Part 2: The girl of my dreams

-Please!!! Stop it! Don't hurt me anymore!- was all he heard, in the black darkness the covered his eyes and his body. Someone needed to be helped. Someone was being hurt, not light hurt a deep hurt. The cry was real, but who was she calling out to. Who was hurting her?

-Shut you girl and get out of might sight!- a deeper man voice screamed threw out the black night. Again he looked around in desperation to find the person who was screaming. She was crying now, why was the girl so clear to his vision in this dark room but the man was faded into the background. He could not make him out. Only his voice he could only hear his voice.

-I did nothing to you! why are you hurting me?- the girl cried as she was now backed up into a corner. She was trapped, he was going to hit her again. And then it happened it was as if his hand was made of swords, because as his hand met in contact with the girls face, blood splashed all over the place. If he had not know better he could have sworn he had cut the girls head off.

But she was still crying, still sobbing and now she was ducked down and huddled in the corner. blood seeping out of her fresh cut, like a flowing river of marron water. The man then disappeared from sight though it was hard to tell sence he could hardly see the man any ways.

-I can't take it any more...I can't take it any more....- the girl said to herself over and over again. It chilled him deep down to his bones. How could someone hurt her like this? It appeared she had more then just the cut on her face. She had two Band-Aid's around one of her legs and parts of her dress were stained red, where he guessed she had more cuts.

Tenameru slowly woke up from another weird dream. He rubbed his head softly and gently. It felt like he had just been hit by a stone brick, then ran over by a few horses. Almost every night for the past few weeks had been filled with a girl being beaten and hurt. He did not know who the girl was nor had he ever seen her before. But it felt like he knew her all his life.

But when ever he saw her in his dreams he felt sorry for her. He just wanted to hug her and comfort her in his dream. But that never could happen. It was like he was on one side of an invisible wall and she was on the other, no way to get to her, no way to protect her from another blow. But it was impossible. And he was always scared for the girl, that one day the next time he raised his hand to her it would be the last blow, the one that killed her.

Tenameru just shuddered at the though that what he was seeing in his dreams was really harping. What if there was someone out there calling out to him for help. But why him? And if she could call out to him she sure the hell could hurt the person back who was hurting her.

When the dreams first started to happen, he really paid no mind to them, he just though they were dreams. But she kept coming back to him in more pain the last dream. Somewhere in his heart told him that this girl was real and when was witnessing what was really going on. So every night when we went walking around he keep a sharp eye out for the girl in his dreams, knowing that she might be out there and that he could help.

It sounded Crazy, but what made him believe the girl was real, was a while ago when he was ten, Taff the Oracal of healing told him that he would find a girl who needed his help, more then anything in the world. That was Tenameru's biggest inspiration to have faith in this girl whom he knew nothing about.

Tenameru but his feet over the side of the bed, he had to get ready to head out. Not really knowing where to go or what to see, he figured he might as well try and find a night job. or maybe even find that girl. But right now he needed some money and a job would be the first thing he needed to get. Then he could chase after his dreams.

"Good Night Tenameru," Sara Mamore smiled as she pushed open the door to his room and he smiled up at her. Sara Mamore was the youngest sister of Liza Mamore, she and her mother owned a local Inn. Sara knew Tenameru, not to well, but he stayed at their Inn a lot. Lots of people come and go at their Inn But Sara remember Tenameru more then the others. Because he was the only one who came to their inn to sleep all threw the day then go wonder around at night. Sara could never do that, she was to scared of the dark.

"Oh shut up," Tenameru laughed and so did Sara. Sara like to tease him about his obsession for wondering around in the dark. Manly because did not know he was a Night Shika. And she never really asked about it either.

"So where are you off tonight? To meet your little vampire friends?" Sara said as she walked over to Tenameru and handed him a glass of water. Tenameru then made a sort of hissing nose trying to imitate a vampire. He was nothing like a vampire, he did not run around grabbing pretty girls and biting on their necks and then sucking their blood. That was really the last thing he ever wanted to do.

"No, going to look for a job," Tenameru said and Sara then handed him a hairbrush. Tenameru laughed again lightly as he took the brush and started to brush his long blue hair. Sara pulled over a chair next to the bed and sat down. She watched Tenameru brush his hair and she noticed that something was bugging him. She knew for a face that something was bugging him because just the way he was looking at the wall on the opposite side of the room and how he was brushing his hair. His mid seamed to be wondering else where besides this room.

"A job eh? not many people have night jobs. Hey you might be lucky, I heard they are looking for help at the Tealmentae's place, it's a night job," Sara said as Tenameru handed her back the brush. He kind of snapped back into the real world and no off somewhere else.

