Legend of Zelda

The Goddess Cup

Book 1

Chapter Three

Kidnapped

I called to Link telling him that I will be in the secret spot so he knows to get me when the party started. I was just sitting there thinking. What will that kingdom look like up close? Is there a hidden village behind the waterfall and in the volcano? That went on for minutes almost an hour. I sighed and mumbled to myself, "I wonder what is beyond the village." Sudenly I heard something. It sounded like a person crawling through the leaves, but it was different. It was like wind. Suddenly it was above me.

It spoke. "Who are you?"

I answered. " I...my...n..name..is Jink. Wh...who are you. ..where are you?"

Suddenly he popped out right above me. He was a shadow with red eyes. I recognized him immediately. He was the Shadowlink, in Link and my dreams. I squeaked. I couldn't say anything. He chuckled. " You're small. So young. So easy." He sounded sad like he didn't want to do whatever he was doing. He looked into my eyes and I looked back. I could feel fear and surprise on my face, the want to scream rising in my throat. I calmed down. He looked surprised. "Why are you not afraid of me?"

" Why are you here? I'll tell you why I'm not scared if you tell me." he sighed.

"Someone wants to kidnap you."

"Do you want to?"

"I have no choice." He stopped, and he might have thought that he had told me to much. " Where is your friend Link?"

"Will you kidnap him too?" That was a definite hint. "Please don't hurt my friend."

"No, I can't." I sighed with relief. "I'm sorry." He lifted his hand to my forehead. I was almost certain that he was going to wipe my memory. I shut my eyes. trying to hold on to the memories that were most dear to me, sitting up here with Link. I also want to hold on to my dream that I had last night too. Suddenly I felt like I was floating. I could not think. I couldn't even move.
