A Super Smashing New Year's

Explanations

          ~Zelda's P.O.V.~

It was still cold and snowing outside, but it was warm when I walked in.

"Hello?" I asked into the open air. No response. My footsteps trailed down a long, orange and green corridor.

It was warmer than I thought, and I was regaining feeling in my hands and feet. I kept walking.

"Zelda"

What the hell?!

I remained calm, even though that voice wasn't familiar to me. "Hello?" I asked once again. Though no answer, I kept going.

"Hurry on."

I did as the voice told me. Something about it wanted me to obey. My pace quickened as I was now in a light jog. I undid the knot holding my cloak and let it fall behind me, discarding it.

"To the end."

Whatever that means. To the end of what?

...Wait a second.

"Zelda... I need to speak with you."

Don't tell me.

The voice sounded more and more similar to that of someone I knew in a matter of a few steps.

I got down to where the corridor stopped. A long, round room was in front of me. And for what I saw was, well...

"LINK!" I exclaimed and ran over to him. His hands were chained to hefty blocks of cinder on either side of him. An expression of nothing was painted on his face.

"I need to talk with you Zelda." He spoke very nonchalantly.

"Sure but first let's get you out of-" I stood up and was about to summon a knight when he cut me off.

"Don't do it. Let me explain." I sat down.

"How did you end up here?"

"Remember what happened last night? When they were in the closet?"

"How could I forget? You ran out and I've been looking for you ever since."

"Yeah, well first I was just angry at myself. I lashed out at Dark Pit all because I simply wanted to protect Pit. When I realized what I had done at first I was filled with vengeance and swore I was gunna get back at Dark Pit. He made me hurt the one friend I could call a brother. Anyway, the alcohol wore off and my senses returned. I needed to just get away from everyone and think. So I came here."

"So why did you chain yourself up?"

"Because if something did happen I didn't wanna wreck more havoc throughout the mansion if I couldn't control myself."

"Link, that's a bit extreme to go so far as to lock yourself up."

"I did it for the better of everyone. I was just confused."

I stood up. I definitely gotta hand it to him. He has everyone's best interests at heart. And he's more than caring of everyone.

"Let's get you outta here."

"But what if-"

"Shhh... I got your back Link." I summoned my knight and he ripped through the chains as though they were made of paper. Link stood up and looked at me.

"Thanks, Zelda." He ran up and hugged me. I returned the action with a kiss on his lips.

"Just come to me if you have any problems." I smiled.
