Zelda no Densetsu: Kaze no Takuto

Disclaimer: Fairy Red offers her thanks to "Dude", so far the only reviewer to this fanfic. That is all for me to say…

A/N: Okay, I have a spoiler coming up! A purple-haired-and-eyed Shadow named Emily! She appears in the first book of the 10 book series of my upcoming Zelda no Densetsu… um, book series. Emily won't be the only spoiler character, let me tell you!

Chapter Two: The King of Red Lions, a scary shadow, and a "journey" to Dragon Roost Island.

"GOOD AFTERNOON! Wake up, child, it's a fine sunny day!"

Chikara stirred wearily, and he opened his eyes. "…" He slipped back into unconsciousness.

"Child… Oi, child, you'd better wake up now…" The red boat shook its head. "Child, the suns up, it's half past noon… Wake up already!"

Chikara opened his eyes again. "What… happened…?" he asked, sitting up.

"Well, it's about time you awoke!"

Chikara stiffened, and looked around for the speaker. "Uhm… Who's there? Chi-Chikara-chan doesn't have money or-or anything..." he stood up, and realized that he was on a boat. "What the…?"

"Chikara, is it? That's a strange name," said the head of the boat, and he turned around to face Chikara. "Are you okay?" he asked.

For a few seconds, Chikara just stared wide-eyed at the boats head. He then realized that it was a boat talking to him… "Kyaaa!" he shouted, and almost jumped out if the boat, but the boats mouth grabbed onto Chikara's hat.

"Hey now, Chikara! Wait a bit!" he pulled Chikara over the boat.

Chikara cried out and shouted, "Please don't eat Chikara-chan! Chikara-chan can assure you that he is nothing but skin and bones!"

The boats face blinked and dropped Chikara, who backed up. "What, you thought I was going to eat you?" He laughed loudly. "Don't be ridiculous, I'm a boat! I don't eat little elves like you!" Chikara stared fearfully back at the boat, and the boat sighed. "Will it make you feel better if I introduced myself? I am the King of Red Lions!" he said, raising his head majestically (in the background the wind blows and you can hear some seagulls caw mysteriously).

"That—That's a rather long name for a bo-boat…" Chikara stammered, sitting down. "Chikara-chan will trust you… You don't seem like a bad… boat."

"You trust me so easily? Hmm… Hey, don't worry!" Red Lions added hurriedly, catching the look on Chikaras face. "I am someone you can trust, Chikara! After all, did I leave you to drown out at sea when I found you?"

Chikara shook his head, wiping the last of his tears away. "No, you didn't… Thank you, by the way… for saving Chikara-chan…"

"Hey, that's no problem! Anyway, Chikara… Could you tell me what happened to you for your life to lead you here, looking severely underfed and with the look of utter defeat?"

Chikara looked down, feeling a bit ashamed that he couldn't save Aryll after all that, and told the King of Red Lions the whole story.

Red Lions thought for a bit. "I see… Well, Chikara, it looks as though you want nothing more then to save your sister."

Chikara nodded eagerly. "Oh, yes! Chikara-chan can't fail Aryll again! Who knows how long they may keep her alive!" The truth of it all stung somewhere inside Chikara, but he shook his head. "You see, Red Lions! And there were two more girls held captive, too, and—"

"And you want to save them, too," finished Red Lions shrewdly. Chikara nodded. "Okay, then, Chikara! It looks like I can be useful! There is something in Dragon Roost Island that can help us out! We shall set sail, heading east, to DRAGON ROOST ISLAND!" Red Lions exclaimed. Chikara smiled and waited for Red Lions to move. "Um… This is a bit embarrassing…" he said quietly, "but it seems that we're missing two things…"

"Nani! After that small speech right there, you say we have a problem!" Chikara cried unbelievingly.

"Well, yeah… First thing, we need a sail."

"A sail!"

"Well… Yes, I am an extraordinary boat, capable of speech and even movement of my head… Yet, I lack a sail."

Chikara fell over Anime-Style. "Gaaah! You don't have a sail! What kind of boat sails without the sail first!"

"Hey, don't look at me like that! Besides, even if we did have a sail, we couldn't get anywhere, because Dragon Roost Island lies to the east, and a northerly wind is blowing… We'll have to wait here for the winds to change…"

Chikara sighed. "Where is here, anyway?"

"Oh, I took you to Windfall Island. It's a small village, but the people here are friendly enough. I'm sure they'd help you find a sail."

