Gust: Look, she's angry! How are going to hurt us? Make us disappear by typing?
Hail: Yeah Right! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Actually that sounds like a good idea! Let me see....
(Begins typing, suddenly both Djinn disappear into thin air.)
IT WORKED!
Sleet: I'm back! Hey where'd everybody go? And why are you giving me a look of total control and you-can't-hurt-me-anymore?
Because it's true!
Sleet: You having total control? Give me a break! HAHAHAHA! ACK!
(Suddenly Sleet disappears.)
YES! Now that they're all gone, let the story continue! HAHAHAHA! HACK! HARF! COUGH! COUGH! Why do I even try to do these things? Here's the chapter and I don't own anything of Zelda and never will. This is for my own pathetic amusement....
Chapter Ten: Seeing What Is Inside
Link joined the girls in the circle, but didn't take any flowers. Instead he and Saria played Saria's Song together as the others stopped what they were doing to look and listen to them. Zelda was in the back of the group, still weaving the flowers together with her magic. The song was so lively, and she could see spirits of fairies and animals sitting on the trees listening to the song. One of the spirits that must have been a pet cat had gone down and was sitting on Zelda's lap. While using on hand to use her magic she used the other to pet the cat, it purred in delight, it hadn't been touched by a human hand in a least three-hundred years.
'This song seems to sooth the spirits, I don't know why, but I feel something coming from Saria. It's a lively feeling, just like the forest has, Impa even has that I can feel, but Impa's is dark and shadowy. I don't get it, what is it? The Big Brother has it too, so does the princess of the Zora's, Ruto. I've only seen Ruto once when I was visiting the Zora's Domain; she was taking a dive from their waterfall.'
She let her thoughts drown away as she finished up the last of the last of the flowers. She put the flower jewelry down in a pile gently as some of spirit birds fluttered down to see if the cat was actually being petted by someone among the living. When they landed on Zelda, Zelda now used her other free hand to touch and give each spirit bird special treatment. Eventually most of the spirits had come down to greet Zelda and be touched by her warm hands, none of them went near the Korkori, because the Korkori children didn't have the gift to see them and might accidentally sit on them or hit them. She was in the middle of petting a spirit wolf when she noticed that the playing had stopped and that everyone staring at her.
Giggling, she looked at everyone. "Sorry, I'm just...."
She couldn't tell them like she could tell Impa, because Impa could see spirits too, all Sheikah could. But they didn't, and she couldn't just tell them that she was petting spirits!
Saria got up with her Ocarina in hand and looked at Zelda, and then reaching out to her shoulder, she picked up a spirit and began petting it.
"You can see spirits?" she asked, Zelda felt astonished at the fact that Saria could see them as well as she could.
"Yes."
"It must be your magic that lets you see them, I've always been able to them, but this bunch has always been too scared of me to come near. How is it that they come to you?"
"I don't know, the cat on my lap came first and then some birds, and then eventually most of the rest them came down."
Link got up from his spot and then walked towards them with a questionable face.
"Spirits? Saria told me that could see spirits, but I didn't know that you could Zelda!"
"My magic," said Zelda, and begin petting the cat on lap again. "Let's me see spirits, like the Karkariko Village Graveyard, I talk to the spirits there. Most of them are nice, some of them have just died and are mourning over the fact that they can't talk to their loves ones anymore. Some have no family, I mean 'had' no family left and were happy to be dead. There are no robbers or murderers or anyone from that category because the ancient Sheikah rules say that those who did bad deeds before they died didn't deserve to be among those who were good."
"That's really weird!"
"Link, don't take another step forward." Zelda told him as Saria looked at a fairy spirit.
"What? Why not?"
"If you do, you'll step on a spirit, and even though you can't see them, you can still hurt them."
"OK, that's kind of weird...."
