So, here I am; with Ilia, as the last two Human in Hyrule.
I guess I wouldn't choose anyone else, to be stuck with, in a rather apocalyptic Hyrule.
So, what happened to Hyrule, you may ask.
Well, that's a long story. Come on, closer, closer, GOD DAMN IT GET CLOSER, STOP WASTING MY TIME!
Okay, so…
It was a normal day, in the small town Ordon. I had began to get lectured about keeping my horse, Epona, more safe. My my life long friend, Ilia was the perpetrator. I understand that it was only because she had cared; didn't want me or Epona to kill ourselves or get damaged. Sometimes I believe that she is too serious.
"Alright, alright, calm down Ilia." I said whilst gesturing my hands downwards with my palms outwards.
Ilia grunted before she crossed her arms.
I sighed in reply. I continued "Well, let's fix her up, before we argue and waste time." before smirking lightly. The truth was, I thought she was winsome when she became angry, so I was that guy that would pester the ones he liked to on their nerves.
As began to fix the injuries in which I had accidentally inflicted on Epona, it started to get dark; gloomy. "What?!" I said in surprise. "It's Night, already? I just woke up!" I continued, exclaiming. Ilia giggled "Well, maybe you shouldn't be so lazy as to wake when others fall asleep; you'll become nocturnal!" "Hah!" I replied "If I woke when you guys did, I would have to actually do work!" Ilia didn't look all too impressed "Oh? So you just sleep in to not work? Maybe I should inform the adults, make sure that you're awake and working away earlier?" I scoffed and the conversation ended.
We finished helping Epona recover from her wounds and began to walk home, placing Epona in her pin and saying our farewells for the night. I entered my house and went to bed. I slept very well that night, I actually had woken up before midday on the following day. I still didn't do my work.
When I woke up and left my house, I immediately decided that I would ride Epona again, of course Ilia was waiting for me. "Link, you have work to do!" She scolded. "I don't care." I replied with a smirk, whilst hopping onto Epona. "Liiink!" She sighed. "Y'know, when you refuse your responsibilities I have to do them." she continued, frowning. "Oh, boo-hoo." I mocked her, continuing with "Don't do them, then." I held my hand out to her, to pull her onto the horse. She crossed her arms. "Fine, be boring, then." I laughed, riding off.
When I returned home later that day, Bo (Ilia's father) was waiting for me, his arms were crossed. He scolded me me about the usual stuff, not doing my work. I didn't pay attention or care.
I was told to apologize to Ilia and that I had all of her work on the following day. Of course, one of those things never would happen.
I walked to Ilia's house and into her room to give her my less than sincere apologies.
The sounds of multiple hoofs slamming against the ground was heard soon after. Ilia and I quickly glanced in the direction of the cacophony, we rushed outside to see a horde of Bokoblins, charging through the town. Ilia's eyes widened, she had become frozen in place. Some of the Bokoblins veered towards us, I roughly shoved Ilia out of the way, before I ran in the same direction in which I pushed her. They stopped, getting off of their Bullbos' starting to slowly walk towards us. I unsheathed the wooden sword that I had received earlier, they paused laughingly. I found myself swinging it shortly after, of course I missed and hit Ilia. She winced with a yelp and fell to the floor muttering something, likely curse words.
When I resumed focused on the Bokoblins, it was too late to react, they had jumped on me; they started beating me with their wooden clubs.
I felt a cold, piercing pain, as they repetitively struck me.
My vision began to return to me swiftly, I saw a red puddle. It was blood.
I quickly, recklessly got jumped onto my feet.
Ilia ran towards me, I instantly dropped into her arms.
"Link! You fool! … Are you okay..."
It took a few moments for me to reply "Sure."
I slowly stood up. "What about you? I hit you by accident." I shamefully asked.
"I'm fi-" There was a big clunk.
One of the Bokoblins had come back and hit her. I, being a genius, attacked it, ignoring her body, which had fallen face first into the spring. After brutally murdering the beast, I picked her up and noticed that she could have drowned. As I muttered a few curse words I put her on my shoulder and and ran too my house. After placing her on my bed, carefully, I decided to examine her injuries. I looked at where I'd hit her with thew wooden sword, I saw a gash with blood pouring out. I wrapped it up with some cloth. I exited the house for a moment to find Epona, she was gone. I sighed before walking back in.
Looking outside of my window, I noticed that the horde was kidnapping children. I was going to unseath my wooden sword, but I noticed it was gone. I lost it.
I was about to punch the wall, when a small, soft hand grabbed my shoulder. I turned around to see Ilia with a small, fearful smile "Is the town okay?"
I shook my head.
She frowned.
"Well… THEN DO SOMETHING!" she scolded. I replied "So patching you up isn't something?" challenging her.
She just scolded me about how this wasn't the time to fool around, she practically threw me out the window afterwards. "Looks like I'll be doing this bare fist" I had thought to myself.
That's it! Don't forget to leave your thoughts in a review!
