Wow! I got reviews so fast! Anyways, time to see what's going on through Zelda's mind and taking a step further in the story :) I've been happy lately! I've been playing FF7 a lot, and when I play those games, and I'm beating them without any trouble, I get happy. I beat Kingdom Hearts too (I don't remember if I said that in the last chappy or not). So…let's see, after we get past all this melodrama stuff, I'll start adding our humor back in ;)

Maureen: How the heck does a computer hiss at you? *weird look* Oh well, anyways, Ingo will get his punishment, don't worry, but it just might be later than usual :) Oh yeah, and please, tell me what the inside jokes are =P

Princess Zelda: LOL I know, Ingo = a bad man :( But he's having his punishment come up real soooon =P It's just going to be later than what you'd expect. I'm glad you never disliked Malon either, because she really is a good character. =P She reminds me of me, I live in the middle of no where, I love horses, and I have horses ^_^ 4 of them in fact. My next door neighbor has cows, now I just need some chickens…

Mystik Surreality: Yeah…poor her :( But she gets her happy ending as well.

Thorn Elemental: LOL heh, well… this IS an Alternative universe, therefore with a different upbringing from what she would've had if this story went a long with the game would cause her to be different in attitude, and if you live in a society of slavery, and it's a tradition well known in your family that you get a servant at age 16, then it becomes normal to you.

Silver Eyes Bright: Thank you =P And thank you for telling me Ingo's correct name. I went back and changed it all.

The Kirby Kid: Malon gets her happy ending, don't worry. I like happy endings better than sad and angsty ones :) Plus it's more of a challenge. It's easy to give a story a sad ending, but it's hard to make a happy ending without it being incredibly cheesey.

Dazzle: thank you :)

Pandydawn: Yeah, I kinda hate it when the summary of a story is good, then when you read it you get bored of it after the first few chapters =P Thanks though!

Risingdragon: Most of my chapters will be short, just simply because I try to update everyday =P Almost ALL of my chapters will NEVER be beyound 2000 words. Including this answer reviews and stuff that I love doing =P

Galaxysong9: What's kinda weird is that I was writing my story right when you reviewed =P Anyways, ugh -_- Algebra shouldn't be so hard!!! It should be…EASIER! They shouldn't give you things you never studied in class on a final exam for crying out loud! =P anyways, thank you ^_^

Anyways, enough said, let the story begin!!!

When Zelda saw the crystal, and what had happened inside of it. She felt her heart stop. She could only think, "He's more attracted to her than to me…" Ganondorf's small smirk didn't help it either. She felt like he was laughing at her. She wanted to cry and kill him at the same time.

But she ran away instead. She ran to escape the pain. She ignored the fact that she was only in her nightgown, nobody would've seen her anyways. They had been distracted by something of Ganondorf's doing away from her room.

Then she pulled her thoughts together. 'If I take his offer…' she thought to herself, 'then he'll help me get Link to like me better again…' she didn't smile. She didn't cry anymore either. She just kept a straight face. She knew she shouldn't do this. She knew she should've held her head up strong and reject his offer.

But then his face came into her mind. And she couldn't think straight anymore. It was like as if someone was forcing her thoughts to scramble so she wasn't in her right mind.

She stopped running, and went back to her room to confront Ganondorf. She had made her decision, and she wanted Link. She didn't know why, or in what way she wanted him as, but she just wanted him back to where she was the most important person in his life, and that there was no other person in his life except for her.

When he pulled her into his cloak, she felt her fear returning. She didn't want to be trapped, she just wanted to give him what he wanted. That's when she realized what he wanted. He wanted control over her. To make her do whatever he pleased.

She tried to cry out, but now all she could see was a mirror. She knew it was an illusion. She saw the mirror and she saw herself. Then she saw the darkness attack her reflection. At first she wanted to take the mirror, then shatter it. To stop the darkness before it took over her reflection. But then a soothing though entered her head. "Why do that?" It said. "It's just a reflection, it doesn't mean anything. Let it scream and fight, if it isn't strong enough to defend itself, it's not a very strong reflection, is it?"

