The Nightmare

Link's POV:

We were sitting in the Sealed Temple. Me and Zelda. We had chosen to stay and live down here below the clouds, but we forgot that we had no house or dorms to stay in like up in Skyloft. They would have to stay in the temple until we could build a suitable house. I looked over at her.

'She is so beautiful.' I thought. 'I wonder...' I leaned over, grabbed her face, and gave her a kiss, full on the lips. She looked surprised at first, then angry, I thought she was going to hit me. And then she got a happy look on her face. I pulled away. She looked at me for a few seconds, then got up and walked to the door. Before going outside, she looked back at me, her face held no emotion. I sat there wondering, 'Did I do something wrong? I know I did it without her permission and she was angry, but then she became happy.' "Hmm." I mumbled.

I got up to follow her. I went out the door and looked around the area to find her. When I didn't see her, I decided to go get her, wherever she was. I walked around to the other side of the Goddess statue and found her on the ground crying. "What's wrong Zelda? Was it the kiss?"

She nodded. "But not in the way you think. I really liked it and have been trying to work up the courage to ask you to do that since... well... before the morning of the Wing Ceremony. But... it was how it made me feel. I wasn't ready for that. I..." she started sobbing again

"Shhhhh..." I said sitting down next to her with my arm around her shoulders. "It's okay. Ya know?" She looked up at me. "Personally, I don't think I was ready for that either. I just had a sudden urge to kiss you. Your beauty was too overwhelming for me," I said jokingly. She punched my lightly. I yelled loudly in 'extreme' pain. This got me another punch, this time harder. I fell backward laughing and saw she was laughing too.

She leapt on top of me and stared at me for a while, then she lightly slapped my face. I grabbed her hand and rolled her over so that I was on top of her. She blushed. I think I did too when I realized what it looked like we were doing. I slowly started to get off of her, but she grabbed my shoulder and pulled me back down giving me a long kiss. I was so happy.

She eventually let me get up but i just lay down on the ground next to her. We looked up at the sky. I wondered how it possible for the sky to be blue and bright with the sun's light underneath the cover of clouds. I don't remember when I fell asleep, but when I woke up, It was dark out. "Zelda?" I called out.

"Hmm?" came a voice to my right. She turned to look at me with half closed eyes full of surprise and questioning. Oops, I had woken her up. "What is it Link?"

"Nothing Zelda. Go back to sleep."

"Okay," she said. She pushed into my side. I put an arm around her to keep her warm. i fell asleep again. This time I had a strange dream. A nightmare really. It was about Zelda. She was screaming my name and asking for help. She was dangling off the side of a cliff. I tried to got to her so I could help her up, but found I was tied to a tree. I watched helplessly as Zelda lost her grip in one hand and finally fell, screaming. I screamed her name over and over again. A figure appeared in front of me shrouded in a cloak. He looked at my. Of his face, all I could make out was his smile. He was smiling at me. But the smile was not kind like Zelda's or Headmaster Gaepora's. No, this smile was full of malicious intent. He took out a knife and held it to my throat. Any last words? Hero of the Skies." He spat the name out. I said nothing. "Okay then." I felt sharp pain in my neck. Then all went black.
