The Truth About Me

Chapter 3

Shiek looked at Ganondorf with begging eyes. As much as he hated to beg Ganondorf, his worst enemy, he couldn't let his house become Ganon's. Ganon reached for the bag and tilted it so that all the rupees could fall on the table. His eyes gleamed with lust for the jewels. Shiek gulped and did a little prayer on his head; hoping that he would except the money.

" So Shiek, what do you want for the exchange of this hand full of money?" Ganon asked seriously with a twist of a teasing tone. Shiek put his hands on the desk and leaned forward to come face to face with Ganondorf.

" You know what I want Ganon! I'll give you these rupees for my house rights!" Ganondorf leaned back on his large chair and sighed.

" I don't know, Shiek you were pretty rude to me last night."

" Ganondorf, please I beg of you!" Shiek got on his knees, " I'll get on my knees! Please give me my house rights back!" Ganondorf stood up.

" Shiek! Get up men don't get on their knees for me!" He turned around facing the wall with his hands behind his back, "Only women do that for me." He turned back around and began to look through one of his portfolios. After a while he looked up from where he was looking and faced Shiek. Ganon handed him the papers that he was holding. Shiek immediately snatched the papers right out of Ganon's hands. Shiek looked over them to make sure he wasn't tricking him. He smiled at the fact that they were what he wanted.

" Thank you Ganon! Thank you!" and with that he left. Ganon sat back down in his chair and crossed his feet and put them on top of the table. He leaned back and put his hands behind his neck. He sighed and said,

" Ganondorf Dragmire you are the most kind person alive and sexiest. I love me!" Then he closed his eyes and began to sleep and dream about himself.

Alice Harkinian was walking to her bedroom. It was already night time and she was going to get ready to go to bed. She reached her master bedroom and walked inside. Her husband was already in bed reading a book about wars. She sighed at the sight of him

He's hopeless! Always into his military days Alice thought. Victor Harkinian looked up from his room and greeted his wife,

" Hello Alice, are you going to get ready for bed now?"

" Yes, Victor let me just take off my dress and I'll join you." He nodded and went back to his reading. Alice was taking of her dress and shoes. When she was finished she got her silk red night gown. She stopped before she put it on and asked her husband,

" Victor?"

" Yes Alice."

" Three days ago when we talked to Zelda about her getting married. Where you really serious about getting her an arranged marriage? Because D'Andre is very rich we could probably get her with him! He could surely help us in out time of ne-"

" Alice I would never have my daughter be put in an arranged marriage!" said Victor cutting her off. Alice's face turned to a shocking expression.

" But Victor! I thought that you-"

" I never said anything about an arranged marriage Alice. The only thing that I said was that I wanted her to get married with a wealthy man. I never got to explain to her that I want her to marry a wealthy man but in love! My daughter is not for sale on the way that you put it on!"

" But Victor please we-"

" But nothing Alice! I will not agree to an arranged marriage! Just think about it Alice. What happened to our relationship when we were forced to be married? Do you also want that to happen to our children?" Alice put her head down and began to put on her night gown. If I didn't get the opportunity to get married with whom I wanted why can she!

She finished putting on her gown she did a small prayer before going to bed. She hoped inside and put the covers over her.

" Good night Alice." But she didn't respond at that moment she didn't want anything to do with Victor Harkinian.

----

The next morning Link was getting ready to return home. He got his things packed and tied them up on Epona. Gray was standing next to him while he did so.

" When will you be coming back, Link?" Link finished packing the last few things before looking back at Gray.

" I won't take long Gray. I will probably come back in a couple of days. I want to check up on the cattle and how things are selling. I don't think that that would take long." Gray smiled at his friend.

" Good! Because I still wanted to show you around town! Maybe you could even meet up with that Zelda girl we saw the other day! With your new look I doubt that she wouldn't fall for you!" Link blushed at the compliment. He didn't know why but ever since he saw Zelda he couldn't keep her off his head.

