AN: This is the sequel to another story of mine called "Independence," Though it doesn't necessarily have to be read that way. Things would make more sense if you read it, though. If you have read it, then please remember that this DOES NOT follow the storyline of Majora's Mask. This story is set in a parallel dimension- NOT the game itself. Also, Please feel free to give me constructive criticism; "Constructive" meaning don't flame while you tell me what's wrong with it, just tell me what you believe needs fixing.
Disclaimer: I do not own anything in this story accept for my character Betsy. I did not create Legend of Zelda or anything in it.
Now that that's out of the way... Enjoy :)
When Betsy was little, she would often wonder about what kind of person she would fall in love with one day. She imagined him to be tall and handsome, of course. And he can't be all clingy and treat me like I'm totally helpless.
Above all, though, she thought, He has to be normal! There was no way she would fall for someone strange like her sister had…
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Betsy looked out at the ocean. The powerful surf, the way the water expanded forever, the creatures that could hide, unseen- it sent shivers down her spine. She wondered how it was so easy for Kandace to go into it.
Probably because of Japas, She realized. He would never let anything happen to her. Even though she liked Japas a lot, she still thought it was strange that Kandace would like him THAT way. They were even married now- and she had heard rumors of a child on the way… She shuddered and tried not to think of the details.
Then again, Kandace always said my fear of Zoras was weird- maybe she's right.
Even after they had helped Kandace rescue her from pirates 7 years ago, though she was overwhelmingly grateful, her fear of zoras remained intact. She would no longer flee in fear of Zoras, but she could not bear for one to touch her.
So why did that idiot insist on touching her all the time?
And speak of the devil… here he comes! She turned and attempted to make a getaway but it was too late.
"Betsy!" Her self-proclaimed best friend flung his arms around her. She shivered at his touch- the cool silkiness of his skin always seemed to penetrate her clothes and leave her with a strange feeling.
"Lee, let me go!" Leoni, or Lee as he preferred to be called, released her, grinning madly. Betsy swayed dizzily.
He looked at her strangely, "What's wrong with you?"
"Lee, I told you- stop touching me!"
He rolled his eyes, "Are you doing your 'fear of zoras' nonsense again?"
"Again? It never stopped!"
"Well, that's why I'm here; to cure you!" He grinned again. She tried not to notice; looking at his fangs made her feel feverish.
"I don't need curing!" She argued.
"Sure ya don't…" He said sarcastically, putting a hand on her shoulder to steady her. He looked her up and down. Her long brown hair was in ringlets. Instead of her usual school uniform, she was wearing a spaghetti strap top under a pink, see-through shirt, and denim Capri, "Hey, you look nice today,"
"Thanks," She replied, "Listen, I've got somewhere important to go today so you can't follow me!" She turned and started to walk away.
"Really? Where do you have to go?" He asked following her anyway, "Is it in clock town somewhere? Because there's no way I could let you travel there on your own. I have to protect you!"
Betsy stopped in her tracks and looked at him, offended, "Ugh! Lee, you don't get it at all!" She shoved him to the ground and ran. He frowned at her retreating back. Then smiled again and headed in the same direction.
