bottom of the stairs, seeing a very tall, dark skinned man standing there, talking to Zelda's father, the beloved one of her mother. The black armor that he was wearing, they scared the young princess. The jewels that were engraved on the armor were beautiful, but they didn't seem to shine with all the might they had. A small presence made it's way around her and she noticed it very well, it wasn't good, it was more like a dark presence.

"Zelda. This is Ganondorf." Her mother said to her, taking her hand and pulling it towards the man.

"Princess Zelda…" The man said with his deep, intimidating, voice. "It is an honor…" He bowed to the girl and a smirk appeared on his lips.

Zelda nodded and bowed as well, keeping her eyes locked onto the jewels on his armor, trying to find out why they weren't shining fully.

It's not his voice… I know that… At least… I hope it's not.

I stood straight up, laying my hands down folded across my torso.

"He has come to ask your hand in marriage." Her father said quickly, too quickly.

My eyes widened and I let out a stutter, "b-but you didn't talk to m-"

"I did not intend to, Zelda. He is a prince, the Prince of the Gerudo's. and you are a princess. The Princess of Hyrule."

Him?! No, why..?

I turned to my father and looked into his eyes, unbelieving of what he had just told me.

"Believe me, Zelda," his voice was firm. "You are to marry him. We are already arranging the wedding. There is no use in fighting about it."

Of course, the young girl had to obey. She nodded and closed her eyes, then turned to the door.

"I am going out, Father. Mother." She said softly, starting out.

"Hurry back, Zelda." They both said, one after the other.

What was the hurry… Making me marry without my approval.

"Yes mother, father." She said and started out to the stables holding her dear horse.

She reached the stables, holding the brown and white haired horse. Her name fit her perfectly, Epona. Zelda rose her hand to pet the lovely creature and it seemed as though the horse calmed when she did so. Zelda opened the stable and Epona clopped out, stopping in front of her owner, allowing her to get on her back.

Before she did, she grabbed the cloak that was handing next to the stable, slipping it on and putting the hood up, then she got on the horses back.

"Hya!" She yelled and Epona galloped off into the Maln Forest.

A sudden flash of a green hat appeared in her mind but she shook it off, for she didn't want to get into an accident while being out late.

She heard a sword in the forest make contact with a tree or two as the two entered the forest. Zelda gasped and made Epona slow to a walk, trying to find out where this slashing was coming from, if anything at all.

"Saya!" A voice was heard that made the girls' eyes widen.

"Zelda…"

She pulled on the reigns Epona was wearing and stopped her fully as they neared the person with the voice. She jumped off the horse and landed on the ground. She looked around silently, hearing another movement, not too far away.

"H-Hello?" Her voice quivered, eyes darting around the forest. She put her hand on her chest, feeling the beating of her heart speed up by a numerous amount of times.

She heard a gasp and then feet shuffling around, then she took another two or three steps forward before stopping after snapping a twig. She bit her lip, closing her eyes and praying she didn't scare the man away.

"Please… come out." She whispered, putting her hand up against a tree next to Epona. "I'm not going to hurt you…" She finished, sighing softly as she held onto the necklace around her neck.

"That's…" The voice said, shocked he even said anything in the first place. "That's what they all say…" He finished, coming out from behind a tree about 10 feet away from her.

It was a surprise to see someone so clearly in the dark. The pale peach skin color, and the green tunic. The bright blue eyes…

Wait, those look like the same eyes in my dream!

Her eyes widened at the memory and she stepped closer to the young man, but he took a step back, thinking she was danger to him.

The green hat caught her off guard as well. It covered his blonde hair, mostly but it was like that flashback came into her thoughts. She took her eyes off the hat and looked to his ears.

Just… Just like mine…

She closed her eyes and smiled, then steadied herself, not remembering she had the cloak on.

After a moment she looked back at the man to see that he was looking dead into hers but then he glanced down to the necklace she was wearing, the one she was holding so dearly to her. It also looked like he was getting closer so she took a step towards him, shocked he didn't step away, but shocked because he took one closer as well.

He got close enough to take the hood off her head, so he did. She kept her eyes closed until he raised her chin to see what she looked like under the hood. She looked up to him.

"My name… It's Zelda." She said slowly, not wanting to scare him away.

"Link." He said, almost as though he was waiting for her to introduce herself.

