Amaya was not your ordinary Gerudo, she was pale white instead of tan, she had purple eyes instead of a golden color, her hair was as black as the midnight sky instead of red, she wore all black instead of purple. Amaya was a loner, made fun of constantly, but her remarkable horseman skills, as well as fighting and archery skills, made up for her lack of friends. One day Amaya had woken up to find that she was late for training, Nabooru was sure to have her head this time. She got up and ran to get dressed in her usual outfit which looked like a normal Gerudo's outfit, only all black with a black fishnet shirt under the top of the outfit and black combat boots instead of those slippers. She also put on her studded dog collar and studded bracelets and put on her black eye shadow and black eyeliner. Amaya was the only other Gerudo who didn't wear that scarf on the lower part of her face. She ran outside and whistled for her pitch black horse, Chaos. 'Man am I going to get it this time' Amaya thought while riding Chaos to her training session. As soon as she got there, she noticed the other Gerudo's looking at her like she had three heads. "What?" she barked at them making them turn around. " Amaya, your late, again" Nabooru said tapping her foot impatiently. " Sorry but I woke up late" " Excuses again?" " no I'm serious" she said " fine whatever, but hurry up, we are going to have a new student " She just grumbled and took her spot. "Ok we have a new student, his name is Ganondorf, as you know, he is our new prince" Nabooru said while Amaya's head shot up. ' you've got to be kidding me!' she thought silently. Nabooru suddenly called Amaya's name to get her attention. " Amaya! I want you to take Ganondorf through the course seeing as you have remarkable talent" Nabooru said smiling " uh ok" Amaya said not really caring. " excellent, now class is dismissed" Nabooru exclaimed. Amaya walked over to Chaos and waited for Ganondorf. He finally came on a black horse that looked almost menacing in a way. " you ready?" Amaya said in a monotone voice " yes now lets go" Ganondorf said impatiently . Amaya got a head start and grabbed her black bow and red arrows while still riding Chaos. She rode through the course and hit a bulls-eye on every target and waited for Ganondorf to finish. " you do have remarkable talent" Ganondorf said while dismounting his horse. "Thank you now lets try fighting" she said while laughing at his dumbfound expression. " Trust me, its part of the course" Amaya said while Ganondorf nodded. She walked over to her horse and pulled out a blade with a skull on it ( A/N :think of Paine's warrior blade if you've ever played Final Fantasy X-2 ) while Ganondorf got a regular sword. They both started fighting until Ganondorf fell. " how is it that you've managed to beat me twice?" " I don't have any friends here so I trained with blades, archery, and horseback instead of hanging out with others" Amaya said with the same monotone voice she had before. " If you don't mind me asking, what does 'Amaya' mean?" " it means night rain. The course is over" she said walking over to Chaos and mounting him. Ganondorf never got to say another thing before she rode away, but he never expected her to run from Gerudo Valley, after all, she was only 15, where was she going to go?
Amaya never stopped once after she left Gerudo Valley, she was never going back to that place. Nobody had realized that she had all the stuff that she needed , all here weapons, her bow, all of her clothes, and her make-up, with her that day. Chaos liked to run, so he kept running. She decided that she would head to Lon Lon Ranch and work there. It was almost nightfall when Amaya reached the ranch. " Hello?" she called still on Chaos. " Hello there, my name's Malon, what's yours?" " Hi I'm Amaya, I came here from Gerudo Valley" " really! You don't look like one of them" " yes I know. I was wondering if I could stay here. I'll help with deliveries and any other work you need me to do" " sure, I'm positive that my father won't mind, why don't you put your horse in the corral and come inside" " thank you" Amaya said while riding Chaos into the corral. She turned and walked to the place were Malon was standing. " so how old are you?" " I'm 15" " alright, you can share a room with me, or have your own room if you want" " I think I'll share a room with you , just so I don't feel lonely" Amaya said smiling. It felt nice to have some one to talk to. Amaya had gotten ready for bed when Talon, came in the room. " Hey Malon, oh, who's this?" " this is Amaya, she came from Gerudo Valley and she wants to know if she can stay here and help with the farm work" " a Gerudo you say? She doesn't look like a Gerudo" " yes I know, I've been teased endlessly by the Gerudo's for my difference in appearance" " well, no matter, stay here for as long as you would like" Talon said " Thank you so much" said Amaya. " Well, good night girls" said Talon shutting the door. " Your father, he seems nice" Amaya said " Oh he is nice, a little scatterbrained at times, but a wonderful father none the less" Malon said laughing. " We should get some sleep" Amaya said.
Fast Forward 8 years
One morning Amaya woke up and saw Malon feeding Chaos. ' hmm, he seems to like her' Amaya thought while getting ready. As soon as she got to the corral, Chaos ran over to her and nuzzled her face. " hey there boy" she said stroking his cheek. " he's an amazing horse" " thank you, I got him when I was just 5, before my mother died" " oh I'm so sorry" " its ok, what do you need me to do today?" Amaya said getting off of the topic of her mother. "we need you to deliver this letter and milk to the princess Zelda, and don't worry about the guards, as long as you have that letter, you won't get kicked out" Malon said while Amaya saddled up Chaos. Amaya took the letter and the cart filled with milk, attached the cart to Chaos's harness, mounted Chaos, and rode off to Hyrule Market. As soon as she got there, she received strange looks from passerby. ' what haven't these people seen a Gerudo before?' Amaya thought while riding up to the castle. When she got there, she was met with a firm " Halt" from one of the guards. " What is your business here?" " I'm here to deliver this milk and letter to princess Zelda" She said firmly " Very well, you may pass" " Thank you" she said while continuing on her way. They let the draw bridge down and she dismounted Chaos, taking the four crates of milk, and the letter, with her. She walked until she saw a strange woman walking with a seven year old boy with green clothes. She smiled at the woman and continued on her way. Amaya came to a garden where a little girl was watching something through the window while she was standing in the garden. " Hello" Amaya said to the girl. "Hello, who are you?" " My name is Amaya, I work at Lon Lon Ranch and they sent me to deliver this letter and milk to you" " why thank you Amaya, would you like to know why I'm staring through the window?" " yes sure" " come over here" Amaya walked over to her and looked through the window and saw a man with a Gerudo like appearance, only with green skin and orange hair. ' he looks so familiar' thought Amaya. " That man's name is Ganondorf, and I feel that he is up to no good" said princess Zelda. ' Ganondorf, why does that sound familiar' Amaya thought to herself. Just then Ganondorf looked out the window and noticed Amaya standing there, his mouth fell open. " did he notice you?" " yes he did" " oh" " I must be leaving, take care princess Zelda" Amaya said bowing and walking away. She went back to Lon Lon Ranch and packed her stuff, she was headed back to Gerudo Valley. " your leaving?" " yes Malon, I have to go back, I have to face them" " well, you know your always welcome here" Malon said. Amaya gave her a hug and mounted Chaos. She looked back at Malon and Talon, waved good bye, and then rode back to Gerudo Valley.
