YES,YES,YES! I FINALLY got this story updated! HALLELUJAH! Oops,sorry about
that. I couldn't help myself. Anyway, on with the story!
The Prologue
Zelda stood in the garden. It was twilight, and was beginning to be cold. She knew her father would want her in now. Walking up the path, she gazed it was large, the size of a small mansion. She didn't like it at all.
Zelda stepped inside and walked up the stairs to her room. She could hear her father and her aunt, Impa , arguing from inside of the library. What now? she thought. Impa was her mother's sister. After Zelda's mother died, Impa had come to live with them. Zelda loved her aunt, but her father couldn't stand her. They were constantly getting into fights. She wondered what it was over this time.
Zelda sat down on her bed and glanced out the window. It was now dark. She was just about to drift off, when she heard a crash from downstairs. Sitting straight up, Zelda heard two pairs of feet running down the stairs. She heard yelling voices, and then screaming.What was going on?
Zelda froze as her door was pushed open. Impa staggered in, clutching her bleeding side.
"Hide!" Impa whispered.
Zelda dove underneath the bed. Impa grabbed a dagger off of the shelf and slammed it down onto the floor. Then, looking at Zelda with a silent Good luck, she slumped over.
A few minutes later, Zelda could hear the sound of men's voices. Peeking out from underneath her bed she could see two pairs of boots. One of them kicked Impa's lifeless body.
"She must come up here to get the dagger," he commented.
"Good," the other man replied. "That probably means there's no one else in the house. Now let's loot the place."
They left.
Crawling out from under her bed, Zelda went over to her window and escaped her house by way of some vines that grew up the wall. She ran to take refuge in a clump of bushes a few yards away from her home. Presently, the raiders also exited carrying a good deal of her family's things. Then, to Zelda's horror, thy set fire to her home, and then rode off.
Zelda waited until her house was a pile of smoldering ash, and then walked up to its remains. What was she going to do? Then some lights caught her eye she could see the town in the valley below. Her heart froze. I won't have to go down there will I? As much as she hated it, she knew what she had to do. Sighing, she set off for the town.
