ZELDA'S POV
I woke up the next day, gasping for air and dripping with sweat. I had a horrible night mare.
I was in a dark room being held to the wall by chains. I tried to remove them with my magic, but they seemed to block my magic. A dripping sound came from the ceiling of the jail-like cell. Suddenly, the door to the cell flew open, and a man was thrown in there. He lay there in a bloody heap. I want to investigate further, but I am chained to the wall. A man in a black cape opens the door and forms a gigantic black ball at the man.
I sat there in my bed and tried to calm my breathing. My roommate was already gone. I have had dreams like these all my life, but now they are becoming even more vivid. 'Who is that man?' I thought. I looked at the alarm clock and saw that I had 30 minutes until my first class started. I took a quick shower and got dressed. All of a sudden, I saw a flash of black by the window. I cautiously walked to the window and saw a black cat by it. Since my room was high up in the air, I slowly opened the window and bring the cat in my dorm room.
"Hey there little guy", I say as I let sat him on my bed.
Much to my surprise, he spoke back, "Hey toots, I hear you have been having nightmares."
I jump back from the cat and grab the closest thing I could find; which just so happened to be a high tennis racket. 'What the hell is Sariah doing with a tennis racquet,' I thought to myself. Then I say, "Who are you and what do you want?"
He chuckled and said, "No to make a racquet …hehehe pun intended. I understand you have become of age to develop your magic skills." I nodded and he continued, "Well, my name is Sheik and I am your guardian spirit."
I looked him up and down, which wasn't hard since he was a cat and asked, "My ancestors sent me a kitty to be my guardian spirit?"
He got mad and said, "I am a feline! I refuse to be called anything lower than that. As I was saying, I am your guardian spirit. I will be teaching you how to use your magic for the greater good of the world."
I then thought about it and asked, "Are you the same Sheik from fight club?
He shook his head and said, "No, that Sheik is one of my decedents. I was a man in one of my previous lives and oddly enough I was a woman in a previous life also."
Still trying to soak in what was going on; I looked back to the clock. I charged out the door and raced down the hall. I AM SOOOOOO LATE.
I run in the room just as the bell rings and ran into Geometry class. The teacher gave me a peeved look and said, "I know you're new here, but try to get here on time Ms. Harkinian."
I went quietly to my desk and prayed for this class to go by quickly.
My next class I had with Link, as I expected, he was waiting there for me outside the hall to walk with me to our class. While we were walking, he said, "So Zelda, how is your hand doing?" I twirled my wrist around and wiggled my fingers to show me it was healed. He looked at me in shocked and said, "Wow, you sure heal fast." I sat in my desk on side of him. I then realized, Link is not the only person I knew who I shared this class with. Ganondorf walked in the door. Link was digging in his backpack so he didn't notice. Ganondorf walked right up to me and grabbed my wrist hard. The strength of his hand hurt a bit, but he didn't realize that I was no longer injured. Link finally took notice and said, "Ganondorf, let her go!" Ganondorf complied and I saw his hand prints go from white (due to cutting of blood flow) to a purplish colored bruise. Link was about to get up to defend me, but I didn't want to get him in trouble. I shot a spell towards him to keep him still for a few seconds. I then sent magic towards a pencil and sent it flying towards Ganondorf's ass. I unfroze Link, partially because it was the right thing to do and also because I wanted him to see this. The pencil stabbed him in the ass and he screamed just like the Disney character, Goofy, did when he fell off of a mountain. The class wasn't sure what happened, but they were laughing hysterically.
As Ms. Impa was walking in, Ganondorf knocked her down ran out of the room towards the nurse's office to get a pencil extracted out of his ass. When Ms. Impa saw what happened, she looked straight at me and started laughing. I was trying to look innocent, but something told me she knew what I had done. Before class started she whispered, "Nice job, but please try to be more discrete when you use your magic." I was shocked, how did she know my secret.
After class, I waited for the class to file out. Link was going to wait, but motioned for him to leave. When the class was empty, I found a piece of paper and I wrote, "How do you know my secret?"
She laughed and said, "I know, because I am a witch too. My nephew Link, will eventually begin to learn of his powers but as of now he does not know they exist. He doesn't even know that I am a witch."
I looked at her questioningly and wrote, "How did you manage that?"
She said, "Look, I know you can talk so you can stop playing charades with me. I just don't use magic around him. I taught him that magic doesn't exist because I want him to live a normal life before he gains his powers."
I nodded understandingly and said, "Thank you, I will try not to use any more magic in front of him, but I can't make any promises. I would also prefer it if no one knew I could speak."
She nodded and said, "Alright then, have a good day."
I nodded and walked to my next class.
During lunch time I sat by the fountain again. Ganondorf walked up to me and said, "I know your secret, if you don't do as I ask I will tell everyone." I rolled my eyes at him and continued eating. He walked away.
A few minutes later, Link walked up and said, "Hey, my friends would really like to meet you? Why don't you come in and meet them?"
I really didn't want to, but since Link was nice to me I nodded and followed him in. He was ecstatic that I agreed, when we got to his table he immediately started to introduce me to his friends, "Hey guys, this is Zelda. Zelda, this is Sariah, Mido, Dark, Midna, Malon, and Ruto. The one he called Ruto was sending me what looked like death glares. I smiled, although I was pretty sure my smile looked like I was ready to kill batman, and sat down. The table was chatting about a bunch of different things. Ruto was practically crawling all over Link and he looked like he was trying not to throw up. I basically sat there praying for the day to end.
Eventually, I made it through all my classes and went to the Gymnasium. Link was already setting everything up with the help of pipit and Gaepora. Since my hand was healed, Gaepora asked if we were going to finish the fight with Ganondorf. Link asked me not to, but I was in the mood for revenge. I walked to the water fountain across from me and saw Ganondorf playing with a ball of fire by the sprinkler system. The fire was magically forming out of his hand. 'So that's how he knows, he can use magic too.' I thought to myself. The fire alarm went off and all the sprinklers turned on in the gym. It made all the mats wet. Since we were obviously not going to have practice today, I helped Link and the rest of the team wipe down the gymnasium. Not surprisingly, Ganondorf, Groose, and Vatti were nowhere to be seen during the cleanup.
After we cleaned it up, Link walked me to my dorm and asked, "Zelda, I know we don't know each other well. But I feel a strong connection to you like I have met you before. Would you like to go out sometimes?"
I frowned and was about to turn him down (now don't get me wrong, he kind of cute but I just had too much on my plate right now.) Sariah then popped her head out and said, "Zelda, Link, how nice to see yall. I was about to watch a movie, would yall like to join me?"
Link looked nervous and said, "As long as Zelda doesn't mind,"
I smiled at him and gestured for him to come in. Sheik the cat walked around my legs as I walked in the door. I pet his head and laid on my stomach in front of the TV. Link sat on one side of me and Sariah sat on the other.
Sariah picked "The Phantom of the Opera" and I surprisingly enjoyed it. It had a fair amount of action in it. Link had fallen asleep towards the middle of the movie and quickly got reprimanded by Sariah. He grinned sheepishly and went to the kitchen to pop more popcorn. I followed him and grabbed us three sodas. While we waited for the popcorn to finish he said, "So what do you think?" I looked up, not knowing what he was talking about and he continued, "Would you like to go out sometime?" I wanted to say no thank you, but for some reason I nodded. He smiled and said, "Great, I know a great little restaurant nearby. We could go after fight club tomorrow." I smiled and we went back to the movie.
