I Give You My Life ~ Revali x Reader

Chapter Five

[Your POV]

"Had enough time to gawk yet?" Revali asked as he coasted in for a landing at the entrance of Zora Domain. I didn't respond. I, in fact, WAS gawking at the world around me. I hobbled off Revali's back, staring up at the Domain.

"It's so...amazing!" I said. "It looks so much cooler in person!"

"You've never been here?" Revali asked.

"N-No." I said. "I've only seen pictures." That technically wasn't a lie. As we began crossing the bridge leading into Zora Domain, a small Zora began running up to us.

"Ravioli!" He cried, hopping up and down. Something about the Zora seemed familiar. He shared a resemblance to Mipha, with the same red color and...

"Sidon!?" I cried. "W-Wait! Why are you so..." I looked him up and down. "...small?" He looked barely any bigger than a toddler. 

"Um, because he's a child." Revali said, raising an eyebrow. "And how do you know his name?"

"I-I..." I stumbled over my words. "I heard some Hylians talking about him on my way through Hyrule." I said. "He IS a prince, so, uh, it kinda makes sense people would be talking about him, right?"

"Ah. I guess that explains it. Speaking of names..." Revali said, looking down at Sidon. "My name is 'Revali'. Say 'Re-Va-Lee'."

"R...R..." Sidon started. "Ravioli!" He shouted with a grin. Revali just sighed. Sidon then walked over to me. "Your name?"

"O-Oh!" I said. I quickly bowed. "My name is (Y/N)." He let out a giggle and began swinging on my hand. Feeling the small Zora hang on my hand, I suddenly felt my heart flutter with joy. As I looked from Sidon to Revali, who was hiding a smile, it finally sunk in that I was in another world. Father and mother and Gabe could never reach me here. I would be able to stay here with the Champions and the others, and...I would be happy.

Sidon began pulling me across the bridge, Revali following after, acting all composed like he needs to be. Once we had entered, many Zora stopped and stared, either at Revali or me. "I don't come here often." Revali whispered to me. "The sight of me always blows them away." I just rolled my eyes and followed Sidon.

There were some Zora, mainly ones that looked like guards, that would stop and exchange small chit-chat with Revali, but no one dared to speak to me. Apparently it was apparent I wasn't a Hylian and I was obviously a new sight to behold.

I was starting to question the security here, since I hadn't been asked any sort of questions AND was being dragged around the Domain by the prince, until I realized the reason why. I was with Revali, who was the Rito Champion. Obviously if I was traveling with him, he must trust me. Now that I think about it, Revali could have ditched me anytime he had wanted to. He's a Champion, he could probably survive in the wild with a broken wing and not have to deal with some human who's never even been to Hyrule in person. But he didn't... Instead, he stayed with me. What was it he had said to me in the cave?

"You just seem...very familiar... I don't know how or why, but...when I look at you, I get a sense of deja vu."

Was that why? Because I seemed familiar? If that wasn't it, I don't know what was. I had zoned out, thinking about Revali, so I didn't realize I was up to my knees in water, my pajama pants soaked. "W-What?" I said in confusion as I looked down at the water. My eyes landed on the shrine in the water. I looked it up and down.

"Ne'ez Yohma!" Sidon said, pointing to the shrine cheerfully.

My eyes widened. "Right." I whispered, falling to my knees. Honestly, I don't how I haven't fallen to my knees more often. I was now waist high in the water as Sidon played in it around me, a huge grin on his face.
