Chapter 5: Inter Quidditch and Waters

A few weeks had gone by and Link seemed to get adjusted well enough to this place. He had befriended Rutoa, but she still talked too much. Somehow, Rutoa seemed to know the ancient Hylian Language, which she said had been passed down from generation to generation in the Mizu family. Link didn't question it, why would he? He also grew a little closer to his Gryffindor mates who in turn warmed a bit to him yet still kept there distance thinking how strange he was by not talking English.

One fairly early Tuesday morning, Link awoke. He descended the spiral staircase to find much of a commotion around the message board in the common room. Most of the Gryffindors were crowding around it and shouting in delight. He looked over all the heads to see what was going on. Our little blond hero noticed a parchment in GIANT writing that said:

ATTENTION ALL GRYFFINDORS!

ALL THOSE WHO ARE ALREADY OR WANT TO BE ON THE GRYFFINDOR QUIDDITCH TEAM SHOULD COME TO THE QUIDDITCH PITCH AT 7:00 O'CLOCK TONIGHT!

ULTIMATLY POPULAR PAST EVENT OF DUELING CLUB IS NOW RE ENSTATED UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF OUR NEW DEFENSE AGAINST THE DARK ARTS TEACHER, MRS. IMPA KAGE!

OUR ANNUAL HOMEWORK PROGRAM IS NOW IN MOTION UNDER THE SUPPERVISION OF PROF. M. MCGONNAGAL, HEAD OF GRYFFINDOR HOUSE!

'What kind of sport is Quidditch?! It sounds weirder than the chicken chasing I did for Talon!' thought Link a bit freaked out. More people were gathering up and some left to go and eat breakfast. Link sighed and decided it was time for breakfast himself.

Link made his way down the tower and into a hall when he heard someone yelling and a figure running up to him.

"Ohayo gozaimas!!!" said Rutoa. Link nodded in reply. The blue-haired Hufflepuff seemed in quite a good mood for a Tuesday morning. They talked all the way until they reached the Great hall. Rutoa waved and left him to join her fellow Hufflepuff. As he turned to walk to his own table someone place a hand on Link's shoulder. Link turned around and saw a girl with beautiful blond hair, and pure blue eyes.

"Are you alright?" she asked. Link nodded and made a small but comforting smile. She smiled back and left to the Ravenclaw table. Puzzled, Link headed off to the Gryffindor table and sat next to Hermione. Link then took out his schedule. "Charms, Divination, lunch, Herbology, and Transfigurations." Ron then asked. When he got no response he pried further "What's wrong? Why are you always so depressed?"

~~That's none of your concern!~~ Link answered a bit harshly in Hylian.

Link went off to his first class, Charms. He didn't like charms very much, that little shrimpy teacher telling how to do spells. He already knew a lot of magic, such as summoning the elements of his arrows, Din's Fire, Farore's wind, and Nayru's Love. He didn't need to learn anymore or get any additional experience.

Charms, for a change, went by really fast. They only had to re-copy chapter 2 of their book. Divination was Link's least favorite course. He thought it was only a fluke, and luck. Harry and Ron saw his expression of the course and told him their thoughts on Trelawny. None of it would actually be real enough to come true. They had lunch: which was soup and chicken sandwiches. Link enjoyed his Herbology class. He never knew what so many plants could do or how many could kill him.

Linked and Rutoa both walked into the Transfiguration classroom, and stopped dead in their tracks at the door. Some Hufflepuffs weren't watching were they were going and bumped into Rutoa and Link. On each desk, there were 2 birds snowy-white pigeons. Everyone took their seats and McGonnagal started her class.

"Alright, students," she started, "Today we will be transfiguring these pigeons into flutes." she went in front of Ron, who was sitting right in front of Harry, "Alright, like this!" she waved her wand and touched the bird. "Tori no Furute!" The bird exploded in a puff of smoke and a flute was lying in its place.

The whole class started on changing their pigeons into flutes. Link didn't mind this class because Transfiguration was different...

"Tori no Furute!" Link's bird turned into a pile of smoke and the instrument that was there was....

"Mr. Kurage?" asked McGonnagal, "What is that?!"

"I- It's .................................................. TOKI NO OCARINA!" Link exclaimed.

"What?" asked Harry.

"It's called the Ocarina of Time!" everyone in that classroom gasped. Link had said his first English words. He knew no one would understand him, so he decided to answer in English anyways.

Class finished, and everyone rushed out. Everyone but Link that is. McGonnagal took a chair and put it in front of him and sat down.

"I'm sorry.." Link said slowly

"What for?" she asked

"I didn't want to worry you, but now that you know, I guess I could tell you a bit of my story. "Link told her some of his story but only about him. Taking out a very important sword, (Master Sword) and that was the sword she had taken away.

