"Your not my hero anymore..."
Her strained voice rang through his mind, over and over again.
It was obvious by the sound of her voice she was hurting, probably crying too, but he was too busy hiding his face to see if she was crying or not.
He stayed in the same position he was left in, standing, naked, his arms chained to the ceiling and his ankles chained to the floor. The demon lord had left shortly after Zelda had made her exit. Link was almost convinced Zelda was going to let him rot here with the demon lord, but he knew her better than that. No matter how much she hates him, she wouldn't have the heart to leave him here to rot.
The blond male shivered, the cave he was in wasn't the warmest of places to be, especially when he's stood completely naked.
One of his ears twitched when he heard footsteps approaching. The demon lord was making his return, what torture did he have planned for him this time? He had already humiliated him, caused him nothing but pain, and yet he stilled continued to abuse him. What kind of revenge did this guy have in store?
"Rise and shine~" Ghirahim sung joyfully as he practically danced his way into Link's little prison cell. Link didn't even raise his head or make any move to acknowledge that the demon lord was even in the room.
"How rude. Even after I'm about to let you go" Ghirahim cooed gently, this got the reaction he watned. The blond gave a little jolt as he looked up to meet the gaze of the demon lord.
"What...? Why would you want to let me go?" Link was dumbfounded. This didn't make any sense! The demon lord had him right where he wanted him, why didn't he just kill him and get it over with?
"I've had my fun...for now anyway" Ghirahim smirked and watched as the younger male shivered violently at his words. Oh this was just the beginning, he had gotten into his head, he had gotten into his body. All that was left was to destroy him slowly from the inside. He was hoping to get the younger male to beg the demon lord to kill him, but if the boy was to take his own life, well that would just be a bonus.
Link gave off a small shiver and watched the demon lord closely as he undid his chains. The boy rubbed his wrists gently, wanting the feeling to come back into them as fast as possible.
The demon lord gave off a small chuckle before handing Link his green tunic back to him. The blond took it and placed it on as quickly as he could, not wanting to be naked for any minute longer.
Link followed Ghirahim to the exit of the cave, not taking his eyes off of him for one second. He didn't want to be taken by surprise again.
The blond squinted gently as the sun reached his eyes, he had been in the darkness for so long that he had to take a moment to adjust to the sunlight. His attention was quickly drawn to a red bird, circling the floating island. Ghirahim gave a small chuckle, before patting the blond on the head, much to his protest.
"I'll be watching hero" He mocked as he slipped back into the cave. The hero watched him disappear before turning his attention to the approaching bird. His face lit up as he was greeted with a dive bomb of a hug from his beloved loftwing.
He gave off a small laugh as he stroked and cuddled his bird. He climbed on top of him and gently nudged him to head back home. He wanted to get home and have a bath then get a good night sleep, he'd deal with people and the world tomorrow.

"Ah...it's like it's washing away my problems" Link sunk into the bath, smiling as he finally felt the dirt wash away off of his skin. He avoided as many people as he could as he practically dived for the bathroom.
The hero spend a best part of 3 hours in the bath, washing himself over and over again, wanting to feel as clean as he could however; this proved to be a difficult task. After violently scrubbing at his skin, with a sigh he admitted defeat, his skin wasn't going to feel clean anytime soon. The hero pulled himself out of the bath, grabbing a towel and heading back to his own room, he didn't care the sun was still up and that it was the afternoon, he was going to sleep for days after everything that happened.
The hero dried his hair before climbing into his bed, snuggling down into his duvet. A small smile crept onto his face as he was glad to be able to snuggle into such a comfy bed after spending a fair few days stuck in a cold cave.
His blue eyes closed and he awaited for the sleep to welcome him.
"He's so cute isn't he?" A female's voice spoke as she passed Link's bedroom. The sound of her voice caused Link to jolted upwards in his bed, his blue eyes wide and locked onto the door. He took a few deep breaths before looking around the room. It may have been a females voice, but the first person to jump into his head was that...that...that demon lord!
Running a hand through his hair, he took another deep breath, laying himself back down and pulling the covers over his face. He grumbled gently before closing his blue eyes once again, hoping nothing was going to interrupt his long awaited sleep this time.
