Chapter One: The Opening

Malon ran to the enterance of Lon Lon Ranch to see if he arrived yet. But no sign of him. He was Link of course. Handsome, courageous Link. Everytime she looked into his bright blues eyes, she got weak. She got butterflies in her stomach and weak in the knees. Her heart started to beat faster with every though of Link. She sighed in deep thought.

"Hello? Malon?"
"Huh? Oh, sorry Dad," she said, "I guess I spaced out."
"Its okay. While you're waiting for Link, why don't you help Ingo in the barn?"
"Okay."

Malon always dreaded working with Ingo. He was always gazing at her. He seemed to undress her with his eyes. And when he talked to her, those words... Of course, she could never tell her father. Ingo would do terrible things.

"Hey, my dad said to help you."
"Oh, okay..."

They worked in silence until she accidently bumped into Ingo.

"Oh, so that's how you like it."

Ingo grabbed her wrists and threw her again the wall. She tried to spit on him but he tightened his grip and then slapped her across the cheek. She fell to the ground as he let her go.

"And remember," he said grimly, "tell your father and..."

She then heard her father's voice calling for her after Ingo left. Wiping the tears from her eyes she ran to see him.
