Legends Live On

Chapter 10: A Watery Grave

Just a warning, this chapter goes back and forth between the views of Link and Sora. Because, figuring that your reading this.. You know quite a bit about the game and hate the Water Temple. (Unless your LiamSixx and can destroy the Water Temple.... Then thats a different story.)

Link:

Link sunk down to the bottom level of the temple and turned around, something was pulling him into the room behind him. He didnt know if it was the right way but he trudged on through the water, another thing he didnt know and didnt understand was the way his tunics worked. Red for Fire and Blue for Water. He couldnt drown with the Blue tunic but he could drown in the red tunic. and Vice versa with the Red tunic.

"Oh... You....." She studied the man closely, "If I'm not mistaken... Link??" Her dumbstruck face turned into one of joy, "You're Link, aren't you? Do you recognize me at all?"

"A little, but we were younger then." Link replied, surprised he could talk underwater at all.

"It's me, Your Fiancee. Ruto." She smiled then added, "The Princess of the Zoras!"

Link flashed back to the day the small fish girl made him carry her, only to be piggybacked by Sora. The glee on her face when she got back the sapphire and the gentle face of Sora when she patted him on the shoulder, "Yeah I remember...." He mumbled.

"I never forgot the vows we made to each other seven years ago." She smiled then frowned, "You're a terrible man to have kept me waiting these seven long years... However, we have more important matters to talk about right now. Love will have to wait." Her face grew serious, "I'm sure you've seen it, Zora's domain, Frozen over."

Link nodded a little, "I went over to see if anyone needed help... But found no luck finding anyone. I unfroze your father." He replied.

Ruto looked at Link gratefully then continued, "A young man named Sheik saved me from under the ice. But the other Zoras.... I want to save them all. I want to save Zoras Domain!"

Link looked at her for a minute then smiled a little, "You've grown into a fine woman yourself Ruto. With you leading your people, I'm sure you'll do alright."

Ruto blushed then continued, "You have to help me, this is a request from the woman who is going to be your wife. You have to help me destroy this evil monster that lurks in this temple." She stared at him with pleading eyes.

"Alright." He agreed, "Was supposed to do that anyway but whats the harm in bringing you along?"

Ruto smiled and started swimming towards the top beckoning Link to follow her, "There are three places in the temple where you can change the water level." She smiled as she watched Link swim up towards her then noticed the absence of a certain red haired girl. "Hey wheres that girl that you had with you that day?"

Link winced, "Shes... Captured.. By Ganon"

Sora:

Sora's stomach grumbled, "What happened to no torture?" She muttered to herself as Sheik, the man next to her, snored lightly in his sleep, "Oh right. That one tactic I was..." She shook her head again, "I cant think of that. I can get out of here..."
