Chapter 2: The Heart Shattered Link

As dusk was nigh Link, Zelda, and Midna gathered in front of the Mirror of Twilight. As they all stood silent Link was thinking of what his future would hold. He had saved both worlds, with the help of Midna, and was now considered a true hero. Soon, all the children and adults in Hyrule would know his name and remember what he did. He would be a role-model many would look up to and a legend that would be passed down through many generations. Link shook the thought off as Midna began to speak, "Well…I guess this is farewell. As we all know, light and shadow can't mix. Never forget that there is another world bound to this one." with a sense of sorrow in her voice. "Shadow and light are two different sides of the same coin. One cannot exist without the other. I believe the goddesses left the Mirror of Twilight in this world because it was their design that we should meet." said Zelda as her eyes fixed upon the portal the mirror produced. Silence arose as Midna smiled. Link glimpsed at Midna still mesmerized by her true form. She wore a black headdress. Her black cloak escalated in the direction of the wind revealing a bare leg. The sunlight made her light-blue skin and silky orange hair even more noticeable. Her face not only gave her a look of royalty, but also a look of beauty. She turned to the princess, "Zelda…Your words are kind and your heart is pure." With that said she walked in front of the portal and stood about ten feet away. A staircase appeared leading to the entrance of the portal.

"Well…The princess spoke truly. As long as that mirror is standing, we could meet again." Midna looked at Link with a look of sadness and longing. "Link… something glistened in her eye. It rolled halfway down her cheek and left her face, suspended right in front of her. She lifted her hand and gave it a feeble push. "I…" she paused and sighed. "See you later." Her tear floated toward the Mirror of Twilight. The tear landed on the mirror and the pieces Link and Midna had worked so hard the acquire began to crack. Link, finally realizing what Midna had just done, turned around facing her and gasped. Midna quickly ascended the stairs, with grief in each step, to the top. She turned around and smiled at Link with a trace of guilt in her eyes. Link, in shock, could do nothing but watch as Midna's form dissolved into tiny black particles soaring into the portal. When she had completely disappeared, safely to her own realm, the mirror shattered to pieces. Midna was gone.

Link and Zelda stood stunned in the same position as when Midna went through the portal, back to the Twilight Realm. They remained silent looking at the spot where the portal once stood. Zelda gently placed her hand on Link's shoulder, "Link?" The hero looked away, breathing heavily, trying to hold back his tears.
