A/N: Aaaand Wednesday. Actually, high school isn't that bad. Fun even. I have good friends and good teachers. And only 3 classes a day. :). But I was lazy last week, so I have two chapters to write. Including a boss!

...enough about school. ZEDLA! And plot! :) So enjoy! ...The line break button dissaperated. *cries*

AND I DONT OWN ZELDA!

Link woke up in a comfortable bed. Remembering last night, he sat up really quickly.

"Welcome back boy." It was the man Zelda had referred to as Teacher.

"Excuse me sir, but how did we get here..."

The old man chuckled. "Call me Teacher."

"Is that your name?"

"Yup. Lenny T. Eacher. So people call me Teacher. Anyways, there was quite the hubbub outside, and I went out to investigate. People kept saying that the Spirit Tracks were missing. It was very ominous, if I say so myself. Then some guards came back carrying you and Alfonzo."

Alfonzo! Link turn to see him sleeping on a bed.

"Yup, he's still asleep. He should be fine. Anyways, both of you were out cold, so I brought you two up here, and waited until you woke up. Now tell me, what happened?"

Link didn't know what to say. Zelda had really trusted Teacher, but should he tell him? It would only worry him. He was Zelda's guardian, and did deserve to know. So Link decided to tell him exactly what happened. In his own words, of course, but as well as he could remember.

"So, what you're saying is... The chancellor is a... demon-monster thingymabob? And he kidnapped Princess Zelda? Hmmm..." Teacher paused to mull the info over. "My goodness, what a story! You're just pulling my leg, aren't ya boy?"

Link gravely shook his head. "No sir- I mean Teacher, this is all true."

"So it's true, you say... Hmmm..." Teacher paused a moment.

Link watched him, sure he would dismiss the story. Instead, he jumped backwards as Teacher exploded in worry.

"WHAAAAAAT?! So... The Princess has been kidnapped! This is terrible! I must inform the Princess at once!"

Link started to nod his agreement, then did a double take. "Wait, what did you just say?"

Teacher realized what he said, then murmured, "Ah, that's right. She's not here. Well, I'm at a loss as to what to do. What to do, what to do... I need to find the Princess, but where to look..."

Link glanced apologetically at the worried man, then turned to check on Alfonzo.

Alfonzo murmured, "My head... Did they hurt you, Link? And what happened to the Princess? Is she ok? As long as I'm laid up, you're responsible for her safety! Ok..." Alfonzo collapsed again, and Link allowed him to rest. After assuring Teacher that he would look for Zelda, he hurried out.

He was in a wing of the castle he had never seen before. He glanced at his map. It had a large crack through the middle, but still worked well enough. Link tried to draw on it, but the line ended up really twisty. The touch screen didn't work. Link sighed, and figured that as long as it worked as a map, he was good. Looking at it, he saw that he was on the left wing of the castle, and that it was easy to get out. He would start outside the castle, then walk to the Tower of Spirits. It was a long walk, but he could make it. He hurried to the main hall, but when he got there, stopped in surprise.

A floating blue ball, one that looked exactly like the one that went towards the Castle before, was slowly floating down the hall. Then it stopped, and with a pop, turned into Zelda! Except she was a spirit! Link gaped as Zelda said to the Guard in front of the stairs to the Ceremony Hall, "Hello? HELLO? Guards, help me, please! ... Can anyone of you see me? Or hear me? I need your help!" She paused, then floated up to the guard's ear. "CAN YOU HEAR ME! WHY CAN'T ANYONE SEE ME!" At this point she seemed to give up, then floated up the stairs.

Link ditched his plan and ran past the guard and up the stairs. Zelda was there, talking to another guard. Or at least trying to. "I NEED YOUR HELP!" She screamed. "Why in Hyrule can't anyone HEAR ME?! Or at least SEE ME?! What happened to me..." She then floated through a door. Link gazed after her for a while, the heard a scream of surprise when Zelda realized what she just did.

Link decided to ask the guard to open the gate. The Guard was busy talking to himself about specters, so Link just pushed the door open and walked in. He ended up right outside Zelda's room. Which was sad, Link noted, because he could have just done this instead of having to take that secrete passage Zelda told him about. But he figured that it was for secrecy, as there were plenty of guards on the way up. So Link dismissed it and climbed up to Zelda's chamber.

Zelda was inside. She turned, and seeing Link, said, "...Can you... see me, Link?"

Link kinda nodded. He was way to busy admiring how the glowing made the Princess look absolutely gorgeous.

She sighed in relief, then looked away. "I must apologize to Alfonzo for what happened. And to you too. I never knew the chancellor was capable of such evil. All these years, and I never noticed what he really was. I was a fool."

Link immediately objected. "No, we all should have noticed. It wasn't only you. I should have been a better protector. I could've helped Alfonzo..."

"I think we were beat from the start. And now the Tower of Spirits is breaking apart... You saw that too, Link?" Link nodded. "Good, at least I'm not crazy. It must have something to do with the dark forces. After all, they made the Spirit Tracks disappear. This must be the handiwork of Cole and his cronies. But what could their goal be?" By now, Zelda was talking to herself. "He said something about the Spirit Tracks vanishing. What did he mean by that? And why would they take my body away with them? What will they do with it?"

Link kinda zoned out at that point. Zelda might have said more, but Link was way busier watching her float way up in the air. She hadn't noticed it yet. She was cute when she was thinking. He must have gasped, because Zelda noticed her position.

"Oh! I'm sorry. It seems I'm much... lighter without my body..." Link giggled, then stopped when Zelda glared at him, then floated back down. "Listen, Link.. Let's try again to go to the Tower of Spirits. Now more than ever, we must find the tower's sage!"

"That was... some pretty weird wording."

"Wow, that was. Anyways, I need to show you something Link." Zelda floated over to the pan flute she was playing when Link first was in her room. "This is the Spirit Flute. It's a prized heirloom of my family. It's been handed down for generations upon generations. It originally belonged to one of my ancestors, the one who founded this kingdom. It is my greatest treasure..."

The flute had six separate sized tubes, colored green, grey, blue, orange, yellow, and purple. They made a deeper sound the bigger they were, with green being the longest. It was connected by a brown crown-like thing, and had tassels on each side.

Zelda turned to Link. "I can't can't carry it in this state, you see. I am a spirit after all. But... I'm certain it's meant to protect me."

Link had no clue how the flute was supposed to protect Zelda when she was effectively a ghost. Zelda answered his question before he asked it.

"I can hardly ask for you to do more for me, but...will you take it? And will you come to the tower with me? You're the only person I can turn to now... You're also the only person that can see and hear me... So-" Zelda didn't even have to finish the question, Link had already nodded and run up to her. He grabbed the Spirit Flute and did a victory pose with it. It broke the mood again, but it made Zelda laugh.

"Now Link, the Spirit Tracks are gone, and we don't have a train."

"Yeah, and my map is broken. It only shows Hyrule Castle now."

"Oh, I'm sorry. So, therefor, we need to find a different way to the Tower of Spirits." The pair stopped to think, then Zelda exclaimed, "Oh, there's a secrete passage from the castle to the tower! Though it hasn't been used... There is a door at the back of the castle. It might be there. Let's check it out!"

Zelda spun and transformed into her blue ball form. "Oh, and thank you so much, Link... Now shall we go?"
