Pix-"I think it's time that we move on."

Stitch-"So when do we get like our brief introduction?"

Pix laughs-"When you are ready, and when you are ready then you and I will know it."

They start walking into the darkness of the hole, walking step by step hearing silence at it's best.

Blade whispers into Stitch's ear-" How can we be sure to trust this 'thing'?" Pix picks the conversation up.

Pix-" You have no choice, you have to do it for Hyrule, and if you fail then Ganon will succeed."

Blade-" Haha I'd hate to be the person beating that guy" Blade chuckles to himself. All of a sudden the smell of the air did not quite fit…A figure leached out of the corner.

Pix-"Oh no Blade watch out!!" Pix and Stitch try to free Blade from the black hooded mage, but it seemed hopeless, the mage was too powerful and had already started disappearing.

Stitch-"noo..whe..er did they take him? We might be able to catch him."

Stitch runs forward but his only surprise was the darkness in which he was in silence.

Stitch-"What now! We will never win now!, what if that dude comes around here again and kidnaps another one of us!"

Pix-"… calm down Stitch, lets be prepared this time, don't worry I have a feeling, Blade is a strong boy.."

Stitch-"Noo! I won't let that horrid thing take my friend like that!"

Pix-" Common Stitch if we want to put up a fight with Ganon's gang then we better train for it."

Stitch settles down-"I guess.."

They walked close together as they never said a word onwards, the only thing that was busy was their minds.

Pix-"We are close to Kirk Town Stitch, this is were you will be training with Opela." Stitch nodded as he was watching his feet step by step and admiring the amount of dirt on the walls.

Stitch-"So much has happened to me, and I haven't done anything yet, it's not fair." Pix did not answer as he thought it was better to leave Stitch for a while.

Stitch mumbled again-"Why didn't you do anything,"

Stitch frowned "I want to go home"

Pix-" Stitch I can't fight black magic for you, only you have that potential, even now I can see that you will be a strong fighter, but besides from fighting physically you have to fight those little problems you encounter also." Stitch kicks a rock while walking and doesn't hesitate to answer.

Pix-"It's best we hurry, Ganon knows we are here and he most likely knows were we are heading."

It had atleast been a days walking and Stitch was complaining about his sore feet. Pix-" Stitch I need rest soon, my energy is getting weak"

Stitch-"That's alright we can make camp," … . ."Why do I feel so lonely Pix…"

Pix-" Come on Stitch we will train you to be a man, you will not need to feel lonely, and by the time we get Blade back, you won't have to be upset no more, don't worry it'll be alright."

Stitch clenches his fists and tilts his head up.

Stitch-"I am going to be a man"

Pix-"adaboy"

Stitch makes a camp out of old cloth and some fire wood he found while playing, Pix returns to Stitch with a long relief, but knowing a fresh start to the day would come.

Stitch whispers-"Hang on Blade I will get you back, that's a promise!"

Stitch finds a comfortable place in the rags and snuggles up, with his eyes staring at the ceiling, slowly shutting.

After sleeping a good night's sleep, Stitch as usual tends to get a bit lazy in the morning and feels the need to sleep in.

Pix-"wake up Stitch! We are nearly there"

They pack and start walking again, with Stitch looking slightly dopey but both walk slightly faster then usual. As they walk faster and faster, the light infront of them seemed lighter and lighter as the darkness had drifted away, and the light had made them happier.

Stitch in a happy voice-"Hey Pix, that's Kirki Town am I right?"

Pix-" yes, but there is someone we are going to meet before we get there.."

Stitch takes out his wooden sword

Pix-"no no put that thing back, besides that thing couldn't hurt a fly" Pix giggles. Stitch draws his sword back. They get closer to the light, and eventually they find a small figure around Stitch's height. Stitch runs forward and is eager to see sunlight once more.

Figure-"Halt right there!" Stitch seemed frightened and clung close to Pix, which was not far behind, the figure seemed as though it was a strange looking boulder.

Figure-Ahh, is that..PIX? is that you??? Long time no see buddy!"

Pix-"Haha Xyther, it's nice seeing you again"

Xyther-"haha so what are you doing in Kirki Town?"

Pix-"Actually it's Stitch here we are going to train"

Xyther-"Oh yes, this is the best place to train hehe although you do need some outside experience too boy"

Xyther rubs his hair so that it had looked very scruffy."By the time your 15 you'll be ready for anything"

Xyther stepped aside and let them pass into the town. Kirki was a place were a lot of people had lived, Stitch could here children play, play fight and train While you could hear a sudden song in the air, the tune of an ocarina.

Stitch walking, "What's that soun.."

Pix interrupted-" I think it's time we got you some new gear" giggling. "That wooden sword of you will do no good, and you do well with some armour."

Stitch was too excited about the town to notice, everything was so peaceful in the town, and everybody got along well and most of the training lessons looked kinda cool. Stitch and Pix were both walking in the village and Stitch notices there is two kinds in this town, funny rock looking people and small elves.

