Note: Every time I give the day, it is the orignal day from the Switch, with the day that Malon first woke up in the castle and Zelda on the ranch being Day One. If something doesn't make sense, it's probably referring to something in the Switch.
This story will be the death of me. That's all I have to say.
The Deity's Escape
Chapter 2
Day Twelve: Morning
The Uncharted (Except in Link's Mind) Lost Woods
As planned, Link and Malon left first thing in the morning on their honeymoon, with Tael, Zelda, Fado, and Saria tagging along for a vacation. The goddesses, Din, Nayru, and Farore, were watching things through the eyes of the fairies who were named after them. Soon, the nine of them, ten counting Navi, were standing in the middle of Clock Town. "I've booked rooms for us in the Stock Pot Inn. We should head for East Clock Town." Link led the way, a little too cocky about being the only one who knew where anything was. He was so absorbed in leading the others that he walked right into the Happy Mask Man. The impact was so hard that the Fierce Deity Mask slipped out of Link's pouch.
"Link! It's been a long time! Hey, where did you get that mask? Would you mind if I tried a new technique on it?" Link consented and the salesman went to work. When he turned around, he was not holding one Fierce Deity Mask, but four. One each in white, green, black, and violet. Link thanked the man and put the masks away. They continued towards the inn and put their things away. Link was happy to note that Anju and Kafei were still together, and a little closer to each others' age than the last time he had seen them.
"Why don't we go to Romani Ranch? I have a couple friends there I'd like you to meet." Link was eager to see Romani and Cremia again.
"Sure, that's a great idea! Just as long as your friends don't look like me. That would be creepy. I've seen a few too many familiar faces around here." Malon shuddered at the thought.
"That's to be expected in a parallel dimension, Malon."
"It's still creepy. Hey, are any of the others coming?"
"Nah. Fado and Saria wanted to check out the southern swamp and Woodfall, and Tael and Zelda wanted to stay in Clock Town. I think that Tael my brother also wants to go look for Tael the fairy. I have no idea why."
"Then it's just us for a while. That'll be nice." Link and Malon exited Clock Town via the south entrance. The walk to Milk Road wasn't very long, and they were at Romani Ranch in minutes.
"Let's see if Romani and Cremia are around. HELLO? IS ANYONE HERE?" Link shouted in a booming voice. A girl identical to Malon rode up to them.
"Welcome to Romani Ranch. Can I... Grasshopper, I mean, Link? Is it you? And who's this twin of mine you have with you?"
"Hi, Romani. This is my wife, Malon. How have you been?"
"Things have been going great. We've made enough off of our Chateau Romani to renovate our house, build a bigger barn, and get more cows!"
"That's great! I'm glad you're doing so well." Link stopped when he heard a voice behind him.
"So, since Clock Town's still standing, and you're standing here with a girl who looks just like I did seven years ago and like my sister looks now, then I guess that you must have called the giants and made it back to Hyrule. You must be Malon, right? I'm Cremia."
"So, I take it that's what I'm going to look like at 25? Not bad."
"Yes, and thank you. Link told me all about you the last time he was here. Seven years for all of us and five days for you, isn't that right, Link? You're probably here on your honeymoon, right?"
"It's actually more like two weeks. I went back in time a few more times before I left. That got confusing fast. Yeah, we are on our honeymoon. I thought it would be nice to get away from Hyrule for a while, since the last time I was here I didn't even get to sleep. I'm surprised I was even awake for the wedding the day after I got back. It's probably because I took an extra three days to rest."
"Well, we should be going. Link and I have a lot more to see around here. We don't have very long here." Malon was the only one to notice that it had actually become quite late. They walked back to Clock Town, had a nice dinner by themselves in a new restaurant, then went back to the hotel to, after checking to see that the walls had been repaired, well, to do what most couples do on the first night of their honeymoon.
No, I'm not trying to put anything naughty in here, just trying to protect my plot for the future. I don't want to be backed into a corner again. Besides that, I suppose that this chapter was pointless, except for raw entertainment value, which seems low. The next two chapters will focus on Tael and Zelda, then Saria and Fado. Until next time!
