Authors Notes: Hey all. I'm the author of this story (no duh) and just so
you all know, Rucco is the neice of the Professer,you know, the old guy
that works at the lab. I will specify this in this chapter. And, also,
when I put ~*~*~*~*~ That means a long time lapse, but when I put -*- it
means just a short time. Just so you know. Anyway, read on people. Hope
you enjoy. Laterz.
Running as fast as she can, Nayru tries to escape the man with glowing eyes and a long, flowing cape. He nears, and she just keeps running. She trips on a stump and turns around to face the man, though she's on the ground. She glares and yells,
"Why are you following me? What buisness do you have with me? What horrid thing have I done to you?" The man just laughs a somewhat familiar laugh.
"Heh heh heh...foolish girl. You think you can escape me, but you will never be able to. Your father may have defeated me, but I will not be defeated again." He snaps his fingers and a lance appears in his hand. He pulls back a little, ready to run the giant weapon through Nayru, but then she wakes up, out of breath, to see Gondru standing over her.
"Are you okay, m'lady? You were screaming in your sleep." Nayru tries to catch her breath, looking around, seeing that she's in her room. She sighs with relief and replies,
"It's nothing, Gondru, just another dream. I wish I knew what it all meant." Gondru sits on the bed next to Nayru and sighs heavily, looking as if he had the weight of the whole world on his shoulders. "Is something wrong?" Gondru looks over at the young queen and shakes his head.
"Nothing. We'll go to Rucco tomorrow okay? Her crazy uncle was a dream interperter, maybe she has the same gift. I hope anyway. In the mean time, you get some sleep." Nayru nods.
"Alright. Good night, Gondru." She closes her eyes once again and falls asleep. Gondru stays after she falls asleep though, staring at her with a caring experssion. Brushing some strands of hair away from her face, he smiles, gets up, and leaves her room.

"Come on! I know Cujori is fast, but Epona was my dad's horse was she not? She's supposed to be the fastest in the land." Nayru yells as she looks back to see Gondru trailing behind on a race towards Lake Hylia. Gondru tries to push the horse a little more.
"You know how old this horse is, Nayru!" He yells up to her. "I'm afraid if I push it any more it'll collapse right here!" Nayru laughs and slows down a little bit, Gondru doing the same, until they're both at a gentle trot. They speed up once again, though, as they near the fences, jumping over them, and riding through to the lake. They pull their horses up along side the lab and stop them, tying them up to graze while they go inside.

"Hmmm, I see. Let me think about this and I'll get back to you in about half an hour. You can wait here if you like." Rucco, a fine, red-headed woman that runs the lab now, has just heard the dream that Nayru has been having. She walks back into her little office that she built onto the lab, and shuts the door behind her. Nayru and Gondru go and sit on some chairs she has out in the lab.
"It's odd, you'd think her lab would be inside the office, instead it's outside. Odd lady." Gondru randomly says after Rucco is out of the room. Nayru laughs a bit and shrugs.
"What do you expect, it's the Professor's neice. He was a bit off hisself. Anyway, just a little bit longer and we'll get to kn--" Suddenly, Rucco bursts through the door and says urgently, interrupting Nayru.
"What clothes were you wearing in the dream?" Nayru cocks her eyebrow and replies,
"I don't know. I wasn't paying attention to my clothing, I was more paying attention to the fact that I was about to die. Dream or no dream, it's still very frightening." Rucco grunts.
"I need to know what clothes you were wearing in the dream, otherwise I can't interpert it for you." Nayru sighs, not wanting to wait another night to find out what her dream means, not really feeling like making another trip to the lake tomorrow. Rucco, as if being able to read minds, says, "I would like you to stay here tonight, if it's not too much trouble. I'll be able to interpert it tomorrow morning, and you won't have to make that trip again." Nayru just nods, then looks to Gondru, seeing if he agrees.
"I don't know, Nayru. Are you sure you'll be safe here?" Nayru nods once again. "I'm going to have to stay too, of course." Gondru says, looking over at Rucco. Rucco nods a bit and goes back into her office without another word. Moments later, Rucco comes out with some blankets and pillows.
"I only have one bed, I'm sorry. You two don't mind sharing do you?" Nayru shrugs.
"I don't mind. Do you, Gondru?" Gondru takes it into consideration, then shrugs as well.
"Why not? I'm tired, I'm going to bed right away."
"Me as well." Nayru says. The two get up, and follow Rucco to a small room just outside her office. They go over and lay on the bed, Gondru trying to keep his distance from Nayru, so he doesn't get kicked, and so it doesn't look like anything else. Nayru rolls her eyes at this. She watches Gondru slowly drift off to sleep, then does so herself.
