Disclaimer: I do not own the whole or any part of Legend of Zelda series. Anyone who has told you otherwise is lying. Also, I did some checking, and it would appear that I might have to hand Nintendo rights to everything in this story. But legal issues surrounding fan-made stories are incredibly complicated, so I'll have to find someone who can easily explain it to me. For now, I think I just don't own any concept in this story that's specific to The Legend of Zelda. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Kekuta left Meho in the direction of the coastline, where the Castle was. He'd been there before. It may only take him a couple of days on foot, if he didn't run into any serious complications. The monsters had quieted down to an almost eerie level of silence. Just in case he came up against anything really big, though, he still worked out every day. He'd also taken up dual-wielding the Akaiha and the Metal Bow. The Metal Bow had some sharp edges that would definitely hurt. The Akaiha was just an all-around great sword. He'd come up with a few moves, but they were based more or less on controlled flailing.
Hunting even proved difficult, given how scarce everything seemed to be. Kekuta managed to try an octorok one night, but quickly found that there was no way he could eat it. He wondered if they'd been edible in Old Hyrule, before it got flooded…. Berries, edible leaves, and the like proved much easier to come across than wild game.
Kekuta wasn't surprised that he survived the couple of nights outside. Was there anything to threaten him? He'd built a small shelter the first night, but slept in the open on the second night. Truly, he was alone out here. On the third day, he finally saw New Hyrule Castle on the horizon. He moved as fast as he could, trying to get there before sundown. And it was already the afternoon. He knew that the drawbridge closed every night to keep things out and the people safe, and he was not about to go unprotected tonight. When Kekuta got there, he managed to grab onto the drawbridge just as it started to close, tumbling down the inside.
He got himself a proper meal, and signed into the inn for the night. He thought it was weird that nothing noteworthy happened. Last time he spent a night at an inn, he'd been almost killed by Ganondorf. The only thing he noticed was that being this close to Princess Zelda made his entire left hand throb with medium-level pain. It wasn't unbearable, but it was more than a nuisance.
Kekuta woke up the next morning, and was thankful to have done so. He got some breakfast, and was just enjoying the peace he didn't expect to have here. But after breakfast time, he had something to do. After he finished eating, he planned to head straight to the Castle.
Kekuta managed to find a good vantage point to view the distance between himself and the Castle. What he saw just about scared him off.
"Holy hell!" he almost yelled. "Is there any way to do this? I need to get in and stop the Princess' reign, but I certainly can't get caught by them!"
There were guards everywhere! Very few spots on the field were left uncovered. There was no way he could just sneak by. He was bound to be seen!
And Kekuta got an idea. He took out the Metal Bow and a Metal Arrow. Aiming carefully, he shot one of the guards right in the back of the head! It bounced off his helmet, but the guard seemed convinced that one of the others had conked him while he was turned away. They got into an argument, distracting several more guards in the process. This worked so well, in fact, that Kekuta decided to try it two more times (because he only had two arrows left now). It worked like a charm. Now, he could slip by with just a little bit of difficulty. Finally, he was going to stop Zelda from abusing the powers of the Triforce. Or at least, he hoped he would.
Kekuta simply walked in the front door, just like any citizen would. If anyone had anything to say, they could say it to Zelda's face. Otherwise, she usually didn't care. Because of this, every man, woman, child, and his brother in New Hyrule knew how to get to Princess Zelda's throne room. Kekuta headed straight there. As expected, he saw the Princess on her throne, Sacred Scepter in her right hand, Ganondorf at her side.
Ganondorf stood up, hands on his swords. The Princess looked directly at Kekuta, making her eye contact as obvious as possible. "Young man, what is your name, and what business do you have with me?"
