GDL: Yes, I'm back. I read the Ocarina of Time manga online ("But it's not coming out 'til October!" everyone whines.), because someone on a Harvest Moon site I go to gave me a link to a site, where people who were really bored translated it into English. From reading that, it actually gave me hope that my dreams actually could come true. That, and that odd chapter of Guardians of the Night where everything that happened in that chapter came true. Anyway, it also really made me want to continue one of my fan fictions, so I decided I'd continue this one, since it only has one chapter, and my co-writer for Guardians of the Night isn't on.
THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO REVIEWED AND FAVORITED THIS STORY SO FAR.
Disclaimer: I don't own the Legend of Zelda or any of its characters. All I own is Karina.

Chapter 1: Through the Inside of a Mustached Tree
"Maybe the Great Deku Tree can read your mind or has precognition or something. That's how he knew about me…"
'You may be right, Karina. I wouldn't put it passed the guardian of the forest.'
We made our way through the inside of the tree. For some reason, everything was exactly the same. Link couldn't remember much, so it was a good thing that I was there. Link got a slingshot in the one room right after he got the map.
"You know, it's a good thing I'm not controlling you right now."
'Why do you say that?'
"…Because, I'd have a lot of, "FUN" with that slingshot, if you know what I mean."
'I don't know what you mean, and I don't think I want to know what you mean.'
Link shot down the ladder, and we got out of the room. He went into the last room on that floor and got the compass. He then went to the cliff and destroyed the skulltula in the way.
"Okay, I'm just going to close my eyes now."
'Are you afraid of heights?'
"No, I just have a terrible fear of falling, even though I fell down the steps on Earth about 10 times in my lifetime. The first time I fell down the stairs being the reason that I have a fear of falling."
Link nodded, and he jumped off the cliff, which punctured the web and made him fall through the hole.
"God, this dungeon's annoying."
'You can say that again.'
He made his way through the last few rooms before the boss. This took him to another web. He took a deku stick, lit it, and burned the web that was below his feet. He fell into a pool of water, where 3 dekus lived. He beat them in 2-3-1 fashion. ("23 is number one, lawlz!") The deku said that you have to shoot their, "queenie" in the eye.
We walked through the door, and it closed behind us. There was a loud rustling sound coming from the darkness of the room.
"Hey Link, can I take over?"
'Why?'
"Because I can destroy this boss in less than a minute."
'Fine.'
I took over and walked into the room. I looked up at the ceiling and saw Ghoma's yellow and red eye. She dropped to the floor. I shot her in the eye twice until her eye turned red. I hit her with a deku stick and she climbed onto the ceiling. I shot her down quickly and hit her with a deku stick. She disintegrated after that. What remained was a small beetle, which was the true form of the former queen. I sighed and gave control back to Link.
'That was fast.'
"Told you so."
Link grabbed the heart container and went into the blue light. We dropped down in front of the Great Deku Tree.
He said, "Well done. Now, I have much to tell ye. Will thy brave ones listen?"
Link nodded.
He told of the goddesses and how Ganondorf put the death curse upon him. I didn't listen much, but that was the gist of it. He then said something that to me was quite curious,
"Ganon has become more powerful than ye know, brave ones. Because of this, new chosen ones must come to power in due time. It is linked to the destiny of the young one named Karina."
He then told Link about the jewel that Ganondorf wanted so much and the princess of destiny. He gave Link the Kokiri Emerald.
"Sadly, my time in this world has grown short. I've told you of such matters, so do not mourn for me. Farewell Link…I…entreat…ye."
He was dead after that. I could feel the pain that Link was enduring at that time. I couldn't even comprehend having to see someone you care about so much die twice.
"C'mon Link. No use standing here brooding over his death. Let's get out of here!"
Link nodded and ran away from the Great Deku Tree's Meadow. Mido stood in front of our path.
He said, "Did the Great Deku Tre…die?! Link, it's all your fault! How dare you?!"
I took over Link again.
I replied, "Go eat shit, Mido," and walked off.
When I got to the bridge, I allowed Link to take over. Saria was waiting. Link turned around and walked towards Saria.
She asked, "You're leaving, aren't you?"
Link nodded.
She replied, "I knew you'd leave, because you're different from me and my friends. Take this with you, Link. I hope when you play it, you'll remember me and come back to the forest."
Link took the Ocarina. Instead of just running off like in the game, he hugged her, the he ran off. Somehow, I knew it was going to be a long journey.
GDL: And that's the end of another chapter. I really did beat Ghoma in less than a minute. I also beat the inside of the GDT in less than 10 minutes. Anyway, I hope the Great Deku Tree shed a little bit of light on what's going on. Link didn't ask any questions because he was to startled about everything that was going on. Karina didn't ask any questions because she knew the Great Deku tree would say at least something, and he did. I suppose you'll just have to continue reading to find out who the new, "chosen ones" are. Anyway, R&R as you please. Seeya!
