I'm rather saddened nobody's reviewing. I gave everybody loads of time to get even one review, and that's all I got; Just one. And know what else? They didn't even try to guess who were on the pictures in the castle.
Disappointing.
I get loads of Story Alerts, Faves, Author Follows, Author Faves; But nobody's giving me a review. It's sad, really. I'd appreciate at least five reviews before the next chapter; Not too much, but enough to tell me I'm doing well so far. And, if there aren't five reviews by the next time I try to update, I suppose I'll just have to discard this story like my many others.
Thank you; and have a nice day.
Kagome rubbed her head in frustration.
This new mission of hers would most likely kill her in the long run.
"Alright, in a few days time, the hero will arrive. You need to learn some ways to protect yourself better other than your odd powers," Zelda spoke with a smile. "I see you have a bow and arrows, and a sword. Do you know how to use them?"
She nodded, choosing to not open her mouth.
Zelda smiled wider. "Good! Now," Some guards put up dummy's and targets, "Hit and shoot those so we know where your skills are at."
Shrugging, Kagome wielded her sword and took stance before running after one, slicing it in two. She whipped around, slicing the next in half, straight through the middle. Suddenly sheathing her weapon, she drew two arrows and pulled the string back, firing one at one target, the other at another; both simultaneously hitting straight in the middle.
Unsheathing her sword again, she spun around stepping closer to her 'foe' and stabbed it straight through the middle. Pulling it out, she pulled it straight up, through the head, stepping away and looking at her handy work.
The place was now a mess.
Zelda, in awe, stared up after her. Her eyes gleamed and sparkled in new found hope. "Wow," She casted out breathlessly. "That was simply amazing! You truly are a Warrior!" Kagome blushed at the praise, rubbing the back of her neck.
"I did have the best teacher I suppose," Kagome commented, wistfully thinking of Sesshoumaru. Her heart began to ache as her thoughts trailed to her late love, so she banished her thoughts away.
Zelda smiled, grabbing her hand and leading her back inside the castle. "You are no doubt going to be a huge help to our Hero."
Yay for her.
Kid Link groaned, waking up groggily. His head hurt like a Deku Nut fell on it.
Repeatedly.
"Hey!" A voice called, startling him. "Listen!" He looked out his window, seeing a bright, cheery fairy.
Wait- Fairy?
He looked in surprise and awe; a fairy had finally come to him! He wasn't a freak like anyone else said! He could barely contain his excitement. "The Great Deku Tree has sent me to get you; he needs to talk to you! It's urgent! So hurry up and go over there!"
…
Boy his fairy sure was bossy. And a chatter box to boot.
The fairy suddenly dashed and hid under his cap, making a home there. Odd. But whatever.
Getting up, he stretched and dashed out of his house, only to be stopped by the sound of someone's voice.
"Link," Saria called. "Yahoo! Hi, Link!" He waved down to her, sliding down the ladder and grinned, his fairy popping out.
"Wow! A fairy! Finally, a fairy came to you, Link! Wow! That's great news! I'm so happy for you! Now you're a true Kokiri, Link!" He nodded, chuckling at his best friend's hyperness. "I need to go to the Great Deku Tree. He summoned me by this fairy."
Saria grinned wider. "Is that right? The Great Deku Tree has summoned you? It's quite an honor to talk to the Great Deku Tree! I'll wait for you here. Get going! Go see the Great Deku Tree!" He nodded, laughing, and took off in the direction of the Great Deku Tree.
Shortly after walking, he came across another Kokiri child; Mido. "Hold it, freak!" Mido said, holding his hand up to stop Link. "You need to see the Great Deku Tree, eh? Why's that?" Seeing the fairy, he growled. "That's too bad! It's dangerous out there. You'll first need a sword and a shield."
He waved Link away, ignoring him. Link sighed, where would he find a sword? The shield was easy, but he didn't have any rupees on him.
Walking back, he walked through the training area and smiled. There had always been this tiny hole in the wall and he's been tempted to get through ever since he saw it. Bending down and shimming through, he made his way to the other side.
(I feel like I should cut it off right here as punishment for not reviewing :( but I'm not that cruel.)
