Narrator: It was a Dark and Stormy night, back in that awkward period known as April of 1998. All of you older Zelda gamers will remember this time (or hopefully you were too drunk to...). Let's just say it was really awkward. Most people had finally beaten OoT for the fifteenth time without getting hit once, getting the Kokiri Sword, or getting Epona. And yet... there was really nothing new coming from Nintendo. Sure, Mask of Mujula had been announced, and a few ugly screenshots had been released, but Nintendo was too busy making the game to try and lure any fans into developing insane rumors about it...
But still... they all had OoT. And the Internet. :::shudders::: A most deadly of combinations.
Since the creation of the internet, people have been able to spread rumors far faster than they have been able to dispel them. And eventually, it got to the point where the Princess of Hyrule herself couldn't help but take notice...
This Tale's Setting - Hyrule Castle - Three Years after the defeat of Ganondorf and Link is sent back in Time. Link, 13, now lives in Hyrule Castle with Impa and Zelda, 14, and is officially the "Guardian of the Triforce". He even gets his own room!
Link: :::jumping up and down on bed::: WHEE:::bounce:::WHEE:::bounce:::WHEE:::bounce:::WHEE:::bounce:::WHEE!!!!
Narrator: A Ping is Heard Off-stage, followed by an annoying voice proclaiming "You've got Mail!"
Link: :::hears noise, bounces off bed, lands on floor in a not-too-neat manner::: fine, fine, I'm coming...
Narrator: Link runs up to his computer (given to him by Princess Zelda for the purpose of monitoring the state of the Kingdom, but used far more for 2 am Minesweeper Fests:::
Link: :::cuts in::: I've beaten it on expert!
Narrator: :::applauds half-heartedly::: Link, shouldn't you be answering that E-Mail? It might be from the Princess.
Link: Yeah, I /should/ read it... but it's probably just Zelda telling me about another Triforce Rumor or some Spam. I don't like spam, but I like Triforce Rumors less. Do you know how many times I've had to re-fight Ganon this /WEEK/? SIX.
Narrator: :::shrugs::: that must stink for you...
Link: :::opening up Email box on computer::: yeah, it does... I mean, really, doesn't Zelda understand the whole "I have a piece, she has a piece, Ganondorf has a piece - Triforces usually don't have too many pieces..." Thing? What is she expecting me to find? The part that goes in the middle? :::turns back to computer::: Yup, all Spam... spam, spam, spam... oo... "The Sword of Evil's Bane - Now in a Convenient Six-Pack!"... gone!... "Ganondorf only failed because he didn't follow the Evil Overlord list. Don't be a fool also. It's only 50 rupees for one copy."... DELETED!!!
Narrator: Hey, there's a message from the Princess... why don't you read it?
Link: ... aww... fine, fine, I'll read it...

Andi: I'm sorry, what? I don't understand what's going on...
Link: Let's see... Zelda just discovered some new internet OoT rumor sites out there, and with me being the "Guardian of the Triforce" as I am, it's my job to look into any rumors, however stupid, and find the Triforce and bring it back to Zelda to be protected...
Andi: ... but doesn't Ganondorf have the last piece of the Triforce...?
Link: ... that's what I said... but she said something about it "BEING ON THE INTERNET" giving it validity, and shooed me on my way...
Andi: ... well, why don't you just /not/ go on these wild goose chases and just lie to her instead?
Link: :::gasps!::: But... I'm the Hero of Time! I can't lie!
Andi: Fine, then! I'll lie for you! See this? :::picks up triangle-shaped rock off ground, pulls out yellow spraypaint can, sprays rock::: See this? This is now the Triforce of Power... Okay?

Andi: Hey! My line!!!
Link: Ok... so this is the Triforce. Got it.

Andi: ... yes I do... it just shrunk...
Ganondorf: Oh, okay!
Andi: So, what's up?
Ganondorf: ...nothing... just looking for the Triforce... you haven't seen it around here anywhere, have you?
Andi: ... I don't think so, but last I checked online, the latest rumor was that some squirrels up in the Lost Woods were hiding it in their den... maybe you should look into it...
Ganondorf: Wow? Really? I must have missed that rumor! Thanks a lot, kid!
Andi: :::cackles::: and with that, every single plot hole of OoT was closed... thanks to one insane author... :::disappears in haze of blue light:::

Link: Ok... so this is the Triforce. Got it.
Andi: Good! Now you bring that back to Zelda and get her to shut her trap up... and while you're at it, pull out the Megaton Hammer and give her room the redecorating job it so desperately needs...
Link: Okie-Dokie! Can do! :::evil look on face, scampers off into sunset with his still-wet Triforce in hand:::
Andi: :::hears rustle in bushes behind her, turns around:::
Bush: :::rustle-rustle:::
Andi: Stop right there, or I'll smie thee with the.... erm... /DEKU STICK OF JUSTICE/!!!
Ganondorf: :::pops out of bush::: EEKDON'THURTMEPLEASE!!!
Andi: WAH!!!
Ganondorf: ... hey! WAIT! You don't have the Deku Stick of Justice! Liar!
Andi: ... yes I do... it just shrunk...
Ganondorf: Oh, okay!
Andi: So, what's up?
Ganondorf: ...nothing... just looking for the Triforce... you haven't seen it around here anywhere, have you?
Andi: ... I don't think so, but last I checked online, the latest rumor was that some squirrels up in the Lost Woods were hiding it in their den... maybe you should look into it...
Ganondorf: Wow? Really? I must have missed that rumor! Thanks a lot, kid!
Andi: :::cackles::: and with that, every single plot hole of OoT was closed... thanks to one insane author... :::disappears in haze of blue light:::
