Kaguya: Yes! You've read my story! I know it's bad and stuff, but I'm
working on it! See ya in chapter 3.! ^_~
Gunoung7 : Thanks! I tried to fix the (many) mistakes on the first chapter. Anyway, I tried to make this one as long as possible. At least it isn't as short as the first one, I can tell you that. ^_^
Maelgwyn: I know. . . I've got major mistakes. And I mean BIG TIME! I tried to fix them. I just hope that this chappy is mistake-free. . . Anyhow, thanks for reviewing. =^_^=
Disclaimer: Like I said, I do NOT own Zelda, Link and everyone else (so don't kill me) . . . I tried to get this up as soon as possible. And as promised, it IS longer than Chapter 1! Hope you'll like it. ~_^
And now, let's get this show on the road!
The Legend of Zelda:
Fate VS Destiny
Chapter 2: Brainwash
"Link! LINK! C'mon, WAKE UP!"
Saria, Link's childhood friend, was madly shaking him until his head began to wobble back and forth. He mumbled.
"For Hyrule's sake, Link! Won't you get up?!"
He finally answered: ". . . no. . . too sleepy. . ."
She was shocked.
"How can you be sleepy?! It's past 10 o'clock! Besides, Navi is very anxious to see you."
This finally shook him up.
"Navi's here?" He asked while rubbing his eyes.
"Yeah. She's waiting for you outside. She said she wanted to show you something. . ."
Link slowly got up and searched around for his boots. The sunlight shone brightly through his blond hair, creating a halo around his head, and bangs would always fall into his liquid blue eyes every time he bent down. Saria stared.
His muscles were highly developed and very well defined, and he looked really cute without a shirt on (still wearing pants, you perverts!). She knew, because she would often watch him train in the middle of the night, and the way the moonlight reflected his face made it irresistible to watch. Although the Kokiri sword grew smaller for him, he still practiced with sticks and branches, and she would never missed the opportunity to watch.
Link and Saria had been friends ever since he could remember. She would always help him through others' mistreatment counting the fact that he was "different". She could some times make him laugh and she would cry with him in the hardest of times. Needless to say, she really liked him.
Saria quickly shook that thought. Things would never work out between them. She was a Kokiri and he was a Hylian; Link was growing up and she would still be a child wether she liked it or not. His mother died bringing him to the Great Deku Tree when he was just a baby. Since then, he had been raised in the Kokiri Forest. Unfortunately, he had been the Chosen One, and Destiny chose him and the princess, Zelda, to pierce the evil in Hyrule. Together, they defeated Ganondorf and Zelda had sent him back.
But to spare them the horrible memories, Fate decided to brainwash them. And now, only the legendary six Sages remember, and Saria was one of them.
Oh Rauru, she thought, I want to tell him so badly. But the laws forbid us. . . Link is growing up and might leave us someday. . . What should I do?
Link's voice shot her back to reality.
" Huh? Wha- Sorry, I wasn't listening. . . "
Link stared. "I said: You're standing on my hat."
Saria swallowed and looked down. So she was. She blushed and quickly stepped out of the way. "Sorry. . . 'bout that. . ." She mumbled. "Do you always have to keep that thing lying around all the time?"
Link just grinned and picked it up.
" I guess I better get going," she said, " If you need me, I'll be in the Forest Meadow."
He smiled. "Alright. See ya later!"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Oh! Link! You're finally here! You don't know how glad I am to see you! I missed you sooooo much!"
Navi had been zooming around madly since Link jumped down his Tree House. He was soon greeted by a kiss on the cheek and a teeny weenie hug from his old friend.
"It's good to see you too, Navi." He laughed.
"C'mon, Link! There's something I need to show you! Hurry up before it's too late!" The little fairy squeaked while pulling his sleeve.
Link chuckled and broke into a run with Navi taking the lead.
"What exactly are you showing me?" Link asked.
"Can't tell you! It's a surprise!" She said. "Now, keep running or else we won't make it in time!"
Link sighed. They soon ran past the Kokiri Shop and reached a clearing. They both stopped to take their breaths.
"This way, Link," she urged. They walked through the thick passage and arrived at the Great Deku Tree's resting place. The guardian had been killed by a curse cast by Din-knows-what, and Link couldn't seem to remember how it all ended. From what he heard, a certain someone lifted the curse before the Tree died. . .