" Gray, do you believe in love at first sight?" Gray smiled while he put a hand on his shoulder and shook it lightly.

" With the ways things are going with you, I do now!" Link smiled at Gray. I do hope that what you said is true Gray. I hope my new image is good enough for her. Link did change a lot in his image. His hair was cut the only thing that was left was his bangs. He didn't wear his tunics anymore now he wore white collared long sleeved shirts. Black pants, vest, and boots that almost came to his knees. He also wore a long brown leather jacket. He was a whole different person. But he still was the same on the inside and he never wishes to change that.

" Well Gray I guess I'll see you in a couple of days." They shook hands and exchanged good byes. Link got on Epona and rode off while Gray was waving good bye.

----

That same morning Alice was in the garden knitting a sweater. She didn't even know who it was for. Just then Impa came rushing in with a huge smile pasted on her face.

" Alice! Alice! Guess what I just heard!" Impa said excitedly. Alice didn't look up from where she was but asked anyway,

" What did you hear, Impa?" Alice said to her sister in a very dull voice.

" Do you remember Isaac Kokirian?"

" No…"

" He's the one that has that huge mansion near Betty's house! Remember the one who owns most of Angels River and some lands in Hylian Falls!" Alice looked up from her work to face Impa.

" Oh yes, I remember the one who only comes here for the Winter Ball?"

" Exactly! Well what I heard in town today was that he died a couple of days ago! Also that he left all his fortune to his only son!" Alice looked at Impa with an interested look.

" But I thought that all his children had died of a unknown diseases!"

" Yes, but I really don't know the story as to why he's here. All I know is that he's the richest man alive at this moment! And get this he's young, handsome, rich, and single! What do you think of that!" Alice looked at her sister with a sly smile and said,

" I think we should throw a small gathering and invite this Mr. Kokirian." Her smile became wider, " Don't you think so sister?" Impa looked at her sister with a curios expression and smiled.

----

That night Alice was getting ready to go to bed, and at the same time trying to figure out what to tell her husband. She finished putting on her night gown and went to the other side of the bed to where her husband was. She kneeled down on her knees and got hold of his hand. He looked at her surprised and asked,

" What is it, Alice?" She looked at him with a flirty face and flashed him the biggest white smile she could give.

" Well my dear husband," she started to run over his knuckles with her thumb, " you see this town has been so boring ever since the war started. Well I was thinking if maybe we could make a small party! You know to lighten things up around here."

" Alice have you gone mad? We are in a middle of a war and you want to host a party!"

" It will only be a small gathering, Victor." she gave him the puppy eyes she would often use when they were young, " Please Vic, would you please let me host a small party!"

" I don't know Alice…"

" Victor…" she kissed him on the lips, " please?…" He couldn't help but agree to his wife. He always loved her, but she never did. He just couldn't say no to her even after all these years.

" Alright Alice, you can have your party," she smiled at him, " but you have to make sure that you don't go over my budget! With the way things are going and all." Alice kissed him once more.

" I promise Victor, I will not go over our budget okay?" He smiled at her.

" Okay…"

----

A couple of days later Shiek had the urge to gamble again. So he went to the only place where he could get money out of. Which was The Wooden Kokirian Bank. He was already drunk and he had a hard time getting there. As Shiek finally got to the bank he opened the door with a thrust. Jeeves looked up at him frightened.

" Shiek? Wha…what do you want!" Shiek unable to walk straight swayed his way to Jeeves.

" You…knooow…what eye want…Jeebbie… I need you pees….a lot of you pees!" Shiek said. Hardly unable to understand what he said Jeeves responded,

" If you need rupees I'm going to have to give you a guarantee!"

" Wha? You are goin' to do dat to me? Your faborite custumer?"

" Yes, Shiek!"

" Fine! What do yah wand!"

" Your….I want your house rights!"

" Fine! Her yo go! Take em!" Shiek not realizing what he just did put the house rights on the table. Jeeves gave him the amount he wanted and Shiek went on his way to the bar once more. Only to lose everything he got from Jeeves once more.

