Going on my first date tomorrow! Wish me luck! xP
"Dead."
Sai was holding one of his swords to my throat, and then he swung it back into his sheath that was on his thick belt around his hips. "Again." He turned and walked back to the middle of the spring, leaving me to scramble to my feet.
"Just relax, Alek!" Link called from the sidelines, sitting down and watching me fail.
"I've been relaxed!" I shouted back, turning to shoot him a glare. "And look what that's done!" I motioned to my beat up body, then growled and turned to look back at Sai. "Again!" I shouted, losing my patience.
Sai shook his head. "We cannot fight when you're going on anger." He looked at me with a serious expression, and that just made me angrier.
"Then how am I to fight? Out of pity?" I snarled.
Sai sighed and pulled out his sword. "Again." He repeated, getting into a defensive position.
I ran at him with my two swords out, though he was quick to jump away and slash at me, though I blocked it, holding his sword between mine that were crossed.
"Good." He mused, then quickly jumped away, ducting under my legs and grabbing onto my wrists, pinning them behind my back. "But not good enough." He said with his sword to my throat once again.
I growled, struggling under his grip. And when he let go, I quickly spun around and threw one sword at him. When he was distracted by that, I threw myself at him, my sword going through his left side.
His eyes widened and he opened his mouth in a silent gasp.
"Wha-? Alek, what the hell?" Link asked, jumping to his feet.
I pulled the sword out and the Angel fell into the spring water, and Link ran to his side.
"Are you insane?" He demanded, and I just crossed my arms and showed him my sword.
It was completely clean.
Link's eyebrows knit, and when he looked down at Sai, Sai was healing himself, and he just laid there for a few moments before getting back to his feet. "Very good." He said, wringing out his right bangs.
Link was looking at Sai with wide eyes.
"I told you, did I not?" Sai asked, raising his visible eyebrow to the Hero.
"Told me? Told me what?"
"I am an Angel. I cannot die." Sai shrugged, spreading his arms out so I could get rid of the access water off of his cloak.
"But…" Link seemed so confused. "How?"
"He instantly heals whenever he is wounded." I shrugged. "So he cannot die."
"Not even from age?" Link turned from me to Sai.
Sai shook his head. "I am forever young." He seemed depressed as he said that, but didn't really let that show.
"That's…. depressing." Link looked down again.
"Indeed. But I try to not let it bother me." Sai smiled weakly.
I sighed. "I'm done with this." I sheathed my swords and walked off, only to be stopped by Sai.
His hand was on my shoulder, and as soon as he realized that, he quickly pulled it off. "What time should I be here tomorrow?" He asked quietly.
I sighed again and crossed my arms. "How about when the sun is in the middle of the sky?" I asked, pointing to where the sun would be.
Sai looked up, then nodded. "I will send a message if something happens." He bowed to me, then turned and waved a little to Link before disappearing.
I scratched the back of my head, putting my other hand on my hip.
"Come on." Link wrapped an arm around my shoulder, bringing me over to the graveyard again, stopping when we were in front of Yvaine's grave.
I kneeled down in front of my ancestors grave, sighing. "I don't know why being here calms me down so much…" I muttered as I rubbed the back of my head. I stood up after a few moments and sighed. "How are you feeling?" I asked, turning to the Hero.
"I feel fine, but I think Sai wouldn't like it if we took off." Link sighed, as if it really disturbed him.
I thought for a few moments. "Hold on…" I held up my finger and looked down to the bracelet Farore gave me. "Show yourself." I said quietly.
"My, my. So impatient, are we?" A child-like voice asked with a giggle, and when I turned around, I saw Farore standing behind Link, her smile showing some mischief. "What is it that you want?" She asked as she skipped over to me, some bells jingling, though I didn't see one on her.
Whenever she took a step, grass and a few flowers grew at her feet, though when she took her foot off of the ground, they wilted within a matter of seconds.
"Is Link ready for battle?" I asked as I shifted on my heel to look at the Goddess.
Farore turned to Link who was starring at her with wide eyes, obviously not believing that she was Farore.
"Hi!" She said with another musical giggle, skipping over to him. She skipped around him, and then stopped in front of him, looking at him with a tilted head. "I know I chose the right boy." She muttered. She skipped over to me and grinned. "He'll be fine as long as he doesn't fight the guardians." She said, her smile never ending.
