As you can probably guess, this is a sort of novelizaton of Twilight Princess, through the eyes of the members of the Resistance. I've added a few of my OC's in here, but I'll try to make sure they aren't annoying. ;) Reviews are appreciated, especially critiquing ones, just don't be too mean on my first fanfic! :)
Prologue
That feeling that you get when you walk around at night.
The shadow beasts stormed into the streets of Castle Town, the villagers cowering in fear. Nobody made any movement of protest, how could they?
Or when you're walking home, and your spine freezes up, so you whip yourself around, expecting someone to be there, only to realize you're alone.
All alone.
Following their leader without question, they swarmed into the castle, right into Her Majesty's throne room. Her sword drops. Out of love for her people, she avoids the war we would surely lose.
Now intensify that feeling to the point of pain.
In the backroom of a bar, a plan is made, an oath. To protect the great country of Hyrule. When darkness filled the town like the tide coming in, those plans were brought to shreds, wiped from all memory.
That's the Twilight.
How long has it been since our town fell? Hours? Years? It's impossible to tell. Mother used to tell me stories of the Twilight. She made it seem like a fairytale, almost dreamlike. Completely different from these nightmares.
Humans like us; we aren't supposed to live in the Twilight. Us? I try once more to look around for any sign of "us". The Resistance, what we called ourselves, vowed to protect Hyrule at any cost. How did we fail?
My hopes were raised for nothing. I'm not able to see any of them. There is nothing in the Twilight. Nothing except Flynn, the one who first brought me to Telma when…. When… my mother… she…
Mama.
A small whimper escaped my throat. Flynn wrapped his arms tighter around my waist, and pulled me close.
"Don't worry Ava, I'll protect you." He said. "Just like always."
"Promise?"
"I promise."
"Forever."
