Cry......
"Hmmm......UNCLE!!!! It's going to rain today!" Malon yelled from the field to her uncle walking towards her from the house. "I know dear. Ok Malon I've got bad news and some good news. Which do ya want first?" Ingo asked her. Malon stood there as if in thought for a second and then replied," I will take the bad news first so the good news won't make the bad news so bad." She smiled at her uncle. "Wow, nothing can dampen your spirits since you and that Link fella' got together huh?" Malon nodded vigourously.
It had been almost a week since Link had left to go to the castle. The snow had dried up, and all that was left was the cold weather.Link had sent her a letter the day before to keep her from worrying. The letter reassured her of their love and that what she had gone through with him was not just a dream. This made her especially happy and not even chores dampened her spirits.
"Ok well here ya go. Bad news is we're out of medicines and we need them for my cold. So you'll have to travel through the rain since it just started sprinklin'. Good news is ya get to go into town and distract yourself for a while, and I will do all your chores for ya. So enjoy your day off Mal." He said sheepishly thinking she wouldn't go for it and he would have to go into town. "WOW really? Thanks unlce! Ok I will arrive a little before sun down. YAY!! My day off!!! Oh and I hear that the King is going to announce his daughters wedding to some guy I don't know who he is but oh how much fun I'm going to have! Oh! and I'm sure Link will be there to see Zelda engaged! I get to see him!!! Ok I'll get the horses ready and-" "They are all ready just hop on and get goin' or you'll be late!" Ingo interrupted. Malon just smiled and ran off to the wagon, hopped on and sped out of the ranch." Oh boy, she's mad about that fella'. " Ingo said outloud to himself.
-AT THE CASTLE-
King Christopher grinned at his son getting ready for the announcement. "Isn't it perfect son? The saddest day of your miserable life and it's raining outside. The Godesses are with you in your pain aren't they. Too bad they can't do anything." Link glared at his father through the mirror thinking only on how much pain Malon would feel when she found out. He had sent her a letter in which he said that he loved her. That he missed her and that he would try and return soon. Sadly he would not return, he only gave her false hope hurting her more in the end.
"Now, now son. That glaring isn't getting you anywhere. Just remember what I told you. Act happy! Soon you will be king of the two most important kingdoms on earth! Oh and don't forget your speech either. I shall leave you now in the company of Quintus. Oh and, that letter you sent to her, she will pay for it today. I made sure of it" Link turned immediatly to face his father with pain clear in his eyes. "What did you do?!" Link asked harshly gritting his teeth. His father just grinned maliciously and turned his back on his son. He began walking out but just before he left he said evily, "I simply made sure she was in town today. Don't worry, Terry will keep her entertained while the ceremony begins." and then he left chuckling on his way out.
Link balled his hands into fists and smashed the mirror infront of him. He screamed in agony not of the wound on his knuckles but of what his father had done. Link was expecting Malon to hear it as a rumor not to see it live.' Now she will see me lie to everyone. She will see me smile with radiance and vow my eternal love for Zelda for herself. BUT IT"S ALL A LIE!!!' "ITS ALL A LIE!!!" the last part of his thoughts had escaped out of his lips and he fell to his knees."Malon..." he whisphered as Quintus walked in.
He noticed the broken mirror, his master's wounded hand, an Link's broken form on the floor."Sire" he said sadly. "I suppose you have heard that Malon will be here in town?" Link asked Quintus. "Yes, Sire. I have heard." He nodded slowly and spoke with sympathy. "She will see me up there Quintus. She will see me lie! The only thing is she will believe it just like all the rest!! I don't want that Quintus!! Goddesses why is my life so unfair!" Quintus had heard the door open slowly and hear the heavy steps of a Knight's shoes.
