Chapt. 2

Link walked along, and came upon a large building. There were several people outside it, talking and joking. He looked up, and near the top of the building, was a few words.

".South S.S.. what's S.S. stand for?" he asked himself, and a few of the people looked at him.

"Secondary School, dummy." Said one boy, regarding him quizzically. "What did you think?"

Link shrugged and a woman in her mid 50's came out of the front doors.

"Scatter!" said the same boy again, and all the people hurried out of the area to avoid being scolded by the woman.

The woman walked up to Link. "And what do you think you're doing?" she asked him. "Shouldn't you be in class?" Link stared at her. "Well?"

"Class? Do you mean training? I've already proven my swordsmanship." He said.

"Ha ha." She said. "Very funny young man. It's time to get to classes." She grabbed his shirt and dragged him into the building.

"Hey! What-!?" Link gets pulled behind the woman, who was surprisingly strong for an old lady. "..."

"What's your name? I don't think I've seen you before." Asks the lady.

"Uh. my name's Link." He replies.

"Link? Link what?" She snaps.

".." Link didn't have a last name(at least that I've found), so he went with the first thing that came to his mind. "Link Kokiri." He said.

"Kokiri? That's an odd name." She didn't say anything about Kokiri being the Forest Children, which Link thought was probably a good thing. "Are you even registered?" she asked. They had gotten into the office, and she was looking through a file cabinet. "I can't find any 'Kokiri' here."

Link stared at her, straightening his shirt, which she had made a mess of. "No. I'm NOT registered."

"Alright, we'll register you." She said. "I know your name and stuff, you can go to class. There's an opening in the math class. portable six. Your teacher will be Mrs. Dunt."

Link started to argue, but she pointed at the door in such a way that made him not want to disagree with the lady. He nodded reluctantly, and went outside. "Portable six? What's a portable?" he saw a little sign in a window of a small brown building, and it said 'portable 6'. He shrugged and walked over to the door.

Inside, they were discussing angles.

"All right. And opposite angles are equal, and corresponding.." Mrs. Dunt was saying. Ashley was writing it all down. Too much math! She thought. Can't we do something else? She was bored with doing the stupid assignments and everything. Ashley was a young girl, in grade nine, with blue eyes, and brown hair. She was pretty plain, except for her little secret.

The door to the portable opened, and Ashley thought it was yet ANOTHER late student. Mrs. Dunt got pretty angry with the latecomers. A boy with blonde hair, and stunning eyes came into the portable, looking annoyed. He looked almost lost as well.

Wow. new student? She wondered, watching the boy carefully.

"yes?" asked Mrs. Dunt. The boy walked up to her. Ashley heard most of the conversation.

"Uh, I'm sorry to interrupt, but I'm a. new student." said the boy. Mrs. Dunt nodded.

"You can sit with Ashley. She'll introduce you to some of the other students, and show you around the school." She motioned to a desk beside Ashley, and the boy nodded, making his way towards her and the desk.

"Hi." he said nervously.

"Hi." She replied, smiling. There was something about him that made her wonder.

"I'm Link." He said. He wondered why he ever even came to the classroom anyway. He could have just left. Maybe he wanted to know more about where he was?

"Ashley." She said, shaking his hand. Link set his bag of equipment down, but kept his hand on it, making sure no one took it. All his weapons were in there, and his good clothes. "What school did you come from?" she asked.

"Um, I don't know the name of it." he said. Ashley stared at him.

"You don't know the name of your old school?" she said inquiringly, and Link shook his head. "Alright.but that's kind of odd."

"SHHHHHH. Ashley! Pay attention." Said Mrs. Dunt, as she wrote things up on the blackboard. Ashley shut up and copied it down. Link didn't seem to have come with anything but what was in the bag.

"Aren't you going to copy it down?" she asked him. Link looked at the board.

"With what?" He replied.

"Paper and pen?" she said, handing him some paper and a blue pen.

After class, the bell rang. Ashley got up, and Link handed her the pen. "Thanks." He said, even though he didn't get very much on the paper. They left the class together, Ashley insisted on introducing him to her friends. It was Lunch period, and Link didn't have a lunch, so Ashley gave him helf her sandwich, which he looked at oddly.

"What's wrong?" she asked him. The sandwich was sliced turkey meat and cheese.

"I've never. had anything. like this." he replied, as they walked to a table towards three other people.

"Man, what country are you from?" she said.

Link was about to reply 'Hyrule', but she said hi to her friends first.
