The never ending darkness was pitch black in all forms of evil. It swallowed everything and everything.

A piercing scream filled that night, as he was found.

I feel... Cold. Why?

I wet drop dripped in my nose and I sneezed.

"Oh gosh!"

I fall out of the bed onto the hard floor.

"Ow!"

I have a piercing pain on top of my shoulder.

"Ugh, oow."

I look around my room in the stock pot inn.

I sigh.

"Well, I'm alive."

I pass by a mirror and stare.

I look about the same, with the tattoos and hair, but this time, my eyes seem to be in their normal color.

"Interesting."

"Zzzzzz, uh!"

"Wha?"

"Link!"

I'm grabbed in a bear hug from behind.

I grab the person and flip them over on the floor.

"Oow!"

It's Talon.

"Oh my, I'm sorry! You frightened me!"

"Oh, I'm fine. Actually, you're fine, right?"

"Why wouldn't I be?"

He opens his mouth.

"You don't remember? You where unconscious, I give you that. Well we found you passed out near the entrance to the inn. It was terrible, your shoulder was bleeding something awful."

I suddenly remember.

"Malon! Is she okay!?"

He chuckles.

"Yep, it was quite a shock though. Ya know, this is the second time this month you almost died on us."

I nod.

I walk over and put on my armor, and was surprised to see a giant hole in the shoulder.

"Hmm, what was that thing?"

"Where's Malon?"

"Why ya so worried? She's fine, just a room over."

I remember what it said.

Don't make threats...or she will pay for it...

"Malon."

"Link!"

She opens the door.

"What happened!? You just collapsed and started bleeding! Then I thought I heard something say "watch the girl", it was scary!"

I feel a sinking feeling in my stomach.

"We need to leave."

She didn't hear me.

I go downstairs.

"Guys, we need to leave, now."

Impa, Zelda, and Anju stared at me.

"What?"

"We need to leave, it's not safe here."

"What!? Why?!"

"Rephrase, you need to leave. There's something coming, and I have to fight it."

"What is it?" Impa asks.

"Impa, remember when you had to sever part of the Fierce Deity's spirit?"

"Yes."

"Well, it made some friends, and he told them my secrets, and that puts you in danger."

"That's not possible! I sealed it in a manic jar!"

"What!?"

I run to Impa's room and saw the broken jar. Impa soon follows.

"Oh no!"

"Wait, this didn't fall! It was broken intentionally!"

I hear a clattering in a background.

I rush upstairs.

Malon's door is locked.

I cut it in two with my sword.

Someone in black is cornering Malon!

I throw my knife into the person's back.

"Aah!"

I dead-leg him and click both buttons in my gloves, and cross them in front of his neck.

"Talk."

"Hek-la mon-sa maosa!"

He disappeared.

"No! Nononononono!"

I grab Malon and jump out of the window.

"Run! Everyone run!"

Impa and Zelda run out the door with Anju.

"Get out of here! Now!"

I run as quickly as I could and dove behind cover right before the top floor of the inn exploded!

I hear someone running towards us.

"What happened!?" Kafei yells.

I unsheathe my.

"We need to run, now."

"What!?"

"It was a Hylian spell-caster, and an advance one at that. He got away before I could stop him, and I assume the king is on his way now."

The mayor comes running.

"What ha-"

"You need all soldiers guarding the Clocktower ASAP!"

"ASAP?"

I roll my eyes.

"As Soon As Possible! Go now! Termina might be at war."

"W-war!?"

"Link!? What are we going to do?" Malon asks me.

I think.

It takes to long to get out of Termina, so we're going to have to pick where to go.

"...link..."

Not now!

"...I will help you escape...play this song on the ocarina of time..."

I hear a song in the wind, and I copy it.

"Grab hold!"

Seven people put their hands on me and we where warped away!

We fall over each other as we landed.

"Ow!"

I'm looking up at the sky. Hyrule's Sky.

I jump up.

"Hyrule."

Everybody else gets up and looks over the horizon.

"Wow! It's so pretty!" I hear Anju say.

Malon stands up and starts jumping.

"That was awesome! It felt like I was flying!"

She grabs me.

"We've got to do that again sometime!"

"..."

"Four, twenty five, thirty two, that is the key."

I nod.

"Alright, let's move."

"Link, you owe us an explanation." Zelda says

"What? About what?"

"Don't play dumb, we where hopeless, but then you spaced out and then played that song, and now we're here, and you're telling us where to go. What is going on?"

"Midna."

"What?"

"We need to find Midna, the imp. When I was unconscious someone told me a combination to unlock a dungeon, a few miles out of the forest. When I zoned out, I heard that song. I've never heard that song, but the instrument is only found in the village outside that dungeon. Someone wants me to go there, and I'm not about to say no."

