Gahh! Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I've been busy with friends, and every time I come home, I'm dead tired. Here's a small update and I'll try to upload more chapters as soon as possible! Sorry it's so short, suffering really bad from writers-block. x_X I know this chapter will seem rushed but I'll do better in the future chapters. Well anyway... Here's the new chapter. Enjoy.
Chapter 2.I don't know.
Blue eyes fluttered open, adjusting to the lighting of the room before searching around, hoping what had happened was just another nightmare. But the instant everything adjusted, a horrid type of pain shot through Link's body, causing her to gasp before shutting herself up. Reliazation struck as she noticed she wasn't the only breathing being in the room. Her heart started beating rapidly, and the first thought to come to mind was 'escape'.
The dark king lay still, peacefully asleep. He still had that smirk scrawled on his desert tanned face. "Sick bastard…" Link whispered, feeling disgusted. What had happened the night before wasn't things she could just push deep down inside her thoughts and act as if never happened. It was like some kind of scar, which couldn't be seen, but would remain permanently. Once this man was long gone and dead, keep it all a secret until the end of time… If this man was gone, no one else would have to hear it from his mouth.
Her eyes caught site of something hanging on the wall.
A handle which looked as if though belonged to a blade, hung behind a thick red curtain. Carefully sliding out of the bed, and quietly making her way to the curtain, she found that it wasn't just one, but two beautiful sabres. Gerudo writing was carved into the blade itself, and jewels covered parts of the handle. Link gently took the blade out of it's place on the wall, and gripped onto it tightly. It was a lot heavier than what she was used to. It was roughly the same weight as the biggoron sword, but the size was different.
Link felt the side of the blade, the coolness of the weapon felt good against her skin. She carefully walked back but this time, to Ganondorf's side. 'I'm a coward for not doing this in battle…But as long as no one else knows…. It doesn't matter.' Link bit her lower lip, but not hard enough to draw blood. Link raised the blade up, at the angle of where it would land on Ganondorf's neck. Ganondorf's eyes flashed open just as the blade was about to make contact with his skin, Link abruptly stopped. Within an instance, Link was thrown to the other side of the room. The heavy blades clattered onto the floor. "You little bitch!" Ganondorf bellowed. His voice shook the room. "You…. Attack me in my sleep. Ha… I always thought the 'Hero' of time would never do something as cheap as that and would instead, kill me on the battle field." He smirked. Golden eyes burrowing into blue ones. "You dirtied me.." She whispered, looking away, holding back tears. Her only reply was a deep chuckle and Ganondorf simply walked out of the room, slamming the door shut behind him. "You're too afraid to even say anything to me! You take everything from me. You take away hyrule, and hyrules great future! How dare you!" Link screamed at the top of her lungs, the tears had already broke out. Now she sat there, legs pressed against her bare chest, sobbing.
She had no idea how long it had been until the door slowly creaked open, only to see a red haired woman, surprisingly not Gerudian. Link only looked up at her, unmoving. "I wont hurt you." She replied, through her eyes, one could only see kindness and somewhat misery. "What do you want?" Link demanded, getting woman handed Link some Gerudo clothing, and smiled. "I'm only here to help you." The woman replied before taking Link's swollen wrist and rubbing some kind of slimey liquid from a potion bottle around it. The liquid was of a deep purplish color, and had several tiny pieces of torn leaves. "Your wrist will heal up after a short while." Link nodded as the woman began to wrap her wrist in a grayish cloth. "Did Ganondorf send you?" The younger woman chuckled. "He'd have my head if he knew I was here." "Then why are you here?" Silence filled the room as the stranger continued tending to Links wrist. When that was done, she got up, and opened the door halfway. "Who are you?" Link demanded, getting up. "You can find me in the temple. That's all I can let you know." The woman left, leaving a confused Link behind.
The clothes the woman had given her was rather loose. The sleeves were too long and the shirt stopped right at her knees. The opening for the neck was rather large, and this must have been one of the male clothings here, considering the Gerudo Women only wore the more 'revealing' types of clothing. Link felt a bit secure now that she had something to cover her, as she had no idea where her clothes were. All that was left to do was find the mastersword and see to it that Ganondorf no longer reigned over Hyrule.
"This place isn't Ganondorf's chamber…." Link drifted. "My sword and armor would either be in his room or his throne room."
First she'd head to his room, but if the sword wasn't there, she'd head to the throne room, and look there.
