The Legend of Zelda: Links Journey to Find Home
Link was done with it all! The grueling trips to stop Ganondorfs evil, the jumping through time and the offhand adventure in Termina were all over. But Link couldn't rest just yet. Navi. Navi was still missing in his life. The first person er… fairy in his life that stuck by him no matter what. That is until the journey was over. Searching deep in the lost forest for her was no easy task. Especially since he was knocked unconscious by that skulkid and dragged to Termina. Heh, bet Majora didn't see that one coming. Link was exhausted by the time he got back into Hyrule; he was looking forward to some rest and relaxation back at his tree house in the Kokiri village. Of course things don't always go as planned.
'Where is everyone?' Link looked around the village to see absolutely no one there. The fairies weren't doing odd jobs for their partners, their partners were nowhere to be found and it was silent as death in the village. Link would have been scared if he didn't know that the deku sprout was in this time as well. There was nothing really to worry about Link noted to himself as he walked into the village. Epona never liked the lost forest so Link let her go in Hyrule field for the night. It was just after dusk when Link's footsteps echoed through the night air. Eager to get back to bed, Link made his way through the small village. Then Link saw the last person he wanted to see, Mido.
"If it isn't loser boy. Where's your fairy? Oh that's right, she left you. Well that's because you aren't a true Kokiri eh Link? Don't know how to treat a fairy so she ran away." Mido said smirking the whole time. Link barely even heard the stuffed up peacock as he wobbled on his feet.
"Go away Mido. I'm too tired to be bullied by you right now. I just want to go to my hut and sleep the next week or two away." Link shuffled past a shocked Mido with less energy than usual and walked towards the ladder. Link made it up the long climb and stumbled into the small hut. Link walked over to his bed and passed out instantly on the soft cover. Mido watched Link as he went.
'I don't know what Saria sees in that wimp! Too tired to even stand up let alone do anything helpful around here. We haven't seen much of him for close to a month after the Deku tree died and then that mysterious deku sprout comes from out of nowhere. When he finally does come back and can truly be called a Kokiri, he loses his fairy. Then he goes off for an expedition to find her and comes back almost four days later looking like he hadn't slept in a month. Without his fairy! What is going on around here?' As curious as he was, Mido knew it would have to wait until morning.
Morning
"Get up!" A voice incessantly growled at the sleeping figure. Link rolled onto his side with a moan. It was barely dawn out. Then Link remembered through his cloudy brain why he was awake so early.
"Navi?" Link asked half asleep. Link blinked his eyes twice. No it wasn't Navi but a fairy non-the less. "Who?"
"I'm called Cera. Get up! The deku sprout wants to talk to you!" Link sighed as he rolled out of bed and stretched. Last night was the only sleep he had since he left Termina. Link was tempted to sleep in the lost woods but decided against it since he didn't have Navi. "Come on! Let's get going!" Link stifled a yawn and sighed inwardly.
'This fairy acts more like Tatl than Navi. Oh well, I wonder what the deku sprout wants to see me for? I just got back anyways.' Link studied the small fairy; a slight pink glow, a pair of wings, just your average fairy. Then Link noticed that he was still wearing all the things he got in Termina. Link still had the 'altered' Kokiri sword, the mirror shield and all the masks and items.
"Wait just a minute, I want to lighten my load." Cera looked at Link strangely and gave her consent. Link went to the trunk at the end of his bed and opened it. Inside were his slingshot, boomerang, great fairy spells, nuts, Goron bracelet, Zora scales and other old items. Cera was surprised at how much he actually had in the chest and it was only half full!
'Let's see.' Link began to pull out various items, most of which were masks. 'I'll want to keep the bunny hood, the giants mask, the mask of truth, the stone mask, Deku mask, Zora mask, Goron mask….' Link's thoughts stopped when he took out the fierce deity mask. 'Just in case.' Link put the mask back in the slightly smaller space for a mask menu. Link put all the other masks in the trunk.
"What are all of those?" Cera asked looking at the great fairy mask from his shoulder. Link motioned for her to take flight and she did, hovering in the middle of the room. Link smiled at the fairy and shifted to take out the deku mask.
"Watch." Link slipped the mask over his face. Cera almost fainted when a bright flash enveloped Link and there stood a deku kid.
"Wha-wha-what? What did you do to Link you little shrub!!!!!" Cera screamed. Deku Link giggled and in a little voice answered her.
" It's me! It's just the mask. These are magical masks with powers to change your form or do other special things." Link said in his deku voice. Link took off the mask and returned to normal. "Not all of them change your forms though." Cera hovered for a few seconds.
