I'm sorry for not updating for a while. It's just so frustrating to write a story and put all your hard work in it when you get one to zero reviews each chapter. I appreciate your comments on the story and hope you all enjoy it~

They were staying clear of Castle Town that was for sure. Where were they going? She didn't know. What will they do now? She didn't know, all her brain could think of was that large werewolf. She didn't even know they existed! Zelda and Link were riding on Epona for quite some time now and the princess decided to break the silence.

"Hey Link…"

"Yeah?"

She took a moment to bring up her question "Did you even see the werewolf?" Link took a while to reply to her, trying to think of a careful answer to give.

"Zelda I don't even think it was a werewolf, you were so stressed maybe you began to see things?" he turned his back to look over at her with a raised brow. Again, silence struck.

"I suppose you're right… do you know where we should head right now?"

"We're going to Karkariko village. I heard there was a Sheikah woman there who can help us get supplied with our journey" Zelda took a minute to take this in. There were almost no more Sheikah left in Hyrule. The legendary clan who swore fealty to the Royal Family. Unless…

"Impa! We're going to see Impa!" she squealed in delight. Epona nickered quietly in annoyance at the disturbance. Link chuckled softly.

"So you know her then?" Zelda's head nodded up and down so fast it looked like she was about to snap it off.

"How do you know her?" That's when Zelda began to drone on and on about her story with Impa. How she would protect her and teach her life lessons as a small child since her mother and father were obviously no parent figure.

"She's great! You'll love her!" Link nodded softly with a smile and the adventure carried on yet again in silence. It would be some time before they managed to get to such a far place as Karkariko. Zelda began to daydream of what had happened so far. Well, she managed to save her friend, left her father and committed the worst crime of all, treason.

What an eventful day that was. Sighing lightly through her nose and stared at Link's body. It was so…flawless. None of the wounds he had left marks? What an odd man. Zelda lifted up her hand and gently stroked the skin of his back, pressing her cheek against his spine.

"Did it hurt?" She asked him gently in the sweetest voice. Link's body stiffened at her touch, unable to comprehend why he enjoyed it so much.

"Ah…no not really" there was hesitancy in his voice, mainly because he didn't know how to react to the girl caressing him. Zelda closed her eyes, knowing he was lying but decided not to bring up the horrible things that they did to him.

"Do you have any family Link? Besides Dyratti and Renaden" Link shook his head.

"None that I can remember, and it's for the better that way. It's not making me sad" he gave her a soft reassuring smile.

"But if something happened to Dyratti or Renaden I don't know what I'd do" Epona gave a small whinnie and slowed her trotting down. Link lured her over to a halt, the meadow was pretty wide and open but he saw a small area with a cave. There was a pool of water in front of it. Link set Epona aside and unsaddled her. It was well around sunset and he sighed, hungry, lost, with no idea where his friends were. Zelda gave him a reassuring pat on the back.

"Let's just go inside and rest for a while, hm?" Link looked up at the cave and raised a brow.

"Do you feel something weird?" He asked Zelda who was sipping the water. Zelda raised a brow at him.

"Weird as in what?" Link stood up and searched the perimeter of the cave.

"Weird as in we're not alone in this cave" Zelda chuckled and splashed water at him.

"Oh stop! You're just stressed out, maybe you're the one seeing things." Link's body relaxed only slightly.

"Well…let's just head off to bed, the faster we sleep the faster tomorrow will come" he stood up and walked into the cave, his body disappearing in the dark. Zelda stood up and dusted off her ripped gown then followed after him. She immediately regretted it.

As soon as she entered the cave split off into different tunnels and she was left in the middle of it all, unaware of what to do. She called out to her friend.

"Link! Link where are you?" there was no reply. Zelda sighed in frustration and began her march on foot through the different twists and turns of the caverns. Still no sign of the boy.

"Oooh! I need to put a collar on him!" she sighed in frustration and rubbed her temples. Taking a step forward, Zelda felt something crunch underneath her shoe. Raising a brow she looked down and saw the remains of a skeleton. What skeleton she could not tell, but it looked an awful lot like a human skeleton…

Shaking the bad possibilities out of her head she began to call Link's name again but to no avail. Zelda began to walk out the way she came from to get to the entrance of the cave. Something had screamed loudly and she stood still. Her body was paralyzed in fear as she saw multiple zombie like THINGS come out from the darkness. What was she going to do?! Unable to do anything she nearly cried as she saw the distorted creatures edge close to her and eat her maybe. One of them jumped into the air to pounce on her and she closed her eyes tightly to not see what they would do to her.

Oddly though she didn't feel anything on her body. Nothing of the sort. She peeked her eye open again only to find the werewolf from before. Grey and black with a hint of brown by its ice blue eyes. She knew she didn't imagine it! The zombie skeletons crowded around it and they all pounced on him, draining away its life. That horrible screech they do made her immobile, yet how was it able to run and charge at them with ease? It must be so fatigued from all the life drained out…

It dawned on her that this beast saved her life. This beast with long flowing fur as a mane. The werewolf stared at her intently, freshly spilt blood on its fur. Its face was fixed in a snarl and Zelda backed away.

"P-please don't hurt me!" she said in a cracked tone of voice. Searching around frantically for something to appease the beast the only thing she found suitable to give it was one of her earrings.

