Twilight Zombies: Escape From Castle Town
It's only been two short years since the Twilight Incident. Link, the Hero of Light, saved our land from an unspeakable evil, one that doomed the life of the very world we lived in. I, Hyrule's Princess, could do absolutely nothing but stand idly by as Link fought this evil and I hated myself for it. I hated my utter uselessness, and I still could not forgive myself for letting my own country down… until something even more devastating happened...
My country was once again under attack, but it was not by another country nor even a single powerful evil. No… what attacked Hyrule this time was an infection. A dark plague that spread from one man to another. However, instead of making that man violently ill, the infection killed him immediately. While the plague was in fact very serious, the council and I dismissed it as something of a natural disaster. We have beaten famine, droughts, and disease multiple times before, and we felt that if we used the same methods of the past, then we could possibly combat this plague. But we were wrong about this particular one. Normally, humans that die stay dead, but those that were infected rose again.
Zombies… I hate the sound of that word now. Redeads were understandable, they were merely monsters with zombie like characteristics. Redeads were born zombies and when they attacked, they killed a man permanently. Those who infected, however, were not redeads, they were actual zombies, people who were officially deceased yet they still walked. If one of the infected were to attack you, one of two things would happen, you either died, or you became one of them.
I've seen it happen. My mother was bitten when her bodyguard became too negligent and careless. She became very ill, but when our best doctors examined her, they held high hopes.
"She will live," one of the doctors said, "And she will be still fit to rule."
The doctor was half right. She did live, but she damn well wasn't fit to rule. The pupils in her eyes disappeared, her walk became like that of an unbalanced infant, her speech became nothing but unintelligible moans, and her body smelt like that of a rotting corpse. My mother lived to become a zombie. Of course I denied it until the very end, when my own father beheaded her because she came close to infecting me.
Within three weeks, the zombie infection grew out of hand and spread throughout most of the kingdom. Hyrule Castle Town, once a prosperous city filled with laughter and joy, became a breeding ground for those… things. Not even my knights and soldiers could hold them off, for they were often killed an infected themselves. Even Link's whereabouts are unknown, and I fear for the worst.
But I refuse to be useless like I was in the Twilight Incident! I refuse to sit by and watch my country rot! I refuse to die! That's why there are four of us left. We WILL find out what happened, and we WILL find a cure… If only we could get out of this city first…
