Wow, someone actually liked it! Hee.

Lloyd: About twenty of them.

Me: What are you doing here?

Genis: We stopped by to annoy you.

Cheresea (OC from 'GrandKid'): Yeah, seeing as this story's the only other story you write

that you actually think is even close to 'Grandkid'.


Lloyd: Hey, what about 'Plot Twist'?

Me: Okay, that one too, but people dig this one so-

Cheresea: But my story is still the best:p

Genis: What? SAY THAT TO MY FACE!

Cheresea: I just did.

Lloyd:...Yeah, she did... O.o

Me: Can I please start the story now?

Disclaimer: I own nothing!

I walked into the room, it was dark, but...

"What's that-?" Navi shivered.

I felt a shiver up my spine, I looked up-

CRASH!

"HOLY MOTHER OF MANA!"

What IS that-?

"It's Queen Gohma!" Navi shrieked. "AIM FOR THE EYE!"

Gohma launched for me, I leapt into the air with my wings, heart pounding.

"What IS this thing-?"

"She's the parasite queen!" Navi shouted. "She's the one making the Deku Tree sick!"

"All right then..."

Gohma snatched at the air with her pincers, trying to snap at me. I avoided her onslaught and

dove in and slashed her eye. The parasite gave out a shriek, falling onto the ground. While she was

immobolized I slashed her a few more times, until she got up that is.

"AGH!"

She cut me! That feeble arachnid cut me!

"JUDGMENT!"

Gohma shrieked again, falling onto the ground. This time I stabbed her through the eye into her skull.

"You did it!" Navi chirped.

Gohma shrieked as it's body started to disenegrate into nothing, leaving a blue light.

"Step into the light Kratos!" Navi said.

"..."

I obeyed, apparently the light is like a warp pad.

I appeared outside of the Great Deku Tree...

"Kratos, thou hast done well. Now, thou must heed my words, will thou listen?"

I nodded, I was actually interested on what was going on here.

"I must start with the goddesses... There were three that descended from the heavens to create the

world. Din, the goddess of power, with her strong flaming arms she crafted the world... Naryu, the

goddess of wisdom, her intellect giving order and law to the world... Farore, goddess of courage, with

her rich soul she gave to the world life, which would uphold the law."

I nodded, signaling for him to continue. These 'goddesses' could they be summon spirits?

"These goddesses, their trials completed, left the world unto the heavens. The spot they descended

from, the sacred realm, was sealed. Three sacred stones unlock the sacred realm, in which the man of

the desert desired so badly, he cursed me."

As Lloyd would say... 'bastard'.

"Kratos, though your efforts were successful, I was doomed before you began..."

My eyes widened. What?

"It was a test, to prove thine skill..."

I was USED by a tree-?

"Kratos, thou must not allow the evil man of the desert to set foot in the sacred realm."

A green light shined above me, an emeral the size of my head descending into my hands.

"..."

"Thou must go to Hyrule castle, where thou will meet the princess of destiny..."

"Great Deku Tree..." Navi moaned.

"Thank you Navi..." the tree grayed. "For...thine...help...good...by...e..."

I gaped in shock as the tree stiffened, as if turned to stone.

"...Let's go Kratos." Navi said softly.

I nodded slowly, leaving the tree in silence.

"...Goodbye Deku Tree..." Navi whispered before following.

I felt...bad, for some reason. It's not like I knew the Tree but... Oh great, it's Mido again.

"You! WHAT HAPPENED? YOU FREAKING KILLED THE DEKU TREE!"

"What-?" I stared. "I tried to SAVE him-"

"YOU JERK! I KNEW YOU WEREN'T ONE OF US!" Mido shouted, walking off in a huff.

"..."

"Ignore him Kratos, he does that to everyone, in case you don't remember that yet..."

"Whatever." I snorted, walking off.

"Wh-what? YOU LITTLE PUNK!"

I ignored her, but that little light speck keeps following me for the love of mana... I managed to

find the exit of the village and walked across the bridge...

"You're leaving."

I paled, turning around to see that girl, Saria.

"Yes."

"...I knew you'd leave someday." she said sadly. "Because you aren't like me and my friends..."

"..."

Did she know anything about...?

"Here." she handed me a wooden ocarina. "I want you to have it."

I looked at it silently, then looked back at her.

"Come back someday. Okay?" she whispered.

That's when I had the shock of my long life, her face... her face changed. Brown hair, big

chocolate colored eyes...

"Anna-?" I gasped.

"...Kratos-" she reached for my hand.

I backed away, staring at her in shock. Impossible! What-? What was going on-? I backed away from

her before I turned and ran out of the area, leaving her behind me.

"Kratos?" Navi asked. "Are you okay? Why'd you call her 'Anna'?"

"...I-"

"HOO HOO!"

I practically jumped, an owl, the size of a dragon was in the tree above me, looking down.

"Hoo hoo! Well I've see you've begun your journey, eh?"

Who the hell IS this crazy bird...?

"You should head for Hyrule castle! There you'll meet the Princess. Someone ELSE you might know."

"What?" I snapped. "What do you mean by that?"

"You knew the forest girl, did you not?"

I felt my blood run cold.

"...Who are you?"

"Hoo hoo! I don't need to give you my NAME, however, ol' Rauru might fill you in!"

"Rauru? Who's Rauru?"

