Here's yet another chapter from ole Geddy for you. I'm liking the reveiws I'm getting, whether critical or not. I won't say which one pissed me off, lol. I received one comment that said that this fic was too much like some other ones. I have to say that I will agree with that one. It's very hard to make a new type of highschool drama with The Legend of Zelda in the modern word; just about everything has been done, so I tried to do a few new things. Take Link for example... I have yet to see a fic where he's a guitar player. I'm not saying it doesn't exist, but hey, I haven't seen it. I tried to throw in some new characters too, but hey, I'm barely even starting this fic. I hope enjoy the many more chapters to came. Thanx alot guys, and enjoy the show.

Chapter 9

The climate hadn't really changed too much over the past few days. Rain still lingered behind like the trailing edge of winter's chill. The air had thickened even more and cold wind shattered bones with its almost sheer icy frost. Nevertheless, it was football night. It was Friday night.

Link was as usual, bored in Physics. He was at least happy that some things never changed. It was hard to even fake being interested in this class. It was just the such the typical boring class it wasn't even funny.

Link began to wonder whether or not he was in one of those dumb high school movies. The teacher stood in front of the chalk board speaking in a monotone voice with a look on his face that showed that he was just as jaded as his students.

Scratching the side of his head, Link began to scribble down notes. When I say notes, I mean the kind of notes you would find on TABS or Sheet Music. He had not desire to take down what the teacher was saying.

He smiled a bit as a great idea for a new guitar riff splashed through his brain. He now looked very intense and interested, and the teacher picked up on this. Though Link hadn't meant to, and could have cared less, the teacher's spirit seemed to soar.

The chubby man became more jovial and excited at Link's enthusiasm. For some strange reason, this actually made all of the students interested. Link hadn't noticed this, for he was still writing down new ideas to take home and play.

The students bolted out of their seats when the bell rang nonetheless, but Link didn't move. For that fact, he hadn't even noticed he was the only one that hadn't left the room. The teacher took this as a complement.

"Link, it's good to see that you're so interested in my class," the teacher beamed at him.

"Oh, uh, sure…" Link stuttered as he stood up.

Finding this to be a rather awkward moment, he quickly hurried out of the room for lunch. Not knowing what the hell that guy was talking about, he shoved the piece of paper into his pocket. He couldn't wait to show Serj was he was cooking up on his guitar.

The other three members of his band were already in the line when he entered the cafeteria. A small grin on his face, he made his way over to them and fidgeted around I his pocket for the new idea. Mido eyed him strangely.

"Play with yourself in the bathroom Link, seriously," Mido alleged as he noticed Link's moving hand.

"You're sick man. Here, check this out," he said as he handed Serj the crumpled paper.

"Nice," he replied simply after viewing it briefly.

"That's it?" Link stuttered, almost flustered.

"Sorry, kind of pre-occupied," he apologized with a nod.

Link looked over in the direction Serj had gestured to see Ganon yet again. This time, he was sitting at a table with about seven more of his football buddies making rather rude gestures at Zelda. Sexual gestures, so be exact.

"You know, that's just the way San Demas is, dude," Kafei stated.

"So? That doesn't give him a right to let my 17 year old sister know non-verbally that he wants to go down on her!" Serj said loudly.

Link rolled his eyes and threw his hoody over his head as people stared in their direction. He kind of agreed with Kafei; Ganon was a shit head yes, but Serj was overreacting.

Lunch rolled by a little faster than they would have liked, and it was back to their classes. Most of the teachers at San Demas were known for just giving their students free days on Fridays, since just about every single one of the students were to worked up about the later game.

The rain had stopped about an hour before the game, leaving the seats wet and the night air freezing. Still, the bleachers were packed. Blankets covered the seats in order to keep the people's bottoms dry, and everyone was wearing thick clothes.

Link wore his usual jeans, a long sleeve Fender shirt with his Avenged Sevenfold hoody over it, and a black beanie. Funnily enough, he had gotten popular off football games. He was known for his Halloween Carols at the football games.

