Chapter 10

Once Link and Samus arrived in front of Fox's room Link knocked on the door as they heard Fox respond with, "Hold on be there in a minute!"

The soon opened as Fox smiled and said, "Hey Link, Samus what are guys up to?"

"Actually Fox we thought that we would ask you a few questions." Samus replied, crossing her arms.

"What kind of questions?" Fox asked.

"Well, for starters why were you messing around with your front pocket when you came to visit Samus and I after the Melee tournament ended?" Link asked, taking a step forward.

Fox looked sheepishly towards the ground as he put a hand behind his head and answered, "Well, I was messing around with my pocket because I was going to ask Zelda to marry me, but I-."

"Wait you were going to ask Zelda to marry you?" Samus asked, uncrossing her arms.

"Well, I kind of got nervous and instead of asking her to marry I just called it off with her." Fox stated, not to proud of that moment.

"You do realize how hurt she was after you did that don't you, Fox?" Link asked.

"Yes I do and don't think that I didn't have second thoughts about doing that in the first place!" Fox snapped back at the two.

He calmed down though and continued with, "But when I came here and found out that Wolf and Zelda had became friends. Well, I just figured that she was better off without me."

"Yeah, but you sticking your nose into Krystal's business with Ike wasn't all that smart of an idea either. Since Wolf told me that he had to tell Zelda about your past relationship with her." Samus stated, as both Link and herself walked down the hall towards their own room.

Give off a heavy sigh Fox slowly began to close his bedroom door. Only to have stop by someone who asked, "Hey, Fox what's the matter?"

He looked and saw Peach smiling at him as he answered, "Oh, hello Peach it's nothing."

"Come now that sigh didn't seem like it meant nothing to me." Peach replied back, now leaning against his door waiting for an answer.

Fox turned and said, "Well, you see Peach I feel bad about not Zelda about Krystal and I being together before I met her at last years tournament." Peach nodded as he added on, "But now I feel bad that I've been butting into Krystal's relationship with Ike and now I'm not sure what to do to make up for it."

Giggling Peach replied, "Well, that's easy Fox, all you have to do is apologize to Krystal and Zelda and then decide on who you want to be with."

Not getting an answer right away Peach asked, "You do know who want to be with don't you Fox?'

Looking over at the little black box on his dresser Fox nodded as he responded with, "Yes I want to be with Zelda forever."

Speaking of Zelda she was quietly reading a book when another one fell onto the floor from atop one of the many shelves in the library. Zelda lightly sighed as she set her book and walk over to pick up the fallen book. But once she put the book back onto the shelf and turned around a hand came out of nowhere and lifted the Princess with ease up into the air making it hard for her to breathe. Zelda then heard Ganondorf chuckle as he said, "Now Princess there is no one to save this time."

His grip on her throat began to grow stronger, but as she started to black out she heard someone shout, "Hey, I would suggest putting down Zelda right now!"

Ganondorf just ignored the threat as he grinned and squeezed a bit harder unfortunately for the Evil King however, he was instantly knock down onto the ground and when Zelda finally decided to open her eyes she was in the arms of Wofl as he glared at Ganondorf and said, "If you ever try that again I won't just tackle you to ground!"

Ganondorf just let a "Humph!" as he left the library through a dark portal leaving two alone.

She then tried to breathe to thank him, but instead she let a cough as Wolf looked at her and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

Zelda shook her head yes as Wolf sighed with relief and the two left the library to go off to bed.
