Hey guys! Sorry the chapter is short but I thought that this was a good stopping point. Ahem, I couldn't help but notice that no one reviewed my last chapter :'( So now I shameless beg for you to please, pretty please review this one(even if you say you didn't like it, I don't care, just review it). Thanks a bunch and enjoy!
When I walk in the cloaked figure turns around and faces me. The person is a young woman, a very beautiful young woman.
"Midna?" she says, looking at the imp on my back. That must be her name.
"You remembered my name?" the imp, Midna, says giggling, "What an honor for me."
I look up to see her rolling her eyes.
"So this is the one for whom you were searching." The woman says. So she knows what's going on as well.
"He's not exactly what I had in mind but I guess he will do," Midna says dismissively. Well don't I feel needed. Again, what does she want me to do?
The woman kneels down in front of me, looking at the shackle still on my ankle.
"You were imprisoned?" she asked, sounding concerned. She is gorgeous, I think incoherently, looking into her grey eyes.
"Poor thing, he has no idea where this is or what's happened," Midna taunts, "So don't you think you should explain to him what you've managed to do?" she asks scathingly.
The woman stands and goes back to the window.
"Listen carefully…This was once the kingdom of Hyrule. But the blessed kingdom has been transformed by the king that rules the twilight into a world of shadow. The kingdom has succumbed to the shroud of twilight but I remain its princess." She says sadly. So I am in Hyrule! That must mean that the woman is…
"I am Zelda," the woman says, turning to face me and takes off the hood of her cloak. I am stunned. I think back to a day ago when Rusl and I laughed at the thought of me meeting Princess Zelda.
"You don't need to look so sad. We actually find it to be quite livable," Midna says with false cheerfulness, "I mean is perpetual twilight really all that bad?"
"Midna, this no time for levity," Zelda says sharply, "The shadow beasts have been searching all over for you. Why is this?"
"Why indeed?" Midna asks looking uncomfortable, "You tell me," she says giggling uneasily.
"Time has grown short," Zelda says looking at the door, "The guard will soon make his rounds. You must leave here quickly."
I turn around back to the door, still stunned by this new knowledge. Midna is still on my back and hurries me down the stairs. When we are below the window where we came in she stops me.
"Not that way! The guard's coming!" Midna says, "Boy, he's prompt."
I jump into the window and walk out on the roof. Midna floats off my back and hovers before me.
"Well? Do you understand where we are now?" Midna asks.
Yep, I'm in the Hyrule castle, where ironically enough is where I wanted to go in the first place. Except I wanted to come here as a human.
"I guess a promise is a promise," Midna says, "So I will let you go back to where you first tumbled into twilight." Finally I can go home!
"But are you really sure you should be going back?" Midna asks mysteriously, "Are you sure you aren't forgetting anything important?" She then transforms into Colin and Ilia. With meeting Zelda and all I had completely forgotten about Ilia and Colin!
"Do you want to save them?" Midna asks, using Ilia's voice, "Well in that case I would be happy to help you." Midna transformed back into herself.
"But you have to be my servant," she says, "And like a servant you have to do exactly as I say."
"Look here you little imp! You had better take me to Colin and Ilia right now!" I futilely try to yell. She has another thing coming if she thinks I'm going to be her servant. I wonder if I could find Colin and Ilia in the castle by myself.
"Why don't you go back, take a little time and think about it," Midna giggles. Before I can do anything she zaps me like she did with my chain in the prison and a blackness enfolds me. This is not like passing out because I am aware of my surrounding. I feel like I'm being rushed somewhere, but in a matter of seconds the blackness is gone and I'm standing in the Ordon pool again. I look at myself and I see that I am still a wolf.
"Oh that's right, I forgot to mention one thing," I hear Midna's voice but I can't see her, "Though you may have left the darkened realm, you haven't transformed back into your former self and you won't anytime soon." I can hear her giggle and say goodbye.
I look around. The pool looks like it did before Colin and Ilia were captured. I walk over to the edge of the pool, completely miserable. Not only did I fail to rescue Colin and Ilia, I am still a wolf with no hope of being human again. I succumb to my despair and curl up in a ball and watch the sun slowly sink over the horizon. Eventually I fall asleep trying to think of what I could have done differently.
