Now the tower of Ganon falls, ever closer to the beacon pearl, we join Link an Tetra enjoying soup at Link's grandmothers house. The crew, Stergeon, and Orca are also there.

"I must say, your soup is delicious Mrs. Grandma." Stergeon said as he was taking a second helping.

"Oh why thank you Stergeon; Link seems to enjoy it too."

Everyone turned to Link who was pigging out on the soup.

"What?" Link asked embarressed.

Everyone then laughed.

"So, Link have you been practicing your sword lessons?" Orca asked while taking in a mouthful of delicious soup.

"Of course Master Orca!; would you like a sparring session after dinner?"

"Certainly Link, I'd love too!" Orca said taking in another mouthful of soup.

"That is if I can still move after this dinner is over."

Everyone laughed again.

"Tetra have you considered marrying my grandson?" , asked Link's grandmother.

"Grandma!", Link yelled between swallows.

"Oh, its okay Link, um seeing as we're only 13 I haven't given it much thought." Tetra said casually.

"Uh, me and the crew have decided to watch the ship, bye." Gonzo one of the crew members,said as he left.

"Well that was abrupt!" Stergeon said angrily."If I didn't know better I'd say he was jealous of you Link!"

"Nonsense!, Gonzo just wants to make sure the ship isn't stolen, that's all!" Tetra said.

"I suppose, but on Outset Island?" Stergeon said taking in some noodles.

"He has a point, Tetra." Link said.

"Oh, you too eh?; well I don't have to stand for such rudeness, I'm leaving!"

"Aw, Tetra don't go, we were just kidding." Link pleaded.

"Hmph! Kidding or not such rudeness cannot be overlooked." Tetra said slamming the door behind her.

"Aw, Tetra!; aw man, you had to get her mad didn't you Stergeon!" Link said chasing after Tetra.

"Hmph! I'll never understand todays youth!" Stergeon said taking in another helping of soup.

***********************************************

"Tetra! Tetra where are you?, Oh!; there you are!; what are you doing on the top of Outset?" Link asked.

"Oh, just silently fuming." Tetra said.

"Oh; listen Tetra I'm sorry for how Stergeon acted, sometimes being cooped up in his room to long takes its toll." Link said apollogetically.

"Oh, it's okay Link, I should be apologizing, I did make an outburst and kinda ruined your get together after all."

"Nonsense! You were just standing up for your crew is all, you didn't do anything wrong."

"Oh, Link what would I do without you."

"I don't know, but I certainly don't want to find out!"

Then apologies said they headed back to Link's house.

"Hey, everybody! We're back? What are you guys doing?" Link asked.

"Well after you left Stergeon left to find you and apologize, when a Merman appeared and told him of a great danger headed this way. He said that his brother on Overlook Island told him of a huge storm headed this way." Grandma said.

"So, storms are common on the great sea what's so special about this one?" Tetra said curiously.

"Well he said that this storm brought with it great winds practically eroding Overlook in seconds!"

"What!" Link asked worriedly. "Where is this storm coming from?"

"The northeast due southwest it should be here in a matter of days!"

"Days?" Link said weakly.

"Oh I almost forgot! He gave Stergeon this map for Tingle to decode, can you take it there?

"Sure we can; come on Link let's get there before the storm draws closer!" Tetra said.

So they gathered their stuff four bottles of soup and Stergeon to take with them to Tingle Isle. Once on the ship they instantly warped to Tingle Isle.

****************************************************

"Tingle! Tingle get up!" Link said to the Tingle tuner.

"Huh, wha- yawn- oh, hello Mr. Fairy." Tingle said drowsily,"What is it?"

"We need a map decoded, and now!" Tetra said to the tuner.

"Hm! Who are you? Oooooh, I get it! Got a girlfriend do you Mr. Fairy?"

"TINGLE!" Link yelled into the tuner. "This is no time for games!; we're on are way and we need you to decode this map!"

"A map?! Well why didn't you say so Mr. Fairy?! I'll get right on it!"

"Good, we're a few yards away. Get ready!"

**************************************************

"Soooo, this is the map eh? Looks old. I should be done in the morning."

"Nooo, you'll be done in a few hours, that is if you enjoy being able to walk!" Tetra said menacingly.

"Boy can she be imposing when she wants to be!" Link thought to himself.

"Y-yes maam, I'll get right on it."

So a few hours passed when...

"Here it is, fully and completely decoded, and if I must say that this is some of my finest-"

"Cut the chatter; we'll be off now, thank you for your services." Tetra said sharply.

"Now you wait just a minute! Tingle said angrily. "What about my reimbursements?"

"Reimbursements?" Tetra said with fire in her eyes.

"Yes, the 50,000 rupees, you owe me for that map!"

"WHAT?!; my ship costs less than that!" Tetra yelled.

"Too bad! You threatened me, you rushed me, then you don't expect me to want a meager reward for my services?"

"MEAGER?!; that's about as much money as I've ever collected!; we are not paying!"

"Then no map for you!" Tingle said, quickly yanking the map and turning his back.

"Why you-" Tetra started as Link stopped her.

"Listen Tingle." Link said calmly.

"The whole world rests upon that map! Wouldn't you like to be known as the hero who helped save the world?--Hey that has a certain ring to it-- Sure it does, and all you have to do is give us that map; So will you do it? Will you help save the whole world?"

"Mmmmm, I'll do it!" Tingle said giving Link the map.

"But you'd better save the world or I'm charging double!"

"Y-yeah okay." Link said weakly. "Well you heard him you guys! Let's go!"

"Hey, Link."

"Yes, Tetra?"

"Will you ever cease to amaze me?"

"Well gee, I hope not."

"Good, then let's go!" Tetra said giggling.
