Zelda sat at Link's bedside for two days. She was praying daily to the goddesses, but non had answered. At least, that whas what she thought. She was about to fall asleep again, when someone said her name. She looked up and saw Link looking at her. "You're awake!" Zelda said happy. "I'm sorry,", was the second thing that he said. "I am just happy that you are awake", Zelda said, "and somewhat okay".

Jumping to two days later and Link was walking around the castle grounds. Leon was put on the task to keep an eye on the knight. "You don't need follow me EVERYWHERE I go,", Link said. It had gotten him on his nerves. "You sound like Zelda when she was being followed around by you", Leon said. "And that was for good reasons", Link said. He walked a  bit faster, but Leon refused to leave. "And this is for a good reason as well! You looked dead when we found you! Imagine that Zelda had to live with the fact that you might had died, hadn't she sent us to find you", Leon said. "So what if I was? It's better than reliving the fucking calamity every single waking moment of my life", was Link's response. "I thought you were the wielder of the triforce of courage?" Leon said. "WELL I GUESS I AM NOT FUCKING WORTHY OF IT!" Link screamed and he walked off.

Zelda had hear the commotion and walked to the source of the sound. Leon was standing in the hallway. "I heard screaming. What is going on?" she asked. "I don't know what to do", Leon said. "I should never express my feelings, since I am a soldier.. But I am beyond terryfied", he continued. Zelda decided to try and talk to her knight. She knew where she could find him, since he was ordered to stay on castle grounds. She walked straight to the training field.

"Get OUT of my HEAD! You swerling SWINE!"

Those were the first word Zelda heard when she entered the training field. Link was again fighting a dummy. She started at him for a few minutes. Link finally stopped fighting and threw the sword away. He then looked up and saw Zelda standing at the entrance. "Zelda, I how long were you there?" He asked. "Long enough to tell you are clearly still at war", Zelda said. Link was at loss of words. He didn't know how much she knew and it made him uncomfortable. "Leon told me what happened, at least in his words", Zelda said. These words sent the champion into a panic. "How- how much do you know?" he managed to ask. "Enough to make me worry about you,", zelda said. This didn't help his anxiety. In fact it only made it worse unbeknownst to Zelda. Link looked around the field for a way out of this situation but he knew Zelda wouldn't let him go. He felt like he was back with the guardians eying his every movement ready to strike and kill. The natural sounds were driven out and replaced with the sound of the beeping that came from the guardians. It made the knight freeze in paralyzing fear.

Zelda was still standing in the same place when she noticed the change. "Link?" she asked with concerned and confusion.

Link heard a soft voice. He heard it saying his name, which set of another memory. It was like an ambush but now on his brain. Flashes of images raced trough his mind like a bad movie being replayed over and over again. Someone was yelling for help. At the same time he had the sensation of falling.  Then it was lights out.

Leon was still in the castle attending to his duties, when he heard a high pitched scream. He recognized the voice. It was Zelda. He dropped everything he had in his hands and rand to the source of the screams. It became louder, the more he ran to the  training fields. "Zelda!" he screamed. "Leon, help!" Zelda screamed back. He could here her fear, like she saw something horrible unfold that she had never seen. He ran to the bridge that had sight on the training ground. Zelda sat on the ground with an uncontrollably shaking Link half in her arm." Get help! I don't know what to do!" Zelda now yelled. It was not necessary as the healers had heard the screams for help.

Leon ran from the bridge to go to the fields. He might not know what was happening, but he new he had to do something. Even if it was only comforting the princess.

Zelda saw the healers come to her as she was struggling to hold her knight. The moment they wanted to do something, the shaking stopped and Link now lay limply in Zelda's arms.
Her arms felt sore, because of all the strong inconsistent movements. Her mind was racing with so many questions, it made her dizzy. "Zelda, are you okay?" Leon asked. His face was showing his concern. Not only for the princess, but for Link as well. The soldier hoped that this was never happening again.

A few hours went by. Link woke up to soft humming. He opened his eyes and turned his head to the source of it. It was non other than Zelda herself. He silently looked at her and took in every feature. She had her blue traveling outfit on. Her hair was pulled back in to a dot. Only then he noticed he was laying in a bed. He had no idea how he got here or what happened. The only thing he knew was the fact that he was tired as hell. Like he had been running from Hyrule field to Hateno village.

Zelda looked up at that moment and saw Link looking at her. "Oh my Goddes! You are awake! You scared me so bad", she said. She saw at the way her knight looked at her that he had no idea what she was talking about. How was she gonna explain this?