"Okay, then…" Chikara looked up. "Oh, the winds will change soon. Don't worry." Chikara nodded and jumped off Red Lions. "Chikara-chan will go find a sail, okay? Be back soon…"

Red Lions watched Chikara walk away. "Really? The wind doesn't show signs of…" Red Lions turned his head east, and sure enough, the wind began to blow in that direction. "Wow… How could he know that would happen? Chikara's very young, yet he could predict the wind like…" Red Lions looked back at Chikara. "I think I may have found…"

With Chikara-chan…

Chikara walked along the towns streets, looking to his feet. So many people, so many talkers, too much to talk about, and Chikara here was a bit of a shyster. "Where's a sail… a sail…" he muttered, looking around for a sail. "Does anyone here have a sail…?" asked Chikara, hearing his stomach growl yet again.

"Hey, you!" someone called, running towards Chikara.

"Aaack! Um… Ha-Hai?" asked Chikara nervously, because that someone running towards him was a tall, big-muscled man.

"Who are you?" he asked, whipping out a clipboard from nowhere.

"Um… Who—Who wants to know?"

"Oh, it's nothing, don't worry! Its just, because of the recent kidnappings on Windfall Island, it's my job to take tabs on everyone who comes into town, just in case they are… Well, your name, please?"

"Um… Chikara-chans name is Chikara-chan…"

"Chikara-chan? Hmm, strange name. Sounds so… Southern."

"Well, Chikara-chan comes from the south… Way down south, from Outset Island."

"Outset Island? Wow, that's far. I've only been there once. Not as many buildings as Windfall, but it's a bigger island… I wonder if Sue-Belle still lives there?" he asked under his breath.

"If that's all…"

"Okay, then, another question: Reason for coming to Windfall Island?"

Chikara looked down. "Chikara-chan's looking for a sail, so he can sail to Dragon Roost Island…"

"Dragon Roost Island? Oh, nice island, big volcano on top of it… Hey, Chikara, want to hear something about Dragon Roost Island?" Chikara nodded. "I hear that on Dragon Roost Island, a small tribe of winged elves called the Rito live there!"

Chikara looked up, amazed. "Wai! Winged elves live there!" The man nodded, and wrote something down on his clipboard.

"Alright, one more thing: How old are you?"

"12."

"12? Wow, that's quite young for an elf… Not even close to a preteen… Alright, Chikara! You may go on. And if you need a sail, go see Zunari. I think he had a sail on sale… Chikara, if you need something to eat," he added, for Chikara's stomach growled loudly, as though determined to get Chikara's attention, "I'd go to the café. They have some nice food and drinks there, and kids under 122 get half-off. Well, have fun!" the man pocketed the clipboard, and walked away.

A/N: 122 is about 12-14 in human years.

"Uh, thank you!" Chikara called, and decided to get a sail first. "Um… Hello?" he called to a man in a big parka-like coat, which he suspected to be Zunari. "Do—Are you Zunari?"

The man in the big parka coat turned around. "What was that? I didn't hear that!"

"Are you Zunari?"

"Am I Zunari? Dear me, yes! I'd be Zunari, and I come from a far-off village! Oh, my, I'm so excited to live here! Are you a native of Windfall Island?"

"No, but Chikara-chan—"

"No? Hmm… So then, I am not the only complete stranger! Dear me, I thought I'd be the only, you know, weird one! What was it you wanted, again? And who are you, se we don't remain strangers?"

"Chikara-chans name is Chikara-chan, and Chikara-chan needs a sail so he can set sail for Dragon Roost Island."

"A sail? Well, it seems as though I do have a sail… But this sail, I must say, was passed down from my parents, who I had to leave behind to find myself a future… But you seem desperate for one… Dear, dear, what should I do…?"

"Well… Chikara-chan can come back later till you decide… Chikara-chans kinda hungry…"

"Okay, then… Oh, dear, I have no clue… What should I do? I love this sail… Yet he needs a sail…"

Chikara stared at him blankly, and walked to the café. "Um… Hello?" Chikara asked, walking up the stairs.

"Why, hello there, kid! What brings you here?" asked the bartender on the other side of the counter. "You certainly don't look any older then 122… How old are you, and who are you?"

"12, and Chikara-chans name is—"

"Chikara-chan? Hey, Dampa was just telling me about you! You the new kid, then?" Chikara nodded, and was about to speak again when the bartender said, "I should introduce myself… My name's Gillian, and… Well, as you can see, I serve everything here, food drinks, you name it, and I'll see if I have it, then serve it! It's my duty to serve the people of Windfall the food and drinks they need! Hungry? Look no further then the Windfall Café!" Gillian took a breath and smiled. "So, what'll it be?"

