Twins
Chapter 11
Clop! Clop! Clop! Link's horse jumped across the bridge and into the Gerudo fortress.
"I want you to guard on the cells." One of the Gerudo said to Anna. "But—" "But what?" She asked. "Nothing. Never mind. I'm not changing into Gerudo clothes." Anna said. 'So much for keeping out of sight. I guess it's time to tell him.' Anna thought.
A few hours later, Link found the last cell. Anna somersaulted down from the ceiling. "Anna! What are you doing here?" Link asked in surprise. "I'm keeping an eye on you, and guarding the key." Anna replied. Link shrugged. "I don't want to do this, but I need the key." He brought his sword down to hit Anna. Clank! Anna blocked with her own weapon. "Hitting your own sister. Twin, for that matter. Why? Merely for a key?" Anna said. Link slashed her left arm. "No. I need to get to the Temple." Link said. "I'll make you a deal. Where you had to kill the other Gerudo to get the key, if you manage to hit me a few more times, I'll give it you." Anna said. "Fair enough." He said, breathing a sigh of relief. 'It's a good thing she suggested that. I don't want the life-blood of my sister on my hands…er, sword.' He thought.
"Are you trying to hit my left side, because it isn't my dominant side?" Anna asked. "Yes." Link said, stabbing her in the side. Left side, of course. She fell to her knees, clutching where he had stabbed her. "H-here. Take it." She gasped, handing him the key. "Are you all right?" He asked in concern. She was his sister, after all. "I-I'll be fine."
Nabooru ran to Anna. "I could kill Shuwa for that!" She exclaimed, helping Anna up. "Are you OK?" She asked Anna. Anna nodded. "Mostly." "Wanna try to use our Sage powers to help?" Anna motioned to her brother. "Oh right, Anna's twin, leave the Thief's Hideout, and I won't throw you in the dungeon." Nabooru said. "My name is Link." He said. He stomped out, muttering, "Stupid Sages."
Anna and Nabooru together managed to heal the stab wound. "I could have done it myself." Anna said. "But you wouldn't have. You still don't trust your powers, after your adoptive sister died." Nabooru replied. "How did you…" "Hey, I'm a Sage, too. Remember?" "True."
"Weren't you going to stay out of sight?" "Shuwa told me to guard the key." "Oh right. What do you say we make your brother an honorary Gerudo? You too, when you leave." Nabooru said. Anna said. "OK." "What should we do to Shuwa? I mean, she obviously wanted you dead." Nabooru said. "I'll deal with her." Anna said grimly.
