Now!

Link walked across one of the many footbridges that connected the shores of Lake Hylia. The hero wiped his mouth vigorously and rubbed his tongue on the back of his hand. Navi just laughed at the blonde nearly falling out of the sky on some occasions.

"YOU SHOULDA SEEN YOUR FACE!" she squealed when she landed on Link's shoulder. "You also should have seen that coming!" she sighed, wiping a tear from her eye. "She'd been making Goo-Goo eyes at you all last night." Link blushed further as he swatted the fairy off of his shoulder sending her sailing off across the lake. After a few moments spent trying to negotiate a trip up to the top of Lake Hylia, Navi had flown back to her partner.

"Jesus man you need to control your anger." She reclaimed her place on the hero's shoulder as he prepared to be shot out of the miniature sky cannon.

"Sit inside my hat and don't come out until we arrive at the top of the cliff" said the hero ungracefully changing the subject.

"I have wings you know! I can fly."
"Not fast enough to get started as soon as possible" he retorted as he took off his hat and tried to shove the fairy inside. Navi stuck out her tongue and flew into the hat as Link placed it back onto his head. He walked into the cannon's front entrance, hoping Fyer didn't slam the door behind his as he always did. The door swung shut with tremendous force sending Link and Navi flying into the opposite wall. From inside Link's hat Navi started to tremble.

"Uh Link I wanna get of…" she whimpered a little too late. Link braced himself for the launch as the ignition device in the canon went off sending boy and fairy flying through the sky at top speed. Navi screamed as many curse words as she could think of, holding on to the hair under the boy's hat. The platform on the cliff he was to land on came into view and the hero rolled on impact. He stood removing his hat for Navi to fly around but she didn't move. Link put a hand to his head searching for Navi but he earned a bite to his finger from the disgruntled fairy.

"DO…NOT…TOUCH…ME…" she whispered into the hero's ear causing him to flinch away from her hot breath on his neck. "I NEED To calm down…"

Link shrugged and walked out the front door that lead to hyrule field ignoring the flamboyantly dressed man selling tickets to the lake bottom via gliding cuccos. Navi slowly released her death grip on Link's head as he played Epona's song on the horse call Ilia had given him. Link shuddered at the thought of his wife. She would skin him alive when he arrived in Ordon to retrieve his clawshot and iron boots. She probably would have been waiting at the gate to the village for the whole night. Link's mind wandered to Zelda as He mounted Epona and put his hat back on. When Zelda kissed him about a half hour ago, Link had realized he defiantly did not love the princess. But to shake off the embarrassment of Zelda's sudden affection he had told her he was looking for someone in the twilight realm. The hero blushed at his declaration. He could have said he was married. That would have done the exact same thing but instead he told Zelda he loved the twilight princess.

"What the hell is wrong with me?" Link thought shaking his head and disturbing Navi, who was still firmly attached to his skull. The fairy snarled at him but still refused to come out of his hat to view her surroundings. The hero could have walked into a bandit camp, gotten killed and Navi wouldn't have batted a wing. Link urged Epona into a lope, passing over the bridge in the southern-most part of hyrule field. He made his way through Faron woods, ignoring the strange man that sold oil. Suddenly Navi reached out from under Link's hat and pulled his ear to stop. The hero was painfully reminded of Midna. She had used to do that when he was in wolf form. "Link I feel the presence of strange magic" Navi said slowly as if she wasn't quite sure. "It's coming from the spring."

Nearing Ordon spring he felt a disturbance in the balance of power that coated the spirit's stones. Dismounting Epona, Link walked to the upper ledge that the Spirit Stones rested on. The hero saw a small glittering object resting in the crystal clear water. But as the boy tried to jump to the ledge to retrieve the shining item he realized the current prevented him from getting a good enough grip. Standing directly under the flow of water, Link was soaked through to the bone within seconds. Navi let out a high pitched shriek from his hat and zipped right out to fly around Epona.

