So heres another chapter and its deticated to LiNkLuVr13 cuase she is always the first to review and she is sooo cool! (hugs her). She even e-mailed me when she was in Brazil! personally I think that is soo cool! Makes me feel special *.* well this chapter is for her!
The sun glares down radiating its strong heat towards Hyrule making waves of heat noticable. It was one of those days where you would want to stay inside of your house or go swimming to avoid the heat. Swimming would be an awsome idea but a bath is just as good in the eyes of a cirtain Sheikah. Laying with his head proped up on the porcilent curve of the bathtub Sheik with his eyes closed soaked in the bubbley tub. It had been four days since Zelda and himself escaped from the Gerudo Fortress. When they had arrived at the castle it wasnt exactly how he had pictured it to be. Once they had arrived at the castle the guards pulled him off his horse throwing him to the ground then escorted the princess else where while they took him to a holding cell. For some reason Impa was so worried about Zelda she had forgotten to mention that he may be with her . Also he guessed she didnt think he would bring the princess back to the castle looking how they did. So after a few days of questioning they set him free giving his old room back and everything. So this brought him back to his current thoughts. Opening one eye he sighed softly then pulled his head under the soapy water after taking a long breath. He lay there under water letting the warm water wash away any of the dirt from his hair. Sheik ran his fingers through his hair then came to the surface. Gasping for air he heard a sudden shreik of someone in the room. Opening his eyes quickly he saw the stunnded and rather embarrassed Princess Zelda standing in the door way.
"ACK Sorry!" She cried out in a panic turning her back to him with her hands clamped over her eyes. Sheik looked at her quirking an eyebrow at her in confusion. He didn't understand why she was so embarrassed she had done it once before when he first got here but didnt do anything. What had changed? Its not like he was any different. Was he?
"Its ok princess" he said jumping out of the tub then wrapped the oviously too big white towel over his shoulders wrapping it around him like a blanket. Making sure that all you could see was his head and feet the walked up behind the princess then cleared his throut noisily. Zelda timidly turned around to face him her face still a tinge of pink for before.
" I am so sorry Sheik I didnt think you were in here still!" she spoke timidly pulling a peice of her short wavy hair behind her ear. (AN. Yes she does have hair lol in the game it almost looks like she doesnt but I have seen the comic and thats what her hair looks like)
"Like I said before its ok princess" He said walking back into his room where his new clothes were kept. After the whole ordeal they had given him new clothes, shoes and all that kind of stuff. The one thing he looked for first when he got back into his room was his harp his mother gave him. He was happy to see that it was right where he had left it before he had left.
"Oh well.. I was just checking on you... Oh and before I go ... umm.... could you meet me out in the first courtyard by the fountain?" She smiles soflty. Sheik noded then he watched her leave the room letting him get change. Pulling open his drawers he pulled out a pair of black pants, dark blue button down shirt and everything else needed. After pulling on all of his clothes he searched his room for his boots.
"Stupid boots ... where are they?" he muttered to himself as he crawled on his hands and knees looking for them. Once he located his boots he fixed his hair as well as he could then ran out of his room. Still not used to how big the castle was he wandered around the halls looking for a way that led outside. After a while of aimlessly walking around the castle he came to a long corridoor with paintings of old kings hung on the walls. Looking at every picture as he walked he stopped suddenly at one picture. In the picture he saw a family painting of the current royal family which seemed to be fairly old. In the middle of the picture there was a very life like baby princess which looked no older then four. Holding her a beautiful women smiled softly her blue eyes sparkleing brightly as if she were staring back at him. The women who he guessed was the Queen of Hyrule had long strawberry blonde cascaded past her shoulders framing her face perfectly. Sheik stared at the picture in awe not noticing a shadow cast across him.
"A beauty she was.... what a shame she is gone.... waste I have to admit" a dark voice spoke from behind him. Gasping slightly Sheik quickly turned around to see a man dressed in black armor stared harshly down at him. The man smirked slightly crossing his arms taking amusment in startling the Sheikah. Sheik studied the man qickly comming to a quick conclusion who he was. How could he not reconise the man, he had striking red hair which made his dark eyes stand out as with his dark colored skin.
"Ganondorf...." He whispered stepping back carefully. Gannon laughed loudly throwing his head back slightly then looked back down at the boy.
"Ah you know of me.... what is a little Sheikah doing in the castle alone? Gannon asked smirking at the last comment. Sheik narrowed his eyes at the taller man not liking the tone of the older mans voice.
"Whats it to you?" Sheik spat angerily not intending to sound so angry.
"I was just pointing out the oviouse and dont take that kind of tone with me boy" Gannon growled walking towards Sheik making the little boy back into the corner. Looking up at the Gerudo ruler he couldnt help think that maybe he had something planned.
" You know.... Your kind are supposed to be exelent fighters and with you..... I see potential for greatness... but also I see great evil within you which is begging to be releaced..." Gannon whispered grabbing Sheik my the collar of his shirt pulling him so that they where eye to eye. Sheik squirmed trying to get free pf the tight grip that held him.
"What ... do you want with me!" Sheik cried out still trying to get away. Without a word the Gerudo pulled something from his pocket then held it up to Sheiks face. Stopping his struggle he looked at the thing in Gannons hand. It was a tiny brown seed that looked like it was twisted to sharp ends on each side.
"This is whats going to seal your fate to my own which I can triger at any time...." Gannon whispered then took the seed between to fingers then suddenly thrusted it into Sheiks neck. Letting out a sharp cry Sheiks eyes widen as he gasped for breath. With an evil chuckle Gannon carelessly dropped the Sheikah boy to the floor then turned on his heel walking away. Sheik lay on the floor with his hand on the side of his neck. Pain pulsed through his whole body as he lay there helpless. 'Why must things like this always happen to me?' he thought to himself.
"Sheik are you down here?" a voice called down the corridoor. Mumbling softly Sheik lifted his head slowly to see Zelda standing at the far end of the hallway.
" Yes" He croaked trying to be as loud as possible without hurting himself further. He lay her head back down as he head foot steps come closer to him. Then he felt a hand softly place itself over his own rudding it slightly.
"What happened?" Zelda asked hurriedly as she helped him lean against the wall. Taking in a few deep breaths Sheik told Zelda exactly what happened between him and Gannon. Once he was finished Zelda had a worried look on her face then looked at the red mark on the side of his neck.
"Hrmm... well I guess he got to you before I was able to warn you..." She sighed as she sat beside Sheik. Holding onto the side of the wall he pulled himself to his feet then held the wall for support.
" Since you seem to know so much can you tell me why things keep like this keep happening to me!?" Sheik yelled angrily. Zelda blinked quickly then looked up at him with a look of mixed emotions.
"It's hard to explain Sheik... I-" Zelda started then was cut off.
"Hard to explain? Whats so hard to explain!! I am sick and tired of being attacked by people! when I think everything is fine it comes back and whips me in the face! Why Zelda WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING TO ME!!" Sheik emphisized the last few words. Zelda sat there speachless as she stared up at Sheik then looked down at her hands.
"Because its your fate to help carry the burden of Hyrule and assist me and the chosen hero to save this land..." she spoke softly playing with the fabric of her dress.
"Well what if I dont want anything to do with this?" He whispered looking out the window crossing his arms arcross his chest.
"You have no choice... fate chose you because there is great potental in you that can change the course of Hyrule...." Zelda stood up. Sheik sighed then slowly started to walk back towards his room letting his finger tips slowly drag across the surface of the wall.
"Where are you going?" The princess called to him sounding concerned.
"I am going to go be alone... so please excuse me.."He calle dover his shoulder then turned around the corner.
