//Update - January 2007:// PLEASE EXCUSE THE INCESSANT EVIL LAUGHTER AND EXCLAMATION MARKS IN THE AUTHOR'S NOTES. I'm being serious here! xD;;
Anyway, finally, after years, I'm done revising the beginning of the story. I've rewritten chapters 1-19, which were originally in script format, into paragraph form because I have this paranoia that this site might delete this gem of a story of mine. THANK THE GODDESSES I'VE FINISHED! 19 chapters is a lot people... and I've added/edited scenes so yes!
I first started this story in 2002 (march 15!), when I was brand new to this site five years ago. Haha, and as I went through the chapters, I noticed how weird and stupid I used to be, which is blatantly reflected in the A/N's. Sorry 'bout those. And I'm keeping them to remember how strange I was a few years back. :D The story is okay, I think, but it improves MAJORLY in later chapters. Don't judge a book by its cover!

See any mistakes/weird things? Don't hesitate to tell me! I'll fix 'em!

Enjoy "We're In Hyrule, stupid!"!

Disclaimer: I do not own Zelda, blah blah blah, but I do own this story! Oh yeah, and I also don't own my friends either. If I did, they would be cleaning my house right now!!! Mwahahahaha!!!!!!!! I'm evil, EVIL (and crazy) I TELL YOOOOOOOOU!!!!!!

Holy guacamole on a popsicle stick!!!!! I know that this has been done tooo many times but OH WELL!! I wanted to try my luck and see if this would come out a good story. I had a very good idea anyway!!! The Zelda characters will be in chapter 2, so bear with me here!! Please R+R!

Chapter 1: My friends and my sleepover!! Yay! Good 4 me!! (original title)/Introducing Characters and the Portal!

A raven-haired girl woke up to hear the light snoring of her four friends in her room. She had arranged a sleepover last night and she invited two boys and two girls. Her parents had asked if it was a good idea for three girls to sleep with two boys, and she simply answered, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. The boys I invited are mature." Well, these two boys got hyper once they are not in front of an adult.

The night before, the five friends were playing a fun marathon of video games, mostly Super Smash Brothers, before falling asleep in their casual clothing. Nobody even bothered to change into their pajamas. Anyway, one of her friends, Hayarpi, woke up because she heard Nicole mumbling to herself.

"Hi Nicole!" Hayarpi said cheerfully, "Why did you wake up so early?"

"Shh! Anyway, I don't know. Um, just go back to sleep..."

"Oh, okay." Then she fell back and started sleeping again.

'Finally! I can go play now!' Nicole thought excitedly.

She took her N64 and her Zelda game (OoT) and tiptoed to the living room. Nicole plugged everything in and started to play. Another one of her friends, Brian, woke up and exited her room.

"Hi Nicole, I just woke up... hey, what are you doing at five in the morning?"

"Well, I'm so anxious to finish this freakin' game already. Well, why are you up?"

"I couldn't sleep. Can I watch?"

"All right!"

"I'm going to go get some juice. Want some?"

"Sure!"

"Get me some juice too," muttered Gilbert as he stepped out of the bedroom. Nicole and Brian turned their attention to him.

"Huh? Why are you awake?" they both said.

Gilbert yawned and scratched his head. "I heard you guys talking. Can't a guy get some sleep around here?"

Nicole stared at him with sorry eyes. "Sorry! Will you forgive me, daddy?!" Gilbert inched away.

"Why don't I just get the whole pitcher?" suggested Brian.

Gilbert nodded. "Good idea. Someone else might wake up anyway."

"Why am I always the first to wake up?" Nicole asked no one in particular.

"Nicole, don't start the game with out me, okay?" said Brian.

"Okay, okay, just go already!"

"Yes, my lord!" Brian snickered.

"Oh shut up."

Hayarpi came strolling out of the room. "What's going on here?"

"Wow, you guys really //are// light sleepers!" Nicole laughed.

"Yeah, except Ines."

Brian sighed. "She's still not up yet?"

Nicole glanced at him, giving him an exasperated look. "I thought you went already!"

"I will obey, master!"

Hayarpi giggled.

"HEY!"

"GO ALREADY!" both Gilbert and Nicole yelled.

Brian jumped and nodded. "Sorry!"

Finally, Ines groggily exited the bedroom. "Ok, can't a girl get her beauty sleep?"

Everybody stared at her. "O.o Beauty Sleep?"

"Yeah, beauty sleep!"

"Ahh! Will all of you stop talking so loud? You'll wake my parents!" said Nicole.

Brian came back carrying a pitcher of orange juice. "Here's the juice."

"Thanks servant! Now go eat cheese!" Nicole said as she took the pitcher.

"O.o;; Huh?"

"Forget it!" She looked around. "Dude... where are the glasses?"

Brian slapped his forehead. "Oops! I'll go get them!" He grinned cheesily at Nicole and entered the kitchen. After a while, he came back carrying five glasses. Brian put them on the coffee table in the living room and Nicole began pouring juice into each one, handing a glass to each person.

"There you go!" she said happily, taking a sip of juice.

"So, what were you and Brian doing so early?" Ines asked suddenly, lowering her glass and smirking.

"Oh yeah huh, what //were// you doing, huh?" said Gilbert, grinning. Hayarpi frowned, but it disappeared in an instant.

Brian waved his hands in front of himself in defense. "HEY! Hold on, I just woke up minutes after Nicole did so shove it!"

"Don't be so mean!" said Nicole, sweatdropping, "I woke up so I could finish my freakin' game!"

"Oh, the game that you love sooo much?"

"Yeah. OoT. Ya know, the one with Link in it?"

"Of course we know," Ines defended. "We like the series too. But seriously, compared to you... I swear, you're obsessed."

"I was just going to watch her." added Brian.

Everybody smiled in understanding. "Ohhhh."

"Ok, I'm going to start now..."

There was silence as Nicole turned on the Nintendo 64 and started playing the game. The menu screen popped up and Nicole chose the file named "Link". Everybody eyed the file...

"What?! You're barely in Dodongo's Cavern and you want to finish the "freakin' game"?"

"... Yes..."

Everyone except Nicole anime fell. (2007 note: haha wtf? "anime fell"?)

"Ok, yeah, I know... stupid princess..." Nicole grumbled, punching the A button way too hard. Suddenly, a shimmering portal appeared directly on the TV.

"Hey, look, a swirly thing!" said Ines in awe, slowly sticking her hand in it. It went right through. "O.o;; Aaahh! My hand!"

"Wow, cool!" Nicole yelled, thinking about the stories she read with people going into video games. She was about to jump in, but then stopped and turned to her friends. "Umm, wait. Are all of you familiar with the Zelda characters?"

Everyone save Nicole exchanged glances, then nodded at her. "Yeah, why?" Ines asked. Nicole grinned.

"GREAT!" She pushed Ines in and tossed everyone else too. With a demented laugh Nicole jumped in the portal herself.
