Lynn hummed a soft up beat tune to her self while she put her hair up into a tight pony tail, winked at her self and then strode out the door and down the hall. She knocked on Links door and turned the knob gently. "He's probably still resting." She thought thinking of his injuries and all that went on last night. She stepped into his room. It smelled of soap mixed with the small scent of what seemed like forest. She let the scent fill her nose momentarily before glancing at the bed to see Link not there but coming out of the bathroom with a loose towel hanging around his hips. Her gaze immediately fell past the bandages to his contour lines and abs beaded with water before darting to his eyes and then to the floor. She bit her lip and chuckled a bit trying to draw his attention away from her frazzled state.

"S-sorry." She slightly stuttered and stepped back out of the room slamming the door accidently behind her. She pressed her back against the door still gnawing at her lip uncontrollably. Kai was heard closing his door and she flinched and looked in his direction. He analyzed her position and deep breathing before giving her a quizzical look.

"He-was changing." She stated blankly and turned to walk down the hall way. Kai clenched his fist for a second before changing his train of thought and rushing up towards her. He grabbed her by the waist and scooped her up into a spin from behind. He smiled as her shrill gasps and giggles filled the hallway.

Link came out fully dressed and equipped along with a green t-shirt, black pants and his gauntlets on as they were just a few steps away from his room.

"Race both of you to breakfast." Lynn cooed breaking out of Kai's embrace and bolting down the hall. Kai beckoned Link playfully and followed after Lynn. They raced down the hall way Link and Kai neck and neck just as they breezed past the opening to the dinning hall after Lynn.

They sat at three random chairs among the other several chairs lining the long table. They ate breakfast with light conversation and the occasional glancing up at one another.

Lynn was the first to get up and straightened her green slip. "I'm gonna go back to my room to get my weapons and stuff." She said walking towards the hall.

"We'll meet you outside in the front." Kai said stabbing an apple with his knife and taking a bite. Link finished his bread and leaned back in his chair letting out a quiet sigh.

"Why did she save you?" Kai asked suddenly in a cunning voice. Link glanced up from whatever he was staring at on table and looked to Kai momentarily before returning his gaze to the table.

"I seriously don't know, why, does it bug you?" Link questioned curiously. Kai rolled his eyes and got up from the table before stabbing a peach and taking a bite out of it before plopping it on his plate carelessly. Link tapped the table slightly noticing the ridiculous waste of food this man was producing in less then a minute.

"No, you do. But we can fix that cant we." Kai stated smirking a bit as Lynn came back into the entrance.

"WELL." She stated. The two men just let their mouths drop slightly in anticipation as if her clothing was slowly shedding off of her. Kai licked his lips and Link just stared. She had two arced glades strapped to her hips and small curved knife strapped to her right thigh. Her hands rested on her hips that filled out a pair of short black shorts with a small pocket on the front and a white belt. Her white long sleeve top hung loosely on her figure and drooped off of her shoulders.

"WELLLL we can go now! You guys have just been sitting there staring at the spot I was in for the whole time I was gone? Geeze you both must be friggin handicap." She grumbled and spun around impatiently.

Link gave another frustrated sigh as the Librarian turned down the last isle looking for anything under the name of Hyrule. "Let's just forget it." he said finally and put a hand on Lynn's shoulder. "I'd rather go somewhere to explore and run into Hyrule, I need some new scenery anyways." He stated.

They walked out into the copper lighted streets and looked into the setting sun for a moment. "Ssooo where do you wana go?" Lynn asked looking around for Kai. He had said he was going to run some errands around the city, visit his father at the palace and come back, but that had been more than 3 hours ago and she was getting impatient.

"I don't know, you tell me." Link replied carelessly. She could tell he was a bit frustrated and decided to choose somewhere relaxing.

"Hmmn" Lynn tapped her chin and grabbed Links hand leading him down a few streets and down a long set of dark stairs in an alley way. Links eyes widened in surprise slightly as he saw that it was a small sanctuary with a decent sized pool and a water fall. There was grass on the outer area as they walked in and sand around the pool.

Lynn sat down took off her flat boots and dipped her feet in the water. She let her head fall back to face him and cocked it sideways as she smiled at him.

"Coming to sit down?" She asked quietly. The moon was up now and it illuminated her face perfectly. Link sat down beside her and looked mindlessly at his reflection in the water.

"Why did you save me?" he questioned suddenly.

