THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: THE CHOSEN'S RETURN

ACT ONE, SCENE TWO: THOUGH THE GATE

The sun shone with caring warmth and the clouds rolled by like leaves in the wind. The lake that they passed sparkled beautifully and the birds chipped with laughter. But all this happiness couldn't make Colette any happier. After all, she was thinking about what will happen in Termina. How would her friends perceive her when they find out that she betrayed others? How would they react when they tell her that she slaughtered countless people? How would anyone like someone who is a killer just for game?

"Colette, are you okay?" Lloyd asked. "You look kinda sick."

"I'm fine," Colette said. "I'm just a little tired, that's all."

"Tired?" Genis asked. "Colette, you slept the entire afternoon yesterday. And after Lloyd came to Iselia, you went to bed again."

"Oh…" Colette said.

"Is there's something on your mind, Colette?" Raine asked. "You usually don't look too good when there's something to hide."

"Is there something you want to tell us?" Lloyd asked.

Colette though about telling them about what happened in Termina. What happened with Majora's Mask and her friends. But she found herself saying, "No, there's nothing."

"Nothing, Colette?" Lloyd asked.

"Nope, nothing," Colette answered.

"Are you sure, nothing?" Genis asked.

"Yes, nothing!" Colette answered again.

"Really, nothing?" Raine asked.

"LOOK, THERE'S NOTHING AT ALL!" Colette screamed. "IS IT THAT HARD FOR YOU TO TRUST ME?"

"Jeez, you been kinda moody ever since I brought Clock Town up," Lloyd said. "Are you sure there isn't anything you want to tell us?"

"Look…Lloyd. Why…don't…you…LEAVE ME ALONE!" and with that, Colette stormed off in front of everyone else.

"She'll tell us in time," Raine said.

"I know," Lloyd answered. "She's still trying to protect us from the truth. I'll be the first one to know of it, I swear."

And with that, the group continued to the portal leading to Clock Town. After they found the portal, they all jumped in at the same time. They appeared inside the Clock Tower. The group made their way outside.

"Wow!" Genis said. "Look at the size of that clock tower!"

"An amazing piece of history," Raine said. "Just look at how old it is."

"Guys, it's just a big clock," Lloyd said. "It doesn't look like much."

Colette just found herself staring at the clock tower, remembering how she almost brought Termina its destruction.

"Colette, Colette?" Lloyd said. "Come on, were going now. Colette?"

"What?" she said. "Uh, Lloyd? Okay, I'm coming!" And she dashed to the others.

"Colette?" Mido found himself looking at the strange girl. "Did that guy say, Colette? Nah, it's got to be some mistake. Even Colette wouldn't grow that fast."

The group made their way to East Clock Town, following the directions to get to the inn.

"Welcome to the Stock Pot Inn!" welcomed Anju. "Do you have a reservation?"

"Uh, yes!" Lloyd said, handing over the brochure.

"Yes, the Happy Mask Salesman," she said. "He reserved two rooms. Both of them are upstairs." And she handed over the keys. She looked at Colette.

"My, you look familiar," she said. "Do you happen to know who the Hero of Time is?"

Colette shook her head.

"Oh, it must be someone else then. Kafei, would you please bring their bags?" she asked her husband.

"Alright, coming!" he said and carried the bags up to their rooms. "There you are," he said, holding out his hand for a tip.

"Oh, no," Lloyd said. "I knew we forgot something. Let's see. Maybe I could spare you 50 gald." Lloyd searched his pockets for some gald. Instead, he pulled out a red rupee and a blue rupee. "Huh? What are these?"

"Ah, twenty-five rupees," he sounded delighted and took it. "Thank you, sir!"

"How did this get in here?" Lloyd asked.

"Remarkable!" Raine exclaimed. "When we passed through the portal, it must have converted to the currency of Clock Town."

"Before we came here, I had 100,000 gald with me. So if I convert that to rupees, then I'd get…I don't know…"

"50,000 rupees," Genis said. "Due to the fact that you meant to give him 50 gald and pulled out 25 rupees, the amount of gald you have is cut in half so you would have 50,000 rupees."

"Wow," Kafei said. "You're loaded!"

"I know," Lloyd said, proudly. "So I'll divide this between the four of us. That will give us each…"

"125,000 rupees each," Genis said. "Lloyd, you were never good in math."

"Shut up!" Lloyd said, slapping Genis in the head.

"Owwww…" Genis yelled. "Is there anywhere I can go where there water for my head?"

"Yes," Kafei said. "Someone is using our washroom, but there's a laundry pool near South Clock Town, at the far left side."

"Then I'm off to South Clock Town," Genis said, making his way to the door.

"Alright, then," Raine said. "Make sure you get here before dark."

"Will do!"

Genis made his way to the laundry pool where the water was icy cold. He sat down and poured water all over his head. "Ahhh…" he thought. "That hits the spot."

Just then, a girl appeared behind him. Genis looked at her saying, "Who are you?"

She came up to him and said, "Someone that wants answers."

What will happen next? Who is this strange girl? How will Genis escape this situation? Why do I ask you all these questions? Please R&R and tell me what you think.