I took a deep breath. That meant I had to do it.
"But if he doesn't fight," She spun around to look at Link again. "You'll get aggravated, right?" She tilted her head slightly again.
Link shrugged.
"So if you leave now and rest at the lake, the next day he should be fine." She looked at me again. "You won't let anything hurt him, though… right?"
"Even if it costs me my life." I said with a nod, looking over to Link.
Link glanced at the floor before looking up at me again, his expression almost embarrassed.
"So cuuuute!" Farore exclaimed, squealing like a fan girl and swinging her hips side to side. She reminded me of a friend back at home…
I felt like something was squeezing my chest, almost like a corset was wrapped far too tightly. I gripped my shirt where my heart would be and looked down.
"Aaaaah, Alek, are you alright?" Farore asked, skipping closer to me. She set her hands on my face and rested her forehead against mine, and I almost instantly began to feel better.
The pain in my chest was fading quickly, and once I felt fine, Farore skipped away, over to Link. "Your turn!" She sang, though instead of doing what she did to me, she grabbed his face in her hands and pulled him into a kiss.
My jaw dropped to the ground, and I quickly looked away, almost nervously.
The kiss lasted for about a minute, and one minute too long to me. I heard her giggle, and then she skipped backwards. "I have to go, but I'll be back soon~!" She sang, then she faded into the tree that was on the little ledge.
Link was left looking completely shocked, with his eyes still wide. "Ale-, I didn't…"
I held my finger up to him and turned my head away a little. "I didn't know she'd do that." I muttered, my hand dropping back down to my side.
Link shrugged. "Neither did I. But hey, can we get going?" He asked, taking a step back.
I sighed. "Sure." I walked by him and towards our horses, not noticing that he seized my hand and walked by my side.
~x~
(For a long time 'cause I don't like writing about them going through the temple.: P)
Link helped pull me out of the water, and I instantly wrinkled my nose. The smell was much worse than I imagined.
We took a few steps forward and then the waterway quickly closed, making Link jump a little.
He then yelped a little when two eyeballs landed in front of us. "What the…?"
A big shadow loomed over us and I shoved Link out of the way and rolled when I hit the ground, just barely missing the Deku Toad.
It shook off the rest of its little freak-babies, and I knew that Link was creeped out by the way he stiffened.
I got out my arrows and Link unsheathed his sword and we started to attack the creatures, avoiding the Toad as it crashed to the ground.
"Link, its tongue!" I shouted, and when I heard the boss screech in pain I knew that Link heard me.
It opened its mouth to roar and I quickly strapped a bomb to one of my arrows and fired, making the Toad swallow it and fall limp again, then Link slashed at its tongue.
We did that two more times before it finally thrashed about and vomited out a blob that simmered down to be a chest, and the Deku Toad exploded.
"Okay, you're opening that." I said, backing away.
Link rolled his eyes and opened it, pulling out a clawshot.
~xx~
We opened the door to the boss' room, and Link sighed, getting ready to jump.
"Not so fast." I said, holding my arm out to stop him.
"What?"
"You heard what Sai and Farore said. I have to kill this thing."
"You're crazy!" Link exclaimed.
"No shit, Elwood!" I snapped back. "The sidekick has to take over for a while. Now gimme the clawshot." I held my hand out to him and he glared at me, then rolled his eyes and dropped it into my hand. I connected it to my arm and held out my arm again. "Iron boots."
He gave those to me as well.
I was about to jump in after I had everything I needed, but Link grabbed my arm to stop me.
"Hey, be careful." He said, turning me around to kiss me briefly.
"Chill, Elwood." I replied with a smile, and then turned around again. "See you on the outside." I tried to jump, but this time, Midna stopped me.
"I'm coming with you." She pointed to Link and teleported him to the outside, and then disappeared into my shadow.
I rolled my eyes, and then finally jumped into the water, sinking to the bottom.
~x~
Morpheel swam around in a panic after I defeated it, crashing into all of the pillars before finally, the wall, creating a big enough dent to drain all of the water. Its body exploded into the last Fused Shadow, and its eye into a heart container.
