Follower [Zelda]
Canon: Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Characters/Pairing: Link
Prompt: Time
Rating: G
Notes:
Time casts a shadow on his back.
It follows him as surely as his own thoughts; it lurks behind his footsteps, stealing his breath. It reminds him of the seven years he'd spent slumbering, away from those he loved, from those he has failed to save. And though he holds Time between his fingertips, he knows, he knows, he does not control time: time controls him. It reminds him with every swing of the Master Sword, each time he raises the ocarina to his lips; you were late, it hisses, keep up, Hero - I'll follow you, wherever you go.
