Thanks to:
Linkboy: Yup, I couldn't come up with any other name so I went with that. What happens after Zelda's treated? You'll find out soon.
Tsukasa the mysterious mage: I hope everything will be okay, too. Wait I'm the author so I already know @_@
Frank: Thanks a whole bunch!

In the Oracle's hut,
"Is she going to die?" Link asked looking down at Zelda's very pale face.
"If we do not give her the medicine then yes she will die," the Oracle answered.
"Then what are you waiting for?" Link asked.
"I do not have the medicine she needs," the Oracle replied.
"Then what are were going to do?" Link asked losing hope.
"You and Aeris needs to go find the ingredients," the Oracle answered. "You need to find a leaf from the Alleeias tree, a few strands of grass from the Pelenakia fields, and a Zera flower."
"Where do I find these items?" Link asked.
"Aeris knows where to find them," the Oracle said. "She will go with you."
Aeris nodded and she walked out of the hut.
Link looked down at Zelda and sighed.
"I'll get what you need to cure you, princess," he whispered.
"Link," the Oracle said. "Ganondorf knows what is going on. He knows that you and Aeris are about the get the ingredients for Zelda's cure. He has already sent his people to all three areas so ambush you."
"I'm surprised he didn't have his goons just destroy all the ingredients," Link replied.
"Ah, he could have, yes, but," the Oracle began to explain. "Then he knew that you would have lost all hope and not even show up. He is taking a risk by drawing you to his trap. He thinks that you and Aeris are not strong enough for his armies. These monsters are stronger than the ones you have encountered before. Beware, Link. Do not underestimate Ganondorf's power. And remember, Zelda only has forty-eight hours left to live."
Link looked at him for a moment and when he saw that the Oracle had nothing else to say, he left the hut.
When he got outside, Aeris was holding the reins of two horses.
One horse was chocolate color with a black hair and the other was dark chocolate color, but with white hair.
"What's their names?" Link asked.
"This one," she pointed to the chocolate one, "is Rinoa, the other is Storm."
(A/N: Yeah, yeah I used another Final Fantasy name and an X-Men name.)
"You will ride Storm," she said. "and I will ride Rinoa."
Link nodded and mounted himself on Storm.
"Follow me," Aeris said and began riding out of the village followed by Link.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
First they would get a leaf from the Alleeias tree.
The Alleeias trees stood five miles west of Burmecia.
As they rode through the wood to the Alleeias trees, Link noticed that the green leafed trees were getting more orange and red as the rode through. It was like they were riding through the Spring filled wood to the Autumn filled wood.
The closer and closer they got, the more evil Link could sense. He knew that they were getting close to where Ganondorf's minions were hiding.
Link took out his bow....he could sense an enemy hiding in the trees.
"Aeris, watch out!" Link called when he saw a Stalfos monster jump from the trees.
Link put away his bow and drew his sword. Arrows would not work on the skeleton creatures.
At that moment, more Stalfos monsters jumped out of the trees. There were about ten of them.
Link and Aeris jumped from their horses and Aeris drew her sword too.
One monster swung his sword down towards Aeris, but she swung her sword up and blocked its attack. Another Stalfos saw this and made an attempt to get her from behind, but Link stabbed his sword through its bony body and twisted it around causing the Stalfos to crumble into pieces.
Aeris pushed forward and actually knocked the creature backwards. Link was amazed at her strength. But there was no time really to be amazed. Three more Stalfos monsters lunged at Link, but he used his Triforce power and created some sort of kinetic energy to knock them all backwards. He then sent an energy wave at the three and they too crumbled into pieces.
Four of them were down, but there was still six more.
The Oracle was right, these monsters were stronger and faster than the ones he was used too. He should have been able to take them all down by himself by now. But that did not happen.
Six....six was too many. These monsters were tough. Very tough and they were wasting precious time.
Aeris gasped from surprise when she suddenly felt Link's strong arm wrap around her waist and found herself being pulled close, very close, to him. She kind of liked it.
He said nothing and reached into his belt. Aeris saw him grab an orange on clear crystal. He then slammed the crystal hard against the ground. Aeris' eyes widened and her jaw dropped when a dome of flame encircled them and then quickly spread out. The flame hit the remaining six Stalfos monsters. Their bones turned brown and then crumbled into dust.
