Greeting at the Colossus by Sage of Light
Two days had passed and Aleno was only twelve miles away. Rather pleased with herself, she decided she deserved a break. She found the third shelter of the desert and slowly entered. The sun was still high above the vast desert. The sandstorm was picking up speed and becoming immensely worse. Aleno practically fell back onto the warm stone, and fell asleep quickly, unaware of the body climbing slowly down the wooden ladder.
Seya was unhappy to the sight she beheld. An empty shelter. Remains told a story that only a Gerudo could understand. Many people had been here, she could tell from the many trails of sand. Plus, the torches were still lit, which was an obvious clue someone had recently been there. Seya guessed the group was present at least two days ago. One thing didn’t understand that on the ladder, there was a trail of sand that didn’t touch the floor, like a person climbed down the ladder and climbed back up immediately. “Oh well,” she sighed as she exited the chamber. Link hid behind a large boulder as he watched Seya emerge from the tiny shelter. Curiously, he followed her as she raced off yet again. “Goddesses she’s fast!” he huffed as he ran after her.
Edward Prince smirked at the Gerudo advisor. “Dream sweetly,” he hissed. He removed himself from the shelter and mounted his black horse, determined to reach the desert Colossus before her. The group of soldiers followed their master and galloped quickly towards the massive statue rising up from the sea of sand. Aleno sat up, sweating, knowing an evil presence had just entered the room. “No, it… it couldn’t have been,”Aleno sighed, still searching the room. She decided to rest when she reached her leader, rather than risk anything happening.
Seya ran as fast as a horse through the sandy atmosphere determined to find Aleno. Quickly, she came upon the third and last desert shelter. Without thinking she rushed inside, tripping over a small clump of sand in front of the entrance. She fell headfirst into the small room below, and fell unconscious. Link followed her as fast as he could through the entrance, just in time to watch her fall. He climbed down after her, and checked for a pulse. “Ah, good. She’s only been knocked out,” he said, relieved. He pulled out a small pouch of water and squirted a bit on Seya’s face. She coughed up a small amount of blood and stared into the face of the kind person who had helped her. “L Link?” she said, coughing slightly. “I’m glad to see you’re awake. You fell really hard,” he said smiling brilliantly. “Oww! My butt really stings,” Seya moaned. “I’m not surprised. Do you have anything to change into? Your pants have a big tear in them near the knee,” he stated. “What do you care?” she snapped, becoming rather annoyed, again… “Hey! Where are you going?” Link shouted as Seya prepared to leave the shelter. “I’m really close now, I think I can catch up with Aleno,” she replied, climbing up the ladder. “Well this time I am going to come with you, you need my help!” Link boasted as he followed her out. “Fine, just don’t get in my way,” she said.
Aleno ran so fast she seemed to be flying. She could see the Colossus clearly now, and the deadly desert wind had begun to die down. It hadn’t taken her that long to reach her destination, only three days and a few hours. “Bout an hour more and I’ll be there!” Aleno thought happily. An hour had passed and finally, she was there. But her happiness was stolen away. She spotted Edward Prince and his soldiers, killing her master! “You, you …” Aleno couldn’t find the right words. “Ahh, m’lady,” the Prince mocked, “just in time to see your beloved master fall.” Aleno was speechless as she watched them stab a sword right through her master’s gut. She starred angrily at the Prince. He laughed triumphantly at the shocked Gerudo. “Now it is your turn m’lady,” he hissed.
“Aleno!” Seya shouted spotting her friend near the entrance to the desert Colossus. She was rather relieved to see Aleno safe. “Seya?” Aleno whispered. “No, they’ll, they’ll hurt her!” Aleno thought anxiously. “Aleno, are you alright?” Seya asked nervously as she approached her friend. Seya began to notice those surrounding her. “Aleno, are they soldiers of Ganondorf?” she questioned, feeling sick. “Yes Seya, they are,” Aleno whispered in response, “Run Seya. Run.” The soldiers fired arrows at Aleno and her body crumpled to the floor. They laughed victoriously, but Seya had already begun to run. “Seya what’s?” “Run!” she shouted cutting Link off. “Again?” he moaned racing after her. They were unaware of the man following them, who was none other than Edward Prince.