Exiting out of the room, Link carefully searched around the castle, still not sure where it was located. Large glass windows surrounded the side of the long hallway, only showing a large courtyard, most likely to be the training grounds, as armor was scattered about. "Stalfos.." Link mummered, continuing her search. Guards stood infront of each door in the hallway, none of them seeming to mind of care for Link's wandering. Of course they wouldn't. She was unarmed And defensless. But something caught her eye from the window. She moved closer to the glass, as a large figure was seen fighting off several Stalfos, non-stop. Hmmf. So this was the type of training he got? Several Stalfos, Gerudian soldiers, and other type of beasts charging at him and he has to fight them off. None of her business. Link continued to walk away, in search for her sword.
"Where do you think you're going?" one of the guards questioned. "The throne room." Link replied, without looking back. "You're not allowed there. Lord Ganondorf only gave us orders to let you wander about in these areas, but are strictly not allowed near the throne room, his chambers, the dungeons, and the weaponry. "Of course." Link scoffed. She had to admit, Ganondorf wasn't stupid enough to let her slip right through everything. "I'll just head to the courtyard then." The guards said nothing but only pointed to a door that led Link to a flight of stairs. It was a pretty long way down, and it took her several Minutes to reach the area where Ganondorf had been training, in the harsh desert climate. Ganondorf stayed in Gerudo Valley… And not in Hyrule." Link thought. Why? Ganondorf had said he'd won the battle, taken over hyrule, but why stay in the Valley? Barefoot across the sand, Link picked up one of the swords that had belonged to the stalfos. The material used for the blade was quite strong, but against the master sword, the blade was nothing. And without thinking, Link charged through the training grounds, straight towards the evil Gerudo king and from behind, slashed at his armor. When Ganondorf turned around, thinking Link as one of the stalfos, Link quickly jumped back, avoiding the man's sword. "Without armour, and shoes, you still want to fight? Even with that broken wrist?" Ganondorf laughed, the bandage still wasn't noticed for it was hidden by the sleeve. "I'll kill you here and now!" Link screamed, charging at Ganondorf. Both of them, blade against blade, forcing, pushing the other to give in. The stalfos had backed off, and somehow vanished. Now, the only two on the field was the evil king Ganondorf and Link.
"How can you kill me? When you could even bare to bring that blade through my neck back then?" Ganondorf shouted back. That sentence caused Link to jump back, and with all that force Ganondorf had put into his blade, he struck the sand covered ground. "You could have just killed me then! Why didn't you!" Ganondorf shouted. "I don't know!" Link screamed back at him, charging straight for him. Blades clashed, repeatedly, screaming with that loud clash of steel against steel. "Well?" Ganondorf asked, panting, eyes still locked onto Links. "I told you!" Link repeated, again, charging at Ganondorf, but somehow, Ganondorf managed to grab her by the neck, and slam her down to the ground. "I ..Don't.. Know" Link coughed, trying to take in more air. "That's not a good enough reason." Ganondorf smirked, gripping Link's neck tighter. Soon, Link had passed out from the lack of oxygen and several Gerudo guards were called to take Link to the healers.
Ganondorf sighed, wiping the sweat off of his forehead. "Stupid child." He sheathed the sword back in it's sheath and slowly walked back to the castle. "Prepare the bath." He ordered, without even looking at one of the women. "Yes, Lord Ganondorf." And the woman hurried away. "I shouldn't even have to ask…. I'll deal with her later." He sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose.
In the bath, Ganondorf sat halfway into the water. It was something like a pool. The room was dense with steam, and water was everywhere. "Bring Link!" Ganondorf ordered, and heard two feet scurrying away.
"Lord Ganondorf requested that I bring the girl to his bath." The woman explained, her eyes drifting to an unconcious Link. "I'm afraid she's not awake yet." It was the same Woman who had healed Link's broken wrist. "I'll just carry her then." "I don't think that's a good idea." The woman fired back. "His lordship will have your head if you do not obey orders." The woman nodded, letting the guard pick Link up, bridal style, and carry her roughly, running back to the bath rooms. She carefully made it to where Ganondorf was at, avoiding the water and slipping. "Drop her in slowly." Ganondorf mummered, still no eye contact. "But remove her clothing first." The guard could feel a little smirk playing on his lips when he said that. But she didn't complain and set Link on the ground, removing the long shirt in the process. She then carefully placed Link into the water, keeping her in a sitting position. "I do-" "Your opinion is not necessary." Ganondorf interrupted. With that he sent the guard away and his gaze was slowly directed to Link. He gently traced her lips and eyes with his thumb. "Beautiful…." He whispered. His hand then wandered to her hair. He gently combed through the angelic golden locks with his hand. Link still lay there unconcious, and un-aware of what was about to happen to her.
