Reflection in the Water - A Breath of the Wild Fanfiction

Chapter 5

   Kagami received a bow and arrow from the shop Sidon mentioned. She even received ice arrows so she could freeze her prey. As she was walking out of the shop, she saw the back of a beautiful statue that Zora children were running around at. She walked towards the front of the statue, seeing that it was a female Zora, radiating with beauty. The more she thought about it, she figured it is Sidon's sister. She clutched her hand towards her chest, empathizing how it feels to lose a sibling. Taking one last look before her hunt, she headed towards the exit of the domain.

Outside of the domain were full of trees and grass, the total opposite of the domain that was full of water. Kagami spotted a boar that was roaming around aimlessly. It looked like the perfect food she could enjoy if she succeeded.

Kagami climbed a tree that was nearby, slowly and quietly. She spotted a couple of apples above her head, and quickly grabbed them. Back to the focus of the boar, she took out an ice arrow and stretched her bow, readying her aim to shoot. With one eye closed, she released the arrow, making the boar freeze in place. Now it was her chance to strike.

Kagami jumped from the tree, and took out the sword she found earlier, striking the frozen boar, instantly killing it. Kagami received quite a few pieces of meat for her to enjoy and save. She even found mushrooms nearby that could make the meat taste better when she cooks it. Kagami stuffed her sack with the new food, and began searching for more.

From a distance, Kagami heard the sound of a horse. Interested in wanting to tame a horse, she quietly tiptoed and hid behind a tree. She peered from behind a tree, seeing a dark brown horse with a black mane. It was the most beautiful horse Kagami has ever seen.

Once the horse turned its back on her, Kagami started to tiptoe quietly so she could jump on its back when she's close enough. The horse was eating grass, seeming like it didn't have a care in the world. Kagami was right behind, waiting for the perfect moment to jump on the horse's back, making a jump for it.

The horse was galloping out of control while Kagami was holding onto for dear life. "Whoa boy! Easy boy! I'm not here to hurt you!" She was stroking its mane while it was still spazzing out of control. Shushing the horse in a calm manner, the horse started to calm down, not wanting Kagami to get off its back anymore. She was still stroking its mane to make sure it was completely calm. "Good boy. It's alright. I'm your friend, not foe." Effortlessly jumping off the horse's back, she leaped in front of it, petting the horse's bridge of its nose. She started humming so that the horse could relax around her. Kagami took out an apple, feeding it to the horse. "We're companions now. So I shall give you a name." She thought to herself for a moment, a name coming to her mind. "How does Kaze sound?" The horse gave an approving neigh noise, indicating that he liked the name. "I think I know where to put you in your new home."

Kagami was riding Kaze in the long entrance of the domain. Some of the Zora people were looking with surprised faces, wondering why there was a horse here. Sidon quickly came over, looking at Kagami almost eye leveled. "Wow Kagami! You found yourself a horse!"

Kagami smiled and petted Kaze's mane. "I found him when I was hunting. I was going to take him towards the east. I know that he would feel more at home over there than in this area."

"That's a good idea! What kind of food did you find on your hunt?" Sidon was eager to see what she has found.

Kagami looked through her satchel. "I have boar meat, Hylian mushrooms, and an apple since I feed one to Kaze."

"Kaze? Is that the horse's name?"

"That's correct." Kaze began making frustrated noises. "It looks like he wants to go in a grassy area. I'll be back later, I'm going to spend more time with Kaze."
