Chapter 1: "The First Encounter"

Link wakes up, his vision blurry to the point he can't see a thing. He looks around moving his head to the left then right. Feeling a pain in his head he moves his arm up causing the chain holding it to clink quietly. At the sound Link gives off a whimper his ears ringing loudly from the sound of the chain, as his vision clears he notices that there is an object in the lower part of his vision he moves his head once more to each side the object following exactly. As Links vision clears completely and all his senses settle down he looks around the cell he is in,
he can smell moisture in the air along with a funky mossy smell. As his eyes fall to the chain holding him he notices something very wrong, in place of his arm is the leg and paw of a wolf. He rushes to a nearby puddle near where the chain is attachted to the wall as he looks into it and sees that he is now a wolf he gives off a loud scream a ear piercing howl coming from his throat instead. After trying to get his leg free from the chain Link finally gives up laying down to rest he gives off a small sigh before closing his eyes and drifting off to sleep.

Midna looks down at the chain holding the sleeping beast in front of her, as she surveys the room he is in she notices the chain is short enough for her to stand in a safe spot in the far corner. After teleporting into the cell she watches the sleeping wolf for a few moments before loudly announcing her presence.

"Hey wake up you mangy mutt!" she said loudly towards link who wakes up suddenly looking in her direction then growling at her.

"Hmm, it looks like you're in a bad situation there huh?" Upon hearing her question he stops growling and lowers his head looking at the chain then back to the black and white imp standing in the corner. He thinks to himself

"I wonder how I can communicate with her, i can only bark and whine like a dog."

Leaning forward towards Link, Midna gives a small devious smile as if she read his thoughts.
She puts her right index finger to her lips to cease his quiet whines which works.

"Shhh little puppy, just try talking as if you where your normal self I can understand you."

Link blinks a few times before opening his mouth to talk.

"Uhh, who are you?" he asks addressing the imp in the corner.

"Me? I am Midna and i am here to help you from your... predicament." she responds as she snaps her fingers a small black orb appearing on the chain a short distance from Links paw. The orb flashes before dissapearing the chain broken the cuff and a few chain links still dangling from Links front leg.c

"Thank you Midna, do you know how i can get out of here? Or why i am in the form of a wolf?" Asks Link as he walks in a circle around the cell trying to get used to his new body.

"Well." Midna says pausing a moment to think before continuing on. "If you wish i can help you leave here and as to your current form, that will be explained soon enough aswell."
Giving a devious smile Midna vanishes reappearing outside the cell bars her arms crossed over her chest.

Link nods twoards her before walking up to the bars and sniffing around before digging under a patch of soft dirt. Midna floats down gently landing on his back and pointing in a direction when Link looks up at her nodding as he runs where she pointed.
After a short run they come outside where a quiet soft melody is playing sounding as if it is far away even to Links highly sensitive ears. He pauses for a few minutes listening to the hypnotic sounds before getting slapped in the head by the imp on his back.

"Hey pay attention you mutt! You've gotta make your way across these rooftops to that tower over there." she says as she points in the direction of a tall tower a faint light shining through the window.

Looking up at her Link gives off a quiet growl before recieving another slap softer barely,
then before. He turns his attention to where she pointed giving a slight nod before taking off across the rooftops making slow progress being careful to not fall to his doom. When they finally reach the tower midna floats up into the window to help him leap up just as she did to help him cross a few gaps in the rooftops. Smiling to himself a bit Link squats down before jumping with all his might at the imp hoping to get some kind of revenge for her smacking him previously but as his paws connect with the stone of the windowsill she floats up above him landing hard on his back with a soft thud causing him to look back at her with a sharp glare before running inside the tower.

"Now go all the way to the top my little pet." Midna said directing link upwards.

"You know, my name is Link not pet, or mutt, or anything else so call me Link." he says sternly to her before starting up the steps.

"Whatever." She responds shrugging her shoulders before holding onto the back of his fur.

Upon reaching the top of the steps they push open a large door to see a cloaked figure standing by a window on the far side of the room. Crouching low Link slowly crawls twoards the person. As they get close the person speaks in a female voice addressing Midna before turning and seeing a wolf under the little imp. Midna addresses the cloaked figure as Princess Zelda, upon doing so she removes her hood looking at Link. After explaining to him why he is in the form and that in order for him to change back to normal he must help the spirits of light throughout the land of hyrule aswell as where they can find the three fused shadow pieces they need to defeat the evil man known only as Zant. Just before Midna is about to say something to the princess they hear a noise from outside the room, a guard is coming to check on Princess Zelda. Midna tells link to go out the nearby window, a quick look to the princess is all he does before effortlessly jumping out the window.

Once outside Midna runs over with Link what they must do.

"Well, it seems like we've got quite a journey ahead of us huh?" she asks sighing heavily.

"Seems that way to me, do you have any idea how we're supposed to get back to the world of light?" he inquires looking up to his back at the tiny imp seated there.

"Like this!" She exclaims before snapping her fingers Link only making a sound as they dissolve floating into a portal in the sky and appearing in the ordon spring.

"What was that?!" Link asks slightly scared looking at as much of his wolf body he can to make sure he is completely fine.

"A portal is all, we're still in the twilight though, we have to return the light to the spirit here aswell as find you some weapons for when you turn back into your normal human body." she explained before putting her small hand to her chin thinking about where to get a weapon. Knowing exactly where he can get a sword and shield Link takes off towards the village he was raised.
