Hyrule's Fate
Chapter 3
I could not believe it. The Ocarina of Time was right in front of me. I jump down into the moat and grab it. There it was, in my hands. Tears filled my eyes. It was a dream come true. Jordyn reaches her hand towards me. I grab her hand and she pulls me up.
"So whats that?" she asked me.
I rolled my eyes. "Did you not just hear what I said? It's the Ocarina of Time".
"Ohhh? Well what does it do?" she questioned me.
"Well for one it opens the Door of Time. It also holds a great value for the quest line, which leads me to wonder. Is Link alive?" I say to myself. To be sure he wouldn't just leave it here.
"Let's walk to Kakariko Village since its right here to get a good night's rest" I say to Jordyn.
"Where is that at?" she asked me.
I pointed to our left. "Its right up those steps. Also while we are there, we can ask around if anyone knows where Link is".
We make our way to Kakariko Village. We walk over the bridge and head towards the steps. As I place my foot on the first step, I turn around. Was that a horse I heard? I wondered. My heart lit up like a Christmas tree. Link. I turn around. My face turned white as a ghost. Sure enough it was a horse, but it wasn't Link.
"No" the words slid out of my mouth.
"What?" Jordyn said.
"Ganondorf" I said in a very low tone.
He was looking at us. Dead at us. All I could do was stare back. Why was I getting nervous? I knew his weakness. I guess it was just the gaze he pierced through me with. I tap Jordyn on the arm. We quickly make our way to Kakariko. I knew he watched us the whole time.
Once we get inside the Village, I breathe a sigh of relief. It was just like the game. The windmill was straight ahead. The tall watch tower to the left. We walk up slowly. My eyes were fixated on everything.
"We need to go up there" I said pointing to a hosue.
"Why that house?" she asked me.
"Just trust me" I say with a grin. Something lit up in me. I just knew the Hero was alive. We walk up to the house. I knock on the door. A woman answers.
"Hello, my name is Beth, and this is my friend Jordyn. I was wondering if we could come in. I have a few questions I would like to ask" I say to this woman.
I know she is wondering what I am doing here because she is looking at me like I am crazy. She steps aside and we walk in.
"So, I was wondering if you knew that the Hero of Time was alive" I say. The womans eyes got huge.
"Who are you?" she demanded.
"If I told you, you wouldn't believe us. And to save your breath I will answer the next question you were about to ask. I came here personally this house, because this house used to be one of the Sheikah's house. Impa" I state to her.
"Yes, but I don't see how this belongs to me?" she asked with confusion.
I sigh in aggravation. "What is it with dumb people? I just asked, do you know if the Hero of Time is alive. I just need a yes or no" I say as if I am explaining something to a child.
She closes her eyes and looks down at the floor. She opens her mouth and replies "No".
My heart dropped. My body filled with sorrow. "How? I mean why?" I say trying not to cry. Jordyn came up to me and placed her hand on my shoulder.
The woman replies "It is said, that when Ganondorf took over the Castle, Impa rescued Zelda out of his way. They left on a white horse with Ganondorf in pursuit. Although they got away, Ganondorf stopped by Link. Link drew his sword and Ganondorf slaughtered him right there where he stood. He didn't even give him a chance" she said with tears rolling down her face. "He was just a boy" she wept.
"What about the Ocarina?" I ask.
"No one knows. They say Zelda threw it at Link when they escaped, but no one has retrieved it of found its where abouts" she says drying her eyes.
"Well I just want to say thank you for letting us know" I say to her.
"No problem. Where do you girls stay at?" she asked us.
I look at Jordyn. "Well actually, nowhere at the moment"
"Why don't you girls stay here for the night? I will cook something for you to eat" she said. Jordyn and I placed our hands on our stomachs. We were starving.
"Thank you" I said to her. I knew we would get a good night sleep tonight. Jordyn and I filled our bellies up and slept on the bed upstairs. I couldn't believe that there was actually a cow in the house.
Jordyn and I woke up refreshed and energized. The woman was downstairs sitting at the table. We get up and head downstairs.
"I, well we would like to thank you for letting us sleep here for the night. But we must go, we have somewhere we need to be" I tell her in a polite manner.
"Thank you, and I appreciated the company. It gets lonesome sometimes, but I do have something for you" she says getting up from the table. She walks over to the corner of the room. She grabs a box and brings it to the table.
"This was my sons. I would like to you have it. Its dangerous out there" she says to me.
I look back at Jordyn and she gives me a look. I walk over to the box and open it. It was a sword.
"You don't have to give me this" I say.
"No, I want you to have it. He fought a great many of people with that sword when Ganondorf took over. I would like for you to have it".
I kindly say 'thank you' and we walk out the door.
"What she can't give me a weapon?" Jordyn says to herself with jealousy.
"Well one, you do not know how to use a weapon. Two, you do not know every crook and cranny in Hyrule" I say to her.
I hear her sigh. We exit Kakariko.
"So where are we headed?" she asked me.
"Kokiri. It's a place where children never grow up. It's a forest. They were once protected but the Great Deku Tree, but Ganondorf destroyed him whenever he would not give him one of the spiritual stones" I explain.
Jordyn didn't reply. We make our way to Hyrule field again. As we walk to the forest, I keep looking back to see if He was watching me. After a while, we reach the forest entrance.
"What is this?" Jordyn asks. "It's like a made of wood?" she says knocking on the entrance way.
"Well maybe because it is"
We step inside, sword in hand. We walk over the bridge.
"Wait" I say to her. "Before we step into Kokiri, there are these monsters. They are called Deku babas, and Deku scrubs. Deku babas are basically like a venus fly trap, but they actually will hurt you. Deku scrubs are like the Octorok from the water. But they spit Deku seeds at you. But when we get in there run and follow me" I explain.
She nods in approval. "Okay, ready one, two, GO!" I yell.
We run into Kokiri. The Deku baba to our right rises up. We run right past it. I head towards Links house. I scream as the other Deku baba rises up. I forgot that it was there. I swing my sword. I hit it in the head. I lunges at me again. I swing my sword and slice its head off. I look back at Jordyn and her face was pale. I climb the ladder to Links house. We walk in. Everything was so little.
"Okay, since the Great Deku Tree is dead, the Deku Sprout is alive. We have to go talk to it" I tell Jordyn.
"Wait? We have to go back out there?" she asks me.
"Ugh yea?" I say.
"Well you can go, but I will stay here" she demands.
"Fine, it's not like you were any help at all anyway" I say walking out the door. I jump down and head to the right. I jump over the little pieces of land, trying not to fall in the water. After I finally made it across, I make my way to the Deku Tree. As I gaze upon its beauty, I slowly walk up to it. It was so sad to know that something so wonderful was now just a symbolic being. I walk up to the Deku sprout.
As I open my mouth to speak, I hear something. Something jingly. Then it appears. I couldn't believe it.
"Navi?" I say.
She flies up to me with her brightness.
"LISTEN!"
