Chapter 4: The Funeral
Disclaimer: Don't own Zelda stuff, if I could own anything Zelda, I would own Link, because he is so cool, and he has the charm to get any girl.
A/N: Thanks for the reviews you guys. It really inspires me to write more. I am glad you like this story and I hope that the chapters to come are as equally as great as the first few. Also, I think the whole elves having sex thing is a little creepy, I do it because one of my first Zelda crushes was with Saria. (Teen) When I first played The Ocarina of Time, and I saw Saria's relationship with Link, I really hoped that they became more than friends. Whatever, on with the story.
-----------------------
The next morning, Link woke up without Saria by his side. Instead, a note was present on the bed. Link got off of his bed and put on his tights as well as his boots. He picked up the letter.
Link, I'm sorry for having to leave early in the morning, I hope you forgive me. My fairy came by and told me that there is going to be a funeral for Navi. So I left, if you wish to come, but I don't recommend it, it will be at the cemetery. I want you to be happy, Link, so please, smile more often, I know that I am here to protect you but I want you to feel safe when I am not around. I will come over and sleep over for a few nights to help you, to watch over you, and to protect you.
I love you
Saria.
A kiss sealed the letter, her green lipstick covered her signature, Link pressed the kiss against his lips and folded it back. He left the room and he approached a guard that stood in front of his room. He clears his throat and begins to talk to him.
"Excuse me, guard?" The guard threw his immediate attention to Link.
"Yes, master Link?" The guard salutes Link.
"Did you happen to see a green haired girl walk out of my room not long ago?"
"Yes I did. She left quite some time ago, it seemed that she was in a rush."
"Please do not report this to the princess, she will have my head if she found out."
"Yes, sir." Link walks out the hall, he exit's the main doors and leaves the town. He runs to the cemetery which is about ten minutes from the castle, if he ran, which he did. He ran as fast as he could, before he can even see the cemetery, he was stopped by Zelda on her white horse.
"Link! Where are you going?" Zelda jumps out of her horse, she almost falls but Link stops her from falling.
"I'm heading to Navi's funeral. Why did you stop me?"
"I saw you leaving the castle quite suddenly, and began to worry. So I left to see what's up. Wait, Navi died? When?" Zelda lifted her right brow as she looked in to Link's green eyes more passionately than ever before. His bangs fell from their place and Zelda fixed it.
"Navi died, or we found her two days ago."
"We?"
"Yeah, I mean the villagers and I went to search for her because she was missing, then Saria found her in the Lost woods, pale, lifeless, and lightless." Zelda covered her face with her hands.
"I didn't know, Link. Are you okay?" Her voice became sympathetic.
This is weird, why is Zelda showing me compassion all of a sudden? I don't think it's all about Navi. It couldn't be, she never showed me this kind of friendship to me, she usually is a cold-hearted bitch, and a emotionless serpent. But now, she is this kind hearted, sympathetic angel. I am scared, what to do?
"I think that I should be there, I am going to go, I suggest that you return to the castle at once. She was my guardian, I cannot allow myself to miss this, sorry, Zelda." With that he leaves her in the dust. Zelda's heart is truly broken. She couldn't believe what exactly just happen. Her plan must now go in to action. When Link returns tonight, she will take him back with the power of seduction.
Link finally arrives at the funeral, he sees that they are barely going to burry her. He runs after them.
"Wait!" He screams from a distance, the villagers and fairies all turn to Link as he jumps the white gates to get them. "Wait!" He catches up with the people. "I never ever had the chance to say good-bye to my guardian, Navi." He looks around, the people rests their hands on their chest as the bow for a prayer. He notices Saria crying, he pulls her from the crowed and hugs her.
"I just want to say that you have been good to me, you guided me when I was down, and you helped me when the odds were against me. I really cherished what we had, I didn't mean to shut you out like that, Navi." He knells on his knees, he covers his eyes and face as he starts to cry. His voice became more and more upsetting as he continued. "You showed nothing but love and respect for me, and when you really needed me, I shut you out like you meant nothing to me! I am sorry, Navi. You are everything an elf could ever ask for, I didn't mean to do it." His tears ran down his face more rapidly, his voice became lost in his cry. He cradles to his knees as he cries for a friend that he lost. Saria rushes to him, she embraces him as he got up. He hugged her, and he cried on her shoulder. "I am sorry for I have done to you, Navi, if only I could take it back. I would. I am sorry." His cry became more depressed, as he walks away from the burial site. Saria wraps her arms around him as his tears ran to her dress. She didn't mind, she cried with him. "If only I wasn't so depressed, Navi would still be here with me."
"Link, there is nothing more you can do, I am pretty sure that she can now rest in peace now that you have poured your heart out to her." Her tears ran down to her chin, Link removes his eyes from her dress, and looks at Saria.
"You really think so." Link's cry began to calm.
"I know so. She heard you, I know she did. I know she has forgiven you." Link sobs on her shoulder. They walk back to the village. His face became depressed, but Saria has helped him today. Now he can open his eyes again for she has shown him a new light.
-----------------------------------
A/N: I almost cried writing this chapter. I feel sad for our lost. Link pouring his heart out like that is just upsetting. He cries for her.
I hope you guys like this chapter. I think this is my best chapter yet.