Midna giggled happily, flying out of my shadow. "There it is! The last Fused Shadow… I'll just take that, thanks!" She snatched it from me with her hair/hand. "Now, don't resent me for all I've put you through, I NEED this thing!" She exclaimed, her voice echoing in the large room. "Besides, we have to do something about Zant, the one who thinks he's the king of shadows… His power is a false one… I'll prove it using these!" She turned away from me. "So, I've done everything I needed to. I'm sorry for dragging you two all over the place with me…" She floated away from me and created another portal. "So… Shall we go?" She asked.
I wanted to collapse right there after getting shocked, thrown about, and exploded on, but I had to keep going. I collected the heart container and took a deep breath, getting ready for Zant to come and hurt Midna. "Let's go." I said, stepping into her portal.
"Alek!" Link exclaimed, throwing his arms around me.
I winced, not feeling any better even with the container.
"Come on, let's go." I urged, glancing to the opening, and not seeing Zant.
Link turned to look at the Spirit's spring, then turned around and took a step forward, only to gasp and look up at the Twili "King".
The two starred at each other for a while, until Lanaryu burst out of its spring and glared at Zant.
Zant, however, didn't even flinch.
A strong burst of power flashed off of him and sent Link and me to the ground and Lanaryu into the opposite wall, leaving the orb behind.
Zant lifted his arm and sent the orb into the water, returning the land to Twilight.
And by then I was completely passed out, but I do remember what happens.
Zant takes the Fused Shadows, beats up Midna, puts that stone thingy in Link's head(now my head's throbbing…), then puts Midna in the Realm of Light and blah blah blah.
"Alek!" I heard muffled shouting, making me stir. Two paws then pressed down onto my side, making me jump to my feet.
"What?" I asked, my eyes wide.
"Come on, we have to go see the Princess!" Link urged, and I could hear Midna's small gasps for air.
My eyes widened again and I instantly took off, heading for Telma's Bar.
~x~
"You there!" Louise jumped down from the window, and then turned to look at us with an almost glare. "You're Link, right?" He asked, since he didn't know me. He walked over to Link and sniffed him, and I was sort of shocked that he didn't mind getting soaked.
"Mmm, yes, I thought so. I could just tell, you know." He then started to talk to Link about mindless things, then told us where to go, even though I already knew.
We carefully walked over the rope, careful not to push any pots too far, even though I loved doing that in the game.
We were now at the top of the tower, just about to head into Zelda's tower. We finished speaking with Jovani, that greedy little bastard.
We climbed onto the window sill and leaped down after shaking off most of the water. As we ran into Zelda's room, we couldn't see her at first.
Thud.
"Midna!" Link barked, feeling the weight lift off of his back.
Zelda then appeared and placed her hand on Midna's shoulder.
"Please… Please tell me…" Midna whispered. "How do we break… the curse on these two?" She asked, reaching her hand up.
Zelda clasped her hands over Midna's, flinching a little as she realized how cold the imp was.
"These… are the ones… You need them… to save your world! That's why… Princess… Please… You must help them…"
Zelda looked up at us and waved her hands over us, her Triforce glowing.
"What binds them is a different magic than what transformed them when they first passed through the curtain of twilight. It is an evil power."
No, really?
"Our world is out of balance… Just as there is light to drive away darkness, so, too, is there benevolence to banish evil." She went on. "Head for the Sacred Grove that lies deep within the lands guarded by the spirit Faron. "There you will find the blade of evil's bane that was crafted by the wisdom of ancient sages…"
The Master Sword…
"The Master Sword. The Master Sword is a sacred blade that evil can never touch. Evil cloaks you two like a dark veil… and that blade is the only thing that can cleave it. Link, Alek… Heroes sent by the Goddesses. Like you two, I have been granted special powers by the Goddesses."
Yeah, but do you have all of their powers? LAWYERED.
"Fine… Link, Alek… You can… You can get to the woods… on your own, right?" Midna asked. "Princess… I have one last request…" She tried to turn her head to look at Zelda, but failed. "Can you tell them… Where to find the Mirror of Twilight?"
Zelda gasped. "Midna… I believe I understand now just who and what you are… Despite your mortal injuries, you act in our stead… These dark times are the result of our deeds, yet it is you who have reaped the penalty. Accept this now, Midna. I pass it to you."
