Ruki44: Alright, thanks to all of you who reviewed already and told me how to sp chivalry right. That was a huge help ^^ Spell check didn't come through for me on that one, piece of crap.

Ruki: Can't rely on spell check for everything...

Rukia: Blasphamy!

Hinata: I don't even see why you need to rely on a machine application to spell...I mean its your native tounge, you should be able to spell the damn words.

Tetra: Oh that's what you think...

Ruki44: Sometimes I think people who speak English as their second language speak it better then those who speak it as their native language. Sort of sad when you think about it.

Ruki: Now that I think about it, isn't English techincally for all of us but you our second language. I mean for Rukia, Hinata, and I, Japanese is our native language...and Hyrulean is Tetra's. So she knows like three different languages...

Hinata: We know more, I mean we're subbed in so many different other languages...spanish, german, french, you name it. I mean the only other language Ruki44 knows is Spanish and even then its horribly limited.

Rukia: I thought she passed Spanish...

Ruki44: I did...but doesn't mean I retained anything from the course. Sort of like math...

Tetra: Right...

Ruki44: Anyways, I was planning on doing up into the Water Temple for this chapter. Except I realized that I would have to do that whole bug hunt scence, which includes the huge ass bug battle (which would have given me a heart attack if I didn't watch my friend play the game before) and unfreezing the Zoras (which will include an emotional scence b/c if you read this already, Rutela and Zelda were friends in life), the howling stone, and possible the huge ass bird. Then I would probably do the Minigame bomb thing, have the Hero of Time teach the back stab, talk to Agitha (cuz nothing will be funnier to add to this then a bug obsessed chick). Then the whole Illia not recognizing Link scence, the battle on the bridge and the escort, getting the Zora armor, buying the water bombs, and heading off to Lakebed Temple. And that is a lot to write for one chapter and I know other people can do that but I'm sorry and I'm just lazy. What I just described might be all of the next chapter or split into two chapters with the first part of this ending with Fyer's launch out of the cannon (ha ha poor Link and Zelda).

Ruki: Good lord that's a lot.

Tetra: Yea and in the stragedy guide it only takes like 2 pages front and back to go through it.

Rukia: And it's mostly pictures!

Ruki44: I know right! Anyways I don't own anything!

To Lake Hylia

We had left Death Mountain and were walking through the town when suddenly Zelda stopped me.

"Hey Link, looks like that shop is open. It wasn't open before…let's go check it out shall we?" Zelda pulled my sleeve and I looked over to where she was pointing. It was one of the shops we had ransacked when we were looking for those damn bugs…

"Barnes Bomb Shop…" I read the sign, slightly frowning as I turned to the young princess next to me. "Of course you would spot a bomb shop right away. I really don't think you should be trusted around exploded devices…" I told her slowly. Zelda rolled her eyes, obviously a bit irked.

"Fine then, I promise I'll stay away from the bombs. I have a feeling that we're going to need them in the quest." I grumbled as I opened the door, gesturing her to go in first. I was a gentleman after all. Zelda gave me a mock curtsey and I rolled my eyes at her antics.

I walked in the building, it still looked desolate and run down as it did when we were in the Twilight. The only thing that was different was the guy I noticed was at Renaldo's hut when we were in the Twilight and the rows and rows of bombs. Maybe bringing Zelda here wasn't such a good idea after all…

"Hey there, if it isn't the heroes, I'm Barnes by the way. Though you probably could figure that out by the name of the store… I just opened up you see. I managed to get some of my old wares back, which is good. Which leads me to my next point, I'm selling a bomb bag with 30 bombs for 120 rupees." Barnes greeted us before hitting us with his sales pitch. I frowned a bit.

"Dunno…" Was all I was able to get out before being pulled over into the corner by Zelda. I was about to ask her what the deal when she started to lecture me.

"Link, say yes! 120 rupees for all that is a REALLY good price. If you don't do this, I swear to the goddesses I will beat the living hell out of you." I paled at her threat. I didn't doubt she would. While in matters speaking, I was stronger than her, I wouldn't hit her. But she would hit me and there lies the problem.

