Thunder

By GreatAngemon

Boom…

"Link, I'm scared," Zelda said, holding tighter to Link as they rode through the forest. "That thunder seems to be getting closer."

"Don't worry Zel," Link said for the thousandth time. "It hardly ever rains in the forest, and when it does, it's never anything bad." As soon as he finished talking it started raining, and they were drenched in seconds.

"Can we go hide in the forest temple?" Zelda asked. "I don't want to catch a cold."

"I guess so," Link agreed, and he turned so that Epona was moving toward the forest temple. When they arrived, Link pulled out his hookshot. Putting his arm around Zelda's waist, he aimed the weapon at the branch above the balcony and fired.

The chain shot out and pulled Link and Zelda to the top. They walked inside and sat down just inside the entrance. "I don't like being back here," Link said. "It reminds me of Phantom Ganon."

"It's alright," Zelda said, pulling his hand into hers. "I'll protect you." Link laughed.

"Is this before you get kidnapped," he joked, "Or after?"

"Before," Zelda said. "I'm Sheik before then, remember?"

"There are a lot worse places to have to shelter from rain," Zelda said.

"Yeah," Link said, "And there are a lot worse people to have to be sheltered with."

Zelda smiled and nodded.

Booom...

"I still wish it wasn't raining," Zelda said.