Link didn't move but the Korkori girls began asking Zelda about what it was like to be able to talk spirits. She just told them it was just like talking to the living, and Saria said with animal and fairy spirits it was just the same as if they were in their flesh and bone. Zelda eventually told Link that he could sit next to her if he wanted, and he did. They all kept on talking until the sun was beginning to come down, and then began heading back to the Korkori homes.
Most of the girls offered for Zelda to stay at their homes, but Zelda politely told them no-thank-you. When all of them had separated and said good-night to Link and Zelda, Saria took this chance to ask something of Zelda.
"Zelda?"
"Yes Saria?"
"Would you mind if you told me about the outside world, I mean Link's told me about it, but I need a girl's point of view, if you know what I mean."
"Sure, although, I'll have to be going soon to get back to Death Mountain with Link soon. Of course that will be whenever he leaves."
"OK! Thanks!"
Saria ran to her home, and Link took Zelda to the bottom of his tree- house.
"What was that all about?" He asked her quietly so they wouldn't disturb any of the Korkori as they ate of either slept.
"What was what about?"
"You coming with me to Death Mountain."
"Well we're partners, aren't we?"
"You mean you're not going to try and get there before I do?"
"If you plan to stay here for a long-time, then yes I will. But if you're not, then I'm going to go with you."
"Partners, you aren't joking?"
"Nope."
"Well that's great! And you won't try and bite me or something?"
"Don't know, you look pretty tasty." She replied back to him in a sarcastic tone.
"Hey, why did you turn down all of those offers to sleep at any of the Korkori girls' houses?"
"Not sure. It's probably just that I'm not used to sleeping indoors that I'm used to turning down offers like that."
"Don't you have a home or something?"
"No... well, Hyrule is my home. Or something like that."
"Well, this sounds a little odd, but would you like to stay at my tree-I mean house?"
"Sure!"
"Ok, just don't trip on the ladder."
Link went up first, and Zelda went up after him. They walked in, and Zelda spotted a small white light on Link's bed. As Link took his sword, shield, and arrows off his back Zelda went to go see what it was. She knew what it was though, it was a fairy, all of the Korkori girls had had one with them. She knelt down and looked to see a young female in the light; she had long braids and a slender body. Her clothes were made out of vines and flowers, and her wings crystal clear, although when the light hit them rainbow colors were revealed. Her eyes were closed, indicating that she was asleep.
Zelda couldn't help but smile as she looked at the peaceful fairy, then, the fairy opened one eye and looked at Zelda.
"You're not Link." She told Zelda in a sleepy voice as she rubbed one eye. Zelda's smile widened as she listened to the fairy's extraordinary high-pitched voice. Yawning she stood up, hands on her hips and both eyes open she inspected Zelda with careful eyes. "But you are beautiful, and that's a good image to wake up to!"
Link walked over when he heard the fairy's voice, and the fairy looked up at him with shock.
"But you are Link! Welcome home!"
She fluttered up and then hugged Link's check and he lightly touched her back with both hands. She gave him a small peck on the cheek before she gave him another hug and then flew over and sat down on Zelda's hair.
"Your hair is tangled and messed up! By the way what's your name?"
"My name is Zelda. It's nice to meet you, what's your name?"
"Navi! Link's guardian fairy and partner! Well, I can't fight, but I can tell him where hidden or suspicious things are! And I can help him see what's around corners and help him aim when he's fighting. Hey, are you Link's girlfriend or something? He needs one! I swear he never talks to girls; he's always too nervous most of the time. So tell me, how'd he get the courage to ask you out?"
Link slightly turned pink and Zelda stood up and giggled.
"What's so funny?"
"Zelda is NOT my girlfriend Navi! She's my partner!"
Navi gasped and then looked to Link to Zelda.
"YOU TWO ARE MARRIED?"
"NO! Just partners in fighting!"
"Oh," she said in a calmer tone. "Why didn't you just say so?"
"Farore's name...."
Zelda felt Navi begin to mess her hair and then she flew to the front of Zelda's face.
