Hello there it's me again! How is everyone? Okay I'll try to update this as
much as I can. I promise! So here goes: Navi was turned into a human named
Fuiri. Link has no idea what has happened to his fairy friend, but takes
the beautiful Fuiri with him.

"Are you okay back there?"
"Of course." I smiled a little. He acted like I had never ridden a horse before. Well okay… I haven't. Never before had I been on a spirited creature like Epona before always having wings that got me from one place to another. It was only a miracle that I hadn't fallen by now as we raced back to the castle.
Concern clouded his eyes. Those eyes that I know Princess Zelda had more than once gotten lost in those eyes of his. Now they showed feeling for me… well the old me… Navi. For some reason that bothered me. He had never shown that type of compassion for me at any time, and now that he thought I was gone, he worried.
The air whipped back my long lavender hair in a pale purple flow behind me. The roan horse galloped away from the forest with Link and me on her back. I could feel the heat radiating from his body as the late morning sun shown down on us.
Over the wooden drawbridge into the market. The usual group of people stood there chatting away about the day's gossip and waved as we rode past.
"Good morning, Master Link," the guards said as the gate opened to allow us to pass. "Who is this young lady?"
"She is a friend. Princess Zelda is in. Correct?"
I think both the guards' and my mouths were hanging open. Never before had we heard Link talk in such a serious manner. I couldn't help but allow a chuckle. The blonde Hyrulian averted his head to look at me.
"Fuiri?"
I waved a hand at him signaling it was nothing. I'm sorry I just couldn't take it anymore. It WAS extremely funny.
The guards caught on and started laughing as well.
Link sat there with a confused expression covering his face.
I was the first to recover. "Weren't we going to see the Princess?" I questioned.
The guards followed suit and nodded showing their training. "Yes, Ma'am. Master Link, you know the way."

"Why, Link… I was wondering where you were."
The Princess entered the room gallantly like any one of royal blood is expected to show. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of me and came to a stop. "Pardon me. I didn't know you had brought someone with you."
Link nodded his head. "This is Fuiri. I found her in the forest."
"What were you doing in the forest?" she questioned outright in her haste forgetting I was there.
"I was looking for Navi…"
"Your fairy?"
While they talked, I stood back and looked around the room. It was the hall where I had been so many times before but now seeing it for the first time through human eyes. Everything looked so new and exquisite. It was breathtaking, and I took it all in while the conversation flowed around me.
"She was missing last night, and I went back to Kokiri Forest to talk with the Great Deku Tree. I thought perhaps he had seen something or knew what was going on."
"And?"
"He said she was on a new quest…"
"A fairy is like a friend who stays with you for life. Isn't that right?"
Link nodded concern clouded his eyes again.
"Excuse me?" I interrupted their conversation.
Princess Zelda shot me a look that almost immediately softened. "Yes, Fuiri?"
"Would you mind if I take a walk? It would probably be best if you two had some time alone to talk?" I didn't like that look she just gave me or the others given since I got here. Somehow I didn't think that was royal hospitality. Chills ran through my body
Link shot me a smile to be strong and a look to say his apologies. Those eyes… the ones that you could just drown in… A warm feeling filled my body driving away the chill.
"Of course… Go right ahead," she said with a false warmth to her voice.
I dropped into a curtsey and departed the room knowingly heading to the garden.

The fragrant sweet aroma of flowers greeted me as I entered. I sat down amidst them on the white marble bench. The warm rays of the sun felt comforting against my fair skin. Everything seemed so much different being in a human body.
Reaching down I picked a rose, white as the clouds floating overhead in the clear blue sky.
I let out a yelp of pain dropping the flower onto the skirt of my dress. Droplets of crimson red rose to the surface of the skin.
"Be careful." A white handkerchief appeared and was wrapped around my injury.
I looked up to the smiling face of Link.
"Thank you," I said smiling back. "You're done talking with the Princess?"
He nodded sitting down next to me. "I want to apologize about the way Zelda was acting. She's been stressed lately about how things are. People are at a time of unrest and it's not settling very well with her."
I agreed silently looking into his eyes. Those eyes… This time I was drowning in them.
"Fuiri…"
"Link?"
He leaned forward. Then… my stomach grumbled. I hadn't eaten all day… or ever for that matter… ((Do fairies eat? I don't know… correct me if I'm wrong…))
We both turned away laughing nervously. The awkwardness had settled in.
"Why don't we go to the kitchen and get something to eat?"
I nodded enthusiastically.
He stood up offering me his hand.
Graciously I took it getting up as we strolled back inside.

Unknown to me at the time, someone had been watching us from the window. Jealousy clouded all sane thoughts. War was going to break out, and hell would be let loose.
