I know this is quite short, sorry :)


Dreamer

Link closed the door behind him, tightly gripping his sword, even more perplexed that he had been a few minutes ago.

There was nothing in this room.

He took a step forward, the echo of his footstep thundering through his head as his boot hit solid ground under shallow water.

What was this? A mirror room?

He looked ahead of him, the one other thing in the room looking incredibly out of place. A tree. Link frowned, taking another step forward, listening for anything. But it was silent, and that scared him more than any monster ever could. He swallowed, letting out a small sigh and scraping several blonde locks of hair back from his face.

"Link." Whispered Navi, peering out from under his hat, her feathery wings tickling his forehead.

"What?" He said quietly, the strange danger in the room seeming to close in on them at every second.

"I don't like it." Link sighed, rolling his eyes and walking over to the tree, trailing the tip of his sword through the clear water beneath him.

"Yeah, me neither. There has to be something in here..." He reached the tree, slowly raising his right hand to trace it with his finger tips, nothing. Link sighed again, glancing back at the door they had come in through.

"Lets go back." He said quietly. He turned back from the tree, walking slowly back through the water, about to replace his sword. "I hate this place-" Link yelped, a sudden force colliding into his side, and sending him crashing to the ground. He gasped in shock, searching frantically through the water to grab his sword, and staggering to his feet, coming face to face with a shadowed man. He didn't think twice, and lunged forward, the man instantly dodging, a trick that seemed all too familiar to him.

"Ganon's work." Muttered Navi beneath his hat. Link lunged forward again, but the man's blood red eyes followed every move, and he leap out of the way like he knew it was coming before it happened. Link let out an angry grunt, lunging again. Was he really that obvious? He span sharply, his sword cutting through the air like a knife, meeting nothing. He scanned the room, seeing the man standing several meters away. How? Link sprinted towards him, stabbing the air when he suddenly disappeared. He glared ahead of him, the man appearing by the tree, leaning against it, a large smirk on his shadowed face.

"Don't use the sword Link." Link gave an approving nod at Navi's voice, placing his sword in it's sheath with a deafening scrape. He staggered slightly as he pulled out a deathly hammer. The shadow instantly stepped away from the tree, jumping to his feet and grabbing his own sword. Link took a deep breath, running towards him. The shadow did the same. Heavy steel hit the strange, shadowy metal, and Link swung again, this time hitting him. The shadow cried out in pain, falling to the floor, and rolling sideways to doge the next slam from Link's hammer.

'That's it Link, keep it up!!" Link slammed his hammer into the shadow again, the shadow's sword creating a deep wound in his side as he did so. A few more hits, and the shadow fell to the floor, and didn't get back up.

'Come on Link.' Whispered Navi. 'Let's go.'

Link suddenly awoke from his dream. Lying silently in one of the rooms at the windmill inn. He subconsciously ran his hand over the long scar down his side, turning his head sideways. He wasn't there. Link blinked at the empty bed opposite. He sat up quickly, frowning. Meeting the shadow again hadn't been a dream, had it?

--

He let out a small breath. The cold air around him sending shivers down his spine, and making his black hair move ever so slightly. He trailed his eyes over the sleeping village, the deep void of the well directly below him. The presence of the ghosts meters away in the graveyard. He heard the door of the windmill open behind him, soft footsteps walking a couple of steps on the cold, grassy ground. Before stopping. He didn't look up, he just waited for him to speak.

"Are you going to come in or not?" Yes. He knew it was him.

"In a minute." He heard Link sigh.

"Whatever." He said, turning around and walking back inside.

He sighed, wrapping his arms around himself as he walked down the cold stony steps which led down from the Windmill Inn. He couldn't sleep. Not until he contacted him. But where to find him? He scanned his eyes around the eerily quite village as he walked. He heard an owl in the distance, a chicken and perhaps a wolf. He'd never seen a wolf, but Link reminded him of one. He had those all knowing eyes. But thoughts off Link, he had to try and find him. To bring him back. He had loved him, and now he didn't know where he was. But handsome Narinu had to be somewhere. Ganondorf's son.
