Hey y'all. (No, I'm not from the South, I live in Massachusetts, thankyouverymuch.) Uh…There's not much to say so I'm not going to say anything.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything Zelda-related.

*Arden*

When I came to, I felt that the ground underneath me was cold and hard, not at all like the grass in Hyrule field. I opened my eyes, and the dark oak of my floor and smelled the polyurethane that covered the wood. I was home again! I slowly stood up. I was very sore, probably from coming through my T.V. so quickly. Man, that sounds funny. I looked around, thinking for a moment, then remembered Link. Link!!! Holy shit, did I lose him?! I looked over at the television screen. It had the Zelda game on the pause menu. What the fuck?! Was it all a dream? Did I dream that whole thing?! No! I couldn't have! Not in a million years! Did I just fall off the couch and conk my head on the floor? But I didn't really have a headache. I began to panic, and I felt my throat closing in.

"Link?" I called out quietly. There was no answer. I became more panicked. "Link? Link! Where are you?!" No reply. I ran behind my couch, searching frantically for him. "Link!!" I cried. My efforts seemed futile. I ran over and started pulling my bed to the side, to see if he was hiding down there or something. (Alright…it sounds weird, I know. Gimmie a break, okay?! I was nearly hyperventilating!) I called out his name as I searched everywhere. I couldn't believe this was happening. I needed to find him! "Link!" I bellowed, one last time, collapsing onto the bed. I hit something hard, and I heard a muffled groan.

"What?" My heart felt like there was a ton of stones being lifted off of it, and I beamed. I ripped off the pile of blankets and sheets that were in a big heap on my bed, (jeez, I would have made my bed if I had known…)

"Link!" I cried as I saw his face, eyes closed. I guess he was taking a nap or something. But I had woken him up.

"What? What the crap do you…" He opened his eyes. "Whoah…" I smiled. We had made it back, safely, together!! Hey, how come he got to land on my bed, and I had to land on the floor?! Crimety…

"Link! Link, I love you!" I exclaimed, showering him with dozens of kisses. He smiled, and kissed me back.

"Mmm!! Love you too…" he said, slower and slower as he gazed at the surroundings. "Arden? Wh-where are we?" he stammered, slowly rising to his feet. I sat up straight, and watched him.

"We're at my home…on…Earth…in the United States…in Eastern Massachusetts!" I exclaimed gleefully, jumping up. The boy was shocked. He slowly walked over to the television, and stared at it.

"Heeeeey…" he said, slowly. "Isn't that my…??" Eek! I ran over and shut the N64 off.

"Come on, Link, I wanna show you around my house!" I exclaimed, grabbing his hand. Then I remembered what we were wearing when my hand grasped the doorknob.

"Everything is so…oooooh…." he said slowly, peering into my fish tank.

"Wait!" I exclaimed as he headed towards the door. I closed it quickly. "You can't go out looking like that!" I exclaimed. He looked offended.

"And why not?" he asked, placing a hand on his hip.

"Er…Link…it's not you…it's just that…if you walk out of my house with a sword and…well…tights…people are going to get scared…"

"They're leggings!!" he cried. I smiled.

"I know I know. But remember the clothes I first wore when I came to Hyrule?"

"Yep."

"That's the kind of clothes we have to wear." His face turned white.

"I have to wear those short shorts and a little tunic and a…a…what did you call that black lace thing…a bra?" he asked, eyes wide. I burst into a fit of laughter.

"No no!! Girls wear those things…guys wear different stuff. Don't worry, babe, I got you covered," I said, taking off my weapons and gear and placing them on the floor in the corner. He did the same, reluctantly, and stood there. I opened my window, and the air that came in was moist and cool, a bit weird for June. I walked into my closet and pulled out a pair of jeans and a grey t-shirt, and to my dresser for clean a clean bra, and clean socks and underwear. He looked at me, puzzled, as I began to change. He had a sly grin on the whole time, but I was too happy to care, or to pick a fight with him. Once I was finished lacing up my favorite pair of boots, I turned to him.

"Now Link, promise me that you'll stay here until we come back, okay?" I asked, taking his hands and looking into his eyes.

"Wokay," he said, sitting down on the couch.

"Um…you can watch the T.V. if you want," I said pointing to the television before running out the door. I raced down the hall, and as I flew around the corner, I nearly smacked into my personal butler. (I told you, my parents were rich! President and Vice President of their own law firm!!)

