This is the second chapter, I
really hope you guys enjoy it!
Link entered Mc'Clouds coffee house after the other two swordsmen, he had tried to keep the door open for Zelda but she simply giggled and pushed him over the threshold and into the building. When Link and Zelda entered the coffee shop, Marth and Roy were already seated at one of the place's many booths. Link squeezed into the booth next to Roy and he watched the Princess of Hyrule sit next to the young prince of Aritia.
Link looked at the prince and princess as if it were the first time he had ever laid eyes on them, it was a simple exercise that the Korki had taught him to keep himself focused.
'Marth…always the pretty boy' Link thought to
himself as he looked over what looked like a silk shirt, with the
flag of Aritia stitched into the corner of the pocket. Even though
Link couldn't see them, he knew that wore a pair of black faded
jeans, whilst they were made by the same company as the shirt, he
knew they didn't bear the Artiaian logo.
Even though Marth did
wear designer cloths, and he was sure the inside of those jeans was
made out of silk or some other fancy material, it was truly the young
prince's face that made the entire school single him out as "pretty
boy". Perfect skin, Link wasn't sure if he had EVER seen a pimple
on the boys face. His eyes were a deep green, and he had watched in
awe several times as girls got themselves lost in his stare. And
Marth's dark blue hair that was always close to a work of
art.
Zelda was the most beautiful girl Link had ever seen,
quite simply. Her silky blond hair fell over her shoulders and kept
going down to an inch or two above her hips, and some how she NEVER
had split ends. Her amazing blue eyes were always twinkling….the
only thing Link could ever compare them to was the sun hitting Lake
Hyrule at sunset. Her face was perfect, lips, checks, nose…everything
was perfectly in proportion with everything else. Being his friend,
Link never looked at Zelda in a sexual way…but he had caught one or
two guys staring at parts of her body that he would have preferred
they hadn't….so there must be something there.
Today, Zelda
was wearing a plain white button up shirt, with white lines running
down it with gaps between each of them that were plain, with a lack
skirt that fell down around her ankles. He noticed a golden triangle
sitting on each ear, representing the Triforce of wisdom that she
held.
Link had one a single golden triangle on a necklace, but he only wore it when the occasion called for it.
Then there
was Roy….how could he describe Roy?
The first thing that most
people noticed about Roy, no matter how long they had known him, was
his strong facial structure, you could tell simply from his face that
he was born to be a warrior for his people. Next, people would
generally notice his deep brown eyes, which had an ever so slight
tinge of red. Today, he had several strands of red hair dangling over
his eyes. His hair was always slightly different every day. Roy had
chosen to wear his hair spiky today, using moose and gel to stick it
up in several spikes, with the exception of the few pieces dangling
in front of his eyes.
Roy wore a loose fitting black t-shirt with
the faded logo of some rock-band across the chest, and a pair of deep
blue jeans, that were faded at the bottom, and were also starting to
come apart.
"So," Marth Started. "I think it's pretty
safe to assume that we are all going to take part in Melee,
right?" he added, looking around to see if there were any
waitresses serving.
"I know I am!" exclaimed Roy with a
mile-wide smile across his face.
"Waitress!" Marth yelled,
finally spotting one that was close enough to bother calling out
to.
"It said we had to pick "four special moves," Zelda
replied, picking up a menu and casually scrolling through it.
"Zellie, why do you read that thing every time we come in here? We've been coming to this place for the past 3 years; you know everything off your heart anyway!" Link commented, staring across at the princess.
"Link, one day they
might bring out a new food, and because you claim to have this menu
memorized, why don't you tell me what costs $8.95?" She
replied with a smirk.
"I'd be happy to" replied the Hylian
with a confident smile "Plate of fries and a large coffee"
Zelda
simply chose to ignore the hero of time, and go back to reading her
menu, whilst Marth and Roy tried not to giggle.
Finally, the waitress came over to the table and withdrew a pencil from behind her air and flipped open her notepad.
