Author Chronicles: Return to Hyrule - a fanfic by charity236
Disclaimer: I didn't create Zelda. So there.
I'm baaaaaaack! I know it was a longer-than-usual wait, but under the current circumstances... erhem. Anyway, since I've been so lazy these past few weeks (at least I think it was weeks), I decided to post TWO more chapters! How about that, folks? Anyway, enjoy this (hehehe) next round of Return to Hyrule!
Chapter 4: Wings Of A... Hylian?! or That's A Familiar Name
As Link got up from his bed, nobody noticed the fairy wings protruding from his back. They were just like how they were when Link was fairy-size, only now the wings were bigger, to suit his full-size body.
Link looked in a full-size mirror to check that he was alright.
'Link, stop pretending to be in a fashion show already!' Navi, Tatl and Tael giggled.
'What? I'm checking to see if all of me is here.'
Silly Link, almost everyone except Link thought. Only Zelda seemed to have no problem with Link's actions.
'Er... heehaahoo... er, hoot... Link (wheeze), have you noticed the -' Kaepora began. Then he burst out in laughter with everyone else except Link, who obviously didn't see what was so funny about - him?
Why are you all laughing at me? And Kaepora, I thought you'd have more sense, Link thought to himself.
'SSSSHHHHHHHH! You'll alert the Kokiris!' Link yelled, and the room fell silent. 'Okay, what's so funny about me? Is something wrong or is it just you guys? Am I in a dream? Or wha-'
Link touched his back, very carefully. He felt the silky, fragile wings that were sticking out from his tunic.
He almost screamed in horror when he saw them - they were so fine he needed to use the Lens of Truth, unlike Kaepora the owl, whose eyesight was extremely sharp for an old owl. He must have told everyone else about them.
'WHY IN ALL SUBROSIA DO I STILL HAVE FAIRY WINGS ON ME?!?!' Link shouted to Saria, Zelda and Skull Kid, since they were the ones who had woken him up.
'SSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!' everyone said.
'And what's Subrosia?' Skull Kid asked, as everyone but Link and Zelda had puzzled looks on their faces.
'It's me you should be yelling at, not Saria or Skull Kid,' Tatl revealed slowly.
'Tatl, don't say it...' Tael whispered.
'Tael, I have to own up. I didn't know what the gold dust would do. I never should have trusted those witches... even though they gave Link a bottle and let him go on the Swamp Boat Cruise...'
'Link, I have to reveal my secret.'
After you left for Holodrum, I went to see if the Magic Hags had finished the Mushroom Potion for me.
"Tatl, I have the mushroom potion ready for you. Oh, but where's the boy, Link? Surely you wouldn't be able to carry this potion without a bottle," Koume had said as soon as I had entered the shop.
Link cut off Tatl at this point, saying, 'Koume! That's a familiar name... if only I knew who she was again...' The side-effects of the evil of the castles in Holodrum and Labrynna included a slight memory loss (unknown to Link), but Link's case was stronger than normal.
'Link, let me get back to my tale!' Tatl was getting annoyed.
I was going to send the potion to you, but as well as the potion, Koume had discovered that the spores on the mushrooms had an extremely magical property that could turn people into things at the user's wish. The spores were mixed up with some Blue Potion, and it made a fine powder. But Koume didn't want to try it on her dear sister Kotake, and no-one she met accepted the offer to test it.
"It's alright, I've got his bottles, Link didn't think he'd need them on his journey. Fill them all up with the Mushroom Potion, except one."
That one was the bottle that Koume filled with the special dust.
After I grabbed the bottles, Koume said, "I might have put something extra in one of them, dear... heeheeheeheehee... goodbye. I might see you in Hyru-"
That was all she managed before her sister Kotake intervened. She had shot some ice from her wand, and frozen Koume's hair.
"Kotake, that hairstyle cost 500 Rupees! Where can I get that much money again? WHERE?"
"I don't want anyone to find out where we come from, Koume!"
I left them to fight, as usual. On the way to Clock Town, I checked my bottles and saw the dust. I tried it on a butterfly, and it turned into a Skulltula (one was trying to hit me at the time).
"Oops, I don't want a mutated butterfly roaming the field," I thought to myself.
I whistled the Song of Healing, and the butterfly reformed, though now it had eight legs instead of six, and it could spin webs.
'I never sent the potions to you, Link, but I give them to you now. And...' (she hesitated) 'Here's the dust. It could be useful in many ways.'
'Tatl, there's something you're not telling me, is there?' Link wondered slyly.
'Well -'
'Link, Koume and Kotake, they aren't just witches. They're -' Navi began.
'Twinrova! I should have remembered that, but Ganondorf's evil rays made me forget about them.' Link said. He slumped back down on the bed, careful not to crumple his new wings. 'I'm so forgetful... ever since I fought Onox, it's been even harder to remember...'
'Link, I may have a way to help you remember.' Zelda spoke suddenly.
'Y-you do?' Link stammered.
'Sure.'
Zelda played her special lullaby - backwards.
'That's the Song of Rememberance. Play it whenever you can't remember something, and all sorts of memories will come back. So if you play it a lot, your memory will be restored. Oh, and here's the Ocarina of Time. You'll definitely need it now.'
Link gave Zelda the Fairy Ocarina. 'Even though this was Saria's, you take it. It's only fair.'
'Let's all work together to save Hyrule - again,' Zelda announced.
Everyone agreed.
'Don't forget the other Sages too,' Saria piped in.
'I know. Okay, NOW let's all work together to save Hyrule again,' Zelda said again.
'And to help me get rid of these damn wings,' Link grumbled. Everyone laughed.
'Link, they might be useful, you know... Let you fly.' Tatl said.
'Well, you might be right, Tatl,' Link agreed.

Things are getting interesting... and Link has only just started his journey for the Spirit Sprites!!
Next Chapter: More Dust Troubles
If you want a lot of laughs, why don't you checko out my new fanfic, One Really Weird Dream (also by me)?
And another thing - if you'd like me to post my Zelda/Harry Potter fanfic in celebration for Order of the Phoenix coming out, tell me. I know that Return to Hyrule is far from finished, but I like to post new stuff before old stuff is finished. It's just the way I am :D