"Excuse me, young miss!" my butler called, straightening out a bit. I laughed.

"Sorry, Jeeves!" I cried. His real name was Hubert, but I called him Jeeves cause of Ask Jeeves. And it pissed him off, too.

"I do wish you'd stop calling me that…" he mumbled, clearing his throat.

"Yeah, sorry, it's your nickname. But I've got no time for chit-chat, must be moving on!" I exclaimed, attempting to pass by. He put his arm in my way.

"If I may say so, miss, you haven't come out of your room for a few days now. Tell me, are you ill?" I looked up at him, confused.

"No…I…uh…" I struggled to come up with an excuse.

"You haven't come out of there any time during the day," he said, his eyebrow raised. "And the door was locked, the whole time."

"Yeah, well, I started this new thing, sleep all day, come out at night. I conducted myself normally, just, when everyone else was sleeping. Gave me some quiet time," I said lying through my teeth.

"Really?" he asked, skeptically.

"Uh….yeah! Completely! It's all the rage in…Morocco…gotta go!" I cried, dashing away from him. I ran down another long hallway and took another corner. I finally reached my cousin Ben's room, (he doesn't live with us, it's his room when he comes to visit), and swung the door open. He was about the same size of Link, I guessed, so I grabbed some of the clothes he kept there, jeans, a couple of nice shirts, boots, boxers, (I couldn't help but giggle stupidly, cause they were glow-in-the-dark), and a hat. (Picture…the Josh Hartnett hat…the one he wears to hide his mug from the press, lol.) I pulled some cash out of my wallet and placed it in his underwear drawer, and a note, and ran back out the way I came. When I walked back into my room, Link was sitting on the couch, staring at the television. It was turned off.

"Oh! Hey, babe!" he called, smiling.

"Hey…" I said, staring at him confusedly.

"I've been watching the…'Teee Veee,'" he said slowly, enunciating each letter. "But it's pretty boring. All it is is a black box," he said, shrugging. I cracked up, and fell onto my bed. "What?!" he asked, dumbfounded. I laughed harder.

"Link, you have to turn the thing on!" I cried, in hysterics.

"Huh?" he asked, staring at the T.V. I got up and turned it on, and handed him the clicker.

"There you go! See? The television," I said, sitting down next to him. He got this glazed look over his eyes, and was completely mesmerized.

"Holy shit…it's like…a live person but…" His mouth was open so wide that an 18-wheeler could have driven through it.

"Yes, Link, magic television," I said sarcastically. I showed him the up and down channel changer buttons. His eyes lit up as the channels flipped before him. "Here you go bud, go nuts," I said, laughing. He took it, and pressed the two buttons fiercely. "And when you're done with that, get changed, cause we're going out," I said, chucking my cousin's clothes at him. They just hit him, and fell to the floor. Pretty sad. I left him sitting there, watching television, and walked out the door again. I walked downstairs and down another hall, which led to my massive kitchen. I headed to the fridge and grabbed some sodas, and over to the cabinets for chips. When I entered my room again, he was still sitting there. I walked over to the television and turned it off.

"Hey!" he exclaimed. "Put it back on! Come on! That was the greatest thing I've ever seen!" I smiled. Yeah, it will be, until he sees my car.

"I know, Linky baby," I teased, "but you need to get changed. I want to show you my world. You got to show me yours, so it's my turn now." He smiled.

"Okay." He stood and picked the clothes up off the floor. "I have to wear these?" he asked in disgust. I laughed.

"Yes, now, change!"

"With you standing there?" he asked sheepishly. I groaned.

"Link…we've…"

"I know, I know…"

"So what's the problem?!"

"I'm shy…" He blushed. I groaned again, and turned around.

"You happy now?" I barked.

"Yes," he mumbled. I stood there for about five minutes, and finally he said I could turn around. He looked sloppy. "Jeez, Link," I scolded, walking up to him, "you look shabby!" He smiled like an idiot. I straightened out his shirt and pants, and helped him lace up his boots. Then I removed that weird-ass hat of his and put my cousin's grey hat on him, covering his ears. Little curls peeked out from under the sides of the hat. He was so cute. I kissed him on the forehead.

"Okay?" he asked.

"Much better," I said. "Now come on, let's go!" I exclaimed, yanking him out the door.

Wokay, folks, next chapter will be up whenever. And I actually had this one done on time, I swear! Not my fault I couldn't upload it cause ff.net was down...
