I hope this chapter is as good too. I'm highly doubting that i'll get flames, but be warned now that your negative opinions ('flames' in fanfiction lingo) do not matter and will be ignored, but more than likely laughed at.

Triforce Tales

Chapter Two

A Boy of Destiny

The next thing that came to vision was a dark grey hallway. Footsteps echoed in the silence and soon Kira was seen walking in the light of the hallway, though she did not know where she was, nor did she know the time. She gazed around curiously at mystious symbols of what might be an old hystoric language, carved on the surrounding walls.

She began to run her hands and fingers along the nearest wall, feeling the carvings. Before she could even guess what it meant, another sound was heard further along the hallway. Her head quickly spun around to see the hallway which ended in a bright white light. Suddenly, she noticed that the hallway was actually getting closer and closer. What was strange was that she hadn't even moved.

Not wanting to know what was beyond the light, Kira quickly turned and ran as fast as her legs would allow in the opposite direction. Despite her efforts, the end of the hallway had caught up with her, and soon she fell backwards into the light...into nothing

When everything came to, the first thing Kira noticed was the outline of a man. The only thing the shadowy outline gave away was the figure of the man, which was rather big and bulky. Big and strong looking to say the least. By himself, the man seems to illuminate nothing but darkness along with that sickly feeling the stomach gets; a feeling of discomfort.

The man slowly began to approach Kira, who tried to back away but ended up tripping over her own feet. As he neared, flaming red hair was noticeable, with equally red eyes. A grin flashed across his face as his hand reached for Kira.

Suddenly, a yelp of somesort was heard, but not from Kira. Another man had entered the scene, but only after ramming his shoulder into the chest of the first man. The man with the red hair flew a few feet and crash hard on the ground. Seconds later, the man was back on his feet, apparently unharmed, though the second man didn't seem too worried at all.

Kira looked up to see the second man. The one thing that stood out amongst the other features were the eyes. Deep blue...they were...somewhat familiar. Long dirty blonde hair waved in front of his forehead and slightly his eyes. Kira then looked down to see a hand covered in a brown fingerless glove. She looked back up at the mysterious youth and felt a rushing sense of trust she never thought she'd ever feel towards a random stranger.

Without question, she grabbed his hand, and he helped her to his feet. They once again stared at each other, and in that moment, Kira felt as though she'd known this person her whole life. A feeling she couldn't describe, but she felt as if she was this person...or at least similar to him.

"Kira? Are you alright?" a familiar voice asked, coming out of the mysterious young man.

Kira had the feeling that this was not his voice at all, though it did sound like someone she knew. Before she could think further, the dark blonde hair'd man put himself in front of her so that he was now face to face with the first man. The sound of metal was heard, and a sword appeared in the right hand of the blonde man, as a shield appeared on his left arm.

The second man stood his ground ready to attack, while the first man did the same; flashing that evil grin like he did before.

"Kira...please...come back..." the same voice pleaded, but this time it did not come from the mysterious man.

Suddenly, like in the hallway, Kira was being moved without actually moving. She was being pulled away from the two men, and the last thing she saw was the young man charge wildly at the red-haired man, who also began to charge. Before to two titans clashed, Kira saw a blue dot hovering above the younger man...a fairy it seemed...

And then she came to...

"No!" Kira screeched, squirming wildly.
"Gah! Kira, stop! You're in no condition to be moving like that," the voice from her dreams, gasped.

Kira began to pant repeatedly, glancing around at her new surroundings. The voice had apparently came from Sima, who was kneeling over her, looking more worried than she had ever seen him. Her hair was a mess and icy sweat covered most of her body. Her body was increadbly sore and was in enough pain without the large cut across her chest. Suddenly her eyes bulged.

"Where is he!" she demanded.
"What?" Sima replied.
"Where...where is he...my boy..." she panted wearily.
"Oh, that. He's over there..." Sima sighed pointing to a nearby baby craddle that seemed to be made of gigantic leafs and sticks. To be blunt, it looked like an oversized birds nest.
"Where are we?" Kira asked, trying to forget the dream or nightmare she just had.
"We're in the forest...under watch of the Great Deku Tree..." Sima whispered.

Kira's eyes widened. She had heard many stories of the Great Deku Tree...and the forest people...or 'fairy folk' as some referred to them as. Suddenly, rolled over and began to cough. Blood began to spurt from her mouth.

"Gracious! What in the world happened?" Sima asked, obviously not wanting to wait any longer.
"They attacked...our village...you already know...they tried to take...him," Kira wheezed, glancing at her young child who was peacefully asleep.

Kira tried to speak further, but her body wouldn't allow it. She collapsed on her stomach, and her face was buried in the soft grass. Sima quickly rolled her on her back. Tears were running down her face.

"Kira..." Sima said softly.
"Sima...I'm not going to make it," she cried quietly, "I couldn't let them kill him. My child...the only thing I have."

By this point, Sima was in tears too. He gently held Kira's hand as she looked up into his eyes.

"Sima...please...give him a future. Keep him safe. He...he is...a boy of destiny. I can't explain it, but I sense...that he will change the lives of many...the course of the world even...I'm sorry if I sound a little crazy," she chuckled through her tears.
"Don't be silly...I believe in destiny...in fate..." Sima smiled warmly at her.
"Oh Sima, you've been so good to me all my life. You have been...my greatest friend...I hope you continue to do good...make people smile and warm as you did to me..."
"Of course, Kira. Always," Sima nodded.
"Bring him to me, please," Kira requested.

Without word, Sima rushed over to the craddle and once again bundled the baby in his arms. He gently brought him as he kneeled at Kira's side, and placed him in her shaking arms. She gazed into her baby's eyes and smiled.

"'Time passes...people move...like a river's flow...it never ends...' that's what someone wise once told me. I hope you move through your life with happiness, laughter, and joy. I sense that you'll change the lives of many, my son...Link," Kira whispered gently.

A few more tears leaked out from her eyes as she slowly fell back to the earth, her eyes closing for the final time. Sima felt an uneasy feeling as Kira's hand went lifeless and too fell to the ground.

Sima continued to silently cry as he picked up the child and held yet again.

"You heard everything?" he inquired.
"Yes...I didn't want to interupt," a wise voice said from behind Sima.

Sima turned around and was now facing a rather large tree. He glanced at the baby in his arms and then to the Great Deku Tree.

"Will you take him?" Sima asked, wiping the tears on his face onto his cloak sleeves.
"Yes. He will be safe here...hmm...I sense it too," the Deku Tree mused to himself.
"Sense what?" Sima questioned.
"This boy does have a big future ahead of him," the Deku Tree said thoughtfully, "But don't worry. He will be safe here, more than anywhere else. Just return him to that bed over there."

Sima nodded respectfully and did as he was told. After placing the young boy in the craddle, he bid his farewells to the Great Deku Tree, gently picked up and carried the body of his life long friend, Kira, and headed out of the forest...to where he was going, no one knows.
