Chapter 3: The task of Mido:The bully.
He stood in a marble hallway, his surroundings tinted in gray and black, silence running down each corridor.
He blinked as the world around him changed; color came into the tapestries and other ornaments that hung on the walls, sound suddenly came from all around of people laughing and talking, smells of things he never had smelled before invading his senses, and people suddenly were walking outside, a great gate shown blocking the people from where he stood and guards lined the openings and court yard. He looked up, the place he was in wasn't like anything he had ever seen. Great towering walls reached up into the clouds, a mote of sparkling blue water reflected the shining sun and passing birds.
"Do you think he is going to be cute like me?"
Link blinked and swiveled to the right where he had heard the young sweet voice. A girl, no older than four years old, stood their looking transfixed on a man with a smiling face and dark skin, blue eyes glinting happily as he looked down to the much smaller youth.
"Oh yes my son shall be one of the cutest."
The girl smiled,"He better not be cuter than me!"
There was silence between the two and Link was sure the world had frozen in that position before the girl piped," Daddy....even though he doesn't have my mommy as a mommy because she's gone right now....why....why is she....you know..... I over heard that she wasn't.... Hylian... that she wasn't... even.. you know.... mortal."
The king, or at least that was what Link guessed from the golden crown that had a large sparkling red diamond in the middle, frowned and sighed while kneeling down next to the girl, and put a hand on her shoulder, while looking into her bright blue eyes and smoothing back some of her golden hair.
"Zelda, listen to me.. you're right when you say...when you say, that Lin is not Hylian."
The girl gasped and got a excited look about her,"Oh daddy, oh, oh daddy. What is she? Is she really -"
"Hush Zelda. Yes,"he smiled worried, while looking down the hallways,"she is one. Now be quiet about this, and peace shall stay among those in Hyrule that don't value strangers like herself as much as they should.
Link blinked. He hadn't a clue what they were talking about, nor why he was to listen, but he didn't have any time to ponder that as for the world before him started to swirl as the girl said one familiar name. Link. "Link!"
Link kept his eyes closed as he tried to keep hold of what he had been dreaming of. Something about a girl, a king, and Lin? He gave a groan of frustration. The memory was slipping though, like water did his fingers, he had no control over it. "Link!" Link blinked his eyes as they focused on the hovering fayferie that was looking down at him in a worried manner.
"Link are you all right!"
A wave of dizziness overcame him, and he momentarily closed his eyes before opening them.
Daylight shown above him, and there was a light wind about, coming through a nearby window. He sat up slightly blinking the hazy thickness that had invaded his vision, and looked around. He was on a soft white bed in a circular room, smoothed glossy wooden walls shinned at him and he knew immediately it was one of the girls houses-boys didn't like the glossy look.
"Hello Link! By Narus love! What in the name of the forest is wrong with you!"
Link shook his head and looked up to Flora,"Where are we?"
Flora looked surprised for a moment until getting an upset look about her,"Oh nothing! Just that you totally freak me and now you're acting sharper than a stallfos's sword!"
Link shuddered. He had never actually 'met' a stallfos. But he was afraid he had today.
"Were those...things Stallfos?"
Flora looked at him with an annoyed look through half opened eyes.
"No."
Before Link could ask anything else he was cut off by a screech at the door.
Turning his head around, he saw Andrea jumping up, and was overwhelmed in a hug.
"Well,"said a voice, and as he got Andrea off him, he noticed it was Lilly who seemed to be a bit on the pale side," I see you have waken."
Link nodded. Noticing the stairs, he looked around before asking slowly,"Girls...I'm sorry but..what happened."
Andrea blinked, and gaped at him with Lily.
"You mean you don't remember?!"
Link shook his head and shrugged his shoulders as if it would help them notice he hadn't a clue what they where talking about.
"You suddenly appeared! Whoosh!"Andrea made a sweeping gesture with her hand,"out of a hole next to Saria house. Their had been this big explosion before, and then ,well, that happened. You had a sword in your hand and and and then"she gave a dramatic sigh,"you fainted."
"Yeah!"laughed Lily suddenly,"right on top of Mido to! Way to go Link!"
"Well Link come on! I bought you the sword, so you haven't to worry about that!"Andrea carefully handed him a polished shining brown shield made from a strong wood that had a carving in it."I don't know what the carving mean,"she set it in his lap,"but it is pretty cool."
Link didn't pay attention to ether of them. That shield. It had an air of familiarness like....he had seen it before.
Shaking his head Link got up smiling, flexed his mussels, and quickly put on his hat while strapping on his shield and sword giving the Fayferies or girls a second chance to ask him what he was doing. * * * *
Mido was guarding the Deku trees grove like he always did, unless he was bullying somebody, when all of a sudden he spotted something and took a step back while he gave a shocked gasp as the form of Link rushed up to meet him and his fairy proudly, waving to him. It wasn't the fact that Link was coming that shocked him, oh no, it was the sword held tightly in his hand and the shield strapped securely on his back.
"Hi Mido!"said Link sounding oddly smug at the turn of the tables in his order.
But surprise never held itself long in Mido's presents, for his displeasure of Link's success overwhelmed him. His hand tightened into fists as he looked on angrily at the smaller boy who was grinning widely up at him. Tapping his foot he narrowed his eyes while plainly wanting an explanation for the odd and, to him and most likely many other Kokiri, unexpected turn of advents.
How ever no matter what a explanation wasn't needed, it was plain and simple what had happened, but, even though he knew he was stating the obvious, Link had to burst out "Okay,I have a sword,"he waved the shinning metal around teasingly,"and the shield. Now favor me in the task of moving so kindly off your royal grass and let me though."
Mido seemed surprised only momentarly by this rude remark. Link normaly wasn't the type to go shooting threats or harmful remarks to others seeing as he was more kind then some of the Kokiri. Of course Mido, being the only bully, took care of this on his own, only getting in return the Kokiris hate and Links dislike.
While he moved the angry Kokiri grumbled about how unfair it was but no one was their to listen. Link and Flora had already started their way down the dark pathway to the deku tree to meet what ever horrors awaited them. * * * *
