"I'm Link. What's your name?" he said with a gentle smile.

"M-Meghan," I said. I can't shake the feeling that I know him from somewhere.

"Meghan..." he breathed. He glanced at my clothes and smirked. "You've got a weird outfit there."

I had short jeans and a white tank top which I complimented with a red plaid button-up shirt that I kept unbuttoned. And I...only had white socks on...

I blushed from embarrassment. I must look like a 3 year-old who forgot their shoes. Link noticed my red face and giggled.

"The monster forgot her shoes!" said Talo with a laugh.

"Don't call her that," said Beth smacking him across the head.

"So... where are you from?" asked Link, ignoring the two with raised eyebrows. I opened my mouth to speak but I quickly closed it.

Where was I from? I remember my room or at least I think its my room. Was I even living with someone? Family? Friends...? Did I even have those? I only remember my name and age. Is 'Meghan' actually my name? Why can't I remember?

"Umm...Meghan?" said Link, interrupting my thoughts.

"I don't remember," I nearly whispered.

"What?" asked Link, not having heard what I said.

"I can't remember!" I shouted, holding my head in my hands. I stared at the ground with tears in my eyes. My head hurt. Did I forget this?! Why can't I remember?!

The kids were all looking at each other, clearly surprised by my outburst. Link had a wide eyed look on his face.

"Amnesia," said Malo suddenly with narrowed eyes. Link turned to face him as if telling him to continue.

"Amnesia is a deficit in memory caused by brain damage, disease, or psychological trauma," Malo explained. Everyone gave Malo a confused look. He sighed, continuing. "Memory Loss."

"Oh, the thing that happened to Ilia once!" said Talo as if he found the answer to a riddle.

"Yes that thing..." replied Malo. Link put a hand on my shoulder.

"It's okay...your memory will come back!" said Link with a smile. "Until then, you can stay with us at the village."

I gave Link a warm smile. "Thanks," I said, wiping my tears.

"Follow me," he said, gesturing to his direction. I followed quietly behind him as he lead me to the village.

The village was beautiful. There were big green trees and pumpkin patches, which gave the village a pleasant decor. A small lake reflected the light everywhere, illuminating everything around it. The houses also gave a cozy atmosphere.

"Mayor Bo," called Link ,waving to a man. The man looked around his forties. He had a big grey mustache coming out of his nostrils and didn't have any hair, AKA being bald. His eyes were super small. He waved back to Link.

Link approached and stood in front of the Mayor. "Mayor, I want you to meet this girl, her name's Meghan."

I took a step towards the smiling man. The Mayor looked at my clothes then back at me."Hello Meghan, I'm this village's Mayor!" he smiled at me and extended his hand for a shake. I took it.

"Mayor, may I talk with you?" Link asked him. The Mayor just nodded as they both walked a little further and started whispering something. Before I could think, the Mayor had a look of shock on his face. He glanced over at me then at Link before they both returned and stood infront of me.

"You are welcome to stay in the village, my dear Meghan!" The Mayor spoke with a big grin. Link had the same grin on his face. I couldn't help but giggle a bit.

"I would be happy to!" I said.

"Ilia dear, come here!" Mayor Bo called. A girl my age came out of the house behind him a few seconds later. She had short, dirty blonde hair and beautiful green eyes.

"Yes father?" The girl, Ilia asked.

"This here is Meghan, and she'll be living with us for a spell. Show her to your room," he replied. With that, the Mayor left with Link.

"Hi Meghan, I'm Ilia!" Said Ilia when they left.

"Nice to meet you Ilia," I said to be polite.

Ilia laughed. "hehe, Come. I'll show you our room!"

We walked into the house as she lead me to 'our' room. Up the stairs, it had a single bed with two small pillows on it. She had a rug which was green with little details of white on it. there was a small closet against the wall and a desk as well. The room wasn't small but it wasn't big either. Just a simple, plain room fit for any teenaged girl.

"This is our room!" she said, doing little twirl. "Do you like it?"

"Yeah, I do!" I politely replied.

She opened her closet and started looking for something. "here," she said, pulling a dress out of the closet. "this should fit you!" She handed it to me.

"Oh I'm fine. My clothes aren't dirty or anything," I rejected.

"When you live in Ordan, dress like the Ordonians do!" Ilia commanded, pointing a finger in the air.

"Ok, guess I'll wear it."

It was a short sleeved baby blue maxi dress that stopped just above my ankle. The trim of it had lace and the neckline was a square shape. It also had a white cloth belt, which was tied into a bow at the back of the dress. I liked it.

"You look amazing!" gasped Ilia after I changed. She circled me, eyeing the dress.

"Thanks," I said. Ilia turned around and started looking through her closet again.

"Hmm...Oh, here it is!" she exclaimed as she pulled out a pair of brown leather sandals. "Here, wear this."

I took them from her hands and put them on one foot at a time as Ilia spoke. "There, now you look like a normal Ordonian!" she giggled.

She took my hand and looked me in the eye with a soft smile. "I'm sorry Meghan, I've got some work to do, so I have to leave now."

"Oh, okay! Thank you for the clothes!" I said gratefully with a smile.

"You're welcome," she turned around and walked out the door, waving to me as she left.

I looked out the window of her room. The sun was still out and it looked like it wasn't close to setting. Maybe I should take a look around the village. I walked down the stairs and exited the house, closing the door behind me.

The village looked really peaceful, and the lake was breath-taking. The water in it seemed so fresh and clean. I made my way to the edge of it and sat down by the end. I took my sandals off and hung my legs in the sparkling water. It felt so amazing as the water was cool and refreshing. It was just as if it washed all my worries away. I cupped some water in my hands and drank it.

While starring at the lake's waters, I spaced out thinking of how I got here and why...

Why?
