Hey you! Have you washed your socks lately? If you didn't, you have stinky feet! Anyway, last time, Link and Navi and Nicole and Hayarpi and Brian and Gilbert and Ines were in the Temple of Time!! (time...time...time...time...) HEY! SFX GUY!! (SFX Guy: What?) CAN YOU PLEEEEEZ TURN OF THE ECHO?! (SFX Guy: Why?) IF YOU DON'T, I'LL FEED YOU TO MR. SHARP TEETH!! (pulls out a BIG dog with foam coming out of it's mouth) (SFX Guy: Alright, ok, you win.) YAAAAAAY!! Anyway, they were in the Temple of Time. Link pulled the Master Sword and everyone was flung 7 years into the future. Ines, Hayarpi, Brian and Gilbert outgrown their clothes and Nicole and Link cracked up. Ok, here we go!!

Chapter 6: HEY!! WE ALL LOOK LIKE TEENAGERS!!! (original title)/HEY! THEY'RE ALL TEENAGERS! Awesome man!
The insane laughter continued. "BWAHAHAHAHAH!"
"OK, SHUT UP!" Everybody yelled at Nicole and Link.
They whimpered. "Eep!"
"So, what happened, FAT MAN!" Hayarpi screamed at Rauru.
The Light Sage frowned. "How dare you make fun of the Sage of Light!"
Gilbert raised an eyebrow. "Sage? What's a Sage?"
"And what are we doing in this blue light place thingy that makes it look like water is on the wall?" Brian spat, getting impatient.
Nicole nodded. "Yeah, dude! And why do we look like teenagers?"
Rauru cleared his throat, preparing for a long tale. "Well, it all started when you pulled the Master Sword out of it's pedestal..." He proceeded to tell them about how seven years had passed. Ganondorf had taken over and almost everyone was robbed of their freedom.
At the end of the story, everyone nodded, taking a moment to absorb everything in. Link put a finger to his chin, thinking. "Seven years, huh... sooo, that means that we have to save Hyrule?"
"Yes."
"One more thing," Gilbert said. "How about our clothes?"
Nicole squealed, absolutely pleased with her dark outfit. "OH YEAH! I LOOK SO FREAKISHLY COOL!" She had on long, flared black jeans; actually, her whole emsemble was black. A black turtleneck with no sleeves covered her chest, a semi-thick trenchcoat that went down all the way to her shins right over it, and jet black boots on her feet. Nicole's sword hung by her belt on the side of her right waist, shield on her back of course. "I LOOK LIKE A GOTHIC PERSON OR THINGY, BUT ANYWAY, I LOOK SO MEGA MICROWAVE COOLY OOLY STUFF!"
"Did anyone understand what she said?" Navi murmured.
Everyone shook their heads. "Nope, not at all."
Link raised his hand, volounteering. "I can translate it!"
Everyone waited. "... Well?" Brian asked, after Link hadn't said anything for a while.
The Hylian jumped. "Oh! I was supposed to start?" Everyone fell over. Nicole sat on her black altar, swinging her feet childishly, amused by the others. "She said, 'I look so cool! My outfit makes it look like I'm gothic, but I'm not!'" Link explained.
Everyone except Nicole blinked. "Ohh..."
Nicole threw her arms up, waving like a moron again. "At least STINKY CHEESE MAN understands me!"
Link sighed, fingering the material on his arms and legs. "But you're wearing something TOTALLY different from when you were a kid. LOOK AT ME!" He waved his arms. "I'M WEARING THE SAME FREAKIN' THING EXCEPT IT'S A BIGGER SIZE, I'M WEARING TIGHTS AND I HAVE AN EARRING ON DAMN IT!"
"BUT LOOK AT US!" Brian countered. "WE'RE STILL IN THE SAME CLOTHES!"
Hayarpi, Ines, and Gilbert nodded. "YEAH!"
Rauru put a finger to his chin. "That's incredibly strange... Nicole and Link aren't supposed to be wearing these clothes yet. I set them aside for when you wake up." He looked up from his thoughts, then spotted their clothes on their respective altars. "See? Your adult clothes are right behind you!"
"Oopsie! Excuse us!" Ines said, grinning.
The four of them went in separate rooms and changed their clothes, leaving Rauru, Link, and Nicole waiting.
"While we're here, please tell me how you were able to change clothes." Rauru asked Nicole and Link.
The blond froze, having no idea. "Uhhh..."
"Well," Nicole started, jumping off the altar. "I kind of woke up and felt like I'm out growing my clothes! I was like, thinking, 'what the hell', and nobody was there and I was like, 'hey look clothes', and then I changed into them and then I was like, 'cool, these freakishly smelly clothes fit better than me in a microwave', and then I saw Link, and he was like, across me and then, I was like, 'hey, he, like, kind of grew out of his clothes', and I like, saw the clothes next to him..."