Link… Is this your voice in my dreams…? The voice I continually hear?

She closed her eyes and leaned against the tree now behind her, letting her grasp fall from the necklace around her neck.

A quick and soft clack was heard and she opened her eyes, looking at him to be sure nothing was happening. He was just making sure that his sword was safely put into the sheath that he had, behind his shield.

A little fairy floated from his tunic and circled around the princess, glowing a light blue color.

Zelda giggled lightly, also becoming more open. "Who's this?"

"This is Navi." He smiled at her and she smiled back.

"What are you two doing out here?" She put her hands out for Navi to land on. "It's dangerous out here…" She whispered as the fairy landed softly on her hands. She smiled even more and rose the fairy up to her cheek, pressing her against the soft skin. She seemed to shiver lightly, but then she calmed down after a moment.

"Training. And what about you? You're out here too." Link's voice made Zelda look up at him with a warm smile, like it was the only thing that could complete her, and she didn't want it to leave.

"I wanted to get away from my father. Coming here, away from my home seemed like a good idea, no?" She laughed a little, letting Navi fly back over to her master.

"What happened with your father?" Link crossed his arms in front of him and looked at Zelda intently, a small smile across his lips.

"He told me I had to marry 'royalty', just because I'm the Princess of Hyrule. And then he tells me I can't choose who I would like to marry but decides it's alright to set up a marriage with a Gerudo. Who seems evil none-the-less." She let a sigh escape her lips and closed her eyes again, sadly.

"P-Princess?" Link stepped back, shocked, not knowing what to say.

Zelda looked up to him and smiled again. "Yes. I am Zelda, the Princess of Hyrule."

Link stepped forward and circled me, like Navi did when she first saw me. "Didn't think someone as pretty as you would be a princess. Especially when you're hiding yourself with a cloak no less. And usually, princesses are all short and chubb-"

"Excuse me." She interrupted, smiling with him, knowing he was kidding with her.

Usually when she looked into people's eyes, she never saw the beauty in them, nor the truthfulness. But his… they were different to her.

"Where… Where did you come from?" She wondered, looking into his incredible eyes, like they were holding some sort of secret from her.

"The Kokiri Forest." He said, glancing behind him to the cave.

"Oh yes. The forest behind the Maln Forest is the Kokiri Forest." Zelda reminded herself. "Where all the Kokiri live? Why did you leave?" She questioned him.

She looked to his left hand as a very pale shine of a triangle through his gloves. This made her eyes widen and she almost jumped in her skin. Reaching out, she grabbed his hand and looked at it, but when she did, it was gone. She pondered there for a moment or two, giving Link the time to scan her puzzled expression.

Did I just see a… A piece of-

"Zelda?" His voice seemed to have a small hint of worry in it, and it made Zelda look up at him.

"Yes?" She looked at him and smiled a little, letting his hand go. "Sorry about that… I thought I saw… something very familiar…"

"It's not a problem." He replied and shook his head, pulling out some sort of flute.

This made Zelda tilt her head in confusion.

"What is that?" She pointed to it and stared up into his eyes, not being able to look away from the beauty they created.

"Ocarina." he said simply, shugging his shoulders slightly.

"I see." Zelda turned and looked at where the sun was, it was already setting, and she needed to get back home before dark. "I should go…" She turned back and saw that his eyes shone less then before.

Link nodded and after a moment Zelda noticed that Navi looked like she was talking to him.

"We'll take you there. It's late and we don't want you getting hurt. Might be nice to have someone with such experience as me." He said with a small hint of cockiness in his voice. "But only if it's okay with you." He chuckled as he noticed the blush rising on her cheeks.

"I… I would really like that." She admit to him, turning and looking at Epona. A smile grew on her face, and she kissed the pendant on her necklace before Link walked up next to her.

He rose his hand up to Epona's fur, not worried at all what the horse might do. Epona didn't do anything, no rejection like usual with the other strangers she met. He smiled and jumped up, swinging his leg up and around her back, then he looked down at Zelda with a questioning smile.

"You're going to get on, right?" He wondered, putting his hand out for her to grab onto.

She stuttered one moment before grabbing his gloved hand and getting onto the horse's back behind him. Before he could say anything, her arms had already wrapped around his waist and she didn't let go.

