A/N: When I say "I'll write a sequel" I really mean it (and you can be sure it's true), just needed to make a plot and think about the details. Once again, this fic was written with the help of the former Zelda Fan456 (he gave me several ideas for the plot, so if you're gonna thank me for this fic, don't forget to thank him), now known as The Prince of Torture. He has a couple of fics about The Legend of Zelda and one of them is actually pretty funny( a lot), with dares and questions. You should look it up if you're a fan of The Legend of Zelda: The Twilight Princess (LoZ:TTP for short) and want to laugh a while. There is yet another one like that fic, but longer (ask me if you're willing to know its name). Well, enough of this, ladies and gentlemen I present you the immediate sequel to "Midna's wedding". May you have a nice reading.
Disclaimer: I don't own LoZ:TTP, I'm just one of the many fans it has (a very crazy one). However, I will own a mint ice cream...soon! .
Right when the wedding party was over, everyone cheered the just married couple. It was a very nice party for the twili (not just because now their princess was married, but also because they won't be putting up with her odd whims anymore), specially for the historians, who besides of dancing, drinking, talking and having fun, were taking notes of this event, since it was the first time such thing took place in the twilight realm.
And as for what concerns to Link and Midna, the new king and queen of the twilight realm, they enjoyed their wedding a lot. Even after everyone else left them alone in the dancing stage, Link and Midna kept dancing slowly, but no music was being played, and no sound was made, actually, the couple was pretty much inside their own little world in that moment.
Midna's head was buried in Link's chest, the only music she was able to hear, was perhaps, the beats of his heart.
So deep was the silence, that Link had no problem at all listening to his wife's breath.
They didn't care for the time in that moment of their lives, but that didn't mean it stopped existing, hence, the time for sleeping eventually came, so did the signs of tiredness.
"Goddesses, I'm the happiest man on any realm" Link thought as he kept dancing with his wife, until he felt Midna was kinda heavier, like if she had passed out and stopped standing on her own.
"Midna?" The blonde asked, gently grabbing her chin and raising it so he could see her face.
"Uhm...I'm sorry, I feel a little bit..." she said, hugging her husband in a rather tighter way " tired, and despite you're not a furry wolf now, you're still kind of a good pillow"
Link chuckled when he heard that compliment "We've been dancing for quite a while, don't you think?"the blonde asked "we should go get some sleep" he added with a smirk on his face.
Midna grinned when she heard that "You're right, tomorrow we can think about our honeymoon, right?" she inquired gazing at his blue eyes.
"Of course" he replied stroking her hair.
Thus, they stopped dancing, and began to head towards the royal chamber. It wasn't a long trip, just a few minutes away from their previous spot.
Once they got in there, both yawned and stretched, and eventually, Link looked around to check out his new room, they very same room he was gonna share with his wife.
Midna caught sight of Link's action, so she asked something.
"So, what you say? nice, huh?" Midna asked.
It was nice, indeed. Several ornaments of incalculable value all over the walls, a green carpet covering some of the floor, a few windows with what seemed to be silver frames, a mirror and a big bed for two, among many other things.
"Yeah"he said "It's actually pretty nice" he added still checking out the room, barely having enough time to process the amount of invaluable things that room had inside.
"Very well then"she stated as she walked towards the bed and then sat on it. She stared at her husband, amused "You're not planning on sleeping on the carpet, are you?" she asked giggling.
"I-I'm not" the blonde stuttered "It's just that I didn't expect this room to be like this. I mean not even Zelda has a room like this one" he added.
"I made a few changes to this room when it became mine" she stated.
"Wait just a second, this chamber wasn't always yours?" the hero inquired.
"Well, it used to be my parent's chamber, then mine when they passed away and now..."she looked at Link with a rather mischievous smile on her face "ours..."
"Errr...right, makes sense" he said.
Midna rolled her eyes before uttering any more words "Of course it makes sense, Mr. Important Hero"she said "Now...I'm quite happy to be married with you already, but I'm pretty sure both of us need to get some sleep, right?" she inquired.
Link yawned "Yes, you're right"he replied.
Midna was now completely over the bed "So...what are you waiting for?" she asked "Come here..." she worded tapping the other side of the bed.
Not expecting anything other than getting a nice sleep, Link walked carelessly towards the bed and rested on it.
Both, Link and Midna had their clothes on, they were just relaxing on the bed, inches away from each other.
A silence imposed its presence, but got cut off when Link talked.
