Flashbacks
Link remembered some of the things he had done with Aryll in the past, like the time he tried to see if she was flammable. She was.
There was also that time he used her to see how long it would take for an object to fall from Outset Island's Watchtower to the ocean….
(Flashback….)
Link sat in the watchtower, observing his younger sister gazing at the birds with her telescope.
"Hey Aryll!" he said.
"Yes big brother?"
"I dare you to climb up on the ledge of the tower," He said, nodding to it.
"…But…why…?"
"Nevermind why. So…. Will you do it?"
Aryll thought for a moment.
"I guess so…."
"Good!"
Aryll climbed onto the ledge and stood there.
"What do I do now?"
"Nothing…. Just look forward, not behind you, ok?"
"Um, ok…."
Aryll followed her brother's instructions.
Link slowly crept up behind Aryll, and shoved her off the edge.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" Aryll screamed.
Link began to count until he heard Aryll hit the water.
"About three seconds!"
There was also that time when he was age eight and she was just one, and he threw her off Outset Island's Summit to see if she could fly….
"Come here…. Here baby…." Link said quietly as he walked towards his baby sister.
The two of them were atop Outset Island's summit. Link had cleverly told his grandmother that he was just taking Aryll to the summit to play, while he was really about to conduct his latest experiment….
"Here, baby baby…. There we go!" He cooed as he lifted Aryll.
Link carried the baby to the edge of the cliff.
"One…."
Aryll giggled.
"Two…."
He took a deep breath.
"FLY, BABY, FLY!"
Link threw Aryll.
With a scream, Aryll sailed through the air and began to plummet into the water. She landed with a splash.
"Oops…. I guess babies can't fly after all…." Link said.
"LINK!" his grandmother screamed.
Oh, and not to mention the time the time that he was ten, and she was three, and he tied her to a rope, and hung her over the summit to see how many times she would swing in fifteen seconds.
"Brother, I don't think this is a good idea…." Aryll said as she was slowly being lowered further down the cliff.
"Oh, you'll be fine. Don't be such a baby!" Link snorted.
Aryll was soon lowered far enough.
"Ready?" Link called.
"No." Aryll said plainly.
"NOW!"
Link began to swing the rope back and forth, back and forth….
"One…two…three…four…five…"
The rope began to slip from Link's grasp.
"Seven…eight…nine…ten…ele-!"
The rope slipped from his grasp, and Aryll fell towards the water, screaming.
SPLASH!
"LINK!" his grandmother called.
And the time when Aryll was only two months old, and he dropped her out the window to see if the squirrels would take her away and accept her as one of their own….
"Hold the baby gently now…. That's it." Link's grandmother said, setting Aryll in his arms.
Then she went off to talk to the neighbors, who were at the house during that time.
Link looked around. No one was looking! He opened the window, and dropped Aryll out of it. Then he crouched down and stared….
No squirrels yet. Maybe they wouldn't accept her as one of their own…. Maybe they would eat her instead…. He thought. Or maybe they will sacrifice her to the squirrel god!
"Where's the baby?" one of the neighbors asked.
It was then that he realized that Aryll was much more than his adoring little sister…. She was his guinea pig! And he felt more compelled than ever to shove (beep) up Ganondorf's ass, and get her back!