----

Days later Link came back to Hylian Falls. He wanted to get things straightened out with the man that kept giving away his money. So he took Gray with him. When they got there Gray looked over the papers and counted the money. With Link it was no surprise that there was a lot of it missing.

" You are to be fired and sent to jail with the accuse of robbery!" Link roared with anger. Jeeves got on his knees to beg for mercy.

" Please Master Link! I have a wife and children to take care of! Plus Mr. Shiek Harkinian gave me his house rights as a guarantee!" Link's expression turned into an interested one.

" Fine! I will except the Harkinian house rights as payment to what you did!" Jeeves was paralyzed in place. Did what I just think I did really happen?

" Master Link there is one problem though!"

" Really what is it?" said Link no to interested.

" You see the Harkinian family is in the point of them becoming commoners. If I give you their home they will have no place to go!" Link couldn't stand this argument anymore. He grabbed Jeeves' coat and brought the short man up to his face.

" Listen Jeeves! You have stolen a lot of my fortune! I'm actually going easy on you by just giving me the Harkinian house rights! That is way less than what you really owe me! So when I ask you to hand over the rights you will give them to me! Do I make MY SELF CLEAR!" Link yelled. Jeeves nodded.

" I repeat do I make my self clear!"

" Ye…yes sir!"

" Good." he put the old man down and looked at Gray. Giving him the hint that they were through. Jeeves nervously handed the house rights to Link. He snatched them off his hands and left without another word.

When Gray and Link were finally outside they broke up into a historical laughter. When Gray was able to control himself he looked at Link and said, " You should have seen your face Link! The way you acted was so splendid! I think you made him poopie his pants!"

" Yeah I think I did! Oh my mighty Din! That was just too funny,I never knew having power was so fun!"

" Yeah but don't get carried away."

" Naw I won't, Gray I'm not like that." Gray looked at Link's hand and asked,

" So? What are you going to do with those?" Link followed Gray's gaze and saw that he was talking about the house rights.

" Well to tell you the truth I really don't know. I guess I'll give them back or something. Or I could have a little fun with it and mess around with that Shiek guy for what he's done to me. Other than that I'm not entirely sure what to do with this."

" Okay I just wanted to know well let's go home I'm hungry."

" We just ate a couple of hours ago, Gray!"

" I know but I'm hungry! Where do you think they sale grass juice with carrots?"

" I've said it before and I'll say it again, Gray… UGH! Your nasty!" Link said while walking off leaving Gray alone again.

" I'm NOT NASTY!" he paused for a little while before saying, " I'm just thirsty! AND PEOPLE DO DRINK THAT YOU KNOW! I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE!" he called off to Link as he began to follow him.

----

That night while Link and Gray were having their dinner. George came in with a peace of paper in his hand.

" Master Link!" Link looked up from his food and looked at George.

" What is it George?"

" You got this in the mail today." George said handing Link the letter.

" A letter for me? Already?" Gray leaned over to get a glimpse of the letter.

"Thank you George you may go now." The elder left with no hesitation. Link examined the letter before opening it. Gray couldn't stand it anymore he had to know what was written inside the blue paper.

" Come on Link! Open it! I doubt that it has a magical spell in it!" Link hesitated for a while before he opened it.

" Okay here goes." Link looked over the letter and began to read out loud.

Dear Mr. Link Wooden Kokirian,

I am happy to inform you that the Harkinian Family will be having a small gathering. The date of the party will be this Friday night at eight o' clock. There will be food, music, and not to mention lovely ladies. We hope to see your presence there.

Sincerely yours,

Madam Alice Harkinian

Link looked up from the letter to face Gray.

" Well? What are you going to do?" Gray asked with excitement. Link looked back at the invitation. His brows narrowed as he reread it.

" I don't know…." Gray got up from his seat and shook Link madly.

