A/N: First off, the cast of Zelda DOES NOT belong to me. Yeah, wheeee. I
got bored, as you may have seen, and I thought up of this!! Zora Link is my
favorite of his transformations. The reason: I find him hot. ^^ ((see? I
have no LIFE!!!!! So gimme cheese, yes?)) Also, the game doesn't have a
personality for our local hero, except from Tatl's comments, and so, I
based him off another hero that I love: Vash the Stampede from Trigun.
Nyahaha, another hot dude.

Adventures of Zora Link
One day, Link got bored and decided to go around as a Zora. This is his story.
Adventure One: Girls, girls, and more girls.
--------------------------
Stepping out of the Clock Tower on the 'First' day of his mission, he looked around the busy South Wing of Clocktown. He saw strange glances his way, several he couldn't perceive the meaning. Shrugging, he supposed not many Zoras come around here. Link felt his stomach growl. Time traveling takes a lot out of him. He heads for one of the stands in the area, the one where they sell snacks. A girl was buying a bag of some bubbly-looking yellow clusters. Wondering what they were, he decided to ask.
"Excuse me, miss?"
"Ye-um...yes?" her face turned reddish as she looked at him.
"What are those?" he said, trying to ignore the fact that he's only wearing a green skirt....a rather short one at that.
"Huh? Oh....um....." she stuttered, her face getting redder as she looked away.
"They're popcorn. They just recently arrived at Clocktown. They're good, take my word for it," said the seller. She also looked at him in the same manner as the girl.
"Ah, I'll take a bag," Link said as he mused at the fact that even though it's not suppose to, things change every so often when he returns from 3 days later. Confusing.
"That'll be 5 rupees, cutie," she winked as she handed him a warm bag of popcorn. Blinking, Link just nodded and smiled. He popped one in his mouth as he walked away. Finding his tongue fancy this popcorn, he sat on a crate and began to plan the next 3 days.
Maybe I'll go visit Anju or something...she's a nice person. I wish I could just get this moon business over with so she can have her wedding....it's so sad.... He can't think of much to do. Already got the Couple's Mask, actually, he already got all the masks. He wonders how he can carry them all. He asked Tatl once, but she has no clue either. Sighing, he leaned back onto the wall. Navi would've known, she knows everything...sorta. He looked up at the huge clock tower, and saw it was 7:23.
"The Inn should be open by the time I get there...." he mumbled to himself. Tatl popped out of ...somewhere behind his head.
"What are you gonna do now? You've helped Anju and Kafei already," she paused. "Don't tell me...you've fallen for Anju!"
"No! Of course not, nothing like that, you floating ball of ...pink light??" he hid a smile. That always sets her off.
"I am NOT pink!! It's a light shade of fuchsia," pouting, she flew back into her hiding place behind his head. He got up and headed for the East Wing.
--------------------------
Whistling "Zelda's Lullaby", one of his favorite songs, he passed by a dark- haired girl holding grocery bags. Strange, he didn't recognize her. She stared at him openly as he walked by the Treasure Chest Game shop. Blinking, she quickly came up with a scheme. She pretended to trip, dropping her bags.
"Nooo...." she yelped as she kneeled by her fallen goods, waiting for the Zora to come to her rescue. She waited. And waited. And waited. Finally, someone tapped her on the shoulder. Looking up with her best damsel-in- distressed face, she looked into the concerned eye of a boy.
"You OK lady? You've been like that for a long time. Is it because you have problems?" he said, becoming excited, bouncing up and down slightly. "If you do, you can tell me. We Bombers-"
"Go away, brat, I'm fine," she watched as he walked away, with a slightly hurt face. Those brats are annoying. She looked over her shoulder, peeved. The Zora is halfway to the Stock Pot Inn, whistling away that strange song of his. She grabbed a can of preserved corn kernels and through at his head with deadly accuracy.
"YAAAHHHH!!!" she blinked with surprised as he fell over forwards, screeching. She expected him to duck or dodge it with a body of his caliber. Her superb acting skills kicked in as the Zora looked at her with beads of tears in his eyes. She ran up to him.
"Oh my gosh! Are you alright, sir? I'm soooo sorry. It slipped out of my hand and-." she swore inwardly at herself. That was one of the worst lies she told.
"It's alright, Miss...," Link stood, rubbing the back of his head fin, feeling a bump rising. He smiled. "Let me help you."
"Huh? Uh...ok, Thank you," she headed back to her strewn groceries in a daze. She also didn't suspect him to be so damn gullible!
Once finished with the task, he looked at the watch the Mask Seller gave him. 8:05. Returning his gaze to the girl again, he found her giving him one of those looks he had before.
"Er, I gotta go," Link began to edge towards the Inn.
"Really?" disappointed, she took a step towards him. "What's your name, Zora?"
"My name is Li-ow!" he winced as Tatl kicked him.
"Don't tell her your real name, idiot!!" she hissed into his ear.
"What's wrong?" the girl asked.
"N-nothing, that bruise is starting to smart, hehe....um....my name is....Mikau."
"Mikau? What a strange name. Anyways, I'm Yumei, but you may call me Yumi..." she got a little closer again. He began to panic. No one has ever stood that close to him before, except when Cremia hugged him.....
