Disclaimer: I do not own Zelda blah blah blah.
Is everyone trying to torture me, or is it just my parents. I got in a fight with my mom, and she made me turn of the computer. I couldn't turn it on until today. That's why it took so long to get this chapter up. So read it and Review. Yes that's an order.
,.oOOo.,
Chapter Two: Watch out for the wolfies!
I woke up to Navi shaking me.
"GET UP YOU LAZY BUM!" she screamed in my ear.
"AHHHHHHHHHH!" I screamed.
"We over slept! We have to get to the castle!" Navi said pulling me out of bed.
Hearing that, I quickly got dressed. How could I have forgotten? I was looking forward to going to see Zelda all the time I slept!(does that make sense?)
"Come on Navi! We can't be late!" I said hurrying out the door. I was in such a hurry I didn't bother with the ladder and just jumped down. I ran up the pathway, and headed for the way out of the village.
BAM! I went sprawling to the ground!
"OW!" I heard Saria say. "Link, watch where you're going!"
"Saria, sorry. I was in a hurry." I said helping her up.
"What's the rush?" she asked. "I was just coming to give you these pickles." She pointed to a broken jar on the ground that had once had pickles in it.
Navi flew down and bit into one.
"Don't worry," She assured us. "There still good."
I gave Navi a thumbs up sign. Leave it to Navi to make sure food is OK, and not Saria.
"Um… not to be rude, but I'm in a hurry, Zelda wants to see me, and she seemed a little worried." I said staring at the ground.
"Oh, OK." Saria said looking disappointed. "I'm sure Mido can help me."
It took all that I had to ignore my jealousy, and nodded to her. She nodded back, and walked towards Mido's house. Idiot! I thought. But there were more important things to do at the moment. Why do important things always happen at the wrong time?
I ran through the hole onto the bridge. I was almost across when Navi stopped me.
"Look!" She said pointing out to the forest(if fairies can point. o.O).
I looked into the forest and what I saw took my breath away. There had to be 10, no 20 of the wolf things!
"I've never seen, or heard of them traveling in packs like that." Navi said in aw. "They usually only travel in pairs."
"Tag you're it!" I shouted pushing Navi down towards the wolf things.
"AWWWW!" Navi screamed, getting the wolves attention. They watched her hit the ground, then they all pounced at her. I knew she would fly away anytime now.
She didn't.
She was frozen in fear. If she didn't act fast she would be wolfie food. And I'm sure that's not a pleasant thing to be. Thinking fast, I got out my pull thing.(my brain died, the thing that pulls you up or stuff toward you.) and pointed it at her. I waited a minute. Then another. The wolfies were circling her.
Finally, one pounced. I shot and the hook grabbed her and pulled her up.
"WHY DIDN'T YOU FLY AWAY?" I screamed at her. "Leave it to you to get frozen in shock. Lucky I was there to save your but." No it didn't cross my mind, that if I hadn't been there, she would have never fallen down there in the first place.
"I wasn't frozen in shock." Navi said calmly. "I was naming them. There's Bob, Bill, Fred, Tyrone…"
"Whatever," I said rolling my eyes. "Were gonna be late." With that I ran towards Hyrule Castle.
It took me about twenty minutes to reach the market place. (Navi just had to go to the bathroom, even though I told her to go before we left.) I sat on a bench to catch my breath.
"HELP, HELP!" I heard someone scream. I ignored it hoping someone else will take care of it.
No one did.
I ran in the direction it was coming from. It sounded like it was coming from an alleyway. I turned a corner and saw a little girl cornered by two dogs. Now these dogs weren't the massively big, mean, dogs you would expect to corner somebody. These were, shin high puppies!
It looked like the girl was about to jump out of her skin. I walked over to the girl, and was greeted by the two puppies tongues. I knelt down to pet them.
"Are you OK?" I asked the girl.
"I am now!" she said. "You're my hero!"
OoooooK. This girl was freaking me out.
"So I'll be going then." I said backing away. She gave me a devilish smile.
When I turned the corner I ran as fast as my legs could carry me, towards the castle. Navi flew out of my hat, were she had been sleeping.
"She was cute." Navi said giggling.
I took out my sword and swiped it at Navi. I don't have the time, or patience for obnoxious fairies.
Finally, I came to the vine on the wall that lead to the castle. Impa had told me to not be seen, so I couldn't let the guy at the gate see me. I expertly climbed up the vine, and walked to the hole in the ground. I quickly climbed down the ladder. Now for the tough part I thought.
I opened the door and looked out. There was one guard on the path going to my right, and one by a tree on the hill in front of me.
I watched for a little bit, then noticed that the guards would walk, stand the walk back, and stand. I just had to wait for the guard by the tree to walk, and then dart to the bush that was conveniently located next to the tree. One step at a time. I thought.
I waited until the guard started to walk away and then made my move. I started to move slowly at first, then sprinted and dove into the bush. I peeked through and saw, hundreds of guards! This was going to be hard.
I new that on the far side there was a ledge with bricks going up it. I needed to get there.
Luckily there were plenty of trees in the field, all with bushes next to them. All I had to do was wait then dash to a bush. Easier said than done.
After about twenty minutes of waiting, then dashing, I finally made it to the last bush. A quick look around and I saw two guards sleeping by a tree. Guess they figured no one would get past the other 98.
Guess again.
As quietly as I could I made my way over to the brick wall. One guy snored, I froze. After waiting a few minutes, I climbed up onto the ledge. I looked over at the gate about 100 yards ahead of me and saw that there were two guards by it. I walked along until I came to the moat. I took a breath and jumped in.
The current was pretty strong, so I just relaxed and enjoyed the ride. I was to far down so the guards didn't see me.
About five minutes later, I came to a part were I could climb out without being seen. I jumped through a hole in the wall, and walked down the hallway.
There were no guards around so I headed for Zelda's room. I was almost there when I heard footsteps. Uh-oh. Doing a quick 360 I saw that there was no place to hide. I held my breath.
"Impa!" I said when I saw who came around the corner. I was happy that it wasn't a guard, or anybody else for that matter.
"Link! Thank goodness you are here, head on up. They are waiting for you." Impa said. She looked worried.
I nodded and went up a long flight of stairs until I came to Two Giant doors. Holding my breath, I knocked.
I heard footsteps coming toward the door. They stopped, and the door opened.
In the doorway stood a frightened looking Zelda. She looked as if she had been crying, and in her eyes I saw dread.
"Link, I need your help." Zelda said.
,.oOOo.,
Sorry to end it on a cliffhanger, but I'm getting tired, and it's late. The next chapter should be up in a few days. What is the big emergency, why was Impa and Zelda so worried? All that and more coming up in chapter 3: my life as a hero, phase two!
Review, damn you, REVIEW!
