Chapter 2

Sho had little to do with his parent's affairs, having spent most, and practically all his life by his mother's side, living in his mysterious father's shadow.

The only thing he knew about the great Ganondorf was that he had power, and could do more than any man.

Or so he thought.

However, the "Hero of Time" meant little to him, as would happen to anyone whose father was none other but his greatest rival.

His father would often tell how foolish or how weak Link was (no offence ALG, or LOTV, but this is Ganondorf ), but Sho always strived to see through these heavily biased tales.

He wanted to have his own opinion for a change, as he stood, motionless, dwarfed in his parents' shadows.

But, he wouldn't know how long his dream would be to take form...

***

Mia(that's her name) on the other hand, was enjoying herself greatly. Adrenaline pumped through her veins as she sped through to the forest.

But was even greater was the fact that the horse was Ganondorf's pride and joy.

She laughed agaisnt the calm wind. This was the life, to be a carefree Gerudo girl, with no commitment ties or rules binding her to her husbands will.

***

"Well, what do you mean that the horse is gone? Shouldn't you be guarding the place??" Ganondorf bellowed at a pale stable owner, quivering quite visibily as she blanched in fear.

"But, Mia, I mean...she told me not to follow her… she must have taken it for a ride, or sumthin..' her voice trailed nervously off.

Ganondorf remained silent. Something was afoot with Mia, but he had no time to sort that out. He had a kingdom to maintain, places to conquer, and fear to install.

But something told him to worry. She wasn't the same; she appeared smug, and audacious beyond belief. He sighed; he had no idea what to do.

What was more important: power, or love?

He strode back to his chamber, torn and frustrated, the stable maid staring on in puzzlement. Sho however, went to his own room. Two minds dissolved in silent contemplation.
