Well here's chapter 6, the only thing left is an epilogue. Exdeamon, is this anything close to what you thought was going to happen?
Midna's Quest
Chapter 6
Zelda was right when she said that the trip to the cliff with the cave on it would take close to a day. Unfortunately Midna fell asleep in the shadow in the carriage before it could arrive at their destination.
When Caine arrived he slowly got off the carriage and drew his sword and shield. As he brought the boar along, Midna did not awaken, and so he didn't even know she was there.
"Say goodbye to the Monster of Dreams, Hyrule. And hello new king of Hyrule." Caine said as he started the climb up and into the cave that was located on the cliff, to carry out his fiendish plan to kill the monster and rule Hyrule.
Midna woke up ten minutes later yawning as she checked her surroundings and when she looked up front she saw that Caine was missing! She quickly stepped out of the carriage and saw that it was located near the edge of a cliff, and to her right she saw a cave and realized that they must have arrived. She ran back to the carriage and grabbed the sword and wooden shield out of the shadow she hid in, determined to get in there before Caine would kill it, since she had overheard him and his plans to take over Hyrule.
Midna slowly snuck into the cave as she looked around and was surprised to see how dark it was. Even being a native of the Twilight Realm and therefore accustomed to the darkness, she could only see 18 inches in front of her face.
Then she saw the scaly back and tail of a strange creature she's never seen before. It had to be the Monster of Dreams.
She decided to sneak up on it and then stab it in the back. It would be quick and easy. The cave at first seemed normal enough, the only weird thing was she could hear a crunching sound, but Midna made nothing of it. When Midna was just 8 inches away suddenly she tripped on something which she identified half a second later as Caine's shield. Unfortunately it caught the attention of The Monster of Dreams, and as it turned around and saw Midna, she saw what that crunching noise was: the Monster of Dreams had something in its mouth that it was eating. Something that Midna could easily identify as Caine's arm.
The monster had sharp fangs, a big head with human-like eyes, a long neck which was as long as a big snake, and a body like a dragon. It also had wings on its back that resembled the bats in the Faron woods, but was 5 times the regular size. Its claws looked like the pointy end of diamonds, and were probably as sharp as a new sword, however its arms were really short, and probably about a foot long. You'd have to be stupid to get close enough to receive a slash of its claws.
'That must have been how it got Caine.' Midna thought to herself. It's legs were almost as long as it's neck and resembled animals like a rabbit or kangaroo so when it would move it's bones structure forced it to hop (A/N: Think of it like a Jabberwocky.), and in ten minutes it was able to kill Caine, eat the boar and eat him too, and now it had it's sights set on Midna.
It threw its head forward at Midna, but she quickly put her wooden shield up. However, the monster punched a hole through it, making it useless. The Monster threw its head at Midna again, and she drew her sword out and went to strike it. But before she could it moved its long neck and head causing Midna to miss, throwing her off balance as the monster threw its neck against Midna. The force of the impact caused Mdina to slam against the cave wall, knocking the sword out of her hands.
Every time she went to get it, the monster would throw its head out covering it and threatened to devour her if she would try to come near it.
Midna grew tired of this and decided to settle this with magic. She was able to create a magic blast and threw it at the monster and a screen of dust and shattered rock filled the area. However, once the dust cleared, Midna saw that the creature was still standing unharmed. Midna just stood there speechless as she figured out that it had to be impervious to magic.
Midna didn't want to admit it, but Zelda, Renado, and even Barnes was right, she couldn't defeat this thing, and was forced to retreat. However, the Monster of Dreams was still hungry and followed her.
When Midna was out of the cave, she quickly opened up a portal in the sky, but before she could warp herself the Monster of Dreams came flying out of the cave and actually slashed at Midna's face with its claw, drawing a few drops of blood. The sudden impact cause Midna to stumble back until she fell against a rock that was just a few inches away from the edge of the cliff. The Monster of Dreams slowly started moving in for the kill.
'So this is it.' Midna thought to herself. 'This is how I die. I guess Link can now live the life he always wanted with Ilia now that I'm out of the picture. If that is what he always wanted, then I guess I'm happy for him, both of them.'
The final thing that convinced Midna that she was dying was that she could swear she saw an angel coming down to her from the ledge a few yards above the cliff, coming down to take her to heaven. "Well Link, at least I'll always be able to keep an eye on you from heaven. I'll keep a constant watch, and who knows, maybe I'll become a spirit that will wonder around earth and in a way I'll always be with you." She mumbled.
As the angel got closer Midna saw it actually had a sword in its hand, and not just any sword, the master sword, which Midna remember she made Link keep just incase she ever wanted to turn him into a wolf. It was an angel- Midna's own personal angel, it was Link and he was coming down there ready to fight this monster.