"I see.." said McGonnagal. "Would you like to talk more about it?"

Link shook his head. "Maybe another time." He said.

~*~*~*~*~*~

After supper, Link was going to go for a walk. He had to get things off his mind. In a way, he had wished he hadn't told McGonnagal about the sword, but he knew the teachers would go after him eventually. He sighed. He didn't want to tell anybody, but he thought it was for the best.

Link found himself at the Quidditch pitch, where he saw people flying on broomstick.

"INCOMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Link looked up and a brown-beige ball came soaring towards him. Link blinked and caught the ball as if he was catching his boomerang as a kid. Someone with black hair came flying his way.

"HEY! Nice catch! I'm Angelina Johnson! The Gryffindor Quidditch Captain!" she said happily. "Do you want to be our Keeper? I saw you catch the Quaffle. You seemed to catch with REAL ease."

"What? What are you talking about? I don't know anything about your weird sport!" he protested. "Why would you want a player that doesn't know how to play!" he exclaimed

"Were short a Keeper and you can catch. What's the problem? Not anyone can be on the Quidditch team and your getting a personal invite!" she answered with a bright smile still hovering near him. "Can you fly a broomstick?" Asked Angelina. Link looked at her funny. "Why would I want to? I have other means of transportation."

"Oh? Like?" she asked. Link went stiff but shook it off.

"Drop it. You don't wanna know."

"Whatever."

"Ok fine! I'll join your sport. But I don't know how to play. You'll have to teach me." He told her just so she would not ask about what he meant before.

"Deal!" she waved and flew away, Link just walked away.

~*~*~*~*~*~

"Link! Wake up!"

Link moaned. When he opened his eyes, Harry was by Link's bed shaking him. "Class starts in 20 minutes!" Link literally jumped out of bed and got dressed. There was only one problem: Link didn't how to tie up his tie. Ron did it for him, and Hermione brushed is extremely messy blond hair. Link was already for class. Link checked his schedule before he left. "Care of Magical Creatures, Defense Against the Dark Arts, lunch, and double History of Magic. He grabbed his books and ran off to Care of Magical Creatures. They arrived at Hagrid's Hut just in time. Care of Magical Creatures went by very fast. They were studying baby dragons of Upper Canada.

The Gryffindors and Slytherins eagerly into class. Everyone liked Impa's DADA classes. But this class didn't go so smoothly. After 30 minutes into the class, Impa was explaining about the defensive spell.

"Here read it and pass it around" whispered Malfoy to Pavarti, passing a note to her. He smirked as she read it and passed it to the next student. The note got to Ron Link looked over to see what it was.it wrote:

"It seems the odd foreigner has favoritism with McGonnagal.the day he starts speaking English he gets on the Quidditch team.wonder what he had to do to get that? "

It was written in Malfoy's writing and the smirking didn't make him look to innocent ether. He stood up enraged. "Who got something to say Malfoy?! Say it to my face coward!" Link yelled.

"20 points to Gryffindor!" said Impa. All the Gryffindors sighed and moaned. Link stood up. And walked towards Malfoy.

"Say that again!" said Link. Malfoy stood up and said:

"You heard me, you're going down!" and Malfoy punched Link.

"20 from Slytherin." Said Impa, "and 10 from Gryffindor."

Link was really pissed off and left class. Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle started laughing, and the Gryffindors were really upset.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

When the lunch bell ran, Link was by the Lake. 'It feels a lot like home... I wish I could go home.' Thought Link.

"We're not finished yet!" said an annoying little voice.

Link stood up and only looked at Malfoy. Malfoy shot a deathly glare to Link, and took out his wand. Link didn't move. "EXPELLIARMUS!!!" shouted Malfoy.

Link got thrown back, and slid a few meters back. Link stood back up, glaring back at Malfoy. When Link was about to summon a spell, Malfoy let out another Expelliarmus spell. Link got the full impact and got thrown back, landing into the icy waters of the lake. Students were rushing towards the lake, gasping at the sight they saw.

Link, trying to return to the surface for air, got his leg caught by something under the water. Link could not get loose. The frozen temperature of the water was too cold for Link's body to handle. He was shaking, trying to warm up his cold body. He was trying to hold his breath but the creature holding him squeezed his leg. The scaly skin of the monster caused Link to "yell out" in pain, letting out all the air from his lungs. Link REALLY needed air, and NOW! His vision fading fast, and his air even faster. His world turning black...

'Well... I guess I won't be able to go back to Hyrule after all... Sorry Zelda... I wish I could've seen you one last time...'

He fainted.