Eyes widening, Link slapped a hand to his forehead. "Aw, no..."
"Anywaaay, before LINKEH-BOI decided to interupt me," she threw a strange look to the Hylian, but he didn't notice as he was shaking his head and muttering curses, "I decided, like, to change his clothes, since he didn't look comfortable, and... umm..." She paused. Then she looked at Link, grinning. "Link, it's a good thing that you have stretchable underwear!"
Rauru burst out laughing. "BWAHAHAHA!"
Link threw his Master Sword at him. "SHUT YER TRAP, GRANDPA!"
The sage 'eek'-ed and ducked, the sword clanging against the wall. "Shutting it..."
Nicole continued. "Sooo, I changed Link's clothes and it was hard to put on the tights--"
"WAH, GODDESSES!" Link cried, burying his face into the palms of his hands.
Nicole swatted at him. "SHADDAP STINKY CHEESE MAN! (ahem) Okay, eventually, I got it and he looked more comfortable! It was like, so hard that I collapsed on the ground near where Link was sleeping! It's weird that you didn't wake up, paperclip boy!"
"BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Link, Nicole, and Rauru whipped around to see the source of the voice: Ines, Hayarpi, Gilbert, and Brian were standing there, laughing their heads off.
"Oh no, they heard you..." The Hylian groaned.
Ines had a hand pressed to her stomach. "OH MY GOD! BWAHAHA!"
Brian was doubled over. "NICOLE! BWAHAHAHAHA!"
"I CAN'T BELIEVE--" Hayarpi continued, but she couldn't help it as her laughs continued. "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"THAT YOU ACTUALLY DID THAT!" finished Gilbert, but then continued his own laughing. "BWAHAHAHA!"
Ines suddenly stopped. "Well, she is actually crazy enough to undress a boy and dress him up again!"
Link's eye twitched. "HEY!" He paused. "Hey, you guys look better!"
"Thanks!" Ines, Gilbert, Brian and Hayarpi chanted in unison.
Ines grinned as she looked at her duds. "I like these clothes," She was wearing flared blue jeans, a silver sparkly shirt, brown boots and a blue suede jacket with her hair up in with a blue sparkly scrunchie. Her sword hung on her belt near the right of her waist. "I look good in blue. Nicole, you look good in black," she continued, dusting off invisible dust from her jacket.
Nicole beamed at her. "Thanks, Ms. I-eat-anvils!"
Ines stared. "Uhh... yeah, and Link, Link... YOU'RE GREEN, like a bush!" There was an awkward pause as everyone's looked at Ines. "... That didn't sound right, did it."
Link rolled his eyes. "Whatever."
Brian waved his arms. "HEY! Look at me!" Brian was wearing a dude version of Ines's outfit, except his hair spiked up, and his jeans and jacket were brown. "I like my outfit."
"So do I!" Gilbert added. He was wearing an altered version of Brian's outfit, with the sleeves up to his elbows and shorts, and his hair was spiked and smoothed. His jeans and jacket were gold, also.
Hayarpi sighed, taking a quick glance down at her clothes. "Duh, of course you like it, we're wearing the same thing!" Her outfit was an altered version of Ines's outfit, a skirt to her knees instead of pants and her jacket's sleeves stopped in the middle of her upper arm, and the basic color was red and she wore a red headband.
Link eyed everyone. "Hey, how come Ines, Brian, Gilbert and Hayarpi are wearing altered versions of the same thing, except for the colors, and Nicole has something different, AND I'M GREEN?!"
Rauru blinked. "You're... supposed to be green. I purposely put you all in different colors."
"But I wanted red!"
Hayarpi pointed at him. "HAHA!" she laughed, her laugh sounding exactly like Nelson from The Simpsons. As soon she she realized this, she gasped and slapped a hand to her mouth.
Everybody stared at her, horrified.
Navi broke the silence. "HEY! LOOK! LISTEN! THIS IS IMPORTANT!"
"WHAT IS IT?!" Everyone yelled at her.
"I DIDN'T CHANGE!"
Everyone fell over.
"Oww!" Nicole grumbled as she recovered from her fall, getting up. "... I'm gonna do it again!" She suddenly flung herself back once more, creating a loud THUD sound. "Oww..."
Everyone stared. "O.o;;"
"Well, SHE didn't change..." Link said, then sighed a large sigh of relief. "THANK GOD!" He then crushed Nicole into a hug.