He would bring his acoustic guitar and put Halloween lyrics to his favorite songs. Whether it was Halloween or not, all the students enjoyed listening to the ridiculous lyrics. One of them went something like this:

Well, she said it's cold outside, I said it's October

When we get to the party, she sees someone else dressed like Janet McCartney

And she says "baby"

I thought I'd be the only one here

And she says "baby"

Let's have a drink and the leave I mean

Oooooooh

I'm pissed, can't believe someone else wore the same costume

Zelda got a rather good laugh at this, as well as Serj. Mido and Kafei laughed, but found it less amusing considering the fact that it wasn't the first time they had heard that. Link had several more, but I'm far too lazy to write them all out for you, sorry.

The game kicked off and as was predictable, San Demas High was top notch. San Demas was known for having the best football team in the district for the past ten years, and Coach Patterson was going to be damned if that ever changed on his watch.

San Demas won by a landslide: 63-10. As the visitor team walked off the field with their heads hung low, the guys of San Demas headed into the lockers in triumph. They all received pats on the back and quick handshakes as they walked past the bleachers where there fellow classmates sat.

Link stuck behind for a little while, since Mido and Kafei were busy discussing with Serj the whole new idea Link had come up with in second period earlier. Zelda had headed to the parking lot with Malon to leave for the party over at her house. Link began to get bored with his three band mates, who seemed to be discussing the exact thing he had been trying to tell them in the first place.

He crept off and headed for his car, leaving the three of them pondering the new idea. "Well, at least they like it," he thought to himself. His car was parked on the far side of the lot where not many other people went. Link was no huge car freak, but he sure as hell didn't want some idiot scratching it up.

Link frowned upon taking notice of Ganon in the parking lot with 5 of his pals. He could have cared less personally. They weren't bugging him at all, and he hated even looking at them anyways, much less talking to them. However, he hadn't noticed before that Zelda and Malon were caught in the middle of them. Sighing heavily, he knew that this was bound to happen.

He quickly looked around to see if his band mates were close by, but he couldn't see them anywhere. It looked as though it was going to be up to him to take care of it. Mustering up all the courage he had, he quickly stepped up to Ganon's backside just before the menacing football jock put his hand on Zelda.

"What do you think you're doing?" Link demanded in his most menacing tone.

"Oh, look who's come to join the show!" Ganon stated as he turned and faced Link; his brute squad giving Link very amused looks.

"Man, you really don't take a hint do you?"

"Look Link, you and I have had our differences, right? Let's put those to rest and you just walk away. This has nothing to do with you," Ganon growled before turning back to Zelda.

"Don't do it," Link threatened.

Ganon just laughed at him. Link knew he wasn't going to win this fight, but he had to try at least. Wrapping his arm around Ganon's neck, he forcefully hurled the brute into a nearby car. Bracing himself, he stood his ground as the other 5 jocks rushed him.

He was able to fight them for a little while, getting in a few solid punches here and there, but after a while he found himself being pummeled to a pulp. In a fit of rage, he flung two of them off of him and tackled the one closest him. With his immense strength, he lifted the jock into the air and tossed him into a nearby car, shattering the windshield. Suddenly an arm wrapped around his neck.

He knew he was finished this time, but suddenly the death grasp was lifted off him. He turned to see that Serj, Mido, and Kafei had arrived on the scene. Serj shoved the bully down onto the gravel and kicked his side. It wasn't long before the four of them managed to force the six football players to retreat to their cars.

Link's three friends hadn't suffered too many hits, but Link sure as hell had. He didn't have time to think about pain however, as a few police officers showed up. All of them quickly jumped into their cars and tore off before the police could even say a word.

Link didn't care where he was going; he was just following Serj. Kafei and Mido were behind him, while Malon and Zelda brought up the rear. As he drove off into the night, he began to notice how much pain he was in. The things he did for that girl…