"Fine." I gave in, running my fingers through my hair. "I'll buy it." Zelda smiled at me and I groaned in my head. I didn't need anybody to tell me that I was whipped. I turned to Barnes and dug out exactly 120 rupees from my wallet. It was a good chunk of the money we had found in the temple. Why rupees seemed to be in pots was beyond me. Chests I can understand…but pots?

Barnes took the money and gave me the bomb bag filled with bombs.

"There you go lad. You can combine them with your arrows you know." I paled at that. I couldn't shoot for crap and Zelda couldn't be trusted near explosives. I shook my head. We'd burn that bridge when we came to it.

"Um…thank you." I said as I moved the bombs away from Zelda as she tried to make a grab for them, almost making her fall for a lack of balance, but I used my free hand (it doesn't take two hands to hold a bomb bag you know) to catch her by the back of her shirt. "See you later." And with that I dragged Zelda out of the store.

"Oh are you two leaving?" I turned to see a Goron standing outside of the shop. Zelda nodded.

"Yea, we really don't have much time to really stick around for long. Sorry." She apologized, giving a small bow. The Goron waved it off with one of his huge rock hands.

"Not a problem. I understand, you two are doing everything to save Hyrule. I was just wondering because I think you two should say goodbye to the kids before you leave, you know? Little Talo is up there keeping watch in case monsters attack, I'm sure he would be love it if you went and visited him you know?" I scratched my head. Visiting the kids before I go would be good…

"Yea, we'll go say hi." I decided nodding my head. The Goron gave me a big grin, showing all of his teeth.

"Alright! You can climb on my back, it would be faster that way." The Goron told us enthusiastically as he curled up in a little ball. I raised my eyebrow and looked at Zelda who simply shrugged. I climbed up on the Goron's back and helped Zelda up. No sooner did she got on then rock man shot us up into the air and on a ledge a bit further up.

"You know, I just realized this, but if we didn't land, we would have died by now. I mean there is NO way we could have survived a drop this high." I commented as I looked uneasily into the street below. Zelda brushed herself off as she looked up where I could barely see Talo keeping watch.

"Nah, if we tuck in roll at the last minute, all of our energy will be displaced and we won't be harmed at all…except for maybe a nasty brush burn or something. But we would be still alive and that's what counts." Zelda told me with a smile as she turned and faced me. I stared at her.

"That makes no sense what so ever." I told her finally as I began to climb a ladder that led up to where Talo is.

"Just accept my half hearted explanation!" Zelda whined as she climbed up after me. I rolled my eyes. Not much of a choice there.

We reached the top and I climbed up then turned around to help Zelda up. It's nice Zelda didn't squeal like this one girl did when I was polite to her, or be like Illia and say something like "It's nice to know that chivalry isn't dead after all". Though she's probably used to it…the chivalry I mean. The suitors think they can win her over with being polite…and everyone else being polite to her because she's the royalty…

"Link! Princess Zelda! We all heard about it, you helped the Gorons didn't you? I'm decided to help this town too! I'm keeping watch!" Talo announced to us proudly, puffing out his chest. Zelda smiled at him.

"That's great!" She exclaimed, kneeling down so she was at the same level he was. "That's very brave of you." Talo blushed as I nodded my head in agreement.

"Thanks…hey…is that a bow and arrow?" Talo's attention rapidly shifted to Zelda's back where indeed the bow and arrow from the mines lay on her back. I wonder if we were supposed to give that back…I sure hope not, though I suppose it didn't matter. Just another count on my ever growing rap sheet.

"Yea." Zelda confirmed after a brief glance at the bow and arrows that she had slung on her back. I swear to the goddesses, the kid had stars in his eyes. He had an odd fascination with tools of war. Anything that can cause physical harm upon others, he's obsessed with it.

"Cool! Are you good with it, can you show me?" Talo asked Zelda, getting up in her a face. Zelda sweatdropped as she moved backwards.

"Sure?" I sighed as Talo yelled happily and began dancing around. Poor Zelda didn't know what she was getting herself into.

XxXxXxXxXxXxXx

"So do you really know how to use that bow? Take no offense to this…but you don't seem like the person who could be trusted with sharp pointy objects." Malo asked Zelda as I looked around the village and spotted various targets Malo had placed.

