Hi everyone this is Zelda. lol...I knew how everyone was complaining about the layout of our story so I decided tp fiz it. ^^ Enjoy now that it is more bearable to read. By the way...stuff in italics is what a character is thinking and when you see this '~*~' it means that some time has passed.
A long time ago in a castle in the green fields of Hyrule.... Zelda and Link, were resting in their bed. Link yawned loudly and Zelda woke up smiling.
"Good morning Link" she replied her eyes sparkling.
He kissed her, "Good morning Zelda, you look beautiful today."
Navi rushed in excitedly. "Link! Link! There's someone outside waiting to see you! I've never seen her before in my life! She's very nice and she's pretty too."
Link rushed outside and Navi followed curiously after him. Zelda sighed, "I can't get a moment alone with Link in this house. Geez a nice pretty girl waiting outside to see Link! If only I'd tell him how much I care about him, maybe all these other girls would lay off!"
When Link and Navi reached the steps of the castle leading outside, a slender girl about Zelda's age was waiting for them. She had long red hair and sky blue eyes outlined with long eyelashes. She wore a short and plain blue dress, and tight-fitting blue boots. When she smiled at them her whole face lit up.
"Hello, you must be Link. I'm Nina," she giggled at Navi, "I saw you staring at me behind a pillar over there little fairy."
Navi grinned sheepishly, "Oh, yeah that was me."
Link looked at her suspiciously, "Navi!" She turned an even darker shade of red.
Link looked at the girl and she smiled, "I guess you're probably wondering why I'm here. The King of Hyrule has asked me to be your partner."
Link's mouth dropped open, "For what?" he asked surprised.
She laughed "Well I'm supposed to help you on your quests. I've been through tons of training and have passed the Gerudo Training Ground with no potions, milk or bottled fairies."
Link's eyes widened in shock "A girl....you..... with no bottled anything?! Whoa! It took me plenty of bottles to get through that!"
She grinned competitively, "I see I have to prove myself to you. I challenge you to Horseback Archery!"
Link grinned back, already realizing he had made an unbeatable friend. She whistled loudly and a stunning white horse came running up the steps. Link carefully pulled out his ocarina and it gently hummed the tune to Epona's Song. He tucked it away and then he heard Epona's faint hooves galloping towards him in the distance. When his faithful horse had arrived he climbed up onto her and he and his new friend galloped off in the distance heading to Gerudo Fortress. They traded battling tips and stories which made them both laugh.
Zelda had been watching the entire scene from her window and every bit of jealousy in her little body bubbled up angrily. If only Link would know she wanted to marry him someday and he shouldn't be riding off with another girl. Zelda's eyes narrowed, "I don't believe this! Link and this pretty little girl already have a better relationship than Link and I ever had!"
Link and Nina had already reached Gerudo Fortress. Link walked up to the Gerudo woman taking Rupees for the Archery and he reached in his pocket.
She winked at him, "This one's on the house Link," she eyed his partner and giggled "Who's your girlfriend, Link?" Link blushed and stole a glance at Nina.
She was blushing too and their eyes met. They both laughed stupidly and Link said "She's my new partner."
The Gerudo lady winked again "Oh RIGGHHT Link I believe you." Link grinned mischievously.
The game was about to begin. Nina mounted her horse and Link waited eagerly. She started and gained speed. Seven arrows flew through the air all hitting bullseyes on the wooden targets. More sailed through the air. When she was finished she dismounted and walked her horse over to Link.
"Good Luck!" she replied
Link's eyes widened, I'm going to need it! he thought. Nina had gotten a perfect score of 2000. He caught a glance of the small crowd that had gathered as Nina had shot. The next few minutes went by in a blur.
Link shot and shot and shot once more, every time hitting bullseyes. When he had finished he also had gotten a perfect score. It was a tie. Link's eyes met Nina's and she smiled shyly.
Zelda had been sulking in her bedroom waiting for Link to return. She finally heard him laughing with Nina at the bottom of the stairs. She slowly walked down the stairs. She rushed into Link's arms. "Oh Link I missed you."
