The Legend of Zelda:

Ocarina of Time:

The Skit

Note: I don't own rights to the Ocarina of Time, but for a class assignment, a book report, in fact, based on the novel version of the game, written by Jason R. Rich, I wrote and performed this skit with several friends. (I was Link of course, even though I'm a girl... go figure) It is based on the scene after Link has completed the final dungeon and comes back to the Temple of Time. I jazzed it up a bit, of course.

Characters:

Din- Goddess of Power

Farore- Goddess of Courage

Nayru- Goddess of Wisdom

Link- The great hero on a quest to save Hyrule.

Zelda- The princess of Hyrule.

Ganondorf- The evil man from the desert who comes to Hyrule to steal the Triforce, a powerful gift from the goddesses.


Farore- After traveling across the land of Hyrule, awakening the Sages, and doing other miscellaneous jobs...

Din- Link finally travels back to the Temple of Time to...

Nayru- meet the person that Rauru the Sage told him would meet him there.

(All three step back into shadows)

Link- (Walks in and looks around) Now what? There's no one here. (Heads out.)

Zelda- (Standing were Link just entered) Hello, Link. It's me, Zelda.

Link- Oh… Hi.

Zelda- I have a task for you.

Link- (Sighs) Not again. Look, Princess, I have been running around Hyrule, killing bad guys, for at least a year. I beat a giant spider, a fire-breathing dinosaur, and a huge octopus thing as a kid, not to mention getting eaten by both a talking tree and a giant fish. THEN I was stuck in the Sacred Realm for seven years just because I drew the Master Sword. On your orders, I might add. Since then, I destroyed a horse-riding phantom, a dragon, a living pool of water, a massive spectral percussionist, and twin witches. Now what do you want me to do? Run around Hyrule Field yodeling?

Farore- (Starts yodeling)

Link- Not you.

Farore- Sorry.

Zelda- OK. Back on topic. I want you to go destroy Ganondorf, once and for all.

Link- That's insane! You are crazier than I thought… ... Oh, fine. I'll save your precious kingdom. Or what's left of it.

Zelda- Thank you, Link. You are really a hero.

Link- Don't get your hopes up. I haven't even gotten inside the castle yet.

Ganondorf- (Enters) Fwa, ha, ha. After seven long years of searching, I have found the elusive princess. Come princess. (Grabs Zelda's arm.) Mr. Hero, you'll never see the princess alive again. Ha, ha, ha. (Begins dragging Princess offstage)

Zelda- Link, help me!

Link- Wait, you warty toad! (Runs offstage)

(The three goddesses step forward.)

Farore- What will happen to Link?

Nayru- What will become of the princess?

Din- Why was Ganondorf searching for the princess in the first place?

Goddesses- (In unison) You will have to read the book…

Link- (Calls from offstage) or play the game…

Goddesses- (In unison) to find out.


That bit at the end there was intended to add some suspense in order to get the kids to do either of those things. I considered taking it out but it was kind of my trademark to end my book reports like that, and I didn't want to. What'd you think? Tell me!
