It was 6.53am

Zooming past pedestrians and narrowly avoiding buildings, Link was going to be on time. He was in Castle Town and it would take approximately one minute to get to the square. He speeded down the road and smiled, waving to the angry townspeople that were yelling, cursing -and in one case waving a dead chicken- at him. He began to slow down as the Central Fountain came into view and screeched his brakes to a halt as he nearly crashed into two girls: one blonde and the other red headed.

Shit

He jumped out of his car and bent down to help up the closest girl to him, the blonde. He held out his hand which she took and shakily stood up. She turned around.

Double Shit

It was 6.53am

Zelda walked up to her friend who was beaming and waving at her. Marin was leaning against the giant fountain in Castle Towns central square. She had a book bag over one shoulder and was using her opposite hand to shade her eyes against the sun. She was sporting a tight white blouse and pastel green skirt that went perfectly with her hair. As usual she looked stunning as she brushed a loose strand of hair behind her ear.

"Hi Marin!" Zelda re-greeted her friend

"Hey! How are you this morning then?" Marin smiled

Zelda took a deep breath ready to confide in her friend all of the crap that had happened to her over the holidays when suddenly…

"Arghhhh!!!!!!!!" Marin dove down and Zelda turned around in time to see a red car rushing towards them.

As the car came closer Zelda fell over but the driver managed to swerve in time so that she was not harmed. She felt very dizzy and disorientated. She heard the driver get out of the car and walk over to her; or she assumed so as the footsteps became louder. She saw a hand at her shoulder and took it to help herself up. She stood up and turned around.

It was 6.55am

"You!" Zelda exclaimed throwing her arms up as Marin watched warily from behind.

Link rolled his eyes

Oh here we go…

"Calm down…" He said scathingly

Zelda was raging and if it were humanly possibly steam would be shooting out of her ears. "Calm down?!? You almost KILLED us!!!!!!"

Link blushed but then hid it, not well enough. "Whatever you say princess…"

"Don't call me that!" Her face was now an unflattering shade of fuchsia.

Marin stepped in between the two. "Sorry to interrupt your little lovefest but if I don't; we'll be late for school."

Zelda glanced at her watch. "Oh no! You're right!!" Zelda grabbed her friends arm and then stormed off. "You haven't heard the last of this Link Hyrule!

Link rolled his eyes for the second time.

This is all I need…

It was 7.00am

Zelda and Marin were sitting in registration whispering to each other while their teacher Miss Sheikah was calling out the register.

"Vaati Arcanyn?"

"Here."

"The nerve!! How dare he give me cheek after nearly running me over?!" Zelda spat

"Sheik Crisole?"

"Here!"

"Say it don't spray it sister!" Marin said wiping her face.

"Spit out that chewing gum Ark!"

Zelda blushed. "Sorry…..but still!"

"Ark Crystalgaze?"

Marin smiled "Yeah it was totally out of order…but still, he's hot!"

"Yuh." The boy managed to mumble

"What!?" Zelda almost fell over

"Answer properly Sheik!"

Marin rolled her eyes "I don't like him Zelda but even you have to admit he's hot!"

"Here!!"

"Yeah about as hot as liquid nitrogen!"

"Ganon Dragmire?"

Marin looked confused. "Is liquid nitrogen hot or cold?"

"Here…"

"Marin!!! Do you EVER pay attention in Chem?"

"Nabooru Gerudo?"

Marin looked at her.

"Here miss!"

"Stupid question…"

"Mido Grove?"

Marin rolled her eyes. "Anyway…"

"Here."

"This is our first day as SENIORS Zel! We should put the past behind us!"

"Saria Grove?"

Zelda huffed. "I'm not giving that tough guy wannabe asshole poser the benefit of the doubt. He's always be-

"Here…"

"-en an immature son of a-"

"Marin Koholint?"

"Here!!"

But it was then that Zelda and Marin were cut off as the very man in question made his entrance. Miss Sheikah was clearly flustered by his appearance. There was no dress code at school but Link was taking the piss. Ripped jeans are a no-no at Castle Town Academy.

"Link Hyrule I don't think that is appropri-" But she was cut off mid sentence.

