I have nothing to say other than good luck making any sense of this story during my updating frenzy. The story's ok, but what chapter was posted when is a pain. This is the chapter that should have been posted last Sunday. I should be able to make a dent in this chapter debt soon and erase all the notes that refer to it. If anyone reads this, then comes back later and finds that the chapters are not in the correct order, please e-mail me or IM me. ekgiii@aol.com, for those that are too lazy to look at my profile. And if you can't figure out my AIM name from that, I pity you. And I suggest you hit my profile to be enlightened.
The Deity's Escape
Chapter 9
Day Fourteen, Second Day, Third Three Day Cycle; 8:00 AM, 46 Hours Remain
Kokiri Forest
Link slept relatively late out of exaustion. He had almost forgotten what it felt like not to sleep from the last time he had been in Termina. As soon as he woke up, he ran to Saria's house to get her and Nayru. "Come on, we have to get the others! We only have two days, and I was only able to find three of the ten missing people in the first day!"
"Link, we all know that you're just anxious to see Malon. Don't worry. We're ready." Under normal circumstances, Link would have almost been shocked to hear Nayru speaking exactly like Saria would, but he was too excited to think anything of it. He ran to his treehouse as fast as his legs could carry him and opened the trapdoor. He dived down it so fast, he almost fell on his head in the clearing. He ran out through the warp, while Nayru and Saria followed at a more leisurely pace.
Just as Link predicted, Malon was here on the ranch, assisting the 'ranch sitter' they had hired, a man called Ingo. She was facing the other way, so Link ran up behind her, and in one swift motion turned her around and wrapped her in a suffocating hug. "Mfrgg! Ah ca bweef!" was all she could say. Link loosened his grip on her. "I said I can't breathe. Link, where did you end up?"
"I woke up in South Clock Town, in the usual place, but I was like this, ten years old, just like you, and Tatl was with me. Saria and her fairy, Nayru, woke up in the Kokiri Forest, except..."
"Hi, Malon." The small green fairy floated up to Malon. All she could do was stare at the glowing creature. Surely enough, it was Saria. "Listen, I know this is weird, but you'll have to get over it quick. We have two days to find as many of the others as we can. We have to get moving."
"All right. If you know where the others ended up, I guess we can get going right away. Ingo, could you help us get three horses ready?"
"Malon, wait. We won't be needing horses. Malon, Nayru, come with me." Link lead the Fairies, the Hylian, and the Kokiri to the shed in the back. "We have to pick up Zelda. If I'm right, she'll be back in Hyrule Castle. Lucky we put in this warp. If we hadn't, this would be nearly impossible." The six of them walked through the warp, but when they emerged from behind Zelda's dresses, they were greeted with an empty room.
Trust me, it's less mysterious than it sounds. All will be revealed soon. Extremely soon, if all goes to plan. This chapter took me about an hour, but I took a break in there, so the next one won't be far behind. And, no I'm not trying to bang these things out so fast that I'm not writing as good. If my writing isn't looking too good, that's my own inferior skills. I always write these things quickly. Well, on to the next chapter. Maybe I'll have them all together by the end of the night, if I manage to get caught up. Hmm...
