Hyrule's Fate
Chapter 11
That clap sent chills down my spine. I watched him appear from the shadows. I knew that this couldn't be good.
"Well well, what do we have here?" he asked rhetorically. I knew better than to answer. "Hmm?" He looks from Zelda to me. I freeze. His gaze made my stomach turn.
"Zelda, I take it that you do not like the idea of us getting married?" he says with a grin.
"No one should marry you, you are a monster!" she yells.
A sly grin forms on Ganondorfs face. He clicks his tongue. "I believe someone is jealous. Zelda weren't you the one who wanted to marry me at one point?"
Zelda's face turns from white to red.
"Don't lie princess" he says cunningly. "See Beth, she didn't want you to marry me because she wanted me all for herself".
"Don't believe him!" she yells at me. I didn't know what to say. I was a bit shocked at the both of them. Zelda wanted to marry Ganondorf and Ganondorf admitting to all of it.
"Well what made you not want to marry her?" I ask him.
He looks at her with that grin still on his face, and looks at me. "She did not interest me" he said.
Zelda's eyes widened. "That is a lie! You were interested until you found out I didn't have a piece of the Triforce!".
I looked at Ganondorf. I knew she had struck a nerve. His expression said it all.
"Beth" he says in a low voice.
"Yea?" I reply in a shaky voice.
"Go to the bed chamber" he says.
"Wh-" I was interrupted.
"NOW!" he roars. Before I turn around to leave, I take a look at Zelda. She had made her way to the corner of the room. This would probably be the last time I say her. I turn around and made m escape.
I didn't wait around to see if I heard any magic or screaming. I had lost so much already, I didn't want to lose anything else. I followed his orders and went to 'our' bed chamber. I didn't know how bad my punishment would be, since I went down there. I finally made it to the door. I open it and go lay down on the bed.
Question after question were running through my mind. Is he going to kill her? Will he tell me if he does? What about Navi? I nearly jump out of my skin when I heard the door open. It was him.
My heart stopped when I saw blood on his hands. I didn't show any emotion.
"Depending on how bad you react, is how bad your punishment will be" he says to me. I didn't move. I just stood there. He walks up to me and opens the palm of his hand. I nearly fainted when I saw what it was, but I just stood there showing no emotion.
It was Navis wings. I could feel him staring at me. His eyes penetrating me. He closes the palm of his hand.
"Ahh, I see I have made you strong. Very good" he says and walks away. Was that it? Was he not going to punish me? He walks over to his desk and sits down. He starts to rumble through paper.
"Im going to go and take a hot bath" I tell him. He doesn't respond. He doesn't even look up. I had to get away from him. To him I showed nothing, but on the inside I was dying. The walk from the bedroom to the bathroom was horrific. I imagined every way he could have done that to her.
I run my bath water and get in. I made sure the door was closed because I didn't want Ganondorf hearing me cry. I sit down and let the hot water burn my skin. Tears left my eyes. Why Navi? I know she led me there, but Zelda was the one who spoke out of context. Zelda was the one who wanted to marry you.
Was I really getting jealous over her? I hear the door creak open. I try to wipe the tears from my eyes.
"Are you crying Beth?" he asks me. He almost sounded concerned, but I wasn't going to let my guard down. It might be a trick.
"No, its just when I first got in here the water was hot and it made my eyes water, but its all good now" I said. He just looked at me. I had my knees brought to my chest so you couldn't see anything.
"Alright" he says and walks out. Was that it? I shook it off and sank down into the water. I closed my eyes and let sleep take everything away.
