Reviews are nice.

This is where it gets depressing. For a few chapters. I have problems.

Ignore bad grammar. My sister helped.

Bite me.

Age 10

"Is that all you got?" Link yelled. Zelda stood panting in front of him.

"No." She said. She ran at him again, swinging her sword upward. Link blocked her. The danced back and forth threw the grass. It was late at night, and the goddesses were sleeping. The only way Zelda could train is when the goddesses weren't watching. Ganondorf watched intently.

"Aim for his weak points!" He yelled, coaching Zelda. She didn't respond to him, but instead scrutinized Link.

"I learned a new melody on the Ocarina!" She smiled.

"Really?" Link asked. Zelda lunged forward, slamming him in the gut with the hilt of her sword. He fell backward with a grunt and collapsed on the ground. His sword slid out of his hand. Zelda walked over and held out her hand to him. He grabbed it and she pulled him up. Ganondorf walked over.

"Not really what I meant, but good job." He said. Zelda smiled proudly.

"I know." She said. Link frowned.

"You're a bit of a gloater, aren't you?" He asked. Zelda just stood there smiling.

"So about that new melody…" Ganondorf said after a short pause. Zelda smiled again and pulled out the Ocarina.

"I don't really have a new one…" She said apologetically. Link shook his head.

"It's alright." He smiled. He reached for the Ocarina. Ganondorf did the same.

"I want to play it!" Link frowned.

"NO! I DO!" Ganondorf bellowed. Link and Ganondorf began screaming at each other.

"You still wet the bed!"

"NO I DON'T! You're a stupid hunk of…of…PIG!"

"STUPID!"
"MORON!"
"LOSER!"
"CREEP!"

"Guys, be quiet. The goddesses are going to hear you!" Zelda pleaded. They didn't hear her, and continued to scream at each other.

"Oh, we defiantly heard you." A deadly voice came from behind them. Nayru stood before them, towering above them with a deadly power. Din and Farore were behind her, each of them radiating the same deadly force. Link and Ganondorf stopped fighting immediately.

"Give me that Ocarina. Right. Now." Nayru breathed viciously. Zelda reached up to give it to her, and Ganondorf jumped at the occasion.

"I'll give it to you." He snatched it out of Zelda's hands.

"NO! Me!" Link protested, grappling for the instrument. The tumbled around on the ground, each of them trying to win dominance over the other.

The Ocarina flew out of their hands, and rolled down a small hill.

"NO!" Zelda yelled, flinging herself after the Ocarina. It rolled down and down, finally falling into a large hole. Zelda peered down it. What she saw amazed her. The whole land of Hyrule stretched beneath her, unfolding like a carpet.

The Ocarina tumbled out of sight, and landed on the roof of an old house. It fell inside, toppling down to the floor. An unsuspecting blue fairy slept on the bed of her old owner, dreaming of him.

"Ouch!" She yelped as the Ocarina landed on her. She flew out from under it and examined it.

"Oh. This…I know this. Does this mean…Is he coming back?" The small blue fairy flew over and touched the Ocarina. The small triforce on it conformed her suspicious.

"It is! The Ocarina of Time! He's coming back! He really is coming back!"

Link and Ganondorf crowded around Zelda. They all peered into the hole.

"Oops." Link said in a quiet voice. Zelda glared at him.

"Is that Hyrule Castle?" Ganondorf pointed to the towering white building.

"Yes." Farore snapped from behind them.

"Go to bed." Nayru growled. Link and Ganondorf got up, but Zelda stayed down.

"Zel…" Ganondorf touched her shoulder.

"Who's that?" Zelda pointed to Hyrule Castle. Everyone, including the Goddesses, looked. Hyrule Castle seemed to waver in front of their eyes, until it zoned in on one room. A small child, not over the age of one, was sleeping in the Queens lap.

"Who is that?" Zelda gasped at the goddesses, Nayru in particular. "That's the queen! But…is the little girl the princess? I'm the princess! I mean…you're my mom, but aren't I the princess?"

"Go to bed, Zelda. I'll explain in the morning." Nayru said softly. She ushered Zelda off to bed. The three Goddesses tucked the small children into bed. Then they went to the kitchen.

"How dare they!" Farore fumed, referring to the king and queen. She paced back and forth angrily. Din sat across from Nayru, her expression beyond bored. Nayru sat frigid, staring into space. She was struck dumb.

"How dare they have another daughter? This is just…This is just crazy!" Farore continued to rant.

"Farore, be silent. The children will hear you." Nayru said quietly. Farore stopped and looked at her sister. She sat down at the table.

"What will we do?" She asked urgently. Nayru shook her head.