Nicole hugged back. "Aww, thank you, paperclip!" She paused. "GET OFFA ME! I CAN'T BREATHE... AGAIN!"
Link sweatdropped. "Oops, sorry," he apologized, letting her go.
Nicole and Link both paused, and then turned to each other, saying at the same time: "Hey, were you wearing perfume/cologne?"
Nicole lifted her arm and took a whiff. "It seems, I was!"
Link did the same. "Yeah, so was I..."
Everyone looked at Rauru. He stared back. "What? Yes, so I also sprayed you all with different colognes and perfumes. Seven years and no bathing!"
"HEY!" Everybody whacked him on the head.
"Ouch..." Rauru began to grumble, and the same time rubbing his bald head.
Ines looked at everyone's clothes. "Why do Hayarpi, Brian, Gilbert and I look alike except for the colors and Nicole looks different?"
Nicole began to laugh. "MWAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"Because she's taller and they didn't have her size," Rauru explained casually.
Nicole suddenly stopped laughing. "I HAVE to be tall, don't I?"
Rauru ignored her. "So, does that explain why all of you are adults?"
Navi nodded. "Yes!"
"And you understand your quest?"
Everyone nodded. "YES!"
Rauru smiled at them. "Ok, here is the Light Medallion. It has my power in it. Catch," he said as he threw a yellow medallion at them. Link caught it.
"THANK YE!"
"Great. To get out of here, just jump three times."
Everyone nodded. "OK!" With that, they all jumped three times. Suddenly everyone began to fall. "... AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" They keep falling until finally they land on the ground on their butts.
Link landed. "Ouch! Oh goddesses, that hurt..."
Nicole landed. "Hey! Holy cheez-its..."
Ines landed. "Ah! Oh, my butt..."
Brian landed. "Whoa! I need help..."
Hayarpi landed. "Eeeep! The floor is too hard..."
Gilbert was the last to land. "AHHHHH! IT BURNS!"
Everyone began to laugh out of nowhere. And why they all said different things as they fell, I have no idea. O.o
Gilbert ignored the narrator's statement and looked at everyone laughing. "What? It does..."
Then everyone began to get up. Well, they tried to, at least. Nicole however, being... Nicole, sprinted up in a moment.
Link sat on the ground, staring up at her. "How did you do that?"
"I was able to kind of land on my feet!" She pointed at him, a laughing grin on her features. "I GOT UP AND YOU DIDN'T! MWAHAHAHA!"
Everyone except Nicole and Navi groaned.
Nicole rolled her eyes. "C'MON YOU FAT TUB OF LARDS! GET UP!" She smiled at them. "I'm kidding. But, seriously, GET UP FISH PEOPLE!"
After more encouraging from Nicole, they all managed to get up, rubbing their sore bottoms.
Navi sighed. "FINALLY! You are all too slow..."
Everyone stared at her. "Well, you can fly." They all said at the same time. Then they turned to each other and gave each other weird looks.
Navi ignored them. "Oh, hehe!"
They were all about to walk out when they heard footsteps behind them. Nicole stopped walking. "Wait, you guys, I hear something..." Everyone else stopped walking also.
Link turned around and unsheathed his sword. "Who are you and what do you want?" he yelled. Everyone turned around and did the same, scanning the area.
"I have been waiting for you, Hero of Time." A voice called out.
"Who are you?"
"I am Sheik, a sheikah."
Navi sweatdropped. "Wow, it's so not obvious."
A young man wearing a skintight blue and white bodysuit stepped out of the shadows. In the middle of his chest was a large, red eye. Half of his hair was covered with blond hair, and the part of his face that wasn't covered revealed crimson eyes. "I see that you have been doing good with the five destined ones."
Link stared at him. "Yeah, so?"
"And that also you have grown a huge interest on the insane one."
Nicole began waving her arms. "I'm insane, is that me?! HUH? HUH? HUH?!"
Navi looked around. "Mmmmaybe... maybe not."
Brian rolled his eyes. "Yes Nicole, you are."
Everyone except Nicole and Link looked at one another, grinned, and then went, "Wooooooooooo!"
Link frowned. "Hey, Nicole's like a sister, THAT'S IT!"
Nicole nodded. "YEAH! And Link is like a brother that is wearing spandex under his dress!"
Everyone, except Link including Sheik, burst out laughing. "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Link frowned even more. "IT'S A FRIGGIN' TUNIC!"
Gilbert grinned at them. "Ok, NOW we can tell that you guys act like siblings!"
"THANK YE!" Nicole said, patting Gilbert's head. "You're a peanut."
"O.o? Huh?"
"FORGET IT!"
Sheik continued. "Anyway, you have heard about the sages, right?"
