The Book of Link

Part 1- Link's Secret and Tetra's Plan

He would always be a mystery to her. Yes, that little boy in green was quite the enigma, except one thing… he wasn't exactly a boy anymore.

You see, Tetra had known Link since they were both 10. And now, 8 years later, she had learned much about him, yet he still managed to confuse her every day. It seemed as if the more that was revealed about him, the less she would understand him. He was very strange. For one, he could be incredibly dense (especially when it came to love), but he was also very compassionate and genuine, and one of the few truly caring people that Tetra had ever met. Tetra attributed that fact to him being the chosen Hero of Winds; he didn't have the time to focus on relationships since he had been

destined to save the world. Then again, Tetra herself was a pirate captain, so she wasn't very experienced in that department either. Her reasoning was, however, that she was a girl, thus making her by default superior to Link in that aspect. And since Link had already defeated Ganon and completed their quest, she had promised to herself to educate him in the ways of love…especially since Link had grown to be extremelyhandsome. He had filled out with years of sailing as a pirate and monster fighting experience, and while his blonde hair was still wildly messy, his face had matured.

Good thing he was still sailing with her most of the time, or else the ladies would be all over him. She'd have to keep him to herself. Goddesses, he was such a delicious hunk of a man…Not that she would ever admit it. Tetra mentally slapped herself. Dammit, you're getting carried away here! Fighting off her hormones, she concentrated on the task at hand. It turns out that Link had a secret, and

Tetra simply wanted to find out what it was. She had first noticed it a couple of years ago... The thing is, Link would sometimes, maybe once a week or two at any given time, observe her, sometimes intently, sometimes just stealing glances at her. Not peeping in the shower or anything like that, no, she would have stabbed him for that, despite his physical attractiveness. No, he would just stare at

her from time to time, and it had her bewildered. Was it a crush or something? Well, I know Link has feelings for me... What could he be thinking? What I would give to know... At first, she kept silent about it, thinking nothing about it, trying to not let it bother her. She even forgot about it for a few months. Doesn't seem like much of a secret, right? No, not at all. Things only got interesting when on one particularly boring day, Tetra had been walking around below decks and wandered into Link's cabin… and found a large black book. She had only seen it on occasion, but had noticed Link would often spend a large amount of time in his cabin alone, aloof to outside distractions. She still vividly remembered the moment of discovery.

FLASHBACK

It had been another uneventful day. It was summer in the Great Sea, and it was beautiful outside. It was sunny; there was not a cloud in the sky, yet the air was still quite cool. Tetra and her crew had just left Outset, where Link had visited his family for a week. The group welcomed the break, taking the time to relax and enjoy themselves, and they were refreshed as they continued their journey to find and establish a new Hyrule. Because of this, everyone was at ease and eagerly did their work, and there was not even the occasional ruckus or argument that came with being on a pirate ship.

Tetra looked up at the azure that made up the perfect midsummer sky. A large flock of seagulls flew overhead. It was very peaceful, and Tetra smiled. All was well. After admiring the perfect day for a while, she got bored and decided to check on the others. Every person was making himself busy by doing their assigned jobs. The only one missing was Link. She went below decks and looked for him, but he was not in his room. However, his door was open, and as she peered inside, something in his hammock caught her eye. Tetra walked over and examined it.

'Hmm… I wonder what's this book of Link's? I've only seen it once or twice… Huh, maybe it's like, a diary or something? I've noticed him looking at me recently, could it have something to do with me? He's also been spending a lot of time in his room of late…huh…what could a teenage boy be doing alone in his room for such a long time?' Naughty images came to Tetra's mind. Her face reddened. 'No, it couldn't be that, could it? …Well, let's just find out,' Tetra had just reached for the book when Link came hurtling of nowhere, grabbing the book and holding it protectively.

"NOOOO! Tetra, don't touch this! It's mine!"

"I know it's yours, Link, but I want to know what's in it!"

"I can't tell you, Tetra, it's a secret!"

"What do you have in there that you're so afraid of me seeing!"

"It's nothing!"

"C'mon, tell me, dammit! I'm the captain of this ship, so listen to me!"

"I won't tell you!"

"Link, if you don't tell me, I'll make you walk the plank!"

