A/N: Well here is a short Oneshot to start with. I don't want to go into writing multi-chapter fanfics too soon, I'm just being cautious.

Midna's Farewell
It was painful.
The journey had been a long one and now it was time to say good-bye. I could hardly believe it, I thought our quest wouldn't ever end. It began as a tedious task and I treated Link like a servent rather than a hero. I have to admit I was a pain to deal with at the beginning. However looking at myself now as I stand in front of Link and Zelda, I could feel I've changed. Yes, I've grown as person.
I was selfish, rude, bossy, and impatient. Yet, Link didn't argue much and he put up with me. He showed me what it felt like to care and worry for others. He showed me how to adjust to the light of this world and it's people. Most of all he gave me his friendship and companionship during this journey. For that I was forever grateful to him and Princess Zelda, who at one point gave me her strength. I looked at the hero and princess and smiled sadly. "Well...I suppose this is farewell, Huh" I stated. Pausing for a second I continued, "Light and shadow can't mix, as we all know." I caught my breath trying to will back the tears that I knew would fall. "But.." I managed to breath out. "Never forget that there's another world bound to this one." I finished. Zelda looked at me with wise blue eyes and in a gentle tone she replied, "Shadow and light are two sides of the same coin.."
There aren't words that could possibly describe the sorrow I felt. She was right and I hated the fact that, even though Zelda was right we would never ever meet again. I would never be in Link's shadow ever again! I also hated the fact that the Hero of Twilight had my heart fluttering with butterflies. I hated it! These feelings I had for Link would never be. I was struggling with my choice to break the Mirror of Twilight as Zelda went on with her lecture. I wondered if I had taken the right path. However even if I was doubting, I knew this is how things should be. I couldn't be selfish and leave my people without a ruler just because I fell in love with a human. Not to mention how dangerous the mirror was.
As Zelda and I exchanged final glances, the wind blew carrying with it the heavy emotions of this moment. I stared a Link for the last time memorizing every detail of his face. His dirty blonde hair, his feral blue eyes, his gentle smile, and fair skin. My heart throbbed. I had to do it! There's no going back now!
"The Princess spoke truly. As long as that mirror's around we could meet again." I could have sworn I saw Link flinch slightly at my words. I smiled at him as I gathered all of my courage and let one tear fall.."Link..." I breathed as that one tear hovered toward the mirror. "I..." I almost gave away my feelings. Almost. Pausing, I used the phrase he knew so well.
"See you later..."
The tear came in contact with the mirror and it began to shatter. Link gasped and looked shocked, first at the mirror then at me as I climbed the transperent steps. I could see the pain in his beautiful blue eyes as I desintegrated into particles. His eyes were wide his mouth agape as I vanished. I closed my eyes and opened them one second later.
I was back home. I could only guess that the mirror must have shattered because I could no longer see the portal. Then the impact of my actions came full force and my heart ached.
I dropped to my knees and wailed in raw sadness.
It was over.
A/N: That was really sad to write. Midna is my favorite character in the game and I almost cried ;A; Anyways, I'll see you all later!
