Ariasx and Link walked outside of the glowing door. The Zora Tunic and Ariasx's bikini had vanished and returned with their normal clothing. Link was wearing his Kokiri tunic, and Ariasx had her black tank top and jeans back on. As they walked from the glowing light, the entire castle shook. Both Link and Ariasx grabbed their weapons. But Ariasx soon lowered hers.

"Marluxia." She said.

"Huh?" Link asked.

"Marluxia…he's…" Ariasx said. "Disappeared. He's no more. Sora destroyed Marluxia."

"You're kidding!?" Link said in amazement. "That's amazing! We can keep going without having to worry about the Nobodies."

"I know." Ariasx said.

Both she and Link grabbed each other's hands and jumped and down for joy. She then stopped at looked at Link.

"You know…" She said as she backed away a little bit. "It's funny. I used to think Marluxia cared about me. Always looked out for me. Now that I think about the stuff he said when we're together…he was making fun of me. For me being less of a Nobody…I was a better off without him."

"You're with me now." Link said. "If anyone tries to hurt you, I'll stop them."

Link grabbed his Master Sword and raised it high in the air.

"It's like I always say." Link said. "If a friend needs me to be there, I'll be there."

"Link…" Ariasx said.

She walked closer towards Link. As she did, she saw the Fairy Ocarina in Link's bag. Her eyes widened.

"An Ocarina!" She shouted.

She jumped on top of Link's shoulders and got where his bag was. Link struggled to get her off, but she kept her balance. She grabbed the Ocarina and flipped off. She then began to look at it. Link looked at her stunned.

"I didn't know you could play music." She said. "That's amazing."

"Really?!" Link asked. "You can play Ocarina?"

"Not really." She said. "I don't really play the Ocarina. But I love how it sounds. Can you play something?"

"Sure." Link said. "What do you want to hear?"

"Whatever you can play." She said.

Ariasx stepped back a bit from Link and then sat down. She put her arm on her chin and looked intently at Link. Since Link was now put on the spotlight, he couldn't refuse her. Since she had a similar appearance to Saria, the first music piece that popped in his head was the song Saria taught him all those years ago. He put the Ocarina to his lips and began to play. Ariasx sat down quietly, memorized by the soothing melody. Link played the song for a good minute. Ariasx let out a giggle and began to clap.

"My god." She said. "What a particular melody…"

"It was Saria's song." Link said. "She wrote it many years ago in the Lost Woods. She taught it to me as a sign of friendship. Whenever I play it, her voice would echo from across the field to mine…until this happened. Until these Nobodies took her…do…do you like it?"

"I do." Ariasx said. "Actually…it seems…familiar."

"Really?" Ariasx said.

"Yeah." She said. "I can't put my finger on it, but…I think I heard it before. It might have been from the times I met Saria…but she never played it or even hummed it."

"If you never heard it, how is it familiar then?" Link asked.

"I don't know." She said. "It just is. When I heard the song, I imaged a forest. Secluded far from society. I pictured a temple, growing in the middle of it. A forest child, sitting alone in the woods, humming a melody away."

Link stood there stupefied. Ariasx, a girl who had never seen Hyrule before, mapped out the environment of the Sacred Forest Meadow. Ariasx noticed his facial expression. She looked worried, hoping she didn't say anything wrong.

"What?" She asked. "What did I do?"

"How…do you know that?" Link asked. "Nobody knows about the Meadow other than me and Saria. You said it yourself; you barely knew the girl. Hell, the whole time you taunted to her as you said. How do you know all about the Sacred Forest Meadow?"

"What's that?" She asked.

"It's the place where Saria wrote the song." Link said.

"Interesting." Ariasx said. "It's funny I imagine a place like that when I heard it."

"Yeah." Link said. "We better keep going. There's still a lot more ground for us to cover."

Ariasx nodded.

"Your right." She said. "This is slowing us down."

Ariasx sat back up and the two began to walk up the stairs towards the next door. Link grabbed his next card, and held it in the air. The card vanished, and the door opened with more light pouring into it.
