A/N: Hey guys! Thanks for all the reviews!
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the following characters; Craimer and Seinfeld belong to ABC and the remaining belong to Nintendo.
Flock o' Seagulls : Thanks for reviewing on my last chapter! It always makes me happy to read what other people think about my stories. Luv ya bunches! BTW, I luv the name. It's so perfectly random!Lady Shadowcat : Thanks to you, too, for reviewing. I have most definately took a log time to think about what you said about the time difference, which is why I took so long to review. Unfortunately, I know next to nothing about science and next to everything about magic. Can you give me some ideas for the infection of the wound, that would be great. Again, I really appreciate the feedback.
Uli's POV
I jumped up and ushered Fado into the next room, praying to Ordonna that Link would survive. I need Link to survive this. If he didn't, I didn't know what I'd do.
We laid him down on the bed and I stared in his face. A strong hand landed on my right shoulder. "It'll be all right, I'm gonna go get Rusl so that we can get him patched up, okay?" Fado's voice came warm and welcome, yet rough and familiar as always. I simply nodded.
Rusl's POV
I was down at the spring, training, when I heard pounding feet on the path.
"Yo! Bud!" Fado's voice came distressed and out of breath. I wondered what the hell could possibly have happened to put him in such a state. The last time he'd been like this was when the children went missing and Link left.
The whole thing really hadn't gone back to normal after that. For the first roughly year and half, Link was withdrawn and jumpy. I'd done my best to help him out, but finally decided that it was something he needed to get over with himself. For another six months after that, he was still going to Hyrule Castle Town on frequent occasion to see the queen and attend to stately buisness.
Two other changes had taken place as well. The first was my son, Colin. I'd always hoped that he'd take a liking to swordplay, though he never had. Always wishing and reintroducing it to him, he never found a liking in it until the whole catastrophy.
Also, He was much braver when speaking and playing with his peers. Colin had always shied away from the other village children and never really took part in what was happening in their games. Always stand to the side and looking on from the sidelines. Recently, though, he'd taken part and even led a few games himself.
The second change was Link and Ilia's love. It had always been obvious that the two would someday grow up and fall in love with each other and everybody noticed it, except for the two of them.
Until they came back home.
Now, they were really hitting it off and we were just waiting for that proposal. The entire village could see it coming, and we were all just waiting patiently.
Finally, for the past three years, everything has been perfect. Between Link and Ilia and Colin's new attitude, everything seemed perfect. Only one thing was wrong. Link had several wounds that hadn't quite healed. And that one on his arm was getting quite dangerous to his health.
Though I was relieved of the promise Link had made to my wife only that morning.
I thought all of this over in a fraction of a second.
Just then, Fado came bounding around the corner (the perfect Craimer, if you ever watch Seinfeld, though Rusl doesn't know that). "Rusl! Hurry, come on! He gotta get back to the village! Link's sick. Uli's watching him at your place!" Oh, dear goddesses. Please allow him to survive.
"I'm coming." And like hell, I was. My sword was sheathed and I was running like wild man before I knew what was going on. I don't think I've
run so fast in my life.
A/N: Sorry this one was so short. I just needed to write about the past in this one. Sorry. Anyway, I'm not posting the next chapter until I get at least one review. Thanks!