"You know, this bed is actually better than the one of my hou..."but the blonde didn't manage to utter the whole sentence, his wife was staring at him and in less than it takes to blink she wrapped her arms around him.
"I got you!" She yelled wrapping her arms around him.
Link let out a gasp of surprise, not fully understanding what was going on. Last thing he recalled before passing out, was the sound of a shirt getting ripped up and something that struck his head.
The twili historians are not totally sure of what in Din's name happened after the former twilight princess yelled those words, what they do know however, is that whatever happened in the royal chamber of the king and the queen in that moment, would not be revealed, at least for now. Since they're based on Link's words, the further generations of twili historians would know that moment as "the blackout", because the twilight king passed out in that moment and doesn't really recall anything (No, Midna did not agree to narrate that part so the further generations could know what happened). Nonetheless, there is one small clue of what might had happened: the king's tunic was found ripped up next day (but it was fixed later that same day) and a window in the chamber was broken.
Anyways, when the dawn of the next day arrived (well, the time of the dawn, since in the twilight realm it was always twilight), Link woke up and tried to stretch, but when he did, he found out that Midna was cuddling to him.
"So cute..."he mumbled, trying no to wake her up, but to no avail, she was awake as well.
"Uhm, morning Link"she said as she opened her eyes, still cuddling to him.
"Good morning Midna" he worded with a smirk on his face.
Yes, apparently it was gonna be a quiet morning for both of them, no interruptions at all, just them.
However, duty was going to call once again. This time the hero was not going to be requested to save the world, but to mind his new duties, his royal duties to be more accurate.
"Well, we should get off the bed, don't you think?"the blonde proposed, willing to start the day.
Midna grabbed his arm tightly "Ny-ah! Don't wanna, stay a little longer please" she replied closing her eyes not willing to let her husband get away for any reason.
"Fine" he said hugging her.
Both felt comfortable and warm in that moment, but as it often happens between couples, the best thing was, that they were together. Nonetheless, life had other plans. Suddenly the door opened and an old twili, likely a member of the council, stepped in and kneeled before the couple, causing them to turn their attention to him.
"Your Majesties, I'm sorry to interrupt your private time, but your royal presence is requested at the throne room in this moment"he stated.
Link raised an eyebrow while looking at the twili "our presence is requested at the throne room?Why?"
he thought.
Midna, who still haven't released Link from her grip by then, stared at the bowed twili "Whatever the problem might be, can't it wait a little longer?" she inquired purring and rubbing Link's arm with her head, pretty much like a kitten.
"Your Highness, three of your most important citizens in the twilight realm had requested a royal audience, for they're uneasy and might be looking for your wise advice in these odd, yet peaceful, times" the old twili worded "I'm aware of your wedding and your wish to spend some private time, but these people really want your help" he added.
Link glared at the old twili before turning to his wife "I believe we should go check out those citizens"
Midna frowned when she heard that but then she sighed "oh, fine let's go, but once we're done you and me have to talk about something" she stated.
"Of course, once we're done" the blonde stated.
"Your Majesties, do you wish something for breakfast before?"the old twili asked.
"I'll have a toast"Link replied.
The old twili stared at Link bewildered "Your Highness, I don't have the minimal idea of what in the goddesses name is that" he said.
Midna rolled her eyes before uttering some words to enlighten the old twili's ignorance "That''s a food eaten in the light realm, but don't worry, just have a servant to bring us the usual" Midna worded before yawning.
"Yes, right away Your Highness" the old twili said bowing before he left the chamber, shutting the door behind him.
Link stared at the door for a few seconds before turning his attention to Midna "What's the usual?"
the blonde inquired.
"You'll find out later"she said getting off the bed "Now go get dressed, we don't want my people to see how gorgeous you're without a shirt, do we?"she asked giggling as she looked at her husband.
Link looked at himself. He was, indeed, shirtless and almost naked (of course, no intimate parts at sight), which made him ask something. Eventually, he was surprised.
"What in Farore's name happened?" the hero inquired.
"Nobody sleeps with the clothes on, Link" Midna replied bluntly.
"I know, but I'm not used to sleeping almost naked!"the blonde shouted looking at himself in the mirror.
"Well, it's kind of a long story" she said "Yesterday we were tired, yes, but, we could say you fell asleep right away" she added.
"What do you mean by that?" asked Link raising an eyebrow.
"You don't remember what happened, do you?" she inquired.
Link shook his head, still confused by the situation.
