All right…video games are nice too. So I decided that anime will not be my only terrain. Well, at any rate, here's my Zelda fan fiction…. thing…Okay!
Disclaimer: I do not own Zelda. I do not own Link, and I do not own any thing of it. I only own the game on my N64, "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time", thank you very much. I beat it too…
Zelda placed her pale hands into the clear water. She gently began to rub her hands on each other to clean off the mud. She had fallen into the mud face first and had to go into the stream to rinse off. Today just wasn't her day. She had escaped three times that day and was still in danger.
Right now she was calmly drying up in Gerudo Valley. There was a little stream in the entrance of the valley so she decided that would be the best place to wash up. It was under a bridge so it was likely no one would notice her. After she dried off, she picked up her dress and got out of the stream. She saw some huge rocks so she quietly hid behind them. She was waiting for her caretaker, who promised that she would come back to help her. And she waited diligently. She slept behind that rock through the night…waiting and waiting.
The next morning, Zelda got her things together and looked around the valley. She began to feel lonely. She took out the ocarina she had, and began to play. The tune of her ancestors picked first…then she played an unknown melody.
"Hello? Are you there?"
"…Zelda! Yes I'm here! Where are you?"
"I'm in the last place he'll look to find me. It's in the valley of the Gerudo. Can you not come here?" Zelda hid behind the rocks immediately, just in case.
"Zelda…please forgive me but I shall be delayed longer. But listen. I have a simple task for you to do."
"What is it?"
"I need you to reach Zora's Domain. If you can get there, you'll be safe. They will not let him enter. All you have to do is get there and you shall be safe."
"What about the Ganondorf?"
"I shall distract him. All you need to worry about is getting to Zora's Domain safely. Please be careful."
"I will. You be careful yourself, too."
"I will. Now make haste! Ganondorf is moving fast. Quickly run and spare no time. If you need rest then rest…but do not tarry, my princess." And with that, Zelda lost her connection to the Sheikah who had been her caretaker ever since she was a baby.
Thinking quickly, she ran for the larger bridge but noticed a Gerudo woman standing there. She froze completely. The Gerudo woman was walking towards her.
"Are you the princess?"
"I am…uh…no, not at all. Why would I be her? She lives in the palace and wears fine clothing where as I am but a peasant…" Zelda knew not where these words came from but was soon looking at the faces of three Gerudo women.
"Um…you are wearing fine clothing my lady…who do you think you're fooling?" Said the woman. "Now, seize her!"
At that instant, Zelda ran. She was quickly cornered to the edge of the cliff. Her life was flashing before her eyes.
"Give it up princess. The ruler of our fortress wants to make sure he gets what he wants. You are going to help him."
"No! Never!" Zelda screamed out and made a quick decision. She jumped. She flew. She dived…right into the river. It was more then fifty feet down, but she successfully made it.
Zelda woke up to find herself at Lake Hylia. She swam as fast as she could to the sweet ground she was forbidden from and kissed the earth. Her dress was soggy, of course. It was drenched and clinging tightly to her body. She saw this and desired to dry up but remembered what her caretaker had told her. So she stood up and ran towards a house she saw. Maybe she could seek direction as to how to get to Zora's Domain there.
Upon entering the small laboratory, she noticed an old man. Quickly she went to him and asked, "Excuse me sir, can you please tell me how to get to Zora's Domain?"
The old man cocked an eyebrow and answered her with interest.
"Do you seek eyeball frogs?" He said, but only managed to fill her with confusion. "I guess you do not. Well, young lady…the fastest way to Zora's Domain would be to take the secret entrance in this very lake. There is a secret underwater passage if you wish to get there quickly."
"Really? But I'm already drenched! I can't go on like this…"She said. The man saw her distress and offered her a towel to dry up with. She took it gratefully and began to dry off a bit.
"You'll catch a cold if you don't take care of yourself…" He said. He reached for his drawer and took out some garments. "Here you go, young lady."
"Thank you, sir." Zelda looked at the garments and looked at them in awe. The old man smiled and pointed out the bathroom. After she got dressed she came out the bathroom. She had on a skin tight, purple and white outfit that had an eye on the chest. She felt more comfortable and able to move around easier but felt weird. She was so used to her formal, royal garments, she was feeling a bit embarrassed at the fact that she looked like a boy.
"You like?" Asked the old man. "It will help you escape the clutches of the evil one. That Sheikah told me to give this to you." Zelda looked at him with hope. Her eyes finally beamed.
"Oh thank you so much! I've been running for the past four years and things have began to become hopeless!"
"It is nothing, my dear. But please make haste. In Zora's Domain you should seek safety."
"I shall! Thank you so much!"
"Oh, and just so you know, that outfit is specially designed to help you fight. It is stretchable, incase you decide to grow anymore the next few years, and the evil one is still rampant."
"Thank you sir…"
"Your welcome. Now get out of here." The old man gave the young lady a smile and rushed her to leave. She ran for it as soon as she got outside.
The man had pointed out to her where the secret passage was and she went for it. Once there, she dived as far as she could and in no time at all, she was in Zora's Domain…
I was going to make this a one-shot but I thought, why not? It'll give you guys a little something from me while I get ready for the real literary work I'm going to try this summer. Well, at any rate, I hope you enjoyed my fan-fic…please update soon. I need feedback.
R&R PLEASE!
