--Chapter 2--
My heart pounded in my chest and I felt a sudden change in the air as his lips touched mine. The butterflies fluttered around quickly in my stomach, making me take in a soft breath through my nose just trying to calm myself down. Slowly, not trying to seem like I was moving too fast for him, I let my hands rest on his shoulders, pressing my lips back to his.
I felt like I could just stay there, my lips against his for forever, but only him.
In an instant, my lips were off his, his hands still holding my cheeks and his eyes were waiting for mine to open. My heart was pounding more rapidly now, just waiting to see what would happen, if anything would, next.
I could feel his hands touch my hands on his shoulders and he pulled them off of him. I opened my eyes, finally, and looked at him, a smile growing on my face. He smiled as well, his eyes shining from what just happened.
"Oh..." I said softly, rising one of my hands to my mouth, remembering the reason I brought him over here.
It just seems so easy to forget about everything else... when I'm around him...
"T-The Legend..." I started, letting my heart slow its pace before I continued. "The Ancient Legend that my family speaks of. You cannot tell anyone else." I stared into his eyes and he nodded, his face was so unbelievably perfect.
"I won't..." He promised me, letting the words come out in a whisper so I had to lean closer to hear him.
"Alright." I closed my eyes, remembering what had happened. "Din... The goddess of Power. Nayru... The goddess of Wisdom. And Farore... The goddess of Courage. Each of them helped create the world that we live in today. They made the Sacred Realm, where only the Hero of Time is able to go. The Triforce is held inside of this realm, the one person to touch the Triforce, shall get a wish, anything they want... granted." I looked away, just for a moment, then I continued to speak. "In order to get to the Triforce, you need the three Spiritual Stones. The three who hold the Triforce's powers within them. And also... Our holy relic, the Ocarina of Time. The holy realm is blocked by a door, The Door of Time. In order to open that door, you need to play the Song of Time on the Ocarina of Time. Once the door opens, you should be able to see a sword in the distance, purged into a stone pedestal. That sword is called the Master Sword. Only the true Hero of Time, can pull the sword out of the stone. When that person comes and pulls the sword out, the Triforce can be accessed. Of course, if you have the three who hold the power, wisdom, or courage in their hearts, then you are able to feel the Triforce."
Very surprising... He's not saying anything... No questions, nothing. Is... he okay?
"The first to touch the Triforce, will be able to make a wish. Any wish, they want... Can come true."
Link was silent for a moment, he just stared at me with dead eyes.
"Link..?" I asked, just wanting to be sure that he heard me and was alright.
I lightly touched his cheek and he closed his eyes, letting out a soft breath, the air lightly hitting my fingers. His mouth curved into my favorite smile.
"I'm alright." He told me, opening his eyes, letting his gaze lock on my face.
"I... I didn't finish." I said softly and nodded. "I know who holds two of the pieces of the Triforce. Power, wisdom, and courage. I believe Ganondorf, the one I'm supposed to marry, holds the triforce of power." I looked my left hand silently, closing my eyes and thinking of the right way to say this. "I hold the triforce of wisdom. And I believe..." I took his left hand softly, putting it up to my cheek. "You have the triforce of courage. I saw something... similar to what I have seen on my hand when I was young. A shine, if I do say." I looked at him and he smiled just a little. "If it is true, you will be able to hold the master sword. You will be the true Hero of Time. But. I'm not sure." I closed my eyes, letting his hand go but he didn't lower it.
"I'll help." He said softly.
"I don't want to force you. Whenever you think you are read-"
"I want to help you." He said, looking me in the eyes. "As much and as soon as possible, Zelda." The way he said my name made shivers run up and down my spine.
"We can try tomorrow... If you don't mind." I asked, trying to regain my composure.
"Tomorrow. Meet me in front of the castle. Or market, your choice." He said, you could hear happiness in his voice.
"Alright, Link..." I said softly, then looked outside to see it was just becoming dark. My smile faded. "It's getting dark. You should leave for now..." I told him, letting my eyes become sad.
He nodded and stood up, I lead him to the front door and stopped infront of it. My gestures made me look like an idiot, but he just smiled at me.
"I'll... See you to-" before I could even get close to finishing my sentence, he had learned in and pressed his lips to mine again, as softly as he could ever.
I closed my eyes and smiled to him, he smiled back.
"Tomorrow..." He pressed his head to my forehead and then I opened the door for him to exit.
"Good-bye for now, Link!" I smiled even more, waving to him as he walked off, turning and waving back with a smile.
I closed the door when I couldn't see him anymore and turned on my heel, walking to my room. I was stopped by my father when I reached the top of the stairs.
"Zelda. Who was that?" He asked, his voice stern, like something was wrong with him.
"Who was he?" His voice had anger rising in it.
Why's he enraged? He's usually so understanding about me talking to people...
"He's a friend I met, Father." I tried to calm him down. "I swear it."
"Go to your room, Zelda. You are not to leave the castle until I say you can." He said strictly, raising his hand and pointing to the way my room was.
Did this mean I couldn't be able to see Link tomorrow? Did this mean that everything that him and I talked about would be useless?
