“Oh my god. It’s you!”

                All I can do is stare back. I can feel my face turning red. I knew that the secret was out. If Ganondorf didn’t know by now, then he will.        

                “Oh my god. I would have never guessed it. I mean if anyone should have been royalty, it should have been me” she said with conceit.

                “You know I really don’t like your attitude. Matter of fact, why do you always have to be a bitch towards me?” I say with anger.

                “Whoa! Okay calm down Mrs. Royalty. Just because you are the king’s daughter, doesn’t mean you have to let it get to your head” Malon says.

                I stand up and pound my hands on the table. “I haven’t let anything get to my head you selfish bitch! Is that your excuse? Why don’t you just admit that you’re just jealous”? Malon eyes got huge. Almost as if what I said offended her. Well it did blow me away to. I have no idea where that anger came from.

                “You know what, do what you want to do Princess!” Malon says emphasizing ‘princess’.               Before I could utter a word, she storms out of the library. I just shake my head. I glance back down and start to read Zelda’s journal again.

                Dear journal,

                It is almost my time to go. I don’t know how much more I can take. I will NOT bend at his will. When I left you last time, I told you how he was coming. Well he came. He forced me to tell him where the Triforce was. I couldn’t tell him. It would be wrong. So he beat me to a pulp. Smacking me in the face, beating my face in the ground. I can barely see as I write to you. I think I might last here another day or so. I hope whoever finds this journal, finds out who Ganon truly is. Not Ganondorf but Ganon. He is a brutal man! Who made me kill my own father! Oh no! He’s coming back. But I am ready. I-

                I shut the book immediately, from hearing the library doors open. I didn’t want anyone knowing I have Zelda’s person journal. I hid the book under my right leg. When I look up I see Ganondorf. He is staring me down.

                “I know” was all he said.

                My heart leapt out of my chest. “You know what?” I asked trying to sound like everything is okay.

                He didn’t answer the question yet, he simply walked up to where I was sitting. He walks behind me and puts his hands on the chair. He leans down to my ear and whispers. “I know who you are Princess Daphne”.

                I wanted to run so mad not knowing what he might do, but there was Zelda’s journal under my leg. “Princess?” I try to play off.

                “Don’t act like you don’t know” he said with his tone becoming stronger.