"Heh, life isn't fair my prince. But it's not your fault, it's just your inheritance. Think about it, if you weren't a prince you would be able to live happily ever after with your true love." The knight smiled at seeing the prince fallen to the ground as if to surrender."Terry for once! Mind your own buisness!" Quintus yelled out. "Hey, don't yell at me it's the truth. If he wasn't a prince this wouldn't have happened to him." Terry walked around the room ane knelt beside Link. "Don't worry Link, I'll be there for her like you never were." Link looked up and grabbed a hold of Terry's chest armor and lifted him above his head.His eyes were lit up in flames and his voice hard and cold. He looked ready to kill an entire army. "Touch her, you die. Play with her, you die. Make her infatuated with you, you die. " Terry looked down at Link and grinned.
"Tell me prince. Why would you care? You clearly can't have her? Why not let her be happy with some one else. Some one who won't cheat on her. Some one like me. Think about it prince. If you were truly meant to be with her would this have happened? Would you have been seperated by such an obstacle?" His words had dug deep into Link's heart. He dropped Terry on the floor with a 'thud' and turned around to face Quintus." Leave now Terry, if you don't want my sword to mingle with your tongue and throat." Terry got up and headed for the door. He turned just before stepping out and added,"Remember prince. This wouldn't have happened if you were truly meant to be." and he waved goodbye to Link.
Just before he stepped out Link shot an arrow at his hand and pierced it right at the palm. Terry grit his teeth in agony and left the room quickly. Link smirked, "Heh, foolish knight. Next time it'll be your throat." He then turned to Quintus the temporary evil fully out of his eyes. "Foolish but with an open mind. He's right in one thing that I am now beginning to wonder. Was I ever truly meant to be with Malon?" Quintus touched his shoulder and sighed sadly. "I don't think we will know that now. One thing I will tell you my dear prince. Don't be fooled by the current event's. Something unexpected always changes the course of the future that you now see. For the better or the worse." He bowed gracefully and left his master's chamber.
'Something always changes the course of the future that you now see....' Link thought with hope finding it's way back to his heart, but dropped a little again, 'For the better.....or the worse....' He closed his eyes and turned back to his shattered mirror. He looked down at his forgotten wound and remembered what a bad habit that was. Smashing things with his fist and then ending up with a wounded hand.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
~*Give me your hands, you hurt yourself while in your rage."
'heh, I set my hands on the table to let her know where I had wounded my
hands.' "Must be painfull." 'I nodded' "So what were you going to say?*~
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Link smiled at the fond memory. Malon had taken care of his wounds the last time he had done the same.' Malon....'
-IN TOWN-
"Hmmm, medicines...check. New scarf.....check. Ooooo pretty bracelet not check." Malon smiled at the sales man as she walked towards him eyeing the beautifully crafted bracelet he had in his post. She stydied the item for a moment then held it out to the man. "How much is it Sir?" The man smiled and looked at her. "The bracelet is made of pure white gold. The carvings on it were hand made by the royal craftsman in Osirian. It's our latest shipment.The Queen from there owned the very same one your holding." Malon's eyes went wide at the man's tale and then found it quite hard to believe.
"So it's stolen.?" Malon asked him curiously at what his reply would be. "Why no miss. I sell items that the royal house no longer wants. They were going to melt it to make some other piece of jewerly but in my buisness I take what they are about to waste. Such as the lovely item your holding. It's a hefty price for it too." Malon raised an eyebrow and looked him in the eye. "So how much is it?" "100 rupees" the man stated without a care in the world. Malon's eyes had gone wide and it looked like she was about to faint. "100 rupees!? Oh my goddesses. No wonder you still have it in stock." She said sarcastically and looked fondly at the bracelet having liked it a lot. But she knew she didn't have the money to buy it.
"Oh well. Thanks anyway." She set it down and was about to walk away when she heard a young man say "Here, 100 rupees." She looked up into the familiar eyes of Terry. "Here you go miss. Your royal bracelet." he smiled and bowed at Malon. She blushed and took the bracelet eyeing it as if for the first time. "Thanks Terry. But I can't accept this. It cost too much and I don't think-" Terry stood up straight and shoved the bracelet back in her hands.
