Chapter 1:

I gaze up at the stars, wondering. I ponder what could be happening, in barely a few rooms away, in the central room, where she sits. The Queen. The one who ended up claiming my heart. But together… it was not destined. I am sitting on the edge of my balcony, poised carefully. Hyrule Castle is where I have set down. The Queen is who I must protect, and as the last remaining alive Royal Champion, I must be near her at most of all times. As I look out and see the Castle Town, everyone most likely fast asleep, I wonder. Maybe things could have been different. Maybe we could have been together if it wasn't for that damn Calamity. And it was my fault… I should have been stronger, trained more, just been… there. Maybe if I had actually opened up to the Queen more, I could have saved her sooner. Could have saved all of them. The elegant Princess of The Water, Mipha. She loved me and paid dearly for it. The Master of the Wind, Rivali. While we never liked each other, his skills were admirable and he was loyal. The Chief of the Magma, Daruk. He was a softie, but extremely good at battle. A good friend and valiant partner. And the Captain of the Desert, Urbosa. One of Z- The queen… the Queen, I can't say that otherwise I'll think about… her. Anyways, one of the King and current Queen's most trusted advisers. A great warrior and strong Leader. Never afraid to speak. I miss them all so much. And… well… I guess I should bring up the King. A great man, who waited patiently for Zelda to the end. Even all the Shekiah that died. I feel sorrow set over me as I look up once again. It's getting late and I have to be up early to accompany the Queen. I walk inside, carefully trying not to walk into anything. I put the Sheikah Slate I was using to study the stars down, and lie down on the bed. I close my eyes and drift off into a peaceful slumber.

The next day, I look at the time as I wake up. 7 in the morning, New Hylian time. I quickly dash out of bed to my wardrobe and pull on my old Champions Tunic and Hylian Trousers. As an afterthought I also put on my Rito Earrings. It'll be a bit chilly where we're going to today. In short, it's going to be me and Zelda heading up to the Spring of Wisdom on Mount Lanayru. I walk over to my faithful old Master Sword. I put it on my back and grab the Hylian Shield as an afterthought. I grab my Royal Bow and my Quiver as well. Ahhh… this reminds me back when I was roaming the land. 75 days in total. It was nice… but also lonely. Hmm… well, I better go meet with Queen Zelda. To me she'll always be Princess, haha... I walk down the stairs to the front courtyard, where she stands waiting. She smiles at me warmly and says,

"Hey, Link. Nice weather we have, right?" I simply nod and the corners of my mouth turn upwards slightly. I reply to her back in sign language, saying,

"Indeed it is, Your Highness." She looks at me, pouting.

"You know I told you to stop it with the Highness stuff! And also, come on Link. No one will be watching! You can speak." I look at her and shrug, then open my mouth and say

"Alright, but don't tell anyone I spoke with you." She smiles and says,

"I'll keep it a secret!" She grabs my hand and as she leads me to the horses, I think in my head 'TELL HER! JUST DO IT! YOUR OBVIOUS!' I contemplate the voice in my head and smile. Maybe later, I think. Suddenly i'm aware of Zelda on her horse yelling

"Race ya to the end of the town!" I look at her and laugh, spurring my horse to go as she takes off. This is pleasant. Maybe when we get to the Old Man's house I'll tell her. For now, I'm content with our friendship.

AN: So.. soo… sooooo…. I deeply apologize for this being a short chapter but i was rushed to release something new. The next chapter of Timeless is in the works and i decided to give yall this.
