I don't own Zelda or anything else, I did it would be cool. But it belongs to Nintendo. Not me.

**= change of point of veiw from me to Link or vice versa.

Chapter1-what happened

I ran away from the Sacred Grove. I couldn't take it anymore. I ran away to Faron Woods. I'm in Hyrule. I, a select few of my classmates, got sent here. I climbed a tree pretty high up. I sat on a branch overlooking Hyrule Castle. I began playing the Ocarina of Time. My blonde hair blew a bit because of the breeze. I stopped playing and tried to blow a bit of hair out of my face, then, because it didn't work, brushed it aside. I have green eyes that seem to dominate my head. I have a high forehead and long, sort of thin eyebrows. I'm wearing a dark red T-shirt, a pair of jeans on with my gray, white, and pink tennis shoes. I sat on the tree limb, thinking. Rrrhhhh I never should have bet that race with Patrick!

I was standing in Hyrule Castle's throne room; I was discussing what needed to be done with Patrick after what he did to Catherine with Princess Zelda and Ganondorf.

"Isn't there any way to reverse the spell he put on her?"

I asked the Princess.

"Link, why are you so worried about her? I'm sure she'll be just fine."

That's my name, Link. 5 months ago I saved Hyrule from being enveloped in the Twilight, a shadow realm kin to Hyrule. I defeated Ganondorf, who has been revived. Apparently he's a good man now; though I have my doubts. Also 2 months ago, a bunch of kids got teleported from another world. However I quickly grew annoyed with them. The reason I'm so worried is Patrick took away her ability to talk. They had a bet to see who could get the Master Sword out of its pedestal in the past first. Neither of them won. They were both close to the blade though, Catherine was almost touching it. But Patrick wanted it so badly he hit Catherine with some kind of magic. After we told him to reverse it, he told us he didn't know how. And Ganondorf, who taught him how to do that, said there is no way to reverse it. Then Catherine ran off. Anyway, back to the conversation.

"Just fine; she can't talk anymore! You think she'll be fine!"

I yelled at Zelda.

"Link calm down."

Ganondorf said to me.

"There's nothing that can be done about it now. She'll just have to live with it."

"Live with it? How is she supposed to explain to her family what happened when she can't say a word? Isn't there anything that would get her voice back?"

"Link, there's nothing in the world that can get it back."

"Now since you're so worried about what she'll do, why don't you go find her?"

Zelda told me. I ran off to Epona, my horse.

I rode through Faron Woods causally. It was night. But then something caught my ear, an ocarina. I looked up at the trees. I saw in the one above me…a girl…no…Catherine, sitting on a high branch. I began to climb up. Naturally, when you've grown up in a forest, you learn how to climb trees easily; and I did.

"Uhh…hey."

I climbed up near her.

"What are you doing up here?"

I asked trying my best to sound causal. She just turned her head away.

"I heard an ocarina. Was it you playing?"

She nodded. Catherine started playing a song…..what I use to call Epona.

"Where did you learn that? I've never played that in front of you or your friends."

She wrote something down and showed me.

'I've known this song ever since I was young. I learned it from you.'

I looked at her with confusion.

"How did you learn Epona's song from me? This is the first time we've met."

'I may not look like it, but I've gone through the same things you have, even more.'

"Huh? That makes no sense…"

'Your ears make no sense.'

"Hey!"

She began playing again, this time a new song. The one Skull Kid plays.

"I know that tune."

Cath nodded.

'Saria's Song.'

"You're pretty good at communicating without a voice."

No response.

"Why'd you run out here? You could've been hurt you know."

'You're worried about me?'

"Well yeah!"

'…..Why are you worried?'

"Well we're friends aren't we?"

'I guess if that's how you put it. But I hardly know you and you hardly know me.'

We were both silent for awhile. I decided to break it.

"You know Patrick has the Master Sword now. He pulled it out after you ran off."

I saw her face change to a look of shock then to anger.

'Patrick was corrupted by magic, evil magic. I have to get the sword back Link! Patrick doesn't know the responsibility of wielding it.'

"Oh and you know the responsibility of saving a kingdom? I highly doubt you do."

'Yes, I do!'

"You want me to take you to the castle?"

She nodded but paused…then gave another nod.

"Ok, let's go."

We both climbed down the tree and got on Epona. I rode as fast as I could. After we were almost to the castle, I looked behind me at her. Catherine's eyes were wide with wonder as she watched everything pass. Why is she so fascinated? It's riding a horse.

When we got to the castle I looked left and right trying to find Patrick. I looked at Link.

"I don't know where he is. You go find him."

I turned to the castle and ran in. Finally I found the armory there he was.

"Oh, hey Catherine you're ok."

I just stood there glaring.

"Where were you?"

I rolled my eyes and opened my mouth as if trying to say something, then gave an over dramatic gesture to say,

'Oh gee, I can't talk remember?'

"Oh that's right you can't talk anymore."

I rolled my eyes hugely and let my arms smack my sides as they came down.

Yeah no duh you're the one who did this to me.

Patrick noticed my eyes looking at the sword. I pointed then turned my palms to him to say,

'How?'

"Oh, you want to know how I got it?"

I nodded.

"Well, Ganondorf told me to grab it, so I got it after you ran off. I'm actually pretty good with it."

Betcha $5 you suck with it. Wait…Ganondorf did WHAT? I knew there was something up with him!

"You look worried. What's wrong?"

