CHAPTER 7- KAKARIKO WELL PART I

Long ago, Impa sealed and evil spirit in the dungeons beneath her town's well. Years later, the demon, feeding off Gannondorf's ever-growing evil power, broke the seal. As the spirit escaped to the surface, its armies of undead awoke below. Link had to reclaim the Kakariko underground, but only as a child could he enter the well.

"We're gonna need horses soon." Jessica said as they exited Lake Hylia and walked into Hyrule field after Link retrieved the Fire Arrows by shooting into the morning light. It was a sunny day and all of them were glad to see the light after being in Temples for a long time. "There's no way that we can make that jump to Gerudo Valley."

"I know." Sarah agreed. "But right now we have the Shadow Temple to complete."

"Well," Link thought for a moment. Finally, "Let's stop by Lon Lon Ranch. I think I'll be able to talk Malon into letting us borrow some horses. It's on the way."

"Good idea." Jacque said. "All this walking is making me tired."

"Yay!" Shannon squealed. "We get to go to the ranch!"

With that, they all laughed.

*

Trudging their way up the slope to Lon Lon Ranch they finally made it to the horses' pen. There they met Malon, the rancher girl. "Hey, Malon." Link greeted her.

"Oh! Hi Link!" she smiled warmly in welcome. "What brings you here?"

"Well, my friends here will be needing some horses. I was wondering if we could borrow some." Link asked.

"Hmm, I only have five left." Malon looked thoughtful. "I guess you'll have to ride with more than one person per horse."

"That'll be fine. Thanks." With that Link began to saddle the horses with the help of Ingo and Malon. In no time at all the horses were saddled and ready to go.

Separating into pairs was a difficult thing to do though. "I'm not riding with my brother." Zack said stubbornly.

"I don't want to ride with you either." Glen shot back.

"Fine. Glen, you ride with Jason and Zack you ride with me." Jeff said in annoyance.

Jason turned to Glen, "Just don't get any ideas." Glen gulped. He didn't want to get Jason on his bad side.

"Shannon, you could come with me if you want. Jessica, you should go with Link." Sarah bent closer to Shannon, "Unless you insist on riding with Link."

Shannon laughed. "I don't think I'd stop blushing. I'd better go with you." This made Sarah laugh.

"Everyone ready?" Link called as he mounted Epona. From their confirming nods he said, "Then mount." He mounted then reached out his hand and helped Jessica mount behind him. Everyone else followed his lead. Jeff, Jason, Robbie and Sarah in the front and Zack, Glen, Jacque and Shannon in the back. "It's not too long from here to the Village. Maybe three hours. Let's go."

*

When they arrived at the Village, everything was in disarray. People were scattering every which way and there was a fire burning somewhere. "Oops, did we forget to mention that?" Jeff said quietly. He always thought it was bad on the game but never knew how horrible it would be in real life. They only traveled a little farther when Sheik appeared.

"Link, I'm glad you've come. A monster has escaped the well, one that Impa had sealed away, supposedly for good. But now it's free and roaming about. While I work on putting out the fire you must stop these demons." After that, a huge shadow came out of the well, engulfing Link, Jeff, Shannon, Glen and Zack.

*

Finally they came to with the others standing worriedly over them. "Where's the fire?" Link asked groggily.

"While you were down, we put the fire out." Sheik explained. "Now," he said, while the others pulled the ones on the ground to their feet, "you need to get rid of the monsters and we will be able to save the Village." With that, he disappeared.

"The windmill." Sarah said and ran off in it's direction. Everyone else followed.

*

When they got out of the windmill, Jason said, "Well, that was intelligent conversation."

"At least we learned a new song." Link pointed out. They all nodded. Link pulled out the Ocarina of Time and played the Song of Storms. It began to rain. Somehow the well drained of all water and they climbed down the rusted stairs to the bottom. Seeing the hole Link turned to the others, "We'll need to go back in time. There's no way I'm gonna be able to fit in there."

Jason shook his head. "We don't. We can fit in there. We'll go and the rest of you can go get some more weapons."

Jessica strode up to him, "Well, I'm coming with."

Again, Jason shook his head. "It would be best if you stayed with Link. You can come with when we go to the Spirit Temple if you get a sword, got it?"

Slowly she nodded and stepped back. Five of them, Jason, Jeff, Sarah, Glen and Zack crawled through the hole.

A/N- Sorry I had to leave it at a cliffhanger but I got to go with my dad tomorrow and I thought that I should at least show you what I have. See ya!