"Let me do you hair! Link never lets me do his hair; he says it's for girls! And you are a girl, so you wouldn't care. I promise I won't mess it up!"
"Sure."
Navi did a swirl around Zelda's head and then took Zelda's hand and pulled her with amazing strength over to a chair. Sitting down, Zelda looked at Link and smiled as Navi whizzed out the door to get something.
"Your fairy's nice."
"Yeah, but sorry about the whole we're lovers thing, she often exaggerates about things like that."
"Its fine, even though no one's ever done something like that before."
"You really don't mind staying here?"
"Of course."
"You just turned into a completely different person, I swear on the Goddess names! Although your other side was a lot more challenging to handle, it was... well...."
"Tame me? Don't even think that you can tame me for a moment!" She told him with a grin on her face. "And trust me, that is not going to be the last time you see my angry side!"
Navi flew back in, carrying a hairbrush.
That night Link couldn't sleep, he felt restless, like something was wrong. It was at least a little past mid-night, but he still couldn't go to sleep. It wasn't that his bed was too lumpy, it wasn't the fact that a girls was sleeping on another mattress across the room. There was just something wrong. He could feel it.
A little while later, he heard Zelda get up from her bed. He was facing the wall, so he didn't have to worry about her noticing that he was awake. She walked out his room and out to where his ladder was and then took in deep breaths of air. After a while she began to climb down his ladder.
'Is she leaving?' he thought as he silently got up and began to follow her. He waited until she was off the ladder, and then also waited until she was a little far off until he peeked over his balcony. She was walking around in a circle, rubbing her temples with both of her pointer fingers. She was making noises, she sounded frustrated, something was defiantly bothering her. He quietly went down the ladder, then advancing to Zelda he noticed that she was so wrapped up in her thoughts that she didn't even notice him until he actually touched her shoulder.
"What? Only my guardian scares me like that!" she told him a whisper- yell.
"What's wrong?" he asked her in the same quiet voice.
"I can... feel something. Something isn't right. Some black-magic is taking place over towards that cliff behind those trees."
Link froze with shock, that was the Lost Woods.
"Are you sure it's coming from over there?"
"Yes I'm sure! Why wouldn't I be?"
"Never mind...."
"I'm going to go check it out!"
"Not without me your not!"
"Not without me either!" Both Link and Zelda looked at Navi who had flown down during their conversation. "I'm coming with you too!"
Navi flew and then landed on top of Zelda's head, and Link looked at Navi with shock.
"Why did you go on her head and not mine?"
"Because her hair is soft and velvety!"
"And mine isn't?"
"Your hairs usually dirty!"
Link sighed and then signaled for Zelda to follow him. It was useless trying to argue with his fairy, she always won the fights. Zelda hesitated to follow, and Link looked at her with a questionable face. She pointed to her nightgown, and then pointed back to his house. Link nodded, and then she ran back up to get dresses.
It seemed like she had barely gotten in his house when she came back out, this time she was wearing a blue tunic, it so dark it was almost black. She still put her circlet on with Navi sitting on its brim. She had also brought Link all of his weapons, and he was grateful for that. Once she was back down Link took his stuff and then put them in their usual places. He took her hand and led her over to the entrance of the Lost Woods.
"Zelda, are you sure you want to wear such a dark color? I might not be able to see you in this darkness."
"Alright, just a second."
Pointing down at her tunic she whispered, "I don't like this stupid color, so let a white one be a bit better." Instantly her tunic changed into a white one, and even her boots turned white.
"That better?" she asked him sarcastically.
"I thought spells are supposed to rime?"
"I don't know why people think that, why do they think that?"
"Never mind, let's go!"
She nodded and then followed him into the entrance of the Lost Woods; Navi zipped in front of them, meaning to be their light.
"Link!"
"What is it Zelda?"
"I can tell which was to go, I can sense which was feels the most evil!"
"Alright."