"What was that?" Aeris asked in amazement.
"Din's Fire," he answered. "Only those with pure hearts can use them."
"Do you think there are anymore creatures?" she asked.
"Not here," he answered looking around. "But I'm sure we will see some more of Ganondorf's minions before the day is over."
"Who exactly is this Ganondorf?" she asked.
"I'll tell you later," he said. "The Oracle said we only have forty-eight hours to save Zelda."
She said nothing else and simply nodded. She knew he was right. Time was already wasted because of Ganondorf and she did not want to waste anymore time with questions.
The two got back on their horses and continued on into the wood.
In just a few minutes, the two found some Alleeias trees.
Link walked up to one, pulled out his small dagger, and clipped a few leaves from it. He put it in his pouch and mounted his horse.
"Now we will get the strands of grass from the Pelenakia fields," Aeris said. "It's east of Burmecia so we will give the Oracle the leaves and continue our journey."
As they rode back to the village, Link became curious about the names of the horses they were riding.
"So how did you pick their names?" he asked.
"Storm is as fast as the winds of a storm," she answered. "Rinoa is a graceful name and this horse is graceful therefor I named her Rinoa."
"Nice," he said.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
The two rode on into the village and gave the Oracle the leaves from the Alleeias tree. The Oracle smiled when he saw Aeris and Link return safely, but there was still two more ingredients left to go.
After that, they continued on to Pelenakia fields.
It did not take long to get there. Pelenakia fields was a beautiful place. It had many green trees, long green grass, and lots of flowers.
"Does the Zera flower grow here?" Link asked.
"No, unfortunately," Aeris answered.
He sighed and nodded slowly. Then he sensed more danger.
"ReDeads..." he muttered.
"What?" Aeris asked.
"Close your eyes!" Link said.
Aeris did as he said and it was as if demons from hell itself were popping out of the ground when the ReDeads came up.
Link jumped off his horse to face the demons.
There were five of them this time, but they did not move slow like normal ones, these devil spawns from hell were fast.
One had its eyes on Aeris. It moved quickly at her and since her eyes were closed, she did not see it.
Link saw it, though. He pulled out a Light Arrow and shot it. The arrow did not kill it, but it stunned it for only a few seconds.
"Aeris, now!" Link called.
Aeris opened her eyes and saw the ReDead leering over her. She gasped and pulled out her sword. She then stabbed it in the gut and killed it.
Before Link knew it, two ReDeads jumped on top of him. He could immediately feel his life being sucked right out of him. He winced in agony and pain. The ReDead's touch was always painful, but these creatures were agonizing. He looked up and saw two also attacking Aeris. He gritted his teeth together and closed his eyes tightly. His body gave a radiant glow and the ReDeads quickly let go. It was as if Link's body was too painful to touch. He drew his sword and stabbed both creatures. After they were dead, he looked back at Aeris and saw her on he knees with an exhausted look on her face. He ran to her aid and killed the two demons attacking her.
"Aeris, are you okay?" Link asked.
Aeris nodded slowly. "Just tired," she said. "Those creatures drained my energy. I'll be fine. Go cut some strands of grass."
He put away his sword and pulled out his small dagger again and cut several strands.
"One more, Zelda, one more," he whispered.
Aeris pulled herself on her horse and let out a long soft sigh.
"The Zera flower grows north-west from where we are now," she said. "We can go that way now, or we can take the grass to the Oracle and travel north from there."
"Let's take it to the Oracle first," he said.
"Very well," she said.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
"Very good, Link," the Oracle said as he gave medicine to Aeris for energy. "Though you have encountered battles, you are still making good time, but I must warn you. The creatures you will meet when you go get the Zera flower are much more dangerous. They are very, very strong and wield powerful swords."
"I'm not afraid," Link replied looking at Zelda. "I won't let her die."
The Oracle smiled. "Of course you won't," he said. "Now you two must get going for the creatures you will encounter next will surly slow you down."
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
"It will take thirty minutes to get to the field that grows the Zera flowers," Aeris said. "How long has it been since we left?"
