Lol, yes Krystal Fox, I like that idea...
(imagines Ruto getting strangled)
Mmmhhh....lovely.
Ahem...(grabs Megaton Hammer and smashes disclaimer into pieces)
Link..once again, fell on a small island and broke through into the water.
"Oh, geez," Link bubbled from underwater. "Just sweet."
Navi luckily landed in the water and watched as the goo started to dissolve.
"Yes, freedom!"
Ruto laughed as she swam around in the water joyfully and quickly clambered up on the small island with the hole Link had made.
Navi hid a grin as she whispered in Link's ear as he bobbed up and down in the water, "Quick, take the stone! Ruto dropped it!"
Link yelped in surprise, alarming Ruto and causing her to see the stone.
"Oh, thanks, I nearly forgot about that."
She snatched it out and looked at the gleaming sapphire with pride.
Navi had an idea. Fancy talk made Ruto a bit dizzy, didn't it?
"Link....flatter her!"
Link, however, was far away from learning smart talk.
"Fine, I'll do it by myself."
Navi zipped over to Ruto.
"Oh, my er...lovely princess," Navi grimaced at what she was saying. "Um...wouldn't you like to give that ugly stone to your rescuers???"
Ruto looked dazed, but then almost immediately snapped out of it.
"No!!"
Navi bit her lip. This wasn't how things were supposed to go. She'd have to make a different approach.
"GIVE US THAT STINKIN' STONE OR WE'LL SKIN YOU ALIVE!!!"
Ruto whimpered but held the stone tight.
Navi brought up her fiercest look and improvised.
"AND WE'LL DESTROY YOUR TEDDY!"
Ruto tossed the stone at Link and Navi and swam off rapidly, crying out, "Daddy will hear this!"
Link pulled himself onto the island and plucked the floating sapphire out of the water.
Navi grinned as she floated around Link excitedly.
"Let's-"
All of a sudden, Clara's words hit her. Didn't one of her sisters live in Zora's Fountain?
"Let's go visit Clara's sister!"
Without waiting for Link to open his mouth to protest, Navi flew over to the suspicious brown rock. The fairy felt a strong scent of magic surrounding it.
"Link, bomb it!"
Link nodded and rummaged around for a bomb.
"Here's one...okay, get back, Navi!"
Navi flew back to Link and watched as the bomb soared through the air and-
BOOM!!!
The bomb exploded on contact as Navi cheered.
"Let's go in!"
Link checked his rupee pouch and nodded.
Inside the Fairy Fountain
Navi breathed in the delicous scent of magic as she floated over to the Triforce symbol on the ground.
"Okay, Link, you know what to do."
Link quickly stepped onto the symbol and played Saria's Song.
"What? C'mon, Link, play Zelda's Lullaby!"
"Oh, whoops."
The notes rang through the fountain, calling the Great Fairy.
"Who calls me, Carla?"
The Great Fairy with shimmering blue hair spotted Link and Navi.
"Your sister told me-"
"Ah...I see...Clara. Boy, you get out, your fairy and I need a little time to chat."
"Why?"
Carla looked ready to blow fire out of her mouth.
"BECAUSE I SAID SO!"
Link scurried out without another word.
"Hi," Navi squeaked.
Carla folded her arms and looked at Navi sharply, taking in her features and eyes.
"I see...you want to know what's wrong with your partner."
"Yes..." Navi mumbled.
"Well, my little fairy friend, I suggest you sit down and listen carefully to what I say."
Navi couldn't sit, so she hovered as close as she could to the Triforce symbol.
Carla seemed to sink down into the water.
"It goes like this..."
"Children of Destiny are blessed witih special powers. You probrably know that already, seeing as fairies do pay attention to us and tell it on the news...but the versions you hear are mere rumours...they are twisted versions of the truth. You see, your partner is one of the very few people that symbolize one of the three powers..."
"Power, wisdom, and courage?" Navi whispered.
"More like Disguise, Invisibility, and Strength. You see, your partner has the power of disguise."
Navi snorted. "Disguise?"
"Disguise, as changing one minute to a complete genius, then one minute later a complete idiot. They have completely different personalities, no?"
Navi nodded, absorbing all of the information.
"Well...these three powers originate from the Triforce."
"Huh??? What about power, wisdom and courage??"
"You see...that is the light Triforce. Disguise, Invisibility, and Strength, are all part of the dark Triforce, the complete opposite. Din, Farore, and Nayru....they created good races...did they not? You question why there is such bad in a world so blessed with good? Why are there monsters? Because of the Dark one. Because of the dark Triforce. A light Triforce holder will always have one of dark Triforce personalties."
"You mean that my partner is EVIL?" Navi exclaimed.
"No....your partner has split personalities...one is good, the other is bad."
"You mean..when he's a genius, he's bad?"
"Well, your partner can only go under so much strain...his two personalties are fighting for control...you notice how his changing is becoming much more often. That's why, when he becomes smart, the other personality is booted out into spirit form. Then the spirit hurts his opposite personality and all that for control."
Navi remembered how Link was punched back in Jabu-Jabu, and turned back to normal.
"Usually, the Triforce holder cannot control disguise. It takes a powerful mind. If one can control it completely, he can switch almost constantly back and forth."
"But why does he lose his memory?" Navi asked faintly, overwhelmed back all the information.
"I cannot tell you...there are things that even us Great Fairies do not know....the goddesses only gave us a small portion of their knowledge. But I will tell you this...Link is going under a dangerous transformation...the changes, growing more often is a warning that soon the evil one will take complete control...you must help him, Navi...there will be one who will tell you everything...you will meet him eventually....goodbye..."
Carla slowly started to spin around in circles as she faded away.
Navi gaped soundlessly as she just hovered there, motionless.
After a while, she floated out, not sure what to do next.
