A boy sat on a fence. He looked around at the fields around him, sighing to himself. He looked up at the sky watching the suns ray's peek out of the dark, purple sky. His blue eyes sparkled as the sun shone its red light on the last clouds, floating lightly over the mountain in the distance. He smiled as the sun's warmth reached him. His attention towards the sun and it's warmth stopped as he heard a faint scream in the distance.
'Huh?'
The boy leapt off the fence, looking frantically for the voice's owner.
"Hello? Who's there?"
In the distance, just where his house in Kakariko village was, a fire billowed high. His eyes widened, and he rushed home.
"Mom! Where are you?!"
He entered the village, where the fire consumed the houses in it. A tall figure on a horse galloped past him, knocking him to the floor. He landed hard on his back, the wind knocked from him. The boy staggered up, just seeing the long edge of a sword hanging from the riders' cloak. He turned his attention to his flaming house, and kicked the door down. The heat of the fire instantly reached his face, and his hands rose to block the flames.
"Mom! Where are you?!" He repeated. He felt his head spinning as the smoke rose. Finally, he gave in, and passed out on the wooden floor.

A tall blonde man, wearing a green tunic kneeled over the boy. As the boy eased up, coughing, the man let out a sigh of relief.
"He's ok."
A tall red haired girl in a long dress sighed, putting a hand to her beating heart.
"Thank you Link, that's the second time you've rescued this town!" She said.
The man, Link, rose up, dusting himself off.
"A lot of people died today Malon. I don't call that a rescue."
The woman nodded gravely. As the boy struggled to his feet, Link moved to block the view of his house.
"What's your name kid?"
"Tom."
"Listen Tom, this may be hard-"
"Where's my mommy?"
"Um."
The young boy, with tears in his eyes, pushed past Link. A choked cry escaped when he saw his totaled home.
"MOMMY!"
He started to try and dig through the rubble, but stopped and broke down into tears when he felt Link's hand on his shoulder.