"The light Sage?" Navi asked.

"Hoo hoo! Maybe! Maybe!"

The owl flew off, I ran after it.

"Wait! Come back here!" I spread my wings and flew after him.

"Hoo hoo!" he hooted. "Good luck Kratos!"

Then he dissappeared. Just...dissappeared.

"What? Where did you go you derenged bird?'!" I shouted.

"Kratos!" Navi flew over to me. "Deal with him later, we need to get to the palace!"

"..." I sighed. "Fine. Which way is it?"

I found myself walking to the palace, not wanting anyone to see my wings without a reason. I strode

toward the town gates, my mind racing. Who was that owl? How did he know about... and why...

"Hey Kratos?" Navi asked. "Why did you call Saria 'Anna'?"

"...She...looked like someone I knew." I answered simply.

"Oh! Are you getting your memory back?"

"...Let's just keep going."

We finally entered the Castle Town, which was as crowded and lively as Meltokio.

"Hello there fairy-boy!"

...Did someone just call me 'Fairy-boy'...? I turned around, ready to shout at-

"I'm Malon!" the girl grinned.

She was a farm girl by the looks of it, hair the same shade as Zelos' and eyes like Colette.

"Could you help me? My dad ran off and I can't find him! He's probably sleeping, hee!"

I raised an eyebrow at her, walking past the girl toward the palace. At first I decided simply to ask.

You think I would have more sense than that.

"YOU?" the guard laughed. "Sorry kid! The palace is no place for twerps like you!"

"...Did you just call me a twerp?" I hissed.

The guard flinched. "Whoah! Don't look at me like that! I take it back! I take it back!"

"Then let me in." I stated coldly.

"Sorry..." he shivered. "You're scary, but Impa's even scarier..."

"Impa?"

"YIPE! I said too much! Sorry, but you have to leave!"

I snorted, turning away from the man and heading for the town-

"Hoo hoo! Having trouble?"

I looked up, the owl again!

"You!" I shouted. "Tell me what you know about what's going on!"

"Hoo hoo! Rauru wouldn't like that. Hoo hoo! Not Rauru! Hoo! Not Origin!"

"Origin...?" I paled. "Rauru is Origin?"

"Hoo! I've said too much, oh dear."

The bird flew off, leaving me even more angry.

"Origin..." I muttered.

"WOW! THAT WAS A BIG BIRD!"

I turned around to see that Malon girl again, she was smiling.

"Dad hasn't come back. Could you find him for me? He should be in the palace."

"..."

"Please?" she whimpered. "Look! I'll even give you this egg!"

She handed me an egg, I stared at her.

"You expect people to help you for an EGG?"

"Oh come on!" she whined. "PLEASE?

"Yeah Kratos!" Navi said. "You should help people!"

I sighed. "Fine. But I don't know how I'll get into the palace-"

"That's easy silly!" Malon grinned. "Sneak in!"

Before I could say another word, she ran off, leaving me to feel pretty...stupid.

"...I'll wait till dark."

And when it was dark I simply flew over the castle courtyard until I spotted a sleeping man.

"Hey!" Navi said. "That must be Malon's dad!"

I nodded to show I heard her, I flew down and landed next to the sleeping man. Then I learned...

Only Lloyd, only Lloyd can outsleep him.

"Grr..." I growled after my umpteenth attempt to wake him.

"Maybe if we had a chicken to wake him up..." Navi said.

"...A chicken? A chicken is NOT going to-"

That's when the egg in my pocket hatched, then crowed.

"WHAT IN TARNATION?"

How the hell does a chicken crow when it first hatches...?

"Who're you?" the man said.

"...Do you know a girl named Malon-?"

"MALON! HOLY SEACOWS SHE'S GONNA LET ME HAVE IT!"

The man ran off, leaving a trail of dust-clouds behind him. There are so many...odd, people here...

"Well, now you just gotta get into that hole in there..." Navi flew toward the water way.

"Simple." I said.

I flew over to the water spout and landed, folding up my wings. I crawled through the space and...

"Uh-oh!" Navi yelped. "They're so many guards! How are you going to sneak past them-?"

"...Navi. Are you really that...dense?" I asked.

"HEY! WHO YOU CALLING-?"

"Shh!" I closed her in my hands. "They'll hear you you idiot!"

I could hear her muffled cries of 'Let me go you-' and other words I don't feel the need to say.

Getting past the guards was...how do I say this? As easy as confusing Lloyd. Yes. That easy.

"..."

The place I found myself in was a garden of sorts, there was a girl standing by the wall, looking at what

I assumed was a window. I walked up to her and tapped her on the shoulder.

"Excuse me."

The girl turned around and yelped.

"Ah! Who are you-? How did you get past the guards?"

I was about to tell her the guards weren't fit to guard a beanpatch, when I releazied who she was.

"..."

Her eyes were a reddish brown, and I could see her hairline was dark red.

"Mae?" I whispered.

Mae, that's my sister.

Lloyd: Whoah whoah, time out here. Freaky?

Me: Yeah?

Lloyd: WHY is Dad hallucinating he knows all these people?

Me: Is he hallucinating? Or is everyone else hallucinating?

Lloyd: Huh?

Me: I have bended the line between reality and dreamworld! What is real? What is not?

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!

Lloyd: Have you taken your meds today?

Me:...yes...no...kinda.
