Twins

Chapter 10

Anna walked into the Gerudo Fortress. When the Gerudos ran up to throw her in prison, she held up her hands. "Wait. I want to join you."

"Prove yourself." One of the Gerudo said, unsheathing her sword.

Anna shrugged, leapt into the air, kicked, and knocked the sword out of the girl's hands. They stared at her. After several minutes, one of them said, "After that display, I'd say you're in."

They all dispersed except for Nabooru, who kept staring at her. Finally, she beckoned. Anna followed her. "Are you a Sage?" Nabooru asked her. Anna nodded.

"What temple?"

"Forest."

"I thought Saria was the sage of the forest temple."

"She is. So am I."

"How?"

"What is this, 20 Questions? I was adopted, and told I was Saria's twin."

"But you aren't?"

"No. I'm the Hero of Time's twin."

"Are you able to stay after your brother beats the temple?"

"No." 'If she knows about that, does she know how she dies?' Anna thought.

"That's too bad." Nabooru said. "It would be nice to have another Sage around."

'Apparently not.'

"Follow me. I'll show you where you can stay." Naboouru said. Anna nodded, thinking. "It's also a place where we can talk freely." Nabooru continued. Anna nodded again. "You want to talk to your adoptive sister, don't you?" She guessed. "Yeah." Anna admitted.

"I'll show you the way to the temple after I show you where you're staying."

Anna smiled, the first time she had and actually meant it in a while. "Thanks."

Nabooru waved her hand. "Don't mention it. When's your brother going to get here, anyway?"

The smile vanished. "That I don't know. But I do know that I'm a few days ahead of him."

"Oh." Nabooru said.

"Don't tell the rest of them to expect him."

"Would I betray another Sage like that?" Nabooru said, pretending to be hurt. Anna laughed. "I don't think I need to talk to Saria, actually."

Nabooru looked at her. "Are you sure?" Anna nodded.

"OK. Oh, by the way, we're here."

"Ummm... I am not going to wear anything except Kokiri clothes." Anna pointed out.

"Fair enough. I'll tell the rest of the Gerudos."

"And I don't consider myself a Gerudo."

"That I won't tell." Nabooru said.

"Thank you."

"Then what do you consider yourself?" Anna smiled. "What I am. A Hylian."