Ines rolled her eyes at him. "Ya think?"
Sheik eyed her, then continued. "You must go to six temples, one in a--"
Brian shook his head. "Don't worry, we know what to do! One is in the forest, in the volcano, underwater, in the dead place thingy," he paused to shudder a bit, "and in the desert."
"How do you know?"
He was about to reply but Nicole butted in for him. "I TOLD YOU, we all have powers, MYSTICAL powers, mwahahahaha!"
Sheik looked at her. "You never told me anything."
She stopped laughing. "I didn't?"
"No."
"... Oh."
"... Yes well, you can't enter the first temple yet. You need--"
Hayarpi cut him off. "Yeah, yeah, we need to go to Kakariko Village then to the graveyard and get the hookshot. We know!"
"Ok, what she said. Go to the Sacred Forest Meadow after you get it, ok? I'll be here waiting."
Link nodded, and then looked at everybody else. "Ok, let's move out!"
Gilbert stared at him. "You sound like a military general."
Link stared back. "What's that?"
"The leader of an army." Ines answered.
"Oh."
They all exited the Temple of Time and went into the market. Nicole stared, wide-eyed. "FLYING OCTOPUSES PLAYING TETRIS ON THE COMPUTER! What happened to the market?!"
The market was thrashed and burned and it had no more color. The only inhabitants were Redeads in every corner.
Hayarpi began to shriek as she saw a skull near her feet. "Eeeeeeeep!" she screamed, jumping into Brian's arms.
Ines also began to yell when she saw another skull near //her// feet. "Aaaaaaaahhhhh!" she yelled, jumping into Gilbert's arms.
Nicole began yelling. "OH MY GOSH!"
Link closed his eyes and got his arms ready.
"Link!" Grinning, Nicole picked up the skull near Ines and threw it in Link's arms.
Link paused, feeling around it. "Wow, Nicole, you're really light..." He opened his eyes and looked down. "AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" Link fidgeted with the skull before throwing it back at the girl.
Everybody laughed at him. "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Nicole laughed haughtily. "MWAHAHAHAHA! I knew you were getting ready to catch me, so I threw you a skull! Wasn't that funny?"
Link's eyes twitched. "NO!"
Everybody else argued with him. "YES! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Link rolled his eyes. "Ok, enough of this! Let's get out of here!"
Nicole, who had wandered off, began to approach a Redead. "Wait Link, what is th—" her sentence was cut off and replaced with a frightened shriek. The Redead saw her and flung itself upon her body, throwing them on the floor, sucking the life out of her system.
Link's head snapped in the direction of the scream, then unsheathed his sword at the sight. "Nicole! No, not again!"
Everyone ran her direction, and hauled the Redead off her body. She lay there, barely breathing. Gilbert and Brian finished the Redead off in the corner. "I didn't..." Nicole began, voice weak. "know... it would... do... that..." with that she fell unconscious.
Link's eyes widened and he grabbed her shoulders. "Agh! This is the second time!"
Ines sighed in aggravation. "Why is Nicole always the one who almost dies!?"
Gilbert leaned down beside them and took her wrist, putting two fingers on it. Everyone stared at him, watching carefully. His eyes narrowed. "I can barely feel her pulse..."
"Oh no," Hayarpi muttered. "That means that she's almost dead..."
Getting up, Link carefully picked her up and slung her body over his shoulder. "C'mon, let's get her a red potion!" Brian said. Everyone nodded, and began heading their way out of the market. They made it to Kakariko Village and into the potion shop.
Navi flew up to the shopkeeper's face. "Quick, please give us a red potion!"
The shopkeeper saw Nicole hung over Link's back, and then nodded, placing a red potion on the table. "Here, this one's on me."
Link shook his head, then gestured at Ines to his wallet. "No, here you go." Ines reached into his bag and put thirty rupees on the counter, then taking the potion. "Thanks so much!"
Everyone exited the shop and Link put Nicole on the ground, laying her head in his lap. Ines leaned over, tilting the other girl's mouth open and pouring every single drop of the red potion in. When it was all gone, Brian put the bottle on the ground and everyone watched, anticipating, for any movement.
She made none.
Brian held his breath in before whispering, "No..."
Ines shook her head, arms lunging forward and onto Nicole's shoulders. "Wake up! Nicole... no, this can't be happening!" Her hands fell from Nicole's shoulders and she sat there, head to the floor.
Gilbert reached over and took her wrist again, gently putting two fingers on her wrist. His face fell. "I don't feel anything..."
