Chapter 3
Foolish Serena
Hyrule Castle
The sun had already set by the time she reached the Hyrule castle. Fly as she might, she wouldn't get there in time to go through the market.
*Darn it!* Serena mentally muttered. Now she was gonna fly over the gate, through the gardens, and she'll have to dodge all the guards or she could get in worse trouble and make the people in the castle think bad of the Kokiri.
She soared over the gate, zipped through the shadow-filled marketplace, and maneuvered over and around the guards. Serena giggled at guards as she skimmed through the air just above the helmets.
*Jeez…This place is so easy to get into.* She remarked to herself. *Now where am I supposed to find the princess' bodyguard?*
As if to answer her question, a dark figure leapt from a parapet and seized her, dragging her down toward the ground at an alarming speed. "LET ME GO!" She cried, as they were in mid-fall. She had just enough time to look down (which in her opinion wasn't a pretty sight) before it all went dark.

*What utter fools do we have working here playing with their swords?* Impa complained, *It has already be proven once that our security stinks around here* She smiled at the thought… If only she knew how he was doing. -Sigh-
As she was about to leave to finish making her rounds, a small flickering light in the distance caught her eye. *Could it be…?* As it got closer, she could make out a small figure within the light. *It's a fairy!!* Impa, grinning like a fool, decided to wait until it got closer, close enough for her to catch it.
*Here it comes* she thought. *Let's see if I am still able to surprise an intruder.* She silently watched as it came to a halt as if it had to think of where it wanted to go. As it slowly moved her way, she murmured, "Well its now or never" and leapt off her parapet perch. Arms out-stretched toward the fairy, she glided through the air in a perfect dive. *Just a little further…* she urged herself as she fell quicker. Only a little bit closer…and…she…almost…got her!
The fairy squirmed in her hands as they now fell together. "LET ME GO!!" it ordered. Impa only grinned as the world went totally black.
What do you think happened to Impa and Serena? Stay tune for the next installment of Zelda Reborn.
