Link's christmas.
12/22/2002
When Link awoke the next morning, Miau was knocking on his door. Knocking? more like pounding. He opened the door to find Head Elf Miaku standing there.
"Thank Din you're up! Listen: there's an emergency back home. We really need you!"
"riiiight.... " link yawned. "I'm gonna go back to sleep".
"no you're not! This is an EMERGENCY!!!!"
Link sighed. "fine, fine." He went to the stables and went to get Chad. Eponia was next to him. "you rode Eponia?" he asked of Miaku.
"yah. She's a stubborn one, that one. She needs more training to be able to lead the team, or even be of much use."
"nah, she's a good ho... steed. Arn't you, 'ponia?"
"if you say so..." said Miaku. "I'll take Chad, then." They mounted up and Link charged forward on Eponia. He rode smoothly into the air, then turned around to wait for Miaku. "coming?" he shouted down.
"yes!" Miaku was having a bit of tourble with Chad. But they finally got it working and went back to Hyrule. There, they rode all the way back to Kokori Forest. They were met by Saria.
"LINK! We have an emergency!"
"wait... you know my name is Link?"
Saria looked at him oddly. "of course, Link!"
"riiight... so what's the emergency?"
"oh! Come here!" she led him to the home of the know-it-all-brothers, who had a chart spread out on the table.
"Now look. At the currant rate of production, minues the kids that recently transferred, accounting for the dormer effect, and the rate of change in a 2-gallon tank of seaweed, and..."
"Cut to the chase"
"right. Well, at the current rate, we'll be 5 toys short on christmas."
Link looked at them like they were idiots. "So speed up."
"We CAN'T! Not without making inferior toys!"
"So? put some kids on the naughty list!"
"We can't just do taht, they don't deserve it!"
"So give some kids IOUs"
"We can't! They'd be devistated!"
"So work overtime."
"We work 24/7 as is!"
"So hire some more help."
"There's a 1-week training course!"
"What do you want me to do?"
"I don't know!"
"What if.... what if I get 5 kids to be bad?"
"no can do."
"What if.........."

10 minutes later, Link found himself in the newly renovated Sacred Forest Meadow. He and the other elves were singing a little song that went something like this:
"Making christmas making christmas la la laaaa la. it's ours this time and won't the children be surprised! It's ours this time!"
Link was making toy soldiers and nutcrackers. He only had to make 5, so he didn't overwork himself, but took his time to make each one perfect. When he was done, he was surprised to see the sun setting. He felt good, having done a good day's work.