"Oh, good! We're right on time!" Navi clapped her hands in delight. He stared. The Tree was still the same: motionless, black and dead. Then something caught his eyes. It was a tiny plant growing by the Great Deku Tree's roots. He turned to Navi.
"What is that?"
But the fairy just smiled. "You'll see!"
Link bent down and watched.
Nothing.
Until. . . SHOOMP!!!!!
They both jumped. What used to be the leafless plant somehow turned into a wide and fat shrub* the size of a medium boulder. It had two tiny black dots for eyes and would have had and ear-to-ear smile if he had any ears to reach. Two branches popped out of its sides and leaves emerged from his round head. Whatever it was, it sure looked happy.
"Hi there! Very pleased to meet you, I'm sure. I'm the Great Deku Sprout. And who might you be?"
That's when Navi came in: "Hello! Very nice to meet you too! I'm Navi and this is my friend, Link. We've been waiting for you!"
The little "tree" blushed. "Gosh! Thanks!" He looked up at Link. "Are you a real life Kokiri? This is the first time I ever see one! They must be really tall for kids their age!"
The young man was lost in thought. What the Deku Sprout said was true. . . He was abnormally tall for a Kokiri. . . Saria was already a head shorter than him, barely reaching his neck. And unlike all Kokiries, Link didn't have a fairy. Navi was only a friend that came to visit from time to time. Other than that, she would watch over the Deku Tree's mysteriously dead "body" until a new guardian would be found.
The Kokiries, especially the Great Mido, their so-called leader, always considered Link "different". Only Navi and Saria had rushed up to his defense, rather quickly in Link's opinion. They would always find ways to set aside his weirdness among the crowds and make him look normal. But what if he wasn't? What if. . .
Navi's reply sent him back to reality. "Yes, Link's a Kokiri. . . "
He noticed hesitation in her voice, though.
"But he's not that tall. He's just. . . special, that's all!"
Okay. That was way far off. But he guessed he couldn't really blame her. He really was changing. . .
"Oh, really?" was the Deku Sprout's reply. He obviously wasn't convinced. "Then I suppose you're his guardian fairy, right?"
Navi looked down, admitting defeat. "No. . . just a friend. . . "
The little shrub looked surprised.
"Huh? But all Kokiries have fairies. Why don't you? You are a Kokiri, aren't you?"
But he soon regretted asking, seeing the sad look on the boy's face. He quickly added: "I'm sorry, Link! I didn't mean to hurt your feelings! Please don't be mad!"
"It's okay. . ." He mumbled.
The fairy flew up. "Well, it was really nice to meet you, but we have to go! We'll come visit later, okay? Bye!"
She said it very fast and the next thing he knew, Link was being pushed out of the place by a very panicked Navi.
"Well, that was fun! Those Deku Sprouts. . . Don't worry about them. They'll be a lot wiser when they grow into Deku Trees."
There was a slight pause.
"I know. . ." Link murmured.
They began to walk up to his hut. Suddenly, he stopped.
"Navi. . . Am I a true Kokiri? I want you to be honest," he added as she opened her mouth.
She closed it shut and thought for a while. For some reason, Navi still remembered. She remembered their trip to the alternate future, their adventures, and the six sages. She remembered Sheik, survivor of the Sheikah, who had helped them get to the sacred Temples throughout Hyrule. She remembered their meeting with Princess Zelda at the Temple of Time, how the evil king Ganondorf had kidnapped her, and their rescue. She also remembered Ganon's defeat and the world's sudden memory loss. Should she really tell him? Was it necessary? After all, he had a right to know. But then. . . Maybe she didn't have to. Maybe-
"Link," she began, "I'm afraid I cannot answer your question. . . I'm sorry. . ."
Link nodded and looked down. Navi swallowed.
"But. . . If you really want to know. . . I can help you find out for yourself. And this time, I'll stay with you."
He looked up and gave her a faint smile.
"Thanks Navi."

Author's Notes: A-Hah! I told you that this would be a larger chapter! 4 ΒΌ pages!!! A self-record! I know it isn't much yet, but his adventure starts at about Chapter 4. . . I'm not sure yet, though. You'll just have to find out! ^_^ And plz review!

Oh, and before I forget: I know that it's the summer, and I know that most of you guys don't have school. . . but I still do. And to make things worse, I get my final exams next week! How fun is that! Anyway, it'll probably take a while for my chapters to update, since I have to study and all. Just take that as an early warning.