I could tell he meant it, and I didn't want to start a fight with him. It would bring my mother into it and she already had too much on her mind, I didn't want that.
I nodded and turned towards my room, and stopping in front of the door. I glanced to my father and then sighed softly. I opened the door and walked inside, letting it close silently behind me.
Something is not right...
I sat on the bed and slowly started to think of my dreams, my family, what has happened in the last few days, and Link of course. He was the only one that could take all the pain away, everything. His smile, his voice, his looks, his personality, I just knew I've seen him before, the question is... Where?
I stood up and walked to the closet, holding all my nightgowns and dresses, evening and casual. I pulled out just a random nightgown and slid it on, pulling out the earrings I had on as well.
I let my legs guide me back to my bed, sitting down on it and then I laid down. I looked at the ceiling, letting my mind calm down with the thoughts that were going through it.
The Legend... Is it really coming true?
I pulled the covers over my body and closed my eyes, hoping to not have anything close to a nightmare. The last thing I remembered were his eyes, the blue ones and I spoke his name before drifting off to sleep.
"Link..."
The cold gusts of air hit the back of my head as I stared through the window in front of me, trying to keep myself from being seen by the dark figure kneeling down infront of my father. Footsteps were heard behind my young ears and I didn't dare to look, I was too scared. A warm hand touched my shoulder and I glanced to see who it was.
Green hat... Blue eyes... Blonde hair... Green tunic... The sword and shield...
"W-Who are you?" I couldn't control what I had to say, it just came out naturally.
"Link." The young boy said, a small fairy appearing next to his head, but then it turned away and made me look to the sky.
It became dark and the wind was as cold as ice, I latched onto my clothes, trying to stay warm. The gusts of wind slowed down and then rushed at me and Link as he embraced me, trying to help me stay warm.
Another blinding light took ahold of the dream and I closed my eyes, just for a moment though.
Reopening them, I found myself still in his unbreakable grasp, but something was different.
Did we just go through time...?
"Link?" My voice trembled as the words escaped my lips and I looked up at him.
"Zelda..." His voice was so calm, it made all the ice drift away and the gusts of wind just seemed to disappear.
He kept this embrace for a moment, at least, until I looked behind him to find a dark figure bringing himself closer to us. He was surrounded in shadows, and that was what frightened me.
Link turned to look and let me go, pulling out the sacred sword.
T-The Master sword?
He held it tightly infront of him, his arm infront of me to make sure that I was protected, bringing his shield out to protect himself as well.
"Link!" My voice escaped my lips as my eyes shot open.
Why... Why does that dream seem so familiar..?
A soft knock was heard on the window from my balcony and I jumped up slightly. My heart beat so fast as I got out of the bed and peered through the curtains. I shook my head, not being able to see who was there and then I opened the curtains, my mouth opening to see who it was.
Link?
I opened the window and just stared up at him.
"What are you doing here?" My voice was still trembling from the dream as I said the words.
"Couldn't wait to help you... I couldn't wait to see you again..." He replied quickly with a smile, almost knowing what I was going to ask him.
"Link..." I tried to find the words to tell him, but nothing came out.
"You want to come with me?" He kept his voice soft so my father wouldn't hear him, extending his hand to me.
"Go where?" I tilted my head in confusion, trying to figure out where he wanted me to go.
"Temple of Time." His voice was the only thing I could hear now, even if my father came into the room and yelled at me for being up, I wouldn't hear him. His voice could heal all my wounds, all the pain I had trapped inside of me, he made it all go away, just with his simple words. "Anywhere you want to go..." He smiled to me again as I took his hand.
The sensation I felt when I felt his hand against mine was so unreal, like lightning shot through my arm, but it wasn't a bad thing.
"If we're going to the Temple, I need to get something else. Alright?" He let my hand go with a nod and let me walk to the dresser again.
I pulled some of the garmets out of the way and lightly touched the wooden brown box, followed by opening it. I let my fingers skim across the edge of the blue ocarina, a smile forming on my face. I held it against my chest with one of my hands and closed the drawer as I walked back to Link.
"Link. This is the Ocarina of Time." I held it out to him and he reached out to touch it.
Before his hand touched it, I saw a glow in the shape of a triangle on his left hand, same with mine. I smiled at the sight of this and closed my eyes.
"I want you to play this song." I let him take the Ocarina out of my hand and I put two fingers into my mouth, whistling a song for him to play.
He mimicked the song perfectly and without missing a beat or note. I turned around and listened carefully, just to see if anybody had heard me.
"Let's go." He turned away from me and got on the railing of the balcony, jumping off before I did.
I went outside, closing the curtains before I closed the door behind me. I turned on my heel again and glanced over the edge.
Only four stories... And he's there...
"I'll catch you!" He yelled up to me, putting his arms out infront of him with a smile growing on his face.
I was scared, I'll admit it. But the look in his eyes meant he would catch me, meant he would be there, it gave me confidence. I stepped off the balcony and started to fall, soon feeling his arms on my back and behind my knees. I was still and safe, content in his arms. I didn't want to get out of his grasp, I was too happy now.