"Uh… What do you have?" asked Chikara, sitting at an empty table.

A/N: In this fanfic, the Windfall Café is a LOT bigger then in the game, just to let you know…

"Here's the menu, kid. Just let me know when your ready to order."

Chikara looked at the menu, and his face fell. Oh, no… These prices… Chikara-chan can't afford any of these… He only has 2 rupees… "Chikara-chan will have water…"

"Water, then. Anything else?" Chikara shook his head. "Water's the only free thing on the menu…" Gillian gave Chikara a shrewd look and said, "Don't have much money on you, do you?"

Chikara went a bit red with embarrassment. "Uhm, We-Well, Chikara-chan has… some money, he—he's just not very hungry right now…"

Gillian raised an eyebrow when she heard Chikara's stomach rumble after he said that. "Uh-huh. Okay, be back in 2 seconds with your water…" she walked to the counter to get some water.

Chikara put his head down on the table. "Oh… hate being poor…" Chikara pulled out his journal and began to write.

Day 4

Well, apparently (after I was tossed from the Forsaken Fortress -), a red sailboat named King of Red Lions rescued me from the sea, and brought me to Windfall Island. I am currently sitting at a table in the café, hoping for some food, but… I have only 2 rupees… All I can afford is water, which is for free… Hungry… desperately hungry…

And to think, I still need a sail… That baka Red Lions doesn't have a sail, even though he can talk and move his head! We need a sail so we can go to Dragon Roost Island, where some rumors say… That winged elves live there! Amazing! I never even seen a winged elf, though I've read of them... Red Lions thinks that something in Dragon Roost will help me rescue Aryll...

Aryll… I'm sorry I couldn't save you… I promise, when I can get back to the fortress… Nothing will stop me from saving you! Nothing! I shall redeem myself, and return both of us safely to Obaa-san… And we will never be separated again…

Chikara-chan, Windfall Island, 12:57 PM. Status: Desperately hungry, and equally determined!

Chikara sighed, closing the journal, and pulled something else out. "Aaack! Niko's Spoils Bag! Chikara-chan forgot to return it!"

"Something wrong, Chikara?" asked Gillian, setting down the water. "Cute bag," she commented, and walked away to help another customer.

Chikara took a sip of water, wishing he could've at least brought some of Obaa-sans ElixirSoup. "Obaa-san… Are you worried about Chikara-chan and Aryll?" he asked quietly, and finished the water. "Oi, Gillian, Chikara-chans finished with the water!"

"Okay, then, just leave it there, I'll get it in a bit! Thank you, Chikara!"

Chikara nodded. "Thanks…" he said, voice suddenly sounding faint. Chikara-chan can't faint now… He thought despairingly, and opened the door, walking out to talk to Zunari again. "Hey, Zunari… Eh, have you decided what to do with the sail?"

Zunari nodded. "Why, yes, sir, I have! I decided that I couldn't just give it away! I mean, what would my mom say? Dear me, she'd have a heart attack before she could say anything! So I decided… that 80 rupees seems a reasonable price!"

"80… rupees…?" repeated Chikara faintly.

"Yeah, and that's half of how much my dad paid for this baby." Zunari unfolded a white sail, with a dark green design on it. "Lovely, no? You can see why this sail costs 80 rupees! I originally had it for 160 rupees, but since no one seemed to want it, I docked the price, and all items are 50 percent off! So, want the sail?"

Chikara stared wide-eyed at Zunari. "80 rupees? That—That's a bit expensive, wouldn't you agree!"

"I say, 80 rupees is a very reasonable price! Unless you'd prefer 160 rupees?"

Chikara shook his head. "No… no, 80 rupees… 160 rupees… Too expensive… Um, Chikara-chan will come back…" Chikara walked off in a different direction, and sat down on the stairs. "This isn't Chikara-chans day…" he muttered, leaning against a wall. How can Chikara-chan get 80 rupees? That's impossible…

"Hey, you!" said a voice behind Chikara, and Chikara looked back to see a small quartet of boys. "Who do you think you are, sitting on our spot!" demanded the one with spiky hair.

"Yeah, this is OUR turf, the turf of the Killer Bees!" said another with blue hair.

"Chikara-chan didn't know that this was… Your turf…"

"What a dorky outfit!" exclaimed a pig-nosed one.

