LL: hey guys and gals. Me again. It seems I've hit another mark. I may consider using Domina in another one of my fics. He may be a good one in CC. Who knows, anyway on with the fic.
"Halt" the guards stop Domina at the gates.
"oh, hey Gris, hey Grit. Back up on guard duty so soon, I thought I had hurt you to much. Guess I was wrong" Domina holds back a laugh.
"your not going past!" they both say.
"I bet the queen will think different" he says pointing out her coming to the gate.
The Guards kneel down in respect. "your majesty"
"let the boy in. and do not prevent him again" her soft tone shows that something is on her mind, she walks away in much of a way that looks like a shuffle in that gown.
Domina walks on through and the guards glare him down from behind. The gates close and they resume there posts.
"Domina I hope you come here in better spirits" Zelda had an assuasive tone now.
"by what do you mean" Domina says acting childish on purpose.
"we have no time for games come, I need you to come to the royal suite"
"Queen, I thought you were saving yourself" Domina acts surprised.
"I said we have no time for games, another remark like that and the guard will have there way with you. There is something there I hide from everyone and I wish you to have it"
Domina restrains himself from any further comment, almost turning his face blue.
"the hero once held it and now I must pass it on to you. You had proven yourself worthy of it and I must reward you"
"no thanks, my body still hurts from the beating from the spider, I don't think I want something of yours inside me too" SLAP!
"your last warning! This is a dark time and everything is being slowly enveloped by darkness"
"I know it's much better for me that way. Incase you didn't know my aura doesn't work in sunlight"
"I know, this is why I want you to accept"
Zelda reaches under her mattress and pulls out a shining green stone.
"the Kokiri Emerald!" Navi points out.
"I know that you stupid fly" Domina says to the wrong side.
"I was able to take this away from the alter before the others were robbed. Some Gerudo thieves had stolen the gems. And since you have proven you have courage"
"arrogance" Domina happily points out. "I have arrogance. They are to different things. With arrogance you do things without thought of the outcome"
"fine, I have no time for this. For proving that in the face of danger, that even arrogance can prevail" Zelda seemed annoyed with that last part. "I present you with, The Kokiri Emerald"
Domina snatches it in a true real life style. And looks at it up and down.
"don't look like much" he bites it to see if it's a real gem. "how much ya think the market price is for it?"
"you stupid idiot!" Navi curses.
"this will not leave your side" Zelda says as though giving an order. "you are the hero of time and you will act like one. Now go, to Kakoriko City"
It had been some time since the last successful hero had been and the village had triumphed a lot. It had become as busy as the castle's market on good days. But the soot from the volcano had darkened the city for a while now. Domina would be the first there in years.
"that place" Domina says in disgust. "I liked it better when the sun did shine on it. Now there is nothing but sin there, a bunch of women showin' off what they got. I hardly want to be there"
"Corisia is there waiting for you" Zelda says in a sly tone.
"unh, my childhood friend?" Domina sighs. "that girl is always where she doesn't need to be. And what makes you think I'd go just because she is there"
"I hold wisdom, I know the promise you made to her a long time ago"
flashback
A heavy rain had been falling for days and days on end. A little girl with only a small rag to cover herself was in the midst of the sandy tombs of an old fortress. Her mother and father had just been killed, in front of her very own eyes. Her tears mixed with the pool of rain under her. Even the sound of her tears were covered under the heavy dips. A thick fog made from the humidity prevented long sight from seeing her. She had no hope of ever being found. Soon a large wind came and blew the rag away from her, she was left with no cover and left to die…
"hmph, you think she'll get me to go then your mistaken. But if she can help me get out of this hero thing then I'll go"
"she'll teach you a tune, this tune will grant you access to areas that will shorten the length of the quest"
"I think I know where this is going, it's the Song of Slumber I taught her a while ago. I know that one" Domina sings the majestic tune with his own voice. It was like an orchestra was within his very soul as he sung the tune. The animals that flew over head became tired and came down atop the castle to rest, and even the queen had dozed a bit. She woke up in a snap and looked at Domina.
"no, no. I knew you had that one too (yawn) she has hold of the royal family song. Please learn it and save the world"
"yeah, yeah. Good night queen" and as though on cue the queen had fall asleep on her throne.
Domina had no problem getting out of the castle gates for his song had put everyone there asleep. He made his way to the city and looked about the place. His aura returned and he brought back his former tough guy attitude with it. He saw a few old faces that must be offspring to the same people that lived here. There was the new Cuckoo lady at her fence, still allergic to them. The town jogger. And the man on the roof. Other faces where ones that Domina would rather ignore.
"hey sailor, want some fun" a women eyed him up and growled sexily.
"unless your offering to have your body spilt in a bloody mess then I suggest you seek a home and live there until I leave this hell hole. Domina had his hand on his sword to intimidate as well has warn. The women just waltz on up the stairs into the Bazaar. Domina made his way to the well and looked in it. Full of water and windmill running. He sat on it's edge and looked up at the covered sky.
"such beauty it holds" he sighs. "why can't I live at home again"
"hey" a perky voice scares Domina and forces him to fall in the well. Domina had no time to react with but a yelp, forcing most of the air out of his lungs. Domina slowly sunk to the bottom of the well and his vision rippled and bubbled with his view. Soon it went dark.
Flashback
The girl cries in the rain, her rag gone, and her life soon to join it. She shivers and sneezes. But after that she didn't feel the rain on her back anymore. "oh, no" she thought. "I must have died" she let's out a giant weep and buries her face in her hands. "mommy daddy, why did you leave me!" she soon felt a warm feeling on her back. She looked up out of her hands, it was still raining hard as it was, but the sound of it hitting the sand was not present. She looked up to see a large black cloth covering her. And a hand holding it out, a man stood there looking at her, rubbing her back. "quickly now we must move" he said. "you could catch a cold, or even die". The man picked her up and covered her in the coat he was using. He then took her into the fortress and set her down on a bed of hay. He lit a fire to warm her up and sat with his back toward her. The only features she could see was that he had lengthy black hair, and attire to match. Who are you?" she managed to ask. The man just shushed her and sang a tune, and before she knew it she had fallen asleep.
Domina hit the bottom of the well, the air trapped in his mouth let go. One final bubble to show he had nothing left but to die. The girl whimpered and worried atop the well and didn't know what to do. She then finally calmed down and took a deep breath. She then jumped in the well and dive to the bottom. She did her best to hold the air for the length she needed and got to Domina. She then used the bars to help her get him back up to the surface.
She spread him out on the ground and worried that she may not have gotten him in time. She looks at him, he's barely breathing, he won't make it. The girl then pushes on his mid section. Knowing that this was a form to save someone's live, she didn't know for what life threat but she wanted to try anything. Water came from the mouth of Domina but no breathing still. She had only one thing left to do.
She slowly leaned over Domina's head. His mouth open and his life on the line. She slowly came toward him and closed her eyes. In the same moment he opened his to see her coming toward her. Domina coughed up more water and stood up frightening the girl.
"what (cough, cough) are you (cough) thinking (cough)" Domina says in semi anger
"I was trying to save your life" the girl say innocently. "I scared you by accident and you fell into the well, you almost drowned" tears came to her eye, she hid them behind her hands before he saw them. But Domina knew what he had done.
"it's okay, I didn't recognize you at first. Please don't cry Corisia" Domina steps toward her and embraces her. "I am glad, I should thank you, I saved your life, it's only natural that you choose to save mine"

sorry to cut it there but I just thought that this one was long enough. Review and tell me what you think, and if you didn't get it Domina can't swim.
