Ruki44: Ya, like hayfevor season but with colds!
Tetra: Righty-ho then...
Rukia: Why do you hate it, its just a cold though.
Ruki44: Only time i actually get sick.
Hinata: Really? Weirdo.

Tetra: No...
Ruki44: throws book at her Shut up! Nobody asked your opinoin!
I slowly opened my eyes to be greeted by the sun burning its light in my eyes. I groaned and shut them again and rolled over to my side, trying to get my sight back. I heard a groan next to me. I sat up and turned around to see Zelda slowly opening her eyes. Midna was nowhere in sight, I suppose she was in my shadow. I watched as she opened her eyes, then shutting them again, rolling around on the ground.
"The light, it burns!" she groaned. There was a laugh from my shadow.
"Wow, you guys are really early risers. The sun just rose a half an hour ago." Midna said from my shadow. Zelda groaned her eyes still shut.
"Damn early politics…" she muttered. I looked at her blankly.
"What are you talking about?" I asked confused.
"She has to get up at the crack of dawn every day for politics, like people complaining about goddesses know what, signing papers, you know, politic junk." Midna explained.
"Oh…wait a minute, how do you know this?" I asked, looking at my shadow suspiciously.
"How do you not know this?! You country hick…well grab her majesty, we're going to the Forest Temple…now." Midna commanded. I sighed and stood up, brushing myself off. I'll never understand woman and these two aren't making it any easier. I walked over to where Zelda was and bent down and started poking her.
"Come on Zelda. Get up, we're going." I said, trying to get the stubborn girl to move. She rolled over, away from me.
"Not until Mr. Sun stops burning my eyes." she declared. I stared and I heard a groan from Midna. We had to get a move on, and obviously Zelda wasn't a morning person…despite having to get up early on a regular basis. I grinned as I thought about the one time I had to get Talo and Malo to get their butts into gear. I bent down and grabbed her by the scruff of her neck and hauled her up earning a small squeak of surprise from Zelda. Since I wouldn't be able to carry her easily under my arm like I did for the two of them, I bent down and Midna, who seemed to understand what I was trying to do, pushed Zelda onto my back.
"What the hell are you two doing?!" Zelda declared grabbing tightly onto my neck as I stood up. I turned back to face her and grinned.
"Well since you aren't moving voluntarily, I moving you by force." I told her. She blushed and started stammering. She then stayed quiet for a second and with a determined glare, let go of my neck and landed on the ground and stared at me, as if to challenge me to pick her up again.
"I can walk by myself. I'm not a morning person, that's all." she said, frowning. I grinned and shrugged and Midna giggled.
"Obviously." Midna said rolling her eyes. She then became serious. "But seriously, enough stalling, let's get to the Forest Temple." she said, looking at the both of us. I raised my hands in defeat.
"Yea, yea. We're going, come on Zelda." I said, walking toward the Forest Temple gates, with Zelda in tow. We soon reached the place where the hippie was. I gave the peace sign.
"Yo! We're going to the forest temple, and I'm thinking I might need some more oil for my lantern." I told Coro. Coro however was too busy staring at Zelda.
"Dude, what's the Princess of Hyrule doing here?" Coro asked staring at Zelda with wide eyes.
"Damn it…" she muttered sighing. Coro raised his eyebrows.
"What's eating her man?" he asked me.
"She's trying to be inauspicious." I explained. Coro nodded his head.
"I see, the male clothes are a good idea, but you're going to need cut your hair to make it more convincing. I can do it for you for free if you buy a bottle of oil for 100 rupees." Coro offered. I glanced at Zelda who shrugged her shoulders in a way that said 'do what you like.'
"Ok, sold." I declared, thrusting 100 rupees into the man's hand. Coro grinned and gave me a bottle of oil. He then turned to Zelda.
"Ok Princess, your turn." he said. Zelda sighed and sat down on a stump.
"Don't worry, I won't mess up." Coro said, trying to make Zelda feel better. Zelda just grunted in reply.
"She's not a morning person." I explained to him. He nodded in understanding.