Chikara stood up, and his hand reached for his sword. "Want to mess with Chikara-chan?" he asked, beginning to feel so annoyed that no one here cared for a poor-looking kid like him.

"Yes, as a matter of fact, we do!" said another chubby one.

"Even someone with a sword?" Chikara said menacingly, pulling out the Hero's Sword.

The leader stiffened at the sight of the sword, but he didn't flinch and back up like the other three did. "So, you think you're such a big man because you have on some kooky outfit and a sword? Want to land me one? I doubt you could."

"Oh, yeah? Try Chikara-chan!" Chikara said, taking a small step towards the leader.

"Come—Come on, Ivan," said the blue haired kid, "He has a sword, he'll cut us to ribbons!" The other Killer Bee's nodded in agreement.

"Come on, does Chikara here look the type to cut someone up? Eh, Chikara?" asked Ivan, facing Chikara. "You threaten someone, you carry out the threat. That's out motto! Come on, then! Let's see it!"

The chubby one was about to protest, when the pig nosed one nudged him and nodded. "Right…"

"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING TO THESE CHILDREN!" screeched someone behind Chikara, and a pink-haired adult pushed Chikara away. "Oh my, are you kids okay?" for the kids pretended that they were all crying.

"Nani! They weren't crying two seconds ago!" exclaimed Chikara.

The pink-haired lady glared at Chikara. "How dare you, what were you thinking, threatening these kids with a sword!"

"He—He said he was going to slice us to ribbons!" sobbed Ivan, and when the lady wasn't looking, he smiled evilly at Chikara.

"Look, he cut my hand!" exclaimed the blue haired kid, and he quickly hid his knife when the teacher looked worryingly at him.

"Oh, you poor dears, let me return you all to your parents… I shall deal with you in a bit…" said the teacher, and walked away with the four kids, who all made faces at Chikara behind the teacher.

Chikara sighed, sheathing the sword. "Darn it…" He looked around for a place to hide. "Great, now what…?" The answer came to him with a soft rumble. "Eh?"

A/N: Here she comes!

Suddenly, the skies went pitch black, and though the rumbling didn't get any intense, it got louder. "Heh, heh, heh, heh…" laughed an evil-sounding voice.

Chikara jumped, and looked around. "Eh! Who—Who's there!"

"Are you telling me you don't recognize me?" said the evil voice. A small booted foot appeared from the shadows. "Then allow me to refresh your memory…" Someone stepped out of the shadows, to reveal a girl with purple hair, purple eyes, and a purple tunic with black undershirt.

"Whoa…" breathed Chikara.

The girl narrowed her eyes, and then pointed at Chikara. "You're not Lee!" she screeched in a high-pitched voice, and Chikara covered his ears.

"What—What do you mean? Who's Lee?"

She tilted her head curiously at Chikara. "Hmm… Say, what's your name then?"

"Chikara-chans name is Chikara-chan… Who are you?"

She smiled a big bunny smile. "My name! My name is Emily!" She suddenly zoomed in front of Chikara's face. "SOO, Chikara-chan! Are we gonna go on adventure or what!"

"What do you mean adventure!" Chikara asked, backing up a little. "Chikara-chan barely knows you!"

Emily winked. "Cause I know what you need!" Everything around Emily and Chikara suddenly went back to normal, and the people of Windfall didn't seem to notice anything happen. "Come on, then. Let me get the sail for you!" Emily skipped happily to Zunari, Chikara following close by. "YO, ZUNARI!" yelled Emily.

Zunari jumped and turned around sharply. "Excuse me, young miss, but I can hear you perfectly! Just because I have on a huge parka, that doesn't mean I can't hear you!"

"Guess what, parka elf? I need a sail," said Emily, leaning on the counter.

"Do you now? What a coincidence, that boy behind you was here about a fair few minutes ago, asking for a sail. He didn't send you to buy your sail did he? Just something a female elf like you would do!" Zunari said, laughing loudly.

There was a second when Emily blinked, looking confused, then smiled a rabbit smile. "Ah hah, hah, hah, hah! Are you—Are you telling me!" she asked through a fit of giggles, "That I, Emily, am taking orders from Chikara!"

"Why, dear me, yes! That's exactly what I was saying!" giggled Zunari.

Suddenly, Emily glared a very evil glare, and reached over the counter to pull on the bottom of Zunari's hood. "I… don't take orders… from anyone… Zunari," she said, eyes glowing menacingly.

Zunari gulped. "Oh! Dear, I am so sorry, miss! I am! Forgive me!"

