Sorry that this is up a little later in the day than usual. It's almost noon over here, but I just woke up... yeah, I'm sick again. :/ Oh well, at least I still have lots of this fic already written! Also, I got a new laptop, so SCORE! ;) Let's not waste any more time, though, and just get straight to the guest review responses. First of all, to The Drone: Thanks for the praise! :D Think whatever you want about that guy in the tower, just know that, yes, it's important to the story. My favorite LoZ item is also the hookshot. Great mind think alike, don't they? ;) I especially can not wait for ALBW because AlttP was my very first video game, ever. Also, I enjoy responding to everyone's reviews, especially yours because you've reviewed pretty much everything that I've posted on this site... and, yes, I hate yaoi too. I just don't understand why if there's more than one guy, people instantly think that they should have a sex scene. Why can't they just be like these Links, who treat each other like family? It's always been confusion for me. Anyway, thanks again for reviewing every time! ^_^
Now, to Kagu the Great: Thanks for the congrats. I definitely feel you when it comes to the new pokemon games (I got X). Well, considering that Kinect will be obsolete when the Xbox one comes out, I think that a Wii U would be a very smart investment. The part about the crystal was just a reference to a collectable in SS, called the gratitude crystals. It wasn't important. Also, pikachu was too generic for me and my Vaporeon cosplay took me a few months, lol. As far as help in Link's Awakening goes, I haven't played that one in a while, so I will direct you to youtube user, Chuggaaconroy: playlist?list=PL_sYhAj0WXRNICo5YjspxqGV8TvHhxQG3
Finally, now I present to you the long awaited (at least on my end) chapters 28-30:
Chapter 28: Scrub
Well, we finally made it back to paradise. I was very happy at the fact that we were back. After all, knight Link's dimension was nowhere hear as confusing as future Link's dimension and Hyrule was in a FAR better state in knight Link's dimension than what it was in mine. Honestly, it felt as though even future Link preferred this one due to just how much less complicated and worrisome it was.
The two weeks that we spent on out way there actually had a couple of interesting things happen, this time. First of all, there was one of those things that knight Link called a 'deku' that had begun to shoot some sort of nut out of it's mouth at us. Eventually, though, knight Link used his shield to deflect one of the nuts back to it. Then, as it lay there, stunned, knight Link ran up to it and grabbed the leaves that were on the top of its head. The deku quickly recovered after that and said in a very squeaky voice:
"I'm so sorry, sir; I didn't mean it, I swear! I'm just traveling with my family..." sure enough, there were two other dekus behind it, one of them very small. "... and my son got scared because he's never seen a hylian before! I guess I was just showing off a little bit, sir. Please don't hurt me!"
At this, knight Link looked the deku straight in the eyes and let go of him. Afterwards, knight Link just walked away as the deku thanked him for letting him go. Thankfully, it petered off after a while. Knight Link looked at future Link and me, then he explained that the deku were a sort of plant-human hybrid. He also said that they were an almost strictly business-oriented type of people. The one that we had encountered was, apparently, a bit of an outcast because it hadn't offered to sell anything.
Future Link and I both listened in utter fascination. We were told a little bit about them in the past, but never this much. Heck, knight Link even told us that some of them could fly! THAT was something that nether of us were expecting to hear. In fact, our reactions actually made knight Link laugh at us, so yeah; it was pretty shocking to us. In all reality, it wouldn't have been so shocking if it was a bug-human hybrid or something like that, but I always thought that plants weren't meant to fly.
Either way, we still had to get to Hyrule Castle Town, so we kept moving on.
