Archery Round 1
A/N: I just realized that I didn't put any disclaimers when I stared this, so I don't own the awesome video games or manga known as the Legend Of Zelda. So without further ado, here is Archery Round 1.
Link's pov
I am taking a few practice shots when they call me first to the line. We will each get 5 shots until the next city goes. There is one area for one amount of points. I levelled my bow and Knocked an arrow. I let it fly and got a 3. Damn, not gonna win any medals shooting like that. I thought. I licked my finger and held it up. The wind is blowing to the east. I drew another arrow and aimed it slightly to the left of the bullseye. I let it go and it hit dead center. Ya! I thought and felt like screaming it out.
"Lets do that again" I mumbled to myself. So I took another arrow from my half-empty quiver and pulled back the bowstring. I aimed it in the exact same place as last time. I fired, but I only hit the 8 area so I figured the wind wasn't blowing east anymore. Two arrows left, Two chances for a bullseye. I grabbed my second last arrow, aimed for the middle and released. It was pretty much on the bullseye line, but the judges decided it was a 9. One more. A 29 was good but a 39 is better. I put the arrow on the string pulled it back, aimed and prayed to Din. When I checked the result I hoisted my arms in the air and walked away a happy man.
Leif's pov
Ok Leif, concentrate. I told myself silently. I drew my first arrow, aimed, and fired at the bullseye. Bullseye! I knocked one more. One bullseye after another. This is my lucky day. I thought. I took one more arrow, drew it back, and let it fly. It couldn't have gotten any closer to the middle. A 49. Quite amazing. My competitors will need a perfect score to beat me. Let's se who's left. Link only got a 39, so he can't win. Talia the Zora has almost zero chance. The only one that might have a chance is Gralde, the archer from Castle town. But that is highly unlikely, cause the chances of perfect are slim to none…
Talia's pov
Ok Talia, 5 bullseyes to win. That's not so hard. Right? I questioned myself as I stepped up to the line. I knocked an arrow and fired. 7. Well, I'm done. I thought to myself. But I can get second. That's good. So I fired again. Again I fired. And by the time I had 1 arrow left, I had 38 points. I looked at Link's face. He was definitely nervous. A smirk formed on my face. I pulled back my last arrow. But my finger slipped and I missed completely. My smirk turned into a look of disappointment and disbelief. How could I let that happen? I let my whole nation down. I could hear Links sigh of relief. I dropped my arms and walked away, defeated.
Gralde's pov
I stepped up to the line. Alright, time to get myself a gold medal. I concentrated and fired arrow number 1. Dead center. 1 down, 4 to go. I took a few deep breaths before I knocked another one. Bullseye. I felt like jumping for joy. But that wouldn't be well, professional. The third arrow was the exact same. Ok, pressures on now. I let number 4 fly. Just one more, just one more I told myself. So I knocked my last arrow. I took a few deep breaths, aimed, and let it fly.
Cliffhangers, MWAHAHAHAHA!
