Here goes Chapter 2!

Reviews:

Assassinring: Thank you very much! Hope I do finish…OO

Etito20: Well, I hope it is a good recreation of the areas in the game, but when she goes into the old man's house, it's not a perfect recreation. See, his house doesn't have a bathroom (weird…I know) so I decided to add one. Besides, these games never have bathrooms when you go into someone's house…have you ever noticed that? I wish the game makers would stop cutting corners, lol.

Misterfooch: Thanks for reviewing!

Ok, on with the story!

The fifteen-year-old princess paced back and forth. Her temper had gotten the best of her again, and she couldn't help but get frustrated over everything.

"WHERE IS THAT MAN! We made a promise to each other and he still hasn't showed up! Who does he think he is?" Her father tried to calm her down but it didn't help much.

"Honey, I'm sure there's a very good reason for him not being here."

"Forget it, Papa! I gave him the Zora Stone! He should at least give it back if he wasn't going to marry me!" Her father finally got tired and put his foot down (figuratively of course-it would be hard for him to even try to do it if you saw his figure).

"Ruto! There are more important things going on then your stupid dilemma! Hyrule is in uproar and all you can think about is your personal problems?"

"Ugh! Fine Papa! But don't come crying to me when Zora's Domain has no king to rule it!"

"How can I? I'll be dead by then."

"Ugh!" She ran off in anger. All she needed was some good exercise to blow off the steam.

She ran through a tunnel that was connected to the throne room. At the end was that other Zora, trying to make money even in times as this. Ruto completely ignored him and jumped off the waterfall. Her eyes went narrow as she was diving straight down. Then her eyes completely closed before she hit the water. As she slowly came up to the surface she noticed something coming from the secret passageway.

"What do we have here?" Ruto said. As soon as Zelda reached the surface and breathed, Ruto gasped. "Princess Zelda! Why are you here?"

Ruto helped Zelda to solid ground as she gasped for more air. She wasn't used to swimming for so long underwater, other than the dive she made at Gerudo Valley.

"Princess Zelda, you are in danger aren't you?"

"Yes I am…who are you, if you don't mind my asking?"

"I am Princess Ruto. Come. My father would wish to speak to you."

Ruto led Zelda to the throne room. At last she felt safe but there was an eerie feeling telling her that danger is near.

"Princess Zelda! It's good to see you…but under these circumstances I think it's best if we get down to business." Said King Zora.

"I agree." Zelda nodded. "Your highness, Impa sent me here saying I could seek refuge here. Is it completely safe for me to stay here?" The king frowned and shook his head.

"I'm afraid there is no guarantee on that. For the moment we are safe. My Zora fighters are keeping the barrier strong to ward off evil. But I don't think it will last forever."

"How long do you think it will last?" Zelda asked hopefully.

"I do not know how long my warriors can go for but they will definitely hold out for at least two months." He said, thoughtfully.

"Then I guess that's settled." Ruto interjected. "By the way, princess, what are you wearing?"

"It's supposed to protect me. It can be a disguise also." Zelda put the tight hood on her outfit and pulled up the cloth over her mouth. All you could see was one eye.

"Interesting…" Ruto said. "This Impa left a message earlier for you. I almost forgot to tell you." Ruto smiled apologetically and gave Zelda the note. Zelda grabbed it slowly, unsure of its contents.

"Dear Zelda, do not worry about Ganondorf. I am distracting him with my all. The soldiers are trying their best to defeat him. Their powers are no use but they are strong enough to keep him distracted. What I want you to do is read the book of the Royal Family. The Zora should have it. With that, and the new garment you have, you should be able to hide from the King of Evil. Strength will also come to your hands. Princess, you must embrace it for if you are to help defeat the King of Evil, you must obtain these powers. You are to wait for the Legends to come true…but now you must do as much as you can. Everything you need to know is in the book. Study it, know it, and live it. The world is resting in your hands as well as the legendary hero…stay safe princess. Adieu."

Zelda soaked in all she read and took a deep breath. "The world is resting on my shoulders? But who am I to have such responsibility?"

Ok, that's it all for now. Hope you like it. R&R plz!