"It's been four hours," Link said. He smiled to himself. "I don't want to get too ahead of myself," he thought. "But I have a good feeling that I'll be able to save Zelda in time." He then looked at Aeris. "I will tell you about Ganondorf on the way there."
Again the two were riding threw a bright green wood. It was very nice and cozy for Link. He loved woods. It was no wonder since he grew up in them. He remembered the day he got too big for his house in Kokiri Forest. He had to leave the forest and live in the castle. Of course he liked that, but he would always miss the green woods and forest.
"What is that?" Aeris asked pointing ahead.
Link looked at what she was pointing at.
"They look like....Armos knights," he said. "But, bigger."
"Are they dangerous?" Aeris asked worried.
"Yes, very," he said.
"Why are they just standing there?" she asked.
"They will not attack until we get closer," he answered. "Until then." He got off his horse and helped Aeris off hers. He held her hands out and a blue aura surrounded her.
"You will feel less pain with this magic shield," he said. "But it will wear off, so let's go."
Aeris and Link drew their swords and approached the armored enemies. There were five of them. These creatures would be very hard to defeat.
Link looked around for a weak point, but so far he found none.
"I know there's a spell that can melt armor," he thought. "But how do I use it?"
"Aeris, hold them back," Link said. He put away his sword and held his hands out.
The creatures became aware of Aeris and Link's presence and came towards them.
"How can I hold them back?" she thought.
"I cannot defeat them while they have that armor," Link thought. "How do I summon that spell? Concentrate....concentrate."
Two of the armored monsters brought their swords down on Aeris. There was no way she could block both swords so she dived for the ground and rolled out of their way. Even though she had that protective shield, she still did want to get hit.
Link felt himself getting warn out and he also felt the Triforce mark on his hand burn.
Aeris gasped when the shield began to disappear.
She ran behind Link and said, "Hurry."
Link let out a cry and blinding wave of energy flew from his hands. The armor on the creatures began to melt. They screeched in pain as the scorching metal melted on their skin. Even the swords in their hands began to melt.
"Aeris," Link said and fell to his knees. "Take this," he handed her a Din's Fire spell. "Just slam it on the ground."
She took the spell and ran to the frantic creatures. She slammed the crystal to the ground and the same dome of fire surrounded her and spread out, burning the creatures to death.
"Link, are you all right?" Aeris asked him.
"Yes," he answered. "Zelda tried to teach me to use that spell once, but I failed because I wasn't ready. I'm still not....that spell should not have taken so much energy and time."
"But the important thing is that you did," she said. "Stay here. I'll get the Zera flower."
She walked up to a patch of gold and blue colored flowers. She picked three of them and walked back to Link.
"Let's go," she said.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
"Fantastic!" The Oracle said. "You have brought all three ingredients! Princess Zelda will surly live now!"
"Good," Link said.
"Now why don't you and Aeris rest," the Oracle suggested. "It will be a while until Zelda awakes anyway."
"Sounds good to me," Link agreed. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
A few hours later,
Zelda's eyes slowly fluttered open and she found herself sleeping on a soft bed inside a small hut.
"Zelda!" she heard Link's voice exclaim.
"Link?" she said. "What happened?"
He smiled and explained everything.
Zelda was sitting up with a worried look on her face. "We have to get back to Hyrule," she said.
"I agree," said the Oracle. "I have already prepared food supplies, a map, and weapons for her highness. I believe Aeris has a gift for you two."
Link and Zelda looked at each other and walked outside to find Aeris with Storm and Rinoa.
"I want you two keep Storm and Rinoa," she said smiling.
"Aeris, are you sure?" Link asked.
"It's a gift," she said. "You have done s much for us Link. We are free because of you. I want you and the princess to keep these horses and remember Burmecia."
"Thank you so much," Zelda said.
"It was a pleasure helping you, your highness," Aeris said. She then looked at Link. "Please come back to visit us after you defeat Ganondorf."
"I will," Link said.
"Farewell," Aeris said and walked away.
Author's Note: Question! What did ya'll think of Aeris? Should I have her come back later on in the story or leave it alone? And I'm sorry it took so long to get this chapter out. I'm almost finished with my X-Men Evolution story so I'll have a little more time with this one.
Linkboy: Yup, I couldn't come up with any other name so I went with that. What happens after Zelda's treated? You'll find out soon.
