I Give You My Life ~ Revali x Reader

Chapter Forty-Two

[Your POV]

"MIPHA!" I screamed as the Waterblight Ganon brought its long spear down on Mipha. But she was able to dodge. The entire library shook. Books fell off the shelves and tables were knocked over. I looked around at the others. The Waterblight Ganon only seemed to be going after Mipha. It wasn't supposed to be here! Not in the library! It's supposed to be in a dungeon! Ganon must've sent them! More particles began forming in the air, creating another one! I looked up to see it form, clawing at Daruk. Fireblight Ganon! "DARUK!"

"(Y/N), stand back!" Revali said, grabbing my shoulder, pulling me back. The Waterblight Ganon and the Fireblight Ganon separated us. Mipha and Daruk were on one side of the library while Urbosa, Link, Revali, and I were on the other side.

"But we have to protect them!" I cried, holding up my claymore. The Waterblight Ganon and the Fireblight Ganon looked at each other and held their weapons against each other. The spear and the sword. Together, steam began filling the room.

"I-Is it getting hot, or what?" Revali asked, itching his feathers.

"Mipha! Daruk! You have to kill them! The eye! Look for the eye!" I screamed, hoping they could hear me. The steam was getting thicker and hotter to the point where I couldn't even see the Blight Ganons. Urbosa, Link, Revali, and I formed a circle, facing outwards. "Mipha! Daruk!"

"(Y/N), we need to find Ganon!" Urbosa said. "Mipha and Daruk can take care of themselves!"

"But we have to help them!" I said.

"Have faith in them, (Y/N)!" Urbosa said.

"I do! But I just...I just can't lose them! I can't lose any of you!" I said, crying.

"(Y/N), none of us are going to lose." Revali said. "We will win! We will beat Ganon! We will save everyone!" Just then, a huge spear pierced the steam, making its way towards me. "(Y/N)!" I stumbled and the spear smacked my side, sending me flying across the library, slamming me into a bookshelf.

"(Y/N)!" Everyone cried in unison. I gripped the monumental bookcase, trying not to fall. I was still holding my claymore in one hand while the other tightened against the bookshelves.

"STAND BACK! EVERYONE, FIND SOMEWHERE TO SHIELD YOURSELF IN FIVE SECONDS!" Urbosa yelled. My eyes widened and I crawled inside an empty bookshelf. Revali and Link ran back through the hole in the wall, hiding. I'm not sure what Mipha and Daruk were doing, but I did know what was about to happen. I crawled as far into the bookshelf as I could. I wish I could have witnessed it, but I probably would've been paralyzed if I did. A green light illuminated the room, followed by the sound of thunder. Once everything went silent, I crawled out of the bookshelf. The steam was gone and the Waterblight Ganon and Fireblight Ganon were freaking out, having spasms on the floor. Daruk and Mipha appeared from behind a thick bookshelf. Link and Revali ran back into the room. Revali immediately flew towards me, helping me off the tall bookcase.

"(Y/N), are you okay?" Revali asked when I touched the ground.

"Y-Yeah." I said.

"Your hair's a bit staticky." Revali said, licking his feathery hand, smoothing my hair back down against my head, making me blush. But now's not the time for cute interactions and blushing!

"Thank you, Urbosa!" Mipha cried, hugging her. "I think it'll be easier to take them now that you've used Urbosa's Fury."

"Do you think you'll be able to?" Link asked, taking Mipha's hands in his.

"Yes. I feel like...I need to fight it." Mipha said.

"Yeah, me too." Daruk said. "Like it's what I'm supposed to do. You guys need to go up ahead and find Ganon and kill him. We'll stay here and destroy these things, little guy." Daruk ruffled all our hair, giving Revali a noogie. "We'll see you soon."

"Yeah. See you guys soon..." I said. As we began leaving the library, I looked back at Mipha. She looked nervous, but determined. When we made eye contact, I remembered something. Link. I gestured to him. Mipha seemed hesitant, but I kept gesturing to him. Finally she shook her head and ran up to us.

