You are mine

Chapter 3
-------------

Link could feel his lung burning and his heart pounding as he urged Epona on with his knees. Sweat dripping into his eyes. “Just one more.” Link begged as he took aim. “NOW!” Link shouted as the arrow went whistling through the air and landed on the bull’s-eye. ‘Yes perfect score.’
Link smiled as he led Epona to the drinking hole. “You did great Epona. I guess we still got it girl.” Link said as he removed the saddle. He could still fell his heart pumping from the excitement of it all and a racing heart in the desert heat that was never a good thing. Removing his shirt he plunged himself headfirst in the water. Pulling himself out Link took a grateful breath of the hot desert air letting the cool water dip down and caress his heated body.

“Tee hee hee you’re looking pretty hot there Link”

Link felt his face heat up as he ducked behind Epona hoping that she would provide some protection. He cursed his blush as he look back at Harere.
The damn female was beautiful but vile. She had been his tormenter through out his younger years tossing him in mud and throwing stones at him. And when they had gotten older she constantly tried to seduce him with her womanly charms. “Hello sister.” Link said formally and bowed. ‘How do I get myself out of this?’

“Sister? I’m anything but your sister. Linky sweetheart” She said and smiled.

Link felt his insides crawl and try to escape his body. ‘Even they are afraid for her.’ Like though with disgust.

“Why so quite Linky?” Harere asked as she rapped her arms around his neck.

Link internally was cursing what ever god had allowed this situation while being them at the same time to unravel it. “I’m not quite sister, just tired.”

“Again with the sister? Linky you should see me as a woman. I am of age, and tonight you will be to.” She said and held him tighter. “Maybe tonight we can sneak away and I can teach you a new way of celebration.” She said as she held him tighter.

“His celebration tonight will be enough for our prince Harere.”

Harere jumped back as though she had been burned and stared wide eyed back at her leader. “Sister Nabooru.” She bowed.

“Harere I think your assistance is required in the kitchens. Please go help Amisi.”

“Yes sister Nabooru.” Harere bowed lower and hurried away.

“Thank you mother.” Link sighed in relief

“A mother is supposed to protect her pup, no matter what.” Nabooru said as she started to dry her son long hair with the shirt he had abandon.

“Well thank you from protecting me from the detectible piece of evil.” Link laugh as he put on the damp shirt back on.

“Why did you refuse her? She’s of age, beautiful and willing.”

“She beautiful and charming, sexy and willing, vicious and vile.” Link sighed as he brushed Epona. “We both might be of age but she is not the one I want.”

“Then who do you want my son.” Nabooru asked as she gently combed the horse’s short mane.”

“I don’t know.” Link said “I’m surrounded by woman all day long. I guess I just want something different.”

“Another man?” Nabooru asked.

“I don’t think so. But then again I don’t know. I guess I want my partner to me as though… as if… water. My partner must be my water. And we meet it has to feel as though … I don’t know it has to be shocking. That’s what I want mother.”

“I see.” Nabooru nodded ‘may the goddess grant you’re wish my pup.’ “It is getting late. You must go wash and prepare yourself for your coming of age celebration.”

“Yes Mother come Epona.” Link pulling out a gray ocarina and started playing. The happy horse playful followed.

Link Appalled in awe as he watched the twins Kakra and Zesiro dance with sword and fire and as a few of the other girls juggled and preformed acrobatics.
Link was amazed and touched by how far his sisters had gone for him. There was food as far as the eye could see and drinks of all kind. And even his favourite a very rare treat even in the castle town iced-cream.

“Is this what you wanted pup?” Nabooru asked as she sat on her collection of expensive silk pillows watching the festivities.

“All that and more mother.” Link smiled as feed another portion of iced-mint-cream to the babe in his arms.

“Your truly gifted with babes my son.”

Link laughed as a he watch other toddler plop down on his pillows. “Yes I love babies.”

“Would you like to have on day?”

Link looked at her with shining eyes. “Yes and many. Many beautiful pups to call my own.” Like laughed and cuddled the cooing babe in his arms.

“Then would you like to be in charge of the nursery?” she asked him. She watched as though mesmerised by the play of emotions in his eyes. They were so hopeful.

“Mother are you serious? I would love to.” Like said with passion

“Well you are allowed one wish tonight. Maybe it will come true.” Nabooru had talk to the elders about Link becoming in charge of the nursery. She knew her pup loved children but the elders had been dubious about it. Not wanting a man caring for their children. They denied her explaining that he was far too useful to them as an infiltrator. But she knew that he did not want to be an infiltrator. His heart was too soft. He did not enjoy the rush of power or the greed. He was a gentle soul, a soul of peace. He was many things a warrior, a medic, a caregiver even a magic weaver but he was not a thief.

Link smiled a hopeful smile. Maybe the gods will allow her son to have what he deserved to have.

An odd calling rang out through the crowd and every one paused to listen then suddenly every started callingf out in the same way as Link stood up proudly.

Nabooru stood up as well and stood in front of her son. “And now it is the time for the wish.” Nabooru said and lifted a beautiful crafted bow and arrow. “In our readings it states that your wish will be granted on your coming of age ceremony. As our readings say ‘Ye who have become of age. I grant you a wish. Send your wish threw the air on your mother love and I shall hear it.’ So it has been written so have all of are wishes have come true.” There was a loud cheer. “This bow was crafted by our goddess herself and the arrow by a mother’s love.” She gently turned to her son and handed him the bow. “May you find happiness with your wish.”

Link stood proudly as he took the bow from him mother and walked towards the desert dunes. Link took aim towards the sky and thought of asking to be able to care for the pups. That wouldn’t have to break in and take what wasn’t his.
But he paused it was what he wanted. But that wasn’t his true wish. Pulling back the arrow he closed his eyes and asked for what he had wanted the most. More then anything. ‘For every to be right.’ He let the arrow fly and sail into the night. He could swear he saw giant hands come form no where appeared and just captured his arrow.

Suddenly there was a wicked laughter and loud whooshing quickly approachingthe celebration.

“Link hide!” Nabooru hissed at her son. As she prepared to greet Kotake and Koume. The damned witches that had raised Ganondorf. “Great witches you humble me with your presences it’s an honor.”

“OH Kotake look it’s a celebration.” Koume chuckled gleeful as she jumped of her broom.

“What are you dogs waiting for?” Kotake growled. “Bring us food and ale.” She snapped send every one available scrambling.

Nabooru felt her stomach curl as she watched al the food that her sisters and worked hard on be stuff and gobbled and slurped as Kotake smash plates and insulted gourmet meal not letting anyone else have. And Koume dance clumsily. Kicking up her skinny legs and ruining the other girls dancing. Demand praises and demeaning the girls when she bumped into them claiming it was their fault.

“Great witch.” Nabooru said respectfully as she bowed down. Clenching her teeth as the ingrate burped in her face. “To what do we owe the pleasure of this visit?”

“Oh didn’t we tell you.” Katoke smirked as gravy dripped down her chin. “Ganondorf will be coming home soon.” Katoke said as she savagely rip apart another leg of chicken.

Nabooru felt a chill run up her spine. “When will he be arriving?”

“at sun rise.”