"I don't know if you horde treasure like dragons but please take this!" the wolf's face calmed down and relaxed. It stared sadly at her for a moment then dashed out on all fours to the exit.

That expression. It was undoubtly one of Link's expressions. She had to follow the wolf. "Stop please!" Zelda lost sight of the wolf as she turned a corner in one of the caverns, frustrated she just made her way to the mouth of the cave again, wanting nothing to do with it anymore. She found Epona there, and the werewolf was lapping up water and washing the blood away from its fur.

Zelda's heart skipped a beat in fear and she hid behind a bush to conceal her small body. Why wasn't Epona freaking out that a giant man beast was next to her? None of this made sense! Then it struck her like she fell on hard concrete. Losing all common sense, Zelda abandoned her feeble hiding spot and walked slowly over to the wolf.

"Link…." She said and stood a bit away from him.

Link's fur stood on edge and he swiveled over to look at her. He began to back away from her.

"Link stop it's okay." She said as she walked closer to him. "It's alright" she crouched down by his side and gently pet his muzzle.

Link's eyes bore into hers with confusion and sadness. A bright glow came from his left hand. His triforce. But instead of glowing the all-powerful white and gold it was glowing black and red.

"You're cursed" Zelda whispered to him as she hugged his head gently. "But you can trust me with this. Because I trust you. I know you wouldn't do anything to hurt me, so why dont you relax?"

As if on cue, his shadow swirled and morphed before her eyes. Standing there was a green and black…midget? With a very large helmet, too large for her body actually. A charmy giggle came from her fanged mouth as the demon creature floated in the air.

"Well, well Link! She finally caught on!" the imp floated around her head and stretched her little stub body. She stood as tall as her hip. "I'm Midna, Cursed Twilight Princess"

Zelda's eyes went wide and she screamed, swatting away at the so called princess with her medical purse. "Link get it! Squish it, do something!"

Midna glared and let her fiery hair turn into a very large hand and snatch the purse away from Zelda.

"I am not some roach! I am royalty of the Twilight Zone! Show some respect!" Wolf Link snorted and nodded his head. Now that Midna appeared so did this odd chain that attached itself to his left paw.

Zelda was at a loss for words. The only thing she managed to say was. "How…can you be so short?" Midna growled and was about to whack her upside the head if Link didn't stop her.

"I am cursed you idiot! I didn't know the Princess of Hyrule was this dense. I am here with Link because if he manages to free his curse then there is a high chance of me breaking mine."

Zelda's brow scrunched "But, you both have different curses"

Midna's hair hand shook a finger back and forth at her. "Tsk tsk tsk. That's where I can rebut your argument. You see we've been cursed by the same person and we've teamed up to find a cure"

Zelda just stared at the little imp blankly. "And…how long have you been with us again?"

Midna chuckled and went into the position of lying down while floating in the air. "Long enough for me to see that you sure stare at Link intently while he sleeps" The imp gave a charming laugh that echoed eerily as the princess blushed.

Link gave both of them a confused look. Midna sat herself down on his back like riding a pony.

"Now let's get this straight, hm? I'm only here to guide you in the right direction and give you hints of what's going on. Under no circumstances am I going to do stupid meaningless tasks. Now that that's out of the way, having a good time getting past the re-deads!" she sunk back into Link's shadow.

Link rolled his eyes, typical of Midna. He still called her out again with a bark. Reluctantly the imp came out and sighed.

"Fine. But just this once!" Link let her ride his back while she lifted that gigantic hand in the air. A dark energy field circled the re-deads that were coming out of the cave to them. They were highlighted by this weird aura around them and as the force field dropped, Link was a blur to the eye. His movements were too fast for the human eye to keep up with but Zelda saw that, one by one, the re-deads dropped to the floor and disappeared.

Gulping, Zelda took a step back and took a good look at this greenish black twilight demon. She was stronger than she had estimated. And what did she mean that she stared at Link at night!? That rude thing! Coughing to get their attention, Zelda pet Link's soft fur.

"I wish you would have told me about this sooner. Everything just clinked together now" Link's body melted back into his normal…and much more handsome human form.

"We still have a long way to Karkariko you know" he reminded everyone. Zelda rubbed her eyes and just laid down on the grass where she stood.

"After the whole thing with these…'re-deads' or whatever, I just want to sleep and regain my strength" Midna giggled and gave a yawn of her own as she stretched her arms over her head.

"Suit yourself princess" with that the imp disappeared into Link's shadow again. Zelda grumbled something incoherent making Link smile softly.

"What was thaaaat?~" he asked while poking her side.

Zelda swatted his hand away. "I can't believe she saw everything I did!"

XXXXXXXXXXXX

Mwahaha I bet you didn't expect Midna to pop up did you?

I'm sure all of you knew that Link was a werewolf, I mean I foreshadowed it SO BADLY and SO MUCH.

I'm not really sure if I got Midna's personality correctly. I would appreciate if you tell me some tips or advice if I did anything wrong.

I made this chapter longer than the previous ones, mainly because I think readers like longer chapters than short ones right? Voice your opinion on what you think so far of this story~ It is by far, my favorite.

Read and Review please!