"Nonsense. I get paid far too much money that I don't know what to do with it.Besides I don't have a fair lady of my own to spend it on. So I thought, why not. Take it as a gift from a knight in shining armor to a fair maiden." He winked at her and she looked at the bracelet once more. "Fine, I'll take it but only if you let me buy lunch. Deal?" Terry smiled and sighed out loud in defeat. "Deal. I was getting hungry anyway." Malon laughed at his comment and they dissapeared into the crowd.
Moments later trumpets had sounded off into the Hyrulian sky. A crowd had formed around a mobile stage that looked so grand in all it's fancy and royal decorations. A man stood infront of the people holding out his hands to try and quiet the people in order for him to make his announcement. Terry had managed for them to get front row in all the mess and Malon was very happy smiling up at the man waiting for his announcement and to see Link.
"My fair people of Hyrule. Today is the day that we announce the engagement of our beloved Princess Zelda. Soon she will no longer be your princess but your Queen. Hyrulians! A new dawn approaches as yet another glorious decade passes us by as a new and mighty ruler takes over for our beloved King Julius. My people! I beg of you to welcome our royal family King Julius himself and Princess Zelda!." The crowd cheered inmensly and the King approached the front of the stage.
"My beloved people. Today my daughter will be engaged to a wonderful young man. He is loyal, trustworthy, a kind and fair ruler to his own lands, and with very promising qualities to rule our kingdom! He is a prince from our neighboring lands, the lands that have aided us in so many battles against our old enemies. Ladies and gentlemen I beg you welcome, King Christopher and Prince Link! From the lands of Osirian!" The crowd yet again cheered as the two made their way to the stage. They both held their hands high waving at the crowd with smiles to charm the world.
~*~There you stood with a smile on your face~*~
"My beloved people," King Julius said again," this is Prince Link. He is to be your future King and my daughter's future husband!" The crowd roared loudly but one single person.
~*~Engaging the woman of your dreams that wasn't me~*~
"Greetings!" Prince Link said. " You all have no idea how pleased I am to be standing here with my father and my future father in law! It honors me to be standing infront of such a fine crowd filled with such fine and loyal people! I am pleased to announce to you all ,what you have already been told, but from my own mouth." He turned to Zelda who had a graceful smile on her lips.
~*~You devoted a love to me that sounded true to my heart but a lie in my mind~*~
He took her hand and placed a shiny ring on her delicate finger. "Zelda, for too long have I seen you stride your halls without a loving companion by your side. "
~*~I was fooled by your words, your good looks, and your knightly charm~*~
"Too long have I wanted to be that loving companion by your side. Holding your hand and keeping you close to me to never let go."
~*~ And now I lie in the dark, my own tears pouring down on me from the sky~*~
"I love you Zelda! I love you and I want you to marry me. Will you?" He knelt infront of her and held pleading eyes.
~*~My own happiness turned into pain by a change of plans~*~
Zelda blushed and nodded with tears of joy in her precious blue eyes. Link stood up and looked her in the eyes.
~*~My heart slowly moving to the empty rythm of death by words~*~
She looked at him and saw deep in his eyes.'Your hurting....and your lying.....why? What is hurting you?' "Yes Link, I will marry you."
~*~An act of lies~*~
She said out loud, slowy with a little doubt in her soft voice and bowed her head. Link neared her and tilted her chin up. He smiled with tears in his eyes.
~*~To hear my cries~*~
The smile failing to touch her heart. The tears telling Zelda of the sad tale he was now living.
~*~To watch my heart as it slowly dies~*~
He closed the space between them with a short kiss and then he turned them both to the crowd and bowed to the people.
~*~To see the pain within my eyes~*~
During his bow he opened his eyes to meet angry and pained dark blue eyes. Eyes with heavy tears spilling down silky cheeks.