"Wow." was her only comment. Link looked at his items menu. He wouldn't need the Goron bomb certificate anymore, where in Hyrule would he be able to buy it? Link put that in the chest and took out his boomerang.
'I might need this.' Link took another survey at what he might need and could do without. 'I might need my slingshot but I already have a hero's bow. I could take out my bombchu's and make room for it.'
"Ooooo!" Link sighed tiredly; Cera had found his great fairy spells. Link then remembered something; he could put all his extra equipment in with the rest of his masks! There were only eight of them anyway. Link then organized his item space.
'Mask's, fairy spells and hero's bow in one slot. My empty glass bottles and weapons in the other.' Link ruffled through his items again.
"Where did you get all this?" Cera asked excited to see such an array of weapons. Link smiled in memory of the temples and more trials that he had to go through to get his items.
"Oh here and there. Let's see. I have my masks, spells, bow, bombs, bottles, sword, mirror shield, deku shield…" Link stopped for a moment. "I'll take it anyway, just in case my shield gets stolen or something. …The black rose fairy sword, hookshot, boomerang, slingshot, lens of truth, deku sticks and nuts. That should be all of it." Link shut the chest and locked it.
"Wait! What's that? You didn't tell me what this is!" Link looked down to where Cera was pointing. Link absentmindedly put a protective hand over the instrument.
"That's the Ocarina of Time. Princess Zelda herself gave it to me. I really should give it back to her real soon. Well, time's a wasting. Let's go see the deku sprout." Cera's glow brightened a bit.
"You're right! We wasted enough time here. Let's go see the deku sprout." Cera snuggled into Link's hat and disappeared from view.
'Just like Navi.' Link thought sadly. 'I'll find you one day Navi. Just don't get into any trouble while I'm here.' Link, determined now, left his hut to the early morning sun.
"Link!" Link looked to the person that had called him and was surprised to see Saria there. "Link! The deku sprout wants to see you!" Link smiled warmly and climbed down his ladder.
"I know, that's where I'm headed right now." Link said as he walked up to Saria. Saria smiled warmly back at Link.
"Don't be gone too long! It's been way to quiet here for my taste. Want to go to the lost woods later and practice on our ocarina's?" Link nodded and was berated for it.
"Hey! Don't forget that I'm still up here you noodle head!" Link felt a tiny slap on the top of his head from Cera.
"Sorry." Link said quickly.
"There he is!" Link whirled to his left and found Mido with a few lackeys coming his way.
'What now?' Link moaned inwardly as he studied Mido's face. Mido was going to pick a fight. 'I don't have time for this.'
"Hello Mido. How are you today?" Saria greeted in her most casual tone. Mido stopped advancing when he saw the other Kokiri. "Something the matter?" Saria asked in a puzzled tone when she saw Mido's rage.
"Yes." Mido growled in Link's direction. "I have just heard that the deku sprout wants to talk to Mr. No Fairy over there." Saria looked puzzled.
"Why should that bother you? Link will probably be talking to the sprout about recent events. We don't know a lot that happens out of this forest you know." Saria turned back to Link. "That reminds me. Why are you back so early? I thought you weren't coming back without Navi?" Link looked embarrassed.
"I kinda got sidetracked and well, I needed a rest before I went looking again." Link said sheepishly. Mido clenched his hands into fists.
"That reminds me. Where is the Kokiri sword!?! You were only supposed to borrow it! Not trade it!" Mido yelled pointing at the sword strapped to Link's back.
"Oh! This?" Link pulled out the sword and the Kokiri around him gasped. "I merely found a way to make it sharper. Be grateful, it was very hard to do and expensive." Mido growled through clenched teeth.
"We have to be going now." Cera said jumping out of Link's hat. All the Kokiri there jumped back in surprise. "Come on Link. We've wasted even more time! We have to get going!" Link smiled at the fairy.
"Alright, lets go. Just climb into my hat and hang on." Cera gave Link a skeptical look. After Cera was under his hat, Link pulled out the bunny hood and put it on. Mido almost laughed out loud. Link looked ridiculous! Saria also choked on a bunch of giggles.
"That makes you look funny." Saria said through giggles. Link gave her a lopsided grin and then ran towards the deku sprout. The laughter stopped when they realized Link was going way too fast for a normal run.
"Whoa." Mido whispered as Link ran out of sight. With the bunny hood on, Link ran as quickly as he could towards the deku sprout. After all, they were late and this was the best way to get there quickly.
"Slow down!" Came a muffled, scared voice from under his hat ensemble. Link obliged because they were already there. Link pulled off the hood and Cera came out. "Now I know what you meant by 'not all of them change your form'. Warn me next time!"
