The Legend Of Zelda: Choosing my Path

Were it all begun

"You little rat! give me that food back!" Mr. Stewart, the local baker chased me with a frown on his face.

"Thank you Stewart!!" I said running as fast as i could, laughing between my gasps, another victorious day.

I put the bread loaf in my small bag, right next to the fresh Lon Lon milk

I ran towards an empty house, i climbed over it, jumped from roof to roof, until i finally reached the castle.

I ran towards my hidden path, climbing over a few walls, scraping my knee a few times.

"It feels like it's higher everyday...."

I said as i looked at the tallest tower in the castle.

I placed my jand on a small hole in the wall, taking out my worn out rope.

I made my way up the tower, climbing over the roof and taking a seat at my usual spot.

"I wonder if the prince realizes how lucky he is..." I said as i watches the scenery of Hyrule from the tower.

I took my food out and began gulping down the milk, the cool liquid made its way down my throat, making me sigh afterwards.

I was born in the Kokiri forest, home of the Great Deku Tree and its inhabitants, the Kokiri.

As i wrapped up my crumbs and wiped my mouth clean a small person riding a horse made its way out of the castle - this was my cue.

I quickly sneaked inside the room under the roof i was sitting on through the window, making my way to the familir room.

I sighed and quickly stretched, taking off my dusty green shirt, followed by my dark blue skirt and my black cloak.

I let my hair break free from it's braid, it falls all the way bellow my waist.

I made my way to the steamy room, the prince always takes a shower before leaving, so I use the water that's left.

I studied the bottles, looking for the light blue one - the one that smells like flowers.

I quickly submerged my clothes in, washing them with the expensive liquid.

I work the soap on my body, washing off my stress and

all the dirt stuck in my face, slowly washing away the tension in my neck.

I made use of my time and slowly make my way inside the tub, the water is still pretty hot, I stretch my hand and squirt some shampoo in my hair, slowly massaging my scalp, washing my dirty blonde hair, untangling the mess I made of it.

I washed off quickly, he can come back anytime, but I always took a chance and looked around his room.

I made my way to his bed, carefully lying down, trying not to move anything out of it's place.

I had searched around the room, if I stole something he will surely notice, and I only steal for my survival or if absolute necessary

Suddenly footsteps grew closer, my heart raced as I picked up my cloak, as I made my way to the window I heard the door bust open.

Shit...

I quickly slid under the bed, dragging my hair towards me, trying to stay quiet.

"Nonsense!" Someone said.

"FATHER! Please hear me out! That man is evil! I have foreseen it!"

"Stay here and think of What you're saying! The Gerudo have pledged peace with us! Don't make it so complicated."

The door was suddenly shut, leaving nothing but silence in the room.

I held my breath, a pair of feet were facing the door.

I heard a sigh, then the person entered the restroom.

I quickly slid out of the bed, as soon as I did, the restroom door was opened again.

I dropped to my knees, crouching behind the bed, hoping I wasn't noticed.

"Who are you?" A loud voice echoed in the room.

My eyes scanned the room, there was a wooden sword a few feet away from me.

"I know you're there, show yourself or I'll call the guard immediately."

I bit my lip, then slowly stood up from the spot.

Link's P.O.V

I held my sword towards the bed, a small head suddenly popped up slowly, bright indigo eyes staring at me.

"Who are you?" I said as I scanned the girl in front of me.

Her skin white as snow, her hair a rich blonde, reaching below her waist, her eyes big and long eyelashes, thin eyebrows and standing proud and tall.

"Are you pointing a sword towards a girl?"

She raised an eyebrow at me, I lowered my weapon a bit, she seemed unarmed and defenseless.

I glared at her perfect eyes for a bit, then I spoke up, "Why are you here? How did you get here?"

She shrugged, and slowly made her way towards me, not adverting her gaze from my sword.

"Hate to break it to you, but you have a poor guarding system in the castle, don't you think? " she have me a quick smirk.

I stared at her for a bit, then she suddenly rolled under me, kicking my back and making me fall on my face.

"Ugh..." I quickly stood up, raising my sword at her again, but this time she held my practice wooden sword.

"You're clearly going to lose, just give up already. I don't want to harm you." I took a look at her, she seemed concerned, she knew a wooden sword was no match for a real one.

"I can try."

With this, we began dueling, her moves quick but weak, I simply guarded myself, wrong for an opening.

"Hya!" she tried to strike me, but I barely blocked the attack, making her stumble backwards.

Suddenly I heard my me being called, outside the door was a knock, a maid came top clean.

As my attention was stolen, the girl quickly jumped off the window.

My was widened, suits she knew or was a huge drop?! Nobody will survive that....

Zelda's P.O.V

I clung to the tiles in the wall, quickly making my way outside of the castle, before the guards noticed me.

I ran as quick as my feet allowed my to, my small brown boots worn out, my hair moving as i ran towards the drawbridge, to exit the town and run back to my home, the Kokiri forest.

A few minutes after°°°°°°°

"Phew...." i jogged the rest of the way down, the drawbridge in sight.

I heard a horse gallop in the distance, so i scooted to the far corner of the sidewalk.

As walked, i heard the hoofs of the horse gallop faster, i glanced back, to reveal a sword slashing my way.

Fuck....!!!

A felt a sharp pain in my left arm, as I glanced to who it was, but i was swooped of the floor by the rider in the horse.

I closed my eyes, touched my arm.

I'm bleeding....

I opened my eyes to reveal the culprit.

What the....

It's.... the prince .....?!?!!?!

It cant be... where is he taking me....?!
