A/N: More of Link's story. I'm sorry it has taken so long but I had the dreaded writer's block and when I finally finished the chapter, ff.n wounldn't let me log in! Anyway, after that strange rant, Link's story starts to unfold here. Disclaimer: I am not Miyamoto, although I'd very much like to be.

"Why were you so much older? What happened, Link?" "I'm getting to it Saria."

I couldn't understand, because although I was an adult to look at, my mind was still that of a child. Maybe even if I had the mind of an adult I wouldn't have understood. "Link, I have something I wish you to do." I turned around. Behing me stood a woman. She had hair which seemed grey, but was actually hundreds of black numbers on a white background. Her dress was decorated with billions of red lines, turning and crossing each other. As I watched, some dissappeared. She was the Goddess of Time. "What have you done to me?" I asked her. Only the Goddess of Time could make me an adult. "I have prepared you for what I want you to do. I will also give you all the knowledge you will need," she replied. "Why..." I began, and then I understood. She had given me the knowledge. I was to save my country from a terrible threat. Majora. An evil man, he was trying to find the power to summon the moon and destroy Termina. I had to find the Four Giants and tell them what was going on. Then I had to defeat Majora and seal his power away in a mask, which the Goddess of Time would send away to another time. "Well, won't this be fun!" I said sarcastically. "Saving Termina may not be fun, but you're obligated to do it and do it quickly. Hurry up, Link! You're just outside the entrance to Woodfall, where the first giant lives in his temple," the Goddess of Time said. So I walked into the forest. There were a few monsters, but I took care of them with my sword. Then I entered the swamp. It was a tropical paradise, with plam trees, and cool, clear water. No monsters lived here, I was certain of that. But somehow, something seemed very wrong... A strange creature pooped out of a flower next to me. It seemed to be part plant, part human. It spoke. "Hello. What are you doing in this swamp?" I decided to tell the strange creature the truth. "I'm looking for a giant. Call you help me?" "Well, I'm really sorry, but no. The giant is in the temple and I can't go there." "Well, thanks anyway." I started to walk away. "Hang on, mister, I can tell you where the temple is. It's in Woodfall. That's quite far from here, but the witches Koume and Kotake from the potion shop can help you more. They're just around that corner. "How am I supposed to get over there?" I asked. "Why, swim, of course." Great, I thought to myself. I have to swim in a tunic! It was my only tunic too, which made me even more grumpy. Nevertheless, I jumped into the cool water and swam the short distance to the shop. The potion shop was shaped like a ceramic teapot. It was raised above the water on stilts. I climbed the ladder and entered the shop. There was a sleeping hag at the counter, her huge eyes closed tight and her mouth open, snoring. She had a strange blue jewel decorating her forhead. "Excuse me," I said quietly, not wanting to alarm her. There was no response. "Excuse me," I repeated, this time a little louder. She was still asleep, although she had stirred a little. "EXCUSE ME!" I yelled at the top of my voice. She jumped and stared at me in alarm. "Why did you do that?" she asked. "I'm terribly sorry, madam, but you wouldn't wake up," I said ashamedly. I was embarrased at my outburst. "Well, that's OK then. I shouldn't have been sleeping on the job anyway. I'm Kotake. I make and sell potions here for travellers. My sister Koume is starting a boat cruise business. Soon she will be building her headquarters and a boat," she said. "I'll have to take the cruise when it is ready," I said. "Good. We don't get many customers here except the odd Deku or Zora. The Zoras like the water here. You look like you do too." Kotake smiled. I remembered how wet I must have looked to her. "Well, Kotake, do you know how to get to Woodfall?" "Yes, but I'd have to say it's safest to take the Deku shortcut." She went to the back of her shop and rummaged through some boxes some of which had spiderwebs and layers of dust on them. "Ah here it is," she said. She held up a bottle with a brown liquid in it. "This potion should turn you into a Deku for a short time only. It will last for approximately one day." "OK," I said. I took a sip of the potion, and nearly spat it out. It tasted disgusting, like eating wood. When I had swallowed it, I noticed my hands had changed. They were now brown and woody. I reluctantly gulped down the rest of the foul potion and looked at myself in a mirror Kotake help up. I still had my red tunic on, although the top part had been ripped. It was now only a pair of shorts. My head was rounder, and had a sort of a spout thing instead of my mouth and nose. My hair hid most of my forhead and my eyes were orange and yellow. The rest of my body was smaller than it usually was, brown and woody like my hands had been. I wore brown boots on my feet. I was a Deku, like the creature who had spoken to me before and I was going to Woodfall Temple.

A/N: Please review. I really like writing this, but I like getting reviews even more, and without reviews, I'll stop writing. You get that? No? Just review!
