*This is about a dream I had a while ago. It's kinda weird and if you like new characters then go ahead and read, because there's a new one which is the main character in the fic. Imagine being shut off from the world for a very long time, not seeing anyone but the people you've grown up with. Scary huh? It's more a serious fic that I've written. (The other is Forcing Love:The Gameshow, sorry to publisize this thing, but I want it to be noticed....) Anyway, if you like serious romance with a little *Shrinks finger* humor then read on my homies! (Sorry, that was lame. Also, I wrote this alone, not with anyone else.)
Disclaimer: I don't own Zelda: Ocarina of Time or any other Zelda games. Nintendo does. I, of course, wish I did cause then I'd have soooo much money it isn't funny! OK, basicly I own nothing except this fic, not Zelda, fic, get it? Good!
~~~~~~~~Open to a New Light~~~~~~~~
I wake up to the early light of the Gerudo Valley sun, just barly showing over the horizon. It's another day of fighting stances, arguing with Nabooru, working like a slave in my own home, and wondering.... Who am I you ask? You mean you haven't heard of me? Well I guess that's OK because I haven't been outside Gerudo Valley Gate all my life, well, kinda. Trapped you could say. Why am I trapped? Jeesh you ask a lot of questions, just a sec, I have to get dressed, then I'll be right with you.
First question, I am Rose. Simple name I know, but it suits me just fine thank you very much. My mother gave it to me before she handed me over the the Gerudo's. No, I'm not a Gerudo. I wasn't born here, and don't feel I belong either. I've lived here 16 years, since I was a baby. Second question, the trapped one. I'm one of the most respected Gerudo's here. Nabooru keeps a tight leash on me. Can you believe I haven't seen a man except Ganondorf all my life? It's true. Nabooru said I shouldn't have to worry about men, because they're all worthless. I must stay in my room when Link, Hero of Time comes. I'm not allowed to leave until he does the same. It's terrible. I have been outside the Gerudo Gates before, but the guards caught me and brought me back. I was punished badly then. My mother? She was.....I really don't know. All I know about her is that she wasn't going to take care of me, and was a friend of Nabooru's so....here I am! Uh, I just got called, I have to go on guard duty today. I'll see you later!
*We see Rose leave the Fortress and head towards the desert. She moves swiftly and makes it to the temple no problem. She enters the temple where she has gaurd duty. We close in on Nabooru talking to Rose, just as she enters*
Nabooru: How are you Rose? You guard here today. After noon, you will report the the gate to guard there for the rest of the afternoon, understand?
Rose: Yes Nabooru, I understand.
*Nabooru leaves to go to wherever, and Rose paces back and forth alone*
Oh hello there! Sorry to keep you waiting, I'll be here awhile if you want to talk a little more. I have a plan, do you want in on it? OK, I'm planning on escaping again, only I won't get caught. See, there is a big dinner tonight and everyone is going. I can slip through the shadows of the night and get through the gate. Then I'll be free and might even see a man! A real one, not a green one like Ganondorf. Oh course, they could all look like that.....ewwwww. Anyway, I'd only have till morning the next day to be free. Then I have to return not to be caught. You know I've never understood why Nabooru didn't want me around a man, she is around them all the time and seems fine. It must be something to do with me, and only me. I'm outcasted by the others, since I am not a real Gerudo, flesh and blood. I fight well though, so they look up to me for strength. It would be nice to have a true friend though, not just admirers... Well, I have to get back to work, come visit me later if you want, I have all day.
*We close out for awhile. Rose is standing at the gate in the late afternoon. No guards are around becasue Nabooru trusts her to make good judgements when strangers come near.*
Welcome back to my world. Every time I'm here nobody shows up! I keep hoping Link will show up. He, at least I've heard, is supposed to be a decent looking man, fit for any Gerudo. I suppose I dream to often. I can't help it when my reality sucks. About my plan, it will take action soon, trust me. Ssshhhh, I hear galloping. ..................... It looks like someone riding on a horse of some kind. I can make out a green tunic and hat, that's about it. Wait, It isn't a girl, it's actually a man! Oh praise the goddesses, they have smiled on me today! He looks like a stong man, it must be Link. Such a wonderous creature, not like Ganondorf, who is pure evil. This man has something about him....something good. He is closer now, I have to stop talking.
Rose: Hault! M-may I s-see y-your pass?
Link: Sure, hey you look new, I haven't seen you around here before...
Rose: I-I'm not new h-here. *Regains herself* I've been here a while.
Link: Really? Well, I must just not remember you. Here is my pass.
Rose: I haven't seen you either, you can go now.
*There is a pause and Link enters the gate, Rose almost collapses on herself trying to contain her emotions*
I was so nervous, and it showed. Not a good Gerudo behavier, I have brought shame to my name. Link, he was like nothing else. His eyes were so deep and caring. I could stare at them forever. He looked so strong, but his skin was white, not tanned like mine or anyone else's. He must not be in the sun as long as us. Nabooru will kill me if she finds out I saw him, so this must be kept secret, OK? I wonder if all men are like him. All built well with deep eyes...It can't be, because Ganondorf is built, but his eyes are a terrible redish color, and always look angry. It's almost celebration time, I have to get ready, see you tonight at the gate, Okay?
*Rose walks off shaking. It must be so exciting and scary to see a real man for the first time. We enter a small room where all the Gerudo are dancing and eating, Rose is there, and she is speaking to Nabooru. It is a really lively party, the decorations of bright yellow, red, and orange. It is supposed to resemble fire.*
Nabooru: Are you sure you want to leave already? Can't you stay a little longer?
Rose: I really *Cough* don't feel good your Highness, if it's alright I would just like to go to my room...
Nabooru: *Sigh* You were fine all day, but, get your rest because you'll be needed early tomarrow for duties.
Rose: Thank you your highness.
*Rose walks out of the Fortress supposidly heading to her room. She takes a turn and is in the valley, now colored dark purple and black, for night has fallen.*
You must be quiet now, I have to use my concentration. I'm going to jump the fence. Yes, I know it's like six feet high, that's why I need concentration! *Runs and fails, running into the gate* Owwwww, that pains me so bad! Ok, I'm going to try agian. my determination is great to see the outside world... *Tries and makes it, falling as she lands* I'm not the most elegant Gerudo on her feet..... I have to go, I'm free! Where am I going? I don't know, but it feels so good to be beyond the gate. I suppose I'll go meet some people. Yes I know it's the middle of the night! There still has to be some people, remember, some don't ever sleep, like Link. Nabooru told me he just keeps going and going and going.... Well, I'm off to a new land, or old land, either way. You can come if you want, just don't tell, or there will be trouble for the both of us!
*Rose runs out of the valley, leaving dust behind. This is the end of the first chapter. First, where will she go? Will she meet her soon-to-be friends, or will she find disaster? Will she find men, or dark houses? (It IS night you know!) Next time we'll find out.....*

~~~Hiya, liked it? I want to hear your views on it. Should I write another chapter or not? It gets better as the story goes, I promise. Please check out my other fic, it's more humor. Forcing Love. I want to thank myself on this one, because without me there would be no fic, so thanks! Got any ideas on where she could go and what she could do? (In one night!) Just review, flames are Ok, they warm my feet. Just not really bad ones, and I didn't plagerize, this is my dream. I can't steal dreams can I? OK, I'm done, thank you for reading this!