"What can I get you
four fine young teenagers then?" She said with a perky voice and a
toothy smile.
"Four medium coffees, one with extra sugar, one
black, one with extra milk, and one plain." Zelda said, without
looking up from her menu.
"Oh, and a plate of fries" Roy
added. "And when you bring the fries, bring the ketchup with you
please"
"Anything for my four favy customers!" replied the waitress, and walked away briskly to the counter.
"What four special moves do you reckon you guys
are gunna use?" Link asked his three best friends, but wasn't
exactly expecting an answer from Zelda.
"I reckon I'm just
going to go with my sword, I know more then enough techniques, and I
should be able to come up with ATLEAST four." Roy said, as he
absently mindedly played with the forks on the table.
"Yer, me to" Marth said, as he rolled up a bit of paper from his pocket and flung it at Roy.
Link couldn't help a sigh as he watched his red-haired friend pick up the ball and with his fork he was playing with, swung it at Marth. But, Marth was too quick for him and swept up a knife from beside him and flung it back at Roy. The blond haired elf boy couldn't believe his eyes, watching his two 17 year old friends sitting there, playing table-hockey with a knife and fork in a PUBLIC PLACE!
Link placed his hand into his face out of stress and shame and proclaimed: "I'm not with those two!"
This
time the two other swordsmen couldn't suppress their giggles, and
broke out into a fit of laughter, their game forgotten.
"It's
not funny!" Link said using his serious-but-funny voice and trying
his best not to break out into a fit of laughter himself
"Yes it
is!" Marth and Roy said in their singsong voices.
"How the
heck are you two always so in time with each other?" Zelda asked,
having abandoned her menu and now paying full attention to her three
friends.
"Time" Roy said, a huge grin across his face
"Spent"
Marth said, almost on auto-pilot.
"Together"
"Gives"
"We
get the point!" Link interrupted Roy before he could finish his
next sentence, his face now red out of stress of controlling his
friends, and shame for being seen in public with him.
The two
Artiaian swords men simply looked at each other, before breaking into
another fit of laughter, their faces red from laughing so much.
Link
and Zelda rolled their eyes, and simply conceded from ever trying to
control their two friends. It was a lost cause, and they both knew
it…not that they ever tried anymore.
Marth and Roy were unable to bring themselves under control until the Coffee arrived, and they both chipped in their five dollars for the coffees, and the fries, because it was their turn.
Link reached and grabbed his coffee with extra milk, Zelda took the extra sugar, Roy claimed the black one, and that left Marth with the plain one. Just the way everyone liked it.
"So Linky," Marth said, with an evil smile on his face. "What four moves are you going to select for Melee?
"I have no idea
marthy-warthy" Link said with an equally as evil smile. "I'm
sure I'll figure it out tonight he said" Taking a sip from his
coffee cup to seem nonchalant
Marth placed a hand over his chest
and pretended to be shot as he fell back against the booths wall.
"Ouch!" he exclaimed in a typical-Marth-over-dramatic way.
"I see those drama classes really paid off for you" Zelda said, turning her head to face the Artiaian prince.
Marth pushed his hand into his chest further, and his face winced even more.
"Would everyone just stop shooting at me?" Marth said, pretending to pant, lying against the back off the booth wall again.
Link and Roy smiled, and brought up their hands and placed them in the shape of a gun and started to rapidly push down their thumbs, in a shooting motion, making small gun noises each time their thumb hit their finger.
Marth did his best to fake each hit, but evuntally the steam of little noises became to much for him and he slanted against the back off the booth, and closed his eyes, his hand still over his chest. Roy smiled and blew off his finger and pretended to holster it, Link did the same, but a few seconds afterwards.
Zelda,
copying Links previous movement placed her hand in her face and said,
nearly yelling "I don't know these three!" afterwards she
couldn't help giggling.