"Which way?" He looked up and glanced to the market. "I'll carry you. If that's alright."
I blushed and nodded, trying to think of the words to say. "When you get to the market, take a left turn, pass the Happy Mask Shop and there it is." I told him, lightly resting my head on his chest.
I couldn't see the sun and the stars were shining ever so brightly, I couldn't take my eyes off them.
He nodded and started to the temple, holding me safely in his arms. I waited to get to the temple, wondering if he was really the Hero of Time.
My feet touched the ground after a few minutes and I dusted my dress off, smiling up to him. He smiled back and walked with me to the altar.
Everything was silent as he stared around the temple, this wasn't my first time in here.
"Are you sure, Link?" I looked to him, seeing if I could find anything unsure about the looks.
He nodded and pulled out the Ocarina, slowly playing the melody I had taught him just a few minutes ago. The three Spiritual Stones floated out of his bag and landed on the altars, floating in the air above the small circular pedestals. The symbol above the Door of Time glowed a bright gold, the door slowly started to open.
He glanced to me and I let out a shaky breath, starting to walk to the room behind the door. Link had started walking behind me, Navi floating to the sword engraved in the pedestal.
"The Master Sword..." I whispered. "The blade that banishes Evil..."
Navi disappeared back into Link's tunic and then he glanced to me. He nodded and walked up to the sword, me right next to him. I touched his shoulder soft and then looked to the sword.
"Everything will be all right." He told me with a reassuring smile, it made my heart calm down.
I nodded and he stood in front of the sword, letting his hands touch the hilt of it. I blinked and he took a breath of air in.
I know time won't pass by... He's already grown up. He doesn't need time to go by, does he..?
He seemed very hesitant to take the sword, but after letting that breath of air out of his mouth, he pulled on the sword, separating the sword from the stone. Light consumed us and I could see Link was still standing there, the sword in his hands. The light disappeared quite quickly, and I smiled to him.
Everything's going to be okay... He's the Hero of Time... It has to be okay now...
He walked up to me and lightly kissed my forehead, it was just so natural, just so right.
Like it was meant to be
I leaned up just as he pulled away and I pressed my lips to his. He kissed me back just as Navi jumped out and fluttered in front of Links face, making us part.
"Oh Link..." My eyes remained close as I said his name.
I could feel his hand lightly touch my cheek. I couldn't explain how this made me feel, I never felt like this before.
I opened my eyes and saw Navi go back into hiding, like she was jealous, but I didn't say anything, I didn't want to ruin the moment.
"Princess Zelda..." I heard someone cackle behind us.
Link and I turned to the figure in unison, seeing the dark Gerudo standing there with a hideous grin on his face. "I knew you two were the other holders." He glanced to Link. "And you... I knew you had the Stones. How perfectly this all worked out!" He cackled again. "Soon. I will be the Ruler of the world!" He yelled and turned away, disappearing into the darkness.
"Link..." My voice came out softly and I swear he could feel my heart beating rapidly against his chest.
"Everything will be okay, Zelda..." He told me, pressing his lips to the top of my head.
He then put his forehead to mine, and I stared up into his eyes with a smile on my face.
"Link!" I heard a cute and soft voice yell. Navi flew out from her hiding place and you could just tell that something was wrong. "We need to go. Now."
She... talks? How come she didn't when I met her?
"She can talk?" I looked up at Link, my eyes wide from the fairy.
"Yeah. Let's go." He nodded and took my hand, that electricity ran through my arm again and down my spine as we walked out of the temple.
What I had seen, was out of the ordinary, it was so different. I couldn't believe my eyes.
So yeah, End of Chapter 2
I hope you liked it, I'm going to be working on chapter three after I publish the chapter 3 of the CloudxOC story, sorry readers T.T
It would help if you tell me what you like, what you don't like, be critical about it too XD
I would like you guys to be mean and stuff, well... not all the time, just a little bit. That's all I'm asking.
Also!!! I would like to tell you about the Dream that she has. Since it's in italics and whatnot, I would like to say hat every time there is no italics, it's her thought. I don't know if you would be able to tell but I was going to put that in the beginning author notes, but at the same time I didn't want to tell anybody what might happen in this chapter since it was very long and I didn't want them to be going to just one part. I mean seriously, I don't like ruining anything at all. DX
I'm not sure if I should continue this story because I'm not getting a lot of reviews, I mean I want to continue it but I'm not sure right now. I would like to get more reviews, if that's possible. Chapter 3 is being typed out on my computer right now but I'm not sure yet. I need to hear from more people. All the reviews I've gotten though are good, and that makes me feel like I should continue, but I've only had four and I would like, not say NEED, a few more, just to hear feedback from people so then I know I'm not doing this for no reason, I know you like the stories, I keep getting reviews from the same people saying, UPDATE SOON PLEASE. I love those ones =D
Lemme know what you think, I don't mind. I hope you guys liked chapter 2 of ~Dreams~. Chapter 3 is to be updated soon, please review and let me know what you think, I would LOVE to hear if you have any ideas or any requests. Anyway, please let me know, alrighty~! Hope you enjoyed!
