Sutoomu: Seventh chappie, heheh. I remembered my numbers. I love this chapter. It's so fun and cool and interesting and sad and neat and...

Wufei: Do the disclaimer and get on with it so they can read, onna!

Sutoomu: Right, Duo/looks over at Duo who nods/ On three. Three, two, one...

Sutoomu and Duo: D-Claimer Time!

Sutoomu: I said Duo could do the disclaimer today. What.../blinks as everyone sweatdrops/

Duo: Ahem...

D-Claim, uh, Disclaimer: Sutoomu(known as Storm to cool people and all her friends and stuff) does NOT own us, but I think we should be loaned to her for a week or two, 'cause she's cool. But she doesn't own us in any way, none at all. Poor girl. But she made this fanficcie because she was dead bored and wanted to try a crossover and so she thought 'Hey, Link!' and he came runnin' over and said 'Sure!', which is good, 'cause Linkers is a cool guy and all, so we're all havin' fun. But it's not getting her money, poor girl. Anyways, she doesn't have a red cent to her name, oh, wait, she has...seventeen cents to her name, but it's not worth suing for, so don't bother. And she likes white chocolate...

Heero: How is that relevant to the disclaimer?

Duo: White chocolate is always relevant to something!

Sutoomu: It's true, though! I do like white chocolate and chocolate milk and coquettes(which are a really good dutch sausage type food, mmmm) and you guys and anime...

Wufei: Since Storm in busy drooling, I'll finish for her. Please read and review, since I have to know if she is upholding my honor.

Quatre: And enjoy, too.

Trowa: How could they not?

Sutoomu: ...and pizza and reading and writing and drawing...and coquettes and white chocolate...and salted crackers...and pizza...I'm hungry...

oooooOoooooOoooooOoooooOoooooOooooo

"Aaah…," Duo said. "Okay. First, what's this?"

Link took the item from his hands. "This, Duo, is my long-range hookshot, or longshot. It was upgraded when I was at the Water Temple. I got the original hookshot from the ghost of the gravekeeper in Kakariko Village."

"Cool," Duo grinned. "A dead gravekeeper. What's it do?"

Link tried to explain, but Wufei scoffed, saying that was impossible. Link noticed they were all watching him explain about his things. They must be very curious.

"Do you have any place up off the ground where I can shoot to? Wood?" he asked.

"The only place we have is the foyer, that I can think of. It has a wooden balcony," Quatre walked towards the door. "It's only a hall down." He brought Link to the foyer, a grand, vaulted ceiling area with duel stairs at the sides going up into the balcony. Link closed an eye and aimed, then let the longshot fly. It's pointed end connected solidly with the balcony banister, and the next moment Link was flying through the air towards it. He connected with it, grabbed a foothold and held on, then swung over it.

"Now, that is cool!" Duo laughed, then began jumping at Heero's arm. "I want one, Hee-chan!"

"No!" Heero said firmly, and Duo pouted. Link rejoined them on the floor, handing the longshot over to Trowa to look at, and they brought him back to the room. Wufei asked him about his swords next.

"This is the Kokiri Sword," Link held up the very small sword, more of a dagger now. "I used this when I was a kid." He set it down and gestured to the largest one of three. "This is the Biggoron's Sword. It was forged from the remnants of the Giant's Knife by the Biggoron on the top of Death Mountain. And this," he paused as he held up the main sword proudly. "Is the Master Sword, the legendary Sword of Time." He handed it to Wufei, who tested its balance.

"These are fine pieces," he commented, handing it back to Link, who put it down. After all, there was no need for weapons right now.

"A bladed boomerang." Link looked over at Heero, who held his boomerang in his hands. The outer edges were both lined with a fine, deadly blade. He was admiring it, looking it over.

"What're these, Link?" Duo asked, holding up two pairs of boots, one slightly lower than the other. Link pointed to the ones with a layer of iron upon the soles.

"These are my Iron Boots. They help me walk on the bottom of lakes and rivers and such."

