Lana exits the warp (effect needed) and finds herself standing in the corridor outside Princess Zelda's bedroom. The warp
closes.
Lana knocks on the door.
Lana
(crying)
Zelda?! It's me! Please open up!
In a few seconds, the double-doors unlock and open. Princess Zelda Harkinian is standing there.
Zelda:
Lana, what are YOU doing here?
Lana:
Can I come in?
Zelda:
(as if it's obvious)
Sure!
Lana walks into Zelda's bedroom. Zelda closes the double-doors and locks them.
Zelda:
What's going on? I turned on the TV to see you give your speech, and you haven't shown up there yet.
Lana:
Zelda, I need to talk with you. I - (crying audibly) I don't know who else to turn to.
Zelda:
(soothing)
Okay. Okay, let's sit down and talk.
Lana and Zelda both sit down on Zelda's bed.
Zelda:
Now,...what's your problem, Lana?
Lana doesn't know how to begin. She tries to speak but can't. She sniffs.
Zelda is VERY concerned now.
Zelda:
(whispering)
Lana,...what happened? Why are you crying?
Lana:
(blurting)
Dr. Wily kidnapped my daddy!
Zelda:
(shocked)
Dear Gods.
Zelda immediately hugs Lana. Lana cries on Zelda's shoulder.
Zelda:
When?
Lana:
I don't know! Fifteen minutes ago, maybe!
Zelda:
Okay. Okay.
Lana:
No! No, it's NOT okay! My daddy's gone! I want my daddy!
Zelda places her hands on Lana's shoulders and pushes her away a bit.
Zelda:
Lana, I need you to get a hold of yourself for a moment. Please? Can you do that?
Lana:
(trying to compose herself)
Yeah.
Zelda:
Tell me exactly what happened?
Lana:
I was in my room, on the computer, and I had just read your e-mail and went to your site. My dad came into the room, and he
was pissed that I hadn't gotten dressed for my VNN appearance yet. I shut off my computer, so he wouldn't find out what we
were doing. I had to lie to him. He was so disappointed in me. Then Dr. Wily appeared as a hologram. He told my dad what I
have on my website, and that got him even more mad. Then Wily opened a warp and pulled him into it. I tried to save him, but
I...I couldn't. Wily said I have to find him.
(starts crying harder again)
Oh, Zelda! He knows I lied to him! I've lied to him many times before, but I always got away with it! But this time he caught
me! The last thing we did was fight! We argue a LOT, but this was the first time he made me feel bad! Now he knows what I'm
really like, and he hates me!
Zelda:
I don't think he hates you, Lana.
Lana:
But he's DISAPPOINTED, and now he's gone, and I'm all alone, and I don't know what to do!
Zelda:
You're NEVER alone, Lana. You have ME, and I'll always be here or THERE or whenever YOU are.
Lana:
(weakly)
Thank you.
Zelda:
How do you feel?
Lana:
Hungry.
Zelda:
I'll have Link bring a roast pork sandwich up here.
Lana:
I FEEL hungry. I've already eaten dinner. It's just the feeling your stomach gets when you cry a lot, you know?
Zelda:
Oh.
(short pause)
I bet your throat's dry. Do you want a glass of water?
Lana:
Yeah.
Zelda stands up, walks over to a pitcher, pours the cold water in a glass, walks back over to the bed, and sits down again.
Zelda:
Here's you go.
Lana:
Thank you.
(starts to drink)
Zelda:
I'll be glad to help you, Lana. I'll ask my father. I'm sure he'll let me live with you in Megaland for a while.
Lana:
Thanks, Zelda. You're so good to me. I don't know what I'd do without you.
(gulps down the rest of the water)
Zelda:
More?
Lana:
No, thanks.
(sets the glass down on Zelda's nightstand)
Zelda,...can I stay here with YOU tonight? I don't want to sleep alone in that house - not tonight.
Zelda:
(as if it's obvious)
Of course, Lana. Stay here as long as you need.
Lana and Zelda hug for a moment. Zelda kisses Lana on the lips audibly.
Lana:
Let's go to bed.
Zelda:
Right NOW? It's still pretty early.
Lana:
If I stay awake, I'll just keep crying. If I fall asleep, I can put this day behind me.
Zelda:
Okay.
Lana and Zelda both stand up. Zelda is already wearing her nightgown, so she pulls her bed's blanket and sheet down.
Lana had already taken off her dress before she had left her house. She takes off her shorts and hangs them on top of Zelda's
computer desk's chair. She takes off her shoes and socks and sets them on the floor. She's going to sleep in her sleeveless
shirt and panties.
Lana lies down on the bed.
Zelda walks over to the light switch, turns off the light, and walks back over to the bed.
Lana:
Coming, Zelda?
Zelda kneels down on the carpeted floor.
Zelda:
In a moment. I want to say a prayer to the Goddesses for you first.
(short pause)
Dear Din, Nayru, and Farore, please take care of Lana and give her the power to survive, the wisdom to know what to do, and
the courage to do it. Thank you.
Zelda stands up then lies down next to Lana on the bed.
Short pause.
Lana:
Zelda?
Zelda:
Yeah?
Lana:
Can we pull up the sheet?
Zelda:
Lana, it's hot in here.
Lana:
(upset at herself and what's happened today, very bitter)
I feel cold.
Short pause.
Zelda:
Okay.
Lana and Zelda draw their legs close to their chests, lift the sheet, put their legs under it, and pull the sheet up to their
necks.
Lana:
Thanks.
Zelda:
You're welcome.
Lana:
Hold me.
Zelda puts her arm around Lana and hugs her. Lana draws close to her girlfriend.
Lana:
I love you, Zelda.
Zelda:
I love you, too, Lana.
Lana:
Good night.
Zelda:
Good night.
