"What do you mean we lost the forest temple?" Zelda said worried.
"They lit the torch that calls for aid." The guard said panting.
"Wait a minute." Link said calmly telling the guard to catch his breath. "Explain yourself when you're prepared." Link said.
"Link. Your assistance may be far more necessary than you think." Zelda said nervously.
"Zelda I already told you. I am a last resort I don't want to get involved in things that are not my issues. I don't mean to sound Self-centered. Just the last time I did. I was basically dead if not for you." Link responded.
"You most certainly did not mention this?" Zelda said confused.
"I just don't want you to lose me again. I already almost left you once. I don't want to leave you." Link said nervously.
"Guard. Do you have your statement?" Zelda asked.
"I do."
"They attacked us. We were doing are nightly routine. You know changing of the morning and evening guards when they took us by surprise. It looked like Gerudo Soldiers. We were by all means out numbered."
"Thank you."
"Clef." Zelda called.
"Yes your highness?"
"You are to go to the forest with a messenger also a detachment. You are to keep the peace and be on stealth. You are to make sure the forest itself has not fallen. If it has I will have no choice but to have the Hero of time accompany you."
"You got it your highness."
"Gentleman we have entered a time of war. I want you to close the cities and only allow those who are amongst messengers and royal family members or military members."
All the guards walked out of the room to inform others. Within minutes Zelda and Link were left alone.
"This is for the best Link. You just have to believe me."
"I hope your right Zelda." Link said.
"My master. The forest has been taken under our control. What do you wish be are next move."
"We take the Mountains. Keep all trade to a bare minimum. I want the Hylain's to suffer the wrath of my uncle."
"Understood. The Goron's must be taken by surprise. There leader must sign are treaty in order to follow are orders. He is the Sage of Fire. You must be prepared for men to fall as this will not be easy."
"Understood my Liege."
"You have been dismissed. Do not fail me."
"Link you need to prepare for anything. I think making you the leader of the military may be wise as you have been the only one to fight this evil." Zelda said smiling sadly."
"Zelda you may be right. But lets wait for the status of the knights and see what has been affecting the forest. Lets play wise and make sure its something to worry over first." Link smiled.
She walked up to him.
"Zelda. I never have a chance to talk to you alone anymore. I get being a princess and having the difficulties of royalty." Link said smiling sadly
"Link. You know I love you. I get that in times of stress I am not able to show it."
" I know you are doing you're best Zel."
"Thanks Link."
Link grabbed her slowly.
"What are you doing?" Zelda said.
"Nothing I can't give my girlfriend a hug every once in a while."
She looked into his eyes. The steamy blue eyes made her pause.
"Link. I love you."
"I… I Love you too."
Zelda leaned slowly. Kissing the hero on the lips."
It was one of the most passionate kisses link and Zelda have ever experienced.
"Link.. My quarters tonight would you care to accompany me?" Zelda smiled.
"I would be so honored." Link said as a pity joke.
Link kneeled.
Zelda giggled. "I could have you arrested for making fun of the royal kneel."
All Link could do is laugh nervously.
"Hold me hero. I need you more than ever in this time of chaos."
Link walked behind her and hugged her. While resting his head on her shoulder."
"We will get through this. We always have. In both are life times. I promise. I will fight my breath and soul into this until every last person responsible is dead or in prison."
"I know you will. Gannon didn't stop you from that. I am sure this is just a misunderstanding we will get through this."
Link and Zelda waited for Clef's word. They waited for about three weeks until a full report managed to come through. Link waited as he heard messengers have been heading towards the castle. He knew what was coming he just didn't want to leave the peace of castle town. People knew that the men were to leave entirely. He just didn't want to. He himself had desires of Zelda.
"Link. The messanger is here." One of the guards called.
Link ran to the doors. "Thanks" He said. He grabbed the letter out of the messenger's hand and ran to the meeting room where the sages and Zelda were having their weekly discussion.
Link slammed the door open as he did when he arrived in the castle.
"Zelda. The messenger came by with this!" Link shouting holding Clef's scroll.
"Well boy don't make this suspenseful. Open it." Impa said.
Link did as commanded:
Dear Princess Zelda,
We have arrived to the forest. We made are way to the sage temple where we found Saria being held captive. She was guarded by what looks like a phantom. We were taken by surprise by moblin soldiers and Poe's. We have giant spiders and evil surrounding the temple. We barely had time to write you as we have been fighting an evil that sounds a lot closer to what Link has handled. We call for more troops to be sent to the forest including the hero. I know what you do will be the right choice. But if you haven't done all already I suggest you close the castle to the public as well to make sure that it is safe.
Please send help. I need to return to my men.
Clef.
"That's all princess." Link said acting professional."
"Evil. They mentioned evil. We will send another detachment to the forest. We will pause there movements until we know what their after. I feel like trapping them somewhere along the road will be the smartest thing to do." Impa said.
"So sacrificing men. That's what you want to do?" Zelda said.
"We need to know what we need to protect do we not. Having some information from their leader would be good." Darunia Said.
"So why not pull back and wait to see if the contact us." Ruto said.
"I do not want my people to go into full fledged war. It's only been a short time before last. I will not have men die while we have no idea what there after. Let alone who their commander is. We all know Gannon has perished. We will not believe in fake threats." Zelda said.
" I will go if needed." Link said.
Shocking everyone.
"Link. Don't not yet." Zelda thought.
"If you need some recon done I will go alone. I will find out what there after. I have been through the Gerudo territory. I can get in and out with Nabroou. We will be safe. I can handle it." Link said.
"We know the fortress better than any of you. She is a thief she and I know both and have learned stealth. I can get the information with her help and we can move."
"It's a solid plan." Rauru said.
Link thought back to Zelda. "I need to be involved. I will not be captive again. We will be quick and quite about it."
"Promise me your safety and return Hero?" Zelda said questioning there plan.
"I can promise safety." Link said.
"Proceed then." Zelda said.
"Meeting adjourned. We will recon verse are next move when the Hero has returned."
Everyone vanished.
Other than Link and Nabroou and Zelda."
"Sheik would you like to accompany us?" Link asked smiling.
