Agitha watched Lana trace her finger across her map, finding the perfect route for attack. The plan they had at Cia's temple was obviously a failure.

"We can't go in so boldly," she explained to the others around her. "We have to split up next time. Being clumped together makes us an easy target, especially at the entrance. Maybe if we have some of our troops distract them, we'll send in the next batch with Link to get the Master Sword. Then we can defeat Cia right then and there?"

Impa folded her arms across her chest sternly. "Perhaps, but is what you say true? Did Cia create clones of Link's past lives for the fight?"

"Yes," Lana answered. "They're all very powerful and dangerous. I don't think they even realize they're fakes. So we need to send our strongest warriors to take them out before we do anything else."

Agitha kicked her heels against the concreate wall beneath the ledge she was sitting on. Their makeshift base on the outskirts of Death Mountain was pretty pathetic and could be easily destroyed. She scribbled a letter to the Hero of Twilight on a notepad, telling the others she was copying Lana's plans.

Dear Grasshopper,

Agitha got a lot of information for you for helping her bugs to the ball! Our base is really weak and is located on the north side of Death Mountain. You can't miss it. Also, Lana thinks you're clones of this world's Grasshopper. That obviously isn't true. If you were Cia's clones, you would've hurt Agitha!

I hope you come take me to your side soon, Grasshopper. I would rather be with you. Everyone here treats Agitha like she's odd, especially Miss Kitty! She called Agitha a weirdo! Some people just don't know manners.

Please be safe on your way here. Our army is planning on coming to the temple again with a different formation in about three days, so you must come before then. They want a Master Sword Cia is hiding. Don't let Lana's Grasshopper near it!

Sincerely,

Princess Agitha of the Bug Kingdom

P.S. I'll bring you lots of bugs next time we meet!

Satisfied with her letter, Agitha released a Goddess Butterfly from her bottle and tied it to the bug's body.

"Agitha knows this must be uncomfortable," she sighed apologetically. "Sorry. But you must take this to the Hero of Twilight at Cia's temple." She allowed the butterfly to dart out the window, giving her thanks as it left.

"What was that?" a voice suddenly asked out behind her.

"Oh, Miss Kitty!" Agitha grinned. "I sent fake information to the enemy. I said we'd be attacking in two weeks and that our base is in the Water Temple."

Midna, or "Miss Kitty" as Agitha liked to call her, smiled cockily. "Hey, looks like you have a brain up there after all. Maybe you could actually turn out to be useful." The imp slapped a hand on the Bug Princess's back. "Just don't get in the adult's way during fights, okay?"

"Alright…" Agitha huffed. "Um, Miss Kitty, can I ask you something?"

"First of all, don't call me 'Miss Kitty,'" Midna snapped. "And yeah, you can."

"You see, Lana said this clone Cia made of the Hero of Twilight might very well know you because he's probably based off what she saw as the Guardian of Time. And Lana said you two were very close during that. So…how come you don't recognize Grasshopper?"

"It's simple," Midna shrugged. "I'm not from the same dimension as that Midna. In my version of the story, Link and I worked apart. He completed the temples the Light Spirits told him to, and I swooped in and claimed the Fused Shadow or whatever. I never had any kind of emotional connection with him. I was just using him 'til the end. That other Midna was being stupid. She even almost died while she was with him and the princess had to save her! But look at me. I'm fine!"

"Were you turned into an imp back then too?" Agitha asked curiously.

"Nah. This is my first time in this form," Midna grimaced. "But once I defeat that witch I'll turn back."

Agitha hung her head. She and Midna had come from the same dimension, unlike many others on their team. However, that meant nothing as they'd never crossed paths. But the Hero of Twilight often came to visit. She could still remember the first time she met him…

Agitha stared longingly at the tree in the middle of her home. It was dusk now, the time she put on the invitation for the ball. But where were all the bugs? None of them showed up! The letters must've gotten lost somehow. That Postman could be so clumsy with his main sometimes.

She had gone out to the market an hour ago to ask if anyone had seen the bugs, but they all avoided her. Sometimes commoners didn't find themselves worthy to speak with a bug princess. It could be so inconvenient.

Agitha was snapped out of her thoughts by a knock on her door. One weak knock. She carefully approached her door and let out a small, "Who is it?"

"I'm sorry to bother you," someone apologized from the other side of the door quietly. "But could you please let me in?"

"What's the matter?" Agitha asked. "Are you lost?"

"No…not exactly."

Agitha's eyes lit up. Perhaps it was one of her bug friends coming for the ball! She flung the door open, at first excited to see a giant grasshopper, but her smile faded when she realized what was really in front of her.

It was a boy much taller than her clothed in green. The white sleeves of his undershirt were stained red and he was holding his left elbow. Blood trickled from his mouth as he made an attempt to smile.

"I'm really sorry about this…" he apologized again. "But can I take a few minutes to catch my breath?"

"A few minutes?" Agitha repeated hotly. "You're staying the night! Look at the condition you're in!"

She grabbed him by his belt and yanked him into her quaint home.

"Wait," the boy interrupted. "Don't you have to ask your parents first? I don't want to come in uninvited…"

Agitha shot him a stern, motherly look. "Don't be so polite at a time like this! I live alone anyway. Now you sit down over there. I know the seats are a bit small, but it has to do."