So she just watched. She watched herself screaming in the mirror as the darkness took control, and soon it became a perfect reflection. It stood like her, staring at her, calm and with no emotions.

By the time Link had gotten back from Lon Lon Ranch, Navi was already at the castle. She waited for by the drawbridge and sat on his shoulder, but said nothing. He felt a little bad for having not believed her. He felt he owed her an apology.

So he gave her one. "Navi, I'm sorry I didn't believe you. I should've trusted your opinions."

Navi just shrugged. "Next time listen to me." She pinched his ear and folded her arms stubbornly and didn't look at him. The entered through the drawbridge and started driving through the market place to the castle. Occasionally he'd wave at the other people as they stared at him, but mainly his attention was focused on Navi. She was still upset.

"Navi…I'm sorry. What more can I say?"

She thought for a moment. She didn't want to forgive him. She wanted to remain hard and firm on her decision not to talk to him, but it was hard not to. She and him had been companions since they met. "You offended me greatly." That was all she said. She couldn't think of anything else to say.

"I just couldn't…" he thought about her face, her expressions. What she did. Somehow even now he still couldn't believe that she was like that. He knew that wasn't the real her. "I just couldn't believe she became like that. I still don't. I don't think she's really become that bad, I just think something happened to her. That isn't the real her." He stopped.

"I know it isn't." She uncrossed her arms. Her anger was starting to vanish. "But you still could've listened to me. You're so dense!" She pinched his ear again. "You're so dumb! You couldn't even put together that just MAYBE that was a diversion to get you out of the castle!"

"…What!?" He stared at her in disbelief.

She nodded her head. Link clicked the reins of the horses to make them walk faster. They had already passed the castle gates and were coming up close to the stables.

"When I was by myself I thought about it. I knew there was enough milk already. Besides, that kitchen maid was never there before. Wouldn't it be awkward that a new kitchen maid should come and wake you up and ask you to retrieve more milk when we had enough?"

He started putting it together in his head as well. But he remained silent. As soon as the stable men came to take the horses and put them up as well as take care of the carriage, he started running to the castle. He had a sure feeling that something bad was happening.

He ran up the flights of stares, passing the guards as they stared at him weirdly. He heard them laugh and make a perverted joke about him and the princess but he ignored it. He just ran up to the princess's door to her room, and knocked lightly. "Princess Zelda?"

There was no answer at first. So he knocked again and called her name out gently. There still was no answer. He opened the door and went in.

He couldn't help but smile when he saw her. She was sleeping, but she looked like a little 5 year old. She was cuddled up to an extra pillow, and her foot kept moving up and down.

He knew it was past her wake up time, so he went over to her bedside and tapped her on her shoulder. "Princess?"

At first, all she did was mumble something along the lines of, "mm perfish flemish…" then her eyes opened. She looked at him and blinked a little. "What time is it?" She shot up quickly, looking around.

"Um…well, the sun has already risen…and…"

"Oh! I over slept!" Then she suddenly realized that there was a boy her age in her room, and knew how…wrong that would look. "What are you doing in my room!" She nearly screeched it out.

"I was…waking you up!" He wondered how her attitude and mood had changed so quickly.

"OUT OF MY ROOM!" She pointed at the door and started throwing things on her nightstand at him. He quickly exited, smiling at the fact that he had his princess in her regular mood again.

But when he left, she was left with a horrible feeling. She remembered waking up, and she remembered falling asleep. And she remembered that something had happened, something important had happened. But she couldn't remember what it was. No matter how hard she tried to scrape her mind, she couldn't remember what had taken place.

And that scared her.

Woo-hoo! Back to more lighter things! Who is the new old haggy kitchen maid? What happened to Ganondorf? I'm not sure either, I still have to think about it and come up with a next chappie ^_^;;
