The Legend of Zelda : Chosen
Chapter 1 : The Return
Midna ran across the cobblestone flooring of her throne room "No! Get away!" she screamed at the shadowy figure creeping up on her "Who are you!?" she slipped on her robes and fell to her knees. She turned to him and began to crawl away.
"You know who I am..." it echoed at her.
"No! I don't know you!" she began to sob "Why are you doing this to me!?" she looked to the side of her to see her trusted adviser Souji, on the floor with his intestines strung about on the floor "P-princess... r-r-run.." He gurgled
Midna watched in horror at the poor boy's eyes slowly rolled to the back of his head and take his last breath "S-Souji? wha-" the shadowy figure then grabbed the Twilight Princess by her hair and pulled her close to him.
It then whispered in her ear "There will not be a hero to rescue you this time you Imp!" Midna however was confused by this, she was no longer an Imp and what did he mean this time? "But I am merciful, I will not kill you this day. But I cannot let you stay here or offer you any means of coming back Twilight Princess." Midna began to shake as she thought of what this thing may do to her. "I shall take you're powers from thee, and banish thee back to the realm of light. With the Mirror of Twilight shattered you shall have no means of travailing back."
Midna's eyes widened at this, without her powers the curse that The Usurper King Zant had placed on her long ago would resurface as it had never really gone away as much as she had control of it with the powers of the Twili to keep it suppressed. In other words, she would turn back into an Imp. "NO! PLEASE STOP!" she began to struggle against his grip to no avail "Please! let me go!" tears flowed down her cheeks as she pushed against him frantically trying to escape his grasp.
"There is no more time for this, farewell fair princess." The shadowy figure enveloped Midna in a dark energy and began to suck the power out of her. Midna could feel every molecule of her biochemistry changing as she began to morph back into a imp-like creature. after she had fully transformed he threw her to the ground and pulled out a purple cleaver like weapon from the holster on his side "Now, you are powerless. I shall now banish you to the light realm" Midna looked at her now tiny hands realizing at what this monster had turned her into
"p-please... tell me... w-why..?" she raised her head and glared into his glowing amber pupils "Because you were the Catalyst of the downfall of us..." he then raised his cleaver above her temple and struck!
"Fruit! Fresh Fruit here for sale!" the street-vendor called out to people passing by "Come on people, we got apples, oranges, bananas, and melons! You name it we got it!"
"What a jackass. This guy aint shit, come on Cin lets rob e'm!" a man in-front of the previously mentioned Cinnos whispered "No, the day just started, he doesn't have any Rupees yet." the two thieves kept arguing over if they should rob him or not but Cinnos just sat there, silent. "Cin! Come on, what should we do?" Cinnos scoffed at thees dumb-asses. he was sick of there company.
Cinnos brushed the white hair out of his eyes and looked at his partner "Are you fucking kidding me? your asking Cinnos? you really are a fool Jay." Jay glared at Ron and flashed him the knife on his belt "You want to fight man!?" Cinnos pulled the hood on his cloak over his head and let them have their petty little fight, he was more worried about the guard on the roof glaring him down with a crossbow pointed at him.
"Hey, guard on the roof. Watch out for the arrow's." his partners looked over at Cinnos for a split second before he bolted out of the market.
Cinnos heard the fwip's of arrows and the scream of Ron and Jay but he didn't care, Cinnos needed to get the hell out off Castle Town since the guards were now alert to his presence "THERE HE IS! SHOOT YOU IDIOTS" Cinnos began to sprint once he heard the captain of the guards screaming behind him. Cinnos ran into a ally and looked for a point of escape "THERE HE IS! HE'S IN THE ALLY!" Cinnos panicked and began to climb the inner wall of Castle town. about halfway up an arrow sunk into the hard stone right next to his right arm. Cinnos then got an idea, pulling the arrow out of the wall and sinking it into the wall again so he had a grip. "Nice shooting pig's!" Cinnos yelled down at them. "ILL SHOW YOU SHOOTING!" the Captain turned to his men and said "Make sure he doesn't his the pavement alive."