"Neither is Isa." he said, and very carefully began cutting her hair. Pretty soon it was the length of my own. "There!" Coro said triumphantly. He then gave Zelda a mirror. "Well?" he asked her. Zelda stared at her reflection then grinned.
"Yea! I'm a guy! That means no more suitors hitting on me!" she yelled out triumphantly. I smirked.
"Yea, now all you gotta worry about is gay guys and fan girls." I told her. She just waved it off.
"Yea right, they would go after you, not me." she said pleasantly. I raised my eyebrow.
"Really why is that?" I asked her.
"It's because that your cute." she told me with a straight face. I felt mine turn red.
"Eh?" I stammered, looking to Coro for help. He seemed to get the message.
"Anyways, where are you guys going again?" he butted in. Zelda's attention turned from me to Coro.
"The Forest Temple." she said grinning. Coro raised his eyebrows.
"Really now. If you are, you might want this. It's the key to the Forest Temple. Be careful, it's awfully dangerous." he said, handing Zelda a key. Zelda took and saluted him.
"Yes sir! Come on Link, adventure awaits!" she called out, running off. Coro just stared at her, and then he broke out laughing.
"It's nice to see her so energetic. I suppose being in that castle must bore her out of her mind. Listen kid, you might know this, but she is really sheltered. But unlike other princess from different lands who are the same of her, she knows it and does everything that she can to see the world. So I'm thanking you for letting her come with you." Coro said seriously. It was creepy seeing him so serious.
"Yea, ok. She seems like a little kid though." I said looking glancing at the direction that the hyper princess had run off in. Coro laughed.
"Well that's because she has a heart of one. She seems to trust you a lot, otherwise she would act like the Princess that everyone is so used to seeing. But even though she acts like, that's not her true self." Coro said sighing. I blinked.
"It isn't?" I asked. He shook his head sadly.
"No." he said as he glanced to the sky.
"Then what is?" I asked Coro curiously. The hippie shrugged.
"Dunno, nobody knows. I don't even think Princess Zelda knows…it was such a long time ago since she acted like that…I think she forgot." he said. I scratched my head.
"That's confusing…" I said, totally lost. Coro sighed.
"You're telling me…" Just then Zelda came back laughing sheepishly.
"Wrong way…" she said sheepishly, walking the other way. I smiled at Coro.
"Well, at least she's happy like this…" I laughed, and with a wave to Coro, ran after Zelda.
------------------------------------------------------------------
"Damn monkey." I grumbled darkly. Zelda killed some moblin that tried attacking the monkey.
"It's your own fault really…" she chastised me. "You weren't paying attention to your surroundings." I frowned.
"You know what, way to take my side." I pouted. Zelda just laughed and grabbed my arm, dragging me after the stealing, scheming, evil, monkey.
"Come on Link, stop being such a party pooper. We should give Mr. Monkey a chance…" she pleaded. I raised an eyebrow.
"Unless it's a cross dresser, I believe that monkey is a girl, note the bow? Anyways I guess I can trust the monkey…but only because you asked me to." I said, frowning a bit, turning away so she couldn't see my blush. Zelda was silent besides me and I looked at her by the corner of my eye. She looked up at me and smiled.
"Link?" she said sweetly. I felt the blood return to my cheeks.
"Yea?" I stammered.
"Thanks." she said. I blinked a couple of times before I remembered what she was talking about.
"No problem…" I said turning away, so she wouldn't see my blush, if she didn't already.
"Sorry to break up this tender moment you two, but that damn monkey dropped your lantern Link." Midna said floating up from my shadow and went over to Zelda, talking to her as I went to fetch my lantern. When I picked it up, I noticed something was wrong.
"Damn it!" I cried out, cutting whatever conversation they were having short.
"What is it wolf-boy?" Midna called over, using the nickname that she had so cleverly came up with.
"That good-for-nothing monkey used up all my oil!" I cried out, upset.
"Didn't you buy a bottle before we left?" Zelda called out to me confused. I stopped mid-rant and turned around, laughing sheepishly.
