Chapter 16
At the Hyrule Palace…
Zelda paced through the hallway of the castle deep in thought. She was thinking of the various things that Link had explained to her and how disappointed she had been that he had to leave, and how much she loved kissing him. She had never done anything like that before and it made her feel…Well she didn't know how it made her feel. Link wasn't the first boy she had kissed; but Link was defiantly the best kiss she had ever had.
A smile touched Zelda's Lips and she thought about how good the kiss was, then her mind grew more serious. I wonder if Link was able to find the Master Sword, I believe that was the mystical sword I saw in my dream, but I'm not sure.
Zelda continued her walk of the castle, aimlessly passing by servants whom kept the castle running. She nodded to them as they bowed or curtsied, but she was to enthralled in her own thoughts to really pay attention to them.
After walking around for a few more minutes she began to smell smoke, but it wasn't coming from the castle, but form a near by open window. Suddenly an Alarm went off near by and her comm. unit went off with an automated message.
"Warning, Warning, near by fire requires all personal to proceed to their shelter areas," A computerized voiced said.
At that moment a palace guard came running up behind her and practically hit her. He was out of breath as he had just sprinted to find her, he said, "Your highness, but there is a problem. Impa is missing, and Kakariko is afire, and there are strange ghosts floating in the graveyard near Kakariko my lady. Please come with me.
"Is the fourth seal broken?" Zelda inquired in a quivering voice. No, that couldn't be the southern seal hasn't been broken... Oh no poor Impa! No Damn it! Your people are more important than your friends! Hundreds may have died in a single day! Oh god, what's going to happen to Hyrule!…
"I'm afraid that it is the fifth seal we just received word that the fourth seal was also broken a few hours ago, however no survivors were found. Great sand storms now block the Desert Colossus from being accessed. We have no idea where the last seal is so we must put you into protective custody," The guard explained, and tried to pull her toward the secret tunnel system that had been built after the castle had been moved from its original location near the Elite Knights base.
"Umm, where's my Father?" Zelda asked.
"He's already gone to the secure location your highness and he requests your presence there immediately,"
"Alright let's go quickly," Zelda replied and watched as the guard started toward the area where the area where the tunnel to the Royal Shelter was.

The general was making his way back toward the base, slowly but surely. It had been four hours since his HU had broken down and he was exhausted.
His feet thumped below him as he continued his trudge toward the base. His other companion had trailed off an hour before, he was exhausted so the General had left his solider to rest with the promise of coming back for him.
The night was cool, but there was trouble in the air. Little did he know as he closed in on the base, finally able to see the blinking transmitter tower, he was being closed in apon also…
********************************************************************************************
Link awoke with a start as ice cold water splashed his face. His ankle hurt, but not nearly as much as his head did. He was on the cold stone floor, and felt like crap. The room was very dimly lit and he couldn't see anything clearly.
Link put a hand out experimentally to see if it could support his weight, it did, so he slowly pushed himself up into a sitting position. His body protested the entire way, but he managed to get into a sitting position against the wall behind him.
Link tried to focus a bit more by shaking his head. His head immediately gave him a big F You, and the pain hit him ten times harder. "Owww!" Link groaned and whimpered.
"Hoot! You've got to buck up kid! That fall was only 10 meters!" The Owl replied to Links wining. "Would you like some cheese with your wine? Hoo Hoo!" The Owl said laughing in his owlish way.
"Very funny you jack ass! You can't get hurt, I CAN!" Link replied sarcastically, scowling at the Owl with daggers in his eyes.
"Hoo, I don't think I look like a donkey thank you!" the Owl replied laughing again.
"Ha ha ha…" Link replied as he pulled himself up the wall he was on. His balance was off, even with both feet on the ground. After a few seconds his brain said F You again.
"Woww wowww wow," Link said as he fell over and hit the hard stone floor face first.
The Owl was practically on the floor laughing…well that is if he wasn't an owl, nor a spirit for that matter.
Link lay there for a second, waiting for the pain of the fall to subside. He felt something odd under his hand. It was as if a brick in the ground was out of place, and metallic. It felt like a switch, so he pressed into it with his right hand, and it went down.
Suddenly he heard rock moving, and light started to pour into the room. Luckily Link was on the ground, so he turned his head and closed his eyes. The light was coming from his right. After a few seconds Links eyes adjusted to the light and he looked to his right through the new opening.
Link was not prepared for what he saw before him, it was a chamber with a raised platform, with six symbols around it. Pure light was coming from the center, around what looked like a sword in the platform.
Link looked over to the Owl and said, "Is that the Master sword?"
"Yes it is, can't you feel its power? It's calling to you Link…" the Owl said and trailed off.
Link got up, pain forgotten, sheer determination driving him. He stepped through the doorway, a doorway that would lead to his destiny…
