...I don't claim to be a great writer, okay? So just keep that in mind and
enjoy the story. ^_^

Chapter 1: Dreams and Reality
Zelda watched in horror as the beast bared its sharp, dripping fangs. Piercing red eyes glared out from under a mass of coarse, dark fur. It charged toward the little girl with insane speed and hurled its incredible bulk at her. She fell to the ground, looking up at Zelda with huge eyes filled with hurt and betrayal. She seemed to be saying, "Why?". Tears poured down her pale face as death took over...
Sunshine flowed in through the open curtains as Zelda opened her blue eyes. She shook her head and blinked. "Just a dream...a horrible nightmare..." she murmured. The horrifying events of her dream were still very vivid in her mind. The beast's red, hatred filled eyes and dripping fangs, the look of fear on the girl's face, the terrifying strength of the monster and the tears of the little girl. Too vivid.

Epona's snow white mane blew in the gentle breeze. Link sat back on the horse, relaxed. Hyrule Castle was straight ahead. Suddenly, Epona reared back and neighed. Shocked, Link snapped back to attention. He looked around, trying to calm the spooked horse, but Epona would not be soothed. She reared back again, knocking Link off and ran into the distance. Link stood up and looked around, confused. There was nothing in sight. He shrugged and called for the horse. To his surprise, she didn't come. "She probably went to Lon Lon Ranch to visit Malon." he convinced himself. He continued on foot to the castle to see Zelda.

Zelda stood in the courtyard. She saw Link approaching. Still shaken from her dream, she walked to him. "Link, I had the strangest dream last night...actually, it was more of a nightmare...there was a fierce monster with red eyes...he attacked a little girl...and killed her...I was right there...and I couldn't move...couldn't save her..."
"It was just a dream. Don't get so worked up..." Link said calmly.
"It all seemed so real...I can still remember every detail." Zelda bit her lip.
Link opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted as a young girl came toward him and Zelda, leading Epona. Her skin was pale and her long, raven black hair and pale blue eyes made her look like a corpse. Link couldn't help but feel unnerved. "Um...thanks for finding my horse." he said, forcing a smile.
The little girl silently handed Link Epona's lead. Link slipped the lead over a pillar so Epona couldn't get away. The horse neighed. She still had a wild look in her eyes.
"What's your name?" Link asked her.
The girl looked up at him. Minutes passed before she answered. Her voice was monotone and chilling. "Gabrielle."
"Okay...Gabrielle. Thanks again for finding Epona."
Gabrielle looked up at Link. Her pale blue eyes seemed to see right through him. Slowly, she turned away and left. Link laughed, nervous laughter, and turned to Zelda. She looked terrified. "What's wrong?" Link asked her.
"That's the little girl from my dream." Zelda's voice trembled.
