Kikyo's Killer's note: The holidays have arrived! This is my Christmas present to you, my readers. It's a new chapter! Yay! So Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Also, if you don't celebrate Christmas, Happy whatever!

Link and Zack galloped straight to Romani Ranch. On the way there Zack was wondering when would be a good time to tell Link that he was actually Zelda. He kept thinking about the shock looks on their faces when they find out who she really was, but the one thing she looked forward to the most was being in Link's arms. Of course Link would be shock and maybe a little mad, but then feel stupid about not realizing it sooner. Along with acting like a total idiot at times. Zack started to laugh at the thought.

Link looked at Zack strangely. "Zack are you okay?"

"Um… Link, before we go into the ranch there's something I need to tell both you and Tatl." Zack said nervously.

Link looked at Zack questionly. "What is it?"

Epona stopped and both of them jumped off. "Well, it's about your girlfriend, Zelda." Link gave him a scared look. "King Hyrule got a ransom note saying she was kidnapped."

"Oh my gods, Zelda! Is that really you?!" Link asked.

Zelda nod yes. "Sorry about deceiving you. I had to keep my identity secret so you wouldn't send me back home."

Tatl looked at them confused. "What's going on? Didn't you just say Zelda was kidnapped?"

Navi sighed. "Zelda did this before. She wrote a note that said that she was kidnapped so she could be with Link. That was before King Hyrule allowed her to date him."

"So, Zack is actually Zelda?" Link nod yes. "Holy crap! You mean I called Princess Zelda weird! Please forgive me, princess!"

"Don't worry about it, Tatl. It was actually nice to be treated like a regular person than a princess." Zelda told reassured her.

Tatl gave a sigh of relieve. "Are you sure?"

Zelda nod yes. "I guess I should get out of my Sheikah outfit." Zelda raised her hand and light formed around her. When the light cleared Zelda had long blonde hair and was in her dress. "That's better."

"Um… Zelda…" Tatl hold her a piece of paper and pen.

"I thought as much." Zelda took the piece of paper and signed her name. "There you go."

"Th-thanks." Tatl all of a sudden grew nervous.

"Tatl, don't be nervous around me. Just pretend I'm Zack!" Zelda told her.

"But-!" Tatl thought for minute. "Can I call you Zel?"

Zelda shrugged. "We're friends aren't we?"

Tatl smiled. "Wait until my brother hears that I'm friends with Princess Zelda!"

"Hey, what about me?!" Link asked.

"Please, so you saved this town and the kingdom of Hyrule. You're not as special as Princess Zelda!"

"Poor Link, that must hurt." Navi said.

Link put his head down. "Only my pride."

Zelda looked up at the sky. "It's getting late; we should go to Romani Ranch tomorrow morning."

Everyone nod in agreement and they rode to Anju's inn. Back in Romani Ranch everyone was waiting patiently for Link and Tatl to come back from their journey. Before Collette was sent into the Chamber of Sages she told her friends about Zelda dressing up like a boy and helping Link save the other maidens. They all knew very well how oblivious Link was, so the part of him not knowing who is girlfriend was didn't shock them as much as Zelda helping him. Romani's heart felt heavy when she heard that. She had a crush on Link since he saved her cows from "aliens". So of course it hurt when she found out how much the two loved each other.

The night she found out that Zelda and Link were serious she didn't eat or sleep. She stayed up all night shooting balloons with Zelda's face on them. The next night she wrote slightly threatening notes to the pair. By then her friends were getting worried about her, but Cremia assured them that all Romani had to do was let out her anger. By the fourth night Romani was back to her old-self. She was eating and sleeping, it was like she never found out that Link and Zelda were a couple, but just in case they tried not to mention either of their names.

"Where could Link and Zelda be?!" Romani asked herself as he looked outside the window.

It was the same night that Link and Zelda were staying in the Stop Pot inn. "Romani, I have some good news from Anju." Cremia told her younger sister.

"What is it?! Is it about Link?!" Romani asked excitedly.

Cremia nod. "Yes, it seems that their staying in the inn and will come over tomorrow."

Romani jumped up. "I have to tell the boys!"

"They're already asleep. The poor dears haven't gotten much sleep they've been so worried about Tatl."

"I'm just so glad that Link is okay! I can't wait to hear all about his adventure!" Romani squealed.

"Don't get too excited. You need to get some sleep so you'll have enough energy tomorrow." Cremia walked to the stairs, but stopped about half way down. "Romani, before you go to bed could you feed the cows?"

Romani sighed frustration. "Fine, I'll feed the damn cows!"

Romani jumped off of the bed and walked to the stables carrying a couple of stacks of hay. She mumbled about how unfair it was that she had to feed the cows while her lazy sister went to bed, which she did every night. It's not that she didn't like feeding the three cows; it was just that she didn't like her sister bossing her. She gave each cow a stack of hay and scratched them behind their ears before going back to the house. While she was going to her house she heard a noise.

She looked behind. "Is anyone there?!"

No answer. Romani all of a sudden had a hand covering her mouth and arms around her chest. She tried to scream, but it was muffled by the hand. "Don't worry little girl, I won't hurt you… yet."

Romani bit down onto the man's hand and gave a cry for help. "Cremia if I get kidnapped I'll kill you!" Okay, maybe that wasn't exactly a cry for help, but it did get some attention because there was a light in her house.

The man fumed with anger. "Will you shut-up?!" He brought down his hand onto Romani's shoulder. Romani fell into the man's arms unconscious. "She has to be the most stubborn of the five."

The door opened and Cremia came out with a lamp. "Romani, are you there?" She looked around and found no one. "Romani, this isn't funny! Now get inside before you get sick!" Cremia waited for a reply, but didn't get one. She gave a frustrated sigh. "She probably went to the inn to be with Link."

There was a knock on the door around 8:00 am. "Link, could you get the door?" Tatl asked.

"No, Navi, I don't want to feed the huge fish." Link rolled over and pulled up the covers.

There was another knock on the door. All the girls grew angry. "GET THE DAMN DOOR, Link!" The all demanded at the same time.

Link jumped up and ran to the door. "Hello, may I help you?"

"I'm sorry to wake you." Anju bowed. "But have you seen Romani?"

Link shook his head. "No, we were going to visit her when we woke up. Why?"

Anju's face grew pale. "Are you sure she isn't with you?!"

"What happened? Is Romani okay?!" Link asked quickly.

Anju gasped. "She's gone…" Anju said emotionlessly

Link grabbed Anju's shoulders. "Who's gone?! What happened, Anju?!"

"Romani… has been kidnapped." Anju answered shocked.

To be continued…

Kikyo's Killer's note: Hmmm… why did Romani get kidnapped? I know why! But I'm not telling you. You'll have to review to get the answer! #bursts into maniacal laughter#

To Devil Seifer: I'm updating the next day, but it may take longer if I get writer's block, which I seem to get a lot.

To Nysoku: I know. I even had this really dark idea that I'm not going to do because it's too dark. Way too dark.

To FFlove190: As much as I would like the post card of me trembling in fear, I can't refuse something that involves the torture of jolly old St. Nick. #to Santa# That's what you get for not kidnapping Vincent Valentine and not giving him to me as a Christmas present!
