Chapter 1: How It All Started
Leroy looked around in curiosity.
He knows his dad is around here somewhere waiting to get him.
Leroy has been in training since he was able to hold his little Kokori Sword.
But, Leroy is not little anymore. He's 17 and still growing.
Link is 41 and is faster than the naked eye.
Leroy is sometimes baffled by the movements of his father but who isn't.
"I know you're here somewhere dad," Leroy says confidently holding his bamboo training sword (which is completely harmless unless you smack someone in the face with it).
Leroy heard something in the bushes and decided to take a look.
He walked slowly over there and every step he took was stricken with fear.
As he opened the bushes a sigh of relief came to him as he saw a squirrel.
"Whew," he said in relief.
"Got ya!" Link got his son in a chokehold with the bamboo sword. Leroy hit his father in the head with the bamboo sword and his father backed off.
"You're easily distracted, Leroy," Link said darkly.
"Shut up and fight," Leroy said as proud as could be.
"You just told your old man to shut up," Link said, "That's extra punishment with the stick."
Like it's not punishment enough to get beat by that thing anyways Leroy said in his head.
Leroy leaped at him and was struck by the bamboo sword but he gave no sign of giving up.
Leroy quickly tried to hit his father but was blocked every shot and finally Link knocked the bamboo sword out of his hand.
"Oh no," Leroy said trying to move out the way but was hit in the head with the sword.
Link continued his assault until he heard this voice:
"Dinner's ready!" Link dropped his bamboo sword on the ground and looked at his son.
"Come eat."
"Ouch, yes sir," Leroy said as he limped behind his dad.
When they got there Link sat down at the table and dug in.
Zelda walked over to Leroy and hugged him.
"How are you doing," she asked.
"Ummmmmmmmm...ouch."
Zelda looked at Link, "I see." Zelda walked off and fixed their plates.
Leroy sat down and looked at his dad. "You got more than me."
Link looked at him and laughed. "I'm old I need my vitamins."
"I'm 17 and I'm still growing," Leroy said as he reached over to grab a piece of his fathers chicken. His father grabbed his hand and raised his eyebrow.
"You got some balls to reach into my plate kid."
"Link, don't say balls at the dinner table!" Zelda got a frying pan and started to beat Link in the head with it.
"OUCH! OUCH! OUCH!"
"Never say balls!" Zelda said screaming at Link and she stopped.
"Ok, I won't say it again."
Leroy couldn't hold it anymore he laughed so hard he started crying.
"What's so funny Leroy," Zelda asked with the frying pan still in her hand.
"Nothing," Leroy said getting back to his food.
2 hours later...
Leroy laid in the bed and looked up at the ceiling wondering when his dad was going to let him leave on his own.
"I'm never going to leave this place," Leroy said softly to himself.
All of a sudden his dad stormed into the room and threw some clothes on Leroy's bed.
"Your mother is gone."
