Chapter 2
(A week later…) Link was still at the steps in the courtyard. Zelda walked up to him again and sat besides him. "Link, don't you think that you're taking this too seriously. I mean, so what if our son is gone? I know that we'll eventually get him back. You can't be that depress can you?" "It's not that Zelda, for the first time in my life, I gave up. I gave up a fight with Teamius just because I didn't want to die. I didn't want you to be alone. Alone like that other Zelda in the future." Zelda looked down and said, "Link, you know that you can do whatever you want. You don't have to give up because of our son or me. Was he that strong?" Link sighed, "He's far more greater than I am. I have to work even harder now if I want to get Tarkainius back." Zelda thought for a second and said, "Link, let me go and see Teamius. I want to fight him myself. I want to see how strong he is. Besides, he won't know where I will go if I use my Telenut." Link looked up at Zelda. "Zelda, he's too strong. Besides, do you really want to show him your other identity?" he said. Zelda said, "But everyone knows that I can disguise myself as a Sheikah already. So don't worry about it. I'll come back and tell you how it went. I won't die you know." Link said, "Ok Zelda, but I'm warning you. If you want to fight, then I'm not stopping you in doing that. Just, be careful Zelda. I don't want to loose you." Zelda nodded. She walked out of the Courtyard and went to the barn to get Epona.
"Don't worry Epona, it'll be alright. I'm just going to ride you to the Gerudo Hideout, then you can wonder off again," she said. Epona neighed. Zelda got on and they were off to Gerudo Valley. When she got there, she saw that the bridge was built again. At the bridge, she got off Epona and walked.
"Your highness, what would you be doing around these parts of Hyrule?" asked the Carpenters' Boss. Zelda said, "Goodman, I'm going to the Spirit Temple to meet someone there." The Carpenters' boss nodded. Zelda walked into the Gerudo's Hideout. Ragu saw her and ran up to her. "Zelda, it's a pleasure to see you here again. What is it that you want?" "I'm going to the Spirit Temple Ragu. I'll come back to see you again," said Zelda. "But Zelda, you can't go there, weird things have been happening lately. Ever since Nabooru lefted to check the Temple, she never came back. But if your willing to go, is it ok if you find out what's going on over there? And why Nabooru isn't here yet?" Zelda said, "Don't worry Ragu, I'll come back to tell you." A Gerudo clapped twice and the gate to Desert Colossus opened. Zelda went through. "Be careful on the way your Highness!" Ragu yelled back. Zelda yelled, "I'll keep that in mind!"
It was hard for Zelda to get through. The winds kept pushing her back and the sand got into her clothes. When she finally got to the Spirit Temple, she saw Nabooru at the doors talking to Sheik. Zelda ran up to her. "Nabooru! What are you doing here?" she asked. Nabooru said, "Uh, Zelda, hi. How's it going?" Zelda said, "Nabooru, what are you doing here?" Nabooru was about to say something until Teamius came out. He made a sign for Nabooru to go in. Nabooru frowned and lefted. Sheik backed away and jumped on a rock. "Teamius! I want my son back!" Zelda yelled. Teamius did nothing. Zelda raised one of her hands and shot a light beam at Teamius. Teamius deflected it and grunted. "Hey, why don't you talk? Ever gone to school?" asked Zelda. Teamius set his hands aside. He looked straight into Zelda's eyes. "What are you doing?" Zelda gazed back. She watched Teamius's eyes and realized that they were glowing. She got back into focus and ran. Teamius's eyes shot a laser beam.
"Pretty smart Queen. Tell me, how did you know I was going to hit you?" spoke Teamius. Zelda smirked, "So, you do talk." Teamius grunted, "Ofcourse I talk your highness. Now tell me, how did you know I was going to shoot you?" "Why should you know?" asked Zelda. Teamius changed the subject, "I see you're here to get Tarkainius? Well, that's too bad." Zelda got worried and backed away. "Give me back my son!" she yelled. Teamius laughed, "Where's your courage Zelda? Why do you walk away from me? Are you afraid." Zelda took a few steps forward and raised her hand up. "Give me back my son, or I'll kill you," she said. Teamius laughed again, "If you want to get your son, then go." He walked away from the door. Zelda looked at the door and Teamius. "Huh? You mean that I can go in there right now?" she asked. Teamius pointed to the door. "Ofcourse your highness. I'm not going to stop you." Zelda yelled, "NO! Your planing to do something I just know it! I won't fall for it!" Teamius grinned, "Very smart Zelda, very smart. Now, what are you going to do? Just stand there? I suppose you want to try and fight me am I right?" Zelda said, "If you put it that way, then so be it! I'll fight you!"
