~Y/N's POV~

The moon rises in the horizon, the dim light entering the colorful windows. The main room, where we are standing, has  two stairways to the left and the right, both of them leading to an upper hallway, must be the rooms. Four doors decorate each left and right sides of the room, must be the door to the kitchen, dining room... And other places a castle has. To be honest this is my first time in one, the Goddesses don't live in such places, they live in manors, but what's a manor compared to a castle?

All people gather in the main room, an enormous wood door closed in front of us, with butlers side to side from each door.

Y/N: The ballroom...

The people wear all kinds of masquerades and beautiful dresses, most of them exotic, like a reminder that they came from other land... Or I would say, a reminder of how they had power over so many people. Neither of them are old, all of them are nearly our age.

None of them shows a trace of pure excitement, I have two theories: Because of this party since some weeks ago, or maybe because they are used to this kind of parties.

Noble Woman 1: Oh dear. Who's that girl with Link? I've never seen her before.
Noble Man 1: Maybe you have, but supposedly Masks should hide who you're are.
Noble Woman 2: I'm so jealous of her! She's with the hero!
Noble Man 2: What are you saying?! I'm your date you know?!
Noble Woman 3: Oh c'mon, are you going to fight over Link? He'll choose who to dance with, and I bet it'll be the Princess.
Noble Man 3: Well, I wouldn't mind dancing with that girl.

Link: Everybody stop!- Link's voice sounds really annoyed. Suddenly silence floods the room and Link takes my hand tightly in his.- I'm going with Y/N.- I feel heat rise in my cheeks. Whispers and growls fill the environment.

Noble Woman 4: But hey...- The woman is interrupted by the creak of the door opened by four butlers, two from our side of the door and other two from the inside.

Princess Zelda is standing in the middle of the room with a long purple dress that rubs the marble floor. She walks to us with elegance.

Princess Zelda: Welcome ladies...- She stops herself when she looks at me, rage bright in her eyes, she analyses me from head to toe. It seems like an eternity when she looks at me like that, but it's actually a brief second.-...Um...- She turns her gaze back to the people.-...and gentleman. Today is the 5th day of our party, celebrating Hyrule's Hero, Link...- Everyone claps, but Link's expression is blank and dark.-...and a masquerade ball is today's theme. I hope you have fun, please go on.- She extends her left arm to the ballroom and everyone walks inside.

*Play the Video*

The place is decorated with fancy feathers and a big ice sculpture resembling Link. Food of all kinds surrounds Link's figure. Left side of the figure with fancy sweets, and right side with a buffet.

Tables are on the far sides of the room, to make space in the middle for the people that will dance. On the far end is a table with a pure gold Royal Family Crest. Link's table of course.

Zelda walks away and swiftly takes something from the table, a piece of (favorite cake flavor) cake, it has a small fork and on the top has a note which is written in a girl's fine font. 'For my Dearest Hero -Zelda'.

Y/N: There it is again... My heart is jumping and something is squeezing it with such force that pains me to the core...

Zelda: Here Link. The chefs made this cake just for you.

Link: (favorite cake flavor)! My favorite... But I can't accept it...

Zelda: Oh but they put a lot of effort in these.

Y/N: How come did she know about what Link thought?...

Link: Fine.

He takes the fork and cuts a small piece of the piece (/).-), he takes a small bite and smiles.

Link: This is delicious! Wow the chefs made a splendid job!- His cheerful voice makes me smile warmly.- Remind me to thank them!

Zelda: I will!- There... For a brief second was a dark and cold gleam in Zelda's left eye.

Link: Y/N, you should try it!- No, there is something, but I shouldn't him in front of Zelda.

Y/N: I just hope... Nothing happens to you...- I smile.- I think I'll pass.

Link: Oh what a shame...- He smiles and takes me hand.- Let's dance.

~Link's POV~

She takes my hand and my heart beats fast, her (e/c) eyes shine with enthusiasm (or so I hope it is).

*Time Skip*

We danced with different people and many kinds of songs.

A slow song is played by the orchestra.

Everyone has a couple and dance face to face, as close as possible, men holding women by the waist.

Link: Y/N, do you want to dance with me?- I extend my hand.

She nods and takes it without hesitating. Slowly we get to the pace of the music.

Link: You dance great.

Y/N: It's nothing. I was taught that by the Goddesses.- Everyone stops dancing and gathers around us to watch us, Zelda is giving us death glares, I can't help but give a quiet smirk.

Link: Well, Y/N. Would you mind if I held you closer?...- She blushes, but I'm not sure because of the dim light.

Y/N: Yes please...- I pull her into an embrace and we start dancing gracefully.

Link: I will tell her.

Everyone watches silently and unmoving.

Link: Y/N, I need to tell you something...

Y/N: Yes Link?...

Link: I...- Just as I'm about to tell her, a figure takes my attention, a dark one. My eyes widen.

My throat starts burning and my headaches like never in my life.

Link: Dark... Link...
