'Thoughts'
Two weeks had passed since he defeated Ganondorf and Zelda sent them all back in time. Link was a child once more but without his equipment and spells he had acquired during his adventure to save Hyrule. He also found that the people he had met didn't remember him since they never met him at this point in time.
"That princess just can't leave well enough alone." He grumbled as he laid down on his bed.
"Link?"
He turned to see Saria. "Oh hey Saria."
"Are you okay?"
"No."
"What's wrong?"
"Everything."
"Huh?"
"Nothing."
"Link?" She was very confused and worried.
"Never mind Saria."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah."
"Okay. Will I see you later?"
"Yes."
Saria frowned and left. She wondered if it was Mido being mean as usual or the lack of adventure now that he defeated Ganondorf. She hoped he would get better. She hated seeing her best friend so sad.
(With Zelda)
"Good afternoon princess."
"Sheik."
"You asked to see me?"
"I did. It was brought to my attention that you left the palace to go spy on Link."
"Who?" His eyes widened as he began to remember but luckily the princess didn't notice. "I'm sorry princess but I have no idea who this Link person is you are talking about."
"You don't remember?" She cursed herself immediately at what she asked.
"No. Who is he?"
"You really don't remember?"
"No. Again who is he?" He noticed the look of relief on her face.
"He was a boy who once visited the castle. He had been looking for his father. He was a guard here and he had died in the line of duty. No one told the family. You helped him home."
"I see."
"Don't worry I'll find out why someone lied."
"Thank you princess."
"You're welcome. Goodbye Sheik."
"Goodbye princess." He left the room.
"Kara?"
"Yes princess?"
"You told me Sheik had been spying on Link."
"He was. I saw him."
"Are you sure it was Sheik?"
"Yes. He is the only sheiken with blond hair."
"That is true."
"He must have been lying."
"No he wasn't. Sheik hasn't learned how to keep people from detecting a lie."
"Oh."
"Bring proof next time."
"Yes princess."
"Zelda?"
"Hello Impa. Is something wrong?"
"No. I was just informing you that I would be gone for a couple days. I am taking Sheik to the hidden village for training now that he passed his entrance exam."
"Entrance exam?"
"He managed to guard Lord Tavi's son, Tavi Jr."
Zelda realized something. "Does Tavi Jr have blond hair and blue eyes?"
"Yes he does. Is something wrong?"
"Yes. Kara?"
"Yes princess?"
"Was the boy that Sheik was watching a blond haired, blue eyed boy dressed in green or was he a blond hair, blue eyed boy wearing a green hat and tunic?"
She thought about it before answering smugly, "The first one."
"Zelda?" Impact wondered what was going on.
"Kara that would be lord Tavi's son. He wasn't spying on him but guarding him."
"Oh." The wiped the smile of her face.
"Next time you want to accuse someone make sure to bring proof."
"Yes princess."
"Leave."
"Yes princess." She fled the room.
"Zelda?" Impa tried once more.
"Yes?"
"Can you tell me what is going on?"
"Kara tried to get Sheik in trouble but the truth came out."
"I see." She was seething on the inside.
"Tell Sheik that I wish him good luck."
"I will. Goodbye Zelda."
"Goodbye Impa."