"You want to know what I think of this partnership?" she said ringing the water out of one butterfly-like wing. "I think you are a fucking retard who is incapable of admitting his feelings for a girl." Link's face must have betrayed his shock for Navi smiled and continued "I think this mission had absolutely no point! Sure darkness" Navi rolled her eyes at the word "is seeping across the void but all you can think of is this girl you USED to tell the princess off!" Link began to shudder with rage. He had the unmistakable urge to sink his teeth into the fairy and rip her apart. That was not usually the path the hero would take.

"Goddesses grant me a flyswatter" he whispered as Navi continued her rant all the way through the woods to the entrance to Ordon village. The hero suddenly froze and clamped a hand around the fairy. He held his hand over her (or what he assumed to be) her mouth and shushed her. Feeling Link's concern Navi silenced herself and wiggled out of the hero's grasp. She flew above the ground to scout out the area for an enemy. Link sat hidden in a bush until Navi returned from her brief scouting.

"Link no one is here" she said, her glow stifled for stealth. "What did you stop for?"

"HER" Link said pointing. Navi turned her head to follow his finger. She saw a pretty young woman walking out the door with a small child in tow. The woman looked to the gate with unmasked anger filling her eyes. She said something to the little girl but Link was to far away to hear.

"Navi follow them" He whispered to the fairy. "Find out what Ilia's saying."

"First you tell me who she is." Navi said, crossing her arms over her chest.

Link sighed, regretting even bringing her along. "She's my wife" flinching at Navi's outburst of laughter "Shush!" He whispered desperately hoping Ilia hadn't heard "Navi be quiet! Ilia might hear yo-"

Link broke off as the leaves in the bush parted to reveal his wife and daughter looking at him strangely. Link sat with his knees drawn to his chest hiding in a bush talking with a fairy that was in hysterics. They had the right to look at him like he was crazy. But the first to recover from the shock was Midia for she launched herself at him yelling "DADDY!" the girl attached herself around her father's waist and laughed, telling him in a series of rushed words how much she had missed him. Link rose to his feet swinging his daughter onto his back and ran into the village completely avoiding talking to his wife. Once he arrived the hero was greeted by the villagers who all had gathered by the dock to enjoy the day's warmth and go swimming. Link let Midia crawl off of his back and run to join the other children. Rusl walked over with Uli and their newest daughter Sasha.

"My boy!" Rusl boomed clapping the hero on the shoulder "Off on another trip to castle town I presume?"

"Yeah" said Link, waving to Colin and his little brother Roy. "I just got back from an audience with the princess. She's sent me out to find magical artifacts that some ancient civilization left behind." Link hated to lie to his friends like that but it was better than the real reason he was running around hyrule. "I came back for some things I left behind. I defiantly didn't think I would be sent out on a mission!"

Link could feel Ilia's eyes boring into his back as he talked to villagers. Rusl laughed at his jokes and the children demanded that he played with them. It was like every other day in the village. The only thing that made Link cringe was his wife's anger radiating off of her in waves. At one point the hero thought she might attack him right then and there. Finally after about a half hour Ilia had had enough. She grabbed him by the arm and excused them. She dragged him up to the house all the while Link casting terrified glances over his shoulder. Finally she stopped in front of the house and spun around bringing her hand across his face in a vicious slap. She raised her hand again but Link grabbed her wrist. He stared into Ilia's green eyes with his sapphire ones. After a few moments Ilia broke down and fell to her knees crying. Link stood back and let her reign in her emotions before speaking.

"That was uncalled for" the hero said, not meeting her eyes.

Ilia rose to her feet and grabbed Link's hand pulling him towards her with strength that didn't match her frail looking form. Once he was facing her she grabbed the back of his head and brought their lips together violently.

"AGAIN with this shit?" Link thought as the initial shock of Ilia's sudden friendliness started to ware off. As apposed to Zelda's kiss which had been rough but respectful, Ilia did not make any attempt to restrain herself. She slid her tongue into his mouth and tried to use it to get Link to interact; she chewed his bottom lip until it started to bleed and she even started to unbutton the front of her shirt. Link's eyes widened with alarm and he slid his palms onto Ilia's shoulders in an attempt to push her off. Instead she broke the kiss and used all the force she could muster to push him into the bush on his back. Link lost all his breath when he hit the ground and he didn't have enough time to escape before Ilia had sat upon his stomach with her legs straddling him.

WARNINGNESS! KISSING IS FINE! HORNY ILIAS ARE NOT!

"Link you owe me this." She whispered into his ear sending shivers down his spine. She began to undo his belt buckle and tried to force the hero's tunic over his head while she licked the blood off of his lip. Link had had enough of this. First the princess of hyrule was forcing herself on him and now THIS? Everything in the hero's mind screamed to regain his breath and get her off of him. But his body disagreed, becoming a little more excited by the second much to Ilia's amusement.

It's safe now kiddies. Link shall not be a… perv… I guess.

Finally the blonde reclaimed his breath and forced the girl of off him. He sat up, pushing Ilia back so she eventually had to crawl off his stomach and sit facing him. Link edged away from her so they could talk.

"Ilia" He said looking round for his tunic. The only thing covering his chest now was and undershirt and his chainmail. "This is a horrible idea. First, the villagers are around the corner. They would hear us. Second, our daughter is over there and I don't want her walking in on us ever! Third…" Link sighed. "Just say it!" he thought "I'm not sure I love you anymore."

"Third?" Ilia said tears welling up in her eyes.

"Third… ah…" Link thought of the best lie he could think of. "I'll be gone for a long time on this mission. These artifacts I'm gathering are serious and I need to focus on them."

Tears fell from Ilia's eyes as she stood and whipped around to stalk over to the house. "Fine leave but don't come back!" she cried as she slammed the door behind her.

Link sat on the ground to reclaim his composure. He forced himself to calm down before grabbing his tunic and bringing it over his head. He found his belt under some leaves by a tree. When he turned them over he saw a soft blue glow.

"What the hell?" Link grabbed the fairy by one wing and lifted her into the air to dangle in front of his nose, "Navi? What in the goddesses name are you doing under there?"

"You would think I'm creepy if I told you" she said, struggling to pull her wing from Link's grasp.

"Oh shit seriously?" the hero growled at his fairy "you were sitting there watching that whole thing and you didn't even think to help me?"

"MOTHER FUCKER!" she snarled at the blonde as he shook her slightly "SHIT HEAD YOUR GONNA RIP MY WING OFF!" Link turned his back and snorted, tossing her over his shoulder into the pile of leaves she had been hiding in. "For a fairy who is the heir to a throne you sure have no problem cussing out everyone near you. Navi thanks to this 'mishap' I've been locked out of my house and I need the weapons that are in there!" the hero sat back down in the bush to look at the fairy who was massaging the wing Link had pulled. She gazed up at him with unmasked hatred spreading across her face. She rose into the air and fluttered an inch in front of his nose. She clenched her eyelids together tightly as she balled her small hands into fists. Link started to say something but never finished for Navi's eyes shot open and revealed the fairy was crying.

"I HATE YOU!" she screamed while her tiny fist connected with the hero's face. Even though she was small Navi was extremely strong. The force of her punch sent Link flying backward into the hard soil. She hovered above his face letting her hair tickle his nose. "Nothing but bad things happen around you" she said to his face. "I'm hardly 2 inches tall though once I become great fairy after my mother I will become big. When THAT happens let me tell you mister. I will not be there to help you scout for enemies or help you find magical things or heal you. Let me say this simply so you will understand. I. HATE. YOU. GET THE PICTURE?"

Navi flew off in the direction of the spirit's spring leaving the hero of twilight to lie in the dirt. Link ran a hand through his untidy hair. He sat up slowly and stared after Navi. He couldn't gather the tears without her. He couldn't repair the mirror of twilight. He couldn't…see…Midna again.

"Without her I can't see Midna again" thought Link as he stood. "I need her to help me finish this." He walked slowly through the forest to the spring where he saw the blue fairy sitting on the shore. Her glow was fully extinguished and at first Link thought she had been injured. Then the hero realized she was crying. Her legs were

Submerged in the spring's water and she held her head in her hands. Hearing Link she stifled her sobs and lifted her head to look forward. Link sighed and sat down beside her. An awkward silence spread on for the next few minutes. Finally the hero gently grabbed Navi around her waist with two fingers and lifted her into his palm. Somewhere in the back of his mind he noticed she blushed slightly as she pulled her knees to her chest. She refused to meet his sapphire eyes with her turquoise ones.

