Little Moments || Link x Mipha

Leviathan Bones 3/3

Mipha's POV
Sooga grabbed his blade and held it against Link's chest. I'm not going to lose Link. Before Sooga thrust his blade down, I used the end of my trident to stop it. I then knocked the blade out of his hand. Aven, Zelda, and Evika were able to catch up and pin him down. I quickly gave my attention to Link. His eyes were closed. I started to fear the worst. "Link," I said worried. "Link!" I put my hand on his heart and I could feel it beating, but slowly.

I could hear the lynel break out of the ice and its hooves rampaging about. It was coming straight for Link and I. Luckily, Zelda came into view and a light came from her hand. It encased the lynel and disappeared. The lynel fell dead. "Evika," Zelda called out, "help Mipha with Link! Quickly!" Evika ran from Sooga and came to my aid. Zelda ran to Aven's. I whistled and Epona ran closer to us. Evika helped me lift Link onto Epona. I hoisted myself up and grabbed the reins. "I'll be back!" I told Evika. "You go help the others!" She nodded and left. I quickly made Epona press forward to Aldor Foothills.

After I found a good spot for camp, I dropped down from Epona and got Link down. I laid him up against a rock. He slowly opened his eyes. "M-Mipha," he said raspy.

"Oh, you're awake!" I hugged him and then pulled away. "Now let me heal your wounds." I cleaned up the blood on his face and fixed any wounds that he had. Link looked around.

"Where's Sooga?"

"I had to have the others deal with him to help you." The sounds of horses came from behind me. I looked over and Zelda, Aven, and Evika came over. "Oh, you're all alright!"

"For the time being," Aven said wiping away sweat. "He retreated, so let's not let our guard down."

We set up a campfire and we all sat down. As I looked at Link, I remembered about what Zelda did to that lynel. I looked over to her. "Zelda," I said gratefully, "thank you for dealing with that lynel back there. I wouldn't have been able to get Link out of there if it wasn't for you."

"Your welcome," she smiled.

"Wait what?" Link said confused.

"When you were blacked out, that lynel broke free. It was coming straight for us, but then Zelda used her sealing power to stop it," I explained.

"Saved once again," he slightly laughed. We all chuckled at his remark.

Link's POV
Evika quickly trotted faster in front of us and stopped. "Yep, this is it alright," she said to herself. She turned her horse around to face us. "Champions and royalty, I give you the Eldin Leviathan Bones!" She gestured us to follow her a little ways and right around the corner, there was a giant skeleton. Some bone fragments were along the ground, but majority of it was intact. The head and the ribs were gigantic.

Zelda started to urge her horse forward. "What are we waiting for?" She said excited. "Come on!"

"Zelda, wait!" Aven grabbed her arm before her horse started moving any faster. The horse stopped. "We need to be careful. Look." He pointed to the ribs. Inside it was a monster camp, full of bokoblins and moblins.

"Then what do we do? I don't want us to damage the bones while fighting them. Evika, any ideas?"

"These monsters weren't here last time," Evika said scratching her head. "The only thing that I can think of is to lure them out. There's so many though." I looked at the monsters again. Majority of them were red and blue so I could easily take them out. The others would need more work, but I've dealt with much worse before.

I jumped down from Epona. Mipha quickly got down as well and touched my shoulder. "What do you think you're doing?" She asked firmly.

"Mipha, I'll be fine," I assured. "I'm just going to lure those monsters out and deal with them."
