Thank's again for all of the reviews~
I don't own The Legend of Zelda
The bright morning Light awakened me from slumber; I tried hard to fight it away but came back to reality. I instantly became aware of the rising and falling of Kovu's chest under me. I must have fallen asleep on Kovu's shoulder, and he probably fell asleep so we landed like this on the floor.
I was afraid to get up and wake him so I lifted my head and looked at him. He was sleeping quite soundly now; last night he didn't look like he was sleeping well.
Kovu's arms were wrapped around me securely so there was no way to make an easy escape. I tried to snuggle closer to him so maybe he wouldn't feel like he had to hold me close to him, but he only held me closer. I had to admit though; this was a romantic encounter. I sighed heavily; there was no way to get out of Kovu's tight embrace.
A rich laugh sent me bouncing up and down, "Going to give up so easily?"
My cheeks burned red and I buried my chest in Kovu's chest. "I didn't want to wake you," I muffled into his chest.
"Well that didn't work very well, but I wake up easily," he reassured me. We sat there for a few moments absorbing each other's company; Kovu finally broke the silence, "What is the plan for today then?"
I sat up and looked at him, "Don't you remember? I'm going to teach you some of the most secret of Sheikah moves, but first you have to learn the basics."
He put his hands behind his head and smirked, "Once we start training I think you'll be impressed with how much of the Sheikah I already know from stealing leaked information."
"I'm sure you've collected quite an impressive amount for not being included in any of our rituals," I assured him.
"Well thank you, but I have to get dressed now. You're free to watch if you want," he chuckled while trying to find his clothes.
I shook my head and went back to my bed to bury my face into my pillow, "Are you decent yet?"
"Yeah, do you have to change now too?" he asked; posing with his hands on his hips. He was wearing a black baggy Sheikah shirt with the red Sheikah symbol on it, and white pants.
"Yes, so put your face in this pillow and don't peak!" I said throwing a pillow at him. He did so and I dressed into dark shade of green tight Sheikah suit, "I'm all dressed now."
"Took you long enough," he grumbled taking the pillow off his face.
I lead Kovu out of the clock town and into the swamps forest, even though it was close to the entrance of Hyrule.
"I'm not very comfortable here," Kovu complained leaning against a tree.
"That's the point of this exercise. The Sheikah are very secretive people, and the only way to keep our secrets we swore loyalty to the crown. I have defied that for you; in return you must work to swear your own allegiance to the Royal Family. Understood?" I asked; no longer joking.
"But of course, I will make it up to the chosen children of the gods," he declared.
I smiled at him, "Fine, now how much fighting do you know about the Sheikah already?"
He looked up thoughtfully before answering, "I know all of the stance positions for every weapon, falling, jumping, diving, and hand to hand combat."
"Okay, I want you to fight me now using nothing but those moves. No weapons," I said reading myself in standard fight position.
Kovu took a deep breath and readied himself, "Ready!"
I nodded then threw myself forward kicking high and low, punching in-between. Kovu was holding up excellently. I couldn't get my hands on him, he kept blocking. He wouldn't switch to offense, so I had no choice but to use a greater attack on him.
I threw him down on his back; I switched into my defense position. He got back up quickly and noticed that I wasn't on the offense any longer. He nodded an understanding. His attacks were placed exactly as a real Sheikah; quick, but strong and hit hard.
My defenses were quite strong against these basic attacks; I threw a few kicks of my own in the mix, and he defended perfectly.
I jumped back and relaxed. "It seems as though you've practiced those moves all you could until you mastered them?" I raised an eyebrow.
He sighed, "Yes, if I couldn't learn everything I figured I might as well become an expert at what I do know."
"Very wise, but now are you ready to know what makes those moves critical for the Sheikahs real power?" He nodded eagerly, "It comes with a rather entertaining story if you would like to sit for it is rather long." He sat down, leaning on a tree and I sat right by him.
"The Sheikah started out as Hylians really. It was so long ago that all of the Hylians had what only what pure Hylians have now; golden hair with piercing blue eyes. Back then Hylians use to live for centuries; children were indeed a rash decision to make. Anyway; the town of Karkio was rather scared of the volcano above them. It took them a lot of courage but the whole village insisted upon peeking inside to figure out what the monstrous noise was coming from the volcano," I explained.
"Wait, the Gorons own that mountain though!" Kovu interrupted.
"I'm getting to that!" I barked at him. "Now, as I was saying the village peered into the volcano and saw the power itself that created the Gorons. Their blood was tainted with that power, and they unleashed that power through the basic techniques that they already knew."
"Is that why the Royal Family made them swear alliance to them, because the village was becoming too powerful?" Kovu asked.
"Yes, the Royal Family told them to put their power to the good of Hyrule and we did," I told him getting back up.
"How do I unlock my power?" he looked up confused at me.
"Since we spent a few hours here now we need to go to Snowhead Peak, it should still work because it is the birthing place of these Gorons."
"We better get going then," he decided.
I nodded and we got back to our horses riding to the mountains. Kovu was already very powerful; perhaps he could surpass my own power. I might just learn something from him too.
