It was a few days after the ball. I was working and Dark nagging within his shadows that I see a strange man walk into the tavern. He doesn't order anything and I watch as other people come in and some sit with him. I go up to them to see if they want to order anything and I manage to hear a little of their conversation.

"So hear anything about the hero?" The one that was there the longest there said to his comrade.

"Nope," The other one says and he notices that I was standing there.

"Would you like to order?" I ask them and they glare at me. I just smile at them and I see them get angrier.

"No we don't need anything!" He growls at me.

"The owners, and the workers here don't like people just taking up space here." That makes them order some drinks and I walk off. I told Dark to watch them and I give them their drinks.

Later that night they leave and as I'm cleaning Dark comes up to me. He said that they were talking about the hero and something about they need him. I don't say anything and Dark disappears. John comes in and orders his drink for the night, gets wasted and leaves. I was about to go to bed when I hear someone at the door knock. I look out the window and see Ganondorf. I was about to pretend that I was asleep but he sees me in the window so the plan wouldn't work. I open the door and let him in.

He sits at a table and motions or me to sit also. I sit and he looks worried for some reason.

"Did you hear anything about the hero from people coming in?"

"Maybe... Why?" I ask.

"They are planning a revolt and they are trying to get the hero on their side."

"Why would that matter? Don't you have the hero?" I mock at him but make it sound like I'm clueless.

"Not at the moment... He escaped." He leans his head on the table. "Did you hear anything?"

"Two people came in and said stuff about the hero but I didn't hear the whole story," I tell him and he has a small grin on his face.

"Thanks" He leaves after that and I go to bed... But forgot to lock the door.


I open my eyes but close them from a huge pain I have in my head. I crack my eyes and look around the room I'm in. It looked like a sewer and even more so with the awful smell here. I try to move my hands but I find them tied, same with my feet. I see a person coming so I mask the pain in my head with anger.

"Looks like you're awake." He says and crouches in front of me.

"What are you doing?" I ask and he stands.

"We need you to help us bring down the king!" Says with pride and I glare at him.

"So you need my help," He nods "Alright. So explain why you would kidnap the person you need help from!?" I shout and he stops and blankly stares in front of him.

"That is a good point..." Did I get kidnapped by the dumbest people in Hyrule? I watch as they work around trying to explain their plan to me but I'm not listening to a word. I need Ganondorf alive for a bit longer and if they kill him then I'm stuck here forever... Unless that would send me into the battle like it never happened. I'm thinking to myself when I see Dark appear behind one of the guys and knocks him out. He disappears before they see him and their buddy falls to the ground. I see as Dark does this everyone and when he walks up to me he is smiling.

"Was that necessary?" I ask him and I rub my hands that he untied.

"It was more fun to mess with them then just finishing it quickly!" Dark says in a sing-song voice. I shake my head and we walk out of the sewer, thing. Although we both have no idea where we are or how to get out so we get lost. We wander around for a while before I find a hatch above me. Dark gives me a boost and I open it. I thought it would lead to the street or a house but no, it had to lead into the castle. I look around the room and see that outside a window it is dark out. Everyone should be asleep so I climb up and close the hatch. Dark appears behind me and we walk through the halls. At least I know all the rooms and can easily find myself out.

As I turn a corner I bump into something broad and fall to the ground. I look up thinking it would be a guard but I see Ganondorf who looks completely surprised to see me. I smile nervously and get up.

"What are you doing here!?" He yells at me and I shrug.

"I woke up in a sewer and couldn't find a exit until I found one leading into the castle," I say and look at the ground, trying to pull a innocent act.

"Come this way," He says and drags me into the kitchens. After closing the doors and locking them. I get a little nervous at that but I see that there is another set of doors to run out of if need be. "Why were you in the sewers anyway?" I don't know how to answer that without giving away that I'm the hero.

"Some creeps saying that they needed to take over or something. I wasn't paying attention," I say and look at him to see if he can put together why they would bother with me.

"Yes! Now I know where they are!" Ganondorf cheers to himself and I look at him. He is happy about that? Well now that I think about it he asked me about them before...

"Um... I didn't mean to bother you but can I leave?" I ask and he looks at me.

"It's midnight I don't think that you would be able to get into that tavern right now," He tells me and I remember that I had to be gone for a day at least and the tavern would be locked by now. With the keys inside or someone has them. "You can stay here for the night until you can get into the tavern." I accept and he leads me into a extra room. I don't want to stay here but it would be more dangerous to stay outside waiting for the tavern to open and let me in. He opens a door and I head inside, thank him and he leaves.
