Chapter 1 8 years later Link is now 10

Link sits up gasping from a horrible dream; a small blonde girl on a white horse is being chased by an evil red haired man on a black horse. She is always running from him and Link is there but he can't do anything to stop it because after all he is only a kid. Link sighs as he lies back down in his bed and throws and arm across his face attempting to find sleep again.

But as always after the dream with the horse comes those flashes of deep fiery red eyes and that vague sense of knowing but not remembering. Link throws his hand off his face and sits up, when a bright bouncing ball of light flies into his tree house. Ringing like mad the ball bounces around until Link finally growls at the annoying noise and throws a pillow at it.

The ball of light is caught by the pillow and it falls to the ground underneath it. As the anger haze wears off Link realizes what he has done and goes over to pick up the pillow. Setting the soft weapon aside he scoops his hand under the ball of light and brings it up to eye level and gasps.

Lying in his hand is a tiny replica of a woman; the little thing has dark blue hair in a braid that hangs past her feet and a silver flowing gown that clings to her small white body her little white feet are pointed and so is her nose. Her features are so delicate but so beautiful. And as she awakens her lovely deep violet eyes flutter open.

Link smiles down at the little woman and holds out a finger to help her stand. But she shrugs it away and simply snaps out a pair of thin silky silver wings so that she can hover just above Link's hand. As she hovers there is a slight tinkling noise and Link looks down to what he missed on one ankle is a silver circlet and connected to that by what would be a heavy silver chain for her are 13 bells that trail behind her longer than her blue braid.

Link runs a finger along the bells making them clink. "Why do you wear these?" Link asks and the small woman sighs "It is the curse of the Fairies to wear bells until they are set free by their masters. I have never had a master so I wear my bells, but you are my master now Link and I bring a message from the Deku Tree he wants to see you right away."

Link falls back stunned "A fairy for me……but I…..weren't you supposed to come to me when I was a baby?" The fairy smiles riley and cocks her head "No I wasn't now can we please go?" she says as she begins to bounce around in the air again tinkling her little bells. Link sighs "At least tell me your name…." he asks pleadingly.

The little fairy stops bouncing in the air and puts one hand on her hip and the other to her chest in a dramatic gesture. "My name is Navinasura Sephineth Fallenor….." The fairy pauses and looks over at Link's confused black face. "But you can call me Navi." She says smiling and sticking out her hand. Link reaches out with a finger and Navi and him shake on their new partnership.

Navi flutters up to Link's head and lies down in his hair, her braid and bells going strait back under his hat and her feet kicking back and forth in the air Navi rests her head and her arms her big violet eyes starring strait ahead. Fluttering her wings so that she floats a little she leans forward too far to keep her balance, that is if she didn't have wings and looks Link in the eye. "Well are we going?" she asks her little upside down face slowly moving out of Link's line of vision.

Link chuckles and looks up at his bangs were he catches just the slightest hint of white and silver. "Make your self right at home." Link says Navi chirps from on top of his head "I will" chuckling some more at his very opinionated fairy friend Link exits his house and heads to the entrance to the Deku Tree's grove where he runs in to none other then 'The Great' Mido himself.

As Link tries to get around Mido he keeps on blocking his path. Finally Link throws out his hands in defeat and yells at him "What do you want Mido" Link asks with the venom of his anger tingeing his words with hate. Mido sneers "Fairy-less boys aren't allowed to see the great Deku Tree so beat it."

At hearing this Navi peaks out her little head from its nest in Link's sun gold hair "What do you mean Fairy-less, what am I chopped liver…." As Navi goes on she gets angrier and her little wings flutter lifting her off Link's head until Mido has a very angry fairy floating right in front of his face. "I'm one of the best fairies and you have the nerve to insult Link like that. Link is twice the man you will ever be now let us through."

Navi stands in air right in front of Mido fuming. While Link stands off to the side very embarrassed at having a woman no more than 5 inches tall defending him, but Mido after he gets over his shock at the fairy smirks evilly "Well even if he does have a fairy no one is allowed in until they show me a sword and shield."

Navi huffs at Mido and is just about to go into another rant when Link scoops her up with a hand and places her back on top of his head. "Fine Mido, but no changing your rules when I get back with a sword and shield." Link says sneering once more at the annoying boy before walking off.

As he walks away Navi hovers holding onto his bangs again so she can look him in the eyes without loosing her perch. "What was that for, I was about to give him another piece of my mind." She says growling ferally and Link thinking shaking his head would be a bad idea just roles his eyes at her. "Look Navi you may be pretty powerful among the fairies but here in the forest Mido is the boss and its best just to find ways around him or do what he says no matter how much it aggravates you" Link says gritting his teeth on the last bit.

Navi cocks her head at Link and the motion pulls her braid free so the blue rope like thing swings down and tickles Link's nose. Link laughs and raises up a hand to lift the braid away from his nose. Navi still confused at his logic smiles at the young hero's laughter and decides to leave well enough alone. Pulling her self back up to her perch she pulls her braid up as well and rests her head back on her hands watching as they enter the store.

"40 rupees for a shield!!!!!" Link yells out as he speaks to the shop owner and Navi perks up. Looking at the very underwhelming wooden deku shield Navi snorts. As Link argues with the man she lifts off his head and flits into the back room. It takes all her might and quiet a bit of struggling but the little fairy girl manages to lift a shield out the window of the store.

Flying back around she runs right into Link's nose as he storms out of the store. The blow flings her into the dust at his feet and Link stunned for a moment bends down quickly to pick up his tiny friend. Navi lies in his hand a little dizzy and a little dirty but no worse for the wear. "You left my hat?" Link asks but than waves it off as he stands up still carrying Navi he begins to rant "Can you believe that shop keeper he is charging 40 rupees for that tiny shield and he doesn't even have swords in stock……." Link whines and continues to rant.

Meanwhile Navi has come to her senses and stands in his hand yelling at him "Link I……Link would you…..LINK!" Finally sick of being ignored Navi flies up and kicks Link in the nose. Now a fairy kick doesn't hurt at all but it did get the young boys attention. "Yes Navi?" he asks and the little fairy smiles "Follow me" she says simply and she is off flying fast as Link struggles to keep up.

Finally Link finds himself behind the store and there it is the deku shield Navi snuck out of the storage room. "Navi you did this?" Link asks stunned at his little fairy and she nods vigorously than her work done she flits back up to his head and lies back down kicking her feet in the air. Link smiles "Thanks…." He says as he picks up the shield and straps it to his back. "Now all we have to do is find a sword….how about we take a quick rest and swim at the pool in the lost woods?" Link asks hopefully looking up and Navi jingles her bells in answer cause she doesn't feel like talking.

Smiling at her antics Link takes off for the lost woods and a nice out of the way bathing spot. As they walk Link thinks of something "Navi if we get separated in the woods I'll just whistle for you okay." Link says and Navi says a quick tired okay. As Link comes to the entrance though he gets the strangest feeling of eyes watching him. Turning around he doesn't see anything and so he enters the woods with a shrug. As the bushes settle at his passing through them another figure drops to the ground in front of the entrance to the woods.

The lithe blue clothed figure peers into the darkness skeptically and brushes a piece of stray silvery blond hair from his eyes as he tries to decide whether to enter or not. Leaning further into the brush he blinks his blood red eyes and after one more second of thought plunges right into the woods following the light path left by the little blond boy.
