Link gaped as he looked out at the lake. He'd never seen that much water in one place before. Link couldn't even see the bottom from his place on the beach. The water sparkled blue and clear in the noonday sun, but the only thing Link could see was ta few rainbow colored fish. A few floating strands of a green grass like plant hinted at an end to the seemingly endless lake. "Wow…" Link murmured, staring out at it, "That's... huge!" It was the only word he could think of. Malon looked up to see what he was talking about, then laughed and agreed, "Yeah, you've never been to the lake before have you?" Link shook his head then started walking to the water's edge. Along the way he kicked his boots off and dropped his equipment on the beach. Without losing a moment, Link ran into the water and dove in at the drop-off.
Ingo watched the little boy, Link, run into the water. Malon ran after him and Ingo went looking for a place to sit. He found it in the form of a shady tree. Ingo reclined against the rough bark and stared off after the children. Splashing around in the water, they occupied themselves. Ingo felt a yawn building up and he stifled it behind his hand. This was his day, watching two kids amuse themselves with water. It was stupid, but Talon had told him to and Talon was the boss. However, someday that would change. Someday Ingo would be the boss and Lon Lon Ranch would be run like a business not like a game. There would be income, money enough to pay for things he wanted. Expensive things to suit his taste. Gold, gold everywhere. Ingo's daydreaming ran wild and gave birth to fantastic dreams as he fell into a deep sleep.
Malon looked around wildly for Link. He'd disappeared underwater just moments ago, she knew that. But where was… water splashed over Malon, drenching her completely. "Hey!" she shrieked. Malon spun around quickly and caught Link preparing to dive back underwater. Leaping forward, Malon caught him by the shoulders and knocked Link backward. They tumbled through the water for a few moments before returning to a more breathable climate. They were both panting and drenched. Malon's hair hung down in her face, interrupting her view. Only a few feet of quivering water separated her from her adversary. Locking eyes with Link, she snarled, "Don't splash me!" Link just grinned, splashed her, and dove back underwater.
I've established a plot and this story is being extended to eight chapters. Enjoy :)