"How old are you, Link?" She asked him after a moment of silence, his name was so graceful to say, it brought butterflies to her stomach. And good ones at that.

"I'm 17." He said softly, glancing back at me but then looking back out into the distance to see the castle.

"You're… You're young." She smiled and nuzzled her head into his back.

"And yourself, ma'am?" His voice sounded playful now, and Zelda giggled.

Ma'am? Please. How could you ever think of calling me that, Link?

"Don't call me 'ma'am', sir." She giggled softly. "You can call me Zelda." She told him as Navi came out of her hiding place, which was in Link's tunic, and she flew into the sky swiftly. "I'm… I'm 17, too." Zelda said slowly, watching the fairy as she motioned to the castle.

Black clouds were hovering over the highest points of the mansion and Zelda gasped, closing her eyes. Another flash appeared in her mind, like the one that showed the green hat Link wore, and she saw three triangles, lined up to make a bigger triangle, but she couldn't make out what. It seemed very familiar. She saw two more figures in front of the symbol, a tall man, with dark skin, and the other one. She couldn't make anything else out. The only other thing that was recognizable about the second figure was the fact he held onto the family heirloom.

"Zelda?" Link's voice brought her back into reality.

She opened her eyes, slowly and cautiously, not knowing she was on the ground and Link was hovering over her, worried. His gloved hands were on either side of her face and she could feel her muscles tense but then relax against the leather.

"Are you okay?" His voice seemed to be worried, more worried then it was the last time, and she nodded, unable to speak.

He glanced at the Hyrule Castle, behind him, his eyes filling with horror. He wanted Zelda to lay down, and she could feel him pushing her back and onto the ground. She stood up though and sat next to him, falling over and into his chest.

A throbbing pain hit her in the back of her head and she let out a wince. Link didn't let her face go, and he looked at her again, the worried expression becoming worse.

"The… The temple…" She whispered, her voice quavering again.

She grabbed his hands and he looked down at her, his eyes locked onto mine but she couldn't look up at him.

After a moment she did and her voice was soft, "Link… I need to know… What do you have on you… In your bag?"

The Spiritual Stones…

"What do you mean?" He questioned, dropping his hands from her face.

"Do you have anything… important that you got on your way here…?" She closed her eyes.

He looked down to his pockets, moving one hand away from her face and opening the bag. Then he pulled out three stones, a green one, red one, and blue one.

How… did he get these…?

"Link." She said with ease. "Take me to the castle." She told him strictly, not taking 'no' for an answer.

He nodded and grabbed her arm gently, putting it around his shoulders to raise her off the ground. As he was starting to stand, he looked back down at her, noticing their faces were just inches apart. He rose his other hand to her chin, making her eyes start to close but then she opened them again.

"Zelda…" He said softly.

Zelda could feel the breath on her lips and she wanted to lean closer, to wrap her arms around him and pull him close, but it took all her strength to not do anything she was thinking, it was risky right now.

"Yes?" She opened her eyes to see him smile, and his eyes glisten, and his voice, being so tempting, she was drawn into his trance.

"How… How quickly do you need to be at the castle?" He asked, not being able to look away.

She closed her eyes and smiled but then it was broken.

"Where's Navi?"

The little poof-ball just appeared in front of Zelda's face in an instant, pulling itself right against her cheek. She sighed softly but covered it with a giggle then looked back up at Link, just as he dropped his hand.

"Take me to the castle. I have a feeling I know what's going on." She told him calmly, not wanting to worry him more then he was.

He looked at her, his eyes full of question but she kept her patience, "please, Link. Just trust me. I know it's hard to trust a stranger."

Though that's not what you feel like to me…

She leaned up to his cheek and pressed her lips against them, closing her eyes.

He seemed shocked by the kiss Zelda had just given him but she noticed that his cheek became a soft red, like a pink color, and she giggled.

"Are you ready?" She let the words come out in a whisper, since that was the only way they could come out anyways.

He nodded and turned back to the horse, standing up with Zelda's arm around his neck. She stood beside him, gently touching Navi as he rose her up and on top of Epona, getting on right after me. She closed her eyes as her arms coiled around him again. He chuckled softly and yelled for Epona to run as fast as she could to the castle.

I'm sure it'll become clear soon… Her mothers' voice echoed through her mind.

The pieces are really falling into place… aren't they?

