Link's POV
"I love you"...
She loves me. I still cant get that feeling out of my head. Here I am, in my dreams, and I still think about her. She probably is doing the same thing though. In a sense, I kinda figured that she had feelings for me this whole time. Shortly after Zelda used her physical being to restore Midna to life, she has had a certain change of heart ever since then. Of course she was still sadistic, but...she shew kindness...a kindness that I didn't think even existed until she came along. And THAT was weird.
My memory flashed, and next thing, I was in wolf form again, replaying that fateful scene, in Zelda's tower.
"I have one last request...," Midna breathed to Zelda, dying."Can you tell him...where to find the Mirror of Twilight?"
Zelda sighed. Then carefully grabbed Midna's Hand. "Midna... I believe I understand now just who and what you are...Despite your mortal injuries, you act in our stead...These dark times are the result of our deeds, yet it is you who have reaped the penalty."
Zelda's hand begins to glow.
"
Accept this now, Midna. I pass it to you..."
"No," Midna began to cry out, "Link! STOP HER!"
Zelda began to glow bright, just as her hand did. Slowly, while still holding onto Midna hand, she began to drift into the air. As she was drifting, her physical body began to fade. She became transparent, as her hands became to faded to hold, so her hands slipped from Midna. On more bright light flashed where Zelda was, and then...she vanished. Midna was also shining brightly. She began to float, not of her own doing, above the ground.
The light enveloping Midna became to bright, so I had to duck. Once the light subsided, I removed my head from my paws to see...Midna. Alive and well. As if nothing happened to her at all. She kinda stood there for a second, staring down at her own hands as if they weren't real. I tell you, I was definitely glad she was real.
"We got to go back Link! Back to Faron Woods!" After that, she softly landed on my back. She gave me something that had me suspecting her feelings had changed for me ever since then. I was waiting for Midna to warp us...
And then... She hugged me...not just a quick hug either...she really embraced me then. She wrapped both arms around my neck, and buried her face in my fur. Even in my dog form, I felt warmth. She broke the embrace after a couple of seconds, and stared at her and again.
"Zelda...," She began, still staring at her hand still recovering from shock, "...I have taken all that you have to give...even thought I did not want it..."
Midna's POV
The sunlight from Link's window pierced in between my eyes, and that caused me to wake up from the most pleasant sleep I have ever had. I cracked my eyes open slightly, and even then, I was able to see Links eyes doing the same thing. I could wake up to those sapphires ANY and EVERY day. I wonder what my love was dreaming about. Because he was smiling again. That same smile that won me over in the very beginning. I couldn't help but to show a grin back. I loved him...and he loved me. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
"Slept well, my hero?" I asked him.
"Yea...what about you? You were twitching."
"Oh, don't worry, I slept like it was no tomorrow...in your arms."
"Must have been some dream you had."
"You don't know the half of it."
"Mind telling me?"
"Tee hee! Maybe I will...or maybe its already happening."
I wrapped my arms around Links neck again. Seeing as I fell asleep in his arms, he didn't have to redo the gesture...he was already embracing me. I slid my head over to his, just enough for me to press my lips against his. His tender touch made me melt in his arms. This kiss was unlike anything my heart felt before, just like last night. Except this time, just like we were sharing this moment together, we were sharing our feelings for each other through this simple, yet heavenly kiss.
"I love you Link," I said under my breath as I was gasping for air after our lips parted.
"I love you too, Midna," He replied as he began to sit up. I was still laying down, so I just rolled over onto my back, and watched him stretch himself out. I could look at him forever and still not get bored of him. He finished stretching, and he got up out of bed, my eyes completely fixated on him, until he walked into his bathroom.
"Ha ha, better wash up doggy! I still tasted morning breath!" I heard him start some sort of a shower that he created.
"Oh ha ha twili girl!"
"And? I happen to love being a twili girl."
"And maybe I happen to like morning breath."
"Well I wont have you killing me with it either, dog boy."