This brought Marth back to life in a fit
of laughter, and soon all four of the friends were laughing again,
and as the fries were delivered they drifted back to talking about
the tournament, nibbling on food, who though was cute and who
wasn't.
This lasted another hour, until 6:30, at which point Zelda, face flushed, had to go home, because her curfew.
The three swordsmen also decided it would be a good idea to head home then.
After Zelda gave all three of her friends a hug, she began walking down the street towards Hyrule Castle.
"So…"
Roy started, razing his arms up
"Roy" Link said, without
taking his eyes off Zelda, making sure she got down the street ok,
like he always did "If you so much as offer me a hug I will beat
you."
Roy lowered his arms, and didn't respond.
Link turned the key to his apartment door with a sigh, with one motion, pulled the key out and swung the door open. The blond-haired swordsman threw his bag down into his blue armchair, he had never bothered to learn what material it was made out of…all he knew was that the other armchair and the couch were made out of the same stuff, and they had identical patterns. After raiding the fridge and withdrawing a bottle of Irish Spring water, the closest thing Link had ever found to Korki water.
After slumping into the other
armchair, and watching an hour of a "comedy" movie that didn't
make him laugh, Link decided it may be a good idea to check his
emails.
He felt himself spin his dark pink computer chair around
and sitting down on it, and waiting for his computer to load up.
As "Welcome to Windows" scrolled across the screen, Link tapped his name on the computer screen and was asked for his password. Link quickly tapped in Triforce, which in all fairness was a pretty obvious password, but it kept Roy out of his emails, which was good enough for the teenaged swordsman. Quickly turning on his music playlist which consisted mainly of classical songs, but there was a few Green Day songs thrown in there, Link turned to MSN messenger, and instructed it to login.
To his disappointment, the only
people online tonight were Roy and 5 or so randoms, that he really
didn't enjoy speaking to, but sometimes he had to for school or
something of the like. Before Roy could start a conversation that
would only annoy Link, he switched himself to "Appear Offline"
and checked his emails, hoping for something good….
But to no
avail, there were just the usual fwd messages that Link seemed to
get, and he could never find out why, and a crappy news letter from
The Zone which, he had stopped going to….Link decided he
would really have to get around to stopping himself from getting that
annoying letter once a month.
Link decided that
tonight was as good a time as any to choose which four "special
moves". So he made his way into his bedroom and threw open his
walk-in wardrobe.
Instead of cloths, as many teenage boys would
keep in there, Link had built in several shelves, and had put glass
cabinets over them, just to be safe. Link looked around in awe,
remembering how he used each of the weapons, and what happened with
them…it was a lot to remember. He had been through several years of
counseling because of the 7 years he lost of his childhood, and this
year he had become a normal teenager, or at least as normal as he
could be.
With great reluctance, Link pulled the shelves out, and took them out to his dinner table, which he used for homework, meals, board games, pretty much everything. After 3 trips, he had all 6 shelves set out on the table.
There were a few weapons Link
could take out straight away, such as the Megaton Hammer, because it
would be far to heavy to carry around, he had needed 6 months of
chiropractic assistance after saving Hyrule. He instantly decided he
would use the Master Sword, and combine it with his spin
magic. He had perfectly the ability to get it to give him a boost
into the air, and it could deal out a lot of damage. Next he picked
up his bow and arrow, and set it aside with his sword, Link had
become quite a marksman over time.
Next, he picked up the
boomerang, and decided he would use this as well, to symbolize how
even after he threw his childhood away, it would come back to him. He
hoped it would at any rate. Finally, Link selected his bomb bag, he
needed something that would give off a bang, and he hoped that these
would do the job.
Happy with his selection, Link left the four items on the table, and slid the shelves back into his wardrobe. Suddenly, bed became a very inviting idea as the hero of time saw the clock telling him that it was long past midnight. After showering, and brushing his teeth the blond haired Hylian hit the bed, and fell quickly into a dream world.