Zelda jumped backed and got ready to fight. She stood still and disguised herself as Shannon. Teamius stood still and waited. "Hey! What are you waiting for? Man, you have no senses do you! Fine, I'll make the first move if you're going to do nothing." She threw a nut on the ground and the place flashed white. Shannon ran up to Teamius quietly and punched him. But her attack bounced off him. She fell on the ground and moaned. "Owe! Hey, how did you do that! Hey! Talk you redhead!" Teamius smiled; he raised his hand and shot a red beam. Shannon gasped and jumped out of the way. But while she was landing, she got hit with another red beam. Only the beam cut her thigh. Shannon kneeled on the ground and held her leg. She took out a harp and quickly played the Song of Healing. With just a few notes, her leg healed. Teamius's eyes widened but he stood still. "Impressive Zelda, I see you've learned how to be a Sheikah, Shannon."
She got back to Zelda and ran a distance away from him shooting energy balls at him. The force field around Teamius blocked the energy balls from hitting him. "Your much more willing than Link is Zelda, he gave up to easily," said Teamius. Zelda ignored what he said and kept on shooting. "I think I should try my chances in hitting you," said Teamius. He flew into the air and shot a huge red ball. Zelda gasped and ran. When Teamius shot it, Zelda wasn't able to get out of the way. The ball was too big for Zelda to run away from. So she stood still and blocked. When the ball hit her, she screamed. There was a huge explosion and Zelda was hurt flying in the air. She fell to the ground hard and couldn't move. "Now Zelda, make it easy for yourself and stay still as I kill you," Teamius said calmly. Zelda forced herself to transformed into Shannon. She forced herself to get up and slam a Telenut on the ground. She disappeared leaving Teamius. "I guess that's over for now," he said. Teamius walked back inside the Temple.
At the Gerudo Hideout, Shannon dragged herself to the nearest Gerudo. Ragu was walking around and saw Shannon. She ran up to her and called others to help her. "Shannon, what happened? Are you ok?" asked Ragu. Shannon closed one eye, then the other. She was too weak to talk. So she drifted off to sleep.
When she woke up again, she was in a room at the Gerudo's Hideout. "She's awake Ragu," said a Gerudo. Ragu looked down at her smiling, "So, feeling better Zelda? I think you can get up." Zelda gasped, "Huh? How did I become myself? I thought I was Shannon?" She thought, 'It must've been because I didn't have enough energy to stay as Shannon. I must've ran out of magic!' Zelda nodded as she sat up. "I think I'll be going now that I'm better," she said. Ragu sighed, "Ok, I'll see you around then your highness. So long." Zelda walked out of the Hideout and went up to Epona. Epona neighed as Zelda walked up to her. Zelda got on quickly and went to the Castle.
On her way, some people were looking at her. She took a quick glance at herself seeing that she was dirty all over. Zelda blushed and quickly took Epona to the barn. She ran inside accidentally crashing into Link. "Oh, Link, I'm sorry, I didn't see you coming," said Zelda. Link quickly wiped his tunic. "It's ok Zelda, but what happened?" Zelda and Link walked to the Courtyard. On the way, Zelda was telling Link what happened.
"So you see, I had to be Shannon and use a Telenut to escape," Zelda said quickly. "Well, I guess we have no choice but to get stronger. We have to get our son back!" said Link. The two of them sat down on the steps talking. "Zelda, I think it's time I get back to training," said Link. Zelda said, "Well, how about me? I think I need to do the same thing also. Not only you can do this alone." Link said, "Your right Zelda, but both of us can't leave the castle. One of us has to stay." Zelda said, "Well, we can try switching every day." "Great idea Zelda. I'll go first ok? Then you can leave the castle tomorrow. Maybe is the next 5 years, we'll be ready" said Link. "5 years!" Zelda yelled, "Isn't that a bit too long to do training. I mean, Teamius isn't that strong." "But Zelda, Teamius made us look as if we weren't even trying," said Link, "I think one of us should leave the castle for a year and come back later on." "Link, that's too long!" Zelda protested, "How about just day by day. Or week by week. Things will go out good that way." "Alright Zelda. By tomorrow, I'll set off and come back in a week. Then you'll go," said Link. Zelda agreed, "Fine with me. Now, let's go eat some food. I'm starved." Link smiled nodding and followed her out of the Courtyard.
