Link ley awake in bed at dusk,he was in Kakariko Village after
destroying the fire serpant that threatend to burn down the entire
Village. Link was now at the age of 17 and had become quite the
hero,he had become a very skilled swordsman and an archer.
-
Link came upon the distressed Village late last night,he caught a
glimpse of fire shoot up from the peak of Death Mountain. Almost
all the Villagers were standing just past the entrance way,they
were discusing their problem having to do with the Serpant.
One of the village women caught sight of Link's sword and shield,
and called out to him with plea.
He knew that it was the heroic thing to do and decided to aid the
Villagers...When Link arrived inside the core of Death Mountain he
changed into his red tunic,that one of the villagers gave to him as
a token of gratitude. Link found a large grey boulder blocking the
entrance to the dungeon,using his bombs Link blew the boulder,
scattering fragments of rock everywhere. Most of the fragments
fell into pools of lava down below,making it burst and bubble for
more. It was dark and gloomy inside the tunnel,when Link walked
a bit more he was standing infront of two huge metal doors. He
pushed on one of the doors,using both hands and reluctantly Link
was able to open it part way.
"Better get moving if I don't wanna stay here all night..."Thought
Link aloud.
He took a step inside the warm dungeon and caught sight of one
Stalfos with glowing crimson eyes. The enemy didn't particularly
have any flesh only bones and some old armor,not to mention the
rusty sword and battered shield. Link charged head on towards the
Stalfos and swung his sword aming for his neck,instead the enemy
chuckled and dodged Link by jumping over him and landing behind
him. The Stalfos thrashed his rusted sword at Link's stomach,he
quickly thrust onto his shield tightly and blocked the enemies
swings. He rolled to the side and the Stalfos dropped his guard,
that was Link's chance. All Link needed was one second to slice
through the Stalfos bone neck. After that little surprise visit,Link
shethed his sword and continued on his way.
What seemed to be hours Link found a copper door that had an odd
looking symbol on it. He slowly pushed open the door to find a
big pool of lava and rock platforms,Link quietly unshethed his
sword and braced himself for what came next.
A loud roar erupted from the Serpant and pieces of rocks from the
ceiling were falling and crashing onto the ground,luckily Link was
fast on his feet and managed to just dodge a large rock that was
falling above him. "Close call..."Said Link.
The Serpant hovered above the lava and gathered all its breath
unleashing flames,aiming at Link... The Serpant was cut of by a
sudden pain at its side,it was Link who had just shot an arrow at it.
"Bull's eye!"Link cheered.
He began to run towards it,when the Serpant slowly opened its
mouth(to blow fire at Link) He took out a single bomb and through
it inside the Serpant's mouth. It began to choke on it and then
the bomb blew up causing the Serpant to thrash it's tail wildly
around and making contact with Link's chest.
Link fell to the ground clutching his chest and his arm in pain,he
arose and limped towards the angry Serpant. Link was carefull
not to be hit by it's tail,but he didn't notice that the Serpant's claws
ripped through his flesh on the right leg. Link winced in pain and
tiredly got up once again and attacked the face of the Serpant,
causing it to roll around shutting it's wounded eyes,but little did it
know that it was headed for the pool of lava straight ahead!
Engulfed by the hot lava the Serpant's cry was heard over the small
Village,Link new he had won but needed tending to his wounds,
before they could get any worse.
"uh...I..must g..get out of h...ere..."Studdered Link.
He slowly got up ignoring the pain in his leg as he tried to walk out
of the dungeon and back to Kakariko Village.
Link was tired and weak he collapsed in the middle of the Village,
two villagers noticed a body lying on the cool grass. When the two
got up close they saw that it was the warrior sent to destroy the
Serpant,he looked weak and had a few cuts and bruises and his
tunic was ripped in some places.
"Oh dear...we must take him in over night and tend to his wounds"
Calmly whispered the lady.
"Yes...we can bandage him up and give him some healing potion
that we have in our cabinets..."Suggested the man.
They both took both of Link's arms and put them around their neck
for support,he was uncontious at the time but would probably
recooperate by morning and hopefully awaken.

Hyrule Castle
Princess Zelda opened one eye lazily and sighed at the sight of clouds creeping towards Hyrule fields.
"It will rain...no?"Said Zelda.
She stretched her legs and got out of bed,Zelda took of her night
gown and looked at herself in the mirror.
She had filled out quit a bit and grown,well 8 years had past and
she was 16 years old. Her father said that she would soon have to
find a husband and become the rulers of Hyrule.
Zelda combed her hair and put on a white spaghetti strap dress,
her hair had grown pretty long reaching three inches below her
shoulder,her eyes stayed the same blue colour.
Zelda had grown up to be a beautiful young woman,not only was
she beautiful but she had a good deal of intelligance and grace.
"Tis a miracle to see you up so early."Teased Impa.
Zelda usually woke up around noon and the King thought it wasn't
lady like for a Princess to awake after half the day had gone by.
So Impa decided to go and wake up Zelda every single morning,
until she could get up by herself before noon.
"Yes...I suppose..."Said Zelda tiredly.
Zelda walked past Impa so she could go and eat lunch for the first
time in a couple of days,since she usually woke up at noon and
breakfast had already been served.
When she walked downstairs,Zelda found numerous silver platters
filled with an assortment of different foods.
She took a couple of turkey sandwiches and a bowl of fruit salad.
Zelda thanked the cooks and seated herself in a mahogany wooden
chair,she ate her food quietly and when she finished Zelda walked
into her personal study room. Zelda loved to read books on the
History of Hyrule she could sit and read for more than two hours.
She sat in an arm chair that was very comfortable and took out
a book on Ancient Hyrule,she began to read but something at the
back of her head was reminding her about Link...and how long it
has been since he departed the Castle.
"I hope...you are okay..."Zelda whispered.
And her nose went right back into her book.
