Chapter Six:
Third Person's P.O.V.
When Logan's training started Zelda casted a time spell that made it seem as if a second was a hour, so his training could be as long as it need to be and not waste so much time with training, and worrying about food along with other needs, with Demise rising. His training lasted about one year and ninety days in the spell realm, but in the real world it was only about three days. The training was tuff on Logan, especially since his mother had a hard time allowing it to happen, because of Farore being inside him made it take longer to get a grip on it. Though she did help from time to time, she helped him get the understanding of the magic and helped him form it to obey his will, since Hylian magic has to be tamed, it would have taken longer to master it.
"It may have taken three days but it has been finally done, Logan has completed his training!" Greg said as he came into the house that belonged to Zelda with a smile with Zelda carrying a sleeping Logan.
"Yeah I did most of the training, while you attacked him out of the blue haft the time." Zelda said with an emotionless face and glared at him.
"A warrior must always be prepared for anything and everything! His father was, and he shall too." Greg said walking with big smile.
"Most of it was some built up anger that you decided to take out on him." Zelda said hardening her glare
"So . . . what'll happen?" Greg said laughing "The kid's fine isn't he?" he finished
"True, but if Artemis finds out what you did, she may be not so understanding, if you haven't noticed she's very protective of her children." Zelda said losing her glare.
"She'll never know about it, and like I said before he's fine, no harm done." Greg said as he entered the living room of the house and heard a voice that made him go pale as a sheet of paper.
"Oh really, I wouldn't find out?" The voice said sitting on the couch with Sheik and Zoe with a sickly calm voice
"Lady Artemis, it's good to see you." Zelda said bowing a little since she was still carrying Logan, but Greg was frozen in fear.
"May I take my son?" Artemis asked as Zelda brought him to her and she took him and set his head on her lap as he slept on.
"Thank you Zelda, now come." Artemis said patting the spot next to Sheik and she obliged by doing so.
Logan's P.O.V.
On a rare occasion, I had a normal sleep, this one was normal, until I was called by Farore.
"Logan, wake up." She called as I ignored her wanting to sleep more.
"Logan, it's time to wake up." She called again, but still I didn't listen, which must have made her mad, causing her to hit me.
"OW! What was that for?" I asked rubbing the spot on my head she hit.
"You wouldn't wake up." Was her reply looking away.
"What do you want? If you didn't know I was finally having a good sleep." I said annoyed.
"You and Sheik need to head out soon." Farore said facing me
"Head out where?" I asked with a raised eyebrow
"To the forest temple, deep in the woods that even your mother is wary of." She said making me confused since my mother was never really cautious about any forests before, she basically knows all of the forests like the back of her hand.
"You're joking right?" I asked laughing a bit.
"No . . . I'm not." Farore said dead serious.
"Ok but why does Sheik need to come with me; don't most heroes go in it alone?" I asked
"Not really, I and my sisters gives the hero at least one companion in his journey,If you get more, well I won't stop you, and neither will my sisters, and Sheik shall be yours. After all she is your best friend." Farore said smiling
"Yeah, I guess it'll be better that some annoying imp." I said laughing making Farore chuckle.
"I suppose so, I have contacted an old friend of your father's she'll lead you most of the way to the temple, after you spend the rest of the day resting and preparing." Farore said waving her hand in front of me which made me wake to my mother's face looking down at me which of course, surprised me, making me yelp, and fall of the couch we were on and onto the hard floor.
"Are you ok?" My mother asked as I put a thumb up indicating that I was.
"How was your training with Mom and Uncle Greg?" Sheik asked
"Good, but Greg attacked me every five seconds . . . speaking of him, where is he?" I asked looking around only to spot him in the door way leading to the hallway.
"What's wrong with him?" I asked pointing at Greg in what appeared to be a fear induced paralyzed state.