"Jeez, you got struck really hard"she said grimacing, her right hand on her head "It's a long story, but I'll tell you later, ok?" she proposed.
By then Link was grabbing his clothes, which somehow ended up on the floor"Fine, but I'm still confused" the hero stated "And where is my shirt?" he added when he realized his shirt was nowhere to be seen.
Midna pulled out Link's shirt from somewhere in the bed"You mean, this?" she asked holding Link's ripped up shirt in her left hand as she played with it.
"My shirt! What happened to it?" the blonde demanded when he caught sight of his shirt.
"You didn't need it last night, so I got rid of it" she replied.
"What? Midna, there was no need to rip it up!" the hero shouted angrily "Was it?"he inquired fearing there was, indeed, a good reason.
Midna smiled devilish, then she replied "Well...originally, there was, but let's drop that affair for now, shall we?. Midna sighed before continuing the conversation "Link, don't worry for your shirt. I'll have my servants to fix it, ok?"she proposed.
"How long is gonna take?" the blonde asked "I didn't bring any other clothes with me!" he stated.
"I don't know, it might take a while" she said "ah, but you're not gonna use those clothes today anyways" Midna added.
"What?"Link inquired.
"Here"she said pulling out some fancy clothes from a chest "those were my father's, but I think they'll suit you for now"she stated.
"You want me to use these?"the blonde asked looking at the clothes he just received from his wife "I don't like these clothes at all, they're way too fancy"he thought.
"Just for now Link, we can get some more clothes later if you want" Midna proposed.
Link put the fancy clothes on, he didn't like them a bit, they were too fancy, even for a king he thought.
He then walked towards the mirror in the chamber and stared at his reflex.
"Woah! I-I..." the blonde began to stutter.
"Impressive, you really look like a king with those on" Midna stated once she caught sigh of Link's reflex.
"I never thought I could look like this" he stated.
Then someone knocked at the door of the room and then a voice was heard from behind it "Your Majesties? I've brought your breakfast, the usual as miss Midna requested"
"Come in" Midna said.
The door opened and a young twili stepped in with a silver tray in his hands, which had something that looked pretty much like bread.
"Your Majesties"the servant said bowing "where should I leave your breakfast?"
"Give it to me" Midna said grabbing the tray "I'll take care of that, thanks for your services" she added.
"Is there something else Your Highness would like to request?"the servant asked.
"No, you're dismissed" Midna replied.
The servant bowed once more and went out of the room,shutting the door behind him.
"Well, I guess you should be hungry by now, aren't you?" she inquired.
"I'm starving, but what's this thing exactly?" the blonde asked as he pointed at the food on the silver tray.
"This is twili bread, it's pretty much like the bread of your realm" she replied.
"And that thing next to it?" the hero asked once more, gesturing at something that looked like butter.
"That's something my people put on the twili bread so it tastes better. Sweet if you ask"Midna said.
"Well, it's food, and that's enough, let's eat, shall we?"
And thus they began to eat the food, eventually Link ate way faster than Midna, since he was used to eating like that.
Not a quarter of hour past before they were done, so they walked towards the throne room and sat on their respective thrones. So far there had been no problems whatsoever, but the problems would start to come later.
"Very well then, the audience has started!" Midna stated in a loud tone, clapping her hands a couple of times.
Link looked at his wife before people started to come seeking advice "Midna, what's an audience, exactly?"he whispered at her ear.
"Oh, right, I didn't told you about this. You'll see Link, ehmm, this is one of the many things I must do every day to keep the realm under control" she said "What I'm mean to do, well, what we're mean to do since you're the king already, is to sit here for a while listening to the requests of the people, then answer them. Some of the twili might come up with questions, others might come looking for advices and another group of twili might come looking for authorization for performing a certain action" she added.
"Ah, I see"the blonde said "crap, I'm actually not pretty good at giving advices" he thought grimacing.
The first twili came walking through the main gate of the palace, and was now heading right to the thrones where Link and Midna were sitting.
"Don't worry, I'll help you with this" she whispered when she caught sight of Link's expression.
The twili finally reached the thrones, and kneeled before Link and Midna before raising his head to address to the twilight king and the twilight queen.
"Your Majesties, I've witnessed your wedding and is my most sincere wish to congratulate both of you for deciding to start a new life together. May the goddesses bless you"the twili citizen said, bowing.