"You were going to sit up..They would have killed you, and you looked so different, fascinating, with those ears." She simply stated quietly smiling to herself.

Link didn't reply, he just looked at her to find she was looking at him. She could still see that there was a small disappointment in him, or something else, a deep sorrow of something that left scars untold in his eyes. She touched his face without hesitation and searched his eyes fearlessly.

"Tell me, about it." She said barely above a whisper. He grabbed her hand gently and pulled it down from his face trying to smile the surprise off, he felt as though he'd been exposed, as if she had just walked into his soul and opened up every wound he worked so hard to heal over. He wanted to forget all about his adventures of a hero back in Hyrule he wanted to forget all of the seemingly suicidal quests he had no choice but to go on.

"All of the bullshit." He replied quietly rather then questioned.

"What of it?" She asked.

"To so save Hyrule, be the great Hero of time." He reluctantly sighed running his hands through his hair trying to clear his mind.

"We don't have to talk about it, I can feel the reluctance in your voice." She replied. "Let me see you're wounds, are they completely healed?" She asked curiously trying to come off the subject. Without waiting for him to answer she reached under his t shirt and felt that the bandages were gone. She felt a small gash across his side and a scab lining it.

"You're race heals quickly?" She asked curiously and surprised.

"Yeah." He stated as she got closer. She removed his sword and shield and pulled up his shirt half way to examine the wound. She traced her finger along a long thick scar on his lower back traveling up all the way to his shoulder. Her eyes widened with fear when she caught a feeling of dread that sent shivers up her spine and made the hairs on the back of her neck stand up. She flinched and moved away slightly as unwanted tears welt up in her eyes. She shook her head to clear her mind.

"What…-im sorry, I don't know," She pulled her hand away but he grabbed it roughly.

"It's me. I'm sorry; I should've told you not to touch that. I have, a not so pleasant past." He said looking into her eyes gravely and trying to smile. She searched his eyes again and kept getting that same sense of dread and despair, as if he'd never seen a kind enough soul that would tend to his constant aching. She didn't know what came over her mind but she felt the urge to drown it out with whatever she could and she did.

Link shivered slightly and relaxed embracing the warmth of her mouth as it caressed his. He let his hand fall from her hand and comb through her hair momentarily before breaking the kiss.

There eyes Lingered as they parted and she got up after, offering him her hand. They walked back to the palace in silence in the darkness. The mutual understanding that they were not to speak of what went on was clear and silent on their lips.

Lynn sighed in frustration as she closed the door to her room behind her. How could she have betrayed Kai like that? She felt so stupid but so relaxed at the same time. Did that mean she didn't feel for him as much as she thought she had? She felt a tinge of hurt when she thought this and decided against her bold assumption. It would never happen again.

Link.. He had a distinct aura about him that made her want to explore him, discover what made him tick, what made him content. Maybe she just had the urge to be his friend, nothing more. That kiss had scared her, made her shake. She didn't like it. Or at least that's what she was telling herself.

She left the Palace and went outside towards the streets. She still hadn't seen Kai anywhere and was beginning to get worried. Maybe he had gone back to find her? She retraced her steps back to the small sanctuary in the dark cautiously. It wasn't like him to not come back to her. She quietly traveled halfway down the steps to hear small gasps. She immediately sped up thinking he might have been hurt or upset about something but stopped in mid step and reeled back holding onto the handle bar. She narrowed her eyes in pain and disgust as her eyes met with hers. Her arms tensed, hands gripping the handle bar as she stepped back hesitantly. He never looked back, and the girl on top of him never flinched, in fact, she smiled as she drew every shaky breath out of him with her body. She ran her fingers through his hair feverishly and kissed at his neck after locking eyes with Lynn.

Lynn crept back into the shadows and shook her head in denial. Or was it disgust, pity, karma..? She inhaled and exhaled with every quickened step she took, never looking back, aching to scream out in frustration.

She slammed the door in anger and threw herself against the bed recklessly and cried for about an hour before forcefully regaining her composer. "What goes around comes around…" She murmured blankly, eyes staring mindlessly at the moon. She got up stiffly, discarded her clothing onto the bed, and changed into her green night slip.

"Does it really?" A deep content voice whispered into her ear. She stood rigid as she pulled the strap to her gown up her shoulders. Kai wrapped his arms tightly around her waist and breathed in her voluptuous scent. She let her hair fall around her shoulders and face and breathed in as she turned to face him.

"It does…" She whispered blankly.