"Now, I'll forgive you… If you give us that sail for free," Emily offered, eyes narrowing. "So I won't have to do something… scary, to you…"

Chikara glanced fearfully at Emily. For some reason, her very presence was frightening, and she seemed so cheerful and bright…

Emily picked up the sail, and handed it to Chikara. "Here. NOW! We're off!" declared Emily. "Where's the King?"

Chikara stared at the sail for a second, then attempted to fold it. "There, that'll do!" he said happily, holding up the messily folded sail. "So… King? Ah, you must mean Red Lions!" said Chikara.

"Yep! Come on, let's go!" Emily grabbed Chikara's arm and dragged him to Red Lions. "Oi!" she called. "RED LIONS! Guess who's back!"

Red Lions yawned loudly and faced Chikara. "Humph! About time! I'm been waiting for…" he paused when he saw Emily. "Who are—EMILY!"

"Wow! A talking boat! And he knows my name, too!" squealed Emily.

"Whoops…" Red Lions cleared his throat and added, "Never mind! Chikara, did you get the sail?"

"Well, actually, Emily got it for Chikara-chan… She wants to come with us…"

"Does she?"

"YESSIR!" answered Emily, "Wanna know why?" Emily took a deep breath…. "Cause I havenothingelsetodoandthatmeansthatIamveryboredrightnowandyoudontwanttoseeaShadowangrybecauseshemightdosomethingreallyreallynaughtyandpossessalittlekidlikeChikaranexttomeandhavehimjumpoffacliffjustforthefunofitandwedon'twantthatdowe?" asked Emily all in one breath.

The red sailboat sighed. "No, I guess not… But where could you fit? We have no room for you.

"THAT'S FINE! I'll just sit up here!" Emily jumped high and landed on Red Lions head. "Bam-Bum!" she cheered.

"HEY! Hey, get off my head!" yelled Red Lions.

Chikara sighed, and climbed aboard. "Can we just go now?"

"Where are we going?" asked Emily from her post on Red Lions head.

"Dragon Roost Island," answered Red Lions.

"Say, Red Lions! Is it true that winged elves live on Dragon Roost Island?"

"Winged elves? Hmm… Oh, you must mean the Rito people! Have you ever heard of the Rito?"

"Rito? No… Someone mentioned a Rito in Windfall, but can't remember his name…"

"I DO!" said Emily excitedly. "The Rito are a tribe of winged elves!"

"You don't say?" asked Red Lions sarcastically.

"Well, are we setting sail?" asked Chikara.

"You're absolutely right! No time to waste! ONWARD!" yelled Red Lions, and they sailed off for Dragon Roost Island!

35 minutes later…

Chikara sighed, looking out towards sea. "Are we there yet!" he asked.

"Be patient, and the fish will bite your bait," said Red Lions sagely.

"But Chikara-chan despises fishing!" cried Chikara, not getting the expression.

"But fishing is so much fun!" Emily said smiling happily.

"Doesn't matter! We'll be there in about 20 minutes!"

"How is it that Dragon Roost is so far away from Windfall if you can see Dragon Roost from Windfall!" exclaimed Chikara exasperatedly.

"Don't make me take a longer route!"

"And by longer route he means he'll circle the island 5 times to make you dizzy," said Emily.

"We'll get there, don't worry!"

"Well, we'd better get there soon, the wind will change southwest soon!"

"How soon is soon!"

"Soon as in 5 minutes!"

"That doesn't leave us much time," stated Emily matter-of-factly.

"How can you tell!"

"Don't know! Something just tells Chikara-chan the wind will change!"

"How long have you been predicting the direction of the wind?" asked Red Lions, curious.

"Since Chikara-chan was 4, a year after Aryll was born and oto-san left!" There was a note of bitterness in Chikara's reply.

"YOU MEAN YOUR FATHER LEFT BECAUSE YOUR SISTER WAS BORN!" screeched Emily.

"Yes, he did!" snapped Chikara.

"Wow… That's terrible… Anyway, I'm hurrying as fast as I can!"

"Well, hurry faster!"

5 minutes later…

Despite Red Lions promise to hurry, which he did, the wind changed southwest, and the only way to get to Dragon Roost Island was to slowly cruise there.

A/N: When you stop moving at sea, you press "R" to cruise, a slow sail to make an accurate treasure grab. For those who didn't know…

Chikara sighed, lying face-up on Red Lions. "What did Chikara-chan tell you?" he said, watching seagulls fly in the direction of the wind.