"Link!" Mipha cried, making us stop. "Link, I need to tell you something!" Tell him, Mipha! Tell him how you feel! I don't know if we're gonna get out of here, so you need to tell him now! "Link!" She jumped into his arms and he caught her almost effortlessly. I noticed his face turn bright red as she placed her hand on his cheek. Her lips clashed into his. Revali and Daruk's eyes widened.

"Finally." Urbosa said, patting me on the back. Mipha pulled away, leaving Link a blushing mess.

"Do I get a kiss?" Revali asked, turning to me.

"Of course." I said, kissing his beak.

"Mipha..." Link muttered. She placed a finger on his lips.

"Go and defeat Ganon, my knight." She said, kissing his cheek. She walked up to me, placing a hand on my back. I didn't even realize how badly damaged it probably was! She healed it and ran back to Daruk. "Now go! Kill Ganon!" Mipha... She may be small, but she truly is amazing...

Link moved a painting, revealing a hidden passageway. "Wow!" I said. "How'd you know about this?"

"In the few times where Zelda gets a break, she likes to take me on trips around the castle." Link said. "I hope the king doesn't mind. I'll go first, then (Y/N), then Revali, then Urbosa at the back." Link crawled through the small space with each of us falling in place. It didn't take too long for us to come to a hidden room. It was a spacious room. "The rest of the tunnel is on the other side of the room. That tunnel behind that painting should lead straight to the sanctum. Or as some people call it, the throne room." As we began crossing the room, Urbosa froze, stopping in the middle of the room. The particles...the purple swirls forming a much smaller version of the rest of the Blight Ganons. The crackle of thunder filled the room as it revealed itself. Thunderblight Ganon. Another form appeared. Windblight Ganon.

Revali threw a wing in front of me, protecting me. Before Urbosa could reach for her sword, the Thunderblight Ganon batted her side, slammed her to the ground. "Don't you dare hurt Urbosa!" I shrieked. But Urbosa was back up in no time, sword out. It started its spin attack, flying towards Link, Revali, and I. But Urbosa stopped it, jumping in front of us, their swords clashing with a loud ring. The Windblight Ganon hovered above us, staring down at Revali. Revali... As Revali was about to step forward to fight it, Link stopped him.

"I'll kill it." Link said, turning to Revali and I.

"This is not the time to one-up me, Link!" Revali said, trying to push him aside.

"No, you need to stay with (Y/N)." Link said. "They need you." Revali looked back at me. "I'll kill that thing. (Y/N), you need...to take this. I'll trade you." Link held out the Master Sword to me.

"What!? Are you insane!?" Revali cried, pulling Link away from me. "This could kill them!"

"To hold the Master Sword, you must be strong enough to carry the weight of multiple lives. I believe (Y/N) doesn't need all those hearts...because theirs is big enough as it is." Link said, holding it out to me.

"Link..." I muttered, looking down at the sword.

"That was cheesy as hell, and you know it." Revali said through gritted teeth. I took a deep breath and reached for the hilt of the Master Sword. Revali didn't stop me, but he looked ready to intervene. I gripped the hilt and Link took my claymore.

"AGH!" I cried, both my hands gripping the hilt. The sword glowed bright blue as I held it above my head.

"It's hurting them!" Revali yelled.

"Just wait a minute, Revali!" Link yelled back. "Have faith in them!" Revali at me like he was about to burst into tears. I took deep breaths through gritted teeth, squeezing the hilt of the sword. The sword stopped glowing and I exhaled so hard I almost fell over. Revali panicked, holding me by the shoulders. "All right, you guys need to leave now." Link held the claymore and ran for Windblight Ganon. Revali and I hurried to the painting, tossing it aside. Revali helped me crawl inside, coming in after me. The sounds of fighting and metal against metal began to fade in the distance as we hurried through the tunnel. Just...Revali and I...

Our group had been split. Revali...the love of my life...I will protect you. No matter the costs.
