A/N- Tank ya, spiritofwater and UnbowedUnbroken! I love reviews! As I said in the PM, spiritofwater, thank you for that little thing. I wrote in the last chapter, I was thinking about what my life would be like if I spoke backwards for the rest of it, so I accidentally wrote that.
Disclaimer- I do not own Zelda or You Make Me Want To Be A Man.
Link sat up, sweat on his face. That dream... no, it wasn't a dream. No matter how much Link wished that it had just been a dream, it was not. Ever since Milly had died, he had been replaying those images in his mind. Every single night Link would wake up, thinking about the girl that he loved.
Link closed his eyes, remembering everything with precise detail. Remembering what had happened that terrible night.
"Someone's coming! C'mon, Link!" She pulled him away from Milly and behind the crates. They heard heavy footsteps and a few other lighter ones. "Ganon..." Chelsya breathed. Link stared at her in alarm. He peeked over the crates to watch and Chelsya soon followed his example.
"You are of no use to me anymore. I used you to draw Link out, but now... well, we don't really need you anymore." Ganondorf stared at her calmly. "Would you rather have me kill you now, or somewhere in private?"
"I-I'd rather you not kill me at all!" Milly cried, glaring at the large man in front of her. He smirked at her.
"Well, I suppose that is just too bad." Ganondorf brought his sword out, the black blade sliding smoothly from its sheath. Link was about to take a step forward, when he felt Chelsya hold him back.
"Link!" She whisper/shouted. "We can't blow our cover! I'm going to be honest, I don't think that you're ready to take on Ganondorf! You haven't seen his power! And you don't even have the stupid Master Sword, yet!" Link stared at her helplessly.
Link's eyes were wide as he watched the sword plunge into Milly's chest. Milly glanced at Link and smiled softly. She mouthed the words I love you. Link felt a pang as Milly went limp.
"No..." Was all Link could say. Unfortunately for him, Ganondorf heard him. Ganon turned and saw Link and Chelsya peeking over the crates. Chelsya was the first to react.
"C'mon, Link! We have to get out of here!" She grabbed his arm and began pulling him towards the trap door.
"Blood Knight!" Ganondorf shouted angrily. "Don't you want to save your precious sister!? Come here!" Chelsya ignored him, focusing on getting a stunned Link out of there.
"NO!" Link suddenly burst out, tears in his eyes. "MILLY! YOU CAN'T BE GONE! I LOVE YOU!" Chelsya felt tears come to her eyes as she pushed Link down the trap door.
There was nothing like loosing the one you loved.
Link sighed, pushing his long hair back. Milly... the most wonderful girl that Link had ever known... she was very sadly dead. But at least Link knew that she was somewhere better than this cruel and cold world. Link blinked as he heard a rustle behind him.
He turned and saw Chelsya packing her bags and putting them on her horse, Shiroi. When she noticed him, she blinked. Chelsya's eyes suddenly turned dark and she turned away from him.
"Where are you going?!" Link asked in a low tone so he wouldn't wake anyone else up. Chelsya grabbed the sleeve of his arm, fire in her eyes that Link had never seen before. She pulled him aside and began to speak to him in a low voice.
"Link, I'm leaving, okay?" Chelsya hissed. As Link was about to speak in protest, she put her finger on his lips. "No. Link, have you noticed that we seem to be fighting more and more often? Me and you just do not see eye to eye anymore. We need a break from each other, and this is a good time. No matter what you say, I'm leaving."
"Why do you think I would even want you here?" Link whispered, the words slipping out of his mouth almost automatically. Chelsya's eyes narrowed and she pulled him even deeper into the forest until they could talk easily without being heard.
"See, Link?! That is exactly what I'm talking about! You and I need a break from each other really bad, and the only way is if I leave! Me and you... we just don't understand each other as well as we used to!" A light suddenly came to Chelsya's eyes. "All right, I have a song that might explain how I'm feeling right now!"
Chelsya took a step back from Link and took a deep breath before she began to sing.
"I really wanna tell you something
This is just the way I am
I really wanna tell you something
But I can't
You make me want to be a man!
Arguments that have no meaning
This is just the way I am
You really wanna tell me something
But you can't
You make me want to be a man!"
"The thunder and the rain
Called you and you came
We didn't need to say
Much to communicate
Now it's different
Ninety-nine percent
Is misinterpreted"
"I really wanna tell you something
This is just the way I am
I really wanna tell you something
But I can't
You make me want to be a man!
Arguments that have no meaning
This is just the way I am
You really wanna tell me something
But you can't
You make me want to be a man!"
"Every word you say
Finds a home in me
Nothing that anyone could ever say
Could hurt me like this!
Baby please, don't light that cigarette
Don't light that cigarette"
"I really wanna tell you something
This is just the way I am
I really wanna tell you something
But I can't
You make me want to be a man!
Arguments that have no meaning
This is just the way I am
You really wanna tell me something
But you can't
You make me want to be a man!"
"I really wanna tell you something
This is just the way I am
I really wanna tell you something
But I can't
You make me want to be a man!
Arguments that have no meaning
This is just the way I am
You really wanna tell me something
But you can't
You make me want to be a man!"
Chelsya turned around the moment that she finished the song and walked away, leaving Link just standing there and staring after her. He wasn't quite sure that he understood, but he got at least a part of it.
Chelsya didn't understand Link, but she wanted to. She was on the brink of entirely giving up on him. For some reason, when Link realized that she was, indeed, leaving, that made him hurt inside. Him and Chelsya were very good friends, and to know that she was about to give it all up, to give him up, it just hurt for some reason.
After about ten minutes of Link thinking about this, he realized that she would be gone by now and Link wouldn't even have the chance to say goodbye. He walked back to the camp in hopes that she was there so he could say goodbye, but Chelsya had already left.
There was someone awake though. Legan smiled at Link, turning her back to him. "I hope that you do realize that the Blood Knight was right, and that I was smart to cloak myself in magic so I couldn't be censored. Lucky, lucky, O Hero..." Link blinked at her in shock, realizing what an idiot he had been.
Chelsya was, for once, right.
A/N- OH! Now I get to do half of the chapter about Chelsya and half of it about Link! Yes, the split adventures of Link and Chely! And what about Legan!? Why does she want to kill Link so badly!? Find out if you R&R!
