Hey everybody~ zeldax here. I made it just on time! exactly one week. I've been really busy lately. Last weekend I went to a anime and gaming expo, and I cosplayed as Zelda from Skyward sword! it took me 2 months to do the costume!, it was my first time cosplaying so I was a little nervous xD anyways. I had a whole batch of cookies made and only one person reviewed so I guess I'm going to give the whole batch to AFightingDreamer yay! *gives cookies*
okay enough talking, please enjoy this random chapter!
CHAPTER 4: The first day part 1
Darkness, was filled around me. I could hear a low voice laughing in the background. Footsteps of boots running up endless stairs. I looked around me, Ropes tied tightly around my arms, trapping my blood.
"ZELDA!" I heard a voice coming from the stairs. A man around my age showed up. He wore a green tunic with a sword in his hand. His face was blurry, so I couldn't identify who he was.
Suddenly a loud ringing came through my air.. He kept calling my name, each time it got higher and higher until it sounded like a girl.
"Zelda! Wake up! "
I lay on my bed blinking until my vision got clearer. I saw a person with a worried look standing above me with green hair. It was Saria.
"Huh...?.. Where am I?"
" Zelda ! It's Monday, you're going to be late on your first day" Saria started going through my drawer and picking out outfits.
" How'd you get in here?" I said as I sad up from my bed while watching Saria.
" The door was unlocked, you should really lock your door, we've only got an hour left before school starts so I think you should quickly get up. Yes! Wear this outfit"
"..uh okay thanks" I got up from my bed and walked over to Saria to get my clothes and headed towards the bathroom to take a shower.
40 minutes later..
I was ready..and nervous. I wore a simple pink sweater with an owl
Print along with my triangle necklace and black skinny jeans. my hair was plaited on the side with a red ribbon.
"All ready" I said to Saria as she was patiently sitting on the spare bed.
" You seem wide awake, thats good. We've got twenty minutes left so let's head down to the cafeteria with the rest of us".
I got my bag full of books and strapped it on one side of my shoulder and locked the door.
Once we met up, we began to sit down and get our food. I had a croissant and orange juice.
Link was laughing with Dark, pipit and some other people I didn't know yet. He was acting strange yesterday when he left to go to the bathroom, he didn't come out for a long time. Not that I should care.
" Good morning Zelda!" Karane said as she came sitting down next to me followed by midna sitting next to her.
"Morning" I said while munching on my bread.
"You excited for your first day?"
I swallowed my last piece." A little nervous actually"
" Don't worry, you'll be fine. What class have you got first?"
" Um lemme just check" . I pulled out my timetable from my bag. " I have history class first"
karane looked a bit sad. "oh that sucks. I have gym first and so does the rest of us, guess this could be a chance to get to know some people"
Disappointment was all over my face. How was I supposed to make new friends without anyone that I know?. I know I shouldn't be relying on others, but this is the first time I have actually made friends and I have never felt any happier.
" You're right.. I'll just go and make some new friends."
Saria walked over to us. " Hey guys, we should head to our classrooms now. Class is about to start"
I got up and pushed in the chair taking my remaining orange juice and saving it for later.
" So do I just go to history class first?" I asked
" No, don't worry about directions for now. First before we begin first period we have home room where the teacher just takes the roll and while we just sit and do nothing for about half an hour." Saria explained.
I felt a sudden relief flow through me. " okay thanks. Are you in my home room class?"
" Unfortunately not... Neither is Karane, saria and pipit, but Link is in your class!" Saria smiled
A sudden wave of hate ran through me as if I was just struck by lightning. " oh that's just great" I muttered to myself.
.
.
We walked along a long corridor until we arrived at our homerooms
"We're next door so we can talk after homeroom, okay bye!" saria said as she disappeared into the class room. Great. I'm stuck with link as the only person I know.
" Hello there, might you be miss Harkinian?" A man with blonde hair and round classes asked.
" ..yes."
" okay well, I am your homeroom teacher professor shad. It's nice to meet you. If you would, can you please introduce yourself to the class?"
" Uh okay."
Once the classroom was filled with the sound of girls giggling and guys laughing. Professor shad stood up and started to talk.
" Alright everyone. Silence. We have a new student today here. Please introduce yourself."
I slowly walked up to the front of the room I noticed all the guys staring at me while all the girls were whispering into each others ears.
" Hello, my name is Zelda, Nice to meet you" I spoke up
" Okay now miss harkinian, please take a seat next to.." he said as he was looking around the room. " sit next to Link over there!"
No way. He did not just say that! Why do people always want me to suffer? . I looked down and slowly walked to the seat next to me. I ignored link and took my seat. I saw all the other girls glaring at me. I sighed and payed no attention to their loud whispers.
A girl stood up. She began to walk over to our table nervously. She was a zora. She looked pretty enough to be a zora princess.
" H-hi link.. I heard about how you fell.. I hope you're feeling better. And I got you some chocolate" her face turned bright red.
" thanks Ruto" link smiled and and gently took the chocolates from her hand. She turned even more red, I wonder how red can she get?. The girl giggled and ran back into her seat.
Wow. All the girls are all over him, I thought. But why? He acts so nice to that girl and treats me like dirt. I thought about how saria said that he hasn't found the 'right girl' for him yet. I wonder what his ideal girl is like.
" So how is your day so far?" link said
" What? Why should you care?' I said back
" Hey can't I just have a decent conversation with you once in a while even if we hate each other?"
" I suppose, my day has been alright" .Link smiled at my response. I looked around and saw a girl glaring daggers at me, I quickly turned around and ignored her, it's not like I like link or anything. That moment when he looked at me and asked me about my day. I felt that calmness once again and a sense of dejavu come over me.
