Day III: PirateHeroShipping (Tetra x Link)
Link: So I just say what's on this paper?
Me: Yep, easy as defeating Ganon.
Link: Alright *takes a deep breath* RedAbsol-
Tetra: This landlubber doesn't own The Legend of Me. Though of course she could become a pirate and steal it, but she's a coward and too scared to do so.
Link: Tetra, you took my- *gets attacked by a very angry pirate*
Me: *sweatdrops* Please read and enjoy!
A cool wind blows across the bow of Hyrule's Revenge, contrasting heavily with the salty sea breeze coming in with it and small snowflakes drift down to cover the deck with a light dusting of white. The ship is silent, an odd occurrence on the well-known pirate ship, because most of the crew had disembarked to celebrate on Windfall Island.
As Tetra- the captain of the vessel- stands with her back to the island and faces the open sea, pieces of a melody drift to her, floating in the wind.
"The ocean calls to me,"
"Singing its sweet melody,"
"The tune something from my memories."
The blonde-haired pirate allows herself a small smile as she recognizes the song, a common lullaby for children living on the Great Sea.
"A whisper soft sea breeze,"
"A wind in the tall reaching trees,"
"Simply memories calling to me across the waves of time."
"A memory of a dream,"
"The long lost pictures of my past,"
"All come rushing back in the sea's dark embrace."
"I didn't know that you enjoyed singing," Tetra remarks, smirking as she comes to a halt behind the Hero of The Winds.
"Tetra!" Link gasps, spinning to face her in shock. "Y-you heard that?"
"Yep," she replies, winking at him. "But, I have a different song for you to sing." She clears her throat before singing a slightly more merry song.
"The Great Sea has frozen over,"
"Leaving me stranded, searching for sufficient cover."
"Christmas alone on the beach,"
"Doesn't compare to the holidays when you're in reach."
Link watches in amazement as the hardened pirate captain's rough exterior melts away, revealing the young lady hidden within and starts to add his voice to her's.
"All three-hundred sixty five days of the year,"
"All fifty two weeks and all twelve months."
"None of them are as sweet as that one simple day,"
"Twenty-four hours of the greatest time."
As they sing, Link takes Tetra's hands in his and they start to dance, still singing the melody.
Link: "Did you miss me?"
Tetra: "Did you stop to think of the pain?"
Link: "Am I missing you as much as you're missing me?"
Tetra: "Am I dreaming, 'cause I'm seeing you right here, right now."
Link: "I've finally tracked you down."
Tetra: "I'm coming home, I'm coming home for Christmas."
The song draws to a close and the two teens realize just how close they are to each other in the blinding snow, Link standing so that the majority of the snow is kept off of Tetra.
"Thank you," he whispers softly, causing the pirate to look up at him with confusion in her eyes.
"For what?"
"For helping me save the world, I couldn't of done that without your help, Tetra." The two lean in closer and…. ya know what? I can't believe this, Tetra just hit Link square in the face with a snowball!
"Oh, you'll pay for that," Link calls, scooping up his own handful of snow and flinging it at her.
"You're on," Tetra snips back, smirking as a fight commences.
A/N: wow, this chapter is super late, bad llama! I bet you were expecting a kiss, huh? Well, psych! Have a super random snowball fight to kick off the holiday season instead! I own the two songs sang in this chapter, sorry for not mentioning that above. See you next chapter!