"I thought you hated the Tealmentaes?" Tenameru said and she frowend. Tenameru got up from his sitting spot on the bed and walked over to the dresser that stood alone in a corner. As he walked top the corner of the room the image of the girl appeared in his mind again. She was standing up now in the corner where he had last seen her in his dream. He saw her face so clearly now, all her face's features, her hair. how her bangs were unevenly cut. and the rest of her hair was pulled back into pigtails. if most of her face was not covered in bad-aids, she would have been extremely beautiful.

"I do hate them, all of the but Alex she's cool, I heard there's one daughter there that they never let out side only to work on their farm thingy they own. I heard he looks like a monster and they have to hide her away and beat her every now and then to keep her under control. But I don't know how true that is, I mean I've never see her," Sara said and Tenameru lost the image of the girl and looked back at Sara. Sara's words went into his head and stuck to his brain, was she...describing the girl in his dream? But the girl in his dream was not a monster.

"I might check it out," Tenameru said as he picked his hair tie up off the dresser and started to braid his hair. Sara laughed as she put the chair back where she got it from and patted Tenameru's shoulder.

"A vampire and a monster working together, how nice..."

"Oh get out!" Tenameru laughed as he shoved Sara out of his room gently but effectivly. He then shut the door with a clack and leaned against it. His legs gave away so slowly and gently, his back slid on the wall soon he stooped as he came to a complete stop. What was coming over him.

Then something occurred to him, the girl in his dream must be living in Hyrule, where he was right now, in Hyrule. The dreams were weak and short at first but as he got closer and closer the dreams became more realistic, more like he was really there. He had to be close to her, he just went over in the corner and it was as if she was right in front of him, wanting to reach out, wanting to grab him.

Tenameru looked at his hands, was that why he was here? Had he been drawn to her with out knowing what was going on what was really happaning? Then Sara's descriptions of the Tealmentaes. When he said the last name of that family thats when the girl appeared to him in the corner. This was getting a little weird, something Tenameru never though could happen, but it was.

With this thoughts a pictures in his head. With the words of Sara and the girl screaming in his ears. He jumped to his feet. With out really thinking he grabbed all his things from his room and left it with out another look. She was here, she was, and she needed him. He slipped his shoes on as he jogged out the door almost crashing into Sara again. She looked like she was ready for bed. Sara watched as Tenameru ran threw the hall ways and down the stairs. He must really want the job.

The night air was a cool feeling as he left the Inn and into the black of night. To him it felt like dawn to another person. Tenameru then came to a stop as he reached the dirt road. He had no idea where he was going, he had not even asked Sara were to head from the inn. But there was no time to run back and ask her a million questions.

He then did something other people would call him crazy for. Something not everyone should do. He closed his eyes and started running. Seeing would only make him guess or second guess what he was doing. Seeing was one of the most deadliest tool a person had. Seeing things was what caused people to kill one another, to hurt one another, seeing was a tool for distraction.

What Tenameru was going on was the sence of the girl. If he was really spouse to find her and save her, he would be guided to her with out his eyes. For his eyes were shut when he saw her. As he ran threw the night on the dirt path that he was not even sure he was on any more, the air got hotter like it normally did when people were running.

His heart started hammering against his chest, like there was some kind of time bomb going off every second. His hair was blowing gently back into the wind he was creating by running. He could not have explained this feeling to anyone, the feeling he had running along with his eyes closed being guided by something that he did not even know, was really out there.

What seamed like endless hours running around with his eyes closed was merly only around five minutes. When Tenameru came to a stop his eyes slowly started to opened. Like waking up from one of his dreams, a weird sensational feeling swept over his body, letting him come back to the real world, the world were he belonged.

Tenameru was shocked and stunned when his vision came back to him and he saw where he was standing. There was a sign not to far a head of him that read `Help Wanted, 100 rupees per night'. he was standing right in front of the Tealmentaes house. Though the house was more in the distance, but he saw the lights in the windows. He took another look at the sign, under the number `100' was the number `50' crossed out. The sign looked moldy and some what broken. Like they had been trying to get some help for more then a year now.

He did not have to think, he did not have to see or feel. His legs started working on their own and he started heading towards the house. The dirt path turned into a path made of rocks, and his feet made a different sort of music as they clamped down on the rocks. But what he was approaching was nothing musical, nothing beautiful. He was about to reach, the true meaning of the word `hell'.

As he got closer and closer to the house he heard what appeared to be peoples voices. They simply could not be people talking, because he was much to far away to hear them talking. So that left one thing, they were screaming. Or someone was screaming, maybe it was more then one person, he still could not really tell.

Each step he took, every breath he took in, the screaming got louder and louder, what ever was going on in that house was pretty bad. Never in Tenameru's life had he heard such harsh words, such a tone of voice, a scream that appeared then died away every other sentences. Tenameru's breathing got deeper and if he had not almost tripped over the first step to get to the front door. He might have ran right into the nicely carved wooden door.