(Spirit Temple) Teamius walks to his chair with a plate of food. He took his time to eat mannerly until he heard loud crying coming from Tarkainius's room. He grunted and yelled out for a Stalfos to come in. "Sir?" it said. Teamius pointed to Tarkainius's room. "Take care of the baby. I've had enough of it's crying." The Stalfos quietly moaned and walked into the room. When the Stalfos shut the door, Teamius heard even more crying. "Doesn't anyone here know how to take care of a baby!" he yelled. "Maybe I can be of some assistance Teamius." Teamius turned his head and saw Nabooru. "Oh, it's you Nabooru. Go in there and take care of the baby," said Teamius. Nabooru folded her arms while walking into the room. "Ok bonehead, out you go. I'll do this for you," she said. The Stalfos walked out quickly before Teamius could look at him. Teamius could here Nabooru singing Zelda's Lullaby in the room. He got upset and yelled, "Nabooru! You are supposed to work for me! I don't want to hear anything about Zelda or Link while you take care of that kid! He'll get memories of his mother and father." "Awe, chill Teamius, I'm just singing a little tune for him. I want him to drift off to sleep," Nabooru said as she walked out of the room with Tarkainius, "So when will you train the squirt?" Teamius set his food aside and called a Lizafos to take it away. He got up from his chair with his hands folded. When he got up to Nabooru, he took the baby from her and carried it. Tarkainius woke up and started crying. "Ahh! Shut up kid. Shut up!" Teamius yelled. Tarkainius cried even louder. Some Stalfos and Lizafos were watching. Teamius threw Tarkainius in the air into Nabooru's arms. The baby stopped crying once it looked at her. Nabooru sighed, "Teamius, you have to take care of it gently. Can't you see that it's only a baby?" Teamius grunted, "I might as well kill him then. He's not worth anything if he cries like that." Nabooru said, "But I thought that you were going to train him?" Teamius yelled, "What! Train a crybaby!" "Just give him some time Teamius. He'll grow and become mature. Then you'll be able to handle him." Teamius said, "Fine, but you'll be responsible for taking care of him. I'm going outside to work my skills." He turned face the door and walked outside. "Don't worry Tarkainius, you'll grow up to be a handsome man just like your father. Too bad I didn't get married. Oh well," said Nabooru softly.
The next day, Zelda got up early and got dressed. She walked up to her balcony looking down at Hyrule. Some people saw her and waved. She waved back smiling. "What a peaceful land. Though everyone is sad. But I shouldn't worry them. Well, how wouldn't they know that my son was gone if there was a lot of people there?" "Zelda, you doing ok?" Zelda turned around and saw Link. "I'm doing fine Link," said Zelda. Link hugged her as he gave her a little kiss. Zelda smiled. "I have to go now Zelda. I'll be back in a week ok?" said Link. Zelda said, "Alright Link, I'll see you back here in another week?" "Another week Zelda. So long," said Link. He walked outside and jumped on Epona. Zelda watched Link leave from the balcony.
On the way, townspeople waved at Link. He waved back and kept on going. Outside of the Castle walls, Link saw the Running Man running towards him. "Hey your highness, how's everything going?" he said. Link said, "Fine Goodman. Now, if you excuse me, I have to be going to Death Mountain. If you like, you can come with me." The Running Man said, "No thanks your highness, I have to keep on running. It's my daily work. Sometimes, I walk people's dogs and send letters to people's house. I get paid for that." "Well alright, see you then," said Link. He pulled Epona's reigns and went for Kakariko Village.
He jumped off Epona and walked up the steps. At the Village, he saw U.N. and C.N. C.N. ran up to him saying, "Your highness, tell U.N. that you saw Gannondorf's son! He doesn't believe me again!" U.N. had his arms folding and laughing really hard. Link went up to U.N. "U.N. just to let you know, I really hate watching you and your cousin fussing over stuff. Will you just believe him and stop laughing insanely?" U.N. laughed, "Hahahaha! Those are funny looking clothes you're wearing your highness! Hahahaha!" Link looked at his tunic. "What do you mean? I wear these all the time," he said. U.N. kept on laughing. Link walked away quietly. Behind him, he heard U.N. and C.N. were yelling at the top of their lungs. Link ignored them and climbed Death Mountain.
"I wonder where Navi is?" he said to himself. "I'm right here Link!" said Navi. Link looked around and found Navi flying around his head. "Thought that you could leave me behind again could you?" she said. Link smiled, "No Navi, I didn't see you that's why." The both of them went up Death Mountain. It took a lot more quickly to get up there since Link was already experienced.
Days past as Link trained very hard in the volcano without his Fire Resistance Tunic. Navi flew about yelling everytime Link stopped. At the castle, Zelda was always lonely at night in her bed. She would always walk up to her balcony waiting for the day when Link came back. A month later, Navi flew back to Zelda telling her how Link is doing. She started coming over every week to talk to Zelda. "Oh," Zelda said, "I hope he returns soon." She sighed as she watched the sky.
(A week later…) Link was still at the steps in the courtyard. Zelda walked up to him again and sat besides him. "Link, don't you think that you're taking this too seriously. I mean, so what if our son is gone? I know that we'll eventually get him back. You can't be that depress can you?" "It's not that Zelda, for the first time in my life, I gave up.
