14 years later...
"C'mon Luna!" said the always excited teenage Gerudo who loved to participate in the Hero Games.
"Hold up, Tanya!" said the tired blonde Gerudo who had just woken up.
"You shouldn't have come to the party with me last night. Now look at you, all groggy from the punch," said Tanya shaking her head as she waited for Luna.
"What! You drank it too Ms. Peppy!" she said waking up.
"Well you can't hold that much beer, albino Gerudo," said Tanya laughing at Luna's poor retort.
"I could drink you under the table anytime, and then dance circles around that pretty little head of yours, while you would still be laughing at the joke I had told you the night before."
"Oh, why don't you two just shut up! You two losers are going to be late, again, if you don't run," yelled an adult Gerudo nearby.
"Sorry Master Jade," yelled back Tanya and the turned to Luna to say, "I'm not waiting for you again, let's go!" and then ran off toward the coliseum.
As she hurried alongside Tanya, she thought about what had happened last year. Every year the Gerudos held the Hero Games which had several different tournaments. Almost all Gerudos participated, as well as: Gorons, Zoras, Hyrulians, and the ever so rare, free humans. The youngest age that one must be to participate is at least 13. It had been her first time and she had been late. Tanya and she had hurried to start off in the tag-team tournament, which was the only one that had not started because somebody vomited on the arena, because they got first fight jitters. So, when the old Gerudo janitor finished, they got to start.
The first team they had to fight against was a couple of male Hyrulians named Patch and Jak. Patch was perhaps two years older than she was, probably 15 like Tanya, with black hair and smiling crystal-blue eyes and Jak looked like he was probably 18 or so, with brunette hair and dark brown intelligent eyes. When they had seen her, they laughed demanding to call off the hoax. They had been told that they were going to face against two Gerudos, not a human.
And that was true, she was human, but she was raised with Gerudos making her one of them. Everyone was really angry at the two men, and not just because they were insulting, but also because they were men. The Gerudo race consists entirely of red-headed, tall, dark-skinned women. Only once in every 100 years was there a tall, red-haired, dark-skinned male Gerudo born to the female race, and supposedly there was one running around, according to rumor of course.
Most, if not all, Gerudos consider all men, who are not a Gerudo, selfish pigs. Of course there are the few rare men (of a different race) who join the 'Gerudo clan', but that can only be done by defeating the chief of the tribe in combative sparring. She remembered that there was a blonde, Hyrulian, teenage boy that had defeated Nabooru four years ago. She wondered, from time to time, whatever had happened to the boy.
After a bunch of arguing with Patch and Jak, they had gotten on with the fight and had won. Afterward, the lousy men had shaken Tanya's hand, but left without looking at Luna who had her hand out. They were beaten in the third round by a team of a Goron, named Dusty, and a Zora, named Spear. So they did not get to compete for the one-on-one melee tournament. Only those who had been in either the finals or the semi-finals got to compete in that. And you had to sign up before hand and that cost about fifty rupees just for consideration.
As Tanya and she ran through the archway of the coliseum, Luna hoped that the pig-headed Hyrulians would not be here today.