Tenameru shook his head as there was another scream, was this a butcher shop or was it a house owned by some farmers. It was really to hard to tell standing out side the front door like he was. Tenameru was about to turn the handle when he noticed the door was already partly opened. More or less it seamed like they wanted to let the whole world know there was a war going on in this house. Tenameru pushed the door opened some more as he finally got into the conversation that was going on.

"You worthless piece of CRAP! To think all these years I have be raising your worthiness ass! If you ever talk back to me again your going to live to regret it! YOU HEAR ME!" A man screamed but it sounded more like a roar of a dragon. The voice shot threw Teenager like a arrow would. The house seamed to shake as the man scream, to who or what the man was yelling at, Tenameru could not see, for whatever it was, was behind a wall. He got half a view of the man.

He was really tall and had a big figure. Strong looking arms and strike blond hair. He had on a deep blue tank top that showed off his chest hair. He had a beard growing on his face and narrow evil looking eyes. But behind him was a woman who was scarier looking then he was. She was a really light pale color with really bright blue eyes. Her hair was a faded blond and she was thin and bonny.

"Yes...." There was another voice, it was soft and fearful, like a mouse trapped by a really over weight cat. Like a person who lost a loved one or a friend. The yes was the saddest, most scared tone to ever reach Tenameru's ears.

"DO YOU HEAR ME GIRL!" The Man yelled as he disappeared behind the wall, Tenameru could not see what he was about to do or what he was doing. But a suden gut feeling told Tenameru he should jump in, but he stood still, this was no his house and barging in would do no good.

"YES I HEAR YOU!" The girl screamed, a pierce sharp scream. That was mixed with tears and sobbing. Tenameru wanted to run away from this mess and mixed emotions. What right did he have here anyway? He had none, but that was good enough to make him stay.

"Stop this already!" There was another girl voice, it was not the scary woman behind the man, but it was a young voice. One with a mix of courage and strength to stand up to the big man. "She gets the point and I'm sick of this yelling every night! can we please for one night forget she's not one of our family and just respect her! I wont let you harm her any more-"

"Tonight girl, your lucky my baby Alex steeped in, now get outside were you belong you rat! You still have twenty minutes left of work! GO NOW!" The Man barked and the scary woman finally saw Tenameru standing in the door way. She tried to put on a smile as she started walking towards him.

"Joe, Alex thats clearly enough, we have...an uninvited guest," The woman said with a fake smile and a fake happy tone in her voice as she walked her way over to Tenameru. Then the big man and one of the girls walked out from behind the wall. The girl who stood next to the man was short with a deep golden blond hair and blue-green eyes. She was in a good condition so she must have been the one who jumped in the middle of the fight.

"What do you want here boy we matters to take care of," Joe the big man said then crossed his arms. Tenameru shut his eyes then quickly opened them, seeing these people in action was a bunch of people he did not want to work for or even see...

"I saw the sign out side in front of your house, your looking for some help. I though I might take the job," Tenameru said going against everything he wanted and was really looking for. But the feeling for being here was strong.

"Oh!" The woman cried in joy as she ran over and took Tenameru with one of her bonny arms and shook it. "Joe! Finally! someone to come help on the farm! The night shifts."

"Thats great! Boy whats your name and how soon can you start?" Joe asked as he walked over and took Tenameru's other hand and shook it. He felt extremely odd, one of his hands felt like it was touching the dead and the other one felt like it was in the dead center of an earth quake.

"My names Tenameru, I can start...tonight, what is it that you want me to do?" Tenameru asked and Joe smiled. Tenameru looked around the two people and saw the girl, who must have been Alex, was no longer there any more. With a father that she had Tenameru understood why she was no where in sight.

"You are to plant, grow and take care of the Alkicakes Night flowers, we have one little brat working on the farm but she can't stay up around the clock. She would kill everything. But all those damn roomers got around about a monsters no one wanted to help, not tell now."

"Okay, I can come every night, I'll come after sun set and leave before sunrise. You can pay me now or wait tell tomorrow, but you don't have to worry, I'll work and you'll hardly notice I'm here," Tenameru said and Joe shook his hand again the pulled out a sack of rupees. He let go of Tenameru's hand and dropped the sack into it. Tenameru smiled, though he really did not want the money, he was still trying to figure out why the hell he was doing this.

"You can go out back and look around, I'll be out in a moment to bring you your tools," Joe said as he slapped Tenameru on the back and Tenameru nearly hit the floor. He smiled slightly as he headed out towards where he though the back door was. Joe and his wife were talking with such happy tones in their voice.

