Princess of Destiny
Leon's baaaaaaaack!
I don't own Zelda(seriously, doesn't anybody know about the prologue release?) and enjoy!!!
Servants ran from room to room, frantic. It's been twelve hours since anybody had last seen the king. Nobody knows if he is still of this world or not. Rumors were well contained, but sooner or later, she would find out…
"What?!" exclaimed the shocked princess. "Why wasn;'t I told earlier?!"
The young boy that had told Prioncess Zelda of the events quickly regretted his decision. She was a kind person, but also forceful should the situation call for it.
"Your highness, please understand. We didn't want you to worry"
"Who did you say is responsible?!"
"I'm-m not sure but…they say it was G-Ga-gan-"
"Out with it already!!!" the poor lad was on her last nerve. He was now cursing his luck for having to b e the one to tell her about her father's disappearance.
"It was Ganon!"
"W-what?" her rage was quickly replaced with worry and sadness. If it was Ganon as the boy said, her father had no hope of being alive. "It can't be…"
"We don't know for sure, but that's what everyone is sayi…Princess?"
Zelda was on her knees, her face drenched in tears. "No, my father…Why?" Her voice cracked.
"Princess, please don't cry…"
"It can't be…My father's gone…" Almost as if the boy didn't exist, she kept crying.
"Oh, man what am I supposed to do?"
"Leave that to me." The voice corresponded to Impa of the Sheikah. Once Zelda's babysitter, Impa was now one of her most trusted advisors. The former Shadow Sage approached Zelda. "Princess, your father will be all right. We will find him, but we need you to be strong for the country. Right now, everyone is in despair and they need a strong leader to help them. They need you, princess."
Impa's comforting voice was able to calm the princess. "Thanks Impa. I will try my hardest to help my people."
"Atta girl. Now let's wipe those tears of your face and get you ready for the town meeting, a'ight?"
"Huff…Ok."
As they left, Impa explained to Zelda everything that had happened. How Kakariko was in ruins, how Ganon had escaped and that everybody was searching for him, but without Link, they could do nothing.
"then we should send for him, right?"
"that would be best, princess. Shall I go?"
"no, I need you here, with me. Send some of the soldiers."
"Understood. I'll send five or six soldiers. We can't really spare any more than that."
"Ok."
Impa was off, in search of five soldiers who could do the job right.
It took her six hours to find the appropriate men. She found a skilled halberdier, named Leon, a medic, Aerith, an officer famous for his dual sword skills, named Raiku and his two underlings, Joe and Rick, who were known in the town for being the best tag team there's ever been. They didn't need to say what they were planning to know what the other was thinking. These five were chosen by Impa and the next day she presented them before Princess Zelda.
"Hmmm…" The princess pondered as she contemplated each of them. Then Impa went on to present them.
"This is Leon. He is a master of the heavy weapons and one of the King's Guard, the elite of the elite."
The man, about 21 years old, bowed before the princess. His physique showed how capable he was of wielding heavy swords, showing most of his body was muscle. He had a well-toned body, which had some scars from previous battles, mostly in his chest and arms, and spiky black hair. He was wearing dark green leather armor, which he claimed was made from dragon skin, a pair of boots of the same material, and a huge sword. The sword was at least twice the width of a normal sword and was about a feet longer than your average blade.
"A pleasure to meet you, Princes. I am honored that I was chosen for this task."
Impa continued. "Next we have Aerith. She is an excellent healer and one of our best medics. She will be of great help to them if something happens."
The young woman, about 20 years old, bowed. She was an attractive young woman, wearing a simple yet elegant dress. Her long, silky brown hair added to her natural beauty. She was also carrying a small suitcase that was filled with medicine and doctoral procedures.
"Nice to meet you, Princess."
"Then we have Raiku."
The young man with the spiky blonde hair stepped forth. He was a thin guy, about 19, and he carried with him two katanas. One was carved with waves, symbolizing water, and the other, with flames, symbolizing fire. As he explained, that was done in his tribe, the Gerudo, to symbolize power, the flames, and wisdom, the waves. He was supposed to succeed Ganon as leader but he lacked these qualities and was told to first attain them and return to their tribe. Anyone coulda guessed he was from the Gerudo by simply looking at them. He wore tunics like those of Ganon, and a cape bordered with ancient runes. The runes were unreadable, but he said it explained his story, like he had just mentioned.
"Pleasure to meet you."
"Finally we have the Twins Joe and Rick"
The last two men, both 17, exactly alike, came forward. Both had black hairs with yellow bangs, Traditional soldier equipment, wich were the chain mail, leg plates made of steel, but they lacked helmets. In fact, everyone there didn't have a helmet. Also, they carried an uchigatana, much like regular katanas, just slightly longer and more curved. They both spoke at unison.
"Pleasure to meet such a beautiful princess"
"Ahem. That's all of the Soldiers I found. What do you think, princess?"
"Yes. They will do the job nicely. Listen up, you five will go to the Kokiri forest and search for a young man named Link. He's probably using a green tunic. Once you find him, tell him Ganon's back and we need his help. You are free to choose any item from the blacksmith if it should aid you in this mission."
All five responded immediately. "Ok." Each took off and picked up a weapon from the slots. Leon took a tomahawk axe, Raiku picked up some ointments, Aerith chose some chainmail armor for herself, and the twins asked that they wanted some Din blazers instead of weapons, to which the princess reluctantly accepted. They each left with a barrel full of beer.
"You leave at Dawn. Let the Goddesses Guide your Passage."
"Farewell princess. We shall return as soon as possible."
Well theyre off. Let's see what comes next, ey? Cya!!