"Oh nothing besides that he froze liked that when your mother gave him a glare." Zelda said with a sickly smile that made me shiver. That smile was like my mom's when she found out I did something wrong. Greg was soon taken away to some part of the house.
"Logan get Sheik alone so I can explain to her what's going to happen." I hear Farore say in my mind and looked at Sheik.
"Hey Sheik I want to show you what I learned from Greg and your mom." I said making her face go into a confused look but only for a second before losing it and have one of understanding on it.
"Ok, let's go to the back yard." Sheik said smiling and we got up and left with both our moms giggling about something but we didn't understand what it was.
"What is it that you want to really show me?" Sheik said looking at me with serious eyes. She was defiantly a granddaughter of Athena, sharp. I was about to reply when I realized that were I was along with Sheik, the place where Farore is, my mind, well the part she controls.
"Hello children." Farore said with a smile
"Lady Farore, it's an honor to be in your presence." Sheik said bowing while we both laugh making her confused
"No need to bow, I'm not like my sisters who need bowing." She said as Sheik stood
"Why are we here, if you don't mind me asking?" Sheik asked looking at the goddess.
"I called you her to bless your weapons to kill monsters, and that you'll be helping Logan here with is quest." Farore said making Sheik's eyes bulge out of their sockets.
"Me, don't I need something special for that?" She asked pointing to herself.
"Not really, Logan doesn't really have anything special ether. Sit" Farore said making me frown as we sat on the ground in front of her.
"But doesn't he have the Triforce of Courage?" She asked still questioning herself.
"No and yes because I'm here the Triforce piece is here, the previous bearer of it is gone that's true but, the mark on his hand is just to trick others into thinking I'm not here, otherwise it would be over his heart and twice as big. It has not accepted him yet, when he shows true courage it'll accept him." Farore said
"Ok that's good to know, but what is so special about Logan and I?" Sheik asked staring at making Farore smile
"You two are two of the last five Hylians in existence, also the youngest, the purest of the five, and the right ones for the quest since all of the heroes are pure before setting out." She said making us nod
"But," She started again "You are also the weakest, most un-experienced, and naïve of the five." making us frown as she continued "Though that doesn't mean that you'll won't be able to complete this task, alike being pure, all heroes must be like that so they can learn what is needed to be learned, know what is needed to be done, and gain the experienced needed to win their battles since fighting monsters from our time is going to be hard since they are stronger, fast, bigger, meaner, smarter, and don't forget uglier." Farore said with a smirk making us laugh
"What do you wish for us to do?" I asked as I looked at her
"You Logan" Farore said turning towards me "must battle the temples head on with Power Wisdom and Courage, while you Sheik" She turned to my friend "must help him, no hero must go in it alone, they'll go insane if that's the case. I will grant all weapons that will be carried by you two to have the ability to kill monsters. Help each other, rely on each other, care for each other, believe in each other, and most importantly trust each other with your lives." Faroe said while we nodded at her.
"Good I hope you two the best." She said fading
"Farore!" We both screamed in fear she was dying
"Worry not children, I am merely leaving Logan's body, well half of my power will have to stay, but that is because Raven is here, I will have to return when my seal on Raven's prison weakens. Now Logan I have watched you grow and will continue to do so, you can do this. I know it." Farore said fully disappearing and making us go back to the real world, and it was as if we never left.
"Well that's good, now in less than day we start an awesome adventure starring us." Sheik deadpanned as Logan nodded and walked towards the house and to the leaving room.
"Mom, Miss Hyline can Sheik come spend the night with me?" I asked them as they nodded smiling like they knew something we didn't and mom flashed us to the hunter's camp, and we went to the tent and discussed about our plans.
Third Person's P.O.V.
"So how do we find this temple?" Sheik asked Logan as he thought
"We'll ask my mom about it, make it look like a 'curiosity ' question, and see if she tells us and if she does we'll look for it and then enter it." Logan said as Sheik nodded and then asked
"When do we ask?"
