A Kink In Time - A Legend of Zelda FanFic (Ocarina of Time)

Chapter 36

back out of Zora's River, and finally into Hyrule Field.

I was dreading the approaching experience, the experience that had been in the dream that brought me here, but was hiding it, smiling.

That's when I realized... There would be no Ganondorf on a black horse. Only... Jordan. On a black horse, probably, but... My best friend would literally be there, and would hurt Link!!!! NOT COOL. AT ALL.

It made me want to cry!!!

I looked up, realizing I had been walking along with the boys the whole time, and that we were just passing Kakariako.

Well, damn. There was no turning back now.

Link walked on, happy to have accomplished what Zelda had requested. He was totally oblivious!!!

I watched as the lights near the drawbridge got darker, desperately wanting to turn around, to run, to grab Link and Robert and run!!! But my feet move onward, like I had lost control, like they were their own bodies.

And then, it was too late.

I watched in horror as Zelda and Sheik ran off on their white horse, watched as she threw the Ocarina of Time into the moat.

Slowly, I turned, and opened my eyes to find Jordan, purple haired, on a black horse with a purple mane, covered in silver and purple metallic armor.

I felt a tear run down my face, without me willing it too. I shook my head. No! This is wrong! Joey is in no way the equivalent of Ganondorf!!!

I tried, but I could stop the tears. I just couldn't handle my best friend being Ganon! It wasn't right!!! Link and Robert stared at me, and I turned red.

Time seemed to be going by much faster for me than it was for everyone else. After what had seemed like minutes, but apparently had only been about 20 seconds... I did something totally unpredictable. I had no idea why I was doing it, only that I simply had too.

"Joey?" I looked into her eyes, and she met mine with a startled look. "It's me. Betsy."