Cinnos smirked at this and began to climb the wall again. Once again the guards had fired their arrows and every single one missed their mark. Cinnos grabbed another arrow and began to climb with great speed up the wall. once Cinnos had reached the top he looked down at the guards dumbstruck faces "You know, you really gotta learn Shay, the Hylian military aint all that great!" Cinnos put the arrows in the quiver on his lower back "GODDAMMIT CINNOS! ILL FIND YOU! DON'T THINK I WONT!"
Cinnos snickered and pulled the hood off his head and with his black cloak flowing in the wind he put his arms behind his head and hollered down at Shay " I don't think you wont, I know you wont!" Cinnos then leaped off the wall of the castle and splashed in the moat of the castle town outer wall. Cinnos resurfaced and began to swim to the other side of the moat onto Hyrule Field, he laughed to himself as he heard Shay screaming curse words and other profanities at him, that man was never going to catch him. No matter how hard he would try Cinnos would always get away. Once out of the water Cinnos took his cloak off and put it in his pouch so he could dry it later, as for his other clothes... well he wasn't walking home naked so he'd have to deal.
Cinnos looked up and saw the school of Pehat's flying over and the Tektites jumping across the great plains of the enormous field. Once approaching the forest Cinnos began to relax, The field although beautiful was very dangerous if out there without food or water for a long period of time, it happened to a close friend of his.
No-one really knew his real name but everyone called him Skull Kid because that's what he was, a Skull Kid, a child who had gotten strayed from the path in the Lost Woods. Cinnos somewhat felt bad for him. the child really only had about eight real friends in his lifetime, five that he wouldn't talk about, two fairies that followed him around, and Cinnos himself. But the Skull kid was a bit on the tipsy side, he had even told him once that he help the Hero find the sword of destiny, and Cinnos knew that there was NOTHING in the lost wood's, he had been up and down that place a million times and he had found jack squat. Cinnos began to approach the Ordonian village so he hid himself in the trees. He didn't want to find himself between the sumo guy and that annoying as hell hawk again.
"HEY! Collin, did you get it?" Cinnos jumped when he heard a kid yelling at another and decided to eavesdrop "Y-yea Beth... I got the slingshot. I just don't understand why you needed it?" Cinnos knew the the Hero used to live in the house the children were walking out of, which means the kids were stealing. "Look Collin, more monsters are showing up again and we don't have Link here to protect us anymore. we need more weapons and if it comes down to it we may have to take some more weapons from his house... I don't like it either but this is life or death Collin." Cinnos was surprised to hear that monsters had returned to the Provence, normally the wolves and other predators took care of them. He readied his Bronze shortsword and kept on walking to the Forest Temple.
"Monsters... Hmm... this isn't right... somethings wrong..." he said to himself
after the Hero had dealt with the evil king all the monsters disappeared or hid and things were relatively peaceful, but... if they are attacking then it means that something or someone is helping them and supplying them with weapons and supply's. All alone those monsters are useless. Right before he reached the clearing that was his camp he heard a moan
"Ugggg..." Cinnos'es pointed ears perked up like a rabbit when there is danger, he held his sword with both hands and walked slowly into the clearing
"Hello? Who's there? I don't want any trouble, but this is my Territory!" Cinnos yelled before running out of the bushes and looking around his camp seeing no-one. "Huh?" he dropped his sword on the ground and began to investigate his home "Helloooo? Who's here?" Cinnos walked by his Clothes Hanger, Fire Pit, his green Canvas Tent, and his Jerky Rack where he hung meat to dry and season but found no-one.
"H-...Hel-lp... m-me.." Cinnos heard the voice come from inside, so he picked up his bow by the Tent and readied one of the arrows that the soldiers shot at him before, and although the tip was broken beyond repair the arrow may still knock his opponent unconscious. Cinnos slowly opened the flap to his Tent and looked inside to see a very sickly looking girl, he threw down his bow and picked her head up from the ground "Oh Gods are you alright?"
Midna hazily looked up at Cinnos and smiled "L-Link..?" she immediately fell unconscious leaving a very confused Cinnos behind to ponder just what the hell just happened!