"But you can't breathe underwater," Quatre pointed out.

"I can when I wear this," Link held up the blue tunic that had been in his bag. "It's made from fish gills and lets me breathe underwater."

"Wicked," Duo grinned. "What about these ones?" He held up the boots with a golden layer upon the soles, the one with the small golden wings at the back of each.

"These are my Hover Boots," Link smiled. He put them on and climbed onto a chair, then walked straight off. They stared as he walked a few steps in midair on small platforms of golden ligh, then dropped three feet away. "They hover."

"Double wicked," Duo grinned maniacly. Link took them off and offered them to Duo, who put them on eagerly, then tried himself. In a few minutes he was laughing like an insane person, not that Duo really was sane in the first place.

"What does the red tunic do?" Quatre asked inquisitively.

"The red tunic is made from woven Bomb Flower fibers and makes me immune to extreme heat."

"How extreme?" Trowa asked.

"Volcanic extreme," Link replied to a whistle from someone. Probably Duo.

"Man, you have the neatest stuff!" Duo laughed, hovering straight into Heero, who caught him in his arms. "Take me home with you, Link! I think I'd like it in Hyrule!"

Link headed over to an area where three diamond shaped glass crystals were, a small circular ball in the center of each. They were colored red, green, and blue. He picked up the blue one.

"This is Nayru's Love, a special crystal," he said, grabbing their attention, even Duo's, who was still laughing in Heero's arms like a loon. He closed his eyes and cencentrated, then struck it on the ground. It flashed, then shone as he lifted his arms in casting the spell. When he opened his eyes a moment later, he was surrounded by a larger blue crystal. It turned and pulsated with blue light. Once again, the five friends stared at him.

"Okay. Now hurt me."

"Huh?" Duo said, looking like a disturbed fish for a moment.

"Hurt me. Throw a knife at me, or anything. Try and kill me." He looked at them sincerely as they stared in shock at what he just said. "Trust me."

Heero suddenly dropped Duo, who landed with a protesting shout on his rear, and pulled out the steel contraption. He pointed it at Link and did something, because something shot out of the hole in the end and flew towards Link at an incredible speed. It pierced his flesh in his chest and he gasped in pain, a downfall of the spell.

"Heero!" Duo yelled at the same time as Quatre yelled. "Link!"

Link was barreled over by the force of Heero's weapon, pain shooting along his nerves. He closed his eyes and breathed deeply, then relaxed as the spell began to work. He began to use his other senses besides sight to understand what was going on.

"Heero…," he heard Duo croak out. The braided boy sounded incredibly torn. As though he was being ripped apart from inside. Quatre cried out his name and fell to his knees, sobs wracking his body. He heard Trowa kneel beside him, comforting whispers coming as he stroked his back.

"Heero, how could you!" Duo yelled now in rage. There were scuffles on the floor, and then Duo spoke again, a mixture of rage and fury and pain and sobs. "Let me go, Wufei!"

Link felt the last bits of pain subside and he opened his eyes, then sat up to see Quatre crying, Trowa comforting him, and an enraged Duo struggling for Wufei to let go of him so he could tackle Heero. Heero was simply staring at him, and he saw the boy's eyes clear from slightly worried to assurity and confidence as their eyes met. Heero walked over and offered him a hand, which he took, standing up.

"Link…?" Duo gaped at him, believing his eyes were deceiving him. "But…but Heero…and you…you were…dead…"

oooooOoooooOoooooOoooooOoooooOooooo

Sutoomu: And that is the seventh chappie /sniff/ I love this chappie. It's so...

Duo: Cool! The Linkster gets to join us, yah/longshots away/

Sutoomu: Heero, can you please go retrieve the braided wonder and get Link back his stuff? He's getting prepared for the next chappie.

Heero: Mission accepted.

Sutoomu: But don't shoot him, please.

Heero: Hn.

Sutoomu: He'd never actually shoot any of his friends, you know. /talks to readers/ He's actually kinda nice. Anyways, please review, and then move on to the eighth chappie!