The Monster was so preoccupied with getting rid of Midna that it didn't even noticed Link coming down until he landed on it and slammed his sword in it head. The Monster shrieked and started to run around on the cliff, but not before Link tore the master sword right back out. The Monster, now blinded with pain, ran right off the cliff, and as it's wings failed it, it slowly fell to it's death.
However Link didn't take notice as he was too busy checking Midna."Are you alright? Please say something!" Link begged desperately.
"Link? I told you to wait for me at the house, but thanks for coming. I owe you my life." Midna said a little weakly. "Again." She added with a smile.
"Midna what were you thinking?! When you were going to actually try to kill this thing, did you even think that you might die and then I would have lost you forever?!" Link said. He was obviously upset with Midna's decision to wonder off.
"I was thinking that you and Ilia made a cute couple, and I knew why. It was because you were both human and you could do all the stuff that normal couples do together. Including that you could be seen in public, which is something you and I could never do. You two probably wouldn't get interrupted by the kids that much either, because they knew you two were together and would want some time alone to be with each other. "So I thought that if I was beautiful young woman like I used to be instead of a horrifying, disgusting, repulsive imp, then maybe I could fill in Ilia's spot and be the women you've always wanted." Midna said, feeling sorry for worrying Link and just informing him that she did it to make him happy.
"Midna, you already are the woman that I always wanted and I wouldn't leave you for anyone." Link said as he stared into Midna's eyes."You mean it?" Midna asked as her spirits started to rise.
"Every word of it." Link reassured her. "Come on Midna, let's go home. I have Epona back at the ledge." "Anything you say, Link." Midna replied as they turned away and left the ledge.
As soon as they started to walk away they saw a bright light coming from the cliff and they covered there eyes. When it dimmed a bit they lowered their hands to see the Monster of Dreams float up to them. He was glowing like the spirits of the springs.
"I have been defeated and as you might know, I am obligated to grant any wish to the person who slays me." The Monster said with a deep voice. Midna stepped forward.
"I'd would like nothing more then to be turned back into my true-" however Midna was interrupted by the monster.
"No. Not you. You were not the one to kill me. I can only grant a wish to the person that slays me, which is him over there." The Monster informed Midna and he pointed to Link.
"I think I know exactly what I want." Link said with a smile on his face.
"Link what are you going to wish for?" Midna asked curiously.
"You'll see Midna. Right now it's a surprise." Link told her with Midna's trademark grin on his face as he stepped forward to the Monster and whispered to it.
"Are you sure? You do know that if I grant that wish, there is no going back." the Monster asked making sure Link understood what he was wishing for.
"I aware of that, and trust me I'm very sure, she's worth it." Link told the monster.
"Very well then." The monster said and a sphere of light completely engulfed Link, blocking Midna's view of him, while the Monster flew up to the sky never to be seen again.
Once the sphere cleared, Midna could now see Link, and she couldn't believe what she saw and her jaw dropped. It was Link; he was about a third his size and was just as tall as Midna if not smaller. His skin looked bluish, and his green tunic look like it was part of his skin, or fur, or whatever it really was, but he still had a hat covering his head. Link had become an imp, just like Midna.
"What? Say something! Am I so repulsive you have no words left?" Link asked Midna who was still in shock.
"Link...why?" was all Midna could manage to say.
"Even if you were a human Midna, that wouldn't really change anything. I would still be pulled away from you by the villagers and other people too. I'm the chosen hero, Midna. Not only do people want to congratulate me and throw parties honoring me but they want me to fix their problems for them too rather than handling it themselves. I'd say we would have about eight hours average to spend together a week. However you and me can be together 24/7 if I was force to hide from the public just like you, and now that I'm an imp, there's no doubt that we're even more of a perfect match. The only two imps in the world together forever. That's why I made my decision. Please don't be mad." Link said, explaining his reasoning.
"Oh Link, I'm too happy to be mad!" Midna said as she pulled the imp Link into the passionate kiss she had wanted to have with him two days ago, and neither of them wanted to break it.
When they finally did break, they decided to savor this moment by just staring at each other eye's and they probably would have done it all day long, if they weren't anxious to get back home and start their new life as imps.
"Now for this to work Midna, you're going to have to teach me how to hide in the shadows and float like you do." Link told her as they started to walk hand in hand.
"Well I'm not exactly sure how I do it, it just comes natural. But I'll see what I can do." Midna said playfully while they continued to walk hand in hand. Then Link turned around to face her and grabbed her other hand in his as she stared at his face eagerly waiting to hear what he had to say.
"Hey Midna."
"Yes Link?"
"Happy anniversary."
"Happy anniversary, Link." Midna said as her and Link went for another kiss, easily being the happiest moment of both of their lives.
