2 reviews. Really? 2?! I normally don't care. Actually, I would update if I got zero. And all you people probably know that. But a review shows that you are looking at the story, and that's the whole point an author writes sometimes. To show others their idea's!

At least, that's what I'm doing.

So...ignore the previous rant.

Anyway, today we have Link! This is sadder then the other chapters. I'm sorry. But...ya know?

Uh, I got nothing. Just read.

Kokiri Ruins

Link used his sword to cut down one thick sheet of vines that hung low over the forest floor.

"Stupid vines." He grumbled, swinging his sword again and making another hole in the curtain of vines. He pushed deeper into the woods.

"Stupid mutant spiders." He grumbled, pinning one to a tree with his sword. He sighed and took out the enchanted map that Nayru had given him. He located a tiny dot labeled 'Link'.

He was deep in the forbidden woods. Directly ahead was a small clearing labeled 'kokiri forest.' He walked on, swinging his sword absent mindedly as he stared at his dot on the map. He slashed through a particularly thick bit of undergrowth, and light shone through.

Link looked up from his map and stuffed it away. Hoping to find some survivors, he squeezed himself through. He came into a clearing.

There were huts everywhere, but they each looked empty. Some had broken and fallen onto their side. The entire place looked creepily deserted. The light was dim, as if shrouded by a curtain of gray.

"Hello?" Link called, and the only answer was his own voice echoing off the dense forest. A small stream ran through the village. Everything was too quiet.

He took a step. Dust rose, causing him to cough.

He walked to the first house and sat down on the ladder.

"Hello?" he yelled. The ladder creaked, and then snapped in two, broken by his weight. He landed on something hard, hitting his head on the ground.

"Ow! What the-"

The world went black for a second. He saw a picture of a girl with green hair, but then it was gone.

He came back into focus, not quite knowing what he had just seen.

He reached under him and pulled out a boomerang, rubbing the sore spot on his body.

"Cool." He tucked it into his pouch, and it seemed to shrink so it could fit. He stared at the deserted village, and an emotion almost like nostalgia overwhelmed him.

"It's so barren." He whispered. He put his hand on the sign that told who the house belonged to and stood up shakily.

Whoever lived here must have been young to have a boomerang. He thought, brushing some dirt and dust off the sign. I wonder…

He blew on the sign and the rubble flew away, revealing some words carved into the decaying wood.

Link stared at the sign, mouth gaping. He rubbed the sign some more, hoping that there was still more dirt and the words were messed up. Nothing changed.

Link backed away, startled. Tears pricked his eyes, but he did not know why. He didn't know why this place seemed so familiar.

Had this been the house he was supposed to live in, when Farore snatched him out of his mother's arms? Had Din destroyed the place afterword? It made sense to him. Din would do that.

Don't think like that. He told himself sternly. Farore would never do that. She would never let Din destroy Kokiri forest.
He sank to his knees, shaking.

Farore created life. She wouldn't destroy it to have a child! She wouldn't! She wouldn't take me from my mom!

Or would she?

Link's vision was blurred as he began to cry. He hadn't cried since he was ten. Not once. What was making him cry now?

Up in the clouds

"Link's crying!" Farore sobbed. "He's crying! He's crying! He's cry-y-ying!"

"It's not because he didn't have a goodbye hug, you big old baby. What would people think if they saw you? Their own goddess crying?" Din snorted.

"I c-c-can't help it!!" She wailed. Down below, it started to rain.

Back in Kokiri forest

Sweet rain fell from the sky, washing the tears off link's face. He turned his face to the sky, eyes closed. The rain washed away the dust that lay like a carpet in Kokiri woods. The whole place seemed much livelier as it cleared.

Farore told me she wasn't my mom.

Link pulled out the boomerang absentmindedly.

I wonder who was.

He threw the boomerang, and it whizzed around the huts.

Zelda and Ganondorf are so lucky. He thought, watching the boomerang twirl around a rock. He pulled out the kuyan lavender.

They just have to look at the history of royalty or guerudo tribes to find out where they originated from. But me…

The boomerang zipped back to him, and he caught it with his free hand. He pulled out a piece of the lavender put it into his mouth.

My ancestry is not kept track of. I've been a farm boy, a hylian knight, or just a guy off the street who finds the tri-force on the back of his hand.

He sent the boomerang flying again, and it felt…fun. The kuyan lavender was working. Sort of.

It's not fair.

Link watched the boomerang travel to the edge of the forest and snap back to him. He stuffed it back into his pouch.

Link stared up at his house, sucking on the flower. Vines grew over the roof and front wall, and a few hung down over the edge of the floor. He stared glumly up at it. He wished that Zelda was with him. She'd understand what this meant, or say that she read about the Kokoris in a book. She'd smile at him, or possibly hug him. Hug him… he cherished the thought.

He remembered the time when Zelda hugged him around the middle when he used the clawshot for the first time. He wound up getting them both stuck on a clump of vines that hung high in a wall. And then ganondorf left him up there for the goddesses to find him at bed time.

He'd neglected to use the clawshot ever since.

It was if a light bulb went on inside his head. He reached into his pouch and pulled out the clawshot, slightly rusty from lack of use.

He aimed at the vines on his house, and then pressed the button that released the chain. It latched on as it had done so many years ago, and pulled him onto the wooden hut.

He stood, frozen in shock as he stared inside his house. He was standing on HIS house.

He walked inside slowly, the floorboards creaking under his feet, to soon find a sleeping blue fairy that lived there ever since her true master became a hylian. The last living part of the Kokiri tribe was sleeping in link's ancestor's bed.

Aw...so sad. So sweet.

So...review. Tell me what you think. I want your honest opinon.

Honest.

I forgot to mention I don't own this stuff. So...yeah.

Review! Peace! c(:
