Well I'm back. Now all I have to do is find more time to type. I would like to thank those who have been real patient and read my stories. I would especially like to thank SirStar111 for the reviews. And even though they probably won't see it, DarkestLinkEAI's stories has inspired me as well. Now no more sappyness, on with the story!

Chapter 10: I Made A Promise

Link looked back at the sinking remains of the Ghost Ship. Link remembered making the magnificent leap across the water onto the Ghost Ship. One may wonder how you take down a ship of such size. Simple. Put all the bombs in the back of the ship. And so he did. Link ran into a few Reaplings in the hold. But once they saw him, they let him go, remembering the sharp pains in the back he gave them long ago. Now Link was making all speed to Outset. The result of the battle left Link a bloody mess. But he was in one piece. Joseph kept urging him to go down to the infirmary. But Link wouldn't have it.

"I've been delaying long enough. I don't want to spend several days asleep before seeing my child."

After what seemed like hours, they finally arrived at Outset Island. Link didn't wait for them to put the gangplank down, he dove overboard and swam all the way to shore. He ran all the way to the house and ran through the front door.

He shouted, "Hello?"

"Link?" Aryll peaked around the corner.

"How's it going?"

They embraced, "It's great. Tetra delivered the baby Mister Daddy."

"Where is she?"

Aryll took his hand and led him into the other room. Inside, he saw his grandmother and Tetra sleeping in the bed with their firstborn.

"Oh! My dear! You finally made it. It's a girl. But Tetra hasn't named her just yet."

Link nodded and walked over to the bed to see it's two occupants. He knelt down and stroked Tetra's cheek. She stirred and opened her eyes. "Link?"

He nodded.

"You look terrible."

Link looked up in the mirror. The water had washed some away, but he indeed did look pretty beat up.

"I didn't feel like cleaning up."

Tetra giggled and handed something up to Link. He held it gently and rocked it a little. The little chubby face of his daughter. Link almost came to tears at the sight in his arms. Tetra nodded at Aryll and Grandma and they left the room to leave the new family in peace.

"Have you thought of any names?" Link asked.

"Not really, how about you?"

"I think that because of your heritage and tradition, Zelda should be her first name."

"Your right but what else?"

"I got it, Zelda Elizabeth Hyrule."

"I love it. And you." She smiled.

Link smiled. "I love you too."

Tetra smiled and fell asleep. Link couldn't blame her. She's been through a lot. He set little Zelda down next to Tetra and walked out of the room. He left to get cleaned up and rest himself. They had one last big journey to make.

A few hours later…

Link was exhausted. After he cleaned himself up, he went out to greet everyone. They congratulated him for his child and journey, and he told them of the plans how the journey will need to be made. Afterwards, Link fell asleep on the couch. He hadn't slept since the nightmare he had 2 days ago. He dreamt again of New Hyrule. He saw the beast and the strange light fighting again. Only this time, when the beast looked at him, the dream didn't end. The beast charged him, and Link charged back, with all fours. Link was a wolf again. Link leaped onto the beast's back and began biting away. He fell off and changed into a human again. Drawing his sword, he ran headlong into the beast, and leaped for the finishing strike. Then he awoke. Link felt a strange wait on his stomach. He opened his eyes more and saw his daughter sprawled out on him while Tetra was laughing and holding a pictobox.

"You two look so cute sleeping together!"

Link just raised an eyebrow at Tetra, and then he lifted his girl off him and got up. Link took Zelda to the other room and set her in the crib. Link had wanted to build one himself, but time didn't permit, so Aryll and Grandma bought one. Link walked back into the living room to see Tetra and Aryll starting dinner.

"I have to admit, it's good to see you up and about again Tetra." said Link.

She replied, "Feels good too."

Link smiled, "At least you won't be as bossy now that you had the baby."

"Hey!"

Link laughed, but then he saw Tetra's face then decided he better make a run for it. He made it to the ladder, but not before Tetra had a hold of him. Tetra once again had that signature look on her face. But Link smiled his own. He climbed the ladder with Tetra still clinging to him. When he got up he spun Tetra off of him but ten he ran into the wall. Dead end.

"You're mine now Link!"

"Not today."

He ran towards Tetra. She ducked and he leapfrogged over her and ran towards the railing.

"LINK!"

He just grinned and turned around, then back flipped over the railing and landed neatly. He looked up and saw Tetra climbing down the stairs. When she got to the bottom, Link was gone. She looked around the house and found him standing next to the baby crib looking at little Zelda. Tetra walked up to Link and put her arms around him.

"Now not only do I have to take care of you," Link said, "but Zelda now as well."

"And I'm sure you will."

He turned to her, "You can count on it."

7 months later…

Link was standing on the wall of Windfall Island. He was watching the last of the ships load up with immigrants. Tetra stood next to him holding their daughter, Zelda Elizabeth.

Tetra said, "I can't believe we're finally leaving for good. But it makes me sad at the same time."

Link replied, "Yeah I know. This has been our home our whole lives. Now it won't be."

Soon they would board the Red Wolfos and lead the fleet to New Hyrule and build a new kingdom. Link had reunited with some old friends from the Ocean King's world. Now all prepared for one final journey. Humans, Gorons, Anouki, and others were ready. However, the Ritos were not going. Link talked with Komali and his father. They said that they shouldn't leave for in case something else happened to the Great Sea. Soon they parted and said farewell to the Great Sea forever. For now, Link and Tetra's part in this adventure has finally come to a close. For now.

And that's the end of it. No the story isn't over. And I hope you all liked the name. It sounded like it fit to me. I'll try to keep updating soon. For now R&R!
