Zelda smiled at Senko who looked at each of the royal horses. Each one of them snorted at her or banged their hooves on the ground for her just kepted on walking down the stalls until she reached a locked stall.
"Why is this stall locked?" Casting her big green eyes at Zelda.
"There is a wild horse in there. She had injured afew of my knights when they tried to tame her."
Senko looked back at the lock. Bitting her inner cheek she didn't know if she wanted to see the wild horse or go and take another look at the horse's again.
'Go in the stall. This horse was made for you and you alone.' Din softly spoke to Senko's heart.
"May I please have the key for the lock."
Zelda must have heard the voice cause she handed her the key.
"Thank you."Unlocking the lock it fell to the ground and Senko pushed the stall door open. Inside there was a cream coloured horse with long white hair and pure silver eyes. It glared at her at first but as she bowed to it, it trooted over to her. It smelt her hair and after five minutes it bowed back. Senko looked up at the horse to find it staring at her.
"I will name you Athena. Named after a greek godess of heroics." Senko smiled as the horse Athena snorted with approval and started to rub her snot against Senko's cheek.
"Come on Anthena we have to prepare for our journey." Patting Athena's side the horse followed her new misstress out of the stall.
The guards and Princess Zelda gasped as the horse walked out of the stall with an uninjured Senko at it's side.
'Is there anything you can't do Senko.' Princess Zelda smiled as Senko gently rubbed the horses snot.
"Her name is Athena." Still smiling Senko pulled a carrot out of the bucket and feed Athena. The horse ate the carrot. As the Princess and the guards tried to approch Senko Athena quickly bent her head down, got a mouth full of the misstress's shirt and swang the surprised girl on her back before running out of the barn.
"SENKO!" Princess Zelda watched the horse speed off out of the castel gates and headed for Lake Hylia. Senko wanted to scream but she ended up laughing as the wind blew her hair back. She has always loved the wind and on bebo and facebook she used to do 'whats you'r element?' and she got wind. As they reached the lake Athena stopped and gester Senko that she needed a drink. Slipping off the horse Senko walked to the edge of the lake's side she took a seat and watched the lake's water.
"SENKO!"
Looking over her shoulder she saw a worried Link hopping off Epona. He rushed to her side and started to cheek for any injuries.
"Are you ok!? Zelda said that you'r new horse took off with you as she and the guards tried to approch you!"He yelled at her face and she was like 0.0'
"I'm fine Link. Athena went into overprotective mode when they tried to approch us." She spoke calmly as Link took a deep breath then breathed out calmly.
"It's understandable. 'Athena's' mother was a wild horse and her father was a nobal battel horse. So she must get the overprotective master thing from both of them."
Senko smiled as Athena nudge her arm for some attension. Strocking Athena's snot the horse snorted with pleasure as her misstress was very kind.
Link watched amazed as Senko had tammed one of Hyrule's most dangerous horse's. He couldn't even get on Athena's back with out her running in circles and wacked him against the stables walls. But Senko had wrapped this crazy thing around her little finger like it was nothing.
"I think we should head for the forest's entrance and go to the camp. Zelda's worried about you." Link walked to Epona and hopped on her back. Senko nod as Athena went on the ground and allowed Senko on her back. Climbing on her back Senko patted her back twice and both of the horses speeded off to the forest with their master's.

"Senko!" Zelda ran to the black haired girl and pulled her into a bear hug.
"It's nice to see you too Princess." Senko smiled as Zelda pulled her to the campsite. Giving the girl a plate of bread and some cheese she sat down near the camp fire. Senko sat down next to her and nibbled on the cheese and broke the bread in half and gave the bigger piece of Athena.
"Umm who are we looking for?"
"We are looking for two picori. Ezlo the picori sage and his apprentice Vaati the former wind mage." Link answered the question as he setted up his sleeping spot. Princess Zelda signed softly.
"Link the gate has opened a week ago."
"I know I know. Now goodnight ladies." The Link rolled on his side and went to sleep.
Senko got herr blanket and went to sleep next to Zelda.
