From here on out, the points of view will be changing back and forth between Link and Maple.

Link was a young farm hand in the small town of Ordon. He had been since he was just barely ten, and his body showed it. He had light brown, almost blonde, hair and shocking blue eyes.

Link was sleeping in his bed. He could hear the faint sound of people calling his name. He stirred.

Not again. Link rolled over so that he was facing the wall.

"Come on Link! Wake up, wake up! We've got tons of things to show you!" Link threw off his covers and quickly dressed into his work clothes.

"I'm up!" He yelled so that the children outside could hear. He heard cheering outside.

Link climbed the ladder at the foot of his bed to the top floor.

His house had four floors: the basement, the main floor with the kitchen, etc., the second floor, which was just big enough for his bed and a dresser, and the top floor, which was more like a porch. The only think on the top floor was a star shaped window that overlooked his front yard.

He could see three kids standing outside his house. One girl and two brothers. The littlest of them was so small that he looked like an overgrown baby. The girl was the boss of their little group, and not related to the boys in anyway.

The girl waved at Link. Link had the feeling that she fanced him, which didn't really bother him. He waved back.

Link climbed down two ladders and walked through the front door, and climbed down another ladder before he touched ground.

"Hey Link, diddya hear?" Link shook his head. "There's a slingshot for sale at the shop!" Talo, the oldest boy, nearly screamed.

"That you have to BUY." Beth, the girl, said. She had her arms crossed and an annoyed look on her face. The youngest boy, Malo, was standing next to his brother shaking his head and rolling his eyes.

"Oh come on Beth, couldn't you just let us...borrow it for a little while?" Talo asked. Link couldn't help but laugh at this meaningless attempt.

Beth looked ready to kill. "No way! Mom will freak if I just go in there and nick it from the shelf!"

"Oh come on, please? It's not fair that you live in a shop...and all we have is a waterwheel..." Malo looked at Link and shrugged. Link turned around and walked away without anyone but Malo noticing.

Link's horse, Epona, was standing to the right of his house. A little boy named Colin was standing in front of her and stroking her face.

"You have the day off today, don't ya Link?" Colin said quietly when Link was behind him. Link nodded.

"And Epona has the day off too, huh?" Colin turned around and looked at Link with a giant smile on his face. Link smiled back at him.

"Yeah, she does." Colin went back to stroking Epona's brown face.

"Can I take care of her today?" Link nodded. "Cool...thanks Link."

Link turned around and headed into town.

The town was small, with only fourteen people living there. There was a shop, called Sera's Shop, where, apparently, there was a slingshot for sale, a waterwheel connected to Talo and Malo's house, the Mayor's house (his daughter, Ilia, was Link's best friend), and a ranch. Link worked on the ranch with a man named Fado, herding the famous Ordon goats.

Link walked into Sera's Shop to find Sera looking completely depressed.

"Oh, it's you. I'm sorry, I don't fell like selling anything today." She said without looking up at Link. "My cat has gone missing. He took the fish we were going to eat last night and I scolded him something awful. He left after I was done, and hasn't come back..." She was holding a bottle of milk and was swirling it around slowly, and was watching the milk stir.

Link could see the slingshot the kids wanted on the shelf behind her.

"Come back a little later if you want to buy anything." Link took that as his cue to leave. He nodded and left the shop.

Link looked around when he got outside. He had a lot of work to do today, and he figured that he'd better get started.

I was running as fast as I could. I could feel the sweat running down my cheeks from my floor-length hair, which had been hastily pulled back. My crème dress, which displayed the Triforce on the front, was torn at the bottom. There was a gash on my cheek and across one arm.

How did this happen? I thought to myself. I looked over my shoulder and the sight made me speed up. How can it be here?

I jumped and floated above the ground. I looked behind me once more. The black wall was closing in on me.

There was a BANG and a flash of light. I was glowing and my speed had tripled.

When the black wall was a long ways behind me, I whistled for my horse. Midnight appeared as if from no where and I landed on her back as she was still galloping.

We ran until we reached Ordona province. We stopped at the spring and I jumped off the horse as she was still trotting.

"Ordona!" I yelled.

Light filled the spring. The rocks that stood in the water glowed and seemed to erupt in strange symbols. A giant ball of light appeared above the waterfall and suddenly a giant goat made of light erupted from the glow of the rocks. The ball of light sat in the middle of the goat's rounded antlers.

"Young goddess," A mystical voice said.

"What is going on? Why is it here?" I yelled. There was a pause while the goat stared at me.

"A great evil has come forth from the shadows. Only a chosen hero can save Hyrule from the Twilight." I was speechless. "Great Princess, you must find this hero and help him banish this evil forever."

I could only stare. I eventually blinked. "Who is he?"

"Only the gods know." I nodded and bowed to the Spirit. The Spirit bowed to me and the light disappeared from the spring.

I knew what I had to do.
