Chapter One: Talk to the Tree
In the land of Hyrule, the world created by the three Golden Goddesses, there was a forest inhabited by the Kokiri, a race of immortal children who never age beyond Childhood, nor die. There, the Great Deku Tree watched over them. Each child had his or her own fairy, a guardian companion.
However, there was one exception…
"Navi, where art thou? Come hither at once," called the Deku Tree.
A tiny, white-winged, blue orb of light soared in front of the great tree's features, (which resembled a woman's face,) and hovered there.
"Navi," the tree spoke, "Dost thou feel it, the cold climate of Evil coming closer? Long has the Kokiri Forest served as a barrier against the evil. But against this new power, even my power is as an infant. Speaking of which, it seems the time has come for the "Girl-Without-A-Fairy" to start her quest. Please find our young friend and bring her back to me."
"Yes Master" Navi chirped with building excitement.
"Fly, little Navi, fly! The fate of the forest, nay, the world rests upon thee." And with that, Navi zoomed off to the village.
In her treehouse in the village, Alexi Usagi lay asleep in her bed. She was unaware of the tiny fairy that had flown through her door.
"Hello, Alexi! Wake up! The Great Deku Tree wants to chat with you! Get up!"
Alexi rolled onto her stomach, and slept on.
"Hey! Come on!" Navi zoomed about Alexi's head. "Can Hyrule's destiny really depend on such a lazy girl?"
"I heard that you know." Alexi said, sitting up groggily. "I can't help that I'm not as much a morning person as I used to be."
"You finally woke up!" Navi cheered. "I'm Navi the fairy. The Great Deku Tree asked me to be your partner."
"Really?" Alexi asked, sitting up in bed. "No kidding!" Alexi stood up, stretched and straightened her white skirt. She adjusted her short white tank-top and brushed her snowy white hair out of her ice blue eyes.
"Let's go see the Great Deku Tree." Navi said before fluttering into Alexi's pocket.
Alexi made her way out to the balcony and gazed at the village. She would've enjoyed the view a little longer, but was interrupted by a girl crying: "Yahoo! Hi Alexi!"
Alexi smiled down at the green-haired girl.
"Hi Saria," Alexi said, starting to climb down from her balcony. She let go of the ladder and jumped the last 5 rungs.
"Watch it!" cried a tiny voice from in her pocket. Saria gazed at her in awe.
"What was that?" she asked.
Navi, wondering the same, decided to fly out of Alexi's pocket.
"Wow! A fairy!" Saria exclaimed as she saw the little orb of light. "I'm so glad a fairy finally came to you. Now you are a True Kokiri!"
"Thanks Saria." Alexi said, winking at her best friend. "Navi here says the Great Deku Tree asked to speak with me."
"Is that right?" Saria was amazed at what she heard. "It's quite an honor to speak with the Great Deku Tree. I'll wait here for you to return."
Alexi made her way to the door leading to the Deku Meadow, but was blocked by a boy in a lime green tunic.
"Hey, it's "Miss No-Fairy"! What business have you with the Great Deku Tree?" he asked, crossing his arms over his chest. "I, the Great Mido, boss of the Kokiri, must protect her grove."
"Even from the rest of the Kokiri children?" Alexi asked, clearly in a state of being caught off guard, and yet quickly getting upset.
"You think you should talk?" Mido hissed, "You aren't even properly equipped yet for crying out loud. You need a Deku Shield and a Sword before you can pass. Sheesh!"
Alexi went back to where Saria waited by her treehouse.
"Mido says I can't go see the Deku Tree." She said, slightly winded.
"That bum! Why is he so mean to everyone?" Saria fumed. Composing herself, she looked at Alexi and said, "There's a shop where you can buy shields, deku nuts and arrows, but there's only one sword."
"Oh darn! I left my wallet in my treehouse." Alexi said.
"So go up and get it." Saria smiled. "I'll still be right here when you come back down." Alexi climbed the ladder, grabbed her wallet, and climbed back down, again jumping the final 5 rungs.
"After you get your shield, go to the training area just up the hill." Saira advised. "There's a tunnel you have to crawl through to find the Sword."
Alexi winked at her friend, and ran to the shop.
"Welcome," said the shop keeper. "What can I help you with today?"