"Navi…" Link said turning her in his hand so she was facing him. "Navi you aren't glowing."

In an instant her glow had returned but it was red. Link had figured out early this meant she was mad. But in the same instant she started to laugh and glow bright yellow.

"Idiot" she said with a giggle. "My glow reflects my mood."

"No kidding" the hero teased placing the fairy on his shoulder.

"Yeah. It's weird. Let me explain. Red is angry, yellow is happy, green is excited and white is confused."

"Navi you weren't glowing just now… what does that mean?"

She sighed "Means I'm sad..."

"Navi I'm sorry I was mad at you. You didn't deserve it."

"Link I… thank you."

"So do you want to sneak in to my house to get the clawshot and iron boots or do we wait and relax?"

"Relaaax" Navi sighed leaning back. "We should go play with the village kids some more. And you daughter seems cute."

"Sounds good to me!" Link said, standing up and walking off in the direction of the village.

"Link?"

"Yea Navi?"

"…Never mind."

~~~~~~~~Navi~~~~~~~~

I don't really hate him.

I just hate the way he makes me feel.

Like I have…butterflies in my stomach.

And when he looks at me I feel like I can't fly anymore.

I guess it would be the same as humans saying they feel they can fly but I'm not applicable to that. I have wings after all.

He's so butt-headed though. When I first laid eyes on him I knew I was going to have a hard time working with him. He can't tell when a girl has affections for him. Zelda was so obvious it was almost sickening to watch her flirt and him ignore it unconsciously. I know I don't have a chance which makes it all the more frustrating. But I find myself trying desperately to get closer, to feel his tunic under my feet when I'm too tired to fly, to hide under his hat when I don't want to be seen and to smell his golden hair. He smells better than any flower in the desert. I mean… come on! But he's a total catch… and a ladies man. He has a wife leaving hints at every move, the princess of hyrule stealing kisses, girls practically tripping over themselves when we passed through hyrule field and a stupid fairy princess who didn't know what she was in for. But I could tell by the look in is eyes when he spoke of or even heard about this Twilight Princess named Midna. It was a sudden softness in his fierce sapphire blue gaze that was so unexpected it made me lose my breath. I mean… think straight Navi! Could you be any more stupid? Of coarse he has a girl in mind… it's just how life works out for you. UGH WHY COULDN'T I BE A GODDESS DAMN HEALING FAIRY? I didn't want to be royalty. I wanted to see the world! When the Great Fairy before mother stepped down there were fairy fountains scattered through out the land. She had made sure anyone who needed to be healed could come to a fountain and possibly hang on to life a little longer. But mother…she changed everything. Prior to my birth mother had taken all the fairy fountains and hid them deep within the cave of ordeals. But I heard stories from elder fairies…they told me of the times when we had been free to chose our own paths. But now we were all locked away. It was dreadful. My brothers and sisters… why could they be the only ones to lead a carefree life? All the lessons I had to go to. Many times I had tried to escape my fate by honing my skills in magic and trying to break open the door that sealed us in. Mother's paranoia suffocated me and I cried out to the heavens for some kind of blessing to penetrate those disgusting hallways. Then one day, mother began to act strangely. She second guessed herself, she broke out into random cold sweats, and she even attacked guards with her magic. When Zelda called on us she took everyone out of the cave in the blink of an eye. She talked with the princess so calmly, like nothing had happened. I only hoped everything was alright, though nothing shocked me more than when she sent me with them. Mother never even let me play with my friends for fear I would get hurt. Something must be wrong with the cave of ordeals. That's the only thing I can think of. But nothing bad could possibly happen. Mother has 50 floors of monsters guarding the main hall. The only way to open the doors is if all creatures have been destroyed and Link barley came through alive. For now I can enjoy my freedom with him. What could go wrong?
