Chapter 8: Rest and Punishment

The three left the Kokiri forest, they mounted their horses and went north "I think we should rest for the night. Mother's waiting." Lila told Link. He agreed with his sister and they went toward Lon Lon Ranch, Dink followed behind and stopped them "This is where I take my leave, I'm not sleeping at a peasant ranch." He said before speeding off, the two siblings headed onward to the ranch. They entered the ranch and rode their horses to the corral, they dismounted their horses and walked into the house. Their grandfather Talon was sitting at the table drinking whiskey with Ingo "Hey kids, where you been? You're mom's been worried sick." He asked Link and Lila "The queen has us doing a few things for her." Link replied "Really? What kind of thing?" he asked intrigued "We've have temples we need to free from monsters, we've already beaten two." Link said excitingly "Is that so?" Malon said walking in the door. She had a horse whip in her hand and looked at the two angrily "Link, go upstairs and go to your room. I need to talk to your sister." She commanded Link. He went upstairs and shed his armor, he got in the bed and closed his eyes.

Lila shed her armor and was back in the green tunic, she looked nervously at her mother "What's wrong mother?" she asked Malon. Malon grabbed Lila by her hair and threw her into her lap "I said hurry and bring your brother home, not go out and get yourself killed!" she shouted, she lifted up the back of Lila's tunic exposing her bottom. Malon raised the crop and smacked Lila's ass (smack smack smack smack smack smack smack smack) Lila bawled in pain at the spanking "Mother please stop!" she shouted through tears "I raised you kids as farmers not warriors, there's a reason I wanted to keep you away from these things. I don't want you going anywhere near that castle, or that prissy bitch queen EVER AGAIN!" she shouted raising the crop once more (smack smack smack smack smack smack smack smack smack smack) Malon quit spanking and looked at the crying Lila "Stand up and get to bed, you got a lot od chores to do tomorrow." She told Lila. Lila nodded tearfully and walked upstairs, she got in the bed with Link and cried herself to sleep.

Dink rode to the castle, he dismounted his horse and hitched it outside the castle. He walked in past the guards and walked the stairs and to his room, sitting on his bed was his mother crying "What's wrong mother?" he asked Zelda. She turned around and faced him "I think I went wrong raising you, I figured you'd being my son and being raised by the royal family you'd be righteous. I can see your intentions, you wish to seek the Golden Power for yourself." Zelda stood up and got on her knees at her son's feet "My son, I beg you fight it. Remain pure, don't let that evil man's voice hinder who you are!" Dink listened to her words "How did you know?" he asked her "I can tell son, this man will lead you to destruction. Fight him." She pleaded with her son. Dink nodded as Zelda stood up "I will mother." He told her, Zelda wiped her tears and walked out of his room.

The next morning Link got out of bed, he put his armor on and walked downstairs, Malon looked at him "Maybe you want some of what your sister got last night, you're not going back out there to this ridiculous quest." She said firmly. Link picked up hos sword and shield and put them on his back "Wrong, I'm going. And Lila's coming with me, and when we're done. We're not coming back to the ranch, I was knighted yesterday by the queen. My dream is coming true and I'm going to live it." He said walking out the door, Lila followed behind him with her armor on and weapons ready. Malon was speechless and she stormed out the door after them "Your father died living this life, and I don't want you two to meet the same fate. That princess and her damn quest got my lover killed and she's got you two wrapped up in the same crap. If you leave this ranch don't you dare come back, you're as good as dead to me." Malon said with tears in her eyes, the siblings mounted their horses and left the ranch.