Midna smiled when she heard that "First request I must listen to and it's already nice, awesome" she thought "Thanks my citizen, may the goddesses bless you as well, but I think you didn't came here just to congratulate us, did you? She inquired.
"You're right Your Highness, I didn't come here just for that. I'm here before you to request, some answers" the twili citizen said, without standing up.
"What is your question?" Midna asked.
"Many of the historians are willing to know more about our current king, Your Highness Link, for this is the first time in our history that a light-dweller relates to a twili" the twili citizen said, making a pause and gulping his own spit when he saw Link raising an eyebrow, which caused him to to remain kneeled and with the head very down"Goddesses! No wonder why his foes fear him, even without his sword at hand, he still inspires some fear, even more with the clothes of our former king on" the twili citizen thought before uttering any further words "The request of the historians is to have Your Highness Link to tell us some of his life, so we can clear any doubts we might have and the further generations can know about this great moment of our history" he added, expecting to get scolded for daring to request such thing, for he was used to getting that treat from the royalty since he was a kid. However, he was proven wrong when the king replied to his request.
"Link, what do you say about this?" Midna inquired as she rested one of her hands on a cheek, her head leaning towards Link.
"How could I deny such request? It's completely normal that the twili are willing to know more about me" the hero stated "when does it would be a good time for me to tell the historians about myself?" he added.
The twili citizen couldn't believe what he just heard, he was expecting something like: how dare you to request such thing, you'll be spending a couple of days in the dungeons without any food whatsoever!. Great was his relief when he heard Link's response.
"A-any time you wish,You Highness" he babbled, glad to know the king didn't punish him.
"Very well then, the first meeting is to be hold today, four hours from now" Link stated.
"Yes, Your Highness, it will be done" the hero citizen as he stood up "Until then, Your Majesties" he added before heading towards the exit so he could arrange the preparations for the meeting.
"That one wasn't hard, was it?" Midna inquired.
"Not at all"the blonde said "but I never thought I would be asked to tell a bunch of historians about my life, I never thought I was gonna be this..."he added before pausing.
"Important?"the queen suggested.
"Right" he replied.
"Well, now you are important" she stated "for the twili, for this realm, for the story books, for me..."she added.
"I'm not sure if I can be a good king" Link said as he frowned, Midna staring at him "but I'm pretty sure I'll do everything within my reach to keep you safe from anything"Link added grabbing one of Midna's hands.
Midna smirked once she heard that "the role of the knight in a golden armor suits you quite well, wolfie" she stated "But don't worry for being a good king, I'm quite sure you'll become a great king, with my help of course" she added.
"If you trust in me, that's more than enough"the king said caressing her hand.
Midna smirked when she heard that, and so focused she was on enjoy every second of her time with Link, that she didn't realize another twili was heading towards them to make a request.
"Your Majesties..." the twili said bowing before kneeling "I've come here looking for your wise advice and authorization in these new times".
Midna released her hand from Link's, so she had both of her hands placed on her throne "Stand up and speak" she said looking at the twili before her.
The twili stood up as commanded, before uttering any more words " With the fall of Zant, The Usurper, we're to live peaceful days ahead in our realm but..."he paused before continuing "many of your citizens, including me, are concerned about the final fate of our most powerful relics" the twili added.
Midna thought she knew the answer, but she wanted to be sure"Which relics?" Midna inquired raising an eyebrow.
"Your Highness, I'm, of course, talking about The Fused Shadows" he replied.
"The Fused Shadows were shattered in the light realm" Midna stated.
"So... it's true?"the twili exclaimed with his eyes widened, barely giving any credit to his ears "Your Highness found The Fused Shadows?" he shouted.
Link stared at the glad twili "Tell me, why are you so happy for that?" the king asked, not being so sure of what to expect.
The twili calmed down before replying "Your Majesty Link, I was raised with the education most of the nobles posses in this realm, and despite many of them have not a big devotion for our story, I do"he said "I know a lot about our story, specially when it comes to talk about The Fused Shadows" he added.
"I did find The Fused Shadows, with the help of your king" she said giving her husband a smile "and in case you wonder, yes, I used them as well. But, as I stated before, they were shattered in the light realm while I was on my quest to save this realm and the light realm." she added.
"Your Highness, may I ask how did The Fused Shadows got shattered during your quest?"the twili inquired, eager to listen an answer.
"Ganondorf shattered them, now their remains lie somewhere under the sands of Gerudo desert" Midna replied bluntly.
"Every part got shattered?" the twili asked.
