[Author's Note] Nothing much to say here, but I guess I'll try to explain something. You're probably wondering how Toon Link and Rika Furude even met, right? Well, I'm not exactly sure, but I do know that it has something to do with time, like some sort of time mess-up, or something. Anyway, I plan to make each chapter of this story very short, so don't expect long chapters, okay? By the way, Toon and Rika are both fourteen in this story; yeah, I know about Rika living for more than 100 years, but still. They are also an item, just for you to know. Okay, please enjoy! Well, I hope you like it! If you don't, I'm very sorry. I'm also very sorry about any typos and other writing errors.

(Chapter One – Pity for a Goby)

It has been months since Rika moved to Outset Island. She has adjusted to the island life quite well. Every day something new and exciting would happen, like going on an adventure for treasure, or flying on the backs of giant dragonflies. Today, Link bought a whole bunch of fishing equipment, and he was ready for hours and hours of fishing action. He walked over to the house that Rika was living in; she didn't live that far away from his Grandmother's house.

She opened the door and saw him standing there with a fishing pole in his hand, smiling as he said, "Hey there, Rika? How's my favorite blue haired friend doing today?"

"Hi, Link. I'm fine, thanks for asking," she retorted with a smile on her face. She noticed the pole in his hand, and then asked him, "You're about to go fishing, right?" His eyes widened when she said that.

"How in the world did you know? You sure are smart."

She could tell by his voice that he was just being silly. "I don't know, just a guess I suppose," laughed the girl.

He then started to shake the fishing pole as he asked her, "You want to come with me? It'd be boring if I fished by myself."

She nodded her head and answered with cheerfulness, "Sure, I would love to!"

"Cool! Meet me at the shore, okay?" After that being stated, he ran off. Rika then ran up the stairs and put on her green sandals, and then ran back down the stairs and then outside, now on her way to meet the green, clad hero of the wind. Her sandals matched the green dress she was wearing.

The purple eyed girl soon met up with the blond. "Oh, you're not taking your boat out to sea this time?" she asked.

He simply shook his head and replied, "Nope. This time, we're doing a little something different. We're fishing by the shore! Who needs a boat, right?" She gazed at his smiling face, trying her best not to complain about anything.

"Yeah, I guess you're right," she said to him, now sitting down in the sand. Link walked over to her and handed the girl a fishing rod, later sitting down next to her.

"Ready?" asked the boy, his eyes staring at her.

Rika turned her head and faced him, soon replying with that jovial voice of hers, "I sure am, nipah."

"That's what I want to hear!" Link yelled with a wannabe hearty voice, afterwards casting his line out in the water; Rika did the same thing after he did.

Link's little sister Aryll then walked over to them, chewing bubblegum awfully loud. "What are you two idiots up to today, huh?"

"Go away, Aryll, we're busy here," said the older brother, face looking mad.

"Nah, I think I'll stay right here for a while, that is if you don't mind," replied the young girl with a smirk on her face.

"Oh, we mind a great deal, right Rika?"

She shrugged her shoulders and responded with a bored sounding voice, "I really don't care. If she wants to be a brat, let her be a brat."

Aryll then kicked sand at the two and proclaimed, "Don't mind if I do!" Just then, a fellow female islander walked by.

"Hello, you guys," said the woman very nicely.

"Hi," replied both Link and Rika.

The pigtailed, blond girl bowed and happily asserted, "Hello, Miss! You look very lovely today!"

"Oh, thank you, Aryll. You're such a sweet child." The woman then walked away.

"Lovely and smelly," murmured Aryll with a wicked smile on her face. She may have seemed nice to most people, but that was just a front that she always put up, and only Link, Rika and Grandma knew that.

"You're so wrong, little sister," mumbled the swordsman.

"Yep, and I like it!" she shamelessly replied, spitting her gum out into the water.

Then suddenly, Rika started to get a nibble. "Hey, I'm getting something!" she shouted sounding surprised, pulling the rod back and hooking the fish.

Link scooted closer over to her and said, "Oh, awesome! Quick, Rika, reel it in!"

"What does it look like she's doing, you idiot!" Aryll rudely added in.

"It's a monster!" shouted the blue haired girl, struggling to reel it in.

"You can do it, Rika, believe in yourself!" Link yelled, trying to encourage her. Soon enough, she reeled it in, only to find a Hylian Goby on the hook, shaking around and gasping for air. Link looked disappointed, Rika had her left eyebrow raised up, and Aryll was just laughing at her.

"A goby… You had trouble catching a goby? Wow, way to go, loser! I hope you have fun slamming it around," said the warrior's younger sister as she walked away laughing.

Link then gave Rika a serious and dramatic look, soon explaining, "Well, at least you caught it. Besides, it is pretty big for a Hylian Goby. But the sad thing is that you do have to kill it."

"Why?" she asked him, her face looking sad.

"Because that's the rules around here, or at least I heard. People say that the gobies will grow too big and start eating up all the rest of the fish, so we got to kill it."

They then both looked at the fish, and then at each other, and then back at the fish, and then back at each other. "Nah," said the two, smiling at one another. Link then took the fish from off of the hook and threw it back into the sea.

"Let this be our little secret, okay?" said the green eyed swordsman.

"Mii, yeah, let's do that," replied the girl, her eyes closed.

Yeah, I know that Aryll is OOC, but that's just my version of her. Heck, I'm doing my version of ALL these characters, but sorry if you hate it. I hope someone out there will like this, though ^_^.
