*********************************************************************** Hi, I'm back again! We left off when Saria left the Lost Woods so she could go save Hyrule. She probably going to get her sword in this and gets a 'new wardrobe' so she can fight better. She also gets a horse. Hopefully you enjoy it. My disclaimer is at the begginging of the first chapter. Enjoy.

PS. Do cliffs surround Lon Lon Ranch? I dunno, but that's what surround it in this story. Please say in your review if you know.

Now once again...ENJOY! *sigh* ***********************************************************************

Saria walked out of the Lost Woods. Some monsters must have come here because the sky was black. Nothing seemed to be on fire, though.

"OK, so where do we go?" Saria asked her fairy, who flew out of her pocket. "Uhhhh, hmm. I don't know." Remi said, looking at her. "I haven't been outside the woods before either."

Saria looked around, hoping to see someone. 'Quit being stupid! No one would be out of their houses in this weather...'. Saria saw a little place surrounded by cliffs in the middle of the field. "We should try to go there." Saria said, pointing to the spot. "OK, let's go."

Saria and Remi walked across Hyrule Field. When they were almost there, there was a sign. "Lon Lon Ranch ahead, it says. OK, so the place were are going to is Lon Lon Ranch. That's where Link got Epona." Saria said. "OK, so let's go." Remi agreed as they went towards Lon Lon Ranch.

************* They're at Lon Lon Ranch *************

Saria walked in with caution, just in case. There was nothing or no one in sight. She guessed Drake's men hadn't touched the place yet, or so it seemed. Saria just looked around. She stayed around the stable, because she didn't want to find anyting that wasn't her buisness. Remi flew beside her.

"Who are you?" A young, female voice asked. Saria jumped and whipped around. Remi flew into her pocket. A girl with long chestnut hair looked at her. Her large, blue eyes starred at her. "I'm Saria." Saria told her. "I'm from Kokiri Forest."

"Cool! I'm Malon." Malon smiled at her. Saria didn't feel so tense anymore, since she knew who every one was. She knew Malon because Link told her about her, but she didn't know what she looked like, until now, of course. "Why are you out of the Kokiri Forest? Won't you die?" Malon questioned her. Remi flew out of her pocket. "She's destinied to save Hyrule!" Remi said proudly. She explained what happened in the Lost Woods.

Malon nodded. "So that's why everything been going weird." Malon smiled. "I was just about to take the horses out. Can you help?" Malon asked her. "Sure." Saria smiled at her as they walked into the barn.

The horses were eating the oats that Talon had gave them. One of the cows were being milked by Ingo. Saria was distracted by everything. Epona used to just wander around the forest eating the grass and drinkin the water were the stepping stones were. All Link and her ever did for her was groom her, give her oats and carrots and help her when she was sick. Other than that Epona did whatever she felt like doing.

Saria went back to reality when Malon handed her a halter. "Can you take out that horse there? She's really gentle and nice, so don't worry about her." Malon told her. Saria turned to see which horse she was talking about. It was a beautiful pinto. She had a long, muscular neck with short, strong legs.

"What's this horses name?" Saria questioned Malon, patting the horse. The horse neighed happily, nibbling her hair. "That's Masuya." Malon replied as she haltered a big, bay stallion. "She's a Paint and can run real fast. You can have her for your journey as long as you look after her and return her when your quest is done." Malon offered.

"Really? Thanks! How much do I owe you for leasing her?" Saria asked. "Just looking after her is fine." Malon scanned her. Saria went tense. "Are you realy going to save Hyrule from Drake in that dress?" Malon asked her. Saria looked down at her dress that didn't even reach her thighs. She blushed.

"Stay right here. I'll be right back." Malon tied the horse to a little rail and ran out of the stable. Saria just stroked and praised Masuya. After about 4 minutes Malon came running out with boots like Link's, green pants and a white T-Shirt.

"Here, have these." Malon tossed the clothes to her. Saria dropped almost everything except for the shirt and a boot. "You can fight better in these because you are more flexible." Malon smiled again and Saria wondered if her cheeks were getting sore. Malon took out the rest of the horses and Saria changed upstairs in the house.

The pants were alittle baggy, but the t-shirt and the boots fitted right. "Well, at least I can get to places quicker and move around better than I could in my dress." Saria told herself as she put on the other boot. "One step completed."

Saria went downstairs. Malon smiled at her...again. "They fit great!" Malon said loudly. "You should ride Masuya now." Saria nodded and walked toward the horse. Remi flew out of her pocket for the first time in a while and settled herself on Saria's shoulder. "We could have done fine without her help you know." Remi muttered so Saria could hear.

"Well at least she helped us out! Better than nothing!" Saria hissed back as she mounted Masuya. Remi paused and flew back into Saria's pocket. "Do you know how to ride?" Malon asked her. "Yeah, I've done it before." Saria said, remebering when she rode Epona.

For some strange reason, Remi was VERY pissed off. She flew out in front of the horse on purpose. Masuya reared and galloped around the corral. Malon running behind them yelling instuctions didn't help either. Masuya ran for the fence that surrounded the entire place. Masuya went faster and jumped out.

******************************************************************** Yes, extremly boring chapter. I promise the other one will be more action- filled and more PG-ish. This one was rated G. I'll start writing the 3rd chapter right away.