"WHAAAAAAT?" Mido screamed in astonishment and fury. "Where did you find the Kokiri's Sacred sword? And you have a shield too?" He groaned, moving to the side. "Fine, you can enter. Just don't mess anything up, ya' here?"
Link smiled, walking through and looking around.
"Hey- Watch out!" Stiffening, he jumped back and dodged an attack from a weird plant. The fairy, I had come to learn her name was Navi, called out and said it was called a Deku Baba; a nasty weed like plant. Killing it, I ran into more of those creatures and some others before finally reaching the end where the Great Deku Tree was.
"Ah," His voice boomed out. "Thou hast returned Navi. And thou hast brought thee child? Very good," Link walked forward, to the edge where the path ended in a slope. "There is a tale I must tell you my young boy. It is a very special tale that you must know…"
-Twenty minutes later—
"…And that is why I have called upon thee, Link. You are the one that can help us." Link gapped in shock, slowly processing. "I see you are already equipped. Will you take yourself on this journey and rid of the evil that ails me?"
Link thought for no longer than a second before nodding, determination in his pale blue eyes. The old tree smiled before opening his mouth wide. "Then quickly, with great hast young hero. Enter my body and rid me of the evil within."
Running through, Link never looked back. But had he did, he would have seen a certain female ghost of ours watching with a smile.
Kagome sat alone outside, looking up at the clouds and thinking on her life. She thought about the Feudal Era, her modern home, and wondering what her life would be like now. What would become of her friends? Would she really be able to return? We're they doing okay?
She sighed for the nineteenth time in the last hour, closing her eyes and relaxing her mind as the wind curled around her head. Hearing feet crunching the ground, she snapped her eyes open and gazed at the intruder, whom only happened to be Zelda.
Calming her nerves for battle, she shifted in place and closed her eyes once more until a soft voice called out. "Um, Kagome…?"
She opened her eyes with a calming smile. "Yes Princess Zelda? Do you need something?" She bit her lip and fidgeted cutely. Kagome could barely contain her squeal; she was just too cute for her own good! "I was wondering if you would… Um…"
Zelda's cheeks couldn't hold much more red, and if possible, they grew redder at Kagome's laughter. She stood from her seat on the ground, cuddling Zelda. "You're so adorable! I wish you were my younger sister; I could just gobble you up!"
Zelda giggled at the Warrior's attitude. She leaned into Kagome's comforting hug, not used to such affections. After pulling away, Kagome kneeled to the young princess' level. "Now, what was it you wanted?"
Blinking, she blushed once more and pulled out a harp. "D-Do you know how to play? Or would you let me practice in your presence? I'm rather shy in front of others." Kagome giggled, nodding, and sat back down once more. "I don't know how to play, but I'd love to watch you play!"
Zelda smiled brightly and jumped for joy. "Oh, thank you Kagome!" Calming down shortly after, she held the harp in the correct position and soon began to play a soft melody. It relaxed Kagome's nerve struck mind quickly and her body began to unwind soon after.
Zelda started humming along, swaying with her plucks on the strings and the melody itself. Soon, the song ended just as softly as it came, and Zelda looked to a peacefully slumbering Kagome, whom had a smile on her lips.
Silent steps came from behind her as Impa walked up and placed a blanket around her, smiling in amusement. "You did well, young princess," Her soft voice called. Zelda blushed, smiling brightly at her new friend. "I just wanted her to stop stressing, Impa. She looked rather pained from her thoughts."
Impa grinned. "Quite. I shall have some extra guards keep watch on this area. Do be careful out here princess. Should you need anything, you know what to do." Impa jumped back, and used her Sheika Deku Nut flash step, disappearing from the area, leaving the two females alone.
Zelda smiled and sat next to Kagome, snuggling up to her. In response, Kagome wrapped the blanket and her arm around the young girl, and soon sleep welcomed them both.
So, yeah, there ya go! I wanted Kagome and Zelda to have a connection somewhere in this; it makes for a better story line later on. So, like I had stated before the story started, I want at least five reviews. Please? Or else no more story.
This warning applies to all stories as of now. I don't want to sit there, typing away and not get any responses in return. All writers, as you yourself should know, need to know if their stories are any good and we can't tell if theirs anything wrong with favorites or likes. Thanks!
