"One year has gone by since the Hero of Time and his pathetic wife has been
in danger," Said the evil shadow version of Link, Dark Link, "Well it's
time to have some fun. Link has held me back for twenty years now and I
won't let it continue. His pure hearted behavior has come to an end!"
Dark Link stepped out of the Dark World and entered Hyrule. "The World of Dark has also been exiled for too long! I will turn Hyrule into a miserable waste land!"
Dark Link's blood red eyes flared with anger. Instead of a shadow, he now had a complete body. He looked just like Link but his hair was silver. He wore clothes just like Link, but his tunic and boots were black. He wore no hat for he thought it made Link look like a "wimp." His red eyes had no pupils.
"Starting with Link."
The sun shined through the window of Link and Zelda's bedroom. Link slowly opened his eyes. The sunlight woke him every morning. Even if the sun was blocked by gray clouds, he woke up at the same time every morning. One thing had changed about his mornings. His wife, Zelda, always woke up before him but lately she slept in late. He didn't know why. He normally would just let her sleep in, but today was an important day. Zelda had decided to deliver supplies to the country, Nachar. Though, most of the people moved back to their original homes, some people stayed and wanted to help make it a beautiful country.
Link looked at his sleeping wife. He kissed her cheek and gently shook her. "Princess, it's time to get up. We don't want to be late." He said softly. She let out a soft moan and opened her eyes. "I don't feel good." She said.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"Oh, it's just my stomach. Probably something I ate last night." She answered.
"You feel this way every morning here lately." He replied. She got up and slipped on her thin purple silk robe.
"Zelda, you're not well. Sometimes you eat a lot, sometimes the thought of food makes you sick, and you're always tired." He said.
"It's probably nothing." She replied.
"Maybe you should see a doctor." He suggested.
"After we deliver the supplies to Nachar, I promise I'll go see a doctor." She said. He smiled and wrapped his arms around her.
"I have to make sure my princess is alright." He said.
"You do tend to get over-protective." She replied.
"Zel, after everything we've been through, can you blame me?" He asked. She smiled and kissed his lips.
"Why don't you go and eat breakfast. I don't feel well so I'm going to skip. Come back here when you're finished. We'll then discuss our exact plans."
Meanwhile in the library, Tilkate, the young Gerudo woman, looked through many books about Gerudo history. Ever since she found the Sapphire one year ago, she was very interested to see if it belonged to anyone important. She knew there was something about the Sapphire that was not ordinary. She pulled a ladder and climbed up to reach the top shelves. She slightly pulled up the bottom of her light purple spring dress so that she would not trip on it. She scanned the books and found one that said "Gerudo History Volume I" She grabbed the book and climbed back down the ladder. She blew the dust of the book and brushed a few strands of hair out of her face. She sat down and opened the book. Lots of dust flew in her face causing her to cough a little. As she began to read, she heard Han call her name. She turned around to see her friend. "Hey, Tilkate!" He greeted.
"Hello, Han." She greeted back.
"Do you want to go practice some horse back archery?" He asked.
"Sure!" She replied and put the book down.
After Link ate breakfast, he went back to his and Zelda's room. He found her in bed asleep. He sighed and woke her. "Sorry. I got tired and laid down. I guess I fell asleep." She said.
"You should stay home today." He suggested.
"Yeah, I guess you're right." She agreed with a sigh.
"I do not feel comfortable leaving you here alone." He said.
"But I'm not alone. Link, I'll be fine." She replied.
He looked at her and grinned. He knew that he would never win this argument.
"Alright, I'm going to load the supplies on Epona and ride to Nachar. I'll be back soon." He said.
"Alright." She said.
He gave her a good-bye kiss and began to walk out of the room. "Take it easy okay?" He said.
"I will." She replied.
Link walked to the stables and began loading food supplies on Epona. The red mare brushed her nose against Link's arm. Link smiled and patted his horse. "Ready to go to Nachar?" He asked.
"Change of plans." Came a voice from behind.
Link turned around. His mouth dropped and his eyes widened. "It can't be. I thought I destroyed you!" He gasped.
Dark Link stepped out of the shadows and smiled evilly. "You thought wrong. You can never be rid of me. I am you remember?"
"You are nothing like me!" Link shot back.
"You're right. I'm smarter and stronger than you." Dark Link replied.
"Why am I the wielder of the Master Sword and the Triforce of Courage?" Link asked.
Dark Link's red eyes flared with anger like a bright red flame. "I did not come here to talk, Link. I am here to take over!"
"Not while I'm around!" Link replied forming energy in his hand.
"The Triforce cannot save you!" Dark Link said.
Link shot Dark Link with energy, but it only went right through him. Dark Link laughed. "Fool! You cannot defeat me!"
Link pulled his sword from its sheathe. "That won't save you either!" Said Dark Link with an evil laugh. "What will?!" Link said with frustration.
"What makes you think that I would tell you?" Dark Link asked. At that moment, he lunged at Link like a lion to its prey.
Author's Note: I know it was short, but the next chapters will be longer. I intend for this to be my longest stories. My record so far is "Return to Clock Town" with 22,058 words. So are you all wondering what is wrong with Zelda? It is kind of obvious, but for those who have not figured it out, you will at the very end. Oh, and I'm very sorry about the cliffhanger!!! I'll try to hurry with chapter 2!!!!
