The new and improved chapter 2 of Princess Who! Hehe, that rhymed... Please review and tell me what you think! Oh, and italics are thoughts. Oh, and as I said before, this would probably take place in the Twilight Princess realm, but will feature characters from different realms and also places that don't exist in any realms. So in a way, it's also like an AU.

Over the next week, Zelda prepared for her much needed time off. With Impa's help, she packed the essentials, and altered her appearance. Now, she had long, straight jet black hair and dark brown eyes. She packed simple dresses, skirts, and tops; things she wasn't used to wearing, along with her black cloak. Its many pockets hidden inside proved useful.

With each passing day, Zelda grew more and more excited. It had been decided that she didn't need an escort, as she was already twenty-one years old and could take care of herself.

When the day of her departure finally arrived, Zelda hugged her parents and Impa goodbye, and recieved a big wallet full of money and a dagger encrusted with jewwls for extra protection, as she had her magic as well. She had also been introduced to Dusk, a black stallion. Luckily, she still remembered how to ride a horse, despite not taking lessons for a few years. Maids strapped her luggage to Dusk while she looked back at Impa and her parents, waving them a last goodbye.

Zelda's POV

I make my way through castle town to the South gate, and not one person recognized me. I cautiously walk down the street, getting shouldered by many people in the process as they hurriedly make their way to their destination. In the distance, I see the southern gate leading to Hyrule Field. My eyes widen in anticipation and I quicken my pace. Before I can make it, I'm shoved again, and topple over and fall on the cold cobblestone. Thinking the man who shoved me is going to apologize and lend a hand to help me up, I lay on the ground. I was wrong.

"Hey, watch where you're goin', lady!" the man huffs, then walked away.

Appalled, I get up myself, brushing off the dust on my skirt. Well, that was rude. He could've been a gentleman and help me up. I grab Dusk's reins and slowly lead her to the gate.

I raise a shaky hand to place on the handle, then pull it away. I could still go back, it's not too late. Am I even ready for this? I hardly know anything about the outside world... I quickly dismiss the thoughts and reassure myself. No. I'm not turning back now. I've finally convinced my parents to let me is it, the moment I've been waiting for my whole life. The freedom I've wished for is finally coming true. Taking a deep breath, I firmly grasp the handle and push open the large door with all my might.

Grinning widely, I walk out into Hyrule Field, instantly feeling the warmth of the sunshine on my face. Kicking off my shoes, I run around and laugh with glee. The fresh air feels so nice, and the cool grass feels a million times better than the cold stone at the mansion.

I could stay like this forever.

Once my shoes are back on, I run up to Dusk, hoisting myself onto her back, taking out a map.

"Hmmm... Where should I go first? Maybe Zora's Domain... I haven't seen Ralis and Ruto in a few years. Or maybe Death Mountain? I haven't visited the Goron Tribe in a while either... Ugh, so many places to go!" I muttered to myself. "Oh well, I'll just go where the wind takes me! I've got months to visit everywhere! Come on, Dusk! Let's go!"

Neighing happily, Dusk starts to gallop away from Castle Town.

A few hours later, as the sun was setting, I come across an old inn near what looks like Death Mountain. Looks like I'll have to stay here for the night. I place Dusk in the small stable to the side of the inn and walk in. At the front desk is a middle-aged man munching on a sandwich.

"Hello, I'd like to stay in a room for the night," I smile politely, not liking the looks the man is giving me.

"Sure, that'll be 150 rupees," he runs a hand through his greasy hair, looking at me with beady eyes. I slide the money towards him, and he hands me the key, giving me a wink in the process. Pretending not to see, I grab my belongings and hastily made my way upstairs.

"Let's see... Five, six, seven... Ah! Eight! I entered a decent sized room and take a look around. Not bad... It'll do for today. With that, I get ready for bed.

I have a long day tomorrow.

The next morning, I wake up early so I could give back the key and avoid the sketchy man at the front desk. However, when I go downstairs, he is already there, eating bread. Frowning, I slowly go up to him and set down the key on the counter.

"Aw, leaving already? Well, come back soon..." he says with a mouth full of bread, wiggling his eyebrows. Ignoring the comment, I step out into the fresh morning air, then shudder with fear. I'm never going back there again. Throwing on my cloak, I mount Dusk, ready to get going.

I ride through Hyrule Field for many hours, taking in the view of the mountains and the rolling plains. Everything is serene and peaceful, when suddenly, a fire arrow seems to fly out of nowhere, narrowly missing me and Dusk. Then another, another, and another. Panicking, I make Dusk go a little faster. What's happening? Who's attacking me? All of a sudden, a swarm of Bokoblins come rushing at me. Some on wild boars, others on foot. They're holding clubs and bows. Out in the distance, I catch a glimpse of more of them, perched on cliffs, holding bows and shooting at me with fire arrows. Dusk is at her limit. She can't go any faster, and the Bokoblins are starting to catch up to us. I attempt to shake them off by making sharp turns, but to no avail. They are hot on my trail, showing no signs of slowing down any time soon.

Coming across a thick forest, I thought I could lose them in there. I ride down long, twisting paths, and when I look behind me again, they are gone. I slow to a halt and closed my eyes, sighing with relief. When I open my eyes again, my eyes widen. They're in front of me, blocking the path. My breath hitches, and I turned around to try and escape the other way. I soon realize that they are blocking the other way, as well. Soon, they're surrounding me on all sides, gradually closing in on me.

Before they can come any closer, I get off Dusk and attempt to use my magic on them. However, I keep messing up the spells due to fright, and give up. Taking out the emergency dagger instead, I stab the one nearest to me in the gut, killing it. I barely manage to pull it out before I'm clubbed in the head by a Bokoblin that had snuck up behind me. I fall to the ground, feeling a sharp pain in my ankle. My vision soon becomes blurry with each passing second. I'm going die out here. I should've been more careful. Tears well up in my eyes. To my parents and Impa, I love you so much. I hope that you won't think it was all your fault. It was mine. I wanted so badly to leave. I thought I was old and mature enough when I didn't even know much about the outside world. I foolishly thought my magic and the dagger were enough to protect me, and now I'm paying the price for it. I should've never gone on this trip. Before I pass out, I see a blur of green and brown, along with some sort of battle cry, then everything goes black.

Goodbye.

Sooooo wat'd ya think? Hope you all liked it! I was so unhappy with the original chapter I wrote, I just had to rewrite it! I see Zelda's having some trouble adjusting to the world, where there are people who are insanely rude and people who are perverts. I hate being shouldered by people, though. There's a whole entire sidewalk, and you have to walk into me? Once, this random guy bumped into me and I fell onto the sidewalk. He didn't say a simple sorry, or even look back. Till chapter 3, which will hopefully come very soon! So sorry for the long hiatus! I'm going on a school trip for the next 2 days, so I won't be able to update then. Well, see you later!