"Who's Midna?" Malon asks.

"Trust me, you probably want to stay away from Midna."

I remember the threat.

The threat was said about the one I cared about the most...

I realize that, even though Zelda is a great friend and ally, Malon is the one I cared about more.

Why is that? I guess that Malon was the first girl I met outside of the forest...

"Link! Snap out of it!"

I shake back into reality.

"Oh! Yeah, I've got something to say, actually."

"You where just talking."

"Oh, yeah. Anyway we are all still in big danger, because of our little jar incident. The Fierce Deity's spirit has escaped, and it knows me; who I love, what my weaknesses are, everything I know! That puts all of us in danger, so I suggest we all stay together."

I draw my sword.

"If you can wield a weapon, then you need to protect someone who doesn't have one."

Kafei draws a dagger.

"It's not much, but I know how to use it."

Impa walks towards Zelda.

"It is my job to protect the royal family, so I will guard Zelda."

Kafei holds Anju's hand.

"Let's go with the obvious."

I nod.

"So that means I will guard-"

"Me!" Said Talon.

"Woah!"

He picks me up.

"I'm no good with a sword, so you'll protect me, right?"

Impa smirks.

"Actually, if Link guarded you, then who will guard Malon?"

"Malon? Oh, then he can guard us both, right Malon?"

She nods.

"Then it's settled, we go to... Where are we going, Link?"

"It's a small village next to a dungeon. It's called Guanhola."

"Good, then let's-"

"Nope, first we need supplies. Well make a quick stop at Kakariko village."

We walk up to Kakariko village's gate.

Wait, kakariko doesn't have a gate!

A cannon pops out of a hatch.

"Who are ya! State yer business!"

I put my hands in the air.

"It's me, Link! I have with me Impa, the Lon Lon ranchers, the princess, and two others!"

They stop talking for awhile.

"You may enter."

We come in and are shuffled into a house.

"You look different, Link. I nearly blasted your head off."

He turns to Zelda.

"And the princess! I thought you where on the side of that whack-job dad of yours!"

She scoffs.

"My father is ill. Link says he knows what it is, but-"

"Great! Then you can cure it!"

"No no no! I can't cure it! I know how to, but I can't!"

"Oh... Out of curiosity, how do ya cure it?"

I sigh.

"You either need all pieces of the triforce, or a master wizard, which I am not."

"Ooh, then if her not here to cure the king, then what are ye here for?"

"Supplies, we're going on a journey. We need food, water, and camping supplies."

"A journey!? In the time we're in right now? Aye aye aye."

I pull out a yellow roupee.

"Here, take this."

He grabs it and tells a soldier to gather some supplies.

"It'll be awhile, considering that he'd have to go to Hyrule castle to get it, so stay here and relax!"

He leaves us in the building.

"Well, what are we going to do now?" Malon asks.

I shrug.

"We could run down to the inn. They have some good food there."

Before anyone said anything, I'm knocked over by a horse.

"Aah! Watch where you're going, you quarter-wit fool!"

"Sorry, pal! The horse just saw a glimpse of ya and jumped to ya."

I get up and look at the horse.

"Epona!"

I cut the rope that the man was holding.

"Hey! That there's my horse!"

"You found it outside the forest, right?"

"You sometime of psychic?"

"No, it's just where I left my horse."

I rub Epona's back.

"Where's her saddle?"

He grumbles.

"Ya have proof it's your horse?"

I nod.

"It's brand is Lon Lon, and I bought her there."

He checks the markings.

"How do I know you didn't steal it?"

Malon cleared her throat.

He grumbles.

"I sold the saddle."

"And the roupees, and I'm pretty sure there was dried beef."

He tosses me my roupee pouch.

"I ate the beef."

I shrug, and turn back to the group.

"Well, let's go to the inn for a spell, shall we?"

When we walk into the inn, the room goes silent.

Everybody stares at me.

"What?!"

They go back their previous activities.

Anju, Malon, and Zelda look at everyone cautiously.

"Is there possibly somewhere else we could go?"

I roll my eyes.

"There's a market up the hill, you can go, but they make the best dried beef here."

They quickly got out of the inn.

I walk up to the counter.

"I'll take ten pounds of dried beef."

"Someone's hungry; that'll be two-hundred roupees."

I pull out a golden roupee.

He takes it and hands me the beef in a pouch.

I walk out past Kafei and Impa.

"You probably don't want to order a drink here; one sip of even the water, and you'll be out quicker that a match."

They look around and follow me.

We leave after a few hours, with a new saddle, and Epona, with Talon sleeping on her back.

At the edge of the forest, I stopped.

I exhale deeply.

"Do ya feel it? The blow of the wind, the sun set high. This is the start of another adventure."