"Oh yea…" I said sheepishly, putting the oil in the lantern. Midna sighed, saying something about blonde idiots and Zelda, after giving her a particularly dirty glare, grinned at me.
"Well then now that's taking care of, come on….WOW, A GLOWING DOGGY!" Zelda yelled out excitedly pointing to a golden wolf.
"It's a wolf." I said plainly. Zelda just shrugged before sprinting up to it. I ran after her. "Hey wait a minute…WHAT THE HELL!" The wolf had jumped on us, going right through us, the world went…white, white! After my eyes stopped making little stars, I saw the golden wolf in front of me and Zelda was staring at it intently. The wolf turned into a skeleton which took me by surprise. I mean come on, who is gonna expect that? No one! That's who!
"Sweet." Zelda said admiringly. I stared at her.
"Stop being so non-chalant about this! Wolves don't turn into skeletons!" I cried out to her. She looked at me plainly.
"They don't turn into blonde hero's either." She stated plainly. I raised a finger and opened my mouth to say something, but I couldn't think of retort. She smirked at me, reveling in her victory.
"Are you two done yet?" the skeleton asked, a bit peeved. We both turned to face him. When it saw we were paying attention, it continued on. "I am the Hero's Spirit." It started.
"Oh so you're the Hero of Time?" Zelda asked. I stared at her.
"What makes you think this bloke is the Hero of Time?" I asked her. She started back at me.
"You know any other famous hero's?" she demanded. Once again I was lost for words.
"Wow so I have two pupils, one's a freaking genius and the other's a hero. All right, I can work with this…I think." Said the Hero of Time. I stared at her before laughing.
"Her? Genius? Are you freaking kidding me?! She thought spiders were bugs!" I barked out laughing, earning a dirty glare from Zelda. I was soon silenced by a kick in the shins from the said princess…damn…girls aren't supposed to hit that hard…
"That was her blonde moment? Man that's nothing! Zelda I knew…um…" He said before a wave of killer intent washed over the place. He coughed and abruptly changed the subject. "So I will teach you the first of seven hidden skills. It is called the ending blow. It's a finishing move on stunned enemies." He explained and showed us a move that looked like a jump attack but it was straight down into the ground. "You try on me now." He told us.
"But won't it hurt?" Zelda asked concerned. The Hero of Time gestured to himself.
"Dead much?"
"Oh yea…" I sighed. Surrounded by a blonde genius and a hero, both off their rockers. Man my life went from normal to screwed up in a little more than 24 hours.
"Ok Hero boy, you try first." The Hero of Time gestured toward me. Nodding my head I faced him and after sizing him up I attacked him quickly and stunned him. He fell to the ground and I preformed the move he showed us and the back flipped away. The Hero of Time got up.
"Good, ok Princess is next." He said gesturing toward Zelda. Zelda unsheathed her sword and grinned while she walked up to him. I raised an eyebrow and I could see the Hero of Time looking on curiously. Then when I blinked the Hero of Time was on the ground and she had done the Ending Blow. When did that happen?!
"Bloody hell! You're quick." The Hero of Time gasped as he got up. Zelda smirked.
"Those who strike first win the fight." She replied cheekily.
"Well ok, well I was supposed to give you some solemn speech…but I totally forgot what I was supposed to say…something about knowing how to fight doesn't make you a great warrior or something like that. Well look for the howling stones and something…yea…" and then we were returned back to a world but not before we heard a female voice.
"You idiot!" That must be the Hero of Time's Zelda. She sounds scary. I glanced at Zelda. Wonder if she could get like that?
"LINK AND ZELDA! EARTH TO LINK AND ZELDA!" Midna screamed. With a wolf like yelp I jumped in the air and Zelda just covered her ears.
"Stop yelling dammit!" she yelled back. Midna sighed.
"Well you spaced off. Anyways like I was saying before you zoned off there is a web in front of the door to temple. Link you can probably burn it down with your torch." She said to me.
"On it." I replied whipping out the lantern and with a wave, light up the web, and when it burned up, it showed a dark path into the temple ahead. Zelda grinned.
"All right, now our adventure begins!"
