Hidden Nightmares
Disclaimer: I don't own LoZ. I do own Violet, Nyrule, Stanondorf and anything else related to her.
DoggyDog13: Thanks, wow, you rule.
Chapter Eight: Figure It Out
"Wait, so you're from Nyrule, captured by Stanondorf and have the Tricircle of courage in you, right?" Link tried to get his facts straight.
"Pretty much," Violet smiled.
Link shivered, thinking hard. He took a step towards the Deku Tree, as if it might help him someway. And in a way, it did. Because there, sctrathed out on the mouth was a single word.
Impa
Impa picked up one of the many ice-magic books she had found and through it at the wall. It bounced off and landed on the carpet with a thud.
All of these stupid books, Impa screamed in her head, and not one of them says anything about getting rid of ice.
She walked over to the book on the floor and stooped to pick it up. As she did, she noticed there was only one word written on the page. One, single word.
Darunia
Darunia walked carefully over to the Goron's Ruby. He noticed there was a word on the slab, right underneath the gem.
"Fire," he whsipered.
On impulse, Darunia grabbed the stone out of the slab and ran up to the very top of Death Mountain. He peered inside the hole, avoiding the pieces of ice spewing out of it. Then, his hand trembling, he dropped the ruby right into the centre of it.
I'm sorry Din! Please forgive me, he thought frantically.
He noticed something odd around the ruby. It was melting all of the ice. And, sure enough, lava poured down over the top, harmlessly rolling over him. In minutes, the whole volcano was back to normal.
Impa
Fire, she thought, fire.
She smirked. Fire spells were oh-so-easy. Crackly magic formed again around her hands and a ring of fire surrounded them. It went out of the roof and covered the whole town. Impa cheered when she looked out side and saw her village back to normal, roosters crowing and people walking aimlessely.
Link
"Oh no!" Link cried, "Violet, come here. I have an idea, but I don't know if it will work."
"A risky idea is better than no idea at all," she smiled.
"I mean, all the snow will melt, but you might...die in the process!"
Violet was quiet for a moment, then she said, "It doesn't matter. The important thing is to get to your Princess."
"But you're a princess! I'm nothing. You're life is more important than mine!"
"You're not nothing. You're a hero. You're my hero."
She hugged him tightly and looked into his eyes. Link knew what she was trying to say to him. Go ahead and do what you have to. I'll be fine!
"Goodbye then Violet, princess of Nyrule, carrier of the tricircle of courage. You really are the most courageous person I've ever met."
And with that, he grabbed Violet tightly and threw the red Din's Fire crystal upon the ground. Red fire passed over him harmlessely, but he didn't dare open his eyes to see if Violet was alive. As the fire melted, he was transported back out into Ganon's Tower, and the ice barrier melted away, leaving them free to go into Ganon's Tower.
Impa P.O.V.
A flash of white light caught my attention. Probably just Link. As the light started to fade, I noticed something out of place. A girl with medium-brown hair that was pretty long-ish, stopping right above her elbows. And she was hugging Link. A red-hot dagger pierced my insides and I felt tears stinging my eyes.
"He's Zelda's man," I tried to scream, but nothing came out.
Being Zelda's nanny, I have to care for her. But her boyfriend/hero is alone for one second and he finds another girl to love. Zelda's going to hate him.
End P.O.V.
"You're alive!" Link cried joyously.
"Who's that?" Princess Violet gestured towards Impa, who had a look of murder in her eyes.
"Oh no! Impa! Zelda!" Link cried.
After some very harsh words, they all walked into the open doorway, Impa shooting murderous looks at Violet every now and then. After ten minutes of going up a very circular staircase(looks like Ganonorf's redecorated Ganon's Tower a bit), they came to a circular room. A pink beam of light rose around the middle of it. Inside Nabooru was pacing while Zelda was sleeping.
"Oh no, Zelda!" Link screamed running to the pink barrier.
He was thrown back when he got to it, though. Zelda continued sleeping like nothing was wrong. Looking up at the sky, Link noticed something out of place. A black crystal, shining greatly.
"Violet! Up there!" He pointed. "Violet? Omigosh, where's Violet!"
Everyone looked around and indeed she wasn't there. Cackling filled the small, circular room and they all screamed.
"I've took your little lovebird and your princess! Guess it's a good thing I'm a friend of Stan." Ganondorf sneered, nowhere to be seen.
"Who is this Stan you speak of?" Impa cried.
Quickly Link filled her in about Stanandorf and Nyrule. She didn't say anything, just remained calm.
"VIOLET! VIOLET!" Link screamed, trembling, "Zelda! Violet! ZELDA!"
