This story will follow the adventures of Link and Midna's wedding-to-come. :3
You may also recognize Mr. Triforce (aka Tip, Kuro or Dark Pit) from the other story. Same person. But this story is not associated with Red Death. Two randomly different stories. Okie dokey?


Chapter 1 ~ Mr. Triforce

It was a beautiful day. The sky was filled with puffy clouds and the sun was shining brighter than it had been in days. All the people in Castle Town seemed to be filled with joy as the remodeled Malo's Mart had once again been re-opened.
Link however was not pleased. He wasn't a fan of the boy himself, and not to mention, he sometimes overpriced things. He didn't need to be more broke than he was going to become. You see, Link had a good reason to be strolling the cobble stone streets, searching for a place with decent jewelry...and perhaps some type of affordable price.
He was going to buy Midna's ring today and with luck propose to her.

"Good evening sir," a voice broke in. "Can I interest you in any of this fine fruit? Some hot spring water perhaps?"
Link turned around. Eyeing the small old man and the rather large Goron, he simply shook his head.
He then made his way over to another nearby cart filled with what appeared to be plates and goblets.
I need a ring... Link thought, a frown forming upon his face.
It was at that moment that a young man approached him. Poking Link in the shoulder, he welcomed him with a wide grin.
"Jewelry, hats, weapons, disguises, flowers, paint, puppies—"
"What?" Link interrupted.

"We have it all!" the fellow finished. "Just head on over to Triforce's Top of the Pick!"
Link looked confused. Excitedly the stranger pointed to the opposite direction, meanwhile tugging on Link's sleeve.
"Follow me?" he suggested. "It's a new store...only few seem to know about it."
Curious, Link followed. It was about a two minute walk until across from Agatha's place.
Link followed the figure inside, not sure of what to expect.
"How long has this place been here?" Link asked.
"Since yesterday."
"Ah." Link folded his arms, glancing at the shelves filled with a wide variety of strange top hats. "Do you happen to have any rings?"
"Of course!"
Link followed him once again, this time to the back of the store. On display was a strange collection of jewelry, along with a few collectible plates.
Staring into the glass, Link pressed a finger, pointing to the first one that caught his eye.
"That one," Link said, "how much is it?"
"Hmm..."
Link raised a brow, thinking over how this guy would probably try to rip him off.
"Because I like you, and you're my first customer," he said, "I'll give you a discounted price of about..."

"...500 rupees."
Link's face fell a bit. In his wallet, he only had 498. "Are you willing to haggle?"
"The price is final!" he snapped.
Link bit his lip. Sorting through his pockets he pulled out a rock, a piece of grass and a small water bomb.
"Umm 498...plus this?" Link gave an awkward smile.
The merchant paused, as if thinking about it. About a minute later, he had quickly slid the bomb closer to himself. "Fork it over," he commanded.
Link poured out his wallet onto the counter. All a hard work's couple weeks of rupee collecting was going all to this. He was proud of himself for that much.
After hoarding all the money and placing it...somewhere, the merchant opened the case with a purple key. Gently he took out the ring and packaged it in a nice gift box, complete with a nice red bow on top.

He was about to hand it over, when a thought struck him. "Oh, I almost forgot!"
As he disappeared into the back, Link waited impatiently.
Five minutes had passed and he arrived with a rather large box, marked with a Triforce cartoon that somehow reminded Link of the Mr. Peanut guy.
He slammed it onto the counter along with the ring box and smiled at the blonde elf.
"Thank you and have a nice day!"
"Uhh..." Link was almost lost for words. "Is the box for...me?"

"Yes, please take it. It's filled with souvenirs courtesy of Mr. Triforce himself!"
"Who?"
"Mr. Triforce."
"Who is that?"
"Me of course!" he said delightfully.
It was then that Link faked a smile, carrying his packages on the way out.
Who was that guy and what was that shop?
