A/N Who is Alfos Red? Will Link ever get his memory back? Will Shelly come out of her coma? (Who cares about her?)


Ruto and Rauru hurried over to where Link was sitting. Link smiled and held out his hand to greet them.

"Hello and who are you two?"

Ruto blinked in wonder and then introduced herself as Princess Ruto Zora. Rauru shook Link's hand and said he was Rauru the sage of light.

Ruto and Rauru exchanged confused glances and then turned to Saria. Link also turned to her and asked who she was. Instead of answering she got up and ran out of the door tears streaming down her face.

Link asked what he had said, Rauru sat next to him putting his hand on Link's shoulder.

"Don't you know who you are?"

Link shook his head which caused him to grab it in pain. Ruto also sat down looking confused and scared at the same time. Rauru began to tell Link of all the adventures he had and who his friends were and where he lived.

A good few hours later Rauru had just finished explaining the battles in the tournament. Link was fascinated at the fact that he was destined to protect Hyrule along with the seven sages. Link looked up at Rauru.

"So why was Saria so upset?"

At this Ruto entered the conversation. Even though it hurt her still to say it and since she had a boyfriend she still managed to get the words out.

"She loves you more than anyone in Hyrule Link and when you didn't even know her I guess it hit her quite bad."

Link stared down at his blankets feeling angry that he had hurt someone who he didn't know but she obviously loved him a lot. Link felt the tears forming in his eyes. Rauru knew how Link was feeling.

"Link would you like me to go and fetch Saria here to see you?"

Link perked up at the idea as Rauru got up to go and look in the forest.

Rauru warped to Link's house and carefully climbed down the small wooden ladder. As he came to the last few steps the ladder gave way and Rauru was sent butt first to the floor.

"Ow my poor behind." He moaned as he lifted himself up and headed for the Lost Woods trying to dodge Kokiri who were walking outside.

The old sage found his way easily through the woods by using his magic light beam to guide him to the Forest Temple. As Rauru had expected there was no music sailing through the air, just gloomy silence, even the sprites weren't dancing as they usually did. Rauru entered the Sacred Forest Meadow and heard quiet sobs. He finally arrived only to see a sobbing Saria huddled up on the old rotting tree stump where she used to play her ocarina.

Rauru came up behind herplacing a hand on her shoulder.

"Please don't be upset Saria it doesn't suit you."

Saria rubbed her red eyes and looked up to see Rauru smiling down at her. She thought how strange he was, sometimes he could be as wise as the Great Deku Tree and other times he could act as dumb and funny as one of those pathetic stalfos that rode unicycles. Her mind then drifted back to Link.

Rauru knelt down beside the stump and gave her a big hug.

"Oh Rauru Link doesn't know who he is anymore what are we going to do? What am I going to do without him?" Saria started to cry into Rauru's shoulder. He told her how he had explained to Link about his past and who he is meant to be and that Link wanted to see her.

Eventually Rauru persuaded Saria to come to the Temple of Time.

Link had been talking to Ruto for a while about odd things like places in Hyrule and stuff like that.

Link brightened up as he saw Saria coming towards him. He struggled but managed to stand up. Link slowly walked towards Saria as he was close enough to touch her he wrapped his arms lightly around her. Saria returned the hug, she didn't know what to think of this it was Link but also it wasn't him it was like someone she had just met.

As Link held her close he felt a strange but comfortable warmth flow through his body it felt somehow familiar and it made him feel so happy.

Saria pulled away and sat on the bed, Link slowly made his way to sit next to her. Rauru sat on his leather couch with cream covers and used some magic to fix his smashed TV. Ruto said her goodbyes and headed off for a picnic with Mido in the forest.

There was an awkward silence between Link and Saria then Link whispered.

"I'm so sorry."

Saria turned to face him wondering what he was on about.

"I'm sorry for all of this. From what Rauru told me about the battle I think that if I had been more careful none of this would have happened." Link quietly finished with small tears trickling down his face.

He then felt a warm hand gently rub his tears away, he looked up to see Saria smiling back at him and again he felt so happy and peaceful.

Rauru leaned his head over the back of the couch and suggested that they go home especially Saria who looked ready to fall asleep on the spot.

Saria jumped up closely followed by Link who was feeling a little stronger. Saria took Link's arm and led him to the Triforce symbol where she pulled out her ocarina and played The Minuet of the Forest. The soft calm notes hummed through the temple as a bright green light surrounded Link and Saria and soon they were standing in the Sacred Forest Meadow.

Link looked around with amazement at the huge vine covered temple surrounded by a wall of tall trees. Link came out of his daze and followed Saria who was heading down the long set of stone grey stairs. Link linked arms with her and they found their way through the woodsback into the village.

Ruto and Mido were lounging by the pond enjoying a small picnic. Mido wanted to treat Ruto because he had missed all of her matches due to the fact that he needed to select a new leader to take over the village after he left.

Saria showed Link around the village getting weird looks from people who overheard what she was telling Link. Saria ignored them and dragged Link all around until they came to his house. Saria realised it might be hard for Link to climb his ladder since his back was hurt pretty bad. She suggested that he sleep in her house and she would sleep in his. Link gladly agreed.

"Thank you Saria I know why you are my girlfriend."

Saria went slightly red as she led him to her house.

"It's no problem oh and you usually call me Sar for short."

Link thanked her again and opened the door.

"Thanks again Sar." He waved and went in straight to bed to rest up.

Saria sighed and decided to go play her ocarina which she hadn't done in a while.

It didn't take her long to get back to the meadow. She sat on the old stump and took out her small light brown ocarina and began to play the song that all of the forest spirits danced to. The bouncy melody sailed through the trees waking up small scrubs and skullkids who began to play the song on their flutes.

Back in Saria's house Link sat on the bed as his eyes wandered around the small room. The circular white rug, the small table and the huge pots in the corner, they all seemed familiar. Link lay back on the bed and closed his tired eyes.

Saria was getting fed up of playing, she put down her instrument but the song still carried on deep in the woods. Suddenly the sprites disappeared, Saria sensed there was something wrong as a huge razor blade flew through the air. Luckily Saria had sensed the blade and ducked behind the log just as a massive moblin carrying a blade and a mace entered the meadow.