"No!" Link shook her body, and then began to whisper, "Goddesses, please spare her... this can't be true, she can't be dead, we haven't even //started// our journey yet... please, Goddesses..." His voice began to break, a trail of tears making their way down his and everyone else's faces.
"Why isn't it working?" Hayarpi cried through her tears. "But we gave her the potion! She should be alive!" She stared at Nicole's pale face. "She should be..."
Navi began to shake her head, keeping silent. The entire group bowed their heads in prayer, tears falling silently. A crowd had formed around them, watching quietly.
... However...
Ever so slowly, did a certain person's eyes begin to open. In a voice to compete with silence, she whispered, "I..."
An observant villager noticed and leaned over to their neighbor, whispering, "I think I heard something from the young lady." The other person nodded in response.
In a louder voice, she began to voice her thoughts. "Ouch, my body..." She opened her eyes all the way, then looked up at the face of Link, who had the stain of tears on his cheeks. She screamed. "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!"
Link's eyes shot open, and then caught sight of Nicole screaming, mouth wide open. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!"
Navi began to scream also. "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!"
And so did Ines. "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Gilbert did the same. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!"
Also Hayarpi. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!"
And finally, Brian. "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Nicole stopped suddenly, staring at all of them. They stared back at her in pure shock. "'AAAAHHHHH!' yourself!" Nicole muttered. She blinked, eyeing their tear-stained faces. "Huh? Why are you all crying?! Huh?! WHAT HAPPENED?! PLEASE TELL MEEE!"
Navi was the first to escape from the shock, and her first action was to smack Link across the face. He shook his head. "Nicole!" he yelled, rubbing his cheek. "You're alive!" his tears came again and he hugged her in happiness.
Nicole hugged back, but looked confused. "Huh? What? Was I dead?! AAAAAAHHHH! AM I DEAD?! WHERE AM I!? WHY--"
Link withdrew and put a hand to her mouth. "No, don't talk, you're alive!" he hugged even tighter.
Everyone nodded and also hugged Nicole. The townspeople, noticing that everything was all right now, smiled at the group and then left.
Nicole hugged everyone back, and then began to explain as they let go. "All I remember was that I was approaching this ugly brown thingy, it sticked to me, and then I fainted! Then I woke up and saw Link and you guys crying. Then I said 'AHHHHHHHHH!' Then you all said 'Ahhhhh!'"
Hayarpi laughed a bit, wiping her eyes. "We're glad you're back!"
Brian nodded. "Yeah, this is the second time you almost died."
"The monster you saw almost sucked the life out of you," Navi explained. "We pulled it off and killed it. And then Link carried you here and we bought you a red potion to cure you. When you didn't say anything, we thought you were dead, so..."
Nicole paused and sat up correctly. "Actually... I really thought I was dead," she muttered. "I saw these angels and they were about to grab me when these three ladies appeared behind them. I overheard them say that I shouldn't leave the living world yet and that they had gotten a request from the chosen one. I don't remember anything else."
Everyone exchanged glances after Nicole had explained.
"Do you think those were the three goddesses?" Link asked everyone else.
"Din, Nayru, and Farore?" Ines asked.
Brian shrugged. "Possibly. It seems like it, though."
Nicole sighed, and then stood up. Everyone else did the same. "I'm glad to know that you guys love me so much that you cried," she said with a grin. Everyone else grinned at her back and sweatdropped. "But hey, I'm not dead, and you guys shouldn't mope anymore! This is killin' our time; c'mon you microwave eating people! Let's get what we need here and finish our quest!"
Smiling, and with Nicole's upbeat attitude boosting everybody's mood, and they all nodded. Wiping their tears, they all headed into the graveyard to retrieve their weapons.
Navi looked around the small cemetery. "Man, this place gives me the creeps!"
"Yeah," Hayarpi muttered, eyeing a tombstone as she passed by it. "I got a feeling that anything will pop out and get us..."
Link looked around. "Hey, has anyone seen Nicole?"
Nicole, who had hid the moment everyone entered the graveyard, popped up behind them and flicked them all on their ears. They all screamed and latched onto each other, falling to the floor. Nicole laughed haughtily. "BOO YAH! MWAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Everyone except for Nicole didn't realize yet that she was there, so they kept screaming.
Nicole was dying of laughter. "MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Link was the first to snap out of his fright. His eye twitched. "HEY! You almost died, causing us to cry, (A/N: Hey that rhymed! and so did that!) and now YOU'RE SCARING US?!" he screamed.
Nicole nodded, smiling. "YES!" She paused, eyeing everyone's expressions. "Ehehe, sorry, but I couldn't pass up the chance to scare you lizards! MWAHAHA!"
Everyone twitched, but sighed.
Eh, Nicole. Never gonna change.