"I don't know. It doesn't make any sense. Let's rest. Perhaps a solution will come in the morning." She stood up. Din snorted.

"No way. I'm taking care of that brat now!" she stood up and began walking to the door. Nayru grabbed her wrist and spun her around.

"You will not." She hissed. Din felt a strange fear in her heart at her sister's anger. "You will not kill this child. She is harmless. Could you not sense it? The new daughter did not bear the triforce. She is a nuisance. We will deal with her tomorrow. Our true concern is telling Zelda of everything. Her true birth." Nayru sighed and released Din's wrist. She turned and floated to her bed. Din and Farore stared at each other.

Zelda lay in bed, staring at the ceiling.

"Zelda?" Link turned over to face her. "Are you awake?" He whispered.

"Yeah…" Zelda muttered.

"Are you OK?" Ganondorf turned over too, looking sadly at her.

"I…Nayru told me I'm the only princess! But…I'm not. What if…what it I'm not a princess? What if that little baby is?" Zelda felt tears spring into her eyes.

"Zel. That baby isn't the princess. You are." Link said.

"How do you know?" Zelda sniffed. Link put his hand up, and pulled Zelda's hand up too. Ganondorf mimicked them. On the back of all their hands was the triforce, glowing softly.

"Nayru said that we all have these things because we're special. We're the only ones." Ganondorf whispered. "That little baby didn't have it. So you have to be the real princess." He smiled. Zelda smiled sadly and put her hand down.

"I guess…" She whispered.

"Yeah." Link said, nuzzling closer to her. "And you'll always be the best princess in the world to us." Ganondorf nodded and wiggled closer to Zelda too, sandwiching her between them. Zelda smiled and fell into a peaceful sleep.

Link and Ganondorf crept out of bed and walked silently down the hall.

"I feel real awful about losing the Ocarina." Link whispered. Ganondorf nodded.

"So, what are we doing again?" He asked. Link wrung his hands.

"Were going to find a new one." He said. "Zelda said she found it over here, in this room…"

They pushed open the door. It opened to reveal a vast room lit by torches. There was a pile of books off to one side. Along one wall were paintings, each accompanied by a pedestal and an object. One of the pedestals had nothing on top of it.

"No more?" Link said, feeling the bare pedestal. Ganondorf walked around. One painting showed four men, each wearing identical tunics but with different colors. On the pedestal was a sword, very much unlike Link or Ganondorf's sword.

Ganondorf moved on.

Link gave up on the empty pedestal and walked over to another. It was the first painting Zelda had seen.

On the pedestal were two strange diamonds. One was flat and smooth, and the other was 3-D and crumply. Link extended a hand.

"Don't touch it!" Ganondorf burst out, turning around from another painting, this one with the hero of winds. Link jumped back.

"Why not?" He asked.

"I… I don't like it." Ganondorf said. "I don't think we should touch it."

Link stared longingly at the two crystals.

"I can't be hurt just by touching it." He said indignantly. Ganondorf swallowed.

"I don't like it." he repeated. Link sighed.

"You're not the boss, Ganon. Zelda took the ocarina, so why can't I TOUCH this one?" Link crossed his arms.

"Al…alright. But just hold it for a few seconds." Ganondorf said. Link nodded.

He picked up the smooth diamond. Link yelped in shock as a feeling like suffocation shot through him, squeezing him tightly. He fell onto all fours.

Ganondorf was the only one who saw.

"DROP IT!" he yelled, as he watched his best friend start to change shape. He ran forward.

"DROP IT!!!" he screamed as he ran. Link tried to drop it, but it was pressing into his skin.

Ganondorf watched, horrified as Link turned completely black. He could tell what link was turning into. He grasped the black crystal that link held and tore it out of his flesh.

Link screamed in pain as if his own skin had been ripped off. Ganondorf was shaking uncontrollably. Link was no longer black, but his normal, human colors.

Ganondorf placed the crystal back on the pedestal, and reached down to help link up.

Link cringed.

"What… why didn't it hurt you?" He asked, pain coursing through his body freely.

Ganondorf did not know.

"Link, you became a…"

"I know."

Link stared at the floor. Ganondorf stared at him.

"Let's not touch anything else." Ganondorf whispered. Link nodded.

"It didn't show that I was damaged." Link said, staring at his hand. The tri-force shone on the back of it.

"Let's go back to bed." Ganondorf said. Link nodded, getting shakily to his feet. He felt like he had been electrified.

Link leaned on Ganondorf and they walked back to bed, both shaking.

Whatever could it have been?Lol.

I need help. Serious, serious help. It's such a sad story. I'm not motivated to write it anymore!

Bleh.

Give me encouragement or else.
