Disclaimer: I don not own +Anima or Zelda.

"I'm hungry," complained Cooro for the seventh time.

Link groaned. The two of them had just had dinner, and had set up camp for the night. It seemed like Cooro had an everlasting appetite. He needed some way to distract him from the call of his bottomless stomach.

"I have a better idea," said Link. "How about you tell me a little about yourself, and I'll tell you a little about me."

"Okay," said Cooro. "You first."

So Link told Cooro about his life in Kokiri forest, and how the children there never grew up. Then he told him about how he had met Zelda, and how he had saved Hyrule. Cooro listened intently, making comments in some areas. The part about Ganondorf had scared him a little bit, but he remained relatively cool. Then it was his turn.

"I come from a land called Astaria," began Cooro. "I was born in a city called Lilt, but I was raised in a church in a city called Kilter. Then, because of my anima, I was taken to the research facility and was given assignments there. One day, I was put in a village called Barney, and I met a fish +anima named Husky. Then we went together to a village called Abon, and we met, Senri, a bear +anima. After that, all three of us went under the city of Octopus and met Nana, a bat +anima."

Cooro went on and on describing the adventure that he and his companions went on. He went on into the night, and only stopped when Link said that it might be a good idea to get some rest. The next morning, Link asked Cooro how he got his +anima. Cooro stopped talking for a minute, and got kind of sad.

"You only get an anima if you're in a near-death incident," he said solemnly. "I got mine when I almost died in my mother's womb. Husky almost drowned, and Senri and Nana's fathers almost killed them."

Link could tell that Cooro didn't like talking about his +anima, so he dropped the subject, but only after asking one more question.

"Can I see your wings?"

"Sure," said Cooro. In an instant, black wings sprouted from his shoulders. Link stared in awe.

"They're beautiful," said Link.

"Thanks," said Cooro, and he pulled his wings back in. Then the two of then set out again for the forest.
