I'm BAACK!! By the way, for all the people who didn't know who the heck Brent was, read chapter 1 again. I still need reviews for this story, and the vote for the fanfiction villain is still on. Right now, the villain suggested and voted for is for the wind sage, Vaati. Vote if you want him to be in this story, or if you want another baddie to star.

Sorry I don't update this story as often as I should; I have another story going (also about an OC who gats sucked into a Zelda game, but it's not a romance. Set in Wind Waker.) and I am kind of stressed. Also I'm having a bit of writer's block.

The vote for the additional bad guy will conclude after the Lakebed temple.

I decided to sit awhile while Link was passed out from the golden wolf, to mull over what had been revealed to me by Faron. I was an old soul, birthed by an unknown Twili woman and fathered by none other than the Sage of Water himself. It all seemed so surreal, yet right. It would explain my odd pale skin, my bright auburn hair, the fact that I got sunburned if I stepped outside for more than five minutes, and my slanted eyes. I was still confused by some things though. Why was Brent of all the stupid people in the world in my past lives? Grr, I almost forgot all about him.

Link stirred. "C-cassie?" he asked. His azure eyes blinked open.

"Come on, we need to get inside the Forest Temple. Your friends are waiting for us." I said.

Link got up and stretched. "You probably wouldn't believe this, but I saw a strange apparition who said he was the late Hero of Time! He taught me a new sword skill called the Ending Blow!"

I smiled and nodded. "At this point, I would believe anything." I looked up at the Forest Temple. It seemed to have a slight face on it, and I had a feeling it was grinning down at us. A sudden rush of past life memories came in my mind.

*flashback*

"Cassidy! I need to introduce you to someone."

I blinked as a lush forest, untainted by the outside world, swept by me as I was tugged into a large room by my hand. A child version of Link grinned up at me and motioned to a small sapling rooted in the ground.

"A tree, Link? You wanted me to meet a tree?"

"Hiya! I'm the deku tree sprout!" the sapling piped up.

I shrieked and stepped back. "Link, did that tree just talk to me?"

"Um, hello I'm right here," the sprout said, "it's not like I can't hear you. Yes, I did talk to you Cassidy."

My eyes widened. "Um, how do you know my name?"

The tree seemed to grin mischievously. "Well Link talks about you ALL the time. It gets rather annoying sometimes, so I told him to bring you down here so I could meet you myself. Let me tell you, when Link was talking about that time when he noticed your pretty eyes, I…"

Link coughed loudly, and I could feel him blushing from five feet away. My long, pointed ears turned crimson with embarrassment also.

"Oh, I'm sorry! Hee hee! I got a bit carried away there." The deku sprout said sheepishly. "I tend to babble on and on."

"Well, Cassidy and I were very happy to see you, but we have to go now." Link grabbed my arm and started dragging me away.

"Uh, yeah... See you later Deku sprout!" I said awkwardly.

The sprout grinned knowingly. "Okay. I'll see you two lovebirds later." That comment earned him a glare from Link as I was carted out of the chamber.

*end flashback*

I touched the tree gently as I passed into the temple. "Hiya deku tree sprout!" I whispered. I swear I heard a "Hiya to you too," as I turned to go farther in. I smiled and ran to catch up with Link.

"Come on; it's not all that scary!" Link shouted from across the room. I was in the final room before the boss. The way to get there was to depend on a freakishly long chain of monkeys to swing me across a bottomless pit of certain doom. I shied away as I heard a monster shriek from far down. Suddenly the long chain of monkeys grabbed me and swung me to the boss room door; I guess they were tired of my crap. I screamed in pure terror as they swung me. It had been a very long day in the temple; I was downright exhausted after following Link through all the dungeons and fighting monsters. I had acquired a new weapon; a small bracelet blessed by the same Fairy of Winds that now lives in a boomerang Link has. She decided that she would give me a little of her power, so she gave me the Breeze Bracelet. With a flick of the wrist, it would send a miniature twister in the direction I wanted it to go. It worked exactly as Link's boomerang did.