"We ask at night, I'll ask our moms to let you spend the night here and once it hits midnight we sneak out and head of the forest." Logan said with a nod from her.
Few hours later
The group of hunters, Logan, Artemis, and Sheik sat around the fire everyone enjoying themselves until Logan asked a question
"Mom are you scared of any forest?" He ask getting an odd look form all
"Not scared, wary, yes, it's called the Lost Woods, a forest that if you ever get lost in it, you're doom to be there forever as a monster, why?" She asked
"I was just wondering, if you were, and another question, where would that be?" He asked again
"It's close to us since it's actually near camp half blood and we are just outside of it." Artemis said become suspicious on why he wanted to know but didn't say anything.
"Thanks mom, well I'm off to bed, Sheik you coming?" Logan asked as Sheik nodded and stood and followed him towards the tent that the shared, for now.
Midnight
"Come on, hurry up!" Sheik whispered into the tent that she and Logan shared.
"I'm coming don't whisper too much, the hunters maybe asleep, but even the smallest of noise makes them wake up." Logan whispered back as he and Sheik started sneaking through the camp with the armor Logan had on before, and a Sheikah suit that Sheik's mother gave her. As they ran through the camp with stealth that hunters would envy, they didn't notice that the hunters didn't go to sleep at all.
"We follow them now?" A hunter asked
"Yes, we'll find out why Logan wanted to know where that forest was." Artemis said as they started following the two friends.
A few hours later
"We're lost aren't we?" Sheik asked as they passed a stump that they pasted three times already.
"No, it so happens that I'm not too sure were the entrance to the Lost Woods are, all mom said was that it was near camp half-blood." Logan said as he continued to walk but in a random direction.
"Face it we're lost and we haven't even gotten into the Lost Woods yet." Sheik sighed as Logan was about to defend himself as a figure jumped from above to revile a girl about there are with forest green hair, like Farore but her hair was a better green, smiled with a wave to them.
"Hiya, my name's Saria. I'm the Forest Sage; I'll be your guide through the Lost Woods!" Saria said in English but a Hylian accent.
"Oooookay, what are you? You look like a kid, aren't you too young to be a Sage?" Logan asked Saria who laughed
"No Logan, I'm actually part of the Kokiri, a race of Hylians that dwell in the forest and never age, I knew your father when he was born, I actually was considering his mother most of the time." Saria said making Logan mouth hang open.
"So are you like my grandma or something?" Logan asked while Saria laughed again.
"No, I was like his mother, that's Hestia now; I'm more like your Aunt." Saria said with a smile
"So you knew Logan's dad when he was a child, but he must have been dead for a really long time before he was reborn." Sheik said as she looked at Saria.
"Yeah he did die, but I was in charge of watching over his spirit until a suitable woman was found to bring him back to the world of the living." Saria said still smiling as she turned around and headed into the direction that her back was too and walked until she faded, making all who was there have wide eyes, but Logan snapped out of it.
"Anyways let's go! The Forest Temple a-waits!" He said as he too fades into the forest. Making Sheik sighed and followed and soon the hunters did too.
With Artemis and the hunters
"Mother, what is the Forest Temple?" Zoe asked her mother who was pale when her son said that.
"That cursed place is one of the few places that we Olympians are truly scared of; it's filled with more dangers than even Tarturus, and puzzles that Athena had trouble solving, and there at least five other places like it." Artemis said making all the hunters pale as well, since they all, besides Zoe for Logan is actually her brother, saw Logan and Sheik as their brother and sister they really didn't want them to face such a place. They all silently decided to follow them into the temple and make sure they would be alright.
Back with the others
"Come on! It's just a little farther, but first we must meet the Great Deku Tree, he will give you knowledge on what you need." Saria said as she broke into a sprint making the two and the hunters sprint too. Soon they arrived at a place with small caves with children walking around the area, circling a gigantic tree with a mustache who spoke.
