Man, people have been updating a ton today! This was originally the end of Chapter 12, but I decided I had gone too long, so I cut it into two parts. Actually, I decided to do this after I had written what now are the first couple of sentences of Chapter 14.

Chapter 13
Day Negative Two Thousand Five Hundred Fifty (Seven Years in the Past): Late Morning
Temple of Time
Malon and Link woke up, as if from a dream. They had traveled seven years into the past, but something was definitely wrong. "Why am I wearing Princess Zelda's clothes still?" For Malon was still dressed in the garb of the Royal Family. Malon and Link, in their ten year old bodies, ran as fast as they could to Lon Lon Ranch.
Inside the ranch, everything seemed as normal as could be, except... "Hi, Fairy B.. Oh, I'm so sorry. Hello, Princess, to what do we owe the honor of your visit?" Zelda seemed to be completely brainwashed.
"Zelda, don't you remember? About the wish and everything?" asked Malon.
"What wish, your majesty?" So Link and Malon had to explain everything to Zelda. "So what you're saying is that you and I switched lives, and since you came back in time to before the wish, you've wound up in a parallel universe? Wow." Suddenly, a golden envelope addressed to Link, Malon, and Zelda jumped out of Link's pocket. The letter inside read like this:
Dear children,
The combination of the time travel caused by the Master Sword and the wish granted by us, the goddesses three, has caused an extremely unstable universe. In order to rectify this, Malon, you shall be sent seven years into the future. Also, the wish shall be undone until Link retrieves the Master Sword again. Malon, your ten year old self will be returned to Lon Lon Ranch, and you, Zelda, will be returned to Hyrule Castle and forget all about this incident. Link's own knowledge will be the only trace of the wish in this timeline. This shall be done at the closing of this letter. Malon, before you go, tell Link where his next destination lies.

"Link, hurry and go to the windmill in Kakariko! Play the song you learned there seven years from now! Go to the well!" And, with that, Malon disappeared in a flash of light, and Zelda was replaced with another Malon, who was unconscious. Link fled the ranch before she woke up. He didn't want to have to explain this.
In Kakariko, Link was fiddling around in his pocket when he realized that, while he had de-aged seven years, he had not lost any of the items he had picked up in the future! He pulled out the whistle and gave it a short toot. "Link! Link, hurry and get back here! I'm not sure I could handle going back to the castle if I stay in my old life for too long! I'll be waiting in your treehouse." Link played the Bolero of Fire and was warped to Death Mountain Crater, where he ran out and into Darunia's chamber. Link exited Goron City.
All right, that's it. The next part will go up as soon as I finish writing it. You can go home now.
