The One I Love
"GO!" the announcer yelled. The match was finally underway. It was a three-way fight between Zelda, Bowser, and myself. We had only one stock though, so it might be somewhat difficult for me to win.
I immediately jumped from my platform to greet my opponent. He grabbed me and started to bite and claw me simultaneously. I felt no pain, however, as any feeling I'm capable had already been thieved by my second adversary in the match. Bowser tossed me aside as Zelda aimed a heel kick (perhaps at me, but at least I was out of the way) and nailed the overgrown turtle square in the jaw. Bowser flew across the main platform of the arena, which I should be familiar with, as it was where I kicked butt in one of my more recent adventures.
I ran to slash Bowser before the effects of gravity led him to the smaller floating platform not quite under the main platform. I was too late, but I did manage to hit him with a massive Meteor attack, driving my blade into Bowser's back, somewhat deflected but sending the giant flying to his elimination. My other adversary seemingly had forgotten about me, but I still held her vision of loveliness in my mind, as it was always there. I jumped back to the main platform and saw Zelda standing there, as if she no longer wanted to fight. She started walking toward me in a kind of strut.
"Link…" Zelda stated assuredly. I sheathed my sword and replaced my shield on my back. I held out my arms to hold her, but she wasn't quite in range yet.
"Link…" she repeated, walking slower and slower. She finally stopped, barely at arm's length. Zelda held out her hand to caress my cheek. I grasped her hand with both of my own and rubbed my cheek on it.
"Link…Wake up already!" a different voice interrupted my dreams. I awoke to a small light with wings flying recklessly around my face. Apparently, it had been nothing but a dream. I was in my bed in Kokiri forest. I had moved back in to be surrounded by my childhood friends after my latest adventure. I think it was my visit to Termina, but these dreams had been clouding my memory of everything else.
"What is it?" I asked my fairy friend, still half asleep. I thought I had gotten rid of that annoying pest years ago.
"Someone's here to see you!" Navi finally told me.
"Who?" I asked, getting myself some Lon Lon Milk to wake up.
"She's waiting at the ladder!" Navi replied. I looked up at the entrance to my house. I quickly drank my Milk and exited my small room. Good thing I'm not claustrophobic. I looked down at the base of the ladder and saw a short man in a suit.
"Joe?" I called down, even though it wasn't that much distance. Joe was the messenger at SSBM.
"Yeah! You're next match is coming up in a few hours!" the man with the suit called back.
"Alright, I'm coming." I returned to my humble abode to retrieve my weapon, the Master Sword, and my favorite shield. I had lost the Mirror Shield in a garage sale that Tingle held once, and I've never seen it since. So I had to use my trusty Hylian Shield. I jumped the short distance from my house to the ground and followed Joe back to the SSBM HQ.
Well, here's the prologue. Let me know what you think! Please! My first fic, I need to know if you think it's good. Note: Title is subject to change at my discretion.
