Author's Note: My friend Megan is planning on killing me at school if I
don't continue, so here you go Megan! Thank you for your review! Nitashi
belongs to me!
" Are you sure, I mean it's kind of dangerous," Link warned the guard.
" Dangerous? You're talkin' to a Gerudo Theif, where have you been?"
" Wait, we don't even know your name!" Mido quickly changed the subject.
" Nitashi, happy now?"
" Alright, you can come," Link finally said.
************************
" Well, my preference would be to kill you right now, you are the Sage of Water. A public execution will suit us better. We'll wait for the others!" laughed the Sage of Wind.
" Others?" Ruto questioned.
" You'll see," and with that, she disappeared.
" RUTO!" Darunia screamed, " Look!"
Saria had regained consciousness while Ruto was talking. She was using her magic to create a crystal ball that would display what Link was up to.
" Saria?" Ruto asked with a little concern.
" I'm sure it'll work!" she boasted.
Sure enough, Saria's magic worked like a charm. They all sat in a circle, well the best circle you can make with three people, and watched the Hero of Time make his journey through the desert.
************************
" Nitashi, do you know a short cut?" Link asked.
" Sure do! See, told ya I was good for sometin'!" Nitashi turned her horse to the right and headed in that direction, the others close behind.
" How long has Nabooru been gone?" Link spoke.
" Weeks, who knows?"
" Well, um, if she's not there, we're in a lot of trouble."
" Why, you on a date?"
" WHAT?!"
" Ya heard me!"
" ME, on a date with HER?!"
" Okay, sorry! Sheesh, you men are such babies!"
A shadow loomed overhead and Nitashi's smile grew much larger as she pointed to what was before them.
" We're here."
************************
" The Desert Colossus," Saria announced. " Why would they be after Nabooru?"
" Well, all of the Sages are linked and it is said that each Sage knows what is wrong with the others." Darunia explained.
" He doesn't need to look for her, I can tell him where we are!"
" Saria, he needs to find Impa as well."
" How do you know all of this?"
" The link! Close your eyes and empty your mind and concentrate on a Sages life force, any Sage. Think of the name and picture the temple in your mind. Do this with each Sage and open your eyes."
Saria sat there in full concentration for about 20 minuets. When she was finished her mind was exploding with new data.
" What have you learned?" Ruto asked.
" Impa is trying to breach the barrier that blocks this realm. She has sealed the demons in her temple and is trying her best to save us. Nabooru isn't at her temple, she's with Impa." Saria stopped at let a gasp escape her lips.
" What is it?" Ruto asked in a concerned tone.
" Link...Link's in danger!"
" What?!" Darunia shouted.
" There's a death trap waiting for him at the temple. The Sages we met have put it there; they know where he is and what he's doing! Oh, I have to get Link to play my song!" she paused to think. " I know!"
Saria moved her hands to the crystal ball and said a few words in old Kokirish.
" Thy holy spirit of thy forest realm send thyself to thy boy who wanders. Warn him of thy dangers that shall kill him. Make him play thy " Song of Friendship."
The ball began to glow and in the picture displayed Saria could see that her plan was working.
************************
A gust of wind caused a line of leaves to blow in front of Link. They swirled around him and one thing popped into his mind...Saria. He remembered all the times she would jump up from behind him and hug him tightly, just like the leaves. He had to talk to her.
" Let's rest here, our horses need rest," Link said.
" Um...were already here!" Mido responded.
Of coarse, Link didn't pay any attention to him. He pulled out his Ocarina and was soon playing the sweet melody his dear friend, and only love, had created. Mido smiled, he loved the song Saria had composed. It reminded him of her and all of her talents. Link wasn't playing this song for pleasure; he had to talk to Saria, just one last time.
************************
Saria soon heard her melody begin to ring. She pulled out her Ocarina and played with the soft tune.
" Link, this is Saria...Can you hear me?
" Saria! Oh, are you alright?"
" I'm fine, Darunia and Ruto are here to help me!"
" What? Darunia and Ruto are there?"
" Yeah, and I have to warn you, don't go in that temple!"
" Why not?"
" The other Sages that captured us have set a death trap in there!"
" What about Nabooru?"
" She's helping Impa break the barrier on the entrance to this realm."
" Is Impa alright?"
" Yes, she's fine, just don't go in that temple! Teleport to the Shadow Temple."
" Thank you Saria, I love you!"
" I love you too Link."
************************
The melody stopped and Link found himself alone. Mido and Nitashi were nowhere to be found! A sudden scream sent Link racing into the Spirit Temple.
" Are you sure, I mean it's kind of dangerous," Link warned the guard.
" Dangerous? You're talkin' to a Gerudo Theif, where have you been?"
" Wait, we don't even know your name!" Mido quickly changed the subject.
