THUD! A blonde haired elf with stunning blue eyes, sporting a green tunic with white tights dropped all of the shopping bags onto the floor after staggering into the front entrance. ''Thanks for the help!'' He called out sarcastically. The tired elf stood there for a second, catching his breath. Why did he always have to do the shopping? Why couldn't somebody else get off their lazy backside and help for once? The elf, having great hearing due to his large pointy ears, suddenly heard the sound of feet pattering across the landing above him. Approximately 5 seconds later, a big green head popped up from over the banister and grinned.
''LINK IS BACK!'' Yelled Yoshi.
''Uh oh.'' Link knew exactly what was going to happen next. It happened every time.
All at once, what seemed like a thousand brawlers suddenly burst through in from assorted directions and practically smothered the poor, little elf.
''FINALLY!''
''DID YOU GET WHAT I ASKED FOR?''
'' YOU FORGOT MY- NEVERMIND IT'S HERE!''
''I WANTED A RED ONE NOT A PURPLE ONE!''
''YES! THE NEW FOOTBALL!''
''MAMA MIA! MY NEW-A CAP-A!''
''DID YOU GET THE GAME I ASKED FOR?''
Link squeezed his eyes shut and covered his ears. He hated this. He hated every second of it. He instantly felt claustrophobic and he couldn't move an inch. This is probably why Navi refused to go shopping with him. Because she knew she'd get squished when they arrived back at the mansion. But just because she didn't go with him, didn't mean she would just let him stand there and be practically smothered by brawlers ripping open shopping bags and throwing the contents around in such a compact crowd.
''HEY! HEY LISTEN!'' The tiny fairy had such a loud voice for her size. But it took a while to grab everybody's attention.
''HEY!'' She shouted once again. Still no response.
''HEEEEEY! LISTEN YOU IDIOTS!'' She bellowed at the top of her lungs.
Finally, everybody got the message and immediately stopped in their tracks.
''What do you want, you tiny speck of dust?'' Meta Knight thundered.
''MOVE OUT OF THE WAY AND LET LINK PAST. AND WOULD IT KILL YOU TO THANK HIM?!''
Everybody obeyed the feisty fairy and formed a clear path for the shaken elf to walk down.
''Thanks, buddy.''
''Cheers.''
''Thanks, Link!''
''Thank you, fairy boy.''
''Thanks!''
Thank Yous were thrown at the hero of time as he made his way towards Navi. When he reached the itsy-bitsy fairy, everybody threw themselves at the shopping again causing just as much chaos as before.
''Thanks, Navi.'' Link smiled appreciatively .
''Anytime!'' Navi said as she settled herself onto Link's shoulder. ''By the way, did you buy anything for yourself?''
'''No. I didn't need anything.'' Link shrugged.
''HA! Have you seen your tunic? There's a whole in every inch of it! You need to buy yourself a new one. Zelda will never go to the dance with you dressed like that.'' She felt mean saying that but it was true. Zelda liked it when a boy was well presented and tidy.
Link looked down at his tunic. The annoying fairy had a point. It was pretty damaged. No princess would ever want to go to a dance with someone who was dressed in rags. He sighed. ''You're right. I look a total mess.''
''No, you don't. Your face is still flawless and your tights aren't that bad but it's just that tunic!''
Link pulled at the material. ''So, I'll borrow one of Dark Link's?''
''But, his tunics are black. You look nice in green. You wouldn't suit black.'' Navi wouldn't have any of it. Link was going to get a new, green tunic if it killed her.
''Fine. I'll go shopping tomorrow.'' The elf turned to his shoulder to make eye contact with the miniature fairy.
''Fine. But you'll have to go early. The dance starts at seven.'' Navi told him. ''Promise you'll go?''
''I promise. Will you come with me? I'm not good with size and stuff…''
''Suppose I should. Knowing you, you'd come back with a pink T-shirt with a butterfly on it and a mini skirt to show of your feminine legs!'' Navi laughed.
''You're such a bully.'' Link folded his arms and scowled.
''But you know you love me, anyway!''
''Of course I do.'' Link smiled as Navi gave him a kiss on the cheek. It didn't feel like much. Just a tiny, tiny little prod.
