Chapter 7

Ordon

A/N: Sorry for the delay, I've been in a "Pickle" i guess you could call it. I have been so busy recently. Anyway, here is chapter 7!

I opened my eyes to see that my arm was wrapped around Zelda's waist, and that she was holding onto my arm. I smiled and moved sloster to her.

"Link, Is that you?" she asked.

"Yes," i said. She then pulled my arm closer against her.

"Link, Is that the mirror shard you found before we left?" she asked, looking at the wall it was fixed to.

"Yeah." I said, "I couldn't bring myself to get rid of it. I would never want to lose something that reminds me of my closest friend. It would hurt my heart too much to lose those memories of her. I went through too much with her just to forsake her memory.

Zelda looked up at me and smiled. She seemed astonisted by the dedication i had towards Midna.

"Ready?" I asked her as i got up out of bed, pulling my tunic on.

"For what?" she said with a confused look.

"To visit Ordon." I said, pulling on my gauntlets.

"Oh! I had completely forgotten where we are!" she said looking kind of ashamed. "Well of course i am," she said as she got up and went into the other room to change.

"She had forgotten what we were doing here. She was thinking about me," i thought to myself, pulling the mastersword and Hylian Shield over my shoulder and fastening it.

Just then, the door opened and she emerged, wearing a lovely dress that was the perfect mixture of white and violet. She wore a golden circulet on her head, with her hair pulled into a ponytail. She was beautil and it was astonishing how her outfit really brought out that beauty in her.

"Wow... you look... beautiful zelda," i said studdering. She giggled and pulled me into an embrace, laying her beautiful and flawless face on my shoulder. "Why thank you," she said pulling me in tighter. I wrapped my arms around her for a momemnt. I then pulled away saying, "We have to go visit the town now."

I opened the door for her and watched as she climbed down the ladder with such grace. When she had reached the bottem, i simply jumped down. I landed on my feet and rolled forward, banishing the pressure of the impact. After i straightened myself out, i took her arm in mine and walked towards the town.

When we passed under the archway into town, i noticed Talo stood upon the rock pillar in the center of town. I chuckled slightly, and began making my way over to him. He didnt see us because he was facing toward the goat farm. Mayor Bo saw us making our way over to Talo, and he began to say, "Li..." I motioned for him to stay silent, and a smirk had overtaken his face. He nodded at me and Zelda and I began to make our way towards Talo, who was still facing the other way. I turned and winked at Zelda, and she nodded. We were still arm and arm as we continued. Once we were close to the rock, i turned to Zelda with a smirk on my face. She nodded again.

"HEY TALO!!" Zelda and I yelled in unison.

This had startled him and he fell off the pillar. I then remembered that Talo can't swim. I ripped my arm away from Zelda's and jumped into the river. I grabbed the boy's had and led him to shore. As I climbed out of the river, we all began to laugh. Even Talo was laughing at himself.

"Well, now who is this Link?" Talo said motioning toward Zelda.

"Talo, this is the princess of Hyrule, Princess Zelda," I said to him, smiling at Zelda.

"No Way!" Talo said in surprise. Everyone in town was gathering around to see what was going on. They immediatly saw Me and...Princess Zelda?! A crowd gathered around us, welcoming us back into Ordon.

I then interrupted the crowd saying," We are departing for a journey into the land of Termina, which has somehow befallen the same fate as Hyrule did not to long ago."

"When will you be returning Link?" Asked Mayor Bo.

"As soon as the darness that cloaks the land has subsided," I stated.

After about an hour of talking to the townsfolk, We decided to depart. Sitting atop Epona, we bade everyone farewell and rode toward the rapidly rising sun. Zelda leaned her head on my shoulder and wispered, "So, the adventure begins, Hero of twilight.

"Yes it does," I said, leaning my head onto her's.