"Miss S, chillax!" He took at seat at the back where Sheik, Vaati and Fado were awaiting his arrival. He was greeted by high fives and yells at the back of the room which the teacher chose to ignore, for her own good.

"Just sit down." She said exasperatedly.

It was 7.05am

Link sat down next to Sheik and glanced in Zelda's direction. She gave him a steely glare so he assumed he was still in her very bad books. Very, because it had to be said that they had never had a rosy relationship. In kindergarten Link used to run up behind her and pour wet sand over her head. This was fine in kindergarten, but when he persisted to up third grade she was a little ticked off. In revenge, Zelda had tried to prank Link by placing a bucket full of mud on the door of their classroom door awaiting Links arrival. He was usually first into the class –such a good boy in those days…well he liked getting there first so no one could steal his seat at the back of the class…but still­­– but unfortunately today Link was late. And so while Zelda and Marin were sitting in their seats awaiting Link, none other than Miss Forution walked in and was soon covered head to toe in mud. Link followed soon afterwards and knew that Zelda was responsible as Marin was currently bent over and in fits of laughter. Zelda wasn't.

As you can see Link was the better practical joker. Zelda had brains but when it came to sweet, sweet revenge, she was but a novice. Link half smiled at her in the hopes that Zelda would see that he meant no harm. She merely raised her eyebrows and shook her head before turning to Marin and exploding into a massive bitchfest where you got three chances for guessing the topic. Link decided to ignore her and turned to face Sheik.

"Hey man" Sheik greeted him with a second high five.

"Hey." Link wasn't really in the mood for conversation, all he could think about was that fact that if Zelda sued him his mother may actually explode into a million pieces but not before telling him to get a proper haircut.

Sheik clearly was in the mood for conversation because he was banging on about a girl he was banging but he didn't seem so sure of her last name.

"No matter, I have her phone number, I'm meeting her tonight again" He winked to hint at what the evenings entertainment would be. Link thought it wouldn't be very wise at this point to grab Sheik by the bandana –he always wore one– and see if he could use him as a javelin. So instead, Link just nodded and smirked. Sheik seemed happy with this response so Link shouted Vaati and Fado over. The pair grabbed their seats and shuffled to join the guys.

"Hey Link, how was your summer?" Vaati asked.

Thank God! Someone who isn't just waiting for their chance to speak.

"It was s'ok, pretty uneventful. What about you guys?" Link replied.

Fado smirked. "Well guess who just got a Hylian Puma 7DX?!"

Link, Sheik and Vaati's mouths all dropped to the floor.

"NO WAY ON THE GODESSES GREEN EARTH YOU HAVE THAT CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Sheik screamed at Fado shaking him by the shoulders.

Link personally thought Sheik was just pissed off that the limelight was shifted from him and then he looked down and realised that he himself was shaking Fado's shoulders harder than Sheik.

"WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE KEYS??!?!?!?!?!?!?" Link roared.

Vaati was shaking his head as his two friend's outbursts had caused the entire class to turn around and stare wide-eyed at the group. The only person who wasn't watching the exchange with interest was Zelda. Her arms were folded and she was trying to talk to Miss Sheikah to show that she didn't care but everyone knew that she did. Everyone wanted a Hylian Puma but a 7DX model was –there is no other way to describe it– the shit.

Fado smirked again and waved a set of keys –attached to a Cucco™ keyring– that bore the Hylian Puma logo.

Link and Sheik had almost calmed down but when Fado let them touch the keys they nearly died. They both made a break for the door to find the car when they were stopped.

"Ahem." Miss Sheikah was finally making a bid to take control.

Link and Sheik turned round, their faces surprised at the fact Miss Sheikah was going to tell them off more than anything else.

"Now that I have your attention" She began, using her 'stern' face "I believe that you two have English next so you won't be needing those." She walked over to the two of them and prised the keys from Sheiks hand.

"Nooooooooooo!" Sheik half sobbed.

Miss Sheikah merely shooed them away swinging the keys on her finger.

Zelda rolled her eyes "Lets just go to English, the sooner this day is over, the better."