"Hello Saria, It's good to see you after soon long, I've misted you and so did the rest." The Deku Tree said making all but the Korkiri who continued like it was a normal thing, stagger back in surpirse.
"I see you brought Link's son, tell me child how's your grandmother doing? It's been a few years since I last talk to her." The Deku Tree said making Logan stutter
"W-well I only met her once and I don't know much, but she seems to be happy, but also sad." Logan told the tree
"I see . . . she must have not gotten over Link's death, truth be told, I thought of him as a son as well, hearing he's gone is sad, I understand if she is still sad, she loved him very much. I enjoyed seeing them, but sadly I may never get too see him again." The Deku Tree sighed but quickly changed the subject.
"So I understand that you need to enter the forest temple, well I'll warn you that that cursed place is very dangerous, it is wise to be prepared to enter a place like that, monsters seem to be around every corner now, and everything is locked up tight. If you plan to trek into there I recommend that you meet with the Fairy Queen, if you make a pack with her she'll revive you whenever you fall in battle, she is was a good friend of your father, perhaps she'll accept a pack with the two of you." The Deku Tree said as he stopped talking.
"Ok, I guess I need to talk you to her." Saria said as she turned and walked into a cave leading under ground and came back with a beautiful woman in what it looked like her twenty's.
"So I assume you're Link's child?" She said walking up to Logan and standing before she grabbed him in a big hug.
"You look so much like your father, I was his best friend, and before I became Queen we played together a lot, I'm so happy to have met you." The Fairy Queen said as she slowly let go of Logan and looked a Sheik and smiled.
"And you must be Sheik, I also was friends with your mother, but sadly not a good as Link but friends still, I'll allow you both to make a pack with us fairies. My name is Flow, I'm happy to assist you; whenever you need us the fairies will come around and heal you I'll appoint my best fairies Navi, Tattle, and Tale to you. They will offer advice, wisdom, and their healing abilities to you." Flow said as three fairies came out one blue, another yellow, and the last purple.
"Thank you Flow, we hope to see you again." Logan and Sheik said bowing to the Fairy Queen who smiled and went back to the underground cave.
"Hello, nice to meet you! My name's Navi! I can give you great advice that'll help you." The blue fairy said
"My names Tattle and with my amzing healing skills, I'll make sure your in good health!" The yellow one said
"The names Tale, I can scout the area for you to make sure that you know what your getting into.!" The last one said who the only male of the group was.
"My name's Logan and this is my friend Sheik." Logan said making Navi glow bright.
"Oh your one of Link's children, I also assisted him before, along with Tattle another time, and" Navi said turning towards Sheik "I see your mother named you Sheik! I remember when she used that name to hide herself from Ganon back in the day." Navi said with memories flashing through her mind while Sheik nodded not too affected by the news.
"Ok let's go to the temple." Saria said walking around the giant tree and entering a maze.
"Hurry up, or you'll never find your way through!" Saria shouted as the group and the stealthy hunters ran after them and soon came face to face with a huge temple that seemed to hold a lot of challenges.
"Welcome to the Forest Temple, where it's the only temple to be made mostly out of what it's called!" Saria said like she was announcing a vacation spot. As the small group looked at what they had, and turned to each other and nodded in confidence in their eyes and walked to the temple and disappeared inside. The hunters were about to follow before . . .
"HOLD IT!" Saria shouted making the hunters turn towards her surprise that she noticed them.
"How long did you know we were here?" Artemis asked looking at Saria with a glance
"All along, I'm a sage of the forest nothing can hid from me in a forest especially this one, but I wish to say one thing." Saria said as Artemis motion her to continue
"Make sure they don't die." She said as Artemis nodded, she was Logan's mother after all she was not going to lose him again, and disappeared inside.
Thanks for reading and there is something else, I heard that a bill called SOPA is coming and going to affect us all here at FanFiction.