She pushed him into a child-sized wooden chair at a round table she used for tea parties. He appeared very surprised by how accepting Agitha was of inviting him into her home. But she couldn't just turn him away! He must've been on the verge of dying!

"Would you like any tea?" she offered hastily, already reaching for the pot on her stove. "I was just preparing some."

"Um, could I just have some water instead?" the boy asked sheepishly. "If you don't mind."

"Not at all." Agitha grabbed a cup from her cupboard and poured water into the glass. She placed it in front of her guest properly. "Oh, how rude of me!" she realized. "I haven't introduced myself. You have an audience with Agitha, Princess of the Bug Kingdom." She curtsied politely. "And who might you be?"

"My name is Link," he answered kindly. "Thank you for letting me in."

"It was nothing," Agitha giggled with a wave of her gloved hand. She picked up a washcloth from her kitchen area and soaked it in a bucket of water. "Is it okay if I help clean you wounds?"

"You don't have to…" Link said shyly. "It's not anything too bad."

"Nonsense. You look like death itself!" She pulled up another chair next to him and gingerly placed the damp cloth on his bleeding arm, causing him to wince at the pain. "I know it hurts, but it has to be done. I'll go as fast as I can."

"Thank you." Link smiled at her, embarrassed that this little girl was going out of her way to help.

"…May I tell you something?" Agitha asked hesitantly.

"Anything."

"Well, I know this may seem odd to say to a stranger, but it's bothering me quite a bit. I was planning on hosting a ball for all my bug friends tonight. None of them showed up, though. I don't understand what happened. I assume the invitations got lost somehow. Now I can't host the ball. I was looking forward to it so much too…"

Her expression turned sorrowful as she removed the washcloth from Link's arm.

"I'll find them for you," he offered suddenly.

He head shot up excitedly. "You will? Oh, you don't have to. You surely have more important things to do with your time."

"I do," Link admitted. "But I travel a lot. Just give me a list of the bugs and where I can find them and I'll get them all eventually."

"Ah, well, that's not really you're responsibility, but if you want to…" Agitha gently touched the cloth to a bloody spot on his cheek. Her face flushed red as she realized what she was doing. She quickly patted the spot clean and moved onto his other arm.

"You know…" she continued hastily. "You're the first person to visit me in a very long time. Actually, you're my first visitor ever."

"Ever?" Link repeated, astonished. "You're a little girl living alone and no one is helping you? People these days… Well, I'll come see you whenever I come to visit. I promise."

Agitha's face turned even redder at his words. "Oh… Thank you very much."

Link reached over and placed a hand on her head. "It's alright. I'm happy to spend time with you. And I'll bring you all kinds of bugs for your ball, even ones you didn't ask for."

The big princess smiled in response. "I'd like that very much."

"Hey, Agitha!"

Agitha flinched in surprise as she heard someone shouting for her. She turned around to see the Link of her army approaching her.

"Lana was calling for you a second ago," he informed her. "Didn't you hear her?"

Agitha felt her cheeks burn once more as she looked down at the floor, embarrassed. "I'm sorry. Agitha was just thinking about going back home. What if her Link goes to visit and she's not there?"

"It's alright," Link assured her with a smile. "We'll have you back before he even noticed you're gone."

Agitha slumped her shoulders a bit as she studied his expression.

His smile looks just like my Link's, she thought with a shred of sadness.

Indeed, both their smiles were filled with kindness and even a bit of innocence. Sometimes it could be odd what fascinated the Link of Agitha's era. Sometimes he would bring in a cat he found from the street with a child-like grin on his face, one that not even Agitha herself could rival. It was as if all of the hardships and sorrow he experienced from his travels were wiped away just like that.

"Link," she called as he began to walk towards the rest of the group. "Does Agitha help the group very much?"

Link laughed good-naturedly and patted her head. "Of course you do. You and your Goddess Butterfly have helped a lot more than some other members of the group."

Midna slapped him in the back of his head with her hair. "Don't think I didn't catch that," she growled.

Link rubbed the back of his head apologetically. "You don't miss anything, Midna."

Agitha gazed contently at Link and Midna's bickering. There were always those two that argued sarcastically and made the group feel like a real family. They were like siblings to her. But as much as Agitha liked him, she liked her Grasshopper as lot more. Grasshopper was the only one to willingly visit her. This group was kind of stuck with her.

Don't worry, Grasshopper, Agitha thought, hoping he could somehow hear her. I'll help you out any way I can. Even if it means betraying this team.

*Seriously, I can't be the only one who absolutely loves Agitha! She's so cute! And for those of you who think I'm setting up a romance between Agitha and "Grasshopper," don't worry, this is as far as it goes. I always thought it would be sweet if Agitha had a crush of TP Link. :3

Agitha: I love Grasshopper! *pulls out butcher knife* We'll be together forever. Riiiiiiight~?

Wolf Link: *anime sweat bead* Oh, yeah, sure…

TP Zelda: Back off! He's MINE!

Young Link: Daw~! My grandson gets all the babes. :)

Anywho, next time we'll be going back to Cia and the Links. Be sure to review! I'm lonely. =w=

K bye.*
