Author's Notes: Here's where things get interesting... hee hee... I'll just let you think about that ^U^
Chapter 10: Link
I couldn't believe all that happened today. First I was depressed, now I'm giddy with joy. I've finally told her, after 2 weeks. No more secrets to hide. She took it well, very well. I'm glad she did 'cause I know I couldn't bear to see her upset. Then that strange thing with Saria happened. I never knew she was so vulnerable. I also wish I had been there for her through all of this. I was being so selfish, wallowing in self-pity, not even thinking that maybe Saria was sad too. I've never seen her cry either, so it was especially awkward.
I've been having weird dreams lately. I'm standing in a temple, like so many that I've seen before, and in front of me looks like a puzzle for me to solve. Simple: do the puzzle, the door opens. But it's not a door that I see, it's metal bars, like a prison. The silhouette of a person is barely visible inside. "So this is a new kind of trick," I think to myself. The gears in my mind start to try and work this out, but my energy is being drained… it's so hard to think…
"LINK!"
What was that?! Or should I say: WHO was that?
"Zelda?"
"Link… Save yourself! You'll die here!"
"But… Zelda, why are you here? How can you be in two places at once?"
"That's not me! It's an image, a ghost of sorts. I'm HERE!" I see her grip the bars and shake them. But I can't hear her very well anymore, because 3 booming voices say in unison:
"If you solve the puzzle, she lives. Run, chosen one, and you will find us. Run to the eyes as blue as time…"
At the last second, Zelda screams, "Time is the key!"
Then I wake up in a cold sweat, at the same time as Zelda does.
End of chapter notes: Sorry for another shortie... Can't help it sometimes, I just end a chapter when it seems like I should end the chapter.
