Right, ALL FURTHER REQUESTS WILL BE DISREGARDED. Sorry again guys, but that's just part of finishing this story up. I hope that you got all your requests out of you.
Sniff.
Anyway, here's my next entry. Sadly, it will be short… but there really isn't enough content to keep it going for any longer than it already is. Enjoy!
Ahem… once again I apologize for the switch of the '.' to '1' because when I load up my chappies now… they don't space with the '.' But they do with the '1'.
Character- Ruto
Setting- Ruto is in the Water Temple. She's attempting to conquer it herself in order to free her people. Instead, she runs into someone she'd thought she'd never see again… her fiancé. Somehow, she figures that maybe he'd better beat this Temple for her.
Long Lost Love
I pace the room quickly.
Come on.
Think!
1
I've been stuck here for ages.
This is getting old.
I shouldn't have to do this?
Why am I even here?
This sucks.
1
I'm a Princess!
1
Okay…
Come on, now.
Think.
You've tried everything to get this door to open.
There's not even a keyhole.
1
Is this even a real door?
1
Eeerg!
How'm I gonna get past this?
I'm not even two rooms into this stupid place and I'm completely lost.
1
I need a break.
Maybe then I'll figure this out.
… Besides, I need to breathe some proper oxygen.
1
I dive into the cool water.
I take a deep breath.
The sweet liquid passes through my gills.
1
How can Hylians stand it?
I mean… Living on the surface the whole time.
I could never handle it.
1
They're weird anyway.
1
I swim down two floors.
I come to the ground level.
I drift slightly above the floor.
1
Now…
How can I open that door?
Can I even do it?
Does it have to be opened on the other side?
1
Who designed this place?
I'll get my father to have him killed.
…Well…
That's as soon as I find out how to beat this place and free my father.
…But he shall be killed nonetheless.
1
Quite suddenly,
My thoughts are interrupted by loud, clunking footsteps.
Could that be Sheik?
He must be wearing rocks on his feet to be making that much noise.
1
The footsteps grow louder.
He's coming closer.
Good.
He can help me.
I'll order him to help me.
Ha ha!
1
I'm so smart.
1
I turn to face the entrance to the room I'm in.
Any second now he'll walk through that hallway.
I put on an angry face…
For him to see that he should be doing this instead of me.
1
I see him come round the corner.
But…
Holy Nayru!
It's…
Well… It's not Sheik…
That's for sure.
1
Oh.
My.
Goddesses.
1
I can't believe it.
Instead of Sheik standing in front of me,
There's Link…
That is… unless I'm very much mistaken.
Which I am never.
So it's him.
1
But…
Wow.
Just wow.
He looks great.
1
He's wearing iron boots…
So he can sink and walk around.
He so much older looking.
Oooo.
He's in a blue tunic now too.
I know that tunic.
It can let him breathe underwater.
… Oh!
Breathe underwater?!?
That means…
1
Ah!
We we're meant for each other!
Now we can live underwater.
Together.
Forever.
1
It's at this point that he FINALLY notices me.
His reaction isn't the one I'm hoping for.
1
He takes a step back.
He looks almost disgusted.
1
"Link!" I scream, "I admit that you have a lot of nerve coming here to see me after leaving me for seven years… But I forgive you! How could I say no to your handsome face. Besides, we are engaged… And love conquers all!"
1
I smile at him.
He doesn't move an inch.
He must be in shock.
1
"I understand that you might be a little taken aback at my being here… but please, when my presence settles in, try to refrain your affection, love and passionate kisses." I tell him.
1
Again,
He doesn't move.
Aww.
The poor guy.
He so happy, he's overwhelmed.
1
"All right." I say, giving in, "You can steal one kiss."
I lean forward.
I pucker up.
1
A large bubble emerges from his mouth.
I manage to read his lips.
'Cooties' he mouths.
1
Cooties?
1
"What the hell are cooties?" I ask.
I'm hurt that he didn't kiss me.
1
I watch his mouth closely.
'It means… I'm strongly religious,' he says silently, 'No contact until the wedding.'
His eyes shift.
He laughs.
1
Oh.
I guess I'm okay with that.
1
"You're right. Now is no time for love and romance," I say, realizing my location again, "I need to help my people."
1
A stream of bubbles runs from his mouth.
I can't read what he's saying.
1
"Slower, my Darling."
1
He shoots my a glare.
Maybe he doesn't like Darling.
Oh well.
Maybe Pumpkin.
Or Sugarcakes.
Or Honey.
1
He mouths the words slowly for me.
'I'm here to beat the Temple. Please leave this place so I can carry on.'
That's what he says.
1
What!?!
'leave this place'?
Is he crazy?
1
Oh.
THAT'S how it is, huh?
He thought he could ditch me?!?
Well… maybe I can use this.
1
He probably knows how to open that door.
1
"Okay, fine. I'll just show you the way then, Linky-wookie-kins. Follow me." I say.
With a sly smile,
I begin to swim upwards.
I purposely swim faster than he can.
I lead him up,
But before he manages to catch up,
I swim into an alcove and hide there.
1
I watch as he swims past me without noticing.
Goddesses he looks good!
But no.
Now is not the time.
Remember his 'cooties'.
I must respect that.
1
I wait a few minutes.
He should be finished by now.
1
I begin to swim to the surface.
But halfway there,
The water level starts to drop…
Really fast.
1
Before I know it,
I'm back to where I met Link…
Except there's no more water.
1
I guess this was Link's doing.
He's so smart.
Smart like me.
1
I guess we really are meant to be together.
We're long lost loves.
We're soul mates!
1
Ta da! Ruto is so stupid. I think I got her ignorance down. I especially like the 'Linky-wookie-kins' bit.
Well, I'll have more for you soon. Hang in there. Please read and review, I appreciate any and every thing. Bye for now!