"It's not the sharp pointy things you need to be worried about, it's the explosives." I told him as Zelda frowned and stuck her tongue out at me.

"Thanks a lot Link. And just watch, these targets are nothing." Zelda declared proudly, unstringing the bow from her back and notching and arrow. She briefly aimed and shot each target with such accuracy and power that they were reduced to splinters. I didn't know a bow was that powerful!

"Amazing!" Talo yelled from the watchtower. "Hey can you hit this pole right here?!" I squinted my eyes. What pole? Zelda obviously saw it because she smirked and notched her arrow again and aimed it in the general area where Talo was standing up in the watch tower and let it fly. My mouth dropped open, was she trying to kill him?! The arrow stopped right next to him and Talo's excited yells indicated she had indeed hit this mysterious pole that everyone but me can see.

"Impressive. You would make a fine sniper. In fact, I have this new item called the 'Hawkeye'. It would be perfect for somebody like you. Normally I would sell it for 200 rupees…but since you helped save the Gorons and amused my brother…100 rupees." Malo offered. Zelda beamed and pulled out her wallet.

"You have a deal!"

XxXxXxXxXxXx

We left Kakariko after saying good-bye to everyone and we rode Epona north across the stone bridge. It was shortly after we crossed the bridge when Zelda's predication that bombs would be in handy for our quest came true. Block our path was a couple of boulders.

"Heh, boy did I hit it on the mark when I thought we would need bombs." I turned to Zelda, who was smirking at me. I sighed as I scratched my head.

"What, can you see into the future or something?" Zelda seemed to ponder my question honestly.

"Could be possible." She concluded finally after a minutes thought. "After all, my great grandmother, Zelda was able to foresee into the future." She informed me. Midna popped out of my shadow.

"Wait, a minute, your physic great grandmother's name was Zelda?" I like how she didn't even question the physic part… Zelda shrugged.

"And my grandma…and my mother…in fact every female in my family's name is Zelda. Something about a curse…and a prince…and a wizard…and the Triforce…which is no big surprise there. Everything seems to come back to the Triforce." While Zelda got off on her rant, I took the opportunity to take a bomb out, place it at the boulder's base and back up again and watch it blow up before she was done.

"Hey where did the boulder go?" Midna and I just stared at Zelda, how could she not notice the huge explosion? There was an awkward silence for a good three minutes before Midna decided to finally break it.

"Awkward…"

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

We had finally got on our way again and not soon getting after the bridge, we came across the wall of Twilight.

"So…you guys ready? Did everything you need in this world? Ready to move on?" Midna asked us as she hovered near the wall.

"YES! Jeez woman, you ask us that every damn time. We're here, we did everything we needed to do, we are ready to go into the wall." Zelda snapped at the imp. Midna raised an eyebrow as she floated backwards into the Twilight curtain.

"Touchy." She commented before she disappeared behind the veil. Zelda gritted her teeth as a pair of orange hands came and grabbed us both, dragging us into the Twilight. Once inside, I went through my transformation of man into a beast again. The whole thing was getting tedious.

"Ugh, thank goddesses this is the last province that is under the Twilight's spell." Zelda grumbled as she stood up and brushed herself off as Midna painfully landed on my back. "It was becoming a pain." I looked up at her after I finished glaring at Midna.

"So this is the last time I transform? Excellent!" Transforming into a wolf wasn't as painful as it was the first time, but it still was unpleasant. Zelda seemed thoughtful on this.

"I've been wondering about that. You can transform into a wolf right? So wouldn't make that you a werewolf?" She asked me slowly. Midna and I looked at each other and then back at Zelda.

"No…I don't think so…" I began to stay before Midna cut me off.

"Good question! Let's test it! What are werewolves weaknesses?" My face paled at this. This does not bode well for me…so I did the only think sensible. I ran like hell, with Midna and Zelda chasing me. I didn't get very far when I noticed something on the ground. Closer inspection revealed it to be Illia's bag.

"Hey, what did you find? A clue?" Zelda bent down and picked up the bag, examining it closely. I nodded my head.

