Linda's mini quest

Chapter 3: Names, and surprises.

Author's notes:

~ Flare: Okay. Someone had complained about Link's mother being dead. Just in case, through my mind is the point that Impa is Link's mother. I know they don't look anything alike, I'm well aware of that, but it's kind of strange. It sort of makes sense. Well, enough rambling. Hope that clears up the little question of 'Wasn't Link's mom dead?' On with the story!

Avi and Evi left in search of their mother. Navi was easily found and agreed to take them to see Link. They quickly departed to the castle. There they were surprised to see a few guards around the whole castle. They quickly asked the guard at the gate where Link and Zelda where.

"The king and queen left early to Kakariko village to spend some time at the Moonlight festival. The rest of the guards happen to leave just a while ago for the same reason." He explained.

The fairies thanked the guard and left to Kakariko village. At the village the fairies searched high and low for the royal couple, without being able to find them anywhere. It was already mid-day, so they went to rest on the crates in front of Impa's house. At that same moment, Link and Zelda walked out of the house. Link saw the fairies and Zelda approached them to see what they where doing.

The three fairies had stopped their usual colored light to rest up. The twins stretched and lay down to rest. Navi was the first to notice Link and Zelda.

"Link! Zelda! Where have you two been? We've been looking all morning for both of you!!" Navi exclaimed, starting to float around Zelda with her blue glow.

"We've been inside the house cleaning up all morning." Link explained.

"We where going to get some groceries for today's lunch. Want to come along?" Zelda asked.

"Sure, I guess." Navi replied, and quickly turned towards the twins. "Avi, Evi, come on."

The twins started to glow their pink and purple color and followed their mother. Everyone went shopping and returned ten minutes later. Zelda left the food on the kitchen for Impa to work with, and went to join Link outside.

"So, who are these cute little girls?" Zelda asked.

"These are Avi, and Evi. Your daughter's guardian fairies." Navi explained.

"Aren't Kokiris supposed to have one guardian fairy?"

"I think so." Link answered.

"Then how come she has two?" Zelda asked.

"It's a long story." Navi said.

"Yeah, and we need to ask you something before you three get too entertained with it." Avi said.

"Saria asked if you guys were going to name the little princess, since she's already two years old, soon to be three." Evi added.

"We seemed to have forgotten that, haven't we?" Link asked, and Zelda nod in response.

"Why not call her Linda?" Impa asked, standing at the now opened door.

"It sounds good to me." Zelda said, and Link agreed.

Suddenly Saria appeared, little Linda in her arms asleep.

"You guys take too long!" She exclaimed giving the girl to her mother. "She's kinda heavy for me to carry by myself too."

"Sorry." The twins replied.

"Well, at least I came here. Without you two the little princess has been crying and not listening to me all day. She almost tipped the whole weapons' trunk! That almost scared me." Saria said. "Then a few minutes ago, before deciding to come here, she did tipped over the weapons' trunk and appeared from under the mess giggling happily! I swear I almost fainted."

The twins where laughing non-stop, until Navi told them to stop.

"How cute!" Zelda squealed happily, as Linda woke up and giggled at her.

"She like everyone except her babysitter." Saria muttered.

"Is that so? But you've got to admit, she is really cute." Impa said, followed by a nod from Link and Saria.

Zelda, Avi and Evi played with Linda as the rest settled down to hear Navi's story.

Apparently (to make things short than it already is) Navi's baby was going to be Linda's guardian. After they where born, everyone noticed that they where twins, but the Deku Tree said that a special girl deserved special fairies. So that's about it (lol).

Anyway, Impa returned to work in the kitchen as the rest continued playing with Linda outside. Navi also explained about how Avi always tails Evi around ever since they where little, so the Deku tree (finding it cute) left them together to be the first twin fairies and the first to be a small girl's guardian fairies.

When lunch was done everyone ate and then played some more with Linda until it was late noon. Everyone said their goodbyes. Zelda and Link left Linda with Saria, maybe because Link wanted her to grown up kindhearted like him. Zelda agreed a little doubtful, but she was sure Linda would be alright in the forest. She also made sure to promise to come visit.

Months later, on Linda's third birthday, Zelda and Link visited her. Link though it was a good time to show her around some spots in Hyrule. So they went to Kokiri forest.