"I still won't show you what's in my precious book!"

Eventually, a frustrated Tetra conceded and gave Link extra work to do for his stubbornness. His reluctance to share the contents of the book made her even more determined to find out.

'Dammit, I will get to know what's in that book…someday…'

END FLASHBACK

Since that incident, every so often she would bother Link about his secret, and each time she ended up with the same result- he would refuse to tell her, and she would punish him by giving him more chores to do. Eventually, it had nagged her conscience so much that she just had to know what his secret was. And today was the day that the secret will finally be revealed.Tetra was just giddy in anticipation; she had hatched the perfect plan the night before to expose what had bugged her for so long.

Tetra knew she was good-looking. In fact, saying that she was just "good-looking" was an understatement. Like Link, she had matured greatly since their travels together began. She had ditched the old blue and red top and shorts for now a more revealing, low-cut striped shirt and a knee length black skirt. She had grown out her hair longer and now wore it down, and the red

bandanna that was previously around her neck now adorned her head. In addition to a wardrobe change, her body had grown as well. She had gotten taller (but was still a good four inches shorter than Link), and in losing some of her baby fat she had gained curves in all the right places. To make a long story short, she was what you would describe as drop-dead gorgeous. However, she was incredibly cunning while Link remained quite foolish and naïve. Even though Link was a complete blockhead, Tetra knew he still had the urges and the hormones of an 18-year old. Therefore, Plan Seduction would quickly be put into action.

After lunch, Tetra decided to make a move. She had followed Link back into his room, and quickly pounced.

"Hey, Link, what's up?" Tetra asked.

"Oh, nothing much," an unsuspecting Link replied.

Now was the time!

Tetra quickly got Link's attention. She took off her skirt and smiled seductively. Now she definitely had his attention. "Oh Link, I got a new thong last time we visited Windfall Island, how do I look?" She turned around to give Link a nice view.

Link, to say the least, almost had a heart attack. Mouth agape and blood running out of his nose, Link managed to stammer, "U-uh, Tetra, you look f-fine…"

Tetra sauntered over and straddled Link, and lifted his chin with a finger so that he was looking right into her sapphire eyes. She removed her shirt.

"Like what you see?" Link nodded dumbly. She stroked his cheek gently and from his face could tell that she had him in the palm of her hand.

Tetra purred. "So…tell me, Link…" She started.

Meanwhile, Link had been very shocked at Tetra's sudden advances, but decided to suck it up and make a move of his own, since he had harbored strong feelings for his captain for years.

Tetra could now see the lust in Link's eyes. He looks so yummy right now… I just want to rip his clothesoff… Wait, Tetra, you're getting carried away again! Stick with the game plan!She steadied herself and prepared to seduce Link into telling her his secret.

What she wasn't expecting was for Link to take action himself. With a grunt, he flipped himself over so that now he was on top, and crashed his lips to hers. Tetra moaned, and their hands roamed each other's bodies as they made out. It was quite obvious at that moment, that along with her rational train of thought, Plan Seduction had gone right out the window. It was bittersweet failure.

A few hours later…

Tetra slowly came to. Ugh… where am I? Did my plan work? Why am I so sore? And what's this warm lump next to me?

It took her a few moments for it to dawn on her what had happened. She was butt naked, and the "warm lump" next to her that was peacefully snoring happened to be Link. Apparently, she had gotten carried away and instead of finding out his secret, she ended up having sex with him. DAMMIT! DAMN LINK AND HIS DAMN GOOD LOOKS. WHY DOES HE HAVE TO BE SO DAMN SEXY! IF IT WEREN'T FOR HIS DAMN HOTNESS MY DAMN PLAN WOULD'VE WORKED-

Tetra squeaked as her mental tirade was interrupted by Link grabbing her and hugging her close. "Mmm…Tetra…I love you…" she could hear him mumble in his sleep. Tetra blushed and her expression softened. Well,maybe this isn't too bad...Link is such a sweetheart…I swear, his cuteness is the only thing that keeps me from stabbing him for being such an idiot.Tetra grinned deviously and nuzzled into his chest.I'llenjoy this while I can, but I swear, Plan B will work not fail...