" What do you mean you don't know! Do you know how lucky you are to get invited to this party! Nobody has been wanting to throw one because of the war! And you are telling me that you don't want to go to the first party in ages!" Link looked at him confused.

" So are you saying that I should go?" Gray slapped his forehead in impatience.

" Well of course I think you should go! Don't you realize that this is the perfect chance you have to meet the lovely Zelda Harkinian!" At the sound of her name Link quickly got up from his seat.

" I almost forgot that she was part of that family! Well in that case I will go!" Link looked down at his feet and back at Gray, " Uhh….what exactly do men wear to these things?" Gray slapped his back and smiled,

" Link, why do you think I'm here?"

" Thanks Gray!"

" Now come on the party is in two days! We have to get you to the tailor before they close." Link and Gray quickly left to the central of Hylian Falls.

----

Two days later it was time for the Harkinian party. Everybody in town knew about it. If you weren't invited you were not important. Zelda was getting ready for the party she couldn't wait. It's been an awfully long time since we've had a party in town. I wish Celin was here… Zelda thought to her self. She had to look extra pretty today since her family was hosting the party. Even though it was a small one she still had to look her best.

She was wearing a whine red dress with black designs on it. Red always went with her pale skin. The dress was made in Castle Town one of the best market places. It was made special for her. It was strapless with a black ribbon outlining the strapless top. A black rose was holding up her hair on the left side. Her hair was straight at the top and curled at the bottom. That was often the way she wore her hair. She also wore black gloves that came up to her armpits. She had a red pearled bracelet on her right wrist. When she looked at her self in the mirror she was shocked at the sight of her.

Never in my life had I looked this good! she thought. As she examined her self a couple of more times and put on some blush and lipstick . She heard a knock on the door.

" Come in." She called out. Seconds later the door opened and she turned around to see who had come in.

" Hello Zelda!"

" Hello Nabooru! I'm so glad you could come!" Nabooru was looking beautiful as always. She was wearing her hair up in a very difficult bun, and she was wearing a bright yellow dress.

" Me too Zelda! Listen you got this letter a couple of days ago. I was so busy that I forgot all about it. I'm sorry." Zelda ran up to her and Nabooru handed her the blue paper.

" It's okay Nabooru! I understand!" Without hesitating Zelda opened the letter and began to read to herself.

Dear Zelda,

I finally got the chance to write to you. You do not know how happy I am for this I-

Knock Knock

Zelda sighed and asked,

" Who is it!"

" Zelda this is your Aunt Impa! Your mother sent me to tell you that the guests have started to arrive, and that she wants you down there!"

" Alright I'll be down there in a minute." Zelda put the letter down on her desk I guess you will just have to wait my love and left the room with Nabooru close behind.

----

As Zelda came down to the party she greeted everybody and sat down on a sofa. Nabooru sat next to her and they began to talk.

" Oh Zelda my little boy has been growing so fast! You should see him! He's so big right now! I think he said ' Momma' yesterday!" she put a finger on her chin in thought, " Ether that or it was him burping and it sounding like he said ' Momma'. Ether way it sounded like Momma!"

Zelda giggled at Nabooru's story and Nabooru smiled at her.

" So Zelda, are you going to actually marry that man?"

" Shhhh! Nabooru we mustn't talk about that at this moment I'll tell you later. People here might listen!" Zelda said whispering at her.

" Zelda! Zelda!" Came the voice of her mother. Zelda turned around to greet her and smiled.

" What is it mother?"

" Come with me! I want you to meet somebody!"

" Now?"

" Yes now!" She looked over at Nabooru, " Nabooru may I please borrow Zelda for a couple of minutes?"

" Why yes go ahead!"

" Thank you!" She looked back at Zelda, " Now come on Zelda!"

" Okay, okay!" She looked back at Nabooru while standing up, " I'm truly sorry Nabooru!"

