Chapter 7: the butler a rescuer
"Thank you Shadow for bringing her." I heard a mans voice say as I started to come to. I looked around to see that I was chained to the wall.
"That loyal Butler of yours can withstand over two hundred years of being chained up, let's see how you do, little lady." A male said tauntingly.
"Zant! Let her go!" I heard a girls voice next to me. I turned and saw a red headed woman. She was glaring at Zant with red eyes.
"Shut up Twilight princess!" Zant said. He sounded insane. He grabbed her by the hair and started dragging her somewhere.
"You can kill me Zant but there are others even more powerful than me that can kill you." She said before breaking free and touching my forehead. She was then dragged off completely by Zant. I felt warmth spread through my body.
"Find your light." I heard the woman's voice say. I saw the area light up around me. I closed my eyes and tried to get it to die down before Zant or even that bloody shadow notices.
I fell asleep because of exhaustion.
"I'm still in the dress..." I thought before I completely blacked out.
Links point of view:
Ai was missing.
"Her father warned me but he's still living." I thought as he called me in.
"Link go find her... It's.. It's another business ran by a man named Zant, he over took the company from Midna, also known as the twilight princess." Ai's father told me.
"Yes sir." I said bowing and leaving the room.
"Link go save her." Saria told me sadly Vaati was trying to keep her calm.
"Make sure the lady isn't hurt.." He said. He frowned not knowing who could've done such a thing. I nodded and left.
"You have just unleashed the wolf Zant be prepared for hell." I thought before transforming into a wolf. I ran following Ai's scent. It led to the dungeon of a very decrepit castle.
"So this is where my lady is." I thought sneaking into the area and taking down the monsters for guards as I went around trying to find Ai.
"So the loyal hound has come to steal away the girl?" A man asked. He was wearing a helmet that resembled a fish. I growled at him before changing into a human form.
"You took my lady where is she?" I asked.
He started giggling like a teenage girl, except more insane.
"She's asleep somewhere, beat me then you can get her mutt." He taunted. We began fighting we slashed and stabbed at each other. I ended the fight by stabbing him through the neck.
"Well done butler." Zant said mockingly as he smiled before disappearing. I started running through the manor as a wolf, following her scent. I found a basement and passed a dead body of a woman with fiery red hair.
"That must be Midna." I thought as I padded down a hall through cells.
I found Ai in a cell chained up asleep. I opened the cell door and went over to her. I changed into a human.
"She's hurt.." I thought smelling blood coming off her arms.
"Ai.." I called softly. Her eyes started fluttering. Upon them opening I noticed that her eyes were a lighter color of their regular deep topaz.
"Link?" She asked tiredly. It almost broke my heart to hear her that tired.
"So the loyal mutt has come for her." I heard a male voice sneer.
"Shadow..." Ai muttered. I stood up and blocked an attack that was made to my side before retaliating. The man looked like an even worse version of Zant. I finished him off the same way.
"Ai?" I asked when I heard something drop suddenly. I turned and saw her laying on the ground breathing shallowly.
I went over to her and undid the shackles on her wrist and neck.
"Ai... Please stay with me." I told her. Her eyes fluttered again. I held her close and started to hurry back to the manor. Impa was waiting for us to come back.
"Hmm... You should stay with her tonight Link... And stop trying to be mysterious." Impa told me smiling. I blinked at her acting confused. I nodded.
"Alright." I told her before she left. I looked at Ai as she slept for a moment than joined her.
She moved in her sleep and cuddled up to me. I closed my eyes and fell asleep next to her.
