So, this chapter is short; but it explained some things...
Sorry my chapters will get exciting again soon, i am just being a little lazy for the moment~ The excitement will be back soon; and sorry for the wait~
I don't own the legend of Zelda
"Wake up, it's before dawn and if we're going to leave now would be perfect," Kovu whispered into my ear.
I opened my eyes and saw him above me, "I must have been sleeping hard not to notice you packing."
"Perhaps, but maybe I'm just that good," he smirked holding his hand out for me to grab; I accepted it and sat myself up. He handed me my black cloak and pulled out his own. I put it on, grabbed my bag and left the Stock Pot Inn with Kovu by my side.
"Staying anywhere in Termainia would not come to our advantage, so what now?" I asked getting on the black and white horse.
"I'm not sure, perhaps it would be useful to collect some allies to clear my name?" he suggested getting on his own horse.
"No, not allies but family," I said smirking.
He raised an eyebrow at me, "What do you mean? I don't have a family; I already told you that."
"Never mind about it now; let's get going." I kicked the horses' side and galloped off into the forest back to the lost woods. I could find my way back to Hyrule from anywhere; Impa saw to that when I was young.
"How did you know your way through there?" Kovu asked astonished to come out through the other side of the forest into Hyrule.
"Took a lot of practice, anyways we are not out of the woods yet after all," I said guiding my horse through the complicated pass ways.
He sighed, but followed. We left the lost woods into Hyrule field avoiding the Kokiri forest. I kicked up the pace toward Karkio village, "No, we can't go there! It's too close to the castle!" Kovu ran his horse in front of mine to stop me.
"Don't worry; I know my way around the place. Besides its too obvious of a spot for our dear King to look; we must go there," I said casually.
He looked at me suspiciously, "Fine, whatever you say my lady."
I turned my horse in the same direction as his and faced him, "Don't worry about it so much, Karkio is a very relaxed village with only a couple of guards."
"I am just worried for your safety," he said putting his hand on my face.
"I have no doubt you'll save me if I can't handle myself against the ancient hero," I said kissing him lightly. When I pulled away he nodded and let me lead on.
We abandoned our horses outside Karkio and drew no attention to ourselves in the busy town. The tight clan that was once here was gone; now it was a busy but peaceful village. "A lot of travelers came here to visit relatives, or trade with the very true people here, but I mostly come here to see an old woman's secret potion shop, she hand brews her potions and they tend to work the best because she uses fresh ingredients. Not this time though, this time we go to the well," I told Kovu trying to keep long strides.
"May I ask why we are going to an old abandoned and gross well?" he asked keeping up with me with ease.
"It's not, and I can't believe that you don't know the legend about the well," I said stopping in front of the well itself.
"Um, all I know is that an old man who had an eye of truth or something use to live where the well is now," he said bored.
"Yes, but that's not all. The man was the village elder and led the first Sheikah to the volcano, he was a man that loved justice and could tell if one was lying or not. He did have only one eye though, and the volcano's power hit him the most and his eyes felt as though they were peering into your soul," I said as I lost myself to the legend of old that Impa told me around bed time.
"Acandia?" Kovu reached out to me.
"I'm fine. The man used his wisdom and justice to create the moves, and it was him who signed the treaty with the Royal family. He wrecked his house and built that well as a sanctuary for the Sheikah; not all of the villagers went to the volcano after all. They kept their training a secret from everyone including the Royal family," I said sighing at the times of old.
"You speak of this man as if you loved him yourself," Kovu said curiously.
I laughed under my breath, "I suppose you could say that…"
"Ah, so do I have to worry about chasing off a powerful dead Sheikah?"
"No, he is what I strive for; justice. I though Link stood for that, but it seems he is determined to be blind on some matters," I said choking out the hero's name.
"I'm sorry; again," Kovu said pulling me tight to his chest.
"Don't worry about it; again," I said softly. "Let's get going, I haven't been down the well in many years; I don't exactly remember how big it is."
With Kovu helping me down the well we headed down to the Sheikahs old training corse.
Pretty please review, with cherrys on top~
