Disclaimer: I don't own Legend of Zelda
With the castle far behind them, Zelda, Link, and Shadow made their way to Aboda Village, where Niko lived. Niko was bound to help them. He was their last source. Zelda's eyes where feeling heavy. She glanced over at Link and Shadow, noticing that they too where ready to fall asleep. Zelda sighed.
"Let's take a break, please?" asked Zelda.
"Fine. I couldn't agree more." said Link.
Shadow nodded. Zelda walked away from the tracks and toward the woods. For now, they could sleep in the woods until morning. On their long walk toward Aboda, Zelda's dress had gotten caught on everything on their walk. There where tears and rips in it now. Zelda sighed. My only dress is now ruined! WHat am I going to wear! Zelda sighed again, this wasn't her day at all! Zelda laid down on the soft grass. She missed her bed and her kingdom. She hopped Niko would understand.
Queen Tetra stood in front of the Chief. Still going through his stuff. The Hero of Winds still had his sword pointed at the Chief.
"What I don't get is why are you still alive?" asked the Chief.
The Queen turned toward the Chief. She glared hard at him.
"I'm still alive because once one of my descendants defeated Malladus, the spirits knew that they may need us. So we came back, only to find out that you are the reason my descendent is in trouble!" she said.
The Chief turned toward the Hero.
"And why is he with you?" he asked carefully.
"You already know, he's my husband, duh." said Queen Tetra turning her back on the Chief.
The Chief drew his sword and clashed it at the Hero's sword. The Queen whirled around facing the Chief.
"Well, Hero, it's time to leave. In the end, Chief, you will lose." said Queen Tetra.
She raced over to the Hero grabbing his wrist. Then, the two disappeared.
Zelda woke up to Link who was trying to wake her up. Zelda's eyes where still heavy. Link sighed, then picked up Zelda in his arms. Shadow was holding a Deku stick that he sharpened for their defense against anything. Zelda looked around as they where walking. Link was still carrying her. After about an hour, Aboda village finally came into view. Link put Zelda back onto her feet.
"Finally! Aboda village!" said Zelda excitedly.
"Wow, what happened to your dress?" asked Shadow.
"It got torn by the sticks and things on our walk over." said Zelda.
"Oh."
Zelda, Link, and Shadow walked the rest of the way to Aboda. When they finally arrived, there where no trains in sight, and it looked completely empty. Zelda walked over toward Niko's house. Zelda knocked on the door.
"Hello?" asked Zelda.
Suddenly, the door creaked open, and they saw Niko.
"Ah! Princess Zelda! What a pleasure to see you! Come in!" said Niko happily.
Zelda, Link, and Shadow walked into the house, Shadow still had his stick with him.
"What happened in Aboda, Niko?" asked Zelda.
"The castle guards cam into town, took everyone with them." said Niko.
"WHAT?!" they said together.
"That's right. They said the Chief had an encounter with someone and now, to keep everyone safe from the person, and you, they took everyone to Castle Town." said Niko.
Zelda looked away. None of this would have happened if she had just not listened to the Chief in the first place.
"Then how did you get out?" asked Shadow.
"Well, all you have to do is hide somewhere."
"Alright. Thank you Niko." said Zelda.
Niko glanced at Zelda, noticing her torn dress. Niko sighed, then walked to a cupboard, pulling out some clothes.
"Zelda, try these on. Your ancestor left them for you. She knew something like this was going to happen. She just didn't know when." said Niko.
Zelda accepted the clothes, then walked to into the back room. As she was unfolding the clothes, a small dagger fell out.
"Niko! Why is there a dagger in here!" said Zelda.
"Just try on the clothes, the dagger goes with them." said Niko.
Zelda sighed putting the clothes on. When she was finished she stepped out, for Link and Shadow to see. Link's eyes widened. She didn't look like a princess anymore. Shadow laughed a bit while Niko smiled. To him, it brought back memories. She wore...
