Marth woke up, feeling very dizzy. "Uhn…Where am I?" He whispered to himself, seeing that he was not in the stadium's hospital wing, and not back at his hotel room, but in a dark room with no windows, the walls seemed to be made of dirt. "A…cave? What am I doing here…?" He wondered, beginning to sit up. He jerked suddenly, feeling hard pain in his stomach and leg.
Peach's words came flooding into his mind, "He couldn't make it. Apparently the wound you gave him this afternoon went straight through his bone instead of just his skin, which takes longer to heal than just sliced skin, babe."
Marth nodded to himself, "That's right…" He remembered. He didn't like the thought of having an arrow pushed through his thighbone, and slicing up a few ribs, but apparently it had happened. He tried to sit up slowly…but suddenly some sort of invisible force made him bend his back to lie back down. "Ugh!" He struggled against whatever it was.
"I suggest you don't fight against it…you could end up breaking your back." Came a cold voice. So he wasn't alone, after all…
Marth finally relaxed and laid down like he was supposed to, taking the advice from the stranger into deep consideration.
"Stunning performance yesterday…" The voice said, Marth could hear it getting closer. It sounded like a woman's voice, though he could not tell who.
"What do you mean? I lost…" Marth said, the invisible force still upon him, now putting great stress on his back, as if trying to make him bend backward and snap in half.
"You lost the battle, but you've won the Princess's heart." The woman's cold voice said.
"Princess Peach? She loves me…And I'm in love with her…" Marth said, but then thought, 'I suppose…'
"And yet you insist to perform in such a way to win another's heart." The cold voice said.
"I have no idea what you're talking about…" Marth said innocently. Suddenly a bright flame came to life, just above his head, nothing to suspend it at all. It was merely floating. Marth looked over and saw the profile of a woman, golden ringlets shining against the fire light.
Suddenly the figure turned to him, slamming her fists down upon the metal bed on which Marth lay, "WHY DO YOU DO THESE THINGS!?" Princess Zelda shouted, her face finally coming within' view.
Marth felt as though he were in court…and highly confused. "What?" He asked Zelda, taken by surprise at both the fact that Princess Zelda had him locked in a chamber with only her, and that it was actually her who was doing it, instead of Ganondorf or some other evil villain who wanted revenge for no good reason.
"You are so charming…so graceful in all your moves…so perfect!" She spat the last word. She began pacing, as though she'd gone insane.
"Princess…are you alright?" He asked her, wondering what in heavens he'd done wrong THIS time.
"I AM TAKEN BY ANOTHER AND YET YOU'LL STOP AT NOTHING TO GET ME TO LOVE YOU!!!!" Zelda screamed suddenly at him.
"Princess! Please, calm down! I don't know what you're talking about! I know that you are in love with Link, I know that he is in love with you, but what are you tormenting me for?! I am in love with Princess Peach and that's fine…I'm not trying to get you to love me! I never have!" Suddenly the invisible force was lifted from Marth's back, and he immediately sat up, not taking notice to the pain in his injuries.
Zelda put her fingers on her forehead, rocking back and forth on her high heels, as though deep in thought, but she began shaking as though about to cry.
"Princess, I intend nothing but to make you and Link happy. I have been trying to make Link forget what I did that first day so you two would be peacefully in love. I saw what he did to you that night at the Fountain of Dreams…I understand he was trying to force you into something you didn't want to. Zelda, just believe me…trust me." Marth said soothingly. He took her hands, feeling that that would only be the best to comfort her and make her understand, but it only had the same effect as last time.
"Marth…" Zelda said, shaking her head, a few tears dripping from her eyes. She looked sorrowfully into his eyes, then pressed her lips to his.
Marth couldn't respond. The only thing he wanted was to make sure Link didn't walk in this time…
Marth woke up once more. He sat up abruptly, no invisible force holding him back this time. 'Was it all a dream? What was that about…' He asked himself. He brushed it away after a moment. 'It was nothing but a dream…' he thought. Suddenly all the pain and aches from yesterday's tournament began leaking through to his brain. "Ugh!" He groaned, feeling his back.
"Marth? Marthbabe? MARTH!!!!!" Came Peach's tired voice.
Marth looked over at her and smiled. "Peach…"
Peach nearly tackled him off his hospital bed trying to hug him. "Oh thank heavens, you're alright!! I was so worried about you!" She said airily, tears streaming down her face again. Suddenly she began smothering Marth's face with kisses.
"Peach…please. OUCH!" He yelped as Peach sat down on his leg, right where the wound used to be. He was finally able to pry the ecstatic Peach off of him.
"Oh! Oh…I'm sorry…I'm just so glad you're alright." Peach sighed, sitting on the edge of Marth's bed, running her hand through his hair.
Marth put his finger to Peach's mouth to quiet her. He gazed at her, feeling almost as though he was lost in space looking through her large beautiful eyes. He took her hands in his and pulled her forward, kissing her lips gently. He put his arms around her waist and pulled her on top of him, regardless of the pain…this was all worthwhile.
But…all he could think about…was Zelda from his dream…

Teehee, I ended it sort of like the last chapter, with the little ending sentence…but that's alright, right? I hope this chappy wasn't too boring for you guys =). I tried to make it as interesting as possible with the dream and junk…believe it or not (you'll probably believe it) I was going to make it Ganondorf in the dream where he taunts Marth, telling him he's won Zelda's heart, and making Marth believe that so that Marth can like Zelda, then Ganondorf was going to kill Zelda to break Link's heart, (Because it's probably just about as bad as killing him) And breaking Marth's heart as well, to gain revenge on the both of them…..but that wasn't too much of a story and it would've ended too soon……AND YOU GUYS DON'T WANT THAAAAAAAAAAAT DO YOU!?!……………..thought not =D=D Well, review please :) I'm moving tomorrow…..*Double deep sigh* Goodbye all you faithful reviewers……I LOVE YOU GUYS! YOU'RE ALL TOO SWEET TO MEEEEEEE!!!!
