Link walked outside squinting from the sunlight, since he had been bedridden for the past week. His wound still ached but he was tired of resting, and happy to be outside again. It was a beautiful morning at the ranch, but as he was turning a corner...he saw... the Chickens! "Oh man..," he panicked, "Not those stupid chickens. They always atack me just because of that one little incident. Alright maybe I sorta tried to stomp em' all , but it was in a friendly way...yeah friendly...heh heh. "Okay Link,"he said aloud ," time to face those stupid chickens and show em' who's boss." He put his hat on with determination and charged the chickens, yelling and giving a war whoop like a madman..

Malon was coming out of the barn with fresh milk for breakfast, when she heard what sounded like a herd of horses. "What in Hyrule..." she mumbled as she peaked her head around the corner. "Link what are you-" she was cut of with a "Run RUN RUN!!" from Link. He grabbed her and they ran... right to a dead end. "Hide me!" Link wimpered as hid behind Malon, clutching her tightly.

She held the pails of milk up as to ward the mad chickens of, but they knocked them over and the milk poured all over Link and Malon, who were of course screaming. The chickens left them alone when they had satisfied their anger, and had won their victory. "Good morning" Link smiled inicently. Malon shot a nasty glare towards him that burned a hole. "Well you're the chicken gir, sooo I thought you'd know what to do.." he retorted. "Ha ha.. Well at least they're gone,"he tried to make her feel better but she bored holes into him with her eyes. That turned into a smile, and then to a giggle. "And what exactly are you laughing at.." *Snicker* "What!" "Must I,hehehe, answer you..heh, look at us!" she got out, not able to control herself anymore.

Link gave a lopsided grin and started laughing too. When they laughed all they could laugh Malon said mockingly ," Oh my brave hero, you have been defeated by the evil chickens...again.." she choked out. "Yes my fair lady but we got creamed together." heheheheh.

They got cleaned up and went to breakfast. Ingo was already sitting down, not looking too happy with the two of them .It was only him because Talon had left early to deliver milk to the castle.

Malon got in before Link and noticed Ingo glaring at her. "Malon, you lazy girl, can't you ever do anything! You're so clumsy, dropping the milk! Pathetic!" he yelled. "I'm sorry Mr. Ingo." "You and your father are so lazy! It's a wonder how this place is kept up! I do all the work around here..." he yelled. Ingo kept raising his voice. " Please! Mr. Ingo, we have a guest..h-he'll be here any moment! Please don't be rude." Malon begged, "I do everything around here!" "Y-yes, Mr. Ingo you do-" she said, trying to calm him down. He took a knife and slashed it on her arm,and nicked her jaw, causing her to drop the glass she was holding. She screamed, and as the glass shattered Link stepped in....