Link looked at her a strange look on his face "Uh, Zelda I was only gone for 25 minutes."
Zelda replied, "It seems like years."
She glared at Nina protectively. "Link who's this?" she asked not taking her eyes off Nina one second.
"A good friend of mine named Nina, she's my partner." Link said proudly looking at Nina hopefully.
Ignoring Zelda's mean looks she smiled at him and winked.
Zelda had been attempting to keep Nina and Link apart for days, but they kept going off together, Bombchu Bowling, Poe hunting, and horse racing. Zelda thought they were getting much too close. She could tell Link really liked Nina a lot, and Nina obviously liked Link back. Now Nina was living in the castle.
Zelda pouted, everyone in Hyrule was gossiping about the beautiful Nina who had stolen Link's heart, and they all knew how kind she was. Nina had met Malon at Lon Lon Ranch, and they had become good friends. Link called them affectionately the Red Crew, because of their glowing red hair. Zelda sighed, today Link and Nina were going to play the Treasure Chest game.
Nina groaned, she had selected the wrong Treasure chest again. Link grinned and took a quick peek in his Lens of Truth when Nina turned her back. He grinned smugly and picked out the small key from the correct chest.
Nina's blue eyes widened and she replied, "Link how do you do that. I thought it was just luck the first five chests, but you must be cheating somehow."
Link smiled, "You're not as stupid as you look!"
Nina giggled and gave him a quick kick in the shin, "Come on now, tell me how you're cheating Link."
Link pulled out his Lens of Truth and Nina's mouth opened in awe.
"Wow Link what is that?"
"It's the Lens of Truth Nina, it can see through things."
Nina spoke again, "That's incredible Link, I wish I had something like that!" She fingered the red lens curiously.
"Try it out," Link urged her. She held it up to her eye and suddenly the treasure chest disappeared and she saw that it contained a small key. She put it down and looked into Link's eyes. He stared into her blue eyes. They felt their faces growing closer.... closer... when suddenly Navi's bright light slowly emerged from Link.
"Hi you guys, oh sorry Nina, Hi guy and girl." Navi corrected herself. Nina drew her face away quickly as did Link.
"I was taking a nap," replied Navi yawning, inside her spirit lifted. How sweet! Nina and Link were falling in love! she thought. She had seen them nearly kiss, and she had seen them grow closer these past days. She had also seen Zelda's jealous face and her menacing looks towards Nina. Nina would never act so childishly, Navi thought. I like Nina a lot better. She's been nice to Zelda even when she was being mean to her. Why doesn't Zelda like Nina? She thought, she's probably one of the sweetest, prettiest, nicest girls in Hyrule! Suddenly it hit her. That's it! She concluded, Zelda knows Nina is an incredible person and she wants Link all to herself! She wouldn't hurt Nina would she? No, I doubt she could if she tried. Nina is as athletic as Link. Zelda could be very mean to her though and Nina is too nice to defend herself.
When Link and Nina arrived to the castle Zelda was waiting at the stairs. She gave Nina an angry look. Nina stared at her feet sadly and tried once again to be nice.
"Hello Princess Zelda, How are you?" she chirped.
"I'm just fine." Zelda replied her face and tone expressionless.
This time Link had seen Zelda's threatening looks. "Zelda why don't you head upstairs, I'll be up in a minute."
Zelda started to ascend the stairs and she stopped when she reached the top and hid behind the railing.
Link looked at Nina and held her small hands in his own. "What's going on with Zelda?" he asked.
Nina sighed, "I wish I knew why she's been so cold to me lately Link."
Link looked worried "I'm going to try to find out." Nina and Link looked at each other and came closer again...closer...Zelda's eyes widened as they kissed softly.
Nina blushed when they finally parted. "I've been having a great time with you these past nights Link," She blushed again, "I think I really like you."
Link smiled, "I know I really like you Nina."
Stopping here for the day. ^^ I dun wanna go through the entire thing today..me to lazt...signing out... ~Zelda