"Ok, then...bye!" he ran off towards the Inn. Yumei stuck out her lower lip as she watches him enter the inn. Smiling, her eyes gave a glint of mischief.
"Shy guy...I like shy guys....teehee! I'll have you wrapped around my little finger in no time, my Mickey," she disappeared into the Treasure Chest Game Shop, chuckling to her self.
-----------------------
Sinking into the seats of the lobby, he tried to catch up with his breath. He'll never get use to girls like her. Zelda, Cremia, Anju, and those girls he can cope with.
"Sheesh!! What a flirty girl! Reminds me of the receptionist at the Mayor's office..." Tatl came out from behind, landing on the arm rest.
"I don't understand them...."
"Of course not. You're a kid in a guitarist's body."
"It's not THAT I don't understand. I've been an adult before!" Link protested as he sat up, as if to look more mature.
"Yeah, and I'm the queen of the miniature cows."
"Really?"
"No, stupid. I was just sarcastic..."
"...so was I..."
"...whatever. So, why did you come here again?"
"Oh yeah..." he stood, noticing Gorman giving him a weird look. Why do the Gormans look like Ingo? Hell, why do most of the people here look like the people in Hyule? Must be related or something... he went over to the counter, where Anju stood behind.
"Welcome to the Stock Pot Inn...um, do you have a reservation?"
"Yes."
"Oh, good....Mr. Link?" Link nodded. She continued. "You're room's the Knife Chamber, and here's your key. Enjoy your stay!"
"Thanks, Anju," he began off to collect some rupees.
"Wait."
"Huh? What is it?"
"Um, I feel like this happened before....de JA vu, maybe...but have I met you before?"
"Maybe," surprised, he was starting to rub off on these people the more he 'restarts' their memory.
"Hmm...Oh well," sadness flashed in her face, but she quickly perked up. "Please, relax, Mr. Link."
"Please, just call me Link."
"Alright." Smiling, Link went up stairs, got that silver rupee the previous owner had left (that's one thing that will never change), and stepped outside.
"Hey, watch it!" cried one of the Rosa sisters.
"Sorry, sorry," he sidestepped towards the stairs, trying to escape the scowl the girl was giving him.
"Watch out for the-." Tatl tinkled, but was too late. Like the lovable klutz he is, he fell down the stairs, landing on the bottom with a crash. The Rosa sister snickered.
"Dumb Zora...." she turned and continued her thinking, ignoring the glare from Tatl. The Faery flew down to link and perched on his nose. She swore she could've seen swirls in his eyes. She heard a gasp, and then footsteps. She turned to find Anju running towards them, concerned. Drifting off, Tatl watched from a distant.
"Uhh~hhhh....." that was Link.
"Link! Are you alright?" Anju kneeled beside him.
"Yeah...." he sat up quickly, straightening his skirt....damn skirt. "I've been in worse situations."
"I guess," she stood, holding out a hand to help him up. He took her hand and got up.
"Thanks."
"No problem. Um, Link? Are you busy?"
"No.....why?"
"Well, I happen to be free this hour, my mother's taking over for me, and I also need some quick cash...." she trailed off. "Um, do you want to play poker?"
"Poker?" He blinked. That REALLY surprised him.
"Yeah, it's the only card game I know. But if you're busy, it's ok...."
"Sure, I'll play."
"Great! Come one, we'll play in you're room," she started upstairs.
"MY room? Why?" he followed.
"Because if my mom finds me gambling, she'll become a monster, I swear."
"A-alright."
------------------------
They sat on the opposite sides of the table, each one concentrating on their cards. Tatl sat on one of the bed, watching with amusement. No matter how hard he concentrates, Link has yet won one game since they began. The 100 rupees began to disappear from his wallet. Giving her his last rupees, he sighed, sadden at his sudden lost of mullah.
"That's it? Come on, it's only 1:30. I still have 30 minutes left."
"....oh, alright..." They played again. And again, he lost, round by round. Each round, he gave her items, and soon, he gave her his collar, his gloves, and his boots. To his surprise, the poker game had unofficially become a game of strip poker, and he's the one losing.
"Um, Anju?"
"Yeah?"
"I swear, I won't take off my...my..." he searched for a word that sounds better than 'skirt'. "...my kilt."
"Come on, be a good sport, still got ten minutes left."
"Damn, Anju, I'd never thought of you like this," he curled up.
"What?"
"What about Kafei???" he peered at her. She gasped.
"How did you....well, of course I love him...it's just that...it hurts to....I'm trying to take my mind off the fact that...." she looked away, with the words GUILT plastered onto her face. Instantly, Link felt sorry.
"Ok, ok, we'll play another game, but as long as you don't cry."
"Ok..." she sniffed.
"But I still won't take my kilt off." he crossed his arms, flickering out his wrist fins stubbornly. A giggling Tatl flew over to Anju, and whispered into her ear. A small smile played on the inn keeper's lips.
"Ok, you don't have to. Instead, you'll have to do what I tell you to do if you loose, agreed?"
"Huh?!" he glared daggers at the flying ball of pink light.
"It's either that, or off goes your skirt." Anju stifled a giggle.
"It's not a skirt!!" he felt his face burn. He knew he was blushing, even through this Zora flesh. He grumbled "Fine...I'll do what you say..."
"It's settled then."
The final poker game started.