Letting Zelda take the lead, he followed her through different tunnels and pathways. And after a while, he realized that she was leading them to the place where he and Saria would spend the day at. The place where Saria would sit on the old playing her Ocarina, in front of some old ruined stairs that would lead up to somewhere unknown. He was hoping that Zelda would take a turn and lead them away from that certain place, she just on going in the correct places.
Eventually they got there, it looked the same, but Link could feel that something was terribly wrong. He knew that Zelda and Navi could feel it too; all of their eyes were upon the broken stairs behind the stump. He walked closer, then pulled out his Ocarina and played Saria's Song. Zelda didn't say anything, but walked up to where she was right underneath the stairs.
He heard Saria answer, and felt grateful, but when she spoke to him, he felt worried for her with a sickening heart ach.
"Link," Saria cried out from his Ocarina, "please help me, the spirits of the forest called me to the place where we always play at, and told me go into the place where the stairs are. But there are too many monsters, please help me! Please!"
She was cut off before he could say anything, and then he looked up at the stairs, putting his Ocarina back. It began to rain, cold and hard. He had to help her, but how could he get up there?
"Forest Temple."
Link looked at Zelda, who was looking up at the stairs.
"What do you mean by 'Forest Temple,' what is it?"
"Forest Temple is the temple where it keeps the life of living thing plants in balance. If knocked off balance, then it could make all of the crops that Hyrule has wither and die. That," she told him as she pointed to the stairs. "Is the Forest Temple, I can hear the Spirits of the forest calling for help. I can get up there, but I don't know about you." She turned around, her hair wet but it still seemed soft and clean. Navi was standing under her, shivering from the cold.
"You can get up there? How?"
"I can teleport since there isn't anything in my path, when I'm up there, I'll try and find some way to get you up."
He looked at her, and saw the wisdom in her eyes. She wasn't scared, but she wasn't sure about where she was going to go either, he saw the true part of her, the part that people never see. It was her soul, burning with stubbornness and will. He was seeing inside her.
He nodded, and she ran over next to him, she seemed to switch places, moving to different spots and then checking back at the stairs. Navi flew back to Link, and finally she found a certain spot that seemed to suit her and then cried out in the booming thunder, "Let me go across the wind and fly like a bird!"
Her feet lifted off of the ground, and for a moment Link thought she was going to fly, but then her body turned into a white light, then it became something like a thin string and disappeared. She reappeared at the top of the stairs, and then began searching for something to pull Link up with. Then, she pointed over to some vines nearby the stairs, she yelled out something, but he couldn't hear what she was saying. She kept on pointing the vines, and then Navi flew over next to them, going up and down them. He figured that Navi and Zelda were suggesting that he climb up the vines, so he walked over to them and started climbing.
It was hard work, because the rain had seemed to make them slippery, when he was close enough to the stairs, Zelda held her hand out to him, and he reached up, making sure to keep a good grip on the vines. Grapping her hand Zelda began to try and help pull Link up, but it was slow; he and his weapons were proving to be too heavy for her. Her arm glowed with magic, and she yanked Link up with surprising strength. It was so strong than he landed right on top of her, and he instantly jumped off of her.
"Sorry!" He yelled at her, glad that it was dark so she couldn't his blushing face. She nodded and then got up, and then she ran into the entrance of what she had called the Forest Temple. Link followed her, not sure of where he was going, but still feeling his courage inside of him, pushing him to go on.

Chapter Ten: Seeing What Is Inside
Link joined the girls in the circle, but didn't take any flowers. Instead he and Saria played Saria's Song together as the others stopped what they were doing to look and listen to them. Zelda was in the back of the group, still weaving the flowers together with her magic. The song was so lively, and she could see spirits of fairies and animals sitting on the trees listening to the song. One of the spirits that must have been a pet cat had gone down and was sitting on Zelda's lap. While using on hand to use her magic she used the other to pet the cat, it purred in delight, it hadn't been touched by a human hand in a least three-hundred years.