Pix-"You go get yourself some gear, here's 200 Rupies, I have to talk to Bupel, that lives over there." Pix points to Bupel's house, the shows him where the shop is. As Pix flies to the opposite direction to Stitch, Stitch still is dazzled at how the elf looking people could be so small. After looking at them, and the elf people staring back for a while, he walked his way into Kirki Shop. This was a little hut strangely similar to the one back at Gooseberry Town.

He enters and finds the hut shinning from the reflection of the metals. The Girl at the counter giggles.

Girl-"You must be Stitch right?"

Stitch was too dazzled at the stuff that he did not answer. The girl bites into an apple.

Girl-"I hwerd ywou [munch] were goiwin to defweat Ganon" Stitch eyes opened, Stitch-" Yer I guess it's up to me"

Girl-" Is Pix around??"

Stitch-"Well yer but he just went into Bupel's hut,"

The girl finishes her apple.

"Tell me, what can I get for 200 rupies, I mean I need.." The girl giggles again.

Girl-" Look, don't tell anyone but I'll get you some things for half the rupies you have." Stitch smiles and replies, "ok", as he still looks around at the metal.

As the girl gets the armour down,

Girl-" You know my father works at the Metal building place" Stitch had a glance of the girl then, she looked slightly younger then he did, Stitch become slightly upset.

Stitch-"Both my parents died" The Girl gives the armour, sword and accessories to him.

Girl-" I'm sorry, so you grew up without them then?"

Stitch-"Yea" Stitch gives 100 rupies to the girl and takes the gear with him.

Girl-"It must be hard for you" Stitch seemed interested in the bracelet she was wearing. The girl notices.

Girl-"Daddy made that for me, I got it after the training"

Stitch-"I'm doing training soon, what's your name?"

Girl-"Zilga"

Stitch-"hey I'll see you around Zilga, I'll be training here for a while" Zilga smiles and Pix comes in.

Pix-"Alright Stitch I got you some lessons in training, Opela is not back yet but Bupel will train you for a while." Zilga smiles at pix and stitch when they leave.

Pix-"Shinny aren't they?"

Stitch-"yeah she's amazing"

Pix laughs-"not her, I suggest stop day dreaming! heheh"

Stitch starts to blush.

Pix-"Alright let's start the training shall we?"

Stitch looks up and at the beautiful gardens where the training will be. He saw plants and trees, stumps and shooting rinks, but the thing that made Stitch think was the amount of Decu nuts scattered around the place.

Pix-"You won't need that armour till later alright Stitch." Both Stitch and Pix wait sitting on a log for Bupel to come along.

Stitch-" uh, Pix.. since I'm not coming back to Gooseberry Town, I might as well know why I'm here."

Pix-"ok Stitch, I heard gossip that Ganon had made a potion that changed his appearance, he used this to illusion himself as Link, and fooled Zelda. I know that they had a child , and I know that was not the Link I knew, we have a suspicion that is Ganon, as he escaped from the tri-force. That I do not know how it happened, but that they had a daughter, her name is Aquila. That's as far as I know so far, but I know also that the dark forces have linked trapped somewhere in his lair in the woods."

Stitch-"And most likely ..Blade aswell."

Pix-"You are very important to us." There was a sudden pause in the air then a small looking elf came along, he looked old and wise.

Pix-" Bupel you're here, Stitch is ready"

Bupel-"[Cough cough] So this is Stitch ey? Let's get you some basic training ey."

Pix returns to Stitch.

Stitch-"I'm ready" Stitch and Bupel walk towards the sign, 'Jumping'. Stitch slightly laughs.

Bupel-" Heh you think it's easy? I want you to jump from the stump onto that tree." Stitch thinks for a while and gets on the stump and jumps onto the tree.

Bupel-"Right now from the tree swing on the branch of the next tree and land on the last stump."

Stitch's eyes widened slightly but felt brave enough to do it. Eventually after doing it a few times he finally succeeded, puffing.

Stitch-"phew."

After this Bupel made him do some other jumps to make sure that he was fit enough.

Bupel-"Right lets do some defending now shall we" Stitch smiled as though he was waiting for this,

Stitch-"Sure!" Stitch pulls out his shield, and Bupel started to fight stitch with his wooden sword.

Stitch-" Haha I'm good at this" Bupel-"I was just being easy on you."

Bupel had increased his speed magnificently so that Stitch could not predict his moves so easily. Finally Stitch dropped his shield and Bupel was pointing his sword at Stitch's neck. Stitch was starting to get nervous, this guy wasn't just an old bag, he was knew what he was doing! Bupel drew his sword back,

Bupel-" I see that you have a fine skill but we need to work on your speed.

After a long day, Stitch had jumped, fought and Shielded quick attacks and he looked ready for the outside world. Stitch smiled, Pix came out.

Pix-"Finished training already?"

Bupel-"He is good, he will need experience"

Pix-"I know I know we will leave soon as Opela comes back."