She opened her eyes quickly to find Link with his sword out beside him. She glanced up for a moment to see Ganondorf in front of the two of them.

"Zelda…" His voice was disgusting, she wanted to gag when she heard it. "How kind of you to finally show up." He cackled the words, pulling the reigns on his horse to turn around towards the princess.

"What did you do?" Link asked before me, anger rising in his usually calm voice.

"Simply, nothing. Now if you excuse me. I have to go." Ganondorf waved good bye with an evil smug look on his face, galloping off on his horse.

"I don't believe him…" Zelda whispered, touching Link's shoulder softly. "We're… Almost there, stay with me… please?" She smiled to him, trying to make the worry go away.

He nodded to her and smiled once again, that one beautiful smile, it made butterflies rise in her stomach. He made Epona walk to the castle now, they weren't in a hurry this time, right?

The castle was back in order, everything the same way they were before Zelda left. But that wasn't was Zelda was worried about.

Epona was put back into the stables and Zelda grabbed Links hand, feeling that if she let him go he would disappear. She needed him where in case something were to happen.

I'm… so frightened…

She pushed the doors to the castle open and looked inside frantically, trying to find one or two familiar faces.

"F-Father?" Her voice called through the room. "Mother?"

"Zelda." A woman's voice chimed towards her.

Zelda looked towards her with a smile and felt relaxed all of the sudden.

"Are you alright? You seemed to have just come into the castle with a really bad aura. Is everything well?" She asked her daughter, lightly touching her cheek with her hand.

She didn't notice the black clouds? The evil in the sky? And Ganondorf being the cause of it? That… isn't like my mother…

"Yes. I'm fine." She looked up at her mom and noticed that her eyes were locked onto Link, then a smile overcame her lips.

Zelda turned towards him as well and motioned for him to come near. "This is Link, mother. He accompanied me on my way back to the castle."

"Very nice to meet you." She smiled to him and then looked back at me.

Zelda could tell her mother had some questions, but those could wait for a little while.

"Ask me later, mother. Please." She said softly, knowing that her mother wanted to ask her why she was with Link.

I just would like to be with him for a little longer… just a little longer…

"Alright. I'm going to talk to your father then." She turned to Link. "Feel free to look around, Link." She turned on her heel with a small smile and walked off.

Something's different…

Zelda turned back to Link, letting a smile find a way over her lips with ease. She just couldn't hind the happiness inside her when she looked at him. Her heart fluttered and her muscles would always tense when she saw him.

"What would you like to do?" She asked him, taking a step towards the Hylian.

"You're… You're the Princess of Hyrule. I'm just a lowly person. Why would you let me into your home?" He pondered, having a small hint of sadness in his voice.

"Because you seem so nice and I really want to be able to get to know him more." She said out of the blue, smiling even more to him.

Maybe I'll tell him about the family legend. It might be a good idea…

"Actually…" Zelda started and looked up at him to let their eyes meet again. "Link?""Yes, Zelda?" He said with a small hint of sarcasm and playfulness in his voice.

"Let's sit down first. I have to tell you some thing's about our family if you don't mind." She said and walked towards the living room.

He followed her and sat down next to her, looking around the room in awe. She remembered the old legend, the pieces really did seem to be coming together, very quickly at that as well.

"Are you ready?" Her voice was soft again and her hands stiffened a little against her lap, but then she took a deep breath in, knowing everything was going to be okay.

"Anytime you are." He smiled to her, leaning back onto the cushions to relax, but then he sat back up.

He looks old enough to beat him… I knew, I just knew, that he had evil in him… even if it was just a little, I knew…

"Wait." He caught Zelda's attention with his words, his voice actually.

"Yes?" She turned and looked up at him, letting the butterflies flutter faster in her stomach.

"I would like to try something, may I?" His voice was soft as he rose his hand to her cheeks, lightly caressing her skin.

"Y-Yes…" She said softly, leaning her head into his gloved hand willingly. "You may…"

He smiled to her and continued to lightly caress her skin with his thumbs. He trailed his fingers down her cheek to her lips and then he wrapped one of his hands around her neck, slowly. Her eyes closed as she saw him start to move forward.

I'm not going to let you pull me in, Link…

She could feel even more nervous as he did this, not being able to tell what was going to happen. Let alone… with him still around in the darkness.


Chapter 2 should be out soon, keep in touch!
