Hallway of Green
After listening to music, I put my iPod on the dresser, next to my bed. I face downwards and waited for it. I waited and closed my eyes. I'm restless, I can't sleep. My senses were to hyperaware for me to fall asleep. I want to sleep, but it seems like my body won't comply with my needs. I turn over so I can stare up at the ceiling. The Triforce painting reminds me of home, and two other people. I don't want to think about that right now though. I sit up and stare at the door. Why not? I feel like a prisoner here anyways, and I bet that going back to bed isn't going to help me anymore. I stand up and take a sweater so that way I'll prevent sickness to add to my misery. I open my door and turn towards the direction of the garden. As I walk in the hallway, the green lights come on one by one, sensing movement. It gave the hallway a creepy feeling, I always thought that green was evil…as I look back, the lights I went past turned off. I stare at the light beside me, and regret it. My eyes stung as the light burned its way through it. These were no ordinary lights, I remember that in my palace we had these lights, holy lights. Though, I guess motion sensing holy lights where more modern so of course Hyrule wouldn't have it. I recover from the pain and keep on going. I shrug at the thought. Makes sense.
The door to the garden is infront of me but just when I was about to reach for it, a sense told me to stop. I stop and look back. The lights go out completely. Then I see it, faint green lights coming from the left hallway. I curse in my head. I completely forgot about the Hands coming around at midnight to see if any intruders entered the premises. If they find me, they'll ask me questions and what I want the least is to have to explain to Crazy or Master Hand my dilemma. They'll do anything!...Now that statement can have its ups and downs. For all I know, for dinner, they'll put a drug in my drink and I'll immediately be knocked out. Or even worse, when I'll unconsciously take the drug, somebody will take advantage of it. I shudder at the possibilities. The lights go on. SHOOT! Ok, think Zelda…*light bulb* Why didn't I think of it before? I used Farore's Wind to transport myself close to the door, but outside.
Ok, a bit of a close call. Wait, floating hands can't make footsteps can they…..? I shrug at the thought and continue in the general direction of the garden. As I come closer to it, a gateway comes up. It's like a white archway with vines interweaving and covering over it. I look at the roses that decorate the arch and smile. I always loved blue roses. I gently touched it, and smelled it. Ahh, so pretty and delicate, I laugh at myself and keep on going. And finally, I've reached it.
The garden is like a maze within a maze, with hedges acting as walls and vines falling out from above, it's a truly amazing sight. The hedges itself is as tall as a house, so you can't cheat by looking over it. The reward for reaching the heart of the maze was a beautiful fountain that left me breathless every time I came. Almost nobody ever found the way to the fountain; it seemed to accept me though. Everyone else complained that they never got to see it, and when they come with me, the fountain stops calling me and it seemed to disappear. The maze changes every time someone comes, and the fountain has only ever called to me. I don't know of anybody else who has ever seen the fountain. With a bounce in my step I enter the maze.