I tried doing some type of hand motion but Patrick just looked confused…I just ran off…till I smacked head first into the wall. I rubbed my temples as I sat there.

"Hey are you ok?"

I pushed Patrick's hand off me and stood up. I tried walking forward but walked like a drunk. I set my hand on the wall to hold me up.

"Gee Cat, you should watch where you're going."

I mouthed 'Shut up.'

"Ehhh, what are you trying to say?"

I smacked my forehead. Then I thought of something. I pointed at the Master Sword in his hand.

"What about my sword?"

You're sword?

I then made a grabbing motion for it. Patrick jumped back and held it protectively.

"No! It's mine!"

I lunged at him.

I'm gunna get that back if it takes my life!

"Link why did she ignore us?" Catherine's friends Laura and Theresa yelled at me.

"Umm….that's kind of hard to explain…." They were both glaring at me.

"She can't speak anymore."

"What?"

"When Patrick hit her with that spell, that's what happened." Ganondorf informed them.

Suddenly I heard something coming from inside the armory. It sounded like a fight.

"Link….where did Catherine go?"

Ganondorf asked as if he dreaded what had happened.

"She went to go find…"

Me and Ganondorf looked at each other, and then ran toward the source of the noise with Theresa and Laura behind us. We were all shocked at what we saw. Patrick was pinned to the ground, his back up, with Catherine placing her foot on his back to keep him there, and her other foot on his hand that was holding the sword.

"OW! OW! GET OFF OF ME!"

"TEH-YAAH!"

That was the sound she yelled. It sounded like one of my battle cries…wait…..I think I get it now! Patrick tried to make her sound like me! Wait…why would he do that?

"STOP MAKING NOISES AND GET OFF MY HAND!"

"YAAH!"

"Patrick if you let go of the sword, she'll get off you!"

I yelled at him.

"No way am I doing that you stupid elf!"

Elf? Man no one will listen to me!

"Patrick let go of the sword!"

Ganondorf yelled at him.

Patrick let go reluctantly. Oh sure listen to the old guy! Catherine jumped off him and was about to pick it up.

"Oh no you don't dare Catherine!"

Patrick leapt to his feet and pointed the sword at her throat.

"Go ahead; just try to take the Master Sword from me! I drew it out fair and square!"

She rolled her eyes at him.

"Yeah well I did! I got there first!"

Catherine studied him, then her surroundings.

"Aren't you going to do anything?"

Patrick yelled at her.

Was she planning on taking it from him by force? Patrick just scoffed at her.

"You think you can beat me!"

She nodded.

"We'll see about that!"

Then suddenly she tried to kick his hand. It didn't work; he caught it right before it hit his right hand. I was in utter shock. I mean 1: Her foot went up that high. And 2: He caught her foot with his hand. Patrick tossed Catherine at a suit of armor. She missed and hit the wall, very, very hard. Suddenly he was in front of her. She tried to kick him but then he disappeared. He was behind her and kicked her forward. Then he cut something in to her left hand. Then he went behind her and put part of his blade at her throat and began to choke her.

"Let her go!"

I took a step forward.

"If you come any closer I'll kill her!"

I stepped again. He held the blade tighter against her throat. I stepped back.

"Better….."

He was holding her in the air. Her face was a mixture of fright and determination to kick him and get away. Finally she kicked him and dropped to the floor. Then Patrick began to cut her; first at her left arm, then her right, then her left side, both her legs. After that he kicked her to the ground and was about to stab her! Yet, somehow, Catherine must have known where he was going to stab her, because she put her leg in the swords path, and the sword went through her leg. Her eyes widened and closed at the pain, but then she opened her eyes.

"Well…this is just nice. I get cut, bruised, and now a sword wound THROUGH MY BLOODY LEG! Why in the heck WERE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME! ARE YOU DAFT? HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?"

That came out of Catherine's mouth after being stabbed for 5 seconds.

"What…how are you talking again?"

"You think I know?"

They just stared at each other…not moving.

"Ok…is anybody going to get this sword out of my leg or what? No? All right then."

And then before my eyes, Catherine pulled the sword out of her leg. The only thing she muttered was…

"Ow…."

Then Catherine fell on her face, fainted. Patrick lunged, in for the kill.

Instantly Ganondorf and I got between them. Ganondorf held Patrick back, while I looked at Catherine. She was covered in blood.

"Check her pulse."

Ganon told me. I nodded.

"She still has one…but its faint, she's unconscious as well, from loss of blood no doubt."

Ganon called a guard over.

"Take Patrick to the dungeon. And send for a medic."

"NO! LEMME AT HER! COME ON! GANON! YOU SAID-"

"Be quiet boy!"

Laura spoke up.

"She'll be dead by then!"

Laura and Theresa ran over.

"Is there anywhere you could heal her?"

"I know a place."

I said.

"Get her there as quick as possible! If you don't hurry she could die!"

I dashed off on Epona through Hyrule Field as fast as I could; holding Catherine's unconscious form. I began bandaged her up under the tree we talked on. I rolled up her pant legs to wrap her knees. The wounds were deep. I put a wet cloth on her neck, I saw the wound was deep and blood oozed out of it. Her shirt was stained with the blood Patrick had spilt of hers, disgusting. I bandaged her hand up, because it was still bleeding badly, even worse than her neck. Then I set her leaning against the tree, and waited for her to wake up. It was around when I got here, now its 12 am. I had to build a fire to see. Suddenly she began to slowly stir.