Zelda stirred ever-so-slightly.
Zelda's Dreams
Giggling. Then laughing. Soon both Zelda and Link were screaming in laughter.
"Shhhhhhh, we'll wake Daphnes Nohansson if we're not quiet!" Zelda hissed through giggles.
Daphnes Nohansson was what Zelda called her father after the incident with her mother.
"Too late," Link whispered.
Zelda spun around. Behind her was her father, in all his angry glory.
"WHAT IN DIN'S NAME ARE YOU TWO DOING! I SWEAR, IF IT'S WHAT I THINK IT IS, YOU TWO ARE GOING TO BE-"
"Daphnes Nohansson! Of course we're not doing what you think. We're not nasty!"
"HOW DARE YOU BACK-SASS ME YOU UNGRATEFUL LITTLE BRAT! YOU ARE MY DAUGHTER, THERFOR YOU WILL ADRESS ME AS FATHER! AND NO MORE SEEING THIS NON-ROYALTY SCUM!"
"Ok, father," she spat.
That was the final straw. He grabbed Link by the collar and threw him(literally) out of Zelda's room, slamming the door after.
"Daphnes Nohansson!" Zelda sobbed, "I didn't kill mother. I don't know why you're treating me like this, but you don't have any right to throw Link out of the castle!"
"I have every right to throw anyone out of the castle. Which reminds me, GET OUT!" He screeched.
Zelda looked at him and fled, grabbing a quill, paper, and her light arrows. She ran out on to Hyrule Field, then stopped.
Where will I go? Where cam I go? Maybe Nabooru...
Nabooru had been her best friend(other than Link) for ages. Surely she could help her. So Zelda got out a piece of paper, her quill, and wrote a letter.
Hi Nabooru,
I'm on my slow way to Gerudo Valley, and I'm hoping to see you. I was with Link today. All day actually. We were out fishing in Lake Hylia and a monster fish pulled me down under. We were laughing about it when we got home and Daphnes Nohansson saw us. He thought we were doing...other things. So he threw Link out and totally had a fit. In the end, he kicked me out too! But there's more. Apparently all of Link's forest friends are mad at me, saying I get him in trouble with the king and I hog him. Can you believe it. Anyways, see you soon.
With love,
Zelda
Zelda rolled up the note and bottled it. She walked over to Hyrule River and tossed it in. The river would then carry it out to Lake Hylia, where the scientist would find it and deposit into the river far below Gerudo Valley. The carpenters would find it and get it, then deliver it to Nabooru. At the speed Zelda would be traveling, the note would surely get to Nabooru before Zel did.
Oh how I wish I had a horse. Malon's so touchy about her animals. Besides, I haven't had lessons.
Even so, Zelda promised herself she'd see Malon in the morning. After she got some sleep. She yawned widely the sat down where she was, underneath the big hill.
End Dreams
"ZELDA!"
Zelda yawned and woke up, her eyes blurred. She blinked a couple of times and glanced around. Beside her was a strange woman, dressed all in purple with long red hair in a pony tail. Standing a in a circular room were three people. A blonde boy with a red tunic, a strange stone-like creature, and a steely woman with iron gray hair. They felt strangely familiar to her.
Odd, I don't even know these people.
She blinked again and suddenly she recongnised them.
"Link!" She cried.
Link ran into her arms. Nabooru looked around, puzzled.
"Oh Zelda! You were staring at us like strangers a second ago!" Link cried.
"Was I?" She asked, "I don't remember it. Actually I don't even know how I got here. The last thing I remember is Ganandorf telling me to sleep. And now I'm standing here with you guys."
The others looked uneasy. Impa started to open her mouth, but Nabooru cut her off.
"Where is everybody?"
"Saria tried to kill us, so we sort of had to finish her off. Ruto sacrificed herself to save you guys," Darunia answered.
"Ah but she sacrificed her self for nothing. It's too late to save Zelda, she'll be a real vampiress in one hour, and I've got one more trick up my sleeve," Ganandorf cackled, still out of sight.
But someone was there. She had a black witches hat pulled low over her brown hair. A swirling black dress went down to her feet and a sinister smile lit her beautiful face. It was Violet.

Hey hey hey, whassup yo! Oh gosh, that was lame. Oh well. Sorry for the long wait. My aunt and uncle came over and stayed in the computer room. They left last weekend though, so I've been working on this all week. Oh and btw, Link dispersed of the barrier while Zelda was sleeping. He did it with a light arrow, but whatever, I was gonna tell you next chapter. RxR please. Oh and I may do a sequal when I am done. Let me know if you think I should. Already have a vague idea of what it's about. Won't tell you unless you review.