"Not my fault we didn't leave sooner," growled Red Lions.

"Right-o! 'Tis Chikara's fault he decided to just sit on the stairs and sulk instead of finding money! He's so helpless!"

Chikara was about to push Emily overboard when a voice above called, "Nani? Chikara?" Quill came gliding by, and landed on Red Lions stern unsteadily. "Whoa, slow down! Anyway, Chikara… Why are you coming to Dragon Roost?"

Chikara gaped up at Quill. "You… You could fly…? You're a winged elf?"

Quill blinked. "Winged elves? Yes, we have wings, but…" Quill looked back at Dragon Roost Island. "You came to visit me, I reckon? Or maybe someone else?"

"Well, the King of Red Lions said that something at Dragon Roost would help Chikara-chan save Aryll…"

"King of Red Lions?" repeated Quill, looking towards where the purple haired girl was. "Oh! Hey, Red Lions! How's it been? And Chikara, who's that?"

"MY NAME!" bellowed Emily, turning Red Lions head forcefully.

"Oww!" howled Red Lions.

"My name is Emily, mister winged elf person! Don't make me angry!"

"I'll be sure not to, miss…" said Quill, raising an eyebrow.

"East!" Chikara called suddenly, and the wind blew east.

Quill looked up. "Hey, Chikara, did you do that? Or…" Quill and Red Lions exchanged glances.

Emily looked between Quill and Red Lions. "What? He just said east and the wind blew east…" Emily gasped out loud and said, "You don't suppose he is the—"

"Chikara, how did you do that!" asked Red Lions, cutting Emily off.

Chikara looked down at his feet. "Uhm… Well, Chikara heard a choir after he was absently conducting something, and a voice asked Chikara-chan which direction shall the wind blow? So Chikara decided east, so we can get there quicker!"

Red Lions stared at Chikara. He could change the wind with out the Baton of the Winds… "Absently conducting something," he said… Chikara is definitely the Wind Waker! He turned to Quill. "How about you fly ahead and tell the rest of the Rito-jin of our arrival, so they can try to help us out."

A/N: "Rito-jin" means Rito people. You add "-jin" to a name or something, like for Japanese people you'd say Nihon-jin, or American peopleAmerika-jin… Et cetera.

Quill nodded, and flew off to Dragon Roost Island.

Red Lions nodded. "Right, then! Set up the sail, we'll get there in 2 seconds!" Chikara set up the sail, and soon, they finally reached the shore of Dragon Roost!

"WHEEEEE!" cheered Emily, jumping onto the shore. "We made it!"

"Alright! Chikara-chan will go see the Rito now!" Chikara jumped out of the sailboat and was about to walk away…

"Wait, Chikara!" called Red Lions.

"What is it, Red Lions?" asked Chikara, turning back around.

"Yeah! We wanna talk to the winged elves!" whined Emily.

He suddenly had something in his mouth. "Yoh shad dat u kondct sha wins?" he asked, mouth full.

Chikara stared at Red Lions blankly. "Huh? What?"

"Wait, I know this one!" said Emily, thinking.

"Yoh shad dat u conducted sha winds whif yoh hahd?"

"Don't talk with your mouth full!" snapped Emily and Chikara.

King of Red Lions nodded, and spat out a silvery baton. "Sorry 'bout that… I said you conducted the winds with your hand?"

Chikara nodded. "Well, actually, Chikara-chan always was conducting something. And while you and Quill were talking, Chikara-chan was a bit bored, so he just conducted something he heard in a dream about a week before Chikara-chans 12th birthday."

"Cool! I can control an element, too! The shadows!" said Emily, chuckling mysteriously.

"I see… Well, Chikara, pick up that baton, because I have a new job for you!"

Chikara stared uncertainly at the baton, picked it up, and as soon as he did pick it up, Chikara could suddenly feel something entering him; something so… familiar, yet unrecognizable… "Na—Nani?"

"Chikara, my oh-so-extremely-young friend… Welcome the wind spirit now inside you, Chikara, for you are now the Wind Waker!" said Red Lions happily.

How 'bout we end it right there, eh? A small tiny cliffhanger for y'all.

Mario: Some cliffhanger.

Me: Well, how else could I end it off, huh Mario! Tell me, "Oh, Muse of General"! I was NOT asking you! I wasn't asking anyone else for that matter! I was just telling them that I'll leave them at a small cliffhanger! Sigh Anyway, thanks for reading! Keep eyes open for chapter 3, okee-doke? Good! Byee!
