"Link I know you can do it...Please hurry, we don't have much time left."
Link seemed to be looking for the bearer of the voice, and not paying any attention to where he was going and rammed into the wall of the Lon-Lon-Ranch.
"Yoouch," groaned Link and rubbed the back of his head and looked up, "Hey interesting dream leaves me in pain-I'm starting to think this isn't a dream."
Navi buzzed around his ear, giving him the sign to hurry it up, or else! Link shrugged and followed Navi around the wall of Lon-Lon-Ranch, until they reach the entrance. Something felt familiar to him, about this place, but he couldn't get the picture straight in his mind.
"Come on Link!" said Navi who already was flying into the Ranch.
"Hey! Wait!" shouted Link following her in.
Once Link stepped in, a wave of shock or something went through him-memories? He shook his head and glanced around the ranch; on opposite sides of him where to two buildings, one was probably the shed for cows, and the other was of course the house for the ranchers. Link was about to move forward when a beautiful voice struck his ears, it made him feel odd inside, this lovely voice and song reminded him of a place...
"HEY!" shouted Navi, shaking Link out of his thoughts, "LISTEN!"
Link stared at the fairy, "Alright, I was only thinking you know-"
"That's my job, I do all your thinking," said Navi and started to buzz around his head again, "let's go! We really don't have all day!"
"What do you want boy?!"
Link gasped and turned around to see a round man sneering at him, he was holding a bucket.
"I asked you a question kid, what are you doing here?!" snapped the man again.
"Uhhh-well you see-uh-"stumbled Link, "My name is Link-"
The man's eyes went wide in surprise, "LINK!? WOW! It's been so long! Malon will be so happy to see you! I didn't recognize you for some odd reason! It's me Talon!" said Talon with an added grin pasted on his face, and walked up to Link patting his back hard, "It's great to see you-go on and see Malon." Said Talon and quickly disappeared into the shed.
Link took Talon's advice and walked the rest of the way to the opening unto the field, where the cries of horses greeted him and also Malon's voice.
"Wow," mumbled Link gazing around his surroundings, walking along until he was in view of Malon, "Malon?"
"HEY!" shouted Navi.
Malon's eyes fluttered open, a surprise look fell upon her face, her singing stopped, and a smile spread across her face.
"Li-link? Link is-is it-it really youuu?" asked Malon, she seemed to be out of breath at the sight of him, for it has been so long since the last time she saw him.
"Uhmm well its-"started Link.
"-Of course it's him!" said Navi cutting Link off, "Malon I'm glad he hasn't found you!"
Malon was quite then she slowly said, "I know...But at least Link is back! Where have you been all these years?" asked Malon turning to Link.
Link didn't know what to say to her, because he lived a life with his family, not here; he never lived here.
"Look Malon, I don't have a clue, but really I'm not the 'Link' you know. I'm Link Matthews, student-teacher, not a hero of time," said Link looking away, "see I lived a life where-it's not here-and you have to understand that..."
"Don't worry Link. He already told me," smiled Malon then added, "I'll help train you, okay?"
"Told you what?" asked Link.
"HEY!" shouted Navi, "I know this is a nice chat, but we have to get a move on! Gannon could be-"
Laughter echoed through out Lon-Lon Ranch, it possessed evil. Malon gave a small cry, while Navi flew about, sensing the evil of the laughter.
"Okay, what a nice laugh there-is there something I need to know now?" asked Link blankly.
"Is this the hero of time? Then it shall be so easy to take over this idiotic girl's body and the other singers!"
"That isn't Gannon!? Who are you!?" shouted Navi.
A dark shadow crept across Lon-Lon Ranch, making Link more nervous and Navi more frustrated.
"Who are you!?" asked Link looking around, but seeing nothing that would show the attacker.
The shadow quickly covered the ranch, but the laughter increased as Link and Malon punched at thin air. Nothing was going to go right.
"Malon, get out of here! This wacko wants you, and uh-what-"Link started to say grabbing Malon's hand, but soon he started to black out, memories or something was brewing him to darkness, not because of the shadow or maybe it was, but the thoughts going through him.
"What a shame, oh poor stupid boy," said a woman appearing before him or so he thought. She grabbed his chin, holding him off the ground, "Do you really think you can defeat me? So sorry boy, but, I'm gonna have to play dirty-"she snapped her fingers from her free hand. Strange liquid formed around Malon's body, enclosing her inside.
"Malon! NO!" shouted Navi as she flew towards her, hitting the barrier.
"Oh what a shame, that it is," grinned the woman and turned back to Link, "Pain is the shame of losing, isn't it?"
Link glared at her, "I don't care." He spits in her face, "You're the one with the shame!"
"Disgusting creature," the woman said casually and as casually she threw Link into the barn's wall, "I must leave now with my prize. Gannon shall be pleased with me."
Link groaned from his hit to the wall, darkness consumed him.
Malon's screaming for help quickly vanished from his ears, and so did the cries of Navi leave him alone, but one thing would never leave him, her voice...
"Link, I know you'll come for me..."
