Disclaimer: What part of 'I only own Lace and the plotline' CAN'T YOU FIGURE OUT?!?!?!?!?!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
It was a day later. While under the cover of darkness, three figures slipped into the moat outside town.

"Did we have to go this way?" Navi whined from her hiding place.

"Shh!"

They let themselves float downstream a ways before climbing onto the bank.

"I told you it would work," Link whispered.

He pulled out his Ocarina and played a tune none of them had ever heard before. They all disappeared in a burst of feathers as a horde of monsters converged on the place. They materialized in front of the Temple of Time.

"What was that?" Zelda asked as she wrung out her hair.

"Song of Soaring. Picked it up in Terminia," Link said offhandedly.

While they had escaped, Link had explained what he had found. Zelda had been intrigued by his tales of Holodrum and Labrynna, while Lace kept wanting to try his rings.

"What now? Ganondorf still has the Stone. Don't you think he'll find his way here?"

"Nope. The same type of magic that makes up the Lost Woods protects this place."

They decided to take a much needed break, and sat around in front of the Temple doorway.
A few hours later, Lace sat up to find everyone else asleep. Even Navi was asleep.

Lace stood up and looked around. Something had woken her, and it was coming from the Temple.

Stepping over her brother, who was writhing and crying in his own dreams, Lace made her way into the Temple.

She stood before the Spiritual Stones and watched them as they spun. The song they sang seemed to captivate her senses.

Lace thought she could almost hear words in the song. Without noticing it, she pulled out her flute (a gift from a Skull kid she'd met) and played along. When the impromptu concert ended, Lace was startled to see the stones float up and start spinning around her head.

The nameless song they sang changed, and Lace played it dutifully. She had just committed it to memory when a blinding light hit her.

She found herself opening her eyes. She was outside the Temple! It had been _another_ dream. Lace rubbed her eyes, irritated.

She had never breathed a word to anyone about these. Unlike Link, she didn't get nightmares - just visions. Usually they were happy visions, about people being in love and living everyday lives.

But every one in a while, they'd be just plain weird. Like, when she had first met Link, she'd had visions for a year, seeing everything he'd done first hand.

'Oh well, that's fate.'

Lace sighed, then picked up the still sleeping Navi gently. Reaching over, Lace gently shook Navi's fairy dust over her brother's face.

"…Ah…ah…AH…AHCHOO!"

Link sneezed all over Navi, waking both of them up and starting a terrific fight. Lace laughed her head off while Zelda woke up.

"…Lace, what are they doing?" Zelda asked uncertainly.

"Being the backside of my favorite prank!" Lace giggled.

"Yeah, and didn't Saria tell you to stop doing that?" Navi buzzed angrily.

"Maybe. But it was just too easy!"

Lace was laughing again, until Link emptied a bottle of water on her head.

"Fresh Spring Water. Complements of the Swamp Spider House," Link giggled while Lace started yelling insults at him in Gerudo.

"She's been hanging out with Menandorf for _too_ long," Navi whispered to Zelda.