*RING RING RING*
Everyone got off their chairs and headed for their first class. what do I do? Where am I supposed to go?. I walked to the teacher hoping that he would help.
" excuse me but I was wondering, where is the history class" I said as I got out my timetable. Professor shad looked down at my timetable and looked up at me to give a small smile.
" Don't worry, I will find somebody to help you out. IS ANYONE GOING TO HISTORY RIGHT NOW?" He yelled across the room nearly stopping everyone.
The girl from earlier who gave the chocolates to link Raised her hand.
" Could you please take Zelda with you?"
The girl nodded " Comon Zelda, let's go" she smiled and waited for me to catch up to her.
We both walked in silence along the corridors until she came to a stop when no one was around. She grabbed my sweater and pushed me into the wall. Her eyes mixed with anger and fear
" Look you, I don't know who you are or what have you got to do with link but, stay away from him. I don't want to see you and link together." Her hands still gripped tightly onto my shirt, what is she talking about? I don't even want to be with link, why is she so mad?
" Uh.. Me and link have nothing going on.. I don't even like him" I was afraid that she was going to slap me or something much more worse, but instead, she let go of me and sighed;
" Oh, I'm sorry. I thought that you and link were.. You know."
" That's okay. I'm assuming that you have a crush on link?" I asked curiously. Her face turned bright read
" SHH! not so loud! Well there's really no point in keeping quiet since everyone already knows that I have a huge crush on him. I'm Ruto by the way, sorry about earlier again."
" but why link? I mean, why does everyone choose him out of all the other guys ?"
" Why not? Link is the hottest guy! And he's nice and has brains He's like the complete package" Ruto started jumping up and down while giggling.
We walked the rest of the way to history while hearing Ruto blabbing about how her and link are going to be married one day. We finally reached the classroom, I was glad that I didn't have to hear Ruto talk so much about link now. We both took a seat on the middle table while waiting for the rest of the class to arrive. I was always good in history, that's pretty much the reason why they sent me here. To learn more about history!. Everyone in the class settled down as they watched the teacher scribble the date on the chalkboard.
"Alright everyone, My name is Mr Owlan, and the reason why I'm saying this is because I believe there is a new student, Miss Zelda Harkinian is it?.
" yes, that is me" I replied.
Every turned their chairs to face me. Is everyone going to do this in every class today?. I smiled back at them. As the time was going by, I tried to concentrate but I failed, mainly because Ruto was constantly secretly sending unnecessary notes to me. Just before I was going to yell at Ruth's constant giggling, the bell rang and hopefully she wouldn't be in my next class.
" Hey Zelda. What have you got now?" Ruto asked
" I have science now, what about you?"
" Aw! You're not in my next class, I have English now!, but science class is on the way to English so I can take you there" Ruto offered
" thanks Ruto, that would help a lot" I smiled at her and she gave me a smile back.
The science block was so far away from the history block that I could just collapse any moment considering we had to walk up 5 levels . On our way we bumped into one of Ruto's friends.
She had short blonde hair and wore a white top with shorts.
" I heard there's a new girl, who is she?" the girl asked not noticing I was next to Ruto.
" Um, Ilia, she's right here" Ruto said pointing to me. the girl turned to me in realization
" OH! Right sorry. Didn't see you there, my name is Ilia, what's yours?"
" Zelda" I said not understanding how she couldn't see me.
" you going to science?" she asked while eyeing me up and down
" yes"
" oh, well I have English with Ruto" Ilia replied.
We continued walking I blocked put the noises of Ruto talking about link to Ilia, seems that Ilia also had a huge crush on link. Eventually we came to a stop. Ruto pointed to the left
" Theres your science class Zelda, I'll see you around?"
" Okay, thanks Ruto"
Ruto and Ilia waved goodbye to me as I entered the noisy classroom.
I looked around the classroom and saw Pipit I smiled at him. I noticed link was sitting next to pipit while talking to Dark. I thought it would be best not to sit by him incase me and link started another fight.
I sat down the nearest seat I could find. Next to me was a girl who looked kind of strange, as if she was some kind of robot. She was all blue and had a cape over her hiding her arms, I wondered if she even had arms, she looked at me without any expression.
" oh sorry, can I sit here?" I asked. She studied my face with concentration. She had light blue eyes, I couldn't even see her pupils, I hoped they were contacts.
" There is a 98% chance that you are the new student Zelda Harkinian" she had a robotic voice with a tune. I was kind of freaked out by what she said.
"h-how do you know?" I asked completely shocked.
" I saw your name on the teachers desk and I haven't seen you in here" she responded calmly.
" ah.. Right"
A grumpy man with rosy cheeks came into the room. He looked annoyed and Tired like he has never smiled in his life.
" okay class. Today we have a new student, please come to the front and introduce yourself." he sat back onto his chair and stared to read the newspaper. I got up from my chair and walked to the front, I was kind of getting the hang of this now. I looked up and saw a guy who had a ridiculously big pompadour and yellow eyes, he didn't stop staring at me and was he having a nosebleed?
" Hi, my name is Zelda" I said, I looked at the teacher and he looked back at me with a boring face, not that it changed ever since he walked into the classroom.
" It's mr Rupin for you" he said.
I nodded and walked back to my seat. The guy who was staring at me before fell of his chair. The whole class laughed. Link acted casual as if this was a normal occurrence.
The rest of the period, I sat there trying to avoid eye contact with the guy from before since he was still staring at me. Every now and then link would poke his tongue out at me. I sighed, this is going to be a long day.
I hope this chapter wasn't too weird.. PLEASE REVIEWWW!~