~*~Now look at me I pay the price~*~
He trailed the face to the strangely smiling lips and read the words that were mouthed in his direction. 'I hope your happy, with her love and my hate'
~*~Of believing in your deceitful lies~*~
In seconds the sad maiden had turned from the crowd and left running, her wild red hair trailing behind and the rain falling heavier from the skies. Reminding Link of her tears. The crowd dispursed as soon as the rains began to fall and the last thing Link saw was the wink and grin of Terry who shortly after ran towards Malon.
Link stood there in the rain, in the same place he had when he saw Malon and her sad eyes. Eyes that pierced his heart deeper than any sword would ever go. He bearly felt Zelda's light tugs to get him out of the rain, he pushed away the soldiers that tried and just stood there. Muttering that he wanted to be left alone for now. They did as he requested and as soon as everyone was gone he fell into his knees. He fell just as his heart fell to it's eternal death. "I love you Malon" The whispers of his broken heart being drowned out by the rain. The salty water carrying out his own tears to the depths of the earth were they would remain unseen, and unheard by the one he truly loved.
-IN THE FIELD OF THE RANCH-
Malon lay in the field of the ranch her limp body currently lifeless. Her tears streaming just like rain from her eyes. Pain in her heart and mind, betrayel, and the need to dissapear and be taken away by darkness. "Won't you take me away from me, dear darkness....take me away from me. Loose me within your depths that I long for." Her sobs long gone, the pain from her heart sucking out all the energy she had to cry hard. Leaving only the tears to spill but no emotion expressed with body language. 'The only way to relieve myself' Malon thought 'is to sing.'
Weakly she began........
I hold me breath as this life starts to take its toll
I hide behind a smile as this perfect plan unfolds
But. oh godesses, I feel I've been lied to
Lost all faith in the things I believed in
And I
I've woken now to find myself
In the shadows of all you have created
I'm longing to be lost in you
Won't you take me away from me
Crawling through this world as desease flows through my veins
I look into myself, but my own heart has been betrayed
I can't go on like this
I loathe all I've become
I've woken now to find myself
In the shadows of all you have created
I'm longing to be lost in you
Won't you take me away from me
Lost in my dying world I reach for something more
I have grown so weary of this lie I believed
I've woken now to find myself
In the shadows of all I have created
Im longing to be lost in you
Wont you take me away from me.......
Won't you take me away from me my precious darkness...........

"Hmmm......UNCLE!!!! It's going to rain today!" Malon yelled from the field to her uncle walking towards her from the house. "I know dear. Ok Malon I've got bad news and some good news.

"I love you Malon" The whispers of his broken heart being drowned out by the rain. The salty water carrying out his own tears to the depths of the earth were they would remain unseen, and unheard by the one he truly loved.
-IN THE FIELD OF THE RANCH-
Malon lay in the field of the ranch her limp body currently lifeless. Her tears streaming just like rain from her eyes. Pain in her heart and mind, betrayel, and the need to dissapear and be taken away by darkness. "Won't you take me away from me, dear darkness....take me away from me. Loose me within your depths that I long for." Her sobs long gone, the pain from her heart sucking out all the energy she had to cry hard. Leaving only the tears to spill but no emotion expressed with body language. 'The only way to relieve myself' Malon thought 'is to sing.'
Weakly she began........
I hold me breath as this life starts to take its toll
I hide behind a smile as this perfect plan unfolds
But. oh godesses, I feel I've been lied to
Lost all faith in the things I believed in
And I
I've woken now to find myself
In the shadows of all you have created
I'm longing to be lost in you
Won't you take me away from me
Crawling through this world as desease flows through my veins
I look into myself, but my own heart has been betrayed
I can't go on like this
I loathe all I've become
I've woken now to find myself
In the shadows of all you have created
I'm longing to be lost in you
Won't you take me away from me
Lost in my dying world I reach for something more
I have grown so weary of this lie I believed
I've woken now to find myself
In the shadows of all I have created
Im longing to be lost in you
Wont you take me away from me.......
Won't you take me away from me my precious darkness...........
