Link and Princess Zelda rode through the forest that led to the passage to Termina. Navi slept in Link's pouch. It was a long trip there and she got very tired when it came to long trips.
"How much longer?" Zelda asked.
"A couple hours." Link answered.
He looked over at her. She looked so beautiful riding her white horse. The way her hair swayed in the air. He remembered when he defeated Ganondorf how they sat in the clouds and talked. They didn't talk long for she had to send him back in the past so that they could relive their lives as they were supposed to.
"Link!" Zelda exclaimed when he was suddenly thrown of his horse.
"What startled her?" he asked.
Navi flew from his pouch. "A Wolfos!" Navi answered.
Link then quickly pulled his new Hylian sword from its sheathe.
"Where?" he asked.
"Behind you!" she answered.
He quickly turned around to see the Wolfos running towards him. "Zelda, stay on your horse." he said as he began swinging his sword at the wolf. Zelda knew that she couldn't just sit there and watch. She looked at Epona and saw a bow sticking out of a pocket in the saddle. She jumped down from her horse and grabbed Link's bow.
"Where's the arrows," she thought. She ran to the other side of Epona and found the arrows. "There they are!" she said to herself. She grabbed an arrow and aimed it at the Wolfos.
"Princess, watch out!" Navi yelled.
Zelda turned around and was knocked down by a Wolfos.
"Link!" Navi yelled.
He looked over his shoulder to see Zelda being attacked. He then quickly killed the wolf he was fighting and ran to Zelda. He kicked the wolf off Zelda and killed it.
"I'm sorry, Link," she said.
"Don't worry about it," she replied and the helped her up. "I'm used to it."
She grinned and handed his bow to him. "Thank you," she said.
"You're welcome," he replied, looking at her.
"Awe how sweet." Navi teased.
Zelda laughed and walked back to her horse. "We should get going," she suggested.
Link helped her back on her horse and then got back on his. "I think you like her." Navi whispered.
"Oh be quiet," Link replied.
After a couple more hours of traveling, they finally approached the tunnel that led into Termina.
"I wish we could bring our horses in there," Link said. "The only reason Epona got in there was because Skull Kid had powers."
"Get off your horse," Zelda said.
He did as she said. "Watch and learn," she said with a smile. She put her hands in the air. His mouth dropped when he saw their horses begin to glow a bright yellow light.
"Where'd they go!" he asked when he saw the horses disappear.
"They're in Termina field now," she answered.
"How did you do that?" he asked.
"Triforce," she explained. "You have powers too Link. You just don't know how to use it yet."
"Can you teach me?" he asked.
"Of course," she answered.
"Follow me," he said, holding out his hand. She put her hand into his and together they walked into the tunnel.
"Link, there's nothing here," she said.
"I know," he answered. "We have to jump."
"Jump!" she asked in shock. He nodded. "Okay," she said.
"On the count of three. One.two.three!"
And with that, they jumped. She screamed the entire way down. She did not know why he would say to jump, but she trusted him. She then suddenly found herself landing on a flower.
"Did you do this when you were here?" she asked.
"Yes, you're going to kill me, but I knew of another way down here that didn't involve falling," he said with a grin.
"What!" she shrieked. He then began laughing. "Why you!" she yelled as she started hitting his arm.
"You got to admit, it was fun," he said.
She stopped hitting him and got up. "Fine, I admit, it was fun," she said in a huffy as she brushed the dirt off her dress.
"Okay now we just need to go through that door," he explained.
"It better not involve more falling," she said.
"Don't worry," he said with a laugh. "It's just walking from here on."
The two went through the door and walked down a long hall. Zelda looked at all the green grass on the walls and floor. She could tell she was in an under ground tunnel in the forest. Link opened the door that was at the end of the hall. Zelda's mouth dropped when she saw the room she was in. The room looked as if she was inside a giant clock. She looked to the side and saw green water flowing under a walkway.
"Link, where are we?" she asked.
"Inside Clock Tower," he answered.
"That's why it looks like the inside of a clock," she thought aloud.
"That water looks so gross." Navi said when she flew out of Link's pouch.
"This is where all the dirty water comes," he explained. "It's like a sewer."
Then they approached another door. "Princess Zelda, Navi," he began and opened the door. "Welcome to Clock Town."
Zelda's eyes widened when she saw this new place.
"Do you like it?" he asked.
"Like it? I love it!" she said with fascination.
It was just like Link remembered. People walking around doing business. The guards blocking the way outside for children or at least children with out swords could not go outside unless he or she had an adult with them.
"Come on. I want you to meet my friends Anju and Kafei," Link said.
"Okay," Zelda replied.
Link took Zelda by the hand and walked to the east side of Clock Town. "I wonder if she still works there," he thought.
"Link!" Exclaimed a voice.
Link turned around to see a little boy about thirteen years old. "Jim? Wow! You've gotten so big since the last time I saw you!" Link said when he saw the leader of the Bomber kids.
"Who is he?" Zelda asked.
"This is Jim," Link explained. "He's the leader and the Bomber kids. They go around and help people in need."
"It's a pleasure to meet you," Zelda said.
"You too, Miss..."
"Princess Zelda." Link finished.
"A Princess! Wow!" Jim exclaimed.
"She's the Princess of Hyrule," Link said.
"The place you told us about?" Jim asked.
"Yes," Link answered.
"I haven't seen you in five years. It's great to see you again, but I have to go. I promised to meet someone," Jim said.
"Well I have to ask you something," Link said. "Does Anju still work at Stock Pot Inn?"
"Yes," Jim answered.
"Okay, thanks. See you later," Link said.

