Imprisoned
A/N Sorry this chapter took so long, I've been busy and sick these past few days so I didn't really have much time to write. But here it is, chapter 2. Please review so I can improve this story.
Disclaimer: I do not own Legend of Zelda, but I do own a copy of Legend of Zelda: OoT 3D, sweet!
As Zelda sat there, watching the scene unfold from her balcony, she could tell that whatever was in there may not be hostile, but was strange nonetheless. Suddenly, one of the guards burst into her room and yelled, "Princess, something strange crashed into Hyrule! Link is coming to see what it is and would like you to come along as well." Zelda looked at the guard with a slight bitter expression, she hated being called princess, no matter who it was from. "Well alright," she replied nervously. She didn't know what was out there, in the fields outside of Castle Town, but she was sure that it wasn't normal. Zelda then followed the guard and met up with Link in the foyer. "Hello Zelda, ready to capture whatever's out there?" Zelda looked at Link with a look of disgust and genuine disappointment. She thought Link would know better than to try and kill this creature, who knows what it was. "Goddesses Link, don't you dare kill a creature that for all we know could be innocent," Zelda nearly shouted. Link looked at her, shocked, until finally giving up. "Alright Zelda, if you don't want me to kill this potentially deadly creature, don't say I didn't warn you if it kills us all."
The small group then joined the crowd in the field where the object landed. Some people had pitchforks and torches, though they immediately burnt out in the rain, ready to kill whatever was in that chamber. It was pod-like, as some people said. Suddenly, the door to the pod opened, revealing a strange thing that was nearly identical to a Hylian, except for rounded ears which Hylians did not possess.
The creature looked around for a second before finally speaking, "Where am I," it asked loudly. None of the people answered. After a long period of silence, it again asked, "Where am I?" Finally, one of the guard answered, "This is Hyrule, are you friendly?" The thing looked us over and immediately noticed the pitchforks. The thing then said, "Well I'm pretty sure you're not, and if that's true I feel bad for you." Someone finally was able to ask, "Why is that?" "Well keep pointing those pitchforks at me and you'll find out. Seriously, you're going to poke somebody's eye out with those!" The thing looked at Zelda closely, as if contemplating something. The guards saw it look at her and crossed their spears in front of her, creating a barrier. Link then stepped forward and said, "What is your name, creature?" It looked at Link with a slight look of amusement. "Shaun Wolf, and don't call me creature, I'm a human being you ass!" Link looked stunned and spat back, "You're lucky my sister doesn't want me to kill you beast! Because I would have had your head already if it weren't for her!" Shaun looked at him with a smirk, almost knowing that if Link were to even try to kill him, he would not live much longer. A long period of bickering followed until finally, Zelda then took a stand and shouted, "Enough! Goddesses Link, at least you should be mature enough to be above this behavior! Regardless that you're my brother, I still have more power than you!" Zelda took a deep breath and looked at Shaun. After studying him, she asked, "Where do you come from visitor?" Shaun looked at her, almost stunned at her beauty. She had silky brunette hair and crystal blue gems of eyes. But the one thing that intrigued him the most about Zelda were those pointed ears she had. He couldn't help but think those ears were sexy. Shaun then mentally cursed himself, he can't think of those things right now, he had to get back to Hantora. It was then he remembered that he had to answer Zelda's question. "Umm, Hantora. Who are you?" Zelda had a look of confusion on her face and said, "I'm princess Zelda of Hyrule, umm, where is Hantora?" Shaun looked at her for a moment. She was royalty, that meant she had money, which he could steal and use to get off of this planet. But for some reason, he didn't want to do that, almost as if he didn't want to hurt Zelda, but more comfort her and hug her and... kiss her. Shaun then mentally punched himself. He could NOT think like that. Not now. He had to get back to Hantora and kill Vladimir Kronos. But the problem was, he didn't know where Hantora was either. Was it in a different solar system, a different galaxy, a different universe? He didn't know for sure. "That's really what I want to know, it's a long story. But you see, I was basically... well I suppose you could call it exiled by-" "HA," Link shouted triumphantly. "You were exiled, which means you did something bad, which means we can lock you up! GUARDS!" Zelda stared daggers at Link, which made him back down. Link knew better than to get on Zelda's bad side. "Why were you exiled... Shaun, is it?" Shaun nodded and replied, "Well you see, the government on my planet is run by evil bastards who force us to live in poverty. Most of the people on my planet are uneducated and the only real way to survive is to fight. But there is... well was a rebellion that fought them. I was the leader of that rebellion. But we lost, all of my friends were dead, and I was launched into space, where they thought I'd die, but I landed here." Zelda looked at him with a new sense of respect, it would take a lot of bravery to go up against a whole entire government. "How old are you Shaun," Zelda asked abruptly. Shaun didn't quite understand why she wanted to know that, was she trying to see if I was old enough for a relationship? Shaun just stopped his thoughts right then and there, he was done with his thoughts about Zelda, now was not the time. "Uhh, 16. How old are you." Zelda then looked at Shaun as if he was insane, he was 16 years old and was fighting a war with his government! That's just crazy. But Zelda knew better than to say that, it would most likely insult him if she did. "I'm 17, is there anything else?" Shaun then realized something critical, this place was way unadvanced. This place basically represented a renaissance society of sorts, there would be nothing like spaceships or anything like that! Shaun then deflated instantly after discovering this. Zelda immediately noticed this and looked at him with worry. "What is it Shaun?" Shaun then said sadly, "This place is too unadvanced to have spaceships so I can't get back to my home planet. I'll never be able to save my people."
Zelda was crushed by this. Shaun would never be able to save the lives of those poor people living on that hellish planet. She hated seeing others suffer, no matter what the circumstances, that's why she never went to any of the executions Link implored her to go to. Link then shouted, "No matter what, we don't know if he's telling the truth! He could be lying to us!" Shaun looked at Link for a good long while, sizing him up and finally replied, "Well your sister knows I'm telling the truth don't you Zelda?" Zelda looked at Shaun, then at Link. "W-well, umm. I...I don't know for sure." Shaun looked at her with a look of shock. He was telling the truth and he didn't know why Zelda would even think otherwise. "Well, since Zelda doesn't know what to think, I guess it's up to me to decide whether or not this... thing will be imprisoned or not. And I say that he should be imprisoned for life! Guards, seize him!" Zelda tried to tell Link to listen to reason with all her might, but Link didn't listen to her at all. Most of Hyrule's guards seized Shaun, the others were behind the crowd, in case he escapes. Once the guards got close enough, Shaun pounced. He was pounding on all the guards he could get his hands on. A guard tried to stab him, but Shaun was able to grab the guard's spear and pulled it away. He was being very careful not to kill or severely injure any of the guards in case he was captured. He didn't want anything else to be used against him. But soon the guards were able to subdue him and tied his hands and feet. Link looked at him with a triumphant smirk. Shaun was enraged but knew better than to try anything, he would escape later. Link knew what would become of Shaun in the prisons, where the toughest and most evil people in all of Hyrule are kept locked away. Shaun may last a short while, but not forever.
A/N Yes, big cliffhanger moment at the end of the chapter. I actually might just continue with this instead of my other story. Let's be honest, it wasn't the best fanfic. But this could be very good, maybe even great.
