Hoshi-Boorei:
Hooray! My second chapter! Confusing to get it up, but I think that I (hopefully) have it all sorted now! Thanks!
You will notice that I like to really dig into the lives surrounding the characters. I sit there and delve into thoughts
of what it would be like to live in Kokiri Forest, or in Hyrule.
It really is quite funny when you watch me play, as I will make my game an
elaborate 'play'.
I'll create dialogues that aren't really there between the characters, give it some drama! Saria & Link can talk about the fireflies, Zelda & Link can profess their undying love for each other, Darunia can complain about is
rock hard fl-abs...it's like playing dolls really.
I'm such a dork! Oh well! I'm just all sixes and sevens you know, and darn
proud of it too!
Anyhow, enough of my waffling on! I'm not going to skive it any longer, really! Well, you'll be getting aggro on me soon enough if I don't pack it
in! To the story now!
Shufti (take a look) & enjoy! Thanks!

"Link, you stupid oaf! Where have you been all day? The city gathering is in thirteen minutes and I have been looking for you all day you good-for- nothing!" exclaimed Mido as he saw Link approaching. Mido was sitting on Link's porch, and had apparently helped himself to a pomegranate from inside Link's home, as it was obvious from Mido's purple stained fingers and the seeds of which he had at hand. He threw the whole slimy wad Link's feet and insisted that Link go to the town's meeting area at once.
"Now! Otherwise you shall be punished you filth!" spat Mido as he walked away grumbling about how now he would not be able to properly prepare himself for the meeting to take place. Link looked down at his feet and shook off the remaining saliva covered pomegranate seeds. He turned around and strode up the path towards the city commons in front of the city store. He stopped briefly to wash off the seed stains on his legs and boots, and then hopped across the stepping-stones to the commons. Link made his way through his Kokiri friends and villagers to a deserted stepping stone by himself.
Mido took his place above the commons atop the bridge. "Sorry I am late fellow devoted citizens...I had some, trash to take care of shall we say, that took me longer than it should have!" declared Mido as he shot a venomous glance at Link. "But now then...we have to take care of the unkemptness of this fine city, and I as your leader command you all, and hear my words, a new law set tomorrow to dispose of all the rocks and unwanted weeds in this city. I hereby...."
Link decided Mido's new laws for the city were not worth listening to and Link began examining the fish swimming below him in the water. A blue one, a purple one and an orange one began to swarm around a piece of biscuit Link threw into the water, and Link smiled as the purple one stole it and swam away.
"And I hereby state that I Mido, leader of this fine city---excuse me! Link! Is there any efforts that need to be made to focus your attention to importance...me, and my importance that is!?" exclaimed Mido furiously. "Or do I need to have the citizens take action against you?" finished Mido.
All eyes now focused on Link in astonishment, Link now blushed a red that rivaled with the color of his bright sash. Link stumbled the words from his mouth as he looked down in embarrassment. "Na-no Mr. Mido...I shall listen." Stuttered Link.
"Well, then...accompany me up here if you would. Chop-chop! The village doesn't want to wait all day!" said Mido with a mocking gleam in his eyes as Link stumbled to his feet. Link hurried up behind Saria's old house, stopping a moment, not wanting to go back into the eyes of the villagers.
"Oh Link! We are waiting!" rang Mido's voice. Link stepped forward, and Mido motioned for Link to sit at his feet.
"Ah! Now Then! Where were we? Ah yes...the Deku Tree declared that we must each one of us perform the duty every hour of bringing him a bottle of water, and pouring it at his feet throughout twenty four hour periods. I shall have my assistant post a copy of the schedule in the shop. And yes...it does require some of us to get up in the middle of the night, but...for our leader's requirements, we shall do it!"
"But...Mr. Mido...could not we make a reservoir of water for him as the Kokiri before us did for The Ancient Deku Tree when he was a sprout? It works as well-" said Kekichi, a village member.
"Silence you! Are you questioning my brilliance!? I command we do this, for I-er-the Great Deku Sprout requires fresh, I say, fresh water for his roots!" said Mido.
"Yes sir, I understand!" replied Kekichi respectfully, appearing quite embarrassed.
"Well then! I am assuming there are no more questions as to my plans? Good-evening then Kokiri village!" declared Mido as he turned arrogantly towards the winding path to home. And after Mido was out of sight and hearing range, the Kokiri began to chatter and retire towards their homes.
Link saw Kekichi headed home with slumped figure of embarrassment. "Hey Kekichi...it's alright about Mido. He's not a good person, just a big- headed bully! He does this to everyone. You know that! Someday I believe even the Great Deku Sprout will rise up to make him back down, because people like him never change, and they are never right." said Link soothingly to Kekichi, who had now stopped in his tracks and looked at Link in astonishment.
"You know, if Mido saw us talking now...he'd know what were saying without even hearing! I must go! I don't want to be bothered anymore! Sorry he did that to you too...I am fine! Thanks for caring...bye." said Kekichi turning leaving Link staring behind him.
Link decided it was probably time for him to get home also. Sleep seemed to be a perfect antidote, a temporary cure for pain in daily life. But before he went home, he sat on the stepping-stone near the waterfall a short distance away. After a moment Link jumped into the cool, refreshing water. He swam about a bit, and then looked up at the moon. No one was outside at this time, and Link decided he should probably go home also. Link climbed his ladder, humming Zelda's Lullaby to himself as he glanced once more at the lovely silver moon, the sight of which reminded him of Zelda. He then walked into his house and went to bed. He hoped he could sleep long enough for people to forget tonight.