Tenameru found himself walking threw a kitchen then he saw a door. He prayed it would not lead him into a closet. He opened the door and to his greatest of luck it lead him to the out side. Tenameru's smile then left his face as he step out into the night again.

"EP!" Tenameru jumped as the sound hit him hard. He jumped sideways as he noticed a girl standing in the darkest shadow she could find. He must have mistaken him for Joe. He understood why she was so scared, this must be the girl that was being yelled at.

As the girl saw her mistake, she took in a deep breath and started coming out of her hiding spot. as she came more and more into view Tenameru's heart nearly ripped out of his chest. The saying was, `seeing is believing' but what Tenameru was seeing he could not believe.

There coming out of the shadows was the girl with brown hair that was pulled up into pigtails. The girl with green eyes and band-aids on her face. The girl that on her leg was two more Band-Aid's. Then also there were deep red spots stained on her dress. She came out of the shadows and Tenameru stepped back from the girl, it was her, it was the girl from his dream.

" Sorry I scared you, I just thought..." She said in her soft scared voice. But she stopped talking as she saw the way Tenameru was looking at her. His look did not scare her, but it made her feel a warmth she had never felt before. His look was caring, friendly and worried. She did not have to be scared of this new comer.

"Your so beautiful," Tenameru said mainly to himself, he had not recollection of the girl hearing him, be bent over and took hold of her hand. "Why are you all beaten and bloody?"

"No...we should not be talking, if he sees me..." The girl said as she tried to pull away but as Tenameru's soft and gentle lips touched her hand she became frozen. Her heat did a huge three sixty in her body and she gasped for a breath of air.

"You did not answer me," Tenameru said as kind as he could to her, she needed to be cared for not yelled at. He was still quite taken back that this was really the girl, the girl he saw for many of weeks in his dreams. The girl, who had been calling to him.

"He hurts me when he gets mad, I'm not his child, I was dropped off by the Mamores when Liza and Adam Mamore died. They hate me and he hurts me if I blink at the wrong time, I hate him and he knows it....he-" She stopped again and pulled her hand away before he could freeze her again. She then ran back to her shadow where she was first hiding. Tenameru reached out for her but she was gone again.

Had that been real? What had really happened, Tenameru was confused. He put his hands over his face as he heard the back door open. Tenameru dropped his hands from his face as he looked at Joe who had the biggest smile on his face.

"Here are your tools I trust you know who to take care of a plant?" Joe asked and Tenameru shook his head yes, and then Joe slapped him on the back again. At this rate if he kept slapping him on the back like that, his spine would go `snap snap'. "Get out here girl! If you make me go in there after you!"

"I'm coming..." The girl said softly as she came out the shadows again. She had been real and this left Tenameru stumped again. the Girl looked over at him then at Joe. The feeling of hope faded away from her as Joe gave her a good whack to the back.

"Don't tell me what your doing and just do it rat," Joe said as he then grabbed on to the girls ear making her wince in pain as she tried to keep self on the ground. She really did not want her ear to be ripped off. Joe then dragged the weeping girl back into the house and shut the door.

"She's real and she's not a monster," Tenameru said as he hugged his tools. There was something about that girl. Something Tenameru needed, something that drove him here, it was going deeper then he though. He walked out away from the house, it would be not good if Joe started beating the crap out of him. He started working on the flowers, the whole time his mind was thinking about the girl, and how he never got her name.

The night was going on and on and his time was almost up for working that night. The whole time he was moving dirt, or re planting the flower he felt like there was a pair of eyes watching him. But as much as he looked around, he could find nothing that could be causing this feeling. But the second he arrived at this house, he learned to trust his feelings.

Almost 6 hours of working Tenameru sat down. He needed a little rest, but he hardly noticed. Thats when we saw the eyes and who the belonged to. Tenameru and carelessly turned back and looked at the house. His quick glances had not seen it, but there she was, leaning out an open window just staring out at him while he worked.

The girl in his dreams was watching him, Tenameru could not help but to watch her back. He wanted to go over and talk to her, but he still had about another hours worth of work to do before he needed to head out of here. He would have left to chat but as he moved in the direction towards her, she stood up and shut the shutters of her window. She must have been just as confused as he was. Tenameru did not see the girl the rest of the night, she must have went to sleep to get ready for her day full of work. But Tenameru did not give up hope, he was going to talk to her.

As Tenameru picked up his tools ready to leave and go get him self some sleep, he headed towards the direction of the girls window. He walked up to it and heard the voice of Alex and the girl. Alex was talking about getting her cleaned up so her wounds would not be infected.

How he longed to stay longer, but he had to get back to the Inn before the first ray of the sun. He ran off away from the house. But little did he know or even think, thats this time, this night. The girl was going to make contact with him...
