Time can change a man. But can a man change time?
"What happened?" Link asked, his face matching the worried tone in Commerford's voice. "Malon's missing!" Zelda sighed unsympathetically. "Oh jeez, she's been with us for what? Half an hour tops, and she's already gotten herself lost." Link didn't have time to defend his friend. "Where did you last see her?" Commerford put a finger to his chin trying to pin point when. "Where you found me yesterday." He said finally. "Oh great, there's a party in my courtyard and I'm not invited." Link ignored the unusually edgy Zelda and continued with Commerford. "Did you see anything unusual?" Commerford nodded. "She walked right through a wall, sir." Link squeezed his index finger under his green hat and scratched his blonde hair. "Well that's odd. Did the dirt path still seem distorted?" Again Commerford nodded. Link swore under his breath. Zelda just looked as confused as before. "Am I missing something? Or have you two taken to many trips to Link's private garden.
"We have no time to lose!" Link yelled as he ran down the stone path. "What's the big deal? She's probably hiding away in my courtyard ready to surprise us. You know how much of a prankster she is." Said Zelda calmly, having no trouble to keep up with Link in her Sheik form. "You have no idea what has happened do you?" Zelda just clicked her tongue. Link stopped suddenly. He was at the marketplace, and not much has changed.
"Oh, man." Link said, in a loss for words. "My people." Zelda said, quickly changing from her sarcastic mood. The people were still in their original position, faces as pale as ever. Their expressions seemed painful, despite them being caught of guard. Commerford finally caught up behind Zelda and sheik. "I wonder how she gathered them all here." Link wiped his eyes. "What do you mean?" Commerford pointed to a middle aged man. "Well from one, that guy has bed hair that should never be displayed in public ever. Even my mop top is sorted just a little in the morning." Link snorted, only to be cut off by a firm backhand by Zelda to his chest. "In all seriousness" Commerford continued. "That women is holding a fry pan and that boy is asleep. So whoever did all this, probably the Navi witch that we saw earlier, did this over most of Hyrule and gathered them all here."
Link smiled, something made it through that thick head of Commerford's and made it to his brain. He puffed his chest to try and show importance. "Well checking the numbers here I would certainly believe that." Zelda jumped back into her normal sarcastic self she slowly grew up to be. "Are you two boys finished yet or are going to wait another 15 minutes figuring out the obvious?" They both turned towards her. "And that would be?" Link asked, inviting an answer. " Well it wasn't Navi. And who ever is doing this a very heavy magic wielder, having the power to do all this is the work of extreme magic. Oh and why have the vanished? Well isn't it obvious?" Judging from the faces of the two males, it wasn't. "She is in another dimension!" The boys looked at each other with signs of acknowledgement. "Ahhhh." The boys said at the same time, looking enthusiastic. Zelda rolled her eyes waiting for their next predictable line. "Huh?"
Zelda paced back and forth. "Well if you two are both sane at the moment, then wherever Commerford was patrolling." "Is a link to another time!" Link finished. Commerford nodded his head, pretending to grasp the situation. "Do we know where it goes to?" He said, at least pretending to know what is going on. Zelda ran down the pavestones, her Sheik costume fully intact, towards Commerford's patrol area. Link gave a glance to Commerford and they too ran down the pave stones.
When they got to the townspeople, Link shut his eyes. He didn't want to see them again it was too horrifying. He held on the back of Commerford's shirt for guidance. Occasionally, he felt a body rustle up against him; their touch was cold and impure. One body he hit so hard, it fell to the cobblestones. "Commerford? Tell me I didn't break him." "Her, and no she is fine, horizontal, but fine." Link; being the womaniser he is, sighed over the fact that he nearly killed a woman. A frozen one, but a woman nether the less.
When they eventually entered the courtyard, Link opened his eyes to see Zelda already darting around furiously, trying to remember Commerford's look out spot. Her Sheik costume was skin-tight and remained motionless in the slight breeze. "You don't remember?" Commerford said, looking slightly offended. "I do, it's just. I need to clear the area first." It was Link's turn to raise an eyebrow, but Commerford seemed to buy it. After minutes of pathetic 'checking' Link chuckled to himself. "Its over there. Jeez you have no respect for your guards do you?" Zelda crossed her arms. "That isn't true. Its just, you know, there is so many of theme." Commerford didn't look hurt at all. "All part of our job lady Zelda." Link smiled, so the boy finally figured something out on his own.
Link and Commerford walked towards the patrol route. The brown footsteps of Commerford's iron boots were still intact. Zelda caught up with them. "Master Link, will you go first?" Link looked around. "Sword?" "Check!" "Shield?" "Check!" "Hookshot?" "Eggs?" Commerford checked the backpack. "Check and cracked!" Link got back into his normal position, ready to travel. "With the exception of yolks sliming up everything in my backpack, we are ready to go!"
Link took a step forward, and a bright light engulfed him.