"More or less. That's Illia's bag…if her scent is still on it, I could track her like I did the kids." I mused thoughtfully. Zelda stared at me before shoving the bag in my face making me stumble back a bit in surprise.

"Come on, then do it!" I blinked at her before taking a tentative sniff of Illia's bag. Luckily for me, Illia isn't like Talo and seems afraid of soap and water. It was nice not having such a rank scent stuck in my nose.

"Got it?" I looked up at Zelda and nodded my head dumbly.

"Yea, I got it." Zelda nodded her head, obviously pleased.

"Alright, then let's go!"

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

I padded through the streets of Castle Town, at least that is where we were according to Zelda. I'll take her word for it since outside of the Ordona Province, I have no idea where the hell I am. Also, I would hope that Zelda knew where we were since this is her country and all.

"Ah, it's Telma's bar!" I looked up at Zelda as we stood outside a building where Illia's scent had disappeared into.

"A bar? You're saying that this Illia girl is in there getting her spirit ass drunk? Lovely." Midna commented, ever sarcastic. Zelda rolled her eyes.

"No, I come here a lot when I sneak out. There is a passage that leads to the castle from here. Anyways it's not that kind of bar…but they do have beer on the menu…I don't think Telma would sell to minors…how old is Illia anyways Link?" I thought for it a moment. How old was she? I recently turned 18 and she's 6 months younger than me so…

"17 I believe." Zelda nodded her head thoughtfully.

"Two years younger than me huh?" She mused before studying me over. "And how old are you?" I blinked, where did that question come from?

"I recently turned 18…I'm 6 months older then her." I told her wondering where this is going. Zelda put her hands behind her head and let out a sigh.

"I see, you like them young…" It took me a couple of seconds to get what she was implying. When I did, my face turned red, well would of if I was in my human form.

"It's not like that!" I protested with a whine. "She's my childhood friend you know? It would be sort of weird if we were together…like that." I ended lamely. Zelda and Midna and looked at me, then each other, then back to me.

"You have relationship issues don't you?" Midna asked me as Zelda grinned. My fur bristled as I scowled.

"No!" I defended myself as Zelda and Midna laughed. I twitched my ears and flicked my tail impatiently. This so was not funny.

"Don't worry about it. She'll come around." Zelda told me with a smile that didn't quite reach her face before turning around and opening the door. I cocked my head slightly to the left as I walked in after her. What was that all about I wonder? I shrugged my shoulders and went in after the princess and noticed Illia caring for some sort of fish person.

"Oh my, it's Prince Ralis! He looks really hurt. I wonder what put him in this condition…" Zelda mused worriedly. Midna and I looked at her.

"You know him?" Midna asked as I went for the less tactful route.

"You know what he is?" Zelda stared at me before sighing, running a hand through her hair.

"What am I going to do with you Link? For your information, Prince Ralis is a Zora, a race that lives in the water and as such can breathe underwater. I know Prince Ralis because I am on close terms with his mother, Queen Rutela. The Zoras and Hylians have been on close terms ever since my great grandmother, Zelda, and her great grandmother, Ruto, became friends as children through a young Hylian boy who had grown up with Kokiri's." Zelda explained to the both of us. What caught my interest however was the last part.

"That was my great grandfather! I thought that was all just a legend." I told her excitedly. Midna looked at Zelda for translation, and after she translated she looked between the two of us, confused.

"So wait, your great grandfather knew Zelda and Ralis' great grandmother, he even introduced each other to them. But before this, you never knew what a Zora was and you had never met Zelda before, even though your great grandfather was on good terms with both princesses." Midna asked me slowly. I nodded my head.

"Yea. Pretty much." I admitted with a shrug. Midna pulled at her hair in frustration after Zelda translated for her once again.

"That makes no sense! I mean, you should be on excellent terms with Zelda and Prince Ralis before all this happened!" Midna exclaimed, throwing her hands up in the air. I scratched my head. She was right, it did make no sense. Zelda however sighed a melancholy sigh.