'This song seems to sooth the spirits, I don't know why, but I feel something coming from Saria. It's a lively feeling, just like the forest has, Impa even has that I can feel, but Impa's is dark and shadowy. I don't get it, what is it? The Big Brother has it too, so does the princess of the Zora's, Ruto. I've only seen Ruto once when I was visiting the Zora's Domain; she was taking a dive from their waterfall.'
She let her thoughts drown away as she finished up the last of the last of the flowers.

She couldn't tell them like she could tell Impa, because Impa could see spirits too, all Sheikah could. But they didn't, and she couldn't just tell them that she was petting spirits!
Saria got up with her Ocarina in hand and looked at Zelda, and then reaching out to her shoulder, she picked up a spirit and began petting it.
"You can see spirits?" she asked, Zelda felt astonished at the fact that Saria could see them as well as she could.

"Would you mind if you told me about the outside world, I mean Link's told me about it, but I need a girl's point of view, if you know what I mean."
"Sure, although, I'll have to be going soon to get back to Death Mountain with Link soon. Of course that will be whenever he leaves."
"OK! Thanks!"
Saria ran to her home, and Link took Zelda to the bottom of his tree- house.
"What was that all about?" He asked her quietly so they wouldn't disturb any of the Korkori as they ate of either slept.
"What was what about?"
"You coming with me to Death Mountain."
"Well we're partners, aren't we?"
"You mean you're not going to try and get there before I do?"

"Partners, you aren't joking?"
"Nope."
"Well that's great! And you won't try and bite me or something?"
"Don't know, you look pretty tasty." She replied back to him in a sarcastic tone.

"Navi! Link's guardian fairy and partner! Well, I can't fight, but I can tell him where hidden or suspicious things are! And I can help him see what's around corners and help him aim when he's fighting. Hey, are you Link's girlfriend or something? He needs one! I swear he never talks to girls; he's always too nervous most of the time. So tell me, how'd he get the courage to ask you out?"
Link slightly turned pink and Zelda stood up and giggled.

"YOU TWO ARE MARRIED?"
"NO! Just partners in fighting!"
"Oh," she said in a calmer tone. "Why didn't you just say so?"
"Farore's name...."
Zelda felt Navi begin to mess her hair and then she flew to the front of Zelda's face.

Navi flew back in, carrying a hairbrush.
That night Link couldn't sleep, he felt restless, like something was wrong. It was at least a little past mid-night, but he still couldn't go to sleep.

"What's wrong?" he asked her in the same quiet voice.
"I can... feel something. Something isn't right. Some black-magic is taking place over towards that cliff behind those trees."
Link froze with shock, that was the Lost Woods.
"Are you sure it's coming from over there?"
"Yes I'm sure! Why wouldn't I be?"
"Never mind...."
"I'm going to go check it out!"
"Not without me your not!"
"Not without me either!" Both Link and Zelda looked at Navi who had flown down during their conversation. "I'm coming with you too!"
Navi flew and then landed on top of Zelda's head, and Link looked at Navi with shock.
"Why did you go on her head and not mine?"
"Because her hair is soft and velvety!"
"And mine isn't?"
"Your hairs usually dirty!"
Link sighed and then signaled for Zelda to follow him. It was useless trying to argue with his fairy, she always won the fights.

It seemed like she had barely gotten in his house when she came back out, this time she was wearing a blue tunic, it so dark it was almost black. She still put her circlet on with Navi sitting on its brim. She had also brought Link all of his weapons, and he was grateful for that. Once she was back down Link took his stuff and then put them in their usual places. He took her hand and led her over to the entrance of the Lost Woods.
"Zelda, are you sure you want to wear such a dark color? I might not be able to see you in this darkness."
"Alright, just a second."
