Link was walking on his usual path in the forest, and sat on a large boulder and opened a paper bag with some apples in it and started eating one.

"A great day, and no one to share it with..." Link said watching the clouds and eating his apple.

"Of course I have a worm in one of my apples..." He rolled his eyes setting the apple on the ground near the rock and went to get another and rubbed it until he heard someone crying.

"Oh what now..." He sighed leaving the paper bag and went in the direction of the noise.

"Hmm..." Link thought as he peared through the bushes and saw the girl crying in the middle of the woods.

"Hey, now what's the matter?" Link asked squating down to the height of the girl sitting and she didn't answer.

"What, not going to say? Well lemme guess, are you lost or something?" The girl nodded.

"That makes it easier for me to help you..." Link said in a soft voice.

"I don't want your help. I've never met you, and you could take me away..."

"If I would do that, I would of just taken you now, however I would never do that." Link said looking around the area.

"Um..."

"I want to help you, now will you wipe your tears away? There's no reason to be upset when you're lost." Link said offering her a tissue and the girl blotted her eyes.

"Now, are you going to come with me? Because I may be able to help you."

"No..."

"Listen, you may not be able to find help in a while, and I can't do that, my conscious won't let me. Now, will you accept my help or what?" Link said reaching out a hand.

"Ok..." The girl grabbed onto Link's arm after getting up and clung to him.

"Haha, you're really jumpy." Link laughed and the two walked off into the forest.

They were walking in the forest and the winds started to gust more and the leaves fell from the trees and swept up from the ground.

"This is my favorite part of fall...It just makes me think of everything happy..." Link sighed as they walked through the leaves and even jumped into a pile of them.

"Where are we?"

"I dunno, really if you're so lost then call out for the last person you were with, then they may locate you easier."

"Ran!"

"You were with someone named Ran?" Link snickered.

"Yes, your point?"

"Oh, nothing! It's just it's a weird name...Hahaha!"

"Don't laugh! It's not funny!"

"Fine, I won't...I got it out now, I'm good."

"You're mean!"

"I was kidding at the weird name, mine's weirder, who names someone 'Link'?" Link saw the girl started to laugh and the bushes started to rustle, Link pushed the girl behind him and he got out his sword and shield.

"I'll protect ya!" Link said and the rustling of the bushes got louder until someone came out and their eyes widened with happiness.

"Chen! There you are!" The girl ran up to her and hugged the other person.

"Ran, you found me!"

"Please don't leave again, you really were scared weren't you?"

"A little...until he found me..." Chen pointed at Link.

"Oh, really? He found you?" Ran said walking over to Link and looked at him closely.

"...Can I help you?" Link asked backing into a tree.

"No, but you helped me." Ran said smiling.

"Yeah, so?" Link said reaching for his sword.

"So, you helped me. I enjoy it, but I need to go for a minute." Ran said running away into the bushes again.

"Wonder what all that was about..." Link said tilting his head.

"Ok, my master would like to see you!" Ran said coming through the bushes again.

"I guess I can cut time from my busy schedual..." Link laughed and they came out of the forest.