"I think I can explain. My great grandmother-Zelda, and Link's great-grandfather, whose name is ironically enough was Link, exposed this man named Ganondorf as a traitor. Soon after that, Link left to find his fairy partner, whom he had lost and Zelda gave him this magical instrument called the Ocarina of Time…its name implies its power. Link left and Zelda waited for his return until ten years went by until she was twenty and Link never returned.

It is Hylian Royal Family custom for the princesses to marry by the time they are 20…so she was forced to marry a suitor. Six months after this happened, she got a package in the mail, it was the Ocarina of Time. I never did hear what happened to that boy." Zelda sighed.

"He married a rancher named Malon and founded Ordon. I would tell you what he did those ten years, but I sort of didn't pay attention..." I told her with a shrug. Zelda stared at me with a frown.

"That doesn't give any closure to this story…" Zelda began to say before she was interrupted by Midna, who had obviously gotten sick of tired of us and had drifted away to where a bunch of soldiers were standing around a table.

"Hey! Something is going on at Lake Hylia! Apparently the lake dried up or something..." Midna called over to us. Zelda and I looked at each before walking to the table where she was at.

"That's not good. Lake Hylia is the domain of the Zoras." Zelda mused worriedly. "I hope nothing ill has befallen them." Midna frowned as she studied the map.

"Well we best go there and find out, shouldn't we?"

XxXxXxXxXxXx

We left town and headed east and started to head across the bridge over Lake Hylia.

"Smells funny here." I commented as Zelda and I watched Midna looking over the railing in awe, yelling about how Lake Hylia was a puddle. Zelda sniffed the air.

"You're right. Kind of smells like that powdery stuff that goes in the bombs to make them go BOOM! You know…what's the word I'm looking for…" Zelda agreed, scratching her head in aggravation.

"FIRE!" Midna screamed and I turned around to see a monster holding a stick of fire, and my eyes widened as the little creep put it to the ground, setting it on fire. I spun around to start to sprint to the other edge of the bridge only to see the same thing.

"I really don't think that…oh." Zelda began to retort to Midna before she too saw the flames come at us. "Well…damn. I never thought I would be burned alive."

"There must me a way out, help me look!" I freaked out, look all over the bridge. Zelda looked at me with a frown and looked over to Midna.

"Oh there is, but it requires a 150 foot jump into a puddle of water." She told my dryly.

"We don't go any other options, let's go!" I yelled, grabbing her sleeve with my teeth and pulled her toward the edge. I climbed up on the ledge, Zelda right beside me, and jumped hoping to all the goddesses that I hit the water.

Ruki44: Well um, does anybody have anything to talk about?

Ruki: No.

Rukia: Nope

Tetra: Nah.

Hinata: The latest chapter to Naruto sucked!

Ruki44: 0.o Eh????

Ruki: Pretty much, though I never thought I would hear you say it.

Rukia: Ha ha! Bleach right now is pretty much epic! But do tell why it sucks.

Hinata: I know I want Naruto to be safe, but really! That was kind of lame. The guy destroys Kohana, almost kills me, and he's easily wavered by Naruto's words. I mean I know Naruto is pretty amazing and special and is pretty much sweet ass...but Pein is like EVIL and like Sasuke is like REVENGE!

Ruki: Well its obvious that Madara is the main bad guy here. I mean first it was Itachi, then Orchimaru, then it was the Atasuki, then it was Pein, now its Madara. I'm pretty sure it was Madara from the start. I mean he got Itachi to kill his family, he started teh Atasuki, I don't know what he did to Pein but he must have done something.

Rukia: What about Orchimaru?

Ruki: He was pretty much there.

Tetra: Kind of sad if you think about it. What is Naruto about anyways? First is was about this kid who wants to be a village leader but was like hated, then it was about that kid rescuing his emo loser best friend who betryaed him, then it was about rescuing that best friend and stopping the Atasuki, now its about peace on earth.

Hinata: I dunno any more. I'm just along for the ride.

Rukia: And to marry Naruto.

Hinata: I hope so, that would be sweet if that happens! ^^

Rukia: Well you already confessed your undying love to him, that's a start. Now you just have to wait for the reaction.

Hinata: That's going to be pretty much akward.

Ruki: Pretty much.

Ruki44: Anyways, thanks to that have reviewed ^^. And those who havent, please review!
