Chapter 5
Gradually, Link felt his senses return to him. He felt his body become aware of itself, felt the soft grass he was lying on. He had a vague recollection of a horrible nightmare… he had fought a terrible battle with Ganon… he had failed Maple. He failed! Now she would be lost forever!
"Hey, wake up, you stupid ass!" said a very familiar voice. Link raised his head to see Maple standing in front of him. "There you go!" She said. "Get up, silly."
Link rose to see a vast entourage of people surrounding him. Din and Nayru, the two Maku Trees, the Owl, and the Wind Fish.
"What's going on?" Link asked apprehensively.
"Remember that book you were reading?" Maple said, "The one that said a Hylian warrior cannot marry without passing a test of courage?"
"Yeah. So?"
"Well I felt I needed to… speed things up a little."
Link was thunderstruck. "You mean, that was all…"
"That was my proposal, Link!" she said, pulling him close, "Say you'll marry me!"
After the wave of what just happened subsided, he turned to her and said, "Of course I'll marry you! You thought I wouldn't?" Everbody oohed as they kissed for over 5 minutes straight.
The next day was very joyous as they celebrated the marriage of Link and Maple before the great Maku Trees. Everyone attended, even Onox, Veran, and Twinrova, whom it turned out meant no harm. They just wanted to bring Ganon back because he owed them all money. At the end of the ceremony, Link led Maple back to Bippin and Blossom's house and "turned off the light."
EPILOGUE
"Well it sure was nice getting to see our son again." Said Blossom as the couple entered Horon Village.
"Yepper." Agreed Bippin. "But it's always nice to get back home." They entered their dark house, took their coats off and put the light on. You could have heard Blossom scream from a mile away.
THE END!