"Hi there." Alexi said. "Do you have any Deku Shields in stock?"
The shop owner smirked. "So you finally want to make a purchase? That should certainly help with your innocent play."
"Funny," Alexi joked, smirking back. "Actually, the Great Deku Tree summoned me."
"No way!" the shop keeper was dumbfounded. "40 rupees for one shield."
"Mm-hmm. Let me see now," Alexi opened her wallet and rummaged through it. She had saved 87 rupees, some of which she'd gotten from Saria. She placed a purple rupee on the counter.
"There's fifty." Alexi held her hand palm up on the counter. Then after the owner placed 2 blue rupees in her hand, she put them in her wallet, thanked the owner and left.
Alexi jogged up the hill and made her way to the small hole Saria had mentioned to crawl inside.
She felt odd, as though she was embarrassed and yet happy at the same time, crawling about like the little baby she used to be.
On the other side, she saw a boulder rolling in circles around a stone block. She waited until the boulder rounded the corner.
"Run faster!" Navi chided Alexi, who was jogging around the block.
"What does it look like I'm trying to do?" Alexi shot back, clearly not in the mood for more bullying. From Mido it was completely understandable, he was a selfish bully. But from Navi…
If she was any bigger, perhaps half Alexi's own height, Alexi would gladly spank her.
She made her way towards the chest and opened it. Inside was a white saber with a cylindrical pommel on the end of the hilt, which had a catlike mask over it.
"With this saber, I shall lead Hyrule to victory!" Alexi exclaimed. "I hear some people name their swords." Navi just giggled.
"Great! But right now we need to see the Great Deku Tree."
"Right," Alexi said, remembering her objective. "I'd like to see the face of "The Great Middle Man" when he sees I got the sword."
After Alexi got back to the way to the Deku Meadow, she was greeted by Mido, who had a sleepy look on his face.
"You never learn do you?" he asked. "No shield, no sword, not even a fairy."
"Come on out baby," Alexi said, gazing at her pocket. Navi fluttered up to her cheek.
"What? A fairy?!" Mido was thrown off guard at seeing the little orb flying by Alexi's face. "But where's your-"
"Shield?" Alexi asked. "Got it on my back." Then, as an afterthought, Alexi added, "And I got this too!" She slowly drew her saber just enough for Mido to see the hilt. Mido's jaw dropped.
"The Kokiri Queen demands you stand aside and let me pass." Alexi mocked.
"Good grief! How did you get to be the favorite of both the Great Deku Tree and Saria!" Mido grumbled as she made her way to the Deku Meadow.
"Great Deku Tree, I'm back!" Navi called.
Alexi stared in wonder at the great tree. Its features giving the look of a woman's face, the way it seemed to tower over the meadow, providing shade and comfort…
"Ah, Navi, thou hast returned. Alexi, welcome." said the tree in her deep, booming, yet gentle voice.
"G-good morning," Alexi said, trying not to sound too nervous. Standing before the Great Deku Tree she felt small, like a baby.
"Listen carefully little one. Thy slumber these past moons hath been quite restless, filled with nightmares… As the beings born of evil gain strength, a climate of icy cold and fear falls upon the land and causes nightmares to those sensitive to it… Verily, thou hast felt it?"
"Yes, ma'am," Alexi nodded slowly.
"The time has come for you to test thy courage…" the Great Deku Tree said.
"What must I do?" Alexi asked, relaxing in despite her nervousness.
"I have been cursed. I need thou to break the curse with thy wisdom and courage."
"I don't know if I can," Alexi said. She wanted to do her guardian's bidding, but as the matter concerned life vs death, she felt her self confidence shake a little.
With a low creak, the Great Deku Tree opened her mouth wide. Alexi stared into the opening.
"Enter, brave Alexi, and thou also Navi. Navi, guide little Alexi safely through. Alexi, listen to Navi's words of wisdom."
Taking a deep breath to steady herself, Alexi stepped into the dark opening…
A/N: Sory to end it there folks, but I figure that could serve as an intro to the tale. Lots of kind reviews and ideas please, and I am ALWAYS open to suggestions as to who wants what to happen next.
If you're clever, you might even figure out my own name, which by the way, you're more than welcome to use when contacting me personally.
Cheers! White Lego Ninja.
