Chapter six
A shrill scream came from the castle suddenly a young twili burst from the castle doors into the town where murmurs and whispers died down. "The King! He's hes - DEAD!" The streets went quiet for a moment and soon the terrified murmers started up again along with shreaks and sobs from some. People ran to spread the news and all af twilight seemed more gloomy that it usually was. Suddenly one of the people pointed out the ovbious. "wait! if teh kings dead, who will lead us? we need a new king or queen this means!"
Well this was the last thing on Midnas mind- infact she didn't even hear it she was to wound up in her thoughts... She remembered when she met the king as a child- he was so kind to her, even would pick a flower and give it to her every so often. She would always see him high up in the kingdom looking out his window or on a balcony with a few gaurds behind him. I can't believe it... 40 long years he guided us and now he's gone... He helped unlike some ruling kings and queens before him who lead us from bad to worse...he was different and of course now he's gone... She was staring at her feet the whole time she was thinking.
Wait.. She looked up, Zant was standing alittle ahead of her. Nows his chance! he can...he can lead, as king...he can prove himself- although he already has...
"Ahem.." A twili was standing on the kingdom balcony where the usual announcments were made. "I know we are all devistated for this loss, but it is a rule- the council must choose the candadates for the election." His face was withered yet his eyes made him seem so much younger than he was, twili don't age the same way humans do, wrinkles don't appear easily...
The man started to call out a list of names he was reading off a slip of paper. Midna was happy to hear Zant's name called but once 3 names were called- with only one position open she was shocked to hear her name leave the mans lips.
Me? why me?But Zants on atleast.. All four candidates stepped forward from the crowd. Midna searched for Zants hand and when she found it, gripped it tightly.
"We did it Zant"
"Ya...We did didn't we?..."
