Reflection in the Water - A Breath of the Wild Fanfiction

Chapter 54

   The boat stopped at the edge of the clear blue water. The scenery looked like paradise as there were palm trees everywhere with livable huts at every corner. The ground was all sand, looking like it could sink you in. The four of them got off of the boat, Sidon holding three bags as he offered to carry them once more.

   The four of them started to walk deeper into the village, admiring the scenery as it felt like they were truly on vacation. Little by little, the people started to notice their presence until one person perked up, seeing Sidon. "Look! It's the hero who saved us!"

   Now everyone started paying attention as they were drawing closer to the four. They were all aiming for Sidon with all smiles and admiration. Sidon smiled widely as he saw all of the villagers surrounding him. "Hello everyone! It's been quite a while, hasn't it?"

   "What is the great hero doing in our village? On vacation?"

   Sidon nodded happily. "Yes! I'm on vacation with my wife to be and a couple of friends!"

   The people turned towards the three and then towards Sidon. The innkeeper stepped in as she spoke up. "I shall have two huts prepared for you. I know that you and your fiancé would like a room alone."

   Sidon nodded once more. "Yes! That's perfect! Thank you so very much!"

   Kagami was slightly blushing hearing the conversation as Hayate linked arms with Ranmaru. "It looks like we're going to be roomies!"

   Ranmaru just blinked as he slightly smiled. "Yes... It sure looks like it..."

   After settling everything in their huts, the four of them ended up meeting at the edge of the water. Both Hayate and Ranmaru had changed into their swimming trunks. On the other hand, Kagami had changed into a two piece swimsuit, holding a bottle of sunscreen. "Alright boys, you need to put on sunscreen before you get in the water."

   Hayate put up a hand in refusal. "I'm good, mother. I'm half Zora and will turn into a Zora anyway in the water."

   Kagami drooped her eyelids as it looked like her eyes could stare into your soul. "But you're also half Hylian, so you could still get burned under the sun." She squeezed some sunscreen onto her hands as she started rubbing it on Hayate, making him shiver as it was cold. As she was done, she turned towards Ranmaru. "Do you want me to help you apply sunscreen?"

   Ranmaru shook his head. "I can do it myself, thank you." Kagami handed him the bottle as he started to apply the sunscreen onto himself.

   Sidon was right next to Kagami as he was staring down at her. "Kagami? Did you put on sunscreen as well?"

   Kagami nodded in response. "Yes. I've applied it inside of the hut before coming out."

   Sidon struck a pose while smiling. "Well then! Let's start swimming!" At that cue, all four of them stepped into the water, which was the perfect temperature, not too hot, not too cold.

   In an instant, Hayate had turned into his Zora self. He started floating on his back with his eyes closed. "This water feels so good..." Ranmaru was floating where only his head was showing, moving his body from underwater as he was relaxing in the same spot.

   Sidon gestured Kagami to get on his back as he was laying on his stomach. "Come on, Kagami. Let me guide you around these waters." Kagami swam towards Sidon, lifting herself up to get onto his back. She was now sitting on his back, almost like she was riding a horse.

   Hayate saw that as he turned from his back to his stomach, looking at Ranmaru. "Come on, Uncle Ranmaru." Knowing that he couldn't protest, Ranmaru swam over to Hayate as he lifted himself onto Zora Hayate's back.