Pointing down at her tunic she whispered, "I don't like this stupid color, so let a white one be a bit better." Instantly her tunic changed into a white one, and even her boots turned white.
"That better?" she asked him sarcastically.
"I thought spells are supposed to rime?"
"I don't know why people think that, why do they think that?"
"Never mind, let's go!"
She nodded and then followed him into the entrance of the Lost Woods; Navi zipped in front of them, meaning to be their light.
"Link!"
"What is it Zelda?"
"I can tell which was to go, I can sense which was feels the most evil!"
"Alright."
Letting Zelda take the lead, he followed her through different tunnels and pathways. And after a while, he realized that she was leading them to the place where he and Saria would spend the day at. The place where Saria would sit on the old playing her Ocarina, in front of some old ruined stairs that would lead up to somewhere unknown. He was hoping that Zelda would take a turn and lead them away from that certain place, she just on going in the correct places.
Eventually they got there, it looked the same, but Link could feel that something was terribly wrong. He knew that Zelda and Navi could feel it too; all of their eyes were upon the broken stairs behind the stump. He walked closer, then pulled out his Ocarina and played Saria's Song. Zelda didn't say anything, but walked up to where she was right underneath the stairs.
He heard Saria answer, and felt grateful, but when she spoke to him, he felt worried for her with a sickening heart ach.
"Link," Saria cried out from his Ocarina, "please help me, the spirits of the forest called me to the place where we always play at, and told me go into the place where the stairs are. But there are too many monsters, please help me! Please!"
She was cut off before he could say anything, and then he looked up at the stairs, putting his Ocarina back. It began to rain, cold and hard. He had to help her, but how could he get up there?
"Forest Temple."
Link looked at Zelda, who was looking up at the stairs.
"What do you mean by 'Forest Temple,' what is it?"
"Forest Temple is the temple where it keeps the life of living thing plants in balance. If knocked off balance, then it could make all of the crops that Hyrule has wither and die. That," she told him as she pointed to the stairs. "Is the Forest Temple, I can hear the Spirits of the forest calling for help. I can get up there, but I don't know about you." She turned around, her hair wet but it still seemed soft and clean. Navi was standing under her, shivering from the cold.
"You can get up there? How?"
"I can teleport since there isn't anything in my path, when I'm up there, I'll try and find some way to get you up."
He looked at her, and saw the wisdom in her eyes. She wasn't scared, but she wasn't sure about where she was going to go either, he saw the true part of her, the part that people never see. It was her soul, burning with stubbornness and will. He was seeing inside her.
He nodded, and she ran over next to him, she seemed to switch places, moving to different spots and then checking back at the stairs. Navi flew back to Link, and finally she found a certain spot that seemed to suit her and then cried out in the booming thunder, "Let me go across the wind and fly like a bird!"
Her feet lifted off of the ground, and for a moment Link thought she was going to fly, but then her body turned into a white light, then it became something like a thin string and disappeared. She reappeared at the top of the stairs, and then began searching for something to pull Link up with. Then, she pointed over to some vines nearby the stairs, she yelled out something, but he couldn't hear what she was saying. She kept on pointing the vines, and then Navi flew over next to them, going up and down them. He figured that Navi and Zelda were suggesting that he climb up the vines, so he walked over to them and started climbing.
It was hard work, because the rain had seemed to make them slippery, when he was close enough to the stairs, Zelda held her hand out to him, and he reached up, making sure to keep a good grip on the vines. Grapping her hand Zelda began to try and help pull Link up, but it was slow; he and his weapons were proving to be too heavy for her. Her arm glowed with magic, and she yanked Link up with surprising strength. It was so strong than he landed right on top of her, and he instantly jumped off of her.
"Sorry!" He yelled at her, glad that it was dark so she couldn't his blushing face. She nodded and then got up, and then she ran into the entrance of what she had called the Forest Temple. Link followed her, not sure of where he was going, but still feeling his courage inside of him, pushing him to go on.
