Kirri: A Girl of Clocktown's Diary
3 Days Before the Carnival
A/N: Chapter 7…Sorry it took so long. Computer's been down, stuff's been happening, other fics have been written (well, started), and these chapters might not be as good as the other chapters because the idea isn't quite as fresh in my mind as it was when this fic was new.
....Enjoy anyway, damnit. ~Mirri

Oh boy, how to start off today?...
Well, it's still morning, around 9 am, but quite a bit has been happening. I'll try to describe it as if it's happening now.
I was walking to the laundry pool around 6 am when I strangely decided to look at the Clock Tower's doors. I forget what's down there...I think there's the wheels that turn the clock, but I don't know if anything else is down there. Well...I could have SWORN that a Deku Scrub was going to come out of the doors. It was like an EXTREME case of deja-vu...like...I KNEW a Deku scrub was going to come out. I don't know why...it was so strange... Then the doors creaked open, and me, expecting to see a Deku, was slightly surprised when a boy my age came out. He was wearing a green tunic, had blonde hair and blue eyes, a silver, shining shield, a sword strapped to his back (quite big, I might add, but I don't know if it's colored or anything), and looked like he was extremely tired and sad. He was pretty cute. Hehe, wow, I'm actually starting to notice boys...Strange of me...What surprised me so MUCH was that Tatl was floating by his ear. I decided to go over and talk to this weird boy.
I walked over to them, frowning at them. When he looked at me, he seemed extremely surprised--I didn't know why the HELL he did, but he did. I blinked, taken aback at his surprise, and lost the words I was going to say. So i stood there, staring dumbly at him, until he blurted out, "Who are you?"
"Uh...Kirri...Who are you?" I answered. God, I might add that I sounded kind of enthusiastic and pretty immature...Then I recovered and added, "I've never seen you before..."
He blinked. "Me too." For some reason, this seemed funny to him and he laughed.
"What's so funny?" I asked, frowning, wondering if he was making fun of me.
He stopped laughing--stopped smiling, too. It was scary how serious a kid could look. Almost like a severe adult. "It's just...after being here for so long, it's so...strange...to see a new face..."
I stared at him, eyebrow arched. Was he delusional? Did he realize that he had never been here before? Apparently not.
The boy blinked at her. "Uhm...I mean--...I'm Link." He stuck out his hand.
As I shook it, I realized that maybe I *HAD* seen him before...It was weird--I got another strong feeling of de-ja-vu, that I had seen him running around town before...But if I knew him, how come he didn't know me? I made sure I knew everyone who ever entered the town (not including other races; too many of them). I dismissed the de-ja-vu...ness as a dream I had had once.
Strange dream, it must have been...nah...
Link must have seen my eyes become confused and thinking, because he peered at me. "Are you sure I don't know you?"
Shouldn't he ask that question in his head? "Uhm..." I stopped, the feeling of de-ja-vu stronger than ever.
Then Tatl sqwaked at Link. "Link, this is the final cycle! We don't have anything left to do, except help Kaf--"
Link said, "Quiet, Tatl," though he said it kindly. He inclined his head towards Kirri.
Instead of Tatl getting an apparent message that Kirri did not understand, she blew up.
"YOU'RE that girl I've been looking for ever since we got here on the first day! You evil bitch! I hate you!! You bent my wing!"
"That was yesterday...What do you mean by 'first day'? ..." I looked at both her wings. They were both perfectly fine. "And your wing isn't bent..."
"That's because--" Link reached up and abruptly put Tatl in his hat. He smiled pleasantly at me, and said, "Nice to meet you. I have to...ah...go now..." He scuttled off towards East Clocktown.
I frowned after him. That meeting had been *weird*. Then I went to the Laundry pool to do the chores.
I've been here ever since, sitting by the pool. Today seems different than all the other days...It seems tense...
Why was Link here, anyway? What strange business does he have here? ... Why was he so surprised to see me? I had watched him a bit, and he didn't seem surprised to see anything else. (In fact, he seemed sorta tired of it. What the hell!?)
And the moon...
It's...bigger...
BIGGER. Can you believe that?
Not to mention, why the HELL isn't it burning up in the atmosphere? Is it really going to crash on us?
...
LATER
It's almost two...I was walking to the Mayor's office, to check up on Kafei (don't know why I didn't want to check the Stock Pot Inn) when I felt a strange feeling that Link was probably staying at Stock Pot Inn.
...DAMN I'm stupid. OF COURSE! That's why the name Link was a reserved name!
I walked back and into the Stock Pot Inn. I felt yet ANOTHER sudden wave of de-ja-vu. (What the hell's wrong with me today!?) I saw Anju handing...Was that Link!? He was wearing a mask...Well, she handed him a key, and said something about a meeting...
I blinked and walked up to them both. Link took off his mask, eyed me cautiously, and walked up the stairs. I turned to Anju.
One look at Anju and I was *positive* things had changed around here. Her face seemed...changed. Not really happy, but sort of hopeful...somehow...I glanced back at the stairs Link had gone up.
I frowned at Anju. "What's up?"
Anju sighed. "No, Kafei hasn't turned up...That poor little boy, here all alone...Then again, the kid does look about thirteen, that's an okay age to go running around with weapons and without supervision..." Anju bit her lip in obvious worry, watching the staircase.
I noticed a letter sticking out of her pocket. I was about to ask her what it was when a Goron walked into the room from outside. I decided to leave and run around Clocktown.
So I wandered along outside. I wondered whether to ask Link if he'd go with me on a wagon to roam around the field...naah, why on Earth would I ask him? I don't even know him.
Yet...I feel safe around him, or something...
LATER, Still
Bad me. Baaaad, baaaad me.
Then again, good me!
Bu on the whole, bad me.
A'ight, I'll stop stalling and start at the beginning.
See--OH CRAP! I'll write more later, gotta hide this...
~A/N: I finally wrote a chapter...ALL OF YOU SHOULD BE PROUD! NOW! Hehehehe. I hope you all liked this chapter. Sorry I cut it short and left a cliffhanger, I wanted to get this chapter out the same day I started it ^_^;;
I'll write more soon!
