A few steps were taken in a random direction.

Link felt it within his very soul, he needed to travel this way.

"Watch out!"

It wasn't much of a warning, but nonetheless he should've listened to Navi's caution. As he found himself tripping on a root, falling down a hole.


Link opened his eyes, looking at what appeared to be the starry skies above him.

A blue light shone quite far away from him, spinning and twirling frantically-Link knew exactly who it was.

Navi.

His friend. Although she tended to be a bit of a nag, he was grateful that she stuck with him for the entirety of this journey. He sat himself up, attempting to catch her attention so that she could come over towards him.

...And yet, she didn't. Could she not see him at all? Did she not notice the hole he'd fallen down?

This made him feel rather unnerved, quickly Link glanced at the walls...Nope, they weren't climbable. He didn't seem to have any way out.

Of course, though...His hookshot could easily-

And his satchel was gone too, apparently. With it, every item he'd gathered. All except the Master Sword, and the Ocarina of Time. A brief thought came to him about simply playing a song to get out-And he tried as well. A place where Navi would be able to easily find him, and he'd be able to gather his items again without any trouble.

In the end, all he was doing was playing music. Whatever this place was, it was invisible to faeries, and impossible to use magic as means of getting out.

Well, with all means of other escape gone...Link knew that he'd definitely need to hope there was another way out.

There had to be, after all, there seemed to be some sort of doorway over at the end of the...Hall? Huh. He should've really paid more attention, then.

So Link decided that, while despite missing his tools from the past, he would muster his determination, and, much stronger, his bravery. The young Hylian would manage to explore this place, going on the hope that perhaps, perhaps there would be some sort of exit.

"Golly, are you a human? Oh how cool! That makes two in such a short amount of time!"

A child's voice interrupted his focus. In a snap Link's attention turned to the source.

...A talking flower. Okay, not exactly weird for him. He was raised by a talking tree after all. But still, quite an unusual occurrence. So he knelt down to listen to whatever it had to say.

The flower giggled, "Well, allow me to introduce myself-My name's Flowey-Flowey the flower!" Not a very creative name. But hey-He'd named his cow Mrs. Moo. So who was he to really complain..?

"You don't talk much, do ya?"

Link shook his head, nope. Sure didn't.

"Well, that's okay!" the flower perked up, "But golly, you must be so confused!" he giggled, "If you want, I can teach you how things work around here!"

Well, that was certainly nice of the talking flower. He nodded his consent, and suddenly felt a tug about himself. The flower, Flowey, seemed greedily focused on whatever he was doing. In an instant, anyone who looked at Link could see for but the faintest of moments an orange heart.

But it cut off, Flowey seeming stunned about whatever he'd seen within Link...

...Then he laughed.

And he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed and he laughed...

"Wow! You sure are vicious, aren't cha?" Flowey finally said aloud when he finished with his fit of laughter. The look on his face seemed almost...Proud of Link. For whatever it was he'd seen within him.

A creepier grin came across the flower's face, "After all, it takes a real monster to harvest twenty souls!"
