DTSY- Chapter One: Prophecy Fulfilled

"Yahoo, Navi! We have the sacred stone of water!" a small boy shouted as his little feet thundered against the ground.

"Link! Slow down I can't keep up with you!" A little blue light with wings shouted as she tried to keep up.

The boy; Link, huffed as he ran down the bridge at Zora's River. He leapt into the water below which produced a large splash. He grinned from ear to ear, avoiding octorocks as they shot rocks his way. He couldn't wait to show his friend all the stones he collected for the task she has placed upon him. Saving Hyrule.

Skeletal soldiers, Gerudo warriors, and huge pig humanoid monsters flooded the castle halls. Hylian knights fought to their last breaths, but their honor was for nothing but the land. The king lays dead on the throne room carpet.

I ran into my chambers as fast as my legs could carry me. Goddesses where is Impa?! I slammed the doors behind me, I immediately scrambled for the ocarina and threw it into a pouch. However, there was one more family treasure I must grab; the Goddess Harp. I grabbed the bag with the ocarina and fled down the halls. Thankfully the soldiers were keeping Ganondorf's monsters at bay.

I exited the halls and found my way outside towards one of the keeps. Mother would often spend her time in there. I entered the keep and bashed the locked box it lied in. Oh mother, forgive me I need this for Hyrule. My shaking hands slipped it into the bag. There's no time to marvel the beautiful gold it was forged in. I must find Impa!

"Hello little princess." A deep voice spoke.

My heart froze and my head turned to look behind me. The skeleton soldier cackled at me. His red eyes made me freeze from what I was doing.

"Could you perhaps, play a little song on that ocarina of yours for me? Lord Ganondorf would like to hear it too." He spoke with snark.

Ganondorf emerged behind him, "Correct, Stalfos. Maybe let me play a tune too?" he smirked as he approached me.

"Never!" I screamed.

I was trapped in a corner. Oh great Hylia, give me a miracle! I prayed deeply as tears rolled down my cheeks.

"Princess!" a familiar voice yelled from above.

I couldn't make out the dark figure. Suddenly it grabbed me and ran in between Ganondorf and the monsters. I opened my eyes and it I saw her snow white hair. Impa has saved me!

"Impa where were you!?" I yelled as I hugged her.

"No talk now, Zelda! We must head to the stables!" she said as she continued carrying me down the halls.

I closed my eyes tightly and gripped the bag. I didn't want to see all the death and destruction in my home. I pray for the remaining soldiers' safety. Through the halls and bodies of monsters and some of the castle staff we made our way to the door behind the castle which leads to the stable.

Safula, the Royal Family's horse whinnied in fear from all the noise and fire.

"Do you have the ocarina and the harp?" Impa asked as she put me on top of Safula.

"Yes." I confirmed.

With a nod she mounted Safula behind me, "Ya!" she yelled and Safula quickly galloped down the path.

It started to storm as rode past the buildings and the townsfolk. Goddesses they look so oblivious! They however, look absolutely stunned to see me outside castle halls. Castle Town Market was quiet as we rode by. I looked behind us and Ganondorf was storming down after us on his Gerudo stallion.

"Impa hurry!" I said.

She responded with a nod and sped up to the drawbridge, "Lower the bridge now!" she yelled at the guard nearby it.

He quickly obeyed and allowed us to exit, and who awaited in front of the bridge was none other than, Link.

Link.. Can you hear me? It's me, Zelda.

"Zelda!" Link yelled.

Link when you hold this ocarina in your hand..

"Link get out of the way!" Impa yelled

I won't be around anymore..

He ran out of the path and to the side, "Zelda!"

I wanted to wait for you, but I couldn't delay any longer..

"Link! Catch!" I shouted as I threw the ocarina.

At least I could leave you the ocarina and this melody..

It landed in the moat behind him and we were already past Lon Lon Ranch by the time Ganondorf stopped at the drawbridge. My face was wet with tears and rain. We approached the forest to the south.

"Did you want to grab him?" Impa asked.

"No, he must stay there and stop Ganondorf." I replied.

I sobbed into the back of Safula's neck. I don't know where we must go, but we must leave my home behind. Father, I wish you could've believed me!
