A/N – this chapter will be in the first pov as this will be in the reader's point of view, since the reader (you) is basically supposed to feel like they're in their character which is (Name), so . . . Yeah. (maybe there'll be a little romance in this chapter between you and Link? though maybe not a whole lot )
ENJOY!

I frowned at the Twilight creature as I watched it shriek in agony as it was slain by Hyrule's beloved Hero. Midna looked away and I pat her on her shoulder, which caused the Twilight Princess to nod and smile sadly at me and Link.
She looked so broken, but what ruler wouldn't? She's watching her own kingdom be ruled by someone who corrupted her people into those lowly creatures; the creatures that fear the power of the light and reside in the darkness.
"I'm alright, you two." She assured, standing upright and breathing out a small sigh. "Come on, we have to go to Lake Cress."
I looked at her retreating figure and shook my head. The action didn't go unnoticed by Link, who chuckled lightly and eyed me intently.
"She'll be fine after we finish this, alright?" He said, grasping my hands and making me look him in the eye.
"And then we can go home, and the Twilight people can be happy. . ." I muttered though it was loud enough for Link to hear and he nodded, letting go of my wrists and pecking my cheek lightly.
I smiled and returned the small gesture of affection. Holding his hand in mine, we eventually caught up to Midna, who had a smirk on her features and a knowing look in her eyes.
"You lovebirds are so adorable!" Her smirk shifted into a huge grin and clasped her hands together, giggling. Link rolled his eyes, a small blush evident on his features. Though I bet my cheeks were red as well.
Her giggling stopped and she smiled, looking over at the lake that she was in a hurry to get to moments before. I followed her gaze and I smiled at the view.
"Hmm . . . The two of them would love to see a place like this. . ." Link stated, smiling as he looked at the sight of the Twilight sky reflecting onto the lake's surface. A calming, yellow hue of light was just bursting from below the horizon.
"The Twilight Realm is so . . . beautiful; even though it isn't being ruled by its rightful queen." I sighed, looking over at Midna and shot a determined look toward the castle that loomed ominously, now drenched in an evil aura.
It was far from the lake and it looked as though it overlooked the entire land of Twilight. Midna smiled, shifting her gaze from the lake and looked down at the glass orb she held in her hand, smile quickly fading from her features, leaving her face devoid from emotion.
"We can rest here for a while. I need to recollect my thoughts." She said and Link and I nodded, giving some space to Midna and sitting on the very edge of the shore of the lake.
"What do you think will happen once we go home?" I inquired and Link closed his eyes, humming before opening his eyes again and shrugging.
"I don't really know. I don't think much will change, though." He answered, lying down on his back. I chuckled at his antics, before snatching his green hat from his hand and placed it on my head.
He opened one eye and smiled at my actions, before sitting upright and snatching his hat back and brushing the hair out of his vision. Link tried to stifle down a yawn, but that didn't go unnoticed by me.
"I'm sure you're pretty exhausted. Go ahead and sleep, Link." I said and placed a sweet peck on his lips. He frowned but obliged and lied back down on the ground, soon enough falling asleep – as shown by his relaxed expression and slower breathing.
I grinned at his sleeping form, before standing up and walking over to Midna. I sat down next to her and looked into the orb she held, only to see a woman – who I'm guessing is the sorceress, Lorana – yelling at a Twilight creature and almost making the poor creature disintegrate to nothing when she jabbed her scepter onto the floors of the castle.
"Do you see this, (Name)?" She growled her grip on the glass orb getting tighter, "This is why I must stop her. . . This is what she's doing to my people, and I cannot let it go on for any longer. My people have suffered enough already."
I noticed her glossy eyes and I frowned, placing a reassuring hand on her shoulder, "Hey, we're going to fix this, alright? Link and I will help your kingdom again, and we'll happily help you if anything goes downhill ever again."
"I appreciate it, (Name), but what about Hyrule? What about your children, and the people you care about?" I raised an eyebrow at her second question.
"How did you . . .?" She smiled before shifting the vision on her glass orb to that of a girl playing a wooden ocarina. It soon faded to black before a vision of a boy practicing his sword skills came to view.
"I could see them practicing with the two of you when they were just 7 years old," She smiled, as she looked me in the eye. "You and Link make great parents, y'know."
"Heh . . . Thanks, Midna." I thanked, sheepishly scratching the back of my neck and smiling a bit.
"I hope my sister is fine. . ." Midna muttered and I hardly caught what she said when it finally clicked
"I haven't seen Luna with you, or anywhere, in fact. . . I hope she's fine." I said, before Midna stood up, and offered her hand toward me.
I took it and walked over to Link, while Midna decided to light a fire a few feet from where he slept.
It had started to turn dark, and I smiled, finding that the night sky was just like the one in the world of Light. Even if this may be the realm of Twilight, it is basically a form of balance in the world, along with the Light realm.
"Hey, Midna?"
"Hmm?" She looked up from the crackling fire.
"We will get your kingdom back, don't worry." I said, a determined look in my eyes. Midna smiled, a look of awe on her features and nodded.
"I trust that the both of you will." She stood up and walked to the lake. The Twilit girl looked back at me before pointing at Link.
"Wake up sleepyhead over there! We got some fish to catch!" She laughed and I chuckled, shaking the green clad hero's shoulders.
He stirred and then eventually came to his senses, smiling at me and planted his lips onto mine. I pulled away and pulled him to his feet, walking toward Midna, who was still trying to regain her breath.