"Here it is," Link said when they approached Stock Pot Inn. The place Anju worked. Link then opened the door and walked up to the counter. Behind the counter, they saw a girl about four years old with long purple hair and blue eyes.
"Mommy, someone is here," The little girl said.
Then a woman walked into the room. She had long red hair and blue eyes. She wore a long blue skirt and a purple shirt. "Welcome to Stock Pot Inn," she said.
"Hello, Anju," Link said with a smile.
"Link, is that you?" she asked. "The last time I saw you, you were just a little boy. How have you been?"
"I've been doing great," he said. "I'm so sorry I couldn't make it to your wedding."
"That's alright," she replied.
"Mommy, is that the man who saved you and Daddy?" The little girl asked.
"Yes, Anjie," Anju answered.
"Is that your daughter?" Link asked.
"Yes. She looks a lot like her father," she said.
"I'm glad things has been going great for you two, I mean, three," he said. "Oh, I'd like to introduce you to my friends. This is Princess Zelda and Navi."
"It's a pleasure to finally get to meet you two," Anju said. "Link has told me so much about the two of you."
"I'm glad to meet you too," Zelda replied. "You have a beautiful daughter."
"Thank you," Anju said with a smile.
"So do you have any rooms?" Link asked.
"We have one, two bedded room," she said.
"Okay, we'll take it," he said.
"Okay. Here are your keys," she said, handing Link the keys.
"Thank you," he said.
Link and Zelda walked up some stairs and into a hall. "Sorry that there was only one room," he said.
"It's alright," she replied.
He opened the door to the room and walked in. "We could get a curtain and put it in the middle of the room," she suggested.
"Yeah so that way we could both stay here and still have some privacy," he replied.
"And
you don't want to people get the wrong idea about us right?" she
said.
"We are just friends after all."
"Yeah we are," he said with a small sigh.
"Link, what's wrong?" she asked.
"I just need some rest," he lied. "You know, after all that traveling."
"Oh okay," she said not fully convinced. "Well I'm going to look around and talk to some people." She began walking out the door.
"Zelda," he said stopping her.
"Yes?" she asked.
"Just don't leave this inn please," he said. "There's a man that runs around and steals things from people. If he saw someone like you…..."
"Don't worry," she said. "I'll stay here."
"Thank you," he said relieved.
She grinned and walked out the door. "He's still the Link I remember." She thought.

Zelda walked down stairs and into the kitchen. There she found Anju.
"Oh hello, Princess," Anju said.
"Hi. Am I interrupting?" Zelda asked.
"No not at all," Anju answered. "What's wrong?" She asked when she noticed an odd look on Zelda's face.
"You look so familiar," Zelda said.
"I do?" Anju asked.
"Uh-huh. You look like someone I've seen before. I don't know. Maybe I'm just losing my mind," Zelda said with a laugh.
"Anju, where are you?" A voice called out.
"I'm in the kitchen." Anju replied.
A man walked into the room. He had shoulder length purple hair and red eyes. A lot like the Sheikah eyes.
"Are you a Sheikah?" Zelda asked the man.
"No," he answered. "Who are you?"
"Princess Zelda, I'd like you to meet my husband, Kafei." Anju said.
"Princess Zelda?" he said. "Link has told me so much about you."
"He told me about you, too," she replied.
"Where's Link?" he asked.
"He's resting," she answered.
"Did he ever find his fairy friend?" he asked.
"Yes. Just about a week ago," she answered.
"Good," he replied.

Meanwhile, Navi flew out of the hotel room and found Zelda, Anju and Kafei chatting. She was very bored and figured she'd take a look around the town. "Princess, I'm going to take a look around town," she said.
"Be careful," Zelda said.
"Okay," Navi replied.
Then Navi flew outside. She looked beside her and saw a sign that said "East Clock Town." She looked at another sign that said "Honey and Darling's Game Gallery."
"I guess I'll check it out," she said to herself. She went inside and saw a man and woman kissing.
"Excuse me," Navi said.
"It looks like we have a visitor, Honey," The man said.
"It doesn't look like she can carry bombs, Darling." The woman said.
"Um, okay," Navi said and flew back outside. "That was weird." She thought.
Navi flew around some more. She didn't think it was as good as Hyrule, but she was pretty impressed. After thirty minutes of looking around, she decided to go back to the inn. She flew around a corner and was suddenly knocked down by something.
"Hey watch it!" A high pitched female's voice yelled.
"Well excuse me!" Navi shot back.
She turned around and saw another fairy in front of her. She looked just like Navi, but she was white instead of blue.
"Haven't seen you around before," The white fairy said.
"I'm not from around here," Navi replied.
"Where are you from?" The fairy asked.
"Hyrule," Navi answered.
"Hyrule!" The fairy exclaimed.
"Yeah so?" Navi asked.
"Y-you're Link's fairy! Navi!" The fairy gasped.
"You know Link?" Navi asked.
"Yes, my name is Tatl," the fairy said. "Link helped a friend of mine and he saved this entire country!"
"So you're Tatl," Navi said. "Link told me about you."
"I wish I knew how to find him," Tatl said. "He's been looking for you…….."
"Link is at Stock Pot Inn," Navi cut in.
"He is!" Tatl gasped.
"Yes." Navi answered.
Without hesitation, Tatl quickly flew away. "Wow, she's anxious to see him." Navi thought.