I landed with a thud as the monkeys dropped me at the opposite side. I lay there for a moment and groaned, "Ugh, we need to defeat the damn boss so I can rest."

Link chuckled and held out a hand to help me get up. I hoisted myself up, and dusted off my blue tunic. I glanced over at Link, and caught him staring at me. I rolled my eyes inwardly as he looked away as soon as he realized I caught him. The guy was a definite hopeless romantic. I went up to the door, and stared at the huge lock resting on it. The padlock had to be twice the size of my head and twenty pounds at least. Link stuck the key in and the lock shuddered and fell off. He slid the door open and we stepped inside.

The first thing I noticed was the stench. It smelled like rotten mulch. The water was a putrid violet, and rotting logs with bomblings on them rested on the surface. Suddenly, the water began to ripple and two butt ugly plant heads burst out, drooling purple saliva.

I looked around wildly, and saw the bomblings on the log. Aiming my Bracelet at them, I shot out a whirlwind and it scooped it up and returned it to me. It lit, and I threw it into a waiting plant's mouth. The bombling blew up, and the plant fell into the water with a deafening shriek. Link copied me and in no time we had the Diababa beat. Or did we?

With a roar, a different plant exploded out of the water along with the plant heads we had fought before. It opened its mouth and roared, exposing the pale yellow eyeball planted in its tongue. This time, the bomblings and logs were gone; having disappeared in the angry monster's outburst. A monkey hooted from somewhere, and we saw the butt slappin' baboon that was possessed by an evil bug from earlier. It held up a bombling proudly, and swung around. Link sent his boomerang and swiped the bombling. He lit it, and threw it into the main monster's mouth. With a muffled boom, it collapsed and its eyeball lolled out. Link whipped out his sword and slashed at it furiously. The plant emanated an earsplitting shriek and burst into a cloud of amber and brown, leaving a heart shaped container behind. A black flurry of squares remained. They turned sharply for a few moments, and then formed a sort of ancient looking artifact. I was just about to grab it, when Midna came out of nowhere and grabbed it with her third hand/hair.

"That's...what I was looking for. That's a Fused Shadow. It's what the light spirit called dark power...Do you remember what that spirit said? About how you had to match the power of the king of shadows? Could it really be so easy? Is this all there is to it? Eee hee hee! There's a total of three Fused Shadows. I think the other light spirits have the rest...

If you want to know exactly what Fused Shadows are? Well, maybe I'll tell you if you find the other two. I guess you'd better do your best to find them, huh? Eee hee hee

!So let's not waste any more time here when we could be looking for the other two...I'll get you out of here... You pick up the Heart Container that fell out of that thing." Midna said.

We both went to retrieve the heart. Link grabbed it and handed it to me. "You take it. I have enough." The heart hovered over to me, and melted into my chest. My own heart started to beat furiously, and I suddenly felt warm and fuzzy; like when you do something right. I smiled and glanced at Midna.

"Want to go outside? Are you all done here?" Midna asked, crossing her legs and giggling.

I shook my head, and stepped into the blue and black portal Midna created. I evaporated into tiny black squares and warped to the spring.

"Heroic Link and Cassandra..." Faron murmured from somewhere." Do not think that Hyrule is now saved from the spread of twilight...Leave these woods and go to the west, where you will find the land protected by the spirit Eldin. There you will find those you seek...But know that these lands lay in twilight... They are now a dark realm covered by the clouds of dusk. If you two set foot beyond the curtains of twilight, you will revert to your beast forms, so be prepared. Hero chosen by the gods and daughter of destiny, leave these woods and go west, to the land of the spirit Eldin..." his voice trailed off.

I sighed. "Well lead the way, Mr. Important Elf boy."

Link rolled his eyes and grinned. " Sure, daughter of destiny." He mocked.

"Touché." I muttered and we exited Faron Woods, while Link was smiling smugly.
