Okay, it's official. I may have the Pokemon X and Y special edition 3DS XL, but I'm going to be getting the Zelda one when it comes out with A Link Between Worlds... now I just have to find $220 to drop. -_- Anyway, I'm glad that you all really liked that battle! It seems that I just get better and better with each one (as to be expected), but to the point where I even surprise myself! Also, new laptop FTW and I was a Vaporeon for Halloween! Now, time to respond to the guest reviews! First, to the Drone: I knew that the beetle was never actually used in a battle in SS, so I tried to integrate it. However, I had a lot of trouble doing so and I ended up just sticking it into the end there. Oh well, I guess it just makes things seem that much more epic. ^.^ Also, thanks for the words of kindness regarding school. Zelda makes everything in my life better. ;)

Now, to Kagu the Great: Well, they had no idea that the beetle could carry bombs and the fact that that thing would be kind of hard to use when a giant ice sculpture is trying to crush you got in the way as well. LA should always be finished. Heck, I have played every single Zelda game out there and the only ones that I haven't beaten yet are the original and FSA. Heh, heh. I can be kind of hard for even me to remember which items they have, especially when I add one or two, so don't feel bad for forgetting about the fire arrows. :/ I guess great minds DO think alike... omg, that means that my mind is great like someone at nintendo! *fangirl scream* *sigh* To be perfectly honest, though, I'll see about the spinner. There's still quite a ways to go and who knows what could happen? Remember, I'm only about a month ahead in writing, which isn't saying much. Finally, I'm glad that you discovered that you were able to review without an account and that you finally had a reason to! ^o^

Yes, I like to respond to EVERY point that a review makes because it proves that I read the whole thing and I'm not simply dismissing any of it! ;) I love my fans too much to be doing something stupid like that! So now, let's go to the next three chapters! :D

Chapter 25: Night Shift

When we finally exited the mansion, we discovered that the sun had risen. Thankfully, though, it was still only morning because we had done all of it at night. Unfortunately, future Link looked exhausted. However, he still insisted that he could drive, so he got into the car anyway. At this, knight Link looked at me with a look that told me that he would handle it.

Afterward, while future Link's door was still open, knight Link walked up to him and asked how many days were left at that point until we had to go back. Then, knight Link simply told future Link that we should have taken a break right then and there. Especially if we had enough time. After a while of arguing, they finally came to an agreement.

We were to drive to the nearest town and rent a room at an inn for the day. There, we would pose as night shift workers and we would sleep for the day. Later, we would set out back to home. Knight Link had wanted us to rest up for the day and future Link wanted us to leave the mansion area, so it worked out just fine. Personally, I was indifferent to the argument of what to do. If any one of the three of us were truly in charge at that point, then it was future Link because we were in his dimension.

Either way, during the drive, I could've sword that future Link had almost fallen asleep. However, whenever he did, there would always be this weird vibrating that would go throughout the entire car. When I asked him about it, he pointed out what he called that 'rumble strips', which I thought were pure genius. Knight Link, however, had to have been getting better at handling car rides by that point because he had fallen asleep almost instantly. I felt very tired too, but I didn't actually fall asleep, for some reason. That was until we actually reached the nearest town, got a room, and actually tried to sleep.

I woke up to hearing future Link trying to wake knight Link up. I looked over at the clock and discovered that it was nearly midnight. So, I got up and started trying to help future Link. How the three of us were one and the same, but knight Link was a heavier sleeper, I would never know. I eventually just figured that it was a good idea to not even question it.

When we finally got him woken up, future Link claimed that we were to head off. However, before we did, future Link got us all 'fast food' as a meal. I immediately checked his drink for coffee, but I could find any at all. I then breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at me, wondering why I had been investigating his drink. Thankfully, the only explanation that I needed was the single word: coffee.

After he shook his head exasperatedly, he began to drive off. Along the way, I began wondering where we were supposed to go next. Then again, I had the feeling that his dimension's Zelda had the answer, so I tried not to think too much about it… even though I couldn't actually bring myself to stop. Before I knew it, though, we were back at future Link's place! Then, when the three of us finally got inside, future Link showed us a stash of 'junk food', as he called it, and he went to bed. I figured that he was trying to put his internal clock back in order, so I didn't bother him.

After all, he did have school in a little over twenty-four hours of that point.
