And thus the confused girl said: Shouldn't we begin?

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Link opened his eyes and yawned. He looked to his right, seeing that Kaze had somehow vanished. "Wha!" he exclaimed in dismay and sat up, looking to the left. No Kaze. "Kaze?" Link called.

"Ever try looking behind you?" Kaze murmured sleepily.

Link blinked and looked behind him where he saw the thief sitting still half asleep. "You scared me. Sheez, I thought you were gone!" Link said, relieved.

Kaze looked at Link with his smirk. "Leave you behind? For what reason would I leave you behind?" he asked.

Link gave a sheepish smile. "I have no clue," he answered honestly.

Kaze snorted and looked at the sky.

"Hey! You still haven't answered me the other two questions!" Link remembered looking at Kaze.

"Well firstly... Maybe Talon left before we got here," Kaze said, polishing his blade.

Link frowned. "How do you know for sure?" he asked.

"Simple, because I felt it. He's not there anymore, and I have no clue where he went," Kaze shrugged.

"We could've asked Princess Ruto or King Zora," Link said with a sigh.

Kaze sweatdropped. "Yeah, I know," he muttered.

Suddenly Link remembered the strange thing that happened in Zora's Fountain. "Kaze?" he asked, looking at the thief somewhat suspiciously.

Kaze looked back. "What's up?"

"How do you know that Mystus stole the Water Stone?"

Kaze opened his mouth to answer but shut it again, rubbing his hands over his face. "Listen Link, I don't know how I know, I just... know. If I concentrate on one spot, I can see in the past; I can only see images but still enough to know something for sure..." he murmured, his eyes downcast.

Link just stared at him, waiting for him to finish.

"But this power, it takes his toll on me. If I should use it for more than ten minutes, it'll cost me my life," he explained as he looked back up at his friend.

Link blinked. "You mean that? How do you know for sure?" he inquired quickly.

"I tried it once for almost ten minutes, but..." Kaze said, then paused with a sigh. "But that was a fatal mistake on my part. I passed out and was unconscious for at least a week. Some of them thought I would'nt make it."

"Who's 'they'?" Link asked.

"My family, the Gerudos," Kaze smirked.

"Oh, of course," Link said, shaking his head. "Completely slipped my mind."

"Anyway, let's get going," Kaze suggested as he stood.

"Yep," Link agreed and grabbed his ocarina, playing Epona's Song.

Kaze smirked and put his fingers against his lips, giving a loud, sharp whistle.

Akumu and Epona both galloped towards them, whinnying in delight to see their masters again.

The young thief smiled and hugged Akumu. "Hey there, pal. You have a good time?" he asked affectionately.

Akumu whinnied and sniffed at Kaze's hair.

Link smiled and turned his gaze on his mare who snorted and walks over to Link, nuzzling against his hand. "Hey there, beauty," Link said gently, stroking Epona's muzzle.

"Wait!" an all too familiar voice suddenly chirped.

Link and Kaze looked at each other in fear. 'Anyone but her,' they both thought.

"Wait! You said you were looking for some man, right?" Princess Ruto asked, stopping next to Link and Kaze.

Kaze cocked an eyebrow at the young princess. "Are you allowed to be out?" he asked.

"I am allowed everything!" she huffed. "After all, I'm a princess."

Link sighed. "You said something about the man we are looking for," he reminded the fish princess.

"Yes, I heard him muttering something about going to Lake Hylia!" she exclaimed.

Link and Kaze looked at each other, mounting their steeds. "Lake Hylia it is, then," they said in unison.

"You two will come back, won't you?" Princess Ruto pleaded.

Kaze fixed his gaze on the sky, not wanting to answer, for he knew better than that.

Link looked at Kaze and, seeing that he wasn't about to answer, set his gaze on Princess Ruto. "Eventually," he said and started to ride away with Kaze behind him.

"Bye bye! 'Til then! I will be waiting for you, my fiance!" the young Zoran princess called.

Link and Kaze both sighed and galloped away to Lake Hylia.

&#&#&#&#&#&#&#

Kaze smirked and looked at the huge fence. "Care for a jump?" he asked Akumu who was walking backwards to gain speed for the jump.

Epona whinnied from the other side. "Yo, Kaze! Come on!" Link shouted, waving his hand in beckon.

"Coming!" Kaze yelled as Akumu started to gallop towards the fence and gracefully jumped over it, landing near Epona with a snort of self-satisfaction.

"Cool jump there, Kaze," Link complimented as he rode forward to Lake Hylia.

"You should say that to Akumu, not to me," Kaze pointed out, petting his stallion lovingly and following Link and Epona.

They finally reached the Lake and both dismounted, gazing upon the crystalline waters in awe.

"It's just as beautiful as always," Link breathed.

"Yeah," Kaze replied, looking at the lake, then noticed a Zora running over to them and screaming for help.

"Help me! Please help me! My boyfriend is badly injured after taking a closer look at the Water Temple!" the Zoran girl cried out, looking at them with pleading cerulean eyes. "You must help us, please! You are Link, correct?"

Link merely nodded at her. "I am Link, yes. What is it you want me to do?" he asked.

"Go inside the Water Temple and kill the thing that hurt my friend!" she cried.

Kaze narrowed his eyes and gave a look of determination. "Let's go, Link," he said, his voice one of resolve.

"But... you can't swim, and we need Zora tunics!" Link cried out. "And they have to be Zoran tunics of our size!"

"Then I just need to start swimming, right? And as for the Zora tunics..." he said looking at the Zoran girl. "Would you please go to your boyfriend? We shall do our best to kill this thing that has attacked him," he said firmly.

The Zoran girl nodded and ran back to her boyfriend who was lying on the shore.

"We still have no Zora tunics!" Link said to Kaze.

Kaze gave a smug smirk. "Am I called a thief for nothing?" he replied, drawing out two zora tunics from his pack.

Link blinked in confusion. "The Zoran girl at the shop snagged them back, right?" he asked, making sure what he remembered wasn't false.

Kaze shrugged. "Let's just say I sneaked back in when you were dreaming... I awakened around nighttime and really couldn't sleep anymore, so I decided to steal a pair of Zora tunics, thinking they would maybe come in handy. And, oi, I was right!" he laughed, smirking.

Link slapped his forehead with a sigh, but nonetheless grabbed the Zora tunic and put it on. "Let's go then," he stated, walking over to the shore of Lake Hylia.

Kaze stared after him and finally sighed, pulling on his tunic too and thinking about the pendant. 'He was telling the truth, then... because she was the one carrying that pendant... Hieke...' he thought sorrowfully. He looked up from his thoughts and followed Link to Lake Hylia.

"So, up for it?" Link asked worriedly.

Kaze looked at the water and took a deep breath before finally walking in until he was far enough to swim. "I am ready. How about you?" he asked Link who nodded and followed him.

Kaze took another deep breath and dove in the water, heading for the Water Temple.

Link looked back one more time and finally dove in as well, following the black-haired thief.
