This is chapter 7 in my first ever Fanfiction. The chapter has three different titles since it is about three different things. If you have anything you'd like to see in future chapters, then review and tell me, or give me advice on how to improve my writing. I do not own Zelda, it is rightfully owned by Nintendo.

**NOTE** The song 'Stairway to Heaven' is originally written and preformed by the rock band Led Zeppelin, I am simply just claiming that Link wrote it and they stole it.

Chapter 7; It's Just a Flesh Wound / Stairway to Heaven / Notes and Kisses

Link looked outside, and saw that they had already begun to rebuild. He noticed the base for a new part of the castle.

"What's that new part?" Link asked.

"Oh, you'll see," Zelda said. She wanted it to be a surprise.

Link stopped using Zelda for support, and began to stand on his own.

"No Link, you need to take it easy."

"It's just a flesh wound," Link replied.

Zelda just sighed. Link walked over to a grassy hill and looked at the hot afternoon field. Zelda soon joined him. Link noticed how close Zelda was to him, so he smiled and blushed.

"What?" Zelda asked.

"Oh uhh, nothing really."

Link was thinking about how Zelda's hair was so beautiful, even though it was messed up with dust and ashes caught in it.

"Hey, is my citole alright?" Link asked.

"Yeah, it is in the shack."

Link got up and went to the shack, with Zelda trying to stop him. She sighed and let him. He got back with his citole and songbook, with several handwritten original songs and many blank pages. Link found a feather and ink in the shack. They went back to the grassy hill, and Link started writing in the blank pages of the songbook.

"What are you writing?" Zelda asked.

"Well, since this seems to be a major event, I am writing a song to remember it."

"I didn't know you wrote songs…." Zelda said. "Where do you learn all of these things?"

"I have a lot of spare time, and a lot of people owe me favors so I have them teach me things."

Link began writing what appeared to be a poem in his songbook. It went:

"There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven

When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for

Ooh,
And she's buying a stairway to heaven

There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have
Two meanings

In a tree by the brook
There's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are
Misgiven

Ooh, it makes me wonder

Ooh, it makes me wonder

There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west
And my spirit is crying
For leaving

In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those
Who stand looking

Ooh, it makes me wonder

Ooh, it really makes me wonder

And it's whispered that soon
If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason

And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will
Echo with laughter

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean
For the May queen

Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change
The road you're on

And it makes me wonder

Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know
The piper's calling you to join him

Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow?
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind?

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The truth will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll

And she's buying a stairway
To heaven..."

"Link!" Zelda exclaimed. "That is beautiful!"

Link began writing a citole part for the song.

All of a sudden Zelda was having a vision of the future. She saw these people on a stage of some sort, with loud stringed instruments and strange drums. In the background, it said 'Led Zeppelin'. They were performing Link's song and taking credit for writing it!

Zelda began to yell out loud. "No you 'Led Zeppelin' fools! You didn't write that song! Linky did! LINKY DID!"

Link stared and Zelda, then said, "W…. What?"

"Oh, um sorry, visions of the future."

"Oh ok…. Anyways………. How are they doing with the rebuild?"

Zelda looked behind her. "It is going smoothly I suppose."

Link laid down on the grass, and Zelda followed his example. They fell asleep there, and slept through the rest of the afternoon,

Zelda woke up, and realized that while they were sleeping, she must have gotten closer to him and put her head on his shoulder. She was about to get up, but decided she liked his arms around her, so she pretended to be asleep.

Not too long later, Link woke up and realized he must have put his arms around her while they were sleeping. He was going to get up, but he decided he liked it that way so pretended to still be asleep.

They stayed like that for a few more hours, until The King of Hyrule send a guard out to find them. He looked down at the two cuddling, was puzzled, and woke them up anyways. Zelda and Link looked at each other, and blushed.

"The…." The guard coughed. "The King was wondering where you were." He shrugged then walked away.

Zelda and Link looked at each other for a few slow seconds. They got up to check on the rebuild and if they were allowed to go back inside the castle yet.

They said that the most important repairs had been done, so they should be able to go into the surviving rooms, which luckily was most of them. Link and Zelda went into the corridor where their rooms were in. Link put his citole in his room, and checked his cabinets to make sure everything was still there.

"I'll be right back," Link said to Zelda.

"Alright."

Link walked off. Zelda's curiosity was great, and she wanted to know what Link had in his cabinets. She walked into his room and opened is drawers. She saw his ocarina, some leather pouches, a bow, arrows, and some daggers. She saw a piece of paper underneath all of it, so she took it out and read it.

It said:

"I am sending Link out to save the world.

Signed

~Princess Zelda."

Zelda realized that it was the note she had given him seven years ago, so that he could pass through Death Mountain. She was amazed that Link had kept it all this time. Her eyes twinkled, as she kissed the note and put it back.

Just a few seconds after she got out, Link came back.

"Welcome back," Zelda said.

"Thank you. Come on, let's go outside again. I'm not tired."