"That's why I am washing up. So I can keep my hygiene, breath, and looks clean." He didn't have to try to look good. He was always looking like something straight out of a fairy tale. It was like Beauty and the Beast. Except the male wasn't the Beast. Because, for one, I was the Imp. And Two, Link is the most beautiful person I have ever had the experience of laying my eyes upon.
I almost got myself lost im my thoughts about the fact that I was with him, and I heard him stop the shower. He began using a bucket under a mirror in his bathroom to brush his teeth. "OK," I started, "So you got hygiene taken care of, breath HOPEFULLY taken care off, now just get your golden locks, and your sapphire eyes and your flourishing skin back to their peak, and you will be, literally, to die for."
Link's POV
"Good looks kill." I said finishing up in the bathroom. Now I was just washing my face.
"In that case," Midna Began, "...I'm already dead, and in your heaven" "Hm? What for?" "Because my doggy is soo damn beautiful. If only he know just how magnificent he was through my eyes..."
"Aww, and my little sexy devil on that bed in there is stealing all the attention with her good looks!" And what was sad, was that she really WAS stealing the attention...all MY attention anyways, as we were the only people in my home at the moment. I emerged from the bathroom, hair currently wet as I just washed it. I could tell Midna was undressing me with her eyes, as I made my way over to my dresser where I set my things at last night.
But before I could grab anything off of my dresser, I was enveloped in twili magic. It surrounded me from head to toe, so I couldn't see anything in the room. Once the twili magic dispersed, I found that I was wearing my green tunic, however this time, I was not wearing my hat, and my green tunic had the Tri-Force symbol etched on the right chest area. I also noticed that the tunic had silver flame-style linings on it. My undergarment was no longer brown, but a shade of silver. And last thing, was that my boots had gotten an overhaul. They were no longer plain brown. This time, they were silver, and the outside of them had the feel of silk making. They also had green linings on the left and right side of both boots, and the Tri-Force symbol was also etched in the right boot on the right side of it.
"Whoa! I impress myself! Midna...thank you for this."
I turned to face her, and she was simply smiling. I truly felt a loss for words, once my eyes met hers. She was really showing a compassionate side of her, and it was something that I wasn't quite used too yet. But one thing is for sure. I loved her...every bit of her...the good and the bad, with every fiber of my being.
"Your welcome my hero." And with a snap of her fingers, she was also surrounded in twili magic, and within an instant, she was standing up, and she looked reinvigorated. She hovered off of the bed, and she began floating until she was directly in front of me.
"So hero, now that you got your rest, know what we need to do in order to go to the Gerudo Desert now?"
"Yea. Remember that Auru guy, that was in Telma's bar? That was a part of her little resistance group. And now I remember that he DOES often stand atop a tower in Lake Hylia. So, im wondering if he knows a way to get to Gerudo Desert. Maybe it will have something to do with that Giant Cannon at that one guy's crazy Amusement Park at the center of the lake. Who knows?"
"I can see where this is going. If push comes to shove, you are planning to shoot yourself, all the way to the Gerudo Desert?" "Yea...as crazy as that sounds, it appears that there isn't to many choices I have at the moment."
"Well...Link just promise me one thing." A slight hint of worry was in her eyes.
"What is it, Midna?" I used my right hand, and cuffed her cheek with it, caressing it, causing her to close her eyes, and let me comfort her. After a couple of seconds, she opened her eyes, and took hold of my hand with her own, and pulled my hand down from her face, but by her side.
"Be careful okay? I already lost my best friend...I don't want to lose my husband too."
That was a shocker in the morning. "Husband?" I was surprised, yet beginning to feel shy at the same time. "Wh...when did that idea come up?"
"With the suit." She replied with her usual mischievous grin returning. "You didn't think that the suit was free did you, my little doggie?"
