Some would call him a legendary hero. Others, jealous of his triumphs against evil's reign on Hyrule, would simply call him a disgusting peasant, unworthy of the Princess's attention.
To him, he didn't care what he was named. The things he did were from the goodness of his heart, he never asked for any type of payment in return for his services. How could he when the people he assisted were no more better off than he.
He wore a green tunic, torn and battered from numerous fights, a leather belt, his green forest-boy cap and his trusty weapons.
"Link? LINK, WAKE UP." shouted Saria.
"Mmm..Cucco...pink.." he mumbled, rolling back over in his sleep.
The young girl took this as a sign to pounce on him. She begun to shake him fiercely. "You get up now, mister!" She said sternly, acting asthough she were his mother.
Link immediately awoke and pushed her off of him. "Lemmeh go. Who do you think you are barging into MY home?" He rubbed his eyes and looked out the window. "And BEFORE dawn. What's with you?" He held his head in his hands. "I shouldn't have gone out boozing last night"
Saria stood on a rug, her hands on her hips as she tapped her toe in annoyance. "You better go thank Mr.Dariuna for being available last night. You were so drunk he had to pick you up and walk you home. You could have caused an accident with Epona, Link! You're so irresponsible!" Link chuckled. "Yes, yes, well..." He stretched his arms and stood up, ruffling his blonde hair.
"Oh...you..!" Saria said, as she stormed out, leaving Link by himself. She stood on his balcony and as he came out, she instantly attacked him with questions. "Why were you out getting drunk? You're supposed to be a rolemodel! What is WITH you?" Link sighed and sat on the railing. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you." "Try me"
He sighed once more and looked away. "Well, last night, I was in town-" "Yes, yes! We already KNOW that. Get on with it, PLEASE. I don't have all year, Mr. Hero." Saria snapped. Obviously in a dark mood.
"-...Well, I was in town and-"
"WILL
YOU PLEASE GET ON WITH IT?" Saria shouted, getting upset. She seemed
unreasonably short tempered today, though Link couldn't figure out why.
"Do you want me to tell you or not?" Link grunted, angrily.
"Of course but-"
"Then stop interrupting. Or I'll just have to put a dirty sock in your mouth...My dirty sock." Link said, chuckling lightly.
Saria winced but stayed quiet.
"So I was in town, looking for a nice place to buy some spices for dinner when I was called to the--" He paused as Mido shouted from afar. "Saria..LINK? WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING TOGETHER, before DAWN? Saria get down here at once!" Saria frowned as her eyebrows creased.
"Okay. Link, you can finish your story later." She began to climb down the ladder to his balcony. "And try not to get so drunk next time, Okay?" She giggled and jumped off the ladder and ran away to play in the Lost Woods.
Link yawned and walked back into his room. It would be a few more hours before anyone with sanity would be awake.
