Chapter Two—A Weird Foretelling
Chapter Two
Zelda and Link were in the kitchen, cutting bread for dinner. They were both going on fine until Link accidentally cut his finger with the knife. He stumbled backwards, looking at the deep cut. Zelda ran over to him to see his cut and she rubbed it with her cold fingers. He backed away and ran to go tend to his wound.
Link was running around the castle, trying to catch Zelda in a game of tag. But she was too fast for him. Pretty fast for a girl. She ran into Link's bedroom and jumped into the closet. She held the door closed with both hands pulling on the knob. Link tried to open the door by pulling the other way on the knob, thinking he was stronger. And he did, eventually, but he only opened it halfway. Then Zelda pulled it closed again. Link playfully still tried to open the door, but it wouldn't budge.
Finally, after five minutes of pulling on the door, he managed to get it open. He expected Zelda to run out, trying not to get tagged by Link, but she only faced her back towards him, staring down at her arm.
"Zelda...what's the matter?" he said, a little concerned. She turned around and showed him her arm. It was completely saturated with blood.
"I don't know what I did," she said, "I didn't even cut it."
"All the parts of the dream are coming true," Link said to Zelda. Zelda nodded.
"We've been trying to get it to stop..." she said, "but now I see no matter what we do, we can't stop my prophecy from coming true. It'll come by naturally, without us even knowing it," tears developed in her eyes, "But I don't want it to end the way I think it will."
Link hugged her, "Don't worry Zelda. At least we'll die together and not alone."
Zelda tried to curl in a ball, trying to block out her fears. This was it...this was the end for her. She looked at the woman with the blonde hair, with a knife in her hand. She closed her eyes.
"Link!" she screamed. Someone had to of heard that.
"Fool," said the woman and the raised the knife and deeply and cleanly slashed Zelda's shoulder. She screamed out in pain as she felt all her blood spray out in a heap. Link finally reached the kitchen and stared into the eyes of the woman.
"Morgana!" he screamed and he charged at her. But the woman did not fear him at all. She only stuck her knife out and plunged it into his stomach. He stopped dead in the air, his mouth agape and his eyes widened with fear. The woman tilted the blade upwards, listening to the crackling of Link's bones and the sickening sound of skin and organs twisting. His blood spilled out onto her knife...onto her gnarled hand. She laughed hideously and she yanked the knife from Link's body. He fell to the ground, next to Zelda, who looked at him with weak eyes.
"Link..." she said, "Please...take my hand...we'll die together..."
Link slowly took her hand and squeezed it the best he could. His eyes slowly closed, followed by Zelda's. And the woman with the blonde hair laughed wildly, knowing all too well she had already won.
Author's Notes: Now this chapter is really starting to catch your attention, isn't it? The next chapter you are about to read was originally a part of this chapter. But then I saw that by instead of putting it into one long chapter, I'll put it into two short chapters instead. That way...it'll catch your attention more than just reading both of them together. And you know I'm right...don't you? You know you'd like to read the rest. So please RR...and no flames please.
