Despite the lack of reviews I've gotten lately, I'm going to generously post the next chapter anyway. The original plan was to bring Link back to the present in this chapter, but I've chosen to wait on that. I won't change that chapter at all, I've just decided to make it chapter 18 instead of 16. Instead, we're going to take a look at Malon and the much neglected Zelda in this chapter and the next.

Chapter 16
Day Five: Evening
Kokiri Forest
Malon, even without the magical powers she once had as princess, had no trouble getting to Link's treehouse without the Kokiri finding out. Although she and Zelda had been switched back, the warp she had created three days earlier still stood. She even still had her whistle to talk to Link.
Malon wasn't quite sure what was taking so long, Link should have been back by now. It didn't take him that long to clear out a dungeon. Unless... could something have happened to him? Malon was starting to get worried, when a green envelope appeared on Link's desk. It was addressed to her.
At first, Malon thought it might be another letter from the goddesses, when she realized that it was a green envelope, not a gold one. Malon rushed over to the desk and ripped open the envelope as fast as she could.
Dear Malon,
I know you're probably worried about me, but don't. I'm fine. I had to do something else while I'm still in the past. Let's just say it was an emergency. I'll be back as soon as I can, but I have to wait until all of the Kokiri are asleep to finish what I have started. If I don't, well, then we'd better hope that the goddesses haven't granted too many wishes. I miss you so much. I'll be back before bedtime. It's a lucky thing that the Kokiri fall asleep very close to nightfall.
Link
Malon set the letter down with a sigh of relief. That meant that Link was already done in the well, and he had returned to the forest. But what did he mean by 'an emergency'? And why did he have to wait until the Kokiri were asleep? Malon was confused, but she just shrugged it off. 'He'll explain when he gets back.' Malon went to Link's bed and took a nap.
Now, I know there are more people out there who like my story than are reviewing. How hard is it to click the little button and review? I didn't ever review before, but since writing my own story here, I've come to realize how important it really is. It lets you know that there is actually someone out there reading your story, and that all that you are doing is not for naught! (hee hee hee... that rhymes!) It's nice to know that you're not just writing into empty space. The next chapter will be similar to this one, but about Zelda. I've neglected her too much ever since she and Malon first met at the castle. I tried to put her in a little back when Link and Malon went back in time, but that didn't quite work out as planned. I have a little plan in mind to make sure that Zelda doesn't get neglected anymore. The gauntlet is just the start of that plan.