"No, actually just the upper part got shattered, the rest of the parts should be intact I guess. They should be near the shattered remains of the other part"she worded.
"Understood. You'll see, Your Highness, me and some others twili are willing to retrieve those remains and fix them" the twili stated "if, you're willing to allow us" he added.
"You can fix such thing?" Link demanded confused .
"Yes my king, we can fix it in a while, but we need it to do so" the twili replied.
"Why do you wish to retrieve it?" Midna asked.
"My queen, we're not the only ones with the power to fix and use the relic of our ancestors, The Dark Interlopers. If The Fused Shadows ever happen to fall in the wrong hands, well..." the twili said in a grim tone.
"Well, with Zant dead, I don't think there is gonna be some power-hungry bastard anytime soon, this citizen seems to be quite suitable for the task his proposing" Midna thought before uttering any further words "I understand. You and your group have my authorization to retrieve and fix our ancestor's relics, but remember, once you're done you must immediately hand them to me, understood?" Midna said.
"Yes, yes Your Highness!I shall depart right away!" the twili yelled excitedly as he began to head towards the main door of the palace.
"Proceed with extreme caution, remember you cannot expose to the light of that realm without protection" Midna warned.
"I will Your Majesty!" the twili shouted before leaving the palace.
Link looked at his wife " I thought the twili were not able to withstand the light of my realm" he said.
"We can't, unless we use some very powerful magic to protect ourselves" Midna stated.
"You know Midna, I'm not quite sure about this" Link whispered.
"About what, exactly?" Midna asked in a slightly worried tone.
"The Fused Shadows, weren't those an evil power?" the king asked.
"Yes but, Link, the only twili mad enough to try to master the power of The Fused Shadows is Zant, and he's now dead, remember?" the queen said before uttering more words "Besides, the twili who just left the palace is right, The Fused Shadows should not fall in the wrong hands. I'm currently the only twili strong enough to handle their power and...you know...actually they cannot be utterly destroyed by anyone, not even Ganon. Despite they can be shattered so they won't work anymore, they can be fixed as well"Midna stated "I better keep The Fused Shadows for myself, for they would cause way too much harm if they are to be in anyone's else hands. The harm can be even greater if they are to be used by someone with bad intentions" she added.
"But, wouldn't be better to leave them in the desert?" the hero inquired.
"I'm not taking the risk. As long as they remain there, anyone looking for them could find them in a while with no problem, and as I already said, it would be dangerous to let someone else use them. "
"What about you?" Link said with worry.
"Huh, me?" Midna worded raising an eyebrow "What do you mean by that?" she added as she stared at her husband, with a look of confusion on her face.
"When you first used The Fused Shadows, I thought you lost control of them. I was very worried when I found out using them exhausted you, a lot... you almost pass out" Link stated recalling such memory as he lowed his head a bit "A-and...I don't wanna think what could have happened, if you had used The Fused Shadows for longer..." the hero babbled.
"Link..." she said grabbing his arm and clutching to him, her eyes shut "I'm not using them again, not for now, I just wanna keep them under my watch so they don't fall in the wrong hands, besides..." she worded before continuing "I'm stronger than before. I won't be passing out if I ever have the need to use them again" she added.
"Stronger?" the hero inquired.
Midna opened her eyes and looked at Link "Yes, stronger, much stronger" she said "Do you know why?" she asked.
"I don't" the blonde replied.
Midna laughed a little "because now, I'm with you. Just to think about you... makes me feel nothing on any realm can hurt me." she stated "makes me feel I can do anything" she added.
Link place his right hand on one of Midna's cheeks " I would never let anything or anyone hurt you" he stated "that's why I ask you about your decision, are you sure?" he inquired.
Midna slowly stroke his hand with her own before removing it "I am. I hope you trust me" she worded.
"Always"he said before giving her a peck, which caused her to blush a little.
A guard approached tot he royal couple and bowed before them, thus, getting their attention.
"Speak"Midna said.
"Your Highness, there is yet another citizen looking for your wisdom in order to enlighten your people's doubts"the guard declared.
"Let him come" the queen stated.
So, another twili stepped in the palace, heading for the thrones. He seemed to be a noble twili, yet somehow different from the standards for nobles. He finally reached the thrones, and kneeled before Link and Midna, just like the rest of the citizen who came before.
Well, I guess I should end this chapter here (this is a two-shot and I guess a chapter shouldn't be too long if the fic is a two-shot).