" It's fine! Now go!" She shooed Zelda away with her hands. Mrs. Harkinian grabbed Zelda by the wrist and pulled her to follow her. They passed by the crowd and Zelda said hi to them while she passed by them. When they stopped she turned to look at an old friend and said hi to her. In the back ground she could hear her mother talking to somebody. But the words that caught her attention were,

" Mr. Kokirian, this is my daughter Zelda!" Zelda quickly turned around only to be met by the most beautiful deep sea blue eyes. Zelda blushed as she saw him. He was handsome that was for sure. She took in the moment to suck up all of his details. He was wearing a navy blue tuxedo and his blonde bangs framed some part of his manly face. He was smiling at her with the most handsome boyish grin. His white teeth seemed to shine. She quickly looked to her right in order to control her self.

Zelda why are you acting like this you love Celin! Get a hold of your self! Yes he's handsome but you are in LOVE WITH CELIN! When Zelda was able to regain her self she turned back around to properly greet the man. He took her gloved hand and kissed it. Not keeping his blue eyes of her violet ones.

" It's nice to meet you Zelda." His voice was so deep. It melted the hearts of all single women around her. But Zelda knew better than to look at somebody while her true love was in battle. Zelda curtsied and said in the most polite tone she could have,

" It's nice to meet you Mr. Wooden Kokirian."

" Please call me Link!"

" Very well then Link…" When she said his name immediately the band began to play a waltz. She turned to look at the band and turned back to look at Link. He looked at her with an expression that Zelda couldn't quite figure out. Link held out his hand and asked,

" Will you do me the honor of giving me the first dance?" Zelda looked at her mother and back at Link. She didn't want to do this but she was one the hostess.

" I would love to." She gave him her hand and he lead her to the dance floor. He put himself in a dancing position and began to lead her. He looked at her straight in the eyes and Zelda began to feel slightly uncomfortable.

" You look very beautiful tonight Miss Zelda."

" You don't look half bad your self Sir Link." Those were the only words they spoke to each other through out the whole dance. When the song finally finished she separated from Link and said in the most polite manner,

" I'm sorry, Link but I left one of my friends at the living room by her self ,and I do not want to be rude and leave her that way." He flashed her one of his boyish grins.

" It's quite alright I understand." He kissed her hand again, " Thank you for the wonderful dance, Zelda." Zelda smiled and curtsied before she left him to go find Nabooru.

----

Link watched as Zelda walked off the dance floor and into the living room. Then a whole bunch of women came up to him begging for a dance. He was trying to find a way out of their circle in the most polite manner.

" Ladies I'm truly sorry! Uh…yes I will dance with you!"

" Ooooh! Will you dance with me!" A brunet asked. Then a red head pushed her over to one side.

" No! You will dance with me right?" The brunet came back and pushed her off. It was like that on and on with about ten women. Then as if an angel had heard his prayers a hand got his forearm and pulled him out of the scene. When he turned around to see who it was he was shocked to see Mrs. Harkinian facing him. She pulled him away from the party and brought him into the garden. When they were far enough she turned to look at him.

" Link I need to have a word with you." He gulped frightened that she was going to confess her feelings towards him.

" Link I just wanted to let you know that I knew your father, and I'm very sorry for you loss." Link relaxed when she said this.

" It's okay Mrs. Harkinian."

" I also knew his mother, may her soul rest in peace. She was a very bright woman. I also knew your mother and I'm sorry for that loss also."

" Mrs. Harkinian, that woman was not my mother." She looked at him with a strange expression.

" Oh! Then your father remarried?"

" No, Ma'am he did not remarry." Her face looked as if she was confused.

" What? I…. I don't understand, Link?" Link took a deep breath and looked towards the window, and saw Zelda talking to a dark skinned woman. Then he looked back at

Mrs. Harkinian.

" Mrs. Harkinian, I am a bastard….." She put a hand on her chest as if she was losing air.

" Did….did you say ba… bastard?" Link simply nodded and put his head down.

Did I do the right thing as in to tell her the truth about me?
