Sorry, everyone… I really am sorry. It does take a while to type my story, and especially since I've had more homework recently. But now, I FINALLY got the names of the characters I need, so I can finally type this chapter. Thanks for reading!!!

Chapter 10

I wake to the sound of rustling, and turn around to see Link getting up. I stretch, then start rolling up my stuff. Link and I don't talk, because there is nothing to talk about, we are tired, and we have to get out of here. Fast. After last nights battle, we realized that Gandondorf knows where we are, so we ran back to camp, only to be confronted by more monsters. We had to fight out way out, then run out to the desert. After hours on end of fighting, we managed to elude then destroy the leaders, which made it easy to get away from the grunts. Now we are here, tired and cranky.

"Lets go…" Link says as he finishes packing up. I watch as he lifts his large, brown sack onto his back, then starts walking. I snap out of my trance, then grab my bag and catch up to him. We approach a hill, then automatically circle around it as we realize that we would fall asleep on the way up because we are so tired.

" Lets find a real place to sleep tonight." I suggest as we travel we trudge through the hot, gold sand of the Haunted Wasteland desert.

"But where…" He answers in a hoarse voice. I contemplate that until we finish our walk around the hill and look down to an amazing sight. The desert turns to a green, joyful town with carefully carved wooden buildings and, a little to the left of the town, a ranch. We gaze at it wonderingly before Link smacks his head.

"I know this town!" He says "This is in Hyrule!! I stand there, staring, before finally realizing what he means and smacking my own head.

"We circled around and came right back to Hyrule!" I say, annoyed. We look and each other, then set off down the hill, angry all the way.

We reach the gate of the town, and walk through to find an amazing sight. A town square sits before out eyes, bustling with people. We walk through, and buy supplies.

"Wow." I whisper in awe as I look around at all the food stands. "I've never seen anything like this before in my whole lifetime!"

"That's because this is Hyrule!" Link says while biting into an apple "It's nothing like the other areas.".

Suddenly, a man comes barging through, yelling, "OUT OF MY WAY! THIS HORSE IS FOR LORD GANONDORF!" Everyone backs away. Everyone, of course, but Link and I.

"MOVE!" Screams the man, right in our faces. An anger starts boiling in me, and my fingers start inching towards the button that will push my spikes right into the man's stomach, but Link grabs my hand.

"No." he whispers. My hand goes down, but I don't stop my right arm from being pulled up. Luckily, I control myself enough to not blast him with magic.

Suddenly, Gerudo warriors pop out from hiding places and grab Link. I am pushed away, but still manage to keep my balance.

"No one…" I hiss "No one pushes me around.". Before even I know it, both the warriors holding Link are down, dead or alive I don't know. Link immediately springs into action, hacking away at them. Soon, all the warriors are on the dirt road, unconscious or worse. Link spins around only to stop dead at the sight of the horse the man was taking to Ganondorf.

"What?" I ask him.

"I know that horse…" he says.

Suddenly, another man pops up behind us and says\

"You can have him then!" Link stares at him, then takes the reins.

"WAIT!" the man taking the horse says "that horse is supposed to go to Ganondorf, and the boy doesn't even know the horse's name!"

"Epona." Link says "The horse's name is Epona." I stare at him, wondering how he knows that.

"The past…" He whispers to me, as if he knows what I'm thinking.

"Gaahhh..Gahhhh" Says the man with the horse.

Suddenly, the crowd breaks into a chant "Give him the horse. Give him the horse!"

The man is still gawking as we walk away.
