Hyrulian
Nights
Scene
16: Link's Final Wish
(Zelda walks over to Link. They hold hands, but both look sad.)
LINK: Zelda, I'm sorry I lied to you about being a
prince.
ZELDA: I know why you did.
LINK: Well, I guess... this... is goodbye? (Farore pokes her head around the corner
shocked at what she is hearing.)
ZELDA: Oh, that stupid law. This isn't fair... I love you.
FARORE: (Wipes away a tear) Link, no problem. You've still got one wish left. Just say the word and you're a prince again.
LINK: But Farore, what about your freedom?
FARORE: Hey, it's only an eternity of
servitude. This is love. (She leans down next to Zelda.) Link, you're not gonna find another girl
like her in a million years. Believe
me, I know. I've seen.
LINK: Zelda, I do love you, but I've got to stop
pretending to be something I'm not.
ZELDA: I understand.
(They
take one final look into each other's eyes, then Link turns to Farore.)
LINK: Farore, I wish for your freedom.
FARORE: One bona fide prince pedigree coming
up. I... what?
LINK: (He holds the Triforce up to Farore.) Farore, you're free!
(A
transformation scene ensues, in which the shackles fall off Farore's wrists,
and the Triforce falls uselessly to the ground. She picks it up and looks at it.)
FARORE: (She can't believe it.) Heh, heh. I'm free. I'm free! (She hands the Triforce to Link.) Quick, quick, wish for something
outrageous. Say "I want Lake
Hylia." Wish for Lake Hylia! Try that!
LINK: I wish for Lake Hylia.
FARORE: No way!! (Laughs hysterically and bounces around the balcony like a pinball.) Oh does that feel good! I'm free! I'm free at last! I'm hittin'
the road. I'm off to see the
world! I...
(She
is packing a suitcase, but looks down and sees Link looking very sad.)
LINK: Farore, I'm... I'm gonna miss you.
FARORE: Me too, Link. No matter what anybody says, you'll always be a prince to me.
(They
hug. The King steps forward.)
KING: That's right. You've certainly proved your worth as far as I'm concerned. It's that law that's the problem.
ZELDA: Father?
KING: Well, am I king or am I king? From this day forth, the princess shall
marry whomever she deems worthy.
ZELDA: (She smiles widely and runs into Link's
arms.) Him! I choose... I choose you, Linkachu!
LINK: Ha, ha. Call me Link.
(They
are about to kiss when Farore's hands pull everybody together. Farore is decked out in a Hawaiian shirt
with golf clubs and a Mario hat.)
FARORE: Oh, all of ya. Come over here. Big group
hug! Mind if I kiss the faerie? (She kisses Navi, and coughs.) Ooh, wings! Well, I can't do any more damage around this popsicle stand. I'm outta here! Bye, bye, you two crazy lovebirds. Hey, Rug man, ciao! I'm
history! No, I'm mythology! No, I don't care what I am... I'm free!
(Farore
flies up into the blue sky leaving a trail of sparkles behind her. They cut to fireworks exploding over a
nightscape. We tilt down and see Link
and Zelda flying on Carpet.)
LINK: (singing) A whole new world
ZELDA: A whole new life
BOTH: (with off-camera chorus) For you and me!
CHORUS: A whole new world!
(They
fly off into the moonlight, and after they have disappeared, the moon turns and
reveals Farore's laughing face. Suddenly, the film is grabbed "off the projector", Farore lifts it up
and looks out at the audience.)
FARORE: Made ya look!
(Drops
the film back to normal, with the normal moon. Fade to black.)
The End
