"-And so, all shall be as it was." A great cheer went up in the crowd, and the festivities started. I sighed as I watched the people from my terrace. The view was beautiful. I looked to Link, who was standing beside me, still tired from before. "You know, I've never been more than just average, but now, I truly feel… Special." Link looked to me,
"You are special. I mean, you're a princess right?" Just then, a man with purple hair and a purple cape appeared, well, that was all I could gather about his appearance, as he immediately picked me up, and swung over his shoulder. I called out to Link but the man had pushed him on the ground, and the ocarina shattered. We started spinning, and suddenly, I was in a dungeon, and he was carrying me past many cells with skeletons in them. Holy crap, I've been kidnapped!
I decided then, that I was not going to be a helpless little girl, and wait to be saved. I looked around for something to use, and noticed a sword hilt sticking out of his belt, I got an idea. I slowly pulled it out of its sheath, aimed it, and stabbed the back of his leg. My god, can that guy scream. He dropped me and I took off running. I heard him scream, "YOU LITTLE BITCH" and I knew he was after me, so I bolted up the nearest flight of stairs and found myself in a forest. I could hear music in the distance, so I ran towards it in hopes of sanctuary (tripping over my dress a fair amount of times in the process). I finally came across a cottage with an old man sitting on the porch strumming a banjo. "Ey! Aren' chu that princess?" I ran onto the porch, and I managed to gasp out,
"Yes, I am, can I hide in your house? I'm kinda being chased by some evil dude."
"Sure, c'mere then." He led me inside. It was a simple cottage, with a chair, a bed, and a bookcase as the only furniture. He lifted up the rug, and opened the cellar door that was under it. "All righ', get in there then." As I was climbing down the ladder, I heard the door close and the rug slide over it. I started to think it might not have been such a good idea to just walk into a cellar in some old guy's house, but then thought of what might have happened with the other guy, and the doubt vanished. I couldn't see a thing in the darkness, so I curled up under the ladder. Next thing I knew, I heard the man with the purple hair barge in, I was surprised that he could go that fast considering I had stabbed his leg.
Did he heal himself or something?
"Alright old man, where is she! Where are you hiding her! She will pay that BITCH!" I heard something break. He was not happy with my escape, and was most definitely not coping well, and I was scared for my life, as I sat there, praying he wouldn't find me. I then heard the old man say,
"Now Sheldon, -"He was cut of by the man yelling,
"I TOLD YOU, I'M VAATI NOW" Something else broke, and at this point, I almost gave myself away, (Sheldon, hahaha)
"Alrighty then, Vaati… and I'm pretty sure whoever yer lookin' for ain't here." I somehow knew that 'Vaati' just did a facepalm.
"Ugh." I heard him leave. After a minute, the cellar door opened, and the old man's voice called,
"He's gone." I climbed out of the cellar.
"Well thank you for your kindness, I'll be going now, what direction is the-" I cut myself of as I noticed a figure at the door suddenly there was a bewildered figure at the door. "Link!" I ran over and hugged him.
"Zelda? How'd you escape?" I looked into his eyes, and smiled,
"I'll explain on the way back to the castle."
"Sheldon? Really?" It took a while for Link to stop laughing, but really, who could blame him, (SHELDON HAHAHAHAHAHA). Once we got back to the castle, we made our way in to the living room type place as I finished my story. "So you actually just stabbed the back of his leg like that?" He seemed impressed by my heroics, I blushed,
"Well, you know, what else was I to do? I wasn't gonna make you save me… again."
He laughed, "Thanks for thinking of me in your moment of need."
I yawned; I was feeling quite tired after all that had happened that day, it was already like 8. "I think I'm going to hit the hay, you?"
Link seemed a bit uncomfortable, "Umm, d'you mind if I stay here a while? Cause, my house is sorta burnt and… ya." I was surprised, but you know, I wasn't going to leave him on the streets, he was 14!
"Of course! I mean, after all you've done for me, how can I say no!" Link let out a sigh of relief, and smiled,
"Thanks Zelda."
I got the maids, (I was so excited by the fact I had maids!) to set up a room for Link across the hall from mine, it was a smallish room, and the walls were blue, but the bed was comfy, and it had a dresser with a mirror on top. "Wow, thanks, I really do appreciate this. Well, night Zelda!" He said, as he set his few belongings on the dresser.
"Good night!" and I walked into my room. I found a lantern on the shelf by my door and lit it. It was really bright, and it lit up the whole room. I set it back on the shelf, and strode over to my dresser. I looked in the bottom drawer and found a full length purple nightgown, well; I figured it was one, because I found it in a drawer. So I put it on, and I swear, it was made of the softest material EVER. I decided to explore my room a little bit. I walked over to the vanity in the corner of my room and sat down at it. There was a very ornate mirror perched on the desk; it had a beautiful gold frame embellished with many purple gems. On the desk, was a really cool arrangement of jewellery and hair products. I picked up a nice pair of dangly earrings, and tried them on. They were simple gold triangles, with a purple gem in the middle. I made a mental note to wear them the next day, and put them back on the desk. All the bottles were different shapes and colours, but two stood out the most. The two were the biggest and labelled shampoo and conditioner. I guess I have to stay clean somehow.The rest was just perfume, so I let them be. I went to take a closer look at my bed, to find it was adorned with various fancily embroidered pillows on the silken purple sheets, and even the bed posts were intricately carved. I lay on the bed, to find it was the softest mattress I had ever been on. I peeked under the sheets, to find it was simply wool contained in my sheets. I sat back on the bed and looked around once more. I spotted a door at the corner of the room. I opened it, and inside was a bathroom. There was no tap over the tub, but instead it said 'Request a Bath'. So I stepped back, and said,
"Um, bath?" It started to fill with warm water; OMG magic bathtub. I ran out to grab the shampoo and conditioner, and when I got back, I saw that the bath was filled, and a towel had appeared folded on the toilet seat. I undressed and stepped into the bathtub, and the temperature was perfect. When I had finished washing, and I finally sank into my bed, I blew out the lantern and lie there in the darkness, and was almost instantly asleep.
