Link's vision was a swirl of translucent colors.
He could make out a deep purple, followed by red, green, and black. The
blackest of black.
In the mists of his mind, he experienced flashbacks. From his tormented childhood, which over the years had forced himself to all but forget, to his horrific battles with Agahnim, and later on, Gannondorf. He remembered Gannon's tortured face, as he killed him.
His inner eye brought him back to the strange woman. She seemed too familiar for him to not know who she was.
It was that name. Din... The name of the goddess of power.
The girl must of been of some importance to have been allowed to be named that.
Link's world slowly but surely came back into focus.
But who was that man? And how did he know Link?
Link's thought process was cut short as cold water splashed his face.
"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHH"
"LINK! LINK are you alright! Can you hear me?"
The voice seemed distant at first, but then it came into clear pitch as the worried voice of Malon.
"LINK!"
"Im up, Im up..."
"What happened, did Epona buck you off?"
"Yeah... Sorta....Wait, no, it was... AAH..."
He clutched his bleeding head.
"Yeah... Yeah...It was Epona..."
"Link...Is there something you aren't telling me?"
After she looked up and down Link, she gasped.
"LINK! Your shirt! There's a scorch mark!"
Link took one look down, and was sure what happened wasn't a figment of his imagination.
"Malon, I have to go."
"But wait... Stay."
Link got up and hugged Malon affectionately.
"Whatever you do, I want you to stay with your dad and Mr. Ingo in your house."
Malon went to ask him why, but thought better of it.
He broke his embrace, and ran through Hyrule field.
Malon blushed a deep magenta at being held by Link. She giggled to her self, and trudged off to the stables.
Whatever happened to Link last night, she hoped desperately that it wouldn't lead to Link having to fight.
Link ran faster, and faster, not stopping for anything. He ran through the front gates, and past the guards.
When he reached the front gates, he was escorted straight to the front of the castle.
"There you are, Sir Hero of Time!"
A guard, a few years older than Link, said nervously.
"Uh... Thank you...uh..."
" David! David Thomas! Sir!"
"Uh, David, just call me Link, alright?"
"Yes sir..er... Link!"
He nodded so vigorously that his visor fell forward over his eyes.
The grand doors suddenly opened, and the princess walked out.
"Your highness!"
"It is alright, David, I told you, you can call me Zelda."
David couldn't fathom this notion.
"Zelda! I have something very important to discuss with you, ASAP!