NOW there was the Midna that I was used to seeing everyday. However, the old sadistic Midna was never coming back, and even now, Midna seemed like a whole new...person. I reversed the hold she had on my hand, so now I was holding hers. I pulled her closer to me, and lifted her hand up to my lips, and kissed it. She tasted like nothing...and everything at the same time. It was something I never actually had the chance to experience before. I mean, Ilia wanted to, but I didn't quite feel the same way. What I saw in Midna, that I didn't see in Ilia...was the fact that we were completely different people. And as the old saying goes, 'Opposites attract'. She, still hovering, shivered at the feel of my lips touching her hand, and it made her blush in plain sight. I broke the moment, and I let Midna's hand go. I just began...smiling.
"He he he. Well just make sure that there is lots of food at the reception, hon."
"Ha ha ha! Kidding Link...unless...you...um..."
Was she trying to ask me for real? I really wanted to hear her finish her sentence, but something told me to wait until this was all over with before something that big would come up. I silenced her with my lips pressing against hers for a quick kiss. I leaned back out of her face, and just stared into her fire-red eyes. "Lets save our worlds, then ask me that again."
Midna looked even happier then before now. I guess she was thinking that I already offered to marry her...and not that I wouldn't.
"Alright Dog boy," She began, still grinning, "I will hold you to that. Now then, lets go out to your balcony, and I can warp you to the lake."
Midna's POV:
Why every time I talk to Link, he does or says something that gets my heart racing? As if I already had enough to keep me going on this quest of ours. Now, I have our new found love, AND the fact that he will propose to me, after this is all said and done.
So I floated over his head, and landed on it. As we headed towards his balcony, I played with my hero's hair. It was still kinda soft from the wash that he gave it. It smelled soo good too. No shampoo in my realm could match the way his hair...let alone his whole BODY smells. And it was wonderful.
We were out on the balcony now. "Link...I would never get tired of waking up to you in the morning." He just smiled , and I played with his hair some more. Like last night, we stopped and stared at the village from his balcony. Its splendor only increased, as it was the sunrise illuminating the quiet village. NEVER, have I seen so much color in my whole life. As if Ordon in the dark was beautiful. Looking at Ordon now...lets just say even taking a picture of this moment, wouldn't be enough to capture this moment. If I woke up like this on a daily basis...even thinking about it sort of gave me the warmth that I felt, kissing my hero last night. I tapped my hero on the head, and he gave me a nod. I knew now that he was ready to resume my...our journey.
"Link?"
"Yea, Midy?"
"What are...you gonna do once this is all over?"
"You know? I haven't given much thought about it. This single journey has been the most eventful thing that has ever happened to me...It was like I was doing it all. Saving damsels in distress...escaping from dungeons...fighting the most corrupt villains of the world...and most of all..." he sighed, then continued, "...I met you. My only love...so what I was wondering...was maybe...when it was all said and done...if...if you-OW!"
I pulled his hair to cut him off. "Lets save our worlds, then ask me that again."
"Alright, but I will hold you to that, Midna."
"He he! And I wouldn't have it any other way, Link."
I pulled out the Dark Crystal that had once terrorized my love. Ironically, the same magic that once haunted him was helping him. Anyway, I floated off of him, and turned to face him. He was smiling. I was so joyful for him, that I smiled back. I lent in to kiss him one last time, and then I touched his forehead with the crystal. That in turn, turned my hero into his wolf form. Even though he was a wolf, he was still smiling. That really made my heart refill with that warm feeling that happens every minute with him. I gently floated down onto Link's back and focused my hair into a hand again.
And with the simple warping command again, a portal opened up in mid-air, in front of Link's balcony. He backed up a few steps, then ran full-speed forward towards the edge. I was hanging onto my hero for dear life, but I was not scared. I was safe with him, and I knew it. He jumped into the portal and just like that...we were on our way again...
...On our way to Lake Hylia.
It was the path to Gerudo Desert...the path to the Arbiter Grounds...the path to the Twilight Mirror.
And finally...the path to our destiny.
AS Fire: Whew! This is going along rather nicely, dont you think?
