A/N: Sorry its been so long guys. I had school and wasn't really
home over the summer. But now everything's under control, or the best it
will ever be. So in between band sectionals and math homework I will
entertain the minds of my ff.net peeps.

It was Manksoph's big day; she was becoming the new Kokiri. Everything seemed to be right, Link and Saria were back together, well almost, and a new Kokiri was joining them. The Deku tree was pigging out on some Lime Jell-O, while everyone put on their green tuxes and was at the banquet to watch her get her fairy. All the fairies come and circle around her and the one that chooses her stays while the rest leave. It was a sight everyone wanted to see, and was the beginning of her new life. Everyone gathered around the center of the village early in the morning. There was a reception type celebration where everyone could congratulate Manksoph and eat as much as they wanted. Link of course was getting used to the new and "improved" Saria. "Oh my god, Link" Saria exclaimed, "Do you have any idea what your wearing? It's so .just blah. And tights? That is so Robin Hood. I mean I know you're a hero and everything, but.." Link leaned over to Mido and whispered, "Ahh, the sweet sound of a teenager. Just watch out for the killer mood swings and raging hormones." Mido giggled. "Hey I heard that," Saria playfully punched him in the arm. The locals chattered and gossiped some more until it was time to be seated. Saria and Link sat in the front, her head on his shoulder and their hands intertwined. Manksoph sat in the special chair up by the elders and other important figures. She looked happy, but not very excited. Her smile was more of a grimace. She scanned the crowd for Link, but couldn't find him. Her eyes drooped, but her face kept on smiling like a cobra before it strikes its prey. Link and Saria were off in their own little world. They went behind a house to talk. Saria was happy to see Link back to his own self again, but she was questioning his choice of friends. "Saria, calm down, okay. Manksoph is just a little girl, what harm could she do?" "I know, but there's just something about her. I just don't know what." "You're just over reacting, okay. And if anything happens I'm here-" "Oh great. Link saves the day once again. Link the Hero of Time." "That's right. I'll always be there for you. Whenever you need me just give a shout, I'll stop everything to be with you. Saria, I love you." He leaned in to kiss her. Suddenly, they heard a shout and could hear something going wrong at the ritual. Manksoph had gotten up onto the platform. Everyone watched as a rainbow of colors surrounded her. The whizzed around in what most say was the most beautiful thing they'd ever seen. Slowly fairies started to drift away from the rainbow. They were one's who hadn't chosen her. It was a sight to the eyes and a mystery to the mind. No one knew how the fairies chose, not even the Deku Tree. Only a few were left, after what had seemed like forever to Manksoph. She took a deep sigh and knew that it was almost over. All the spinning had made her nauseous. Everyone sat in awe and watched the performance of colors. A faint cry was heard through the air. It sounded like an animal in pain. A stranger ran through the row between the audience, screaming as if he had seen a ghost. He stopped in the middle and paused a second. "The Dark one has returned," he struggled to get it out "the hero must rise once again to fight one.of.his own." The traveler dropped to his knees, "All will be lost." His eyes rolled back inside his head as he fell to the floor. Everyone sat silent in confusion and fear. Link knew he must go. He squeezed Saria one last time before standing up. "Ok everyone please go back to your homes, and Mido get a group together to guard the entrances to the Forest. He pulled the Master Sword from his sheath, and looked at it as if remembering his past journey and questioning this choice. He hesitated and motioned to put it back, but then he saw Saria's eyes. She was relying on him. He rose his sword into his air and applause of a deafening volume rang in his ears. He knew this is what he must do. Link ran off into Hyrule. The Hero was back once again, but he had a different fight this time. He was fighting not only the dark lord, but also himself.