'Funny, I thought I did.' Link dared not voice that opinion out loud. It must have been a fairy thing to scold until your ears hurt. Link was reminded of Tatl in that instant and shivered.
"Ah, young Link." The deku sprout acknowledged. Link timidly walked up to the sprout. It looked the same as always, short, small and woody. "It's good to see you. I see you're no worse for the ware after your battle in Termina." Link merely sighed at the news that the sprout knew about his adventure in Termina.
'Why am I not surprised?' Link sat down in front of the deku sprout. The deku sprout spoke slowly as if it was afraid of Links reaction to what it was about to say.
"Link, you will not find Navi in the hollows of the lost forest." The Deku sprout said in a serious tone. Link sat up straight.
'What? Navi's not in the lost forest?' Link sat shocked for a moment. 'Then where can she be? A fairy pond? No I doubt she would go there. Then-'
"Do you know where she is, deku sprout?" Link asked nervous. The sprout was silent for a moment.
"Yes. I know where Navi is. I do not know her exact location though. I do know that you will not like where she is." Link's mind began to panic.
"Is she in trouble? Does she need my help? Where is Navi?" Link fired out questions as he jumped to his feet in alarm.
"Let him speak!" Cera smacked Link on the head to get the youth to settle down. Link took a deep breath and sat back down again.
"Thou must listen to thy own story to comprehend Navi's peril." Taking note that the deku sprout's accent had changed, Link sat and listened to the story. "Thou wouldst not remember thy journey to the lost wood as a babe. Nor would thee remember thine caretaker. Thy caretaker brought thee to the forest to protect thine life from certain doom. The war that hath raged in the time of thine birth would have certainly caused thy death. To protect thee, thy caretaker spirited thee away from thine parents and thy home. Thy caretaker begged the deku tree to seal off the route of the warring ones and to keep thou protected. Thy seal from the warring ones held even in Ganondorf's rule, for he hath feared their power also. Thou hath come from the warring ones of Hyrule. Even though they art Hyrulians, they art the warring ones." Link let out a breath he didn't know he was holding in.
"Why are you telling me this? What does that have to do with Navi?" Link asked puzzled.
"Thou friend is in thine place of birth." Link stopped dead. Link's heart skipped a beat or two and he felt strange. Was it fear? The seal would stop him from going to Navi, he would never see his friend again. Link stood up.
"How can I get there?" Link almost demanded. The deku tree didn't answer for a few minutes.
"I can open the seal for you and only you. Beware! I can undo the seal but it will depend on you to restore the seal afterwards. Learn this song well and go through the seal at your leisure. Learn the song of the seal."

Link followed the song perfectly and an earthquake began. Green light flashed behind the decomposing husk of the deku tree and a tunnel suddenly appeared in the stone.
"The way is open now. Just play the song in reverse to close it again. Before you go, I have something to give you." A bright light flashed before Links eyes and he blinked twice before he could see what it was. A small pair of pendants appeared in front of Link. They were of a smooth stone and they sparkled a brilliance of blue and yellow. The yellow one was engraved with a picture of a tornado and the blue had a leaf picture engraved as well. The backsides had pictures too. The yellow had a dewdrop while the blue pendant had a small fire engraved in it. The two pendants were connected by a single piece of string. Link noted that while the pendants were blue and yellow, the string was unmistakably green.
"Thank you." Link said slipping the pendants over his head and safely into his tunic. Link bowed his head and ran off towards the tunnels entrance. To Link's surprise, Cera cut him off.
"I'm coming too!" Link looked at the fairy before him blankly.
"What? Why do you want to go with me?" Link squinted when Cera's fairy light began to flash brighter.
"I want to see the Hero of Time in action! I want to go on an adventure! This sounds like a lot of fun!" Link stood mute in shock.
"This isn't going to be fun! It's going to be dangerous! I'm going off to find my fairy partner remember?" Link said scoffing at the idea that this would be any type of fun. "Besides, don't you have a partner already?" Link kicked himself mentally for asking the question because the fairy's glow went down a bit signaling that it was sad.
"No…" Link bit his tongue.
'I know I'm going to regret this.' Link took out his ocarina and began to play Epona's song. Epona ran to Link from the Kokiri entrance way and stopped in front of Link. Link quickly got on Epona and looked down at the fairy.
"Well? Are you coming or not?" Link asked in Cera's direction. Cera's fairy light went from a small glow to an excited burst of light.
"You mean I can go with you?" Cera asked in an excited voice. Link sighed loudly and nodded. "Yippie! We're going to have a great time! Just you wait and see!" Yep, he was definitely going to regret this...
