She
She was undeniably attracted to him
She, the Ruler of an entire realm, the princess
Infatuated with the farm boy, the goat herder
Ridiculous, isn't it?
She couldn't believe he was the Chosen Hero
With his pretty-boy looks and casual attitude
Of course he didn't choose the hero life
She
She rescued him from prison
And made him her slave
She'd help him find his friends
Just as long as he found her Shadows
She was impressed by his skill
With his sword, arrows, and aim.
He had some talent, to be sure.
She
She one day found that they had grown to be friends
With his likable personality
He now laughed at her jokes
They often made fun of each other
In the way that friends do
She was completely unprepared
For what awaited up ahead
She
She had refused to join the Usurper King
And now she lay, pale and faint
On her once-slave's back
She uttered his name for the first time
And clung to his soaked fur
"I must hold on just a little bit longer." She told herself
"For him."
She
She lay on the cold stone floor
Her vision slowly blurring
She told the Princess of Destiny
About what had to be done
For Hyrule, for both realms.
She prepared to say goodbye
She asked one last favor
She
She looked up at the princess
Who held her small hand
And suddenly filled her with life
She couldn't do this!
It wasn't right!
But what had been done was done
She vowed to be worthy of that gift.
She
She grasped his shoulder, and the gold eyes met the blue
As she asked him to help her
Again
She felt so selfish
But the evil needed to be put to an end
He smiled and nodded
She smiled back.
She
She sat at the mirror's platform
Feeling as if all hopes had been lost
They were too late. It was broken.
They were told by the sages
Of a way to turn this around
She looked at him; he looked at her
They knew what they must do
She
She felt her heart pounding.
He gently reassured her.
They had been everywhere together
The mountains, the grove, the sky
"We'll do this together," He had said.
They faced the Usurper King, and
Together, they triumphed.
She
She looked at her imp-like form
Shocked at what she saw
The curse remained
Anger boiled in her blood
Using power she had not known she possessed
She put an end the Usurper
But it wasn't over yet.
She
She awoke in his arms
And looked up into his eyes
Which rivaled the stars of the night
It felt so perfect
So natural
They both looked up
As a light rain fell down on them
She
She put a hand on his shoulder
A silent token of appreciation
For the Hero had slain the beast
As the Princess of Hyrule was restored
She suddenly felt ashamed.
They realized the King of Evil still lurked
She knew what she must do
She
She held back the tears
And bid farewell to her friend
She warped him and the princess
Out of the way of harm
She gave him a sad smile
For she knew it might be last one
She would give
She
She let the forbidden power overcome her
To face the great evil
She would never give up
But it was too much
She blacked out
She heard the building crumble
She fell with the debris
She
She felt a warm light surround her
And opened up her eyes and stood tall
Finally returned to her true form
She smiled, and looked at her hero
But she knew this happiness she felt
Couldn't, wouldn't last
She pushed away the hurt
She
She let a tear slip down her face
She didn't try to hold it back
Gently, she took a hold of it
And watched it float towards the mirror
The portal opened, the steps appeared.
She looked back at her hero
One last time
She
She looked into his eyes
They were filled sadness
Silently pleading to her not to do this
Maybe he felt the same way as she did
But she'll never know
It could never be
They both know.
She
She looks around at her realm
It matches how she feels. Destroyed.
She falls to her knees in grief
And now when she sees gems of blue color
And hears a wolf howl in the night
She remembers him.
Link.
He.