Midna started to glow and lift into the air, and she thrashed about a little. "No! Link, Alek! STOP HER!" She shouted, but it was too late.
Zelda was already fading, and before you knew it, she was gone.
Midna was set on her feet, starring at where the Princess left us. "We go back, Link, Alek! To Faron Woods!" She back flipped onto Link's back, and we were on our way.
But once we reached the outer gates of Castle Town, the castle was set into a wall of Twilight.
Midna held back her anger as she starred at it, then patted Link's sides.
We were both teleported to the woods and saw that girl monkey being surrounded by the Skull Kid's puppets.
We disposed of them quickly and she spoke to us about useless stuff, and when we got ready to jump off, Link brushed his tail against my thigh.
"I don't want you to come with me this time." He said in a low voice.
"Now you're insane." I sat down, as if already taking his command.
"If you say so, Jake." Link shrugged the wolf way, and then licked between my ears. "I'll be back soon." He said, before leaping off of the ledge, disappearing from my sight.
I decided to try and take a nap.
But that didn't last for a while, since it was a bit painful when I changed back to my regular form.
I ended up drawing with a stick again, but this time it was of Yvaine's dragon form, breathing fire onto a town.
"Whoa." Link said, looking over my shoulder. "You're not thinking about doing that, are you?" He asked as he examined the drawing.
"Link!" I exclaimed, leaping to my feet and wrapping my arms about the boy's neck.
Link laughed a little, wrapping his arms around my waist, setting them on my hips. "Its okay, Alek…" He muttered, moving one hand to cup it against my head.
"Good job." I said as I pulled away.
Link smiled at me. "Thanks." He muttered, kissing my forehead. "I think we should stay at my place tonight." He said in a quiet voice, and my face burned red.
"Wh…What?" I asked.
He chuckled. "Not like that." He teased. "It's just really late." He shrugged. "So come on, I'll lead the way."
Yeah, like I don't know where you live… I thought with a roll of my eyes, allowing him to lead the way anyway.
On the way to his house, he told me what he did in the Sacred Grove. I would smile and nod, though think about how annoying it was in the game.
He opened the door to his house and led me inside. "Not the cleanest place, but oh well." He shrugged, and then started to climb a few ladders, leaning over the railway to look at me. "Come on up." He grinned.
I hesitated since I'm kind of afraid of heights, but I climbed up anyway and saw that he actually has a bed. "What?" I asked.
"Here's where you'll be sleeping." He patted the bed twice.
"What about you?"
Link shrugged. "I can sleep on the floor."
"Oooooh, no." I shook my head. "You sleep on the bed." I took a step to the side.
Link sighed. "No, Alek. I'll be fine on the floor."
"But I'll feel guilty!" I complained.
Link rolled his eyes at my childish ways. "How about this." He pushed me down onto my back and climbed over me, smirking. "How about we both sleep on the bed?" He asked with a seductive look.
I looked up at him with wide eyes, suddenly feeling waves of lust roll off of him. I turned my head to the side, making Link think that it was a sign of defeat.
He bent his head down to kiss my neck, his sandy hair tickling my throat and cheek.
"Link…" I felt my breathing get heavy, my chest shaking with every breath.
Link lifted his lips off of my neck and looked at me with his piercing blue eyes, asking me a silent 'what'.
"We shouldn't…" He knew what I was going to say and cut me off by kissing me, taking hold of my wrists with his hands.
I struggled a little under him, but soon gave in so he would release my wrists, and I grabbed fistfuls of his green tunic, arching my back as he wrapped his arms around me.
"Alek…" I heard Link's soft voice mutter my name and it made my heart sing.
He lifted his head again to look at me, then kissed my forehead, then went down to my cheek. "I love you…" He whispered in my ear.
I opened my mouth to reply, but all that came out was a small gasp. I managed to speak a little, though. "Is… Isn't dawn coming soon?" I asked, my voice barely a whisper.
"Don't worry…" Link soothed, nuzzling his nose against mine. "We have all the time in the world, right?"
I looked away for a moment, then as my blush deepened, Link smirked, and resumed to kissing my neck.
All the time in the world, huh? Seems far too short…
.
Ooooh, ho ho. Bow-chika-bow-wow.
